  Saima Says   Hello there! Welcome to Saima Says! This is Saima Gulati and you are reading a blog from a forever confused 13 year-old girl. What you are reading are her emotions poured out. Come join her! So I know I have been gone a long time and that's because of a reason. First I was swamped due to exams and after they finished, I gave myself time to figure some things out. Ever since I entered teenage, I have been feeling different. It's like a rush of insecurities that send me to a downward spiral again and again. And I thought to myself, I write blogs about my feelings. What should I have written if I didn't truly know how I felt? I did write a blog last month but it just didn't feel right so I didn't post it. I've got to say, the teenage mind is such a fickle thing. Changes over and over again; it's so clouded up. Recently, I found out I was always in a weird place because of my insecurities. Ever since I was very young, I thought it was significant

Come join her! HEY 2021 !!   Oh my god! It's already 2021? Is it just me or this year lasted for both 10000 years and 10 seconds at the same time? It was too long but at the same time too short? I really don't know. I'm flabbergasted. ( AS USUAL ) .  I want to start by saying that even though 2020 was tragic, depressing and sorrowful for so many of us, it has taught me a lot of things which I see to be so vital now. From all of these things, the most imporant one would be learning to be grateful. I heard it all the time from my family but never really knew what it meant. But being in midst of a global pandemic really put thing

COME JOIN HER!   JEALOUSY Do you ever feel jealous of someone? Or did you ever feel jealous? If you are saying no, not only you're lying to the people around you but also to yourself. Lying to yourself is even worse than to someone else.  It's completely normal to be envious towards another person. ' JEALOUSY' is a human emotion that all of us have experience with. The only difference is that a very few people express their emotions regarding jealousy. We all know that it's a cynical feeling, so we decide to hide it. Well, let me tell you. Your emotions won't go away until and unless you DEAL WITH THEM . You have to e

  Saima Says 2020   what does SAIMA  have to SAY about it?     Our elders have said it right. You never know what tomorrow will bring. It might bring sadness , hope, joy, realization or any other emotion but our sole purpose is to go through it all with a smile spread across our face . That may be hard most of the times. 2020 is something we all have in common. It's not just a year, it is a distinct journey for all of us. It has been a roller coaster ride with so many emotions all at once.That being said, 2019 had the perfect ending. I kick-started 2020 off in USA , with my family, surrounded by love and happiness. I thought that this would be the year when I got everything I yearned, but n ow I realize that it is the year when I appreciate and value all that I have . My highlights from USA are inserted down below :     Apart from all that has changed, there is one thing that hasn't changed from the start of quarantine that I miss school the most.

COME JOIN HER!     My FIRST EVER BLOG    Nervous? Apprehensive? Yes I am!  But one of the most essential advice that my parents ever gave me would probably be that never take too much pressure for anything that you do.  A little pressure is vital so that it keeps you right on track but too much is unnecessary.  So just have faith, both in God and yourself and do it. Of course, I still have butterflies in my stomach but here I am. Writing a blog.  It seems a little weird because about 3 months ago I had minimal information about what a blog is.   It all started when an English teacher from school, who has been teaching me since so long suggested
