Originally, I was going to do a Christmas favourites, but when I started writing the post, I realized I didn't have enough material. Thence we have 2014 favourites. ○ Movies: The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones, The Fault in Our Stars, Anonymous, Spud, Frozen ○ TV Shows: Bates Motel, Under the Dome, Suits, Broadchurch- of course I've watched some more, but these are the ones I started watching in 2014. The rest I've enjoyed this...

Here comes the last recommendation this month and I saved the best for last - a TV show, obviously.  I thought long and hard about which show is the most appropriate one for the holidays and I came to a wonderful conclusion - Downton Abbey Christmas Specials! I will explain, hang on. Downton Abbey is a British TV show. The plot is set in the years before and after World War 1. It's about an...

You're probably familiar with the fact that there are lots and lots of Christmas movies out there and you've probably watched a lot of them, but I think it's no surprise that my favourite, as well as everyone else's, is Elf. I feel a bit silly writing this blog post as I feel like everybody who knows about Christmas knows about this movie as well, but I don't care. If you don't know about the movie...

Hello everybody! Today's blog post is gonna be a shorter one, but hopefully a good one. I know everyone has different tastes in music and that for most people it changes constantly, but around this time of year I think most of us have quite similar playlists. Christmas jingles are simply a must. Quite a few artists have made their own versions of classic Christmas songs, but everyone has a favourite, right? Some would probably...

I have a feeling this blog post won't do the book any justice as I've watched 15 episodes of Friends today and I think most of my brain cells are dead. Anyway, I will do my best.  I've mentioned this book in my blog post on books I want to (re)read, and if I hadn't made a promise to myself not to read anything until I'm done with Under the Dome, I'd so be rereading...

No surprise here - I've been watching a lot of YouTube, as always. Plot twist, though: I actually found an educational one! So, if you're like me and you watch way too many YouTube videos, here's a channel that won't make you feel guilty about it (although, let's face it, you don't ever feel guilty) - CRASH COURSE! Crash Course is a channel hosted by John and Hank Green where they upload videos with a...

It is time for me to start recommending you some bits. For Blogmas, I decided to split monthly recommendations into separate blog posts. First up - a TV show obviously! A TV series I've been obsessed with this month and have finished watching way too quickly is Bates Motel. I have only one question regarding this TV show and it is WHERE HAS IT BEEN HIDING FOR SO LONG? Right, if you haven't watched it,...

You may or may not know this but I love reading books, but I also like rereading them if I particularly like them. I've gathered here some of the books I would like to (re)read this winter, so if you're interested, keep reading. 1) John Green, Maureen Johnson, Lauren Myracle - Let It Snow I've got this book last spring, I think,so it's only right that I read it again during the holidays. 2) Stephen Chbosky -...

Just like every other season, winter has its ups and downs, but I decided to look at all the ups for this blog post and put them in words. Let's give the cold some love! Here are some of the things I like about winter. ▸ Cosy sweaters and blankets make a return and become socially acceptable. ▸ Laying in bed all day long with a duvet wrapped around you like a tortilla is okay....

I'm back with history, although this is the last part. I noticed that quite a few people liked this series, so if you have any other requests, feel free to let me know.  ▸ Ancient Egypt Those Egyptians, huh? As I've mentioned in the history of eyeshadow, they used to use kohl to colour their eyes, eyelashes and eyebrows for all sorts of reasons. Both men and women wore kohl to protect their eyes and...

Putting the Short History series on pause for the day as I've got way too many things to do and cannot find the time to do research. I'm afraid you'll have to settle for this tag. Enjoy! 1. Is your hair naturally curly or straight? It's fairly straight, but sometimes there’s a few waves going on.  2. What is your natural hair colour? Light brown  3. Do you dye it yourself or go to a...
