HOME AGAIN | THE THINGS I MISSED MOST WHILE BEING AWAY FROM HOME | ALITTLEKIRAN

I arrived back home yesterday for the Christmas period and have a stretch of three glorious weeks where I can be in my happiest place. Being in London for the past three months has been a bit of a wake-up-call for me. I struggled more than I thought possible, I have always been someone who […]

A SIMPLE GUIDE ABOUT THE MANY WAYS YOU CAN GIVE BACK

I think most of us all have the thought that we want to give back but we just don’t know where to start. There are hundreds of adverts, thousands of charities, horror stories where people have been scammed and an unimaginable amount of suffering in the world. It’s not unusual to feel like you want […]

WORRY DOES NOT TAKE AWAY TOMORROW’S TROUBLES IT TAKES AWAY TODAY’S PEACE | ALITTLEKIRAN

An unusual, late night post for you all today, only because I have a lot on my mind. I have been feeling quite weighed down recently. A lot of changes are about to happen. I touched on this in my August Goals and just want to be brutally honest and get really real for a […]

KICK ASS SINGLE GIRL VALENTINE’S DAY GUIDE

Personally, I love Valentine’s Day in spite of my single girl badge. It just seems like a great day to me where everyone celebrates love, all kinds of love and not just romantic love. I do understand that it is little more than a flimsy excuse for shops to sell shedloads of lovey dovey crap […]

I don’t write posts like this often but I thought taking a break from beauty and just talking about life might be a nice change. Here are some things I think it is important to remind myself now and again. SOMETIMES YOU JUST NEED TO ENJOY THE MOMENT With all the various forms of social […]

FEELING 22 | 22 THINGS I HAVE LEARNT | ALITTLEKIRAN

So, I am 22 today (June 7th) and this little fact is freaking me out a little. Age is a funny thing. It is so strange that when you’re little you think being an adult must be the best thing in the world and then when you finally are an adult you feel like you […]

MONDAY MORNING INSPIRATION | ON BOTH KNEES POEM | ALITTLEKIRAN

I found this poem on Tumblr a long time ago and I have been haunted, since, by how beautiful it is. To me, this captures entirely what love is all about. I am not a hugely social person and I don’t date a lot at all, possibly because I am so impatient and it is so […]

Current Music Obsessions | ALITTLEKIRAN

I haven’t written a music post in so long, I had forgotten how much I love sharing what I am listening to with you guys. You know I always love a good recommendation, so don’t be shy and share your favourite tracks with me in the comments. I’ve been all over the place lately with […]

Bereavement | Book Review & Quotes | ALITTLEKIRAN

I recently finished reading this book: Mindfulness & the Journey of Bereavement by Peter Bridgewater. I read it because death, both mine and those around me, is a subject that plays on my mind frequently and although I know it is inevitable for everybody it still continues to baffle me in spite of its simplicity. The […]

Made in Chelsea Mondays | ALITTLEKIRAN

This post is slightly different to what you would usually expect, but I just have so many opinions right now that they need an outlet or I’ll end up talking to myself and never getting to sleep. Firstly, this is about the show Made in Chelsea which aired about two hours ago, this is a […]

One Last Time ♥

I have a new music obsession and it’s called One Last Time by Ariana Grande. The lyrics and her voice are perfect. It is just a lovely song, about asking for forgiveness and not being ready to let go of someone. You never really no what you have until it’s too late, and the lyrics […]

Music ♪♫ | Hozier

Hello, it’s not Monday anymore but I just finished downloading some new songs onto my phone so I can be a lot happier on the bus tomorrow morning and I thought I would include a particular song in a post for many different reasons. The first reason is that it is a great song, the […]

Music ♪♫ | Avalanche

Monday has rolled around again and here is a new song that I have just discovered, I get obsessed with new songs very regularly. If you don’t like these posts let me know in the comments and I will stop posting them, I love hearing about what kind of content you would like to see […]

BLOGMAS 6: A LOVE LETTER

I actually cannot believe this happened to me and I am not entirely convinced that it is not a practical joke by one of my not-so-funny-friends. One of my closest course friends at university and I were dawdling around aimlessly in the Psychology department on the last Tuesday of term, essentially we were just lamenting […]
