Dear Life

Sometimes growth begins with stepping away from everything familiar...

For the next 2 months, I’ll be offline and away from social media... No phone, no updates..., just a challenge that has the potential to change me forever.... 🤞

The past few weeks have been emotionally heavy, and everything happened so quickly that I didn’t get the chance to meet everyone or say goodbye before leaving.... If I missed you, please don’t take it personally.... 🌼

If all goes well, I’ll return with stories to tell and a version of myself I’ve been working hard to become...

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I’ll see you all on the other side.... ❤️

I’m not even sure where to begin… my heart is so full.... ☺️

With my Beaumont chapter coming to an end and a whole new chapter beginning next week.., I can’t stop thinking about how blessed I’ve been to meet such incredible people along the way.... ❤️

Thank you all so much for such a beautiful farewell and for thinking of me in such a special way.... You made me feel so loved and appreciated.... 😍
Every little detail and every bit of effort you put into this meant more than you’ll ever know... I’ll carry all this love with me as I begin this new challenging chapter.... 😇

Thank you for believing in me, encouraging me, and giving me the confidence to take this next step... I’ll carry your love, prayers, and all the beautiful memories with me wherever I go.... 😊

Beaumont will always have a special place in my heart because of all of you..... Until we meet again... ❤️❤️

Snaps from one of the things I was most excited to do in Chicago, visiting Willis Tower.....🏙️

I’ve known for years that Fazlur Rahman Khan, a Bangladeshi-American engineer, was the genius behind the original Sears Tower.... So standing there in person felt a little extra special....

One of those moments that makes you feel proud and amazed at the same time. 🇧🇩🤍

The day was spent walking around downtown and exploring its attractions....

Watching Argentina play today brought back one of my favorite memories...... 🥰🥰

In 2024, I had the chance to watch Argentina’s Copa América quarterfinal match from the stadium.... The atmosphere, the chants, the sea of blue and white, and seeing everything happen right in front of my eyes is something I’ll never forget... ☺️☺️

Today, I’m watching from the living room with family, and that’s special in its own way....
But some moments only happen once, and being there that day will always be one of those lifetime experiences I’ll carry with me forever.... 🇦🇷⚽💙

Started the day a little late.., but we knew exactly where we wanted to go first… food.......... 😂

So we headed to Devon Avenue, where it felt like we had somehow landed back in a deshi neighborhood....
So many halal options.., familiar faces.., and familiar vibes everywhere 🥰

Spent the afternoon trying some famous spots and exploring the area before heading to Des Plaines to meet a friend.... ☺️

And because apparently we don’t know how to end a day early, we finished the night exploring downtown Chicago at midnight 🌃

That’s how we wrapped up Day 2 in Chicago 😇😇

🌸 See you in the next post for Day 3 ✌️✌️
