30 day challenge: About me, day 29

Day 29: Something you hope to change about yourself. And why.

My weight. I have struggled with my weight my whole life and it is the one thing I am the most insecure about. I hope that by the end of this summer I will be able to get to my ideal weight.

30 day challenge: About me, day 28

Day 28: What if you were pregnant or got someone pregnant, what would you do?

First of all it would be kind of impossible for me to get preganant right now since I do not have a boyfriend. If I would get pregnant, however, I would keep the baby. I think I am at the point of my life where I could take care of it. It would be hard financially since I do not have a job but I would make it work somehow.

Day 27: Whats the best thing going for you right now?


I do not have many great things going on right now since exam period is approaching and I am mainly focused on that. I would say, however, the best thing right now is just being loved by my family and friends and knowing I have their support.

Would you rather - beauty edition tag

1.) Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?
I would rather lose my palette any eyeshadows since I do not use them every day.
2.) Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
This one is very hard for me because I love my hair but I would chop it off since they grow back anyway.
3.) Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
A pink cheek.
4.) If you had $1000 to spend, would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
Makeup.
5.) Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
Eyeliner as lipstick since you can find nice, lip appropriate colours.
6.) Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?
I never shopped at Mac or Sephora.
7.) Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?
One lip colour for sure.

Summer clothes in winter because I can layer them.

Bright nails all year round.

Never use lipgloss since I can use lipstick or just lip balm.

This one is hard because I do not want to do either. I think I would go with sharpie ones since I think I would look weird without none at all.

Without nail polish for sure.

What are your answers?

Recommendation: Shiver (spoiler alert)

My recommendation for this week is a book by Maggie Stiefvater called Shiver.


Shiver is the first book in The Wolves of Mercy Falls series and it was published in 2009. The second one is called Linger and the third one is called Forever. This book talks about Grace and Sam. Sam is a wolf-human. During the cold months he transforms into a wolf and during warmer months he is a human. Grace lives near a forest and is observing the wolves. She was also bitten by few of them when she was little and ever since she feels a strong connection to Sam. She falls in love with him and she is very excited whenever she sees him. They finally get together after 6 years of just observing each other and are unseperable ever since. They also want to find a cure which would make Sam a human for ever and not just during warmer months. At the end of the book they finally find a cure and Sam stays human since then.

How to lose weight

1. WATER. Drink plenty of water, at least 6-8 cups a day.

2. FRUIT and VEGETABLES. This is really going to help you lose weight. Also try to eat raw fruit and vegetables if you can.

3. PORTION CONTROL. This was a huge one for me. Portion control is so important. If you eat out try to eat just half of the meal and take the other half home for the next day. Also if you cook for yourself, try to eat just a half of it, if you are used to larger portions now.

4. SLEEP. If you sleep enough you are actually losing weight during your sleep. Try to sleep at least 8 hours each day.

5. CUT DOWN ON BAD FOODS. Try to eat as less candy and fast food as you can. If you want something sweet first drink water because sometimes you are just thirsty and not hungry. Try eating fruits or maybe dark chocolate with a high percentage of cacao.

30 day challenge: About me, day 26

Day 26: Have you ever thought about giving up on life? If so, when and why?



I have thought about giving up on life few times in the past but to be honest I do not remeber when or why. I guess at the time I thought something bad as going on in my life. Something worth giving up my life for but now that I look back I know that it was not something big and it was nonsense at the time.
