a long anticipated rant

     Hello everyone! Only God knows how much I miss sitting infront of my laptop and just ramble about life on this blog. So glad I'm back, I'm pretty sure you guys are too, right? Haha, joking. Anyways, like I promised, I'm back after two weeks (maybe 3, heheh) and yes, I'm free from school. Exam week is finally over, which marks the end of the schooling year. Well not officially, but thats one of the perks of being a high schooler, you get to leave school before it actually ends :P 

     Yesterday, right after handing the final paper in, our principle said his little goodbye speech to all 37 of us before we got dismissed. The one line that I will never forget is "Whatever happens, happens." So I can use that as an excuse to get out of trouble. I'll be like "you know my teacher once said that whatever happens, happens and now this is happening. So you gotta deal with it." Hehehehe. Ok I was just kidding, don't take it seriously. But yeah, there's no use of regretting at this point. What's more important is the future. Always try to improvise ourselves and not the other way around. 

   

  I still cannot get over the fact that we are already at this point of the year. How fast time flies.. It scares me sometimes. It has been a loooonngggggg and bumpy roller coaster ride with a lot of ups and downs. (Well obviously, that is how life works right😌) Some bad memories, and some good, they will always remain in my memory. 

     I lost friends, but then Allah swt quickly replaced them with new ones. Ever heard of that saying, "Not every person you lose is a lost". Well if you haven't, now you have. Sometimes Allah takes people away from us because He has something better planned out for us. I'm not saying that all the people I lost are bad but there's a reason why Allah took them away from me. Perhaps to test how I would react to it?So my advice for all of you out there, it's not the end of the world if a friend decides to stop being friends with you. You just gotta move on. 

   There has also been that point where I just felt like giving up on everything, but then I realised that I was stressing out for nothing. I mean, I'm still in high school, it's just the beginning. I still have a long way ahead of me, I shall not stress over small things that probably wouldn't even matter in lets say a year from now. Sure the pressure feels like you are trying to resolve a world problem but in the end you'll look back at it and think of it as something really silly. 

                                          Took this video for one of my school projects.
                                          Huge thanks to everyone  who was a part of it.

     I managed to go through all of them with the help of Allah Himself, and also some great people around me. I don't think I need to mention who they are, you people know who you are. Thank you so much, even those little words of encouragements that you guys probably think is nothing means a lot. I have learnt a lot this year. Problems come and go, knowing how to handle them properly is very important.

   Oh yes! As you all know, Ramadan is just around the corner. It is literally 2 days away and I'm really excited for it. This is a great time for us to reflect ourselves and brush up our imaan. Are you guys ready?!! Whatever it is, I wish you guys a blessed and wonderful Ramadan and summer break! All the best!
