Lovely fellas, : "My weekend roundup" was amongst the most initial post that I shared on my blog (here) , not only did I enjoy creating it but received some great feedback too therefore today I am bringing you my last week summary through this post. By the way I am just an ordinary girl next door whose life is not that thrilling but, oh well, I promise we can get along this pretty well.(High five) .

I was on leave from work for the whole week and even though I was confined to my room I had one heck of a time , following are the bits and pieces of my lazy, home stuck vacation.



I became a hardcore fan of Khaled Hosseini when I got my hands on "a thousand splendid suns", it left me speechless so I knew I had to get his other two novels immediately. This book stole my heart too and I remember my eyes slipping a tear silently while reading it, I had some good laughs too but the heaps of sadness this books throws at you is incomparable. A story of remorse and guilt, love and loyalty beautifully narrated with a brief history of all the turmoil happened in Afganistan, the pre 9/11 era.I was in a deep state of gratitude for all the blessings that I never took account of or asked for ,that we are blessed in so many ways one could possibly think of . Please do give it a read and it would make you a little bit more compassionate.


Besides reading I watched plenty of movies and even watched those which I wouldn't have otherwise.Like the Hate story 3 (please don't hate me because I had no other option available at that point of time ) Its not that bad actually rather another run of the mill type. Watched Fitoor and didnt like it either except for the beautiful landscape of Kashmir.Watched Inside Out and enjoyed it alot,though its been dragged a bit. The rest were all old bollywood movies that we must have watched repeatedly and there is nothing much to talk about them.


How could I miss some online shopping and that too at some bargain,if you had read my last post where I talked about my six months spending ban,you might be thinking of how easily I gave up and to be honest I did,because the prices were so lucrative and I am in love with Bath and Body works shower gels so I couldn't miss this opportunity or else it would have haunted me for the rest of my life.Bought this from Smart Bargains

So that's all folks,did you enjoy reading this post? Do tell me in the comments below.

2015 ended up so fast and now its already mid of Feb,gosh!!! My last year was a roller coaster ride in true sense .Experienced some of the worst ever behaviors , rather true faces of people and that you have to be strong because there is no other choice,the good part was my siblings got married and the whole wedding fiesta brought us so many happy memories. Work life went smooth if not superb, marked some great travel adventures with my awesome Dad,tried new makeup brands like a ninja ,made some awesome new friends.So all in all 2015 contributed a lot in making me more mature and confident but I still have many goals to accomplish.And today via this post I present you few of my new year resolutions (which is no more a new year and these resolutions are my life long goals):

1)Fitness Goal:

With this hectic work life where you are on your toes most of the time, you come home all drained up and fatigued.I believe proper exercise can help buildup stamina and vitality.So planning for some rigorous strength training sessions together with some doable aerobics.I am such a lazy butt so haven't started it yet but I promise (a promise to self) that today is the last day of this shitty procrastination. My fitness goal with priority is stamina buildup,muscle toning and lastly to eat less junk ..(Junk food is my life)

2)Makeup Goals:

By makeup here I mean my makeup buying habits.I went over board last year and hoarded makeup just like anything. Buying makeup was a lust and at the same time a retail therapy that became a long bad habit.The worst part was, it was mostly random purchase.So my third goal (but not obviously third in priority ) would be to buy only what I need and stop being fancied by every other release.I have also put myself on a spending ban of six months,starting from this month only.Following was my first makeup buy of the year and I loveeed it but now I am on a BANNN.



3)Blogging Goals:

What I miss most in my life is persistent blogging , I have never been consistent in developing blog content because its one hell of a task when you have a hectic work life.But since I love blogging so much and almost feel guilty for neglecting it, that I have made a point of blogging daily even if its about penning down a random idea or creating a small piece for a blog post,no matter what, it has to be done daily.I want to post more regularly. So my fourth goal is to make this space more active and more loved.

4)Reading Goals:

I am a sucker when it comes to books. (Remember the new course books that we used to sniff and loved so much).Well was never a nerd but I got this habit of leisure reading from my parents,and now that I am all alone after my sister got married (which means I cant nag someone continuously), I indulge myself more often into this beautiful world.My reading goals include reading more from Khaled Hosseni and Elif Shafak.I am hooked to both of there styles.Plus I wish to buy and read Harry potter complete series( better late than never, and age is only a number ,rite?)

5)Travelling:

From last two years I have been going to family vacations and was fortunate enough to experience and make some out of this world memories.I am not some one who would plan a destination and budget it out with all the itinerary rather It just happens like in a snap (if you know what I mean) Plans never workout for me therefore I am just hoping to do the same this year. Few of the places that are on my wish list include kel ( Kashmir ),Lahore and Koh Samui (Thailand),lets see if I would be lucky enough to travel to one of these places this year.

Resort in Shogran where we stayed (All covered up in clouds) Epic beauty
