Homemade Cosmetics

When it comes to my skin I have to be really careful. It is not that I am being fussy o anything, but it is that I happen to have the worst rashes ever. You don't believe me? Three days ago I got a massive nettle rash from rubber gloves... Yes, rubber gloves from a pound shop. I was wearing them for less than two hours while making some bathbombs and soup. Because I wanted to protect myself from the food colouring... Well, my hands didn't come out blue, but a horrible, itchy red that drove me crazy for hours. 

But if we put aside this horrible accident my bestie and I mannaged to produce some marvellous treats for ourselves. And the whole house smelled of cinnamon and orange... still is, three days later. I haven't tried any of them yet, but my POLISHgirl says they are amazeballs! I did try our eyeliner though. I swear to God, I am never using anyother eyeliner. The one we made is the ULTIMATE EYELINER! No smudging for hours, and no swealing... and it is sooo light. I'm not trying to oversell it but I was deeply convinced that it is bulshit...Here I am I proved myself wrong and proudly admit, to it!!!!

Biographies & Stuff

I believe I have developed a serious addiction to autobiographies... I started off with Stephen Fry and now it is Alan Cummings... I find it empowering to read about people's lives ... Why is that modern people are so obsessed with the lives of the rich, famous or currently popular characters?! Why is it so exciting to put stick your nose right into the business of others?! I never used to be like that... but lately I have developed a hunger for information, I want to know the cause and effect for someone to become who they are... And I guess it so happens that I read about celebrities, because no one will publish the diary of an ordinary human being right? NOT that I find ant human being ordinary, it is just that not all are domed to be famous. 

I some times wonder what makes one person more likely to become a star than the other... What qualities do the hip people possess? Except from knowing the right people, and being extremely hard working. What makes us look up to certain things and look down on others?

Always yours,

XOXO

We Found Love in the Center of LDN

We are now making organic, vegan cosmetics... Can you imagine that?!, Yours truly a cosmetic goddess! So far we have made some soaps and some bath bombs, which if I may say are THEBOMB.COM!Check us out on

Am I a Stranger Now

After an year and a half living with people, I understand the saying living with a stranger. Some times I even feel myself as being a stranger. Unable to talk right, or do right I stumble around my apartment wondering who I am and what the hell did I do with that wonderful, full of sunshine girl I once was. Have turned myself unwillingly into an old hag, or this is just age and solitude turning me into a hateful spite?

What is it that draws our patience and tolerance towards the other so thin? Why from not being able to live without each other we now pass our lovers with disdain and boredom? I cannot recognize you anymore, you fool.

GIVE ME BACK MY ME!

So... Sunday

I definitely am not as easy as a Sunday morning... It has been a very tense and irrational Sunday, but now that it is over I can safely turn back and give it an overview. 

We have safely launched my LDN boy's first blog... About cars, of course. You can find him at http://dcaruser.blogspot.co.uk/

We managed to save our blankets from drowning and we bought ourselves some magnificent rooibos and vanilla tea. I have done around 2 tons of ironing and fell asleep long before I even taught of having dinner.

Later today I will be posting some book reviews for you and I will catch up on my courses. 

Always yours,
XOXO

Saturday Dreaming

On the whole the day was positive. As agreed upon earlier this week, my bestie and I went to visit a bridal/ flower shop in Upminster. I am telling you the place is fabulous... You can find the most amazing fake flowers I have ever seen... Blue, aquamarine, green, pine cone, silver, white, gold - whatever your tiny heart wishes. And it is all there for you to find in a derelict old warehouse near the High house. Absolutely fab!

I realize I have began to sound a lot like a teenager and I promise I will see to make changes and enrich my "Äll-grown-up" vocabulary to impress you and all my new British buddies... After all I am known to be a Woman of knowledge and literature. It is high time I show this to the world.

Meanwhile, your dear LDN boy was fussing around cars... fixing a BMW of  friend. Cars are what I might someday lose  him to, but alas... he has to have a hobby right?!

That is all from me for today.

Always yours,

XOXO

It has been a hell of an year

I haven't been around for most of 2015... I know, but it has been a hellish roller coaster for me. From changing jobs, to cutting my hair off and changing apartments I barely head time to grasp some air, what's left for writing in my diary or here. I am taking a few steps back now, to recollect what has happened and I  feel sorry I didn't share most of it with you. If there is still any readers out there. 

I am living in my new home now, with my new awesome flatmates ( a crazy rocker girl and her marvelous husband to be), we have a cat, named Lucifer and we read books, create stuff and live as healthy as put chocolate addiction allows us. 

I am working as a translator as I have always been destined to and I am working on increasing my library as any sworn book geek would. I miss my friends to pieces but I have learned to live my life vicariously through social media with them. 

All is well...

I'll be writing to you soon.

Always yours,

XOXO
