    Kayne Series (Vol. 4) – What’s on my Make Up kit?

    Welcome to the 4th installation of Kayne Series -the Getting to know the Blogger behind the blog version of yours truly.- * * * This time, allow me to share what’s on my make up kit. Well, to be honest I’m not really a “make-up must have type of girl”. I go out of house with barely nothing or only with a face cream on. But when special occasions call for it, I have them handy. :)   Here’s what you can see inside my purse. Blush on – Can’t recall the brand name but I bought it from Daiso :) Blush on brush – from Avon Mascara – Maybelline…

    Bonjour 2018

    Bonjour 2018! How time flies!?! January has just hit half way! Isn’t it amazing that in a snap, we find ourselves changing 7 to 8 on our dates as we welcome 2018 with our calendars? Let me say BONJOUR 2018! There have been a couple of posts that was published right before this and somehow I feel the need to complete this themed post for my year’s chapter title. Right after this post is AU REVOIR AD. My emotional yet bitter-sweet salute to UAE’s capital. Watch out for it.   Let’s take a moment to REVIEW: Last year, I have decided to start having a yearly theme, which will guide me…

    Why start a Passion Project this 2018?

    Passion Projects, what are they? Over the past few months of 2017,  I’ve been flooding my Instagram about #PassionProjectSeries and this one is one of the many items that I’ve curated to dig deeper into this term and explore this idea! But of course, let me define what Passion Project is. Passion Projects or PPs are projects that are outside your daily job. These are your personal creative side projects that gives you excitement & allows you to appreciate life. It is what you do to somehow relax and yet contribute on your own simple way. *  *  * 💞 *  *  * These photos below are 3 of my intro…

    Reflecting on 2017 – A Year-end Review

        Over the past 12 months, yours truly has been into a whirlwind journey of employment & unemployment. I’ve been a bystander of change, immobility and of hopes and dreams. In this year-end review allow me to divide it into 4 major life aspects; Personal, Relationship, Work Life & Community Life. In each aspect – I will share both the pros & cons. View past reviews: 2016 | 2015 | 2014 | 2013 | 2012 | 2011   PERSONAL – What is #InMyHeart STATUS : Cons: Where am I? What’s happening? In between a few episodes of self pity and self awareness. I tend to ask these questions. It…

    What’s in my heart ♥ . . . on Christmas 2017

    Popping in this very day of Christmas and decided to write a short blog post of what is in my heart ♥, this Christmas season! So, it’s exactly 1 year since I wrote this blog post and yes it’s been one year since I’ve been a stay-at-home wife. When I look back, it feels like only yesterday that I bid goodbye to NDC, visited home for surprise vacation, back to Abu Dhabi again and tried my luck for a new job. There was scarcity, I couldn’t believe that in 4-5 months I only received a couple of calls that didn’t materialized. Then I delivered a talk for the HFL (Handmaids for…
