So, this weekend (20th and 21st of September), some places in France are open for free because of the Heritage Days. Since I live next to the Luxembourg gardens, I tried my luck yesterday to see if the palace was open for free too. And it was! I had my lunch in my bag, but I decided to queue, not knowing that the...
It will almost be a week since I arrived in Paris. A week! My goodness, time does fly. My first ever experience of living abroad -by myself- has been all right so far. After arriving to a room which I have to share in the month of September, and carrying two heavy luggages along with a backpack and a handbag all by myself,...
Pets bring such joy to a person and you form an indescribable bond with them that when they pass away, it feels like a part of you has been taken away with them. You grow to care for the tiny things, you play with them, feed them, watch them with fascination because they do the most curious things sometimes, you laugh with them,...
So, I've recently come back from a small trip to Paris and I bought a really cute nail varnish from KIKO for €2.5 which is only £2.03. The nail varnish is Peony Pink, glitters and has really good texture to it. It's quick-dry and doesn't necessarily need a second layer, because it is thick enough. However, it's always best to do a second...
On Friday, I called the RSPCA because a cat that loved to come to my garden looked like it was in so much pain and it made me panic, as I hadn't seen him like that before. I don't know whose cat he was, but I sure as heck dislike the owners as it seems as though they abandoned him when they realised...
So yesterday was Easter and to celebrate the season's festivities, I decided to bake some cookies. The first were called Almond & Raspberry Jam Drops. I kind of didn't follow the recipe instructions precisely because I thought the amount of butter that it asked for was horrendous. So my measurements were as follows: 45g of butter, softened (as opposed to 225g....appalling, I know)...
So, yesterday was Pancake Day and that meant it was finally the time to stuff my face with these delicious things and actually have an excuse to do so. Mum made the pancakes and I took the pleasure of covering them with all things sweet; Nutella, honey, condensed milk and strawberries on the side. I wonder, what you guys put in yours? [100happydays,...
So, Spring is almost here and that means beautiful flowers growing everywhere and yummy barbeques. We made an attempt at making a summer lunch today, which got me all excited for the summer season. Seeing the beautiful daffodils growing in our back garden makes me want to wear my flower headbands already, but I guess that's gonna have to wait. In the meantime,...
So, today was lovely. I met up with a friend whom I haven't seen in months, and went to a cute cafe in Syon park. We caught up with so much, and remembered so many embarrassing moments we shared in school. After that, we walked to Pets at Home where we saw the cute bunnies and guinea pigs and I tried hard to...
After a whole week of intensive work on a film with the famous Eulàlia Ramon as part of our European Cinema module; on today's final day of editing, I was overwhelmed to see the final piece. I took the role of directing, and even though it was tough to handle the job at some points - like when a girl in my group...
For Valentine's Day I decided to bake a cake. I actually wanted to put this up for Lorrain's competition but I realised the deadline was midday and I finished this beautiful masterpiece *waits for applause* like two hours later. But despite that, I was very proud of my little cinamon sponge cake and it tasted great too. ...
So this is Albus, my lovely cat. He's named after the Hogwarts headmaster because 1) I'm obsessed with Harry Potter, and 2) it suits him perfectly, and 3) he answers to it so it's a win/win situation. He loves to sleep, and eat ham. He likes talking to me, and I like pretending to know what he is on about. ...
