A bundle of ramble

It's a bit of a struggle, this life. Don't worry, I'll try not to make this post as some pitiful story about  my mood and feelings lately. I just wanted to give you an update on what's been going on and why I haven't written anything for a long time.

By this time I think it has became quite obvious that I'm very weak when it comes to giving into my laziness. It's bad,and it's even worse when I'm not feeling a 100%. And the reason behind that is the fact that I'm currently fighting for my place in this world, not seeing any progress. I get strongly affected by the progress I make. It makes me even more inspired. But, it works in the opposite way also...and I just can't help but feel bummed.

Somehow, I always have this itch to write...keep writing, keep expressing myself, keep creating. But despite the fact I absolutely love making new blog posts, I can't get myself to write about anything I usually write about. I don't want to change the main "theme" of my blog with posts like this one so I usually contemplate whether to write a crappy beauty/fashion/life blog post or absolutely nothing. But it has been too long so I felt as if I owe an explanation.

One thing no one knows about me is that I have periods of being really optimistic, energetic, inspired and then another day comes along with the pessimistic period that lasts for a while. And it simply snaps between those two. But I'm a person that lives in a moment so it's not noticeable to others. Only I feel it. And it makes me really frustrated because I feel like I fail myself when I don't write a post, or work on a song, or just go out on a sunny day just because I, at that moment, don't see the point.

This blog means a lot to me. For many different reasons. I love to write about things and share my opinion. And to get a response from some of the readers is even better. So, to keep up with regular updating I decided to write posts in advance and make a use of that "I'm so happy, let's go do something" time. That way there is no way I miss a date to post. I'm making it an obligation to get myself back on track. Go trough this crappy phase and learn to live and be happy.

P.S. Sorry for all the pessimism but I just feel like s**t. ;) Byyy

Home for the holiday

Helloo to all my dearest readers! I wanted to take a look at these past few days of my, so called, vacation. Since it was May 1st, or rather known as International Workers Day, I took a few days off to spend with my family. And what was supposed to be a 5 day break turned into 6 days, which then turned into 7 days and today is the last day I get to be lazy. I would say I'm completely ready to get back to work and be productive...but honestly...that would be one big fat lie.

I'm not sure how all of you celebrate this holiday, but I'll tell you a little about what we do. In my hometown it is tradition to go to this park where they give out bean soup, or stew, to people. I love this tradition because the food is really good. Of course, the day couldn't go without some candy floss and tons of ice cream too.

The mayor also gives out flowers every year which I sadly didn't get. I have seen the president, though. That was kind of interesting. What was scary was the big, too dark cloud that was right above the park...and strangely there was terrible thunder but with no rain. All and all, it was a good day. We have gotten wet later on cause of rain, but it was fun.
The whole weekend was absolutely fantastic, I had a splendid time if I may say so! Lots of food, even more sleeping and quite a few new clothing items.

Hopefully all of you had a lovely weekend as well. This is all from me for now. Stay well!

Fun weekend in Ljubljana

Hy there! I thought I would update you of everything that happened last weekend when my dear friend Honey came to visit me in this cute little town I'm currently living in. You can also take a look at her blogs. Since we both are huge lovers of everything old and architecture and nature, our days consisted of walking by the river, visiting the beautiful park Tivoli and my favourite, the castle...or fortress. Whatever it is google Ljubljanski grad.

                                                           (Here‘s me feeling excited!)

While we were sitting on a random bench somewhere downtown, trying to think of what could we have for lunch, out of nowhere ~ a CALVIN KLEIN-MODEL looking guy came up to us asking for a lighter. Unfortunately, we couldn't help him since non of us smoke so then he walked away to his puppy and hugged it ~ #awwww. I briefly remember staring at him thinking holy s*#t! You know how some people make smoking 10x more attractive? Well this guy takes it to a whole new level, I kid you not! This is why I need to get a lighter  and carry it around. If nothing, it can be a good conversation starter ~ wink,wink.

    (Exuse my face)

I can honestly say, I have never had so much fun. I love discovering new places and small bits no one else cares about so my heart was filled with bliss. I felt like a spy and I loved it. I also know my partner in crime enjoyed it as much as I did ~ yes I do read your posts, you little Earth living creature. Hopefully we will have lots and lots more adventures like this in the future because we both love travelling and if I may say, the future is pretty promising.

New shampoo review

Hello lovely people! First of all, I just have to say sorry for not posting anything in a really long time. I usually post every Sunday so I only missed the last one, but still. For some reason I couldn't connect to the Internet for a few days so that sucked big time!

This won't be a long blog post like usual but is very important! Mainly because it concerns hair and I am VERY obsessive over how I take care of mine.

I just wanted to write a review on two shampoos I bought some time ago. In the store I must have spent around 30 mins comparing all the shampoos. Since I have extremely thin hair and not so much of it, it is really hard for me to choose which shampoo is right for me. That's why I try to use mild ones, without much chemicals, that also nurture my roots. And that is where these come in:

I'm not exactly sure of the brand, it's not really written anywhere. I'm sure though, you can get them in Slovenia. 'Cause that's where I am right now. And of course, the first thing that captured my eye are the bottle designs. Reminds me of those in hair saloons, really professional. However,they are spretty small. Only 230 ml for 1 EUR when I can get a shampoo of 1 L for 0.89 EUR.

This little guy has a scent of a birch tree. It is to make the hair stronger and to grow faster. Can never be fast enough,yeah? Also it is good for frequent washing of hair, and it smells amazing! Really refreshing, kind of woodsy, and the smell stays for a really long time. =)                 

 

The second shampoo has a scent of a nettle plant. This one you can also use for frequent hair washing. It is a little bit different. It reduces hair loss ~ well...it's supposed to ~ and it also makes it grow faster. Personally I 

prefer the birch scent but this one is also refreshing and stays on your hair for a long time.

I try to wash my hair as less as possible. However, with my hair there is no #seconddayhair. The grease doesn't help at all in makeing it look good. It's just greasy! So I do try to use shampoos that are gentle to hair and mostly chemical-free.

Depending on the type of hair you have, choose what you feel is the best for you. In my life I used some really bad shampoos that did not work with my hair and no matter how much would I wash it, it would still be dirty. But then, they would be perfect for someone else. So it's basically all about experimenting. That's all I can say...go and spend some time in the shampoo isle. And have fun with it!

Random mini shopping haul

Hello lovely people! Inspired by the sun shining upon us, I thought it would be a good idea to take a walk around the city centre today. A store here and a store there and I did find myself some bits. So I thought I would share with you the experience, the anecdotes and the final result of that day.

Since I remember, I've been obsessing over hair buns. Mainly because there is no way for me to create one with how little hair I have. Desperate times call for desperate measures, so what do I do? I go and buy a bun scrunchie. This is actually the first time I tried it and I admit I probably lost half off my hair during the process of making the bun. I‘m still not sure if the scrunchie is visible or not because I can feel it but on the picture it looks normal....your thoughts? Btw this ridiculous picture is the result od acumulated mess in the corner that had to be cropped out.

The name of the store I went to is H&M. While on my adventure, I discovered the 3rd floor of the store that basically has all the cool designed clothes. Batman shirts, cool graphic shirts, denim jackets, all that stuff. You know I was in heaven! Even though I'm changing my style I did buy a really nice, simple but interesting sweatshirt, perfect for spring and lazy days.

And I have to tell you the anecdote that happend. So I was in this store called Müller just looking around when suddenly this lady comes up to me to help her look for the price of some foundation product. And that's ok, I don't mind helping people. BUT...then she started to tell me about all the good products she uses, how she's 70 and looks younger. She was trying to tell me something about stomach peeling gel, how great it is, but was so bad at English I was just there standing trying to look interested and not to laugh. And I wasn't meant to be rude or anything because she was really nice, saying: "You're very beautiful young girl, I just want to help you. I know a lot about cosmetics." Basically I just found her interesting cause she was like a happy/jumpy ball and she literally made my day, so thank her!
