Back After A While

Hello ~ I'm back after a really long time of absence ^.^'

A lot has happened since I took a break from the blog, and I will try to update about it as soon as I can.

Right now though, I'm visiting my relatives in Paraguay during christmas and newyears ^^ but I will be staying here till the 28th January! I haven't seen my grandparents in 6 years, and since I don't know how long it will take to see them again, I'll have to spend as much time with them as possible!

From now on I will post some about how my life is right now here in Paraguay, and blend it with some updates of what I've been up to recently! ^^

OBS! Since I'm selling my camera to buy a new one (a Canon), I did not bring my old camera with me. So for now there will be a few pictures taken with my cellphone only ^^' I appologize for that.

A sneakpeak of my grandparents house where I'm currently staying ^_^ 
This has been like a second home for me since I was little... 

So.. Reasons I haven't been updating lately:

1. My Job.

I've been experiencing a lot of stress and sickness due to my privatelife and my job. I didn't get booked for a long time which led to economical problems for me. Since it didn't work out between me and my boss, I lost my job.

So, after two months of this, I started to work with my mom at her workingplace. I really liked it there and I haven't felt so welcome at any other job I've ever had before. I ended up working 45 hours a week till the day we left for Paraguay. My only problem now is that I don't know if I will be able to work there after I get home....

2. League of Legends 

Yes, this new hobby of mine has taken over my life. I'm now officially addicted to this drug called League of Legends. 

So, I'm just warning you, this blog might or might not get a liiitttle more geeky from now on ^.^'''' but who knows. 

I started playing LoL in the beginning of this year, thanks to a very persistent boyfriend.

"Just try it once. And if you don't like it, I'll never mention it again."
"Ugh, fine...."

When he comes back after my game....

"... Go away, I just started another one."

After that day, I started to play even more often than he ever did. And after a while, he started to play even more aswell. So now, when we hang out, we usually sit and play together for several hours ^.^'' romantic, huh? <3

Not long after that, I met a couple of amazing people while gaming, and I've made quite a few really good friends! You know who you are *lots of love!!* >3< !!! ~ ~ <3

Soo... I think that's all for now ~ Look out for more updates soon! 

Thanks for reading and I appologize for all the text ..... ''' ~ 

Cya!

Testing make-up

Is it only me who sometimes feel like trying out make-up in the middle of the night?
Excuse the bad quality QwQ cam pics are not always the best but it sure is convenient when you can't see a thing in your room or anywhere else, haha!

Oh, I almost forgot, I got a package today too!

CandyDoll Lipstick "Ramune Pink"

Ta-daah ~ Guess what, this is my first ever purchased CandyDoll product, so tbh I was not sure what to expect but I've been really excited about getting this ^-^

Cute design ~ 

(yes I'm wearing a fake nail because it broke two days ago :c sobsob)

Ooh, I just love the design of this <3 Can't help being excited about now owning a lipstick +.+ and yes, that is because I am aware that my lips does not look good with lipstick (I'm a lipgloss or nothing kind of person?) so I was a bit nervous.. =w=

Soo, the color is one I've been looking for for ages in regular stores but not yet found. Since my lips are a strange color, it's hard to find anything for them at all.. ' lol

PINK. I knew I would probably look rediculous with this color but I'm such a sucker for pink lips and ain't Masuwaka Tsubasa's lips just gorgeous? +.+ <3

I might make a proper review about this lipstick later since I was just gonna post pics of my random make-up right now... ofc I ended up with a longer post. *teehee*




SO PICS! (wearing le CandyDoll lipstick) ~

Uhm, so as I thought, I do not give this lipstick justice since I just look strange with lipstick (especially PINK). But it is exactly the color I was going for so for that, I'm glad ^-^

Too bad I look like a swedish "fjortis" though :c lol sobsob *cries in corner* 

MAKE-UP: 

This is the so called "puppy-look" where I highlight and fake a pair of 'bags' under my eyes which I've envied some people for having since forever. <3 =w= derp. Recently though, I read that it is called 'smiling eyes' in Japan and that it is very much-wanted there now! Funny, I thought I would always be the only one =^.^=

Thanks for reading!

Tea ~ !

I'm currently in a tea-period =w= (again). Ofcourse I always love tea, but sometimes I have weeks(?) where it becomes a part of my daily life and I can almost always be seen holding a cup.

Mostly because I have a bad habit of waiting for tea to cool... and most of the time it gets too cold. So I end up reheating it in the microwave over and over ^.^' maybe because sometimes I just enjoy the warm sensation it gives me when I hold the warm cup between my palms.. it's very calming ~

There are so many ways you can drink tea, (with sugar, milk and so on).
I think I like almost every way! I don't prefer any, I drink it the way I feel like it in that moment ^.^ Though I do prefer honey before sugar! It's quite a difference between them..

Click picture to read =^.^= that's some fun stuff right there!
Like the picture says, tea is quite the magical drink ~

If you were to ask me what tea I like the most, I would say:

"Oh I know, it's uh it's *getting all excited* .... : D  .... I don't know." *slomp*


Uhm, I think I like almost all of them >w< ... I love the excitement of trying a new kind of tea! *weird I know* So when I come to a friends house or someone else and they offer me tea, I take the one I haven't tried before :> It's the variation and all the millions of different flavours of tea that makes it so special and exciting, don't you think so?

Ahha, not to mention how very healthy it is!

At first I thought only green tea was any good for you but it turns out,
all of these has some unique positive effects on your health!
Google will tell you lots more ^w^ !

So, don't be scared and drink away! (that tea I mean :3 mehe)

Eh sry ~ (Personal post) 8D

I know I was gonna try and update more but when I got home my life got spun around a bit and I haven't really been in a position to update ^.^' and I sorta got lazy, paha 8D
Another reason is that I haven't been feeling well and today I actually fell ill so I've just been sleeping it off all day >.< hah.

But lately I've been hanging out with my friends a lot, playing around and I actually took a dip in the lake the other night D8 buhhrr !

In other wooords... I WILL be updating more when I get home in a week or so :3

Kyary pamyu pamyu

One of my favorite models/singers ^^ She's really inspirational for me because of her odd style and supercute looks! Maybe because she looks nothing like me at all .. ehhe .. ehheehe.. ''

She look good in pretty much anything .. !

I love how her musicvideos are so random and odd ^^' hahha.. have you noticed her backround dancers are pretty much always anonymous? I actually think it's an interesting detail ~

You have probably seen this since this was the video that made her known all over the world ^_^ 

Looking out for her new album to come out June 23, 2013 !

Volume UP !

Soo, I haven't made an update for a while and that is because I've been superbusy and well... also because of a little lack of inspiration and confidence.. but I'm getting back on track! :>

So the other day I just made this, for me, huuge discovery! Which I am sure everybody knows by now but it sure took me by surprise!

I've been using this so called volume powder for a while, since I'm a bit obsessed with volume in my hair, and I really liked the results! My hair did get volume and it could stay like that for days ... except the fact that it made my hair feel rough and almost dirty looking so it forced me to wash it more often than I want to..it also left this weird unpleasant smell you had to get used to, not to mention how hard it was to brush with it in and your hair needs to be brushed to look and feel it's best, right?

 Volume Powder:
made to put around scalp for volume and mattification of the hair.

Despite knowing this, I went to the store to buy some more of this powder and the seller responsed with:

- Ah, yes I will show you were our dry shampoos are ~
- ... No, I have that already, I need volume powder.
- Oh, that's the same thing.
- ... eh? o.o;

So uh, apparently, nowadays, people use dry shampoo instead of the volume powder and it works just fine.
I left the store in a very sceptical mode but also eager to try this out with the product that's been standing on my shelf for a year...

Dry shampoo:
Makes the hair look washed and can give volume when spraying around scalp.

This is the kind I'm using and I tried it for volume right away. Guess what.

It works, and I will post a picture of me after I've used it too as soon as I can. 

I know this might be old news for a lot of people but for me it's a totally different story!

Now I have a whole bottle of volumy goodness to use up! 

I really like this because: 

• This doesn't smell!
• It doesn't leave your hair in a horrible rough-looking state the day after
• It won't be in the way of your brush and wont damage your hair as much as hairspray
• It doesn't leave your hands all smelly and powdery
• Instead of making your hair looking dirty it leaves it looking like you just washed it!

The sales-person in the butique showed me the ones they were selling (and they were now selling them mainly for volume-cause and stopped selling the powder!), and she told me they had alternatives for

• different haircolors
• different smells desired
• and for those who wants extra extra volume!

I don't even know which one I'll go for when I've used up mine but it will probably be one of the ones she showed me...  *picture below*

Batiste dry shampoo: three of the many alternatives,
with different smells, for different haircolors and amount of volume!

I hope this is news for at least some people out there and that this has made you as excited as it made me! ^.^ Volume UP!
