Mehendi is a form of body art worn by women generally on the hands, arms, and feet. Mehendi is most popular in its countries of origin, which is believed to date back to prehistoric times, in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, African countries, and several countries in the Middle East. In the past several years, mehendi has been popularized in the western world and became widely known as "henna tattoos".

Mehendi can be worn by women for religious events like weddings, rituals, etc. or for any fancy event. Whether you wear it for cultural reasons or just for fun, mehendi always adds elegance and beauty!

Here are a few of my top favorite mehendi designs I have come across online:


Peacock Mehendi Design

Though this is on the simpler side, I have used this design multiple times when I did my own mehendi on my palms. I am obsessed with anything peacock-related, so this design is perfect anytime I want an easy and quick peacock pattern!

Bridal Mehendi

On the contrary, bridal mehendi is perhaps the most intricate type. Worn for grand Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, etc. weddings, the bride and all the closest female family members and friends get their mehendi done. I love this elegant mehendi design with the bride on one hand and the groom on the other, which is a very popular bridal mehendi design.

Arabic Design

Arabic designs usually consist of floral, non-symmetric patterns. These beautiful patterns can be worn for a variety of occasions and will definitely make it hard to take your eyes off of your hands and feet!

Moroccan Mehendi

Usually formed by fine lines and geometric designs, Moroccan mehendi has its own unique style. These designs range from super simple to deep and complicated. No matter the complexity, you can surely rock Moroccan mehendi.

White Henna Tattoo

White Henna tattoos have been popularized in the western world in more recent years. White henna is not true mehendi; it is similar to a temporary body paint, which will last 2-3 days at maximum. Although I do not recommend white henna tattoos all the time due to skin safety issues, it's definitely fun to try out once!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
