Spring of Sweden

Finally spring is here! From many days I was reading in newspapers that spring is around the corner but although tried I could not find THAT corner. Since I moved to Sweden I now came to know that definition of spring varies from country to country or maybe only I think like that. However, I am not glad to tell I don’t heart the spring of Sweden as I do of my country. I have to live with this fact that it will not be THAT cold but still cold. I don’t have to wear THOSE fluffy warm jackets but still jackets will be on. May be I am just being skeptical. Nonetheless, at least I am out of those dark days and ultra dark nights. Here is to Sweden, to spring and to colors, cheers!

Life is short, buy colorful dresses, eat ice-cream and enjoy the spring !

It's been a while..

It's been a while since I said 'Hello' to my place. Since I got some emails lately asking me if I quit writing or I am dead or caught in some accident and what not :) So, to all of you out there - No I am not dead, I am not caught in any accident either. I am just investing myself fully in my work and language school. Moreover, the winter blues cast a spell on me and I could not make anything possible in terms of writing. For my lovely followers I must tell I do read your blogs if not everyday then some days at least. I don't leave any comments but yes I love all of you.

 

Isn't February month of love? Love what you have and don't take things for granted!

Xo Xo,

If you're going to do something, strive to do it better than anyone else

I have been damn busy with my work these days and for the same reason couldn't update my blog in a while. I have read all the latest posts of my lovely followers till yesterday and commented too, I hope on everyone's post. I will try to read rest during this weekend. I've been looking forward to this weekend more because I am a little tired. I will catch some needed sleep :)

Beside this story of tiredness I have a little good news to share with you guys. I completed 1 year at my work, yay yay. I was little nervous when I started working in my company. For me it was a new country, new language and new culture. But with every passing day I was gaining the confidence, was trying to put in my best at work. I am still learning new things every passing day but at the same time I am so happy for all I have accomplished during this year. I must say my colleagues helped me a lot and they are always supportive to me. Got beautiful flowers plant at work on completing 1 year and almost got tears in my eyes :)

I hope all of you have a nice and relaxing weekend. Must take the last bits of summer before its gone.

Smiles (:

Celebrating 65th Independence Day

If our country is worth dying for in time of war, let us resolve that it is worth living for in time of peace - Happy Independence Day

Yes, my country is celebrating it's 65th independence day. No matter which country I live in, my heart still pounds for my very own country. Long live Pakistan !

Much love,

All the way into Autumn

Hello lovelies around the world. Today while coming to work I felt this autumn chill in the breeze. Can't believe that summers are near to over. We hardly had few sunny days and looks like we are already stepping into autumn. I am really not ready for autumn which will be followed by cold sheer winters. On the other hand we have to accept change and have to accept it with smiling face. If we accept hard things with smile then they don't look much tough, do you agree? I will go on a long walk near the sea and will say thanks to the summer for blessing us with warm days :)

Are there anythings you want to do before summer is over? Share it with me as I love to listen your voices. Have a nice weekend ahead!

Until next,

I K R A
