This Blog Will Never Be Popular- And I Don’t Really Care

A short while ago, I wrote a post expressing my frustration at how the blogging scene in Lebanon has really taken a turn for the worst, with the so-called influencers dominating the scene with their hyper-stylized photos and their horrible take on the English language. Of course, the content is abysmal to say the least….

Bloggers, You’re Doing It Wrong

You may have noticed that I’ve taken extended hiatuses recently. I’ve left this blog without new content for months on end, despite having plenty to share. The main reason? I don’t like going online as much as I used to. As a writer, I have always been grateful that the internet has given me a…

Try Him

“You have to try him. You have to know if he’s the right one for you. You should come up with different scenarios and see how he really reacts: if he gets jealous, if he cares, if he gets concerned for your safety and well-being, if he pays when you go out or makes you…

Confidence Boost

It is so easy to feel like you are not going anywhere at work when you are faced with deadlines and your hard work gets edited a million times before it is finalized. And it is so easy to feel demotivated when you are made to think no one is listening to you, and there…

A Month of Marriage

Sign Our Guestbook

Put a guestbook in front of me, and I’m likely to write a long heartfelt message because I like to believe people will look back at them and at least enjoy someone put some effort into this. So the idea of the guestbook at our own wedding was one that I knew I wanted from…

How to Cut Down on Wedding Costs

Weddings can be daunting just because of the sheer cost. It’s not like brides-to-be are used to the prices that are thrown at them once they start with the planning process so it can get overwhelming. Vendors like to guilt-trip you into needing certain things because it’s your big day, once in a life, your…

Support System

Patience is a virtue that I do not have. I think I would utterly fail at being in a long-distance relationship just because I hate waiting for things to happen. I hate counting down the days. But mostly, I just hate being away from my partner. Ahmad is away for the weekend, and though this is not…

Beauty and the Bride

Long-term readers of this blog know that for a good chunk of the time, I haven’t been feeling at my most beautiful. Nor have I had the needed confidence to sustain me through a period when all eyes will be on me. Attempts at getting those levels up have always been brought to a halt…

How to Be A Good Wedding Guest

Wedding season is now in full swing and it’s everywhere! I dare you to try and escape it. Even logging into your social media accounts means that there’s no doubt you’ll see at least one event. Though times are tough and prices are high, that’s not stopping anyone from throwing weddings. In fact, we have…
