Nature photography has got to be my favorite hobby!

Have you ever met someone who randomly stops in the middle of a busy street just to take pictures of a pretty sunset? Or maybe someone who constantly makes videos of fluffy clouds and has a specific album for it? Well if you don’t know of someone who does that, you do now!

I don’t remember when or how it all started but I’m glad it did. Photography can become an addiction once you realize how beautiful nature is!

About a year ago, I went on a trip to Malaysia. When people asked me what I loved about the place, the first thing that popped into my mind was nature. The greenery, breathtaking sunsets, and most importantly the fluffy clouds you get to see every day!

I think I spent the majority of that trip clinging on to my phone and power bank! I still remember, the first day we went sightseeing was the day I knew I’d love to call this place home.

There’s something so therapeutic about being connected to nature, the way it clears your mind, recharging you mentally and physically. Like, how on a stressful day we sometimes look out the window on to a natural view just to clear our mind.

I’ve noticed how my mood usually depends on the places I visit, I tend to feel joyful in places that are surrounded by greenery. Being able to breathe the fresh air somehow puts everything into place, it has the power to make you feel alive...literally.

And so I wanted to share some of my favorite pictures from that trip in this post! Maybe reliving those days through pictures helps me recollect those precious moments!

This is one of the islands I visited in Malaysia called Langkawi. The turquoise sea and the beautiful greenery honestly look like a painting!
I never knew how cable cars could frighten the life out of you yet soothe your mind all at once!

I've always dreamt of having breakfast with a view and it was perfect, except for the fact that my tea had gotten cold after the dozen pictures I took, but it was worth it!

And lastly this view! I actually couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this place! It looked unreal. The fresh breeze and the warm sunlight really did feel therapeutic!

Nature really is breathtaking!

Getting to know me!✨

Hey, this is my very first blog post and the last time I felt this much pressure was probably during my Alevel board exams! So to begin with I would love to introduce myself, I'm a regular 17year old who wants to stay anonymous for the time being. I'm in my last year of Alevels so that means alot of big changes are coming my way! The thought of graduating actually feels unreal. I still remember the time I used to look at all the seniors graduating and think to myself "it's probably gonna take ages to get there and it looks like so much work" but now here I am graduating in just a few months! Time flies when you're busy worrying about why time isn't flying fast enough haha! I also love being sorrounded by nature! I can't begin to tell you how many times I've stopped the most important work I'm doing just to stare at fluffy clouds and pretty sunsets! I feel nature really connects humans to the beautiful big world we live in and sets ...

A "not so inspiring" blog post!

So I've had some trouble thinking of topics to blog about and I thought why not talk about exactly that. When I first started writing, I had this idea in my head that the posts I write should always have an aim and should always be up to the level but as the days passed I realized it's not always going to be that way. Blogging shouldn't always have to be focused on talking about topics that need to be heard by the majority. Honestly, sometimes it can be as simple as "How my day was" or " How I completed a task that I didn't feel like completing". In my opinion, blogging is basically journalling that's open to the public. Don't you think? We express our emotions by simply talking about them and receive feedback that usually goes something like "I can totally relate to this" which is what motivates me to continue writing! There's something therapeutic about writing, even if it's the most random of topics. I never ...

The right time.

Back in September, I met my neighbors for the first time, and instantly felt a connection with them! I remember it was a warm Wednesday afternoon when a few ladies from my neighborhood came over at our place for tea. I had school that morning and still remember how I wasn't too thrilled about meeting them because of the crazy amount of schoolwork I had to complete. Also, the fact that I was sleep deprived didn't help either. However, I'm glad my neighbors came over because I met 2 girls who're around my age and let's just say we became good friends by the end of the gathering. That was the beginning of our most regular and spontaneous hangouts. The point of this short story is that good things happen when we least expect it but certainly need the most. We might think that the situation we're facing isn't for the better or maybe isn't happening at the right time but in reality, everything that happens to us happens for a reason and the timi...
