It is so hard to survive the night with AC. One moment you feel that temperature is unbearably high so you turn on the AC and boom! you fall asleep. Until, you start feeling so cold that you have to get up again and turn it off.

Counting my days till I go to Pakistan. I can’t wait to meet my family, enjoy the food of my favourite restaurants and have lots of chit chat with my mother.
It feels so good and comforting when I keep grains and water for thirsty and hungry pigeons on my balcony. I can literally feel that Allah has been pleased.
Sometimes you don’t get what you expect. Rather, things go in a direction which is extreme opposite of what you thought. But we realise it later on, that what happened was a blessing in disguise. Because God is the best planner. He knows everything and we know nothing. Sweet dreams everyone. Good night
Cheese buns are my new favourite these days. But I need to stay low key with this obsession or else I will soon get over this obsession.
Does anyone has any idea that if two people having access to the same internet/ same IP address use read cash, will it have any effect on their tipping?
Although I am scared of seas and rivers yet I have a strong desire of scuba diving. I want to explore sea life and want to have an encounter with sharks.
Journaling stuff & stationary Since childhood I am way too much into stationary. I love collecting stationary and journaling stuff. I have gathered a huge variety of this stuff. Although I use them occasionally, as I am not a student anymore and I might not use it in future as well. But I still like collecting this stuff. Or my children might inherit my stationary in future. I remember whenever my mother wanted me to listen to her she would promise me to buy me colour…
Setting up my toddler’s place with teddy bears and some cute wall decor. I will show the results once done.
Enjoying late night movie with a bowl of salted nuts and my all time favourite galaxy smooth dark chocolate
I have noticed that people of this generation have zero or very low patience level. Not everyone but majority. The other day I accidentally bumped into a lady and the way she looked at me felt like she’s going to kill me. We don’t even give the margin of a tiny humanly mistake to others.
I don’t know what is this obsession with instagram. I pick my phone to do something productive and end up wasting an hour or two scrolling down my instagram feed.
I miss waking up early in the morning. I have just woken up so Good Morning. May all of us have a wonderful day ahead
Lunar Eclipse 2025 I go for walk daily at night around 10 pm. The place where I walk is usually quite empty except for the people passing by. Today when I reached my spot, it was shockingly crowded. Everyone was holding phone and clicking something on the sky. When I got closer, I saw moon which was all red and shadowy today. It was a lunar eclipse in many parts of the world. Almost everyone from my building was out to see the BLOOD MOON today. Such happenings, reflect the…
Pancakes & Pizza Today out of nowhere I had such a strong pancake craving that I couldn’t resist making them. So I took out a pancake recipe video from youtube and made them. Initially, one or two didn’t turn out the way I expected. But rest of them were really delicious. Then at night, I ordered pizza from pizza hut. It was quite non traditional kind of rectangular long pizza with different flavoured portions.
Watching my toddler brush her hair, say little words and jump on her father’s back while he prays are the cutest things I witness throughout the day.
Lately I have been using Bukhoor instead of room air freshener. First of all it is made from oud wood, rose or any other naturally occurring fragrance substance. Secondly, it smells amazing and is long lasting.
Some days are really heavy on heart when you are far away from your parents. You so want to hug them but you can’t. The time you spend with your parents is the most precious time. Value that time and don’t take it for granted. You’ll realise it once you are miles apart from them.
I am planing on getting my toddlers hair cut today. Her front hair fringes are constantly getting into her eyes due to which her eyes are teary all the time.
It’s Friday today. I have lots of chores to do. But first thing first, I am going to pray. Then I will start with breakfast and house cleaning. It’s going to be a long day.
I went to a park today with my daughter. She gets really bored at home. Although it was mentioned there that only 6 to 12 years old are allowed to ride the swings but the child inside me couldn’t resist. So I rode those swings too & enjoyed my time there with my daughter.
When you become mother, everything is about your children then. I come here, try to write a post and all I can think of writing is about my baby girl
One thing that keeps you anxiously waiting is the arrival of your order. I have ordered few things from Temu and can’t wait for them to be delivered.
I got lucky today A few days back we went to a super market to do some shopping. As we finished shopping and were about to step out, a person holding a voucher came and asked us to fill it out. As you all know, summer vacations are over and students are back to school, so it was a voucher from some educational academy. Anyways, we filled it up and registered ourselves for that prize and literally when we came home back, we forgot about that. Today we got a call from them,…
So today a new member to our family has been added. A cat which by breed is munchkin. I am so excited to watch my daughter play with her as she is super obsessed with cats. I guess every child is, at this age.
Thinking of watching Harry Potter series again. Some of you might laugh as it is not something grownups would watch. But I love Harry Potter and all its magical vibes. I have collected some of its decoration items as well.
I have wasted 1 hour scrolling down my instagram feed as always. Now I feel like sleeping. Good night every one.
When you put something on stove on low flame thinking food will be cooked by the time you return after doing other chores. But instead you get to witness smoke coming out of cooking pan. That’s what has happened with me today.
Whenever it seems like summers are coming to an end, suddenly hot weather takes its toll and proves us wrong. Two days back weather was so pleasant that we were going to the park every day. But yesterday stepping out of the house felt like we’re going to melt. I am praying for this unbearable weather to end soon.
Have you guys tried Lays chips in paratha? Today I made myself a paratha in breakfast, spread some cheese on it, placed an omelette and then sprinkled some crushed Lays on top, rolled the paratha and believe me , it was so delicious.
There are always somedays when you feel lethargic and lazy for no apparent reasons. Today is that day. All I want to do right now is get into bed and take a long nap. But obviously I can’t afford it as I have to prepare my toddler’s next meal and then make tea for myself.
I have been thinking for a long time to start work out to shed some kgs but I can’t find the right motivation to do so. I started jogging few days back but left that too. I wonder how people keep themselves consistent.
People at my house are getting cranky, for obvious reasons (Pakistan is losing the game). I wonder how can someone be so fanatic about just a cricket match. Thank God I have no interest in cricket.
I am so hungry right now and all I can think of eating is tikka biryani from Red Apple. First thing I am going to eat is this biryani as soon as I land in Pakistan.
Today I am making Chicken & potato cutlets for my toddler. I hope she will like it. Instead of giving biscuits , chips and other junk I think it’s better to give such snacks which are nutritious and tasty.
So my parents and rest of the family are moving to a new house. I am really upset for leaving that house as I have spent my entire life there. It’s so hard to let go of the things which are so dear to us. But sometimes we are helpless we have to do things that we don’t want to. This is life.
I like the mess my toddler creates in the room with her toys. Although I like everything to be organised , even my grocery trolley is so organised that my mother laughs at me and says WHO ORGANIZES TROLLEY STUFF? But I like my baby’s toys scattered in my room
Finally I have tried the famous Dubai Pistachio Kunafah Chocolate. I must say the hype was worth it. It is one of the best chocolates I have tasted.
Arabs are so fond of tea but their tea is not OUR CUP OF TEA. They make it so strong that it reaches the level of “bitterness”. I haven’t found here a single place here where I can get my type of tea.
I don’t know why but in my dreams I always find myself in my school. I never see my college, University or academy. Similarly I always dream of my childhood house not the house where I live now. I think the places where you have spent a lot of time specially your childhood, those places never fade in memories. They are always found in our subconscious.
Everyone at my house is heartbroken as Pakistan lost the match. I am also a bit sad. But I think it’s fine after all it was just a match. They beat us in the playing field and we beat them outside.
I have got flu and sore throat. One person in the house gets sick and this virus jumps on to everybody. No matter how much you try to keep yourself safe, this virus gets you anyway.
Right now I am playing with my daughter’s blocks. I watch cocomelon with more interest than my daughter. What has gotten into me?
