Book review: To Kill A Mockingbird

T o Kill a Mockingbird is a fictional book which was published in 1960- now known as classic of modern American literature- by Nelle Harper Lee. With its instant success and being translated in almost 40 languages it has been read in many high schools in America and other countries as well. Harper Lee's book has been greatly recognized for  its delicate treatment of a child’s awakening to issues such as racism, class and prejudice during the Great Depression (1929–39) in the fictional town of Maycomb, Alabama.  This extremely thought-provoking story is mainly centered on the trail of a black man that Atticus Finch is defending who is being accused of sexually assaulting a white girl. In the course of the trail and through her mischievous adventures like the exciting visits they make to Boo Radley who is seen as odd but is he really … and observing her small town, Scout learns that everybody deserves to be treated with dignity, respect and justice regardless of their skin

Boujie on a budget... Summed up like a real budget πŸ’ΈπŸ’²πŸ’Έ

In every blog post that I have posted I try by all means to make it easy and understandable to everyone who might come across and read the blog but I always stick to one specific topic. This week though will strictly be a switch up as well as a guideline of everything connected to being a boujie spender on a tight budget The first and most important thing one should try to avoid is purchasing something they don't like just because it's cheap!! Do not... DO NOT turn yourself into a cheap-skate for the sake of saving and budgeting.  The problem behind buying something just because it is cheap is that you hardly see any value in it because more than often, chances are you will complain about it everytime because it will not be something you are satisfied with! Another problem with buying the cheapest thing on the isle is that not times, these cheap things we buy are hardly of any good quality. This easily applies to make-up, shoes, alcohol, hair (mostly weave and wigs). An

A boujie way of celebrating 🍾🍾

Hi guys! This past weekend has been all sorts of busy but very fun, from attenting a pre birthday celebration to a 21st birthday party and an after party! In between all of that fun I've had to buy presents and outfits to look good but I've also had to spend every cent that I have properly and strategically. After the weekend I had u thought to myself that it would be such a great idea to talk about spending for birthday dinners and lunches with gifts included. Every girl wants to look gorgeous around other people, especially if it's around a crowd that knows you very well. The first thing one needs to do when going to such celebrations is to still stick to the theme if specified, so let's talk shopping for the occasion. When shopping for an occasion, it is quite important to buy something that you feel comfortable in. Yes some things might look nicer but comfort comes first because no one likes wasting money on clothes that don't suit them. Secondly, it

The three killer words... BACK TO SCHOOL

Ever had one of those days where you find yourself having the most amazing time with your squad then one of you suddenly remembers that you guys are actually students and holidays are almost over? I'm sure you have. Then one of you also remembers that school requires money to be spent? It is those three killer words - BACK TO SCHOOL - that remind us that we need to start budgeting for the new acedemic year. Over the past years, I've learnt that we don't really need to pressure ourselves too much seeing that there are things such as SALES!! And famous deals such as "Buy 2 and get the cheapest one free" from your favorite stores.  Let's get through how to start off the year on an amazing note in terms of both finance and academics.  On the top of todays list we have BOOKS BOOKS AND SOME MORE BOOKS. These could either be textbooks or writing books. While most textbooks are quite expensive at bookshops there are times where the textbook you need for th
