31 day reset - Day 22

Start a side hustle.

Na so?
Na so e easy reach?

OK I shouldn't have this attitude but really though, aunty rosetta chill now, lol. Ermm I kinda already have one across the ocean and I guess I should be working on reviving it.

So despite being away and having extremely limited (monetary) resources, I used my most valuable resource- my brain- and spent the day writing up ideas, reading and researching.

It's kinda frustrating to see everything at my disposal and not be able to access it. Sigh. For now I'll continue fine tuning ideas and plans and surely something will fall into place and get things in motion. Till then i'll just stay inspired and keep doing what I can with what I have.

Love always,
Sabirah.

Dream Jobs, contests and more dreams

Hi!

Wow! Overwhelming response on my last post, I was pleasantly surprised and had no idea it would touch so many people. I'm truly grateful for everyone who read it, thought it was good enough to share and passed it on. Thank you, It means a lot.

So today's business! I saw this amazing contest on Modcloth and I just had to enter, I'm not really big on contests but this one looked like so much fun, and I already have and love Pinterest so I thought why not?

So I set about creating a board that reflected my dream job... Only problem was, I don't really have one, I was only stuck for a few moments and while thinking about it I tweeted this- "Still don't know what my dream job is or if it exists, but I know the random mish mash of things that make me happy and that's OK :)” This comforted me while I tried to figure out what to put up.

I know that I'm highly creative, I know that I'm a helper, I love to learn and I love the study of the human mind. I know that I'd like to make a difference where it matters. Under these broad descriptions I could do a variety of things and I'm sure I have so much more to explore. I also know that it's important you do something you enjoy and are good at. While the idea of not having a box to place myself in scares me a bit, it also greatly excites me.

For the competition I narrowed it down to teaching and being the creative director for my brand Natural Saturdays. It was so much fun creating the board just as I expected. What I didn't expect was all the reflection it made me do. I'm glad. I keep getting inspired by the oddest things!

Here's a snapshot of my entry

So do you have a job/career suggestion for me?

How about you? Do you have a dream job?

Tell me in the comments even if it's "silly"

Love,

Sabirah.

Back to Happy 1.3 - Spring break overview

Hi!!!
I have missed this blog!! this is going to be an all over the place blog post!!
I had a good spring break, very untraditional but good all the same.
I started off with my bikram yoga course which I loved (i will dedicate an entire blog post once I've gone a couple more times to give a really wholesome review)

And then I had some fun creating stuff for Natural Saturdays I love to create things, its such a wonderful feeling, no matter how big or small.










I really got to spend some quality time with myself which is really a gift. I'm learning to enjoy my own company again and I'm happy that I'm still able to do this.

I bought some new make up and had fun playing with my new lipstick, thats definitely my favorite make-up item now, Lipstick!!











Over the weekend I ventured out of town and got to spend time with some amazing people in my life. I really cherish those people that award me the opportunity to share with them and vice versa, its a blessing.



I'm really hopeful for the spring! The sun is out and it has really lifted my mood, and every problem that comes my way is being treated calmly and with rationality. Its a good feeling and I just appreciate that I am in a good place right now.

I wore my lipstick on the first day of school :D
More frequent updates soonish!! good wishes to you and yours
