1 Year Blogiversary!

If you have been here since the beginning this is the 51st   blog post written by me. Exactly one year ago, the 23rd of August 2015, a passionate girl was hitting the button “Publish” for the first time! I was nervous but, also super excited to share about the things that love. I literally thought no one was going to even bother reading my blogs. I have always loved writing and it’s great to know that you guys enjoy and appreciate my thoughts and ideas. They say that time flies when you’re having fun, and they sure are right! Today, as I look back there is whole new memory lane that I have created for myself Apart from being a full time college student and working part-time I am so proud to have a little space of my own.

​Things I have learned in a year: It’s okay if others don’t understand your dreams as long as you believe in them go pursue them. I am so happy that I took the lead to start a blog. I know so many people who have gotten inspired and started their own blogs. I didn’t know anyone who had a blog and I was scared to start my own. In the first week, I receive a lot of negative comments from my very own friends. It made me sad, I wasn’t expecting for such a bad start. I am proud to say that, I didn’t question myself or took a step back, but I realized when you do something different people won’t understand. I’m happy that, I was the first person to go out of my comfort zone and do something different. I am so thankful that I took on to this crazy beautiful adventure. 

​I posted this picture on my Instagram right after I published my first blog. “She hustles in heels” is what I wanted to name my blog. Later on, I decided to go by my name as my name is spelled in a very unique way. I still use the saying she hustles in heels as the meaning behind my blog. To me it’s extremely important to work for what I want. To pursue my dreams and hustle hard for them every single day of my life and I also believe to work hard and keep classy.

​Thanks to my mom who is my number one supporter and few other people who have always had my back you know who you are. A huge thanks to all of you for being a part of my journey and completing 365 days and 4 seasons, 1 college year, I’m so happy that I got to share my travel experience. So, grateful to have collaborated with some amazing brands. I promise it’s only going to get better from here. Lots more exciting things are planned ahead. For now, I want to enjoy the last few hours and celebrate 1 year Blogiversary before we step into the second year blogging.

         Happy leap day guys! February is over and I couldn’t be happier can’t wait until its spring. I’m so done with winter weather.

February is a short month but I did manage to have lot of fun and I have quite a lot of favorites to share. So without any further a due let’s get to it.

Favorite days

​February 7th Super bowl day had a family gathering and celebrated mom and dad’s 25th anniversary. Absolutely loved when Lady Gaga sang the National Anthem and the half time show just amazing queen B killed it as always. I’m so in love with her new song Formation and I’m so excited about her world tour announcement. February 14th Valentine’s Day I studied basically all day ate lots of popcorn and candies. February 17th was Random Act of kindness day and just as I walked out of class a guy handed me goodies how sweet! It’s all the little things that make me happy.

Food Favorites 

​I’m still going very strong with my new year’s resolutions. I went out for lunch at Sushi House for the first time and had my first full course sushi meal experience. I have had sushi plenty of times and I do enjoy it. This experience was very different though and I was very happy with my orders.  I ordered Chicken Tempura and Salmon Teriyaki sushi. In the beginning, I order a small peanut Sause salad which tasted great as well.  A guilty treat, I bet you guys will thank me for after trying. I went to the bookstore to buy Scranton for my midterm exam and ended up buying these snacks. I purchased Combos I absolutely love the buffalo blue cheese favor it taste as amazing as it sounds and with that I also purchased Milk Chocolate covered pretzel which are so freaking good. These two snacks together is one of my favorite to have spicy and creamy combos with sweet and crunchy pretzels. Give it a try and let me know how you like it.

Fashion Favorites

​I am so glad to finally wear some winter colors and get a break from bright and colorful Indian outfits. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love Indian outfits and colorful clothes but I enjoy wearing my winter shades as well more then half my closet consists of winter wear. Cozy outfits are a must for Michiganders but keeping them simple and cute is always very important or else it can easy get boring in this gloomy weather. I like to wear more solid and structured clothes. A pop of lip color never hurts I have been loving pink lip this month. A bit moisturizer and no makeup is my go to for winters. 

Favorite Saying 

​“GIRLS compete with each other, Women Empower one another.” I believe in girl power and women empowerment and I want to surround myself with like minded women who share the same goal or vision like me. It’s time to stop blaming society for women’s rights. Women keep themselves down by not challenging themselves. Supporting other girls and having a bond is very important. Love yourself for who you are and believe in yourself and no matter what be comfortable with who you are no one in this world is like you and your absolutely unique. Your enough and you can do great things. Stop doubting yourself your perfect the way you are. I’m so thankful to be surrounded by few amazing girl friends that support me in my goals. When we lift each other up and support one another no matter what, that’s when wonderful things happen. 

Favorite Songs

​I have more than one favorite song this month. I love listening to music and this couple songs have been on repeat in my playlist. (Click on the song to watch it!)

1. Love yourself- by Justin Bieber

2. Soch na sake- Airlift  

3. Send my love- Adele

Until next time, keep hustling for your dreams. Xo, Jessi
