You mousse make this chocolate mousse. 🤤🍫 #ontheblog . . . “You continuously ask yourself if you will succeed, make yourself proud, and reach your potential.” . . . I wrote those words to myself exactly a year ago. Back then, my idea of success meant something completely different than what it means today. Last year, I was worried about so many different things—and now here I am. I’ve accomplished so much. I’ve grown so much. I’ve learned so much. However, I haven’t sat for a second to think about how far I’ve come. The things that worried me a year ago no longer lurk in my head—they’re in the past. Today, other things lurk in my head. One year ago, I was worried about something. One year later, I’m worried about something else. When will this worrying stop? At this point, I should just accept that I’m a constant worrier, I guess. Looking back, though, it’s crazy to think a lot of the experiences I’ve had didn’t exist before. Life moves so fast. Time moves so fast. Aug. 2018 Hira would be shocked about all the things Aug. 2019 Hira has done, Allhumdullilah. What will Aug. 2020 Hira do? . . . P.S. If you’re obsessed with personal growth, like me, (why do I sound like a self-help book? Omg.) write yourself a letter and see how far you’ve come. I use futureme.org #theyshouldsponsorme
o n the b l o g • When your oven is broken, the heat is intense, and you’re finally home for the summer, what do you do? You make chocolate covered strawberry ice cream. 🍫🍓🤤 NEW recipe on the blog! 🥰
t h e e n d • Just like that it’s over. They say all good things come to an end, but I didn’t realize how fast it would end. It feels like Singapore became my temporary home yesterday, but now I’m boarding a plane back to the states. I remember when I started planning my abroad experience, I was terrified. Terrified of all of the unknown. As I look back to my very first day to my very last, the biggest change I see in myself is that I have gained a sense of adventure. I want to continue to explore the world, try new things, challenge myself, take risks, make mistakes, and invite the unknown. My pre-abroad self was content in her corner. She enjoyed planning every detail and would become intensely nervous when things didn’t follow the schedule. My post-abroad self still enjoys planning, but she is more flexible. She chooses to try that new food or walk in that random direction because though she doesn’t know what she will encounter—she is optimistic that whatever it is it will be positive, insha’Allah. I hope you enjoyed seeing Singapore through my eyes; it has truly been a dream, Allhumdullilah. #hiraWILLstoptalkingaboutstudyingabroad #butshedoesntwantto #itmakeshersad #texashereicome #hirastillloveshashtags #somethingsneverchange
s i m p l i c i t y • The best moments can be created in the simplest ways: sitting barefoot on the grass; the lush, green blades touching your toes. Eating watermelon; the cold juice dripping down your cheeks. Watching the sunset; the colors melting into the sky almost too perfectly—a sunset picnic with the sweetest friends. Simple items come together to make the most beautiful memories. #willhirastoptalkingaboutstudyingabroad
