Hey Everyone!

Hope you’re all doing well 🙂

First of all, I would like to thank the stunningly beautiful Claudia Marie for tagging me in her happiness tag. Her blog is definitely one of my favorite blogs and I have learned so much from her!!! Make sure to follow her blog if you haven’t already!

Here are five of the things that make me happy!

Family: I am super grateful for having such a loving and caring family and no matter how much I say about them I feel like I can’t do justice to how much they mean to me. I am very blessed that my parents are very supportive of me and everything that I do. I view them not just as parents but as friends and I really enjoy spending time with them! Of course, I am grateful for my entire family and I love spending time with all of them especially my fun-loving grandma!

Nature: I love spending time in nature. Okay so I admit that I don’t do this as much as I should. However, now that I am a student at UC Irvine I am very blessed that I am surrounded by beautiful nature. Not to brag but one of the cool things about the campus is that there is a large park right in the middle called Aldrich Park. I wasn’t such a huge nature lover but lately I have really been enjoying walking through the park in the early morning when the weather is crispy cool and I feel like I can feel the oxygen!

Psychology: As some of you may know my college major is psychology. Without sounding like a nerd I have to admit that I really do enjoy learning new things each day. I guess what I love about my major is that its very practical and many of the things that I learn can be applied to my everyday live.

YouTube: Lately I have really been enjoying myself by watching YouTube videos. I love how YouTube has a little something for everyone. My all time favorite You Tuber is Rumena Begum . Although I haven’t met her in real life I can tell from her videos that she is such a sweetheart, so humble and sweet. Her YouTube channel is filled with amazing and super helpful beauty tips and tricks and some of her

I use  YouTube for both work and play. As a student I feel that YouTube can help clarify some concepts that I might not quite understand.But for the most part I use YouTube to relax and unwind after a long day of studying and going to classes. I think they key to this is moderation. I make sure to allocate around 30 minutes a day and I skip this if I have an exam the next day.

Instagram: Finally, I really enjoy Instagram. Although I am not very active myself I really enjoy seeing all the beautiful photos that people post! If you’re interested you can follow me @yasminraoufi.
