LIFE LATELY: CHAOS, FAITH & FAKE FRIENDS

 Hi hi, guys!

How are you all doing? I hope life has been treating you well. As for me, it's been a whirlwind—tiring and chaotic, but in a good way. Last week, I was in the field non-stop, even over the weekend. No time to rest, and now here I am, struggling to keep my eyes open on a Monday. Hmm... I wonder if Friday will ever come. But hey, whatever happens, God has been keeping me safe, and I trust He will continue to do so.

Finding God in the Chaos

Speaking of God, let me tell you something—He is real. He truly is. And if you allow Him into your life, He will show Himself to you in ways you never imagined. But I know how hard it can be to hear His voice when life is moving at full speed.

For example, last week, I barely had a moment to pray properly in the morning. Every day, I woke up in a rush, got dressed, ran to catch a moto to the bus station, and headed straight to the field. It felt like I had zero seconds to spare. And isn’t that the reality for so many of us? Our lives have become so fast-paced that we barely slow down to connect with God.

But here’s the thing: We need to change that. You can’t hear God’s voice when your mind is always racing. Take a moment to breathe, to check in with yourself, and to make space for Him. I know you can do it.

Let’s Talk About Selfish People

Now, on to something else that’s been on my mind lately—selfish people. You know the ones I’m talking about. Those people who only call when they need to vent, to share their happiness, or to update you on their lives, but never once stop to ask, "Hey, how are you?"

Don’t get me wrong—I love when my friends are open with me. I want to hear about their wins and struggles. But friendship is supposed to be a two-way street. There are some people who act like they own you, who expect you to always be there for them, yet they never return the favor. And honestly? That’s not how life works.

I am where I want to be. Where God wants me to be. So no, I won’t squeeze myself into someone else’s plans just because they expect me to. I am a friend, not a backup plan.

If someone only calls you when they need to talk about themselves, but disappears when you need them, that’s not friendship—that’s emotional selfishness. And you deserve better than that.

Little Joys in My Life

Enough about fake people! Let’s talk about the small things that made me happy recently:

📸 First picture: A sweet Valentine’s Day treat from my lovely friend. Thank you, my lovey-dovey! You’re such a great person in my life.





Second picture: My empty coffee mug. Yep, I finished my coffee, and it was a solid 10/10!





🎙️ Third picture: My favorite girl, Jules, the amazing podcaster. I adore her so much—she’s my role model, and I aspire to be like her one day.


Wrapping Up

That’s all for today, my loves! Thank you for always reading my blogs, for supporting me, and for being part of my little world. You mean the world to me.

Have an amazing week ahead. I love you! 💖

MY FITNESS JOURNEY: LEARNING TO LOVE THE UPS AND DOWNS

  Hi, beautiful people! I hope life has been treating you amazingly! On my side, life has been full of honey and chocolate—seriously, my life is so sweet these days. I don’t know what changed, but whatever it is, God has really been working and protecting me. It’s been such a long time since I last wrote, and honestly, I feel like I’m about to collapse—just kidding! I’m alive and well. The truth is, I’ve been super busy working in the field, and by the time I get home, I’m too tired to craft something for you. But here we are! So, let’s talk about something that’s been on my mind. Back in 2023, I had an average-sized body with a BMI of 24—not too high, not too low—and I was happy with my size. I loved going to the gym, and I was doing well. I remember squatting up to 80kg, and I was so proud of myself! Then, at the beginning of 2024, I got sick, and my weight dropped drastically. My BMI fell to 17, which I really didn’t like at first. But as time passed, I started to love m...

THE AGONY THAT ONLY THOSE WHO KNOW WILL KNOW

  Hi, hi, guys! I hope you're all doing amazingly. As for me, I’m doing okay—though not great—which leads us to today’s topic. Tell me, why do girls have to suffer so much in their lives? I mean, every single month, we’re granted a week of pain. Today started with that struggle, and honestly, it sucks. Picture this: I’m sitting in the office, and it feels like my world is being torn into a thousand pieces. It’s as if someone is literally slicing my womb with a knife. The pain is unreal. I know guys don’t understand this experience—some even act like we’re lazy or making it up—but trust me, if you had to endure this, you wouldn’t even get out of bed. Yet society expects us to act normal, competent, and productive, matching or even surpassing our male counterparts who don’t deal with cramps. And after all that effort, men still have the audacity to claim that we’re not strong. Let me tell you something: we are strong. That’s exactly why women deserve respect and care. We go through ...

LOST IN SCROLLING: MY STRUGGLE WITH SOCIAL MEDIA

  Hi, Friends! I hope you’re all doing amazing. I’m doing fantastic too! 😊 Have you ever felt trapped by something you’re struggling to break free from, like it’s pulling you down while you’re trying to rise? That’s how I’ve been feeling lately. Over the past few months, I’ve noticed a significant drop in my ability to focus. My hands seem glued to my phone, and I spend hours scrolling through TikTok and Instagram reels. It feels excessive, right? My Struggle with Focus I used to be someone who loved reading books—romantic novels, in particular—and spending time in prayer. But now, social media has taken over, and I barely make time for God or myself. I’ve tried to change my habits. For example, one morning, I decided to avoid my phone completely. I got up, took a shower, had breakfast, and went straight to class without scrolling. But guess what? I missed an important announcement about canceled classes because I didn’t check the group chat. That experience discouraged ...
