A charity thing!


   We're always taught about the importance of charity, how even the smallest of donations can make a difference in someone's life. That's where the idea of a bake sale popped in, and since it's our last year, we thought it would be a memorable and beneficial act!

  Once our teachers were on board with the plan that's when we started the discussions. Our aim was to not only make it successful but also an enjoyable experience! From planning out attractive props to figuring out which baked goods sell the most, we paired up into small groups to help out with all the baking!
 
  I paired up with 3 of my friends and we agreed on baking mini cupcakes and cookies! To be honest, we were initially overwhelmed with the idea of baking 200 cupcakes and cookies that not only looked eye-catching but also tasted delicious! However, we did a pretty decent job of getting them all done.

  6 hours and a lot of batters and chocolate tasting later, we successfully baked a good amount of desirable cupcakes and cookies!
  Our bake sale turned out to be a success and we received a lot of positive comments from everyone which made us feel appreciated!
 
  I had to share the pictures so I'm not the only drooling over them!

Life as we know it.

 The term YOLO sounds so simple yet so particularly deep. Sure, we live only once but we also experience each day once which sounds bizarre considering we live every day in the same pattern.  Every day that we live, every minute that passes by never comes back almost like we’ll never relive today again even if tomorrow feels the same!   This makes me wonder how a small improvement to a 24 hour day can change the way we live it. I sometimes find myself pondering life. How it’s the perfect balance of consistency and inconsistency, how one decision made today can completely alter the route of your life the next day. It’s the perception of realizing that there are so many people in this world who we’ll never know, who will never have any impact on us or whose life we’ll never be a part of.   It’s the notion that no matter how slow or fast time flies, it’s always somehow moving forward and never stationary. It’s the awareness that happiness can be attained if we’r...

Stop trying to reach other people’s expectations.

  I consider myself to be an observant person and quite recently I started noticing how some people put in so much effort trying to please others that they often forget who they are in the process.   I’ve had a few friendships in the past where I used to do everything to keep that person in my life, to the point where I’d stop caring about my own feelings and some people took that as an opportunity to mold me into the person they wanted me to be. Granted, I was a kid back then...still am but I never thought it would actually have an effect on me until now.   It’s necessary to put in your effort to make friendships work but honestly, if you don’t see those efforts being reciprocated and appreciated, then it’s not long before everything falls apart.   I have a friend who recently had a fall out with someone she considered her best friend. And initially, everything felt okay but as the years passed she began to realize how it was always her constant efforts that ...

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 ...
