Where my feet have taken me away to this time...

Sometimes I just need to step back and take in all those wonderful things, places and people life has led me to. I am grateful and at awe with everything. I love life alone.

Failure is an unexpected gift

Sometimes in life its those unexpected 'failures' that account to some of the greatest things, like they open up other doorways that you maybe weren't aware of before. This could be getting fired from a job or failing an exam. In my case making cupcakes, I love making and decorating them because its so quick and easy but no lie they are kinda bland as far as cakes go.

I made 11 today, firstly thats an odd number and I don't like odd numbers so maybe they were destined to fail from the beginning.

I put my babies in the oven feeling proud that I had constructed them in under 15 minutes, only to find that when they were done; they had sunk in the middle, making them lousy looking. My mormor then said that I should just continue asif they were meant to look like that. I did and I decorated them with icing and sprinkles. I was still kinda sad until I had one and they made me smile. My secret ingredient had made them lovely.

So todays unexpected lesson is: DO NOT GIVE UP, even if it looks like you may already have failed, its not over until you admit defeat and if you never do its never over until you succeed!

Emotion jar

Everytime I felt something

I wrote it down

Everytime I wrote it down

I placed them in a jar

Everytime I felt empty

I got out my emotions

Everytime I took one out

I remembered the time it was felt

Everytime I preserved an emotion

I lost the right to feel it again

~For it is not right to lock them away in jars

saved for a rainy day~

p.s I love this...

I have no words except: Beautiful and I want it!

Interesting and so so so cool!

I will start this post by expressing my undying love for these leggings! [heart] I love the colours and the blending of the light blues and the scattering of the stars and the way they fade out and I think maybe I have stared at them for too long because my eyes have memorised the patterns. Anyone who knows me knows how much I love, Stars, planets, space, the colour blue, skies and LEGGINGS! They are simply perfect for me and I would so buy them if I had $60 even if they were my last $60 alas I do not have even that so I will just continue to stare at them. I found them whilst browsing a cool tights designers online shop and I would highly recommend checking it out, he has some really cool stuff for sale.

I fell in love with these strange yet enticing ribcages, I not quite sure if I could call them a type of jewellery (even though thats what I think they look the most like) or whether they would be a type of belt although I have no idea what they could be holding up or in. Nonetheless this amour of gold just looks amazingly sexy and so hot on those guys! It's just so different I loved it. I think more guys should do this leather jacket ribcage combo, they'd get my attention any day if that means anything. ^^

Silence

Sometimes, being away from civilisation is the best cure for a lot of things, but also it gives you time to get to know yourself again. Living in a city as big as London there are constantly things happening and people to hang out with and slowly you find yourself adapting to certain situations in ways that maybe you shouldn't or maybe simply because they change who you really are. I wanted to be me again, just pure boring, kinda energetic, impulsive and slightly obsessive me. I'm going to find me again and I will come back to civilisation ready to be corrupted again because thats me as well ^^. My daily dose of people comes from a visit to a super market that maybe only really has 12 customers, and I've started craving general crowds so I've started to bump into strangers just to be about to have some kind of interaction: 'sorry' and a reply 'it's ok'. Sad but I love it. The vast emptiness is like a drug to my overactive mind, my thoughts are spilling out of my ears I've started writing them down anywhere and everywhere.

Sometimes, life at its simplest and purest is life at its best.

Facial experiment

I find that in the sun my skin becomes oily and I tend to break out which I hate because all you really want to do is look good during summer but my skin lets me down time and time again; so I just tried my own very cheapo and experimental facial, it looked like gooooey muck muck, tasted nice and well was quite fun.

I mixed together in a bowl:

1tbsp honey

2tbsp sugar

a dizzle of olive oil

stir stir stir...

I applied it all over my face and massaged it into my skin, the sugar parts worked as a cleanser for my big pores and was quite relaxing to be honest. It took some washing off but using the hot water i kinda just massaged it off.

Overall very sticky but left my skin feeling clean and so so so soft ^^ I'll put the rest in the fridge to use the day after tomorrow.

Pardon the photo its like 1:00am here and well quite dark not that that excuses my face LOL! looks like I'm made of wax and that my face is melting off 0.0... scary
