Student hack tip

I got a little tip for coffee and chocolate lovers. If you are able to pour extreme amount of caffeine inside your body and are still mad because the effects are either very short timed or simply your body is so used to it that you got no effects from it anymore try moccacino. The sugar from chocolate will give you some kick and paired with caffeine it will become a double punch and kick. Just don't overdo it if you don't want to develop diabetes and also this tip is only for that extra energy that you need very fast because simple black coffee is still the best. Cheers.

Snoozing banned, breakfast approved

Recently i've took a challenge to control both my mind and my body by forcing myself to wake up on the first sound of alarm clock after counting backwards from 5 to 0 and told myself to never use snooze option again- unbelievable but from the first day that i tried this thing until now i really forgot about the existence of the snooze option. And that gets me to the next part of my new control and thaat's.. i started to eat breakfast. Before i was always late and had to run out from my house in 15 minutes but now that i am able to decide when to wake up i got A LOT of extra time so i don't have any reason to pass breakfast anymore. But tbh i am still really lazy and slow in the morning so my everyday wake up bowl is made from Aplro soy yogurt and granola with plenty of chocolate bites (sometimes a add a lil bit of yuzu). Soo the reason why i was always so grumpy and dead in the morning i might have found the cure after 23 year of living on this planet.. B R E A K F A S T and N O S N O O Z E.

Green is the new black

Because my hair is black now or at least very much dark brown i don't think that wearing a black or dark beanie would look good and also why stay at black color when you can choose from such a vibrant range of colored beanies and make your all-black outfit shine even more. I've been obssesed with a dark forest green for a while and i ove the hoodies in that color so i decided to go for this color on my beanie too. Yayy

(the green that i meant is a lil bit darker)

Steve Lacy

My playlist has been on hold for a while now because nothing really catched my ears for me to update it but today was the lucky day and i've found out that Steve Lacy released a new album The Lo-Fis. So if you are interested in R&B and Soul and need to listen to something for “brain recharge” chill session this is your sign.

endings ....

Very sorry for such a long pause and i am back for a while.

Mr.Sunshine

Tbh all the new k-dramas that just came out are.. meeh so i've decided to rewatch Mr.Sunshine because this drama is perfection. The cinematography, storyline, beautiful soundtrack and gorgeous actors and acting- really excellent in every way. I rarely get so hyped about kdramas so much and usually forget about them once i finish but this one stayed in my mind for a very long time and it was calling me to watch it again. So i did.

Puffer jackets

In europe the really cold weather is back and this year it's supposed to be the worst one after few years of usually not so cold okayish winter times. There are going to be a lot of snowstorms and sliding through the way while walking in early mornings and freezing hands and legs and faces /face masks are actually a life savers atm/. So the only way to survive this weather is a puffer jacket and many layered sweaters and trousers under that you always have to strip them all whenever you arrive somewhere but yea when you don't want to freeze you just gotta do it. But it's beautiful- snowing scenery while walking and freezing around the city with a cup of coffee is pretty satisfying.

The Song Of Achilles

I've been reading stuff related to my future and on advancing my skills and myself so much i almost forgot about how much i love to read books just to rest my brain a little bit. So when i saw the title and the book cover of this one my mind went “yea girl, go with this one” and thumbs up to my mind i'm on my page 50 and so far it is really good and i am enjoying it very mucho. 

Matcha brownies

I've catched a pretty bad habit of scrolling through Tik Tok whenever i got a minute to spare and i always felt very guilty about laughing and dying for 10 mins straight at some few sec long videos but if you are an Tik Tok addict like me then you should understand. But on the bright side TikTok is used for a lot of good things now like teaching some skills and secrets for Photoshop or taking nice photographs or if you want to learn about stocks or how to learn and become a social manager and make some money? Those are all there to. So of course that there would be many fantastic recipes for dumb ppl like me who need very easy recipes like level 1 with only few steps needed. And thanks to this app i've learned to make a dalgona coffee, banana fritters and now i'm about to make some matcha BROWNIES!! So this is just my call for you to go and search up good things from TikTok.

.. and of course as always my last message for life

guys, i realized that i am too lazy to do every days posts or to be exact it always depends on my moods so don't be surprised if i will disappear for a longer period of time

I have always wore ankle socks only because i thought that it looked better with my rolled up trousers but it is so cold right now i just can't keep them bare anymore and i like it. It actually looks better and kinda like a part of outfit and what's important- it keeps your legs warm. So don't be scared of a more higher length than ankle length and embrace your white socks, adidas socks or patterned socks whatever just have fun with them.

I've been watching so many korean profiles with simple home interior designs my feed is just full of these and architecture and bunny pics. Mostly these interiors look so calming to my soul with all those white, beige, brown and earth colors and secondly all the furniture looks so simple and useful if you get me??? Definitely my apartment is gonna be in this vibe with a touch of black tho because black is my soul colour. 

My hair is three toned- natural (black-brownish) on the top, dark brown in the middle and dark green at the end- because i was a silver hair coloured asian girl once upon a time until i didn't threw black on it again and when black faded it became very light brown and then i put some turqouise colour on it that's how i ended with these colours fyi. Now i have definitely decided to never ever dye my hair again (pray that i really won't change my mind anymore) and want to go back to black. But dying my hair black just meant destroying my hair a little bit more everytime (and since i wash my hair way too often i have to dye it like every month) i've decided for a much better alternative and that is semi-permanent colour hair dye in a form of hair mask. So for the sake of healthy hair i looked up all the “good brands” that aim for careful hair care and that's how i came across Maria Nila and their Colour Refresh range. I've actually used this product once when i still had my silver hair and wanted it to be purple and from what i remember the colour lasted pretty long about 6-7 washes- that's when my hair was lavender- and my hair also looked very much healthier since it's like a hair mask with some pigment in it. So i am very excited for my black color and watch me become a full black haired asian person again. Back to my roots peeps i don't want to see any brown anymore. ALSO very important- this brand is 100% vegan and cruelty-free!

I love shirts, satin shirts, basic shirts, oversized shirts,... every shirt in the world but i can't really wear them in winter unless i wear like three t-shirts under it because i am always cold. So when i realized that there are actually shirts that are THICK (preferably wool blended ones) enough to wear them with a thin sweater or a t-shirt only if it is reeeally warm i was way too excited to go online and order everything. Tbh it is actually just a jacket made to look like a shirt but who cares it's a very warm shirt for me.

I've been stuck in a cycle of work-study-netflix-repeat and i am slowly learning to add something new to my routine and looking for inspirations so i'm not stuck forever in this reel. It's just small steps but i know that i want to change and that's important to me.

I've been vibing and chilling today and half a day yesterday doing nothing just watching movies and enjoying good food. My every year Christmas tradition is just watching Home Alone and czech fairytales with a cup of tea and cookies from morning till night having breaks to pee or eat potato salad only.  But back to reality- tomorrow i am going back to work because this doing nothing is more tiring than i have thought.

Sale season is officialy started but i don't really need anything since whenever i need something i always buy it right away because i am a very impatient person and i have to get things right.at.this.moment or i get very mad. But checking online stores is also one of my very unheathy habits and while i was scrolling through all these sale craziness i realized that i don't really own many simple printed brand tees and the sale happened to concentrate around it so my hand was very quick to “add to cart” and “pay with card” and that's my story of this year's after Christmas sale.

I love high waisted anything so when i saw how these wide leg pants can make your waist appear much smaller i was right in. Wide leg pants look so good with oversized tees or hoodies or whatever for that comfy without trying too hard look but when you want to change a little bit but still stay comfortable wear them with a tight top or crop top to show of show your pretty waist and throw on a jacket if desired and voilá!

I was a really big book worm a few years ago and i was able to finish a thick 1000 page book in few days like nothing being able to concentrate on it from start to finish without any side thoughts. But i don't know what happened now i just can't seem to do the same thing anymore because my mind is running full speed- when thinking about something i have to add another different thought so when i'm reading a book i just simultaneously think about ten different things and when i try really hard to concentrate on it i just get anxious and get really nervous. That's why i've been practicing to get back in the hustle of nonstop reading by reading one or two pages every night and trying to really concentrate on every word and line. I don't know if it really works but what different choices do i have?

Learn to be dependent on yourself only and observe.

Guys, tomorrow is officialy 24th ???DECEMBER??? already like how did that happen wasn't it like summer just a few weeks ago.. well

To kick start our immune system with winter coming in a tasty way i am wholeheartedly recommending you to go and buy a jar of yuzu (made from the fruit Yuja, similar to citron). It's a traditional korean tea made from mixing yuzu (it's like a marmalade) with hot water and the taste is heavenly- like honey lemon and tangerine mixed together. You can also use yuzu as a marmalade for your bread or make a cold yuzu lemonade but seriously the simplest and warmest way to enjoy it is just a simple cup of yuzu tea during cold days. Now for some health benefits information, it contains more vitamin C than raw lemon juice and it is also a good cold remedy or sore throats and it can also better you skin complexion! So what are you still waiting for?

I adore vintage style decorations especially lamps because lightning can change and impact the mood of your room the most and all those old school designs are just so elegant and beautiful and such a treat for my eyes. Seriously once i get my apartment i will have all those pretty lamps everywhere so my next hobby in mind is lamp hunting. 

Netflix is really getting better and better with its release of good horror series. When i came across this one i was a little bit sceptical since koreans never really did anything that would scare the sh-- out of me BUT after this one i am changing my mind and i have to say that this is just all scary, creepy, horrible, jaw-dropping,.. and i can't stop myself to stop watching because it is so good i love being so scared that i won't even go to pee at night alone. So if you are okay about exorcismus and those occult stuff i really reallyy recommend it. Also the main priest character is very h o t.

Don't be ashamed of the things that you like to do just because it doesn't belong to “social norm”. It's your life, enjoy every minute of it nobody is going to judge you it's just in your head.

Tiny bags are cute for sure but unfortunately there is no invention of Hermiona's never ending space purse -yet- so i have to have my extra tote bag with me always to put all the crap that i need throughout the day. But since there are so many different styles of tote bags from basic cotton to leather ones i'm not even complaining and actually like to choose different styles for all my fits. Also they are super convenient since it's like an open space throw in everything you need and then good luck finding it. 

My skin was the worst about 3 years ago that's when i had my acne flare ups all over my cheeks and forehead and i was super depressed because i looked like a walking tomato. But luckily it slowly disappeared after few months but my skin was left with many pink and purple scars on my cheeks and i was so desperate i tried every thinkable thing to get rid of it - from NEVER DO IT PLEASE putting lemon on it, baking soda, harsh peelings, diy sugar peelings... surprisingly nothing worked and from those things i probably got some extra new pimples too. But you know what you will never gain the knowledge if you won't try the bad choices so after all those miserable years finally now i can for 100% give you my secret tips to get rid of those scars and also how to minimalize breakups and get rid of pimples the fastest and safest way.

GLYCOLIC ACID from The Ordinary is my lifesaver. It mildly exfoliates skin but it's not harsh so you can use it every night or every other day if your skin is very sensitive. It makes your skin glowing and you can see it right after you put it on- i always use a cotton pad- but warning if your skin is not used to chemical peels the first time will sting a little bit and can be a little red but for safety always test patch! This toner made my acne scares much lighter after few months of constant use. It also helps to heal your new zits very fast so usually when my skin is acting up it lasts for maximum of 3 days and then i'm clear again.

VITAMIN C serum is something that you absolutely need if you want to lighten your scars and brighten you overal complexion. The combo of the Glycolic acid and Vitamin C is like a superpower couple that completely changed my skin and if i were to choose two products for the rest of my life it would be these two and some face cream. My skin was so dull after all the tries to heal it but after i regularly used Vitamin C for 3 months i saw the changes that made even my mom gasp with surprise (she is the biggest critic of my skin) because it was glowing and looked so healthy. I've been using it for almost a year now and let's just say when i forget to put it only for a day (i use it after Glycolic Acid at night) i can see big difference the next morning- very tired looking complexion. So go and grab your bottle for your glow. 

Derma roller is just an extra something if you are okay with pain and want your face products to double the work. It's a roller with tiny needles (please do your research about the sizes and how to) and basically you just roll it all over your face -especially around the areas where you got scars- then you add your serums and creams that will go deeper than normal and that's it. I've been using this for half a year changing the roller every 2-3 months and using it every 3-4 days depending on the condition of my skin. It certainly helps your skin to be more active since you well.. roll the needles all over it so it also makes your skin heal much faster. I noticed the difference after like 3 uses after which my skin looked very plump and healthy. Just remember that you shouldn't overuse it even if you will see very good results don't abuse your skin and use it only once or twice a week and remember to sanitize it after every use and before you use it. I would recommend this only if you really only have scars left and not any active acne since rolling the bacteria all over the face is not a very smart idea. 

The trend of Dalgona coffee happened a few months ago when lockdown started i know but i was never really interested since the recipe is just INSTANT EW coffee and sugar whipped together. But i've been so bored lately that i just decided to try it.. so i bought EW instant coffee and some oat milk to -stay healthy- and i will make this thing when i will be bored again. But i must say that it looks really pretty on photos so if it won't be drinkable then at least i could use it to make some aestheshit photos. 

Lately i've been learning to appreciate both sides and it's going pretty well and i feel more peaceful.

I was really tired of Netflix in our country because the movies or series that you could choose from were ZERO. That's why i was shocked when they finally added few more than good asian series that are all based on anime and the theme is always about surviving and a bloody mess. So !warning! but the series that i'm going to talk about now is 16+ so kids listen to me and really watch it only if you are good with very realistic chopped hands and legs. I warned you, ok. And to my 16+ readers if you love action movies full of blood and monsters and gore scenes with some hint of comedy and a pretty main lead i say go and binge watch it. It's just 10 episodes each one about one hour long but trust me you will finish it like nothing and then you will have to really patiently wait with me for season 2. Sad.

You know, my favourite hobby is sitting at pretty coffee shops enjoying a good cup of oatmeal cappuccino or my favourite batch brew and minding my business and now that the world is drastically different i can't do that anymore so i had to find a different substitute. I hate drinking coffee made at home because i think that i need that coffee shop atmosphere to really enoy it so i swapped it for a more healthy choice - tea.... and cookies. So my new “quarantine stay at home” hobby is a nice cup (or 3 cups if you want to overcaffeinate yourself) of pearl green tea and some cookies preferably from M&S like a proper grandma way of resting after a very long day of doing nothing. And i deserve it and you too.

Never understood people who did their nails super long because it always looked so uncomfortable to me but then i thought that maybe they just don't have to use their hands much so why should i judge their choice and why can't they have those super long nails? Well, me being an artist and a barista i always have to keep my nails short so no dirt can come under my fingernails and also working with short nails is much comfortable. And because they were always so short i never really thought about painting them in any color and just used transparent nail polish to keep them healthy. But recently i started to grew fond of very bright colors and didn't want to apply this fondness to my wardrobe YET so i bought a bunch of colorful nail polishes and started to paint my nails in colors that described my mood best so that's like painting them at least two times a week but yes, i feel good everytime i look at them so it's kind of a little self-love for myself or my hands.

To release all the negativity that's bringing your mood down read this to really see, what you should start doing for YOU because it's your life.

Do you remember the hype about Lush bath bombs that was the only topic that was talked over by 90's kids a few years ago? I don't mean that the hype already ended but it is certainly less talked about but i want to bring it back because this brand truly deserves it. I've been a loyal customer of Lush for few years now, classic starter with bath bombs and shower stuff then moved on to hair care but the only things that i will never leave for something else are their perfumes and Charity Pot cream. Their perfumes are unique and my advice is go and sniff them a few times before buying because the smell changes every few hours and is always different. My significant love in a bottle is Lust and i think that i will stick until the end of my life. The second product is Lush Charity Pot which is a lotion for everything, a lifesaver. Firstly 100% of the price they donate to support many different organisations that you can choose for yourself ( the information is always on the lid ) and secondly it is truly a lifesaver. Charity Pot is a really rich and creamy lotion and smells like butter cookies to me and i use it mainly in winter when my hands are really dry or on dry spots around the body, i even put it on my face when it was so dry and nothing helped anymore and truly the next day i woke up my skin was saved. So if you really want to try something from Lush go for a Charity Pot.

Did i mentioned somewhere that i love scrolling through instagram only to look for outfit inspirations? So that's how i noticed the pattern in trend for this winter- long coats, oversized hoodies, comfy pants. And what more can i say to this combination besides yes, so stylish and yes, so cozy. Also no it is certainly not a boring combination at all if you will go for some bold color choice so here are some of my picks from simple ones to fancy ones.

I remember when i watched anime Nana a few years ago and fell in love with the overall punk-rock vibe and Nana's mentions of “Vivienne Westwood” brand. The brand belongs to Dame Vivienne Isabel Westwood who is a British designer and who also brought modern punk rock fashion into the mainstream world. Pretty sure that you've seen the famous pearl choker necklace with the orb on social medias somewhere since it's a piece that everyone wants to own right now. The sad thing is not so many people know that the original design is from Vivienne Westwood so there are many dupes around the market. Vivienne Westwood jewelry is most favourite because of the orb symbol “The Vivienne Westwood Orb resembles Sovereigns Orb which is one of the British crown jewels, that was created for the coronation of King Charles II. The jewelled aspect of the Orb links to Westwood's anchored position in the British fashion industry.” I myself own a necklace from Vivienne a piece that i love so much partly because i will always connect the meaning of it with Nana.

If someone asked me what is my dream guy atm my answer would be for sure Dpr Ian aka Christian Yu. Not only is he so damn handsome with the tattoos and a bad boy vibe and all of that but he is also a super talented musician and director that also happened to drop a new single “No Blueberries” ( the mv gave me very much Donnie Darko vibes ) so *wink wink* go and support my guy.

These are from CL's mv and this is how i want my next relationship to look like.

The goodness and the reminder at the end again.

coming back after a few hours to finish my 19 December post what a dedication

I was gifted a Davines hair shampoo today and that reminded me of the time when i dyed my natural black hair to silver and all i could use for my hair so it wouldn't fall out were hair products from Davines. It's a family owned brand and their products are all formulated with natural origin ingredients mixed with synthetic ingredients. There are many categories from hair care for bleached hair, for frizzy hair, thin hair and all of them have such a beautiful packaging i would probably just buy them all simply because of that. But luckily not only are their packages beautiful their products really DO help and a lot, especially their Davines oi-oil that lasts for a very long time (and the smell is just..uaaah) because each time you just need a pea sized amount even if your hair is thick as hell. It is also a brand that many good hair dressers who care about quality use - not only their hair care products they even have their own line of hair colors and bleach. So if you really want something good for your hair Davines is the answer.

For my winter jackets and coats collection i don't think that i have enough so i was thinking about adding another color and style to my collection. So i just scrolled through instagram for some inspirations and came across long coats with lighter colors like beige or light grey. I am missing a lighter color coat from my closet and i don't really own a -very- long coat so it was decided. I am going for a hunt of a long coat in light grey color.

My most favourite ice-cream flavour is banana if i really had to choose one from fruity flavours but to find a good quality banana ice cream without any artifical flavours is a pain and actually the only good brand is Haagen Dazs but in our country they don't sell those 500ml pints of banana flavour idk why but they just don't. So i had to find my own way and that's how i came across this super simple recipe that is also super healthy ( well only if you will make it healthy ). So just take however many bananas your heart desires to , cut them all into smaller pieces and freeze them for like 4-5 hours maybe then take your blender and throw them all the bananas in. This is my choice of doing it since i think that it tastes much bette- i always pour in a little bit of milk because then it will taste like a frozen banana milkshake ice-cream- and then blend it until smooothness. You can actually add anything you want to like frozen other fruits or chocolate or peanut butter idk let your taste buds decide just start with the frozen bananas. Enjoyyyy.

This is for them days where you feel like you are lost or when you feel like you suck. 

Yesterday i accidentaly overcaffeinated myself to exhaustion i was too tired to start my brain and write something so here i am freshly woke up and excited to write now.

I had a huge flashback yesterday after i checked my tiny handpoke tattoo with a forget-me-not flower done 3 years ago on the inside of my wrist and right away i wanted to update the artist about how much it meant for me for those last 3 years. So if you are thinking about getting something tiny like this, just do it because just looking at this tiny thing few years later will make you remember so many memories that you went through, the ups and downs in a little tattoo hidden on your body just for your eyes.

Continuing next with my outfit choice i would like to honorably mention or shourt the world the classic white shirt preferably oversized of course. The piece that you can wear both in summer with a pair of sandals like a dress or in winter with a thin sweater tucked under any kind of pants or over culottes. Also it's a piece that you might still think that you can only wear it in formal cases but lemme tell you no-no because do you know what is my most favourite fit when i want to impress myself when i feel ugly ( actually everyone around me ) - wear a black long sleeved tee or actually any tee that you prefer just make it a black color under with a nice oversized shirt over but DON'T button it all up, just enough to show your neckline with a big piece of nice necklace so the space won't be so empty, take a pair of leather pants/leggings, end it with a pair of doc martens and if you want to add a little bit more spice add a beret hat or the kind of hat that you see in Peaky Blinders idk how to call it. Finito, applause.

My go to artist playlist when i am sad or feel empty is for sure Stevie Wonder. I cannot thank enough to this man about how many times he saved me from my miserable depressed times and also i have to give a huge thank you shoutout to my most beloved korean r&b artist Crush because it's actually thanks to his cover that i discovered Stevie Wonder. I am a person who is open to vibe to every kind of music genre but if you were to ask me to choose ONLY one kind of genre it would be r&b for sure ( soul right half step next to it )

Scrolling through instagram about interior inspirations i came across some brutalist interiors and when my friend accidentaly saw one of these posts she just straight away said that she would have committed suicide if she had to live there. It's a mix of simple silhouettes and geometric shapes that are made to look aesthetically very nice but cold and with the textures usually stones and plain i'm not even blaming my friend for saying that. What do you think, is it really that depressing? Because to be honest i kinda like it.

What i'm leaving in 2020 and what YOU are leaving in 2020.

Hi peeps, how ya doing in today's 24 hours?

Probably about two or three months ago i went into a thrift store just out of curiosity because they had a new collection where you can often find designer stuff like Burberry, Prada etc. for much cheaper price -but still expensive for my broke ass- to find something pretty and with a price tag that won't make me cry for another.. week. And while i was pushing away all the overpriced stuff i came across this section of beautiful real leather jackets and my eyes fell in love with one particularly and that's how i ended up going home with a real lamb skin SO SOFT oversized leather jacket like a most happy crackhead ever without feeling so broke because it was like 30$ which is almost like free, right????

Guys, i was searching for a vintage oversized real leather jacket for my whole life and i just found it randomly on a stroll around the city and until now it's still my most favourite piece found from thrifting. So the moral of the story is-never go into a thrift store thinking beforehand about what you want to find and expecting something, just go with the flow.

Are you a matcha person or not? Because there is only the existence of two groups when it comes to this questionable powdered green tea on this planet- the haters or the absolute die-hard fans. I am a person from a second group but only when my matcha is properly done in my favourite drinks - oatmeal matcha latte with some honey , matcha boba with 70% sugar and classic black tapioca pearls or iced matcha ice tea. YUMMINESS HAPPINESS in a cup.

If you had asked me like one year ago, half an year ago maybe even one week ago which color is the one that i wear and like the most? My answer would be black. And if you would ask that question again at this moment my answer would be uhm.. black again. But i would start to ramble to you about my most recent discovery of a color BABY BLUE.

My most favourite piece for this fall-winter for example is my baby blue oversized coat and let me tell you this coat can be paired with so many things in different styles- like if i want to be comfy but still look stylish i will wear it with an oversized hoodie or sweater, pair of leather leggings and my lovely docs or some white wide leg pants and a pair of snickers... genius and comfy. And if you want to wear something more fancy for a date night? A dress in whatever color you desire and a pair of shoes of your choice ( mine docs ). The color of this coat will make you look good ( WARNING many strangers will start to compliment it very randomly ) no matter what you decide to wear it with.

Some reminder for today, tomorrow, or for the time when you will really need to remember and say this to myself:

Recently i've been looking for apartments but because of my high expectations i still didn't found one that i would be ok with- with its pricing, how it looks, location etc. so i've decided to just not be so active about it and instead of that manifest so something will come my way. So i just act like i already have my apartment somewhere and have been instead thinking about how i want my bedroom interior to look like and i've come across these instagram posts from korean peeps (they are seriously stylish at everything why is that) and the trend of having a mattress on the floor and i just love it so much just look at these, why does it look muuch cozier when ur missing a bed? Like why do you need a bed when you can just jump down and hide in this heaven.

My fashion “trend” that i've fell in love today is the existence of satin shirts and ribbed pants bcs my Zara order have finally arrived today and those were the two pieces that i didn't really had high expectations about but they turned to be my two most favourite pieces atm. Because you can wear an oversized satin shirt with everything- basic pair of jeans, loose trousers, wide leg pants or a long skirt but most importantly pairing a black shirt with black ribbed pants is such a comfy and chick outfit with some details with necklaces and rings ummm *chef kiss*

Let's start our conversation about health and the first word that pops into my head is kimchi. Kimchi is a traditional korean side dish made from fermented and salted nappa cabbage and i'm sure that you have heard about it at least for once in your life and if not then you are missing a lot my friend. The taste is so good, you can make so many dishes with it or just eat it plain with rice and so many health benefits also most importantly you know how koreans always has those flawless beautiful glass skins? THE SECRET IS THANKS TO KIMCHI! 

I have been wearing my hair short with many random colors starting from silver, pink, purple, blonde, green to brown and now i'm back to black after more than one year of destroying my hair. Most importantly though it was always on the shorter side and straight because you know, classic asian hair. But something recently hit my head and i've been letting my hair grow for the past few months and tried to hold myself back to not take a pair of scissors in my hands and cut it short.. and well i'm still good because whenever i look in the mirror i actually LOVE my hair black and long. But it being straight for my whole life i started to develop a -not so pretty- jealously on people who had LONG and BLACK and CURLY hair. So i found my old hair curler and did it to my hair too and let me tell you once it grows a little bit more i'm going to love myself so much i will never have that kind of love for anyone else. Ha.

Astrology is a thing that literally saved my life and confidence and showed me all my weak and good points and how i should behave and act in certain situations. So if you are considering to learn more about astrology i strongly recommend it to you and if you feel lost in your life- learn about astrology it will show you many ways that you've probably never even though about. 

But to start the not so pretty side of astrology this year sucked for everyone for sure but idk what about you but i've lost so many things this year, have been so down and low that there were times where i just wanted to.. sleep forever. And then i came across an astrology post that explained everything and basically the year when you become 23 years old falls into a house of isolation which makes so much sense but i won't go any deeper because it's a lot of explanation- but it made me understand that everything happened for a reason so cheers to next year where i will finally gain my luck again.

// i am a Cancer sun, Aries moon so this kinda made sense to my cursed 23 //

So the reminder of the day. Love yourself. Be better for yourself.

hello to my first 24 hours of significant observations and glimpses of my day

I was thinking about getting new shoes for a long time (you have to excuse me but by long time i mean a few days maybe even few hours of excessive obsession) so i scrolled like a mad person through every shop and have found many pairs that i loved but love is not enough so i had to think about which outfits can i wear with them which ones are okay to wear with formal and even casual fits, which ones can only look good in a certain way and then choose the ones that can be fitted with every possible outfit from my existent and even imaginery wardrobe and YES in the end i went for the ones that also happened to be my first choice. It's a pair of white beige Vans OG style 36 LX leather with red detail and excuse me again, i love simple white shoes with red details and i needed to replace my very old Comme des Garcons Converse PLAY with many memories with something more fresh like a fresh start if you get me *wink wink*

LOOK AT THEM so beautiful and cute and good with every outfit but it's time to say goodbye i will still wear you once in a while but yea your memories are heavy........ bye

 So i went in and ordered and picked them up yesterday and wore them today but in-between that time i also happened to start Start-up since Netflix finally decided to release it there and while i was “watching” the drama while scrolling through my social media (multitasking at its finest) i noticed randomly in one scene that Nam Joo-Hyuk the main character was wearing. the. same. shoes. as. meh. -FANGIRLING MOMENT-- 

Discover of the day - while i had a conversation with my co-workers about our situation with lockdown and closing coffee shops and all the depressing stuff we came across the existence of PEA milk. Did you ever heard about it because i certainly never did and can't even imagine the taste. So yeah, pea milk is the main theme for today's 24 hours and i have to go and try coffee with pea milk asap.

I also want to start to ramble here a little bit about the craziness of Christmas shopping during this time of sickness. I did not go to this place to shop for Christmas, my hands were just super dry and sad so i had to go and buy a good hand cream but once i stepped inside a shopping mall i almost wanted to run away right away but my hands were really suffering so sacrificing my health i went in. Applause. And i went out with my White Lotus hand cream for very sensitive hands. 

Continuing my rambling about Christmas and lockdown this year my family (specifically me and my sister and my mom) decided to absolutely pass on giving gifts because we broke (specifically me and my sister) and by the way why should you even give gifts on Christmas when you can just give them on any day. And because we can't go out to enjoy the Christmas mood in the city with a cup of mulled wine (very very sad about this) we just agreed on baking some cookies and then plan to watch Home Alone, Grinch and all the classic good ol' movies. while eating and getting fat
