Trick or Treat!

It is that time of the year when children can enjoy wondering around their spooky neighborhoods. They enjoy the spooks. They enjoy the orange of the pumpkins, the leaves. They roam for treats as the night falls.

Then there is me, all the way in the southern hemisphere where the days are getting longer and there is not one bit of orange in sight. The scent of spring is everywhere, and to boot many people don't even celebrate Halloween.

I love this time of the year though, and for that one special day I like to pretend that it is autumn (at home). I don't really have much time for parties, mainly because of personal commitments, I will however make some time for a horror film.

In spirit of this celebration I have also decided to decorate a little bit, and I have found some pretty cute decorations. I would go all out, but haven't got the time.

 My choice of sweets includes the usual body parts, in the image below you might be able to see vampire fangs, a thumb and a brain. Then there are the pumpkin marshmallows which I cannot wait to open! Other treats that I will be snacking on as I enjoy the spooks this coming Friday include; snakes, marshmallows, more hard lollies and my all time favorites, sherbet lemons!

I also love dressing up. This year I am keeping it simple with some spiderweb eyelashes, cute devil horns, dark makeup and of course some blood.


That is all for today, have a super spooky awesome Halloween!

Something New

Here I am sitting with a huge pile of work, and I just want to relax. To be honest I have not had a break at all this year. I really want to pursue in a new hobby, something relaxing and enjoyable, so even if I can't take a lot of time off, I can escape somewhere shortly without feeling any stress. I feel as though starting a blog might be a good idea. I can express myself in any way I wish, and that is wonderful considering a lot of activities in my life don't really allow me to do this.

I might start off with a little introduction about myself, firstly, I am into anything artistic. Now, this is a very broad statement, but I can't help but like so many things. I really enjoy cooking, designing, drawing, painting, trying out a lot of make up looks. I also love to enjoy what others have to offer with their creativity. Other things I like include music, summer (I absolutely hate winter, I always get sick and want to hibernate throughout it), fashion, a little bit of gaming, and exploring new places. A small random fact is that Esla from Frozen is one of my Disney idols. She is amazing, and yes she is far from perfect, but that's what makes her so interesting, and I love the journey she goes through  as she builds her inner strength.

I guess the theme of my blogs would be something along the lines of beauty and fashion or on adventures I like to take. I think it will depend on my mood and what I am inspired by in the moment. For now though time to return to my actual reality and crunch through tasks that have been calling out to me ever since I started writing this.

Adios
