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!

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 ...

There's always more to the story.

  Quite often, I observe a lot of people struggling to achieve something great, something that will change the way they live their normal ordinary lives, something that will change the way others think about them. Usually, the outcomes vary but it always ends up benefitting them in ways they couldn't have imagined.   These days, the idea of success is based on how huge the outcome is in no relevance to the input. Most of us assume that we're only successful if we've achieved what we've been working so hard for but it's not all about the end result. Every step we take towards something we're passionate about, big or small is an achievement. It could be something as little as getting out of bed when you thought you couldn't or as big as accomplishing your monthly or yearly goals.   Often times, it becomes a task to even consider the small failures as something that help build our success story because we're convinced that success has to be this pictur...

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...
