Eiffel Tower View

One day, when my mom and I were sitting in the living room, she asked me if I knew that I could see the Eiffel Tower from our living room window. At first, I thought she was kidding, it seemed more reasonable to me that Sacre Coeur would be visible from our apartment.

We waited until it lit up and sure enough it was the Eiffel Tower in all it's sparkly glory. It is incredible to see it every night light up and from 16 kilometers away. This proves that it is really as big as they say.

We shouldn't let our apartment agency know or the rent might go up !!! An apartment with an Eiffel Tower view, haha!!

My Accomplishments

The other day, my mom asked me if I was amazed by all the stuff I have done in my life so far and if I thought I would be where I am today at 26 years old.

And thinking about this I am amazed, by all that I have accomplished so much and hope to accomplish more in the years to come.

Already at 26 :
I have a Bachelor's in Music (Summa Cum Laude ! )and a Masters in Culturel Communication and Finance (all my classes were in French)
Speak English, French, and debutant in Turkish and Islamic Arabic
Living in a foreign country (even though I always knew I would be living here), with a foreign husband (our common language is French!) and a baby
Have my own business which had a slow kick off but is starting to pick up
Housewife and stay-at-home, work-from-home mother - still working on this

Started work at 15 at a Dairy Queen
Volunteer for different structures in my area when I was younger
A musician, an artist, and a writer

Plus, many more that I can't think of at the moment because it is late and my brain is drained from a long day.
Are you amazed at the things that you have accomplished so far in your life ??

 

Back in the Blogging Saddle.

I know, I know, it has literally been ages, since I last wrote. And I know I always say I have been busy, but I really have been busy.

For those of you who know me in real life, you know why and for those of you who don't, I had a baby in August and I have had my hands full since then.

Fatima Tul Zehra was born on August 16, 2013 and for privacy reasons I prefer not to post pictures of her on my blog.

I will be posting here and there in the upcoming weeks about my pregnancy experience in France (the paperwork to fill out, the appointments, buying baby clothes, the room etc etc), my delivery experience and how life has treated me since then. Also, I am going to post pictures of some of the fun stuff we've done since I last wrote.

Until next time,
 

I know that it has been ages since I last wrote...

I've been busy! really really busy.

Y & I are expecting are first child in August !

So, for these past 6 months, I have learned about being pregnant in France and all the paperwork that has to be filled out, etc. (posts to come soon for this!) and I have also had some fun too, (again posts in the works)!

Be patient and soon posts will be back on schedule!

 

First Snow

I haven't wrote in a little over a month and a half. Because I have been very busy with work, housework (with more room it's hard to keep it all straight), papers, and relax time. I will try to write, but nothing really exciting is going on!

Here is a picture of the first snow of the season even before winter starts.
