how to make a happy start of your day, 2 easy steps!

Since it’s April already, but it still doesn’t feel like spring! People in Indiana need to do this. For the sake of their mental health. Just saying!

My plans for spring break?

1. Cleaning my Apartment.

2. Visiting Paris for free.

3. Thinking about visiting Lama after seeing her photos at the beach. hmmmm?

That’s all for now!

we’ll see how it goes.

Thanks for the link Amer!

GO COLTS!

last week, early in the morning, on my way to school, everyone was wearing white and blue jerseys. I didn’t know what was it all about. Until, thanks to my two football fanatic friends at Herron Susana and Brandon S. I learned it was Monday night special game and Indianapolis Colts where playing against Miami Dolphins. Of course, i didn’t know what they were talking about at first, for i know nothing about American football except that the name of that sport didn’t make sense to me. So Susana, Brandon, Terri and I went out to watch the game, before the game started and during the TV commercials they taught me the rules of football, scoring and the names of the Colts players.
it was fun!
The Colts defeated the dolphins 27-23 in the last minutes thanks to Garcon (number 85).

in the spirit of Eid

I got many questions from my friends at school on why i fast, how we do it, what’s the purpose behind it… etc.
and because Eid is no Eid without candy, i thought it would be nice to share with them the festive atmosphere and the happiness of Eid with some little treats since they are interested and curious to know more :)
we’ll be talking more about it next Friday in the TGIF at school.
i’m so excited about it!

the first Eid away from home…

Thanks to my friend Terri, it was such a great day!
We went out for brunch at a cute cafe called Patachou downtown Indianapolis. along with their perfect sweet ginger & peach tea, we had a huge yummy piece of chocolate cake for dessert that lasted for 2 more days in my refrigerator. It was even more delicious when i added a little bit of their orange marmalade jam.
A super delicious breakfast, a super cute place with super nice company and lots of sweets! Eid wouldn’t be any more perfect. Hope you enjoyed your Eid as much as i did or more and may ALLAH bestow blessings in all you do and fill your life with peace, joy and prosperity in every day of your life.
