...

I havent been feeling great these past days. Nothing to do with pshychological matters or matters of the heart.. no no nothing like that. It's just that I feel so tired. I feel like sleeping all the time it's like a vicious cycle. the more i sleep the more tired i feel, the less i sleep if feel sleepy and tired.

I close my eyes and wander of to a nice cool cottage in the mountains, where i have my favourite music playing and i'm reading a lovely/fun/funny/romantic book...

If only it were true... Ah! the cool breeze out on the porch, and the birds chirping, the smell of freshness, and pine trees... oh yeah.. in my fantasy i also have a nice thick forest (which isnt scary!!!!) and a beautiful lake that i can easily swin in (because there are no nasty animals in it ;)

Anyway to wrap things up... i guess all this laziness, "flatness" is cause because i'm worried and anxious about my final exams. They are not just any finals, this is the end of the line for me where i pass and get my degree!!!!! Finally!!!

Yay!!!!

summer hair/ beach blonde

Hey y'all! (in that Ruby tone - just love how she says it)

Well.. here's the thing... i went from brunette to blonde! VERY blonde (maybe i'll post some photo's for reference)


I was in the salon for 2.5 hours!!! that's why i neglected/avoided colouring my hair because basically i hate being confined in one place for a long period of time. I dont mind being stuck somewhere as long as I know that i'm free to go whenever i want and not whenever i can. Does this make any sense? Anyway.. I was in the salon for a million years and i was getting my hair coloured. My stylist, (which I love sooo much) told me that of course the colour will not be completely even on the first attempt since i had a very long root and my tips where already coloured before. He said that i will have to go in again to get everything smoothed out.

He also said that when someone has very blonde hair, a really good hair routine must be followed. I'll have to put a hydrating mask on twice a week, and wear an spf everymorning.

I guess the same routine someone should follow for the face and skin should also be followed for the hair. I really have to commit myself to this if i want my hair to stay healthy and sleek.

For the time being i couldnt afford gettin a mask but i did get the spray spf for every morning. I'm gonna stick to the traditional olive oil stuff for a while till i'm comfortable splurging a good amount of euros on a proper GOOD mask.

My first reactions on this HUGE change were mixed. I like it but i'm feeling like a fish out of the water. I used to be a blonde a looooong time ago, but never this blonde but i was comfortable with my brunette style. You know how you get yourself into a routine and feel safe?? that!

I'm liking it every second even more and i guess when i get into that routine mode again i'll be completely fine!

So, what's the most extreme thing you ever did on your hair?

I for one, have been experimenting since September 2008 on my hair, but always with different styles NOT colours. I had very long hair that went down to my waist and got it chopped of like Victoria's (Beckham) bob. After that i would go in the salon every couple of months and get a shorter and shorter hair due till my brother's hair was actually longer than mine!!

anyway! i'm rambling on and on and basically drifting away from the subject. So, i'm signing of :)))

Take care everyone, anyone?

Monday Morning

Well, here we are again... another Monday morning and i'm at the office. I really hate Mondays for two reasons:

#1 well.. it's Monday! who likes waking up in the morning at 6:15 to get ready for work after a well rested weekend, where you can sleep in till late and all that. sometimes i wish it was Sunday everyday! not having to worry about work and what to wear, no makeup, no house chores no nothing. Just relaxing, reading blogs, watching videos, catching up with my books and TV shows that i love.

#2... Times flows by so fast and each Monday reminds me that another week has gone by... i always kind of feel sad on Mondays because looking back to the past week I realize that I have accomplished nothing seriously important and that I dont have enough time left to do whatever. I dont know... I wish I were more active in the week but still i dont seem to find the energy because of the classic excuse: I have to wake up in the morning.

One thing that i did yesterday and made me feel really good was donating some cash to ahopeforchildren.org. It's a non-profit organization that helps children in Ethiopia that were born with the HIV virus. I know that this is nothing to brag about, or show off but i really do care about HIV possitive patients. It's a cause, especially here where i live that is widely neglected and i do believe that people still have taboo's where HIV is concerned!

If everyone could just open their eyes for once and see the big picture!!!
