Clean Eating Day 3

On 20th May 2013 I decided to start clean eating again. I had already started in January but then, due to exams I stopped and ate all junk food again. So now I decided to start to eat clean again since it makes me feel good , clears up my skin and makes me feel much more confident too!

 

My first goal is to do 1 week straight without eating junk food. That means no threats or cheat meals.

Today I am on my 3rd day and it has been so good so far! I am motivated however the temptations are there.. Yesterday my parents bought my favourite unhealthy foods ( crisps, ice-cream and waffles!)

 

I can't wait to start seeing results ( a more toned body) .

 

Anyways that is It for now.. I will keep you updated on how my clean eating lifestyle is going :)

 

Dance registration :D

I've loved dancing since the day I was born :P I remember when I was about 3 yrs old my mum had asked me what I want to do and my answer was Dancing ! I used to watch barbie dancing movies all the time ( my favorite was ''The Nutcracker'' ) and used to imitate the dancers by going up on tip-toes hihi .

Then I started dancing Ballet when I was about 4 until I was 7 yrs old. I stopped going to the Ballet School and started again later when I was 10 years old, and once again after a year I stopped. I then started Hip Hop classes but they only lasted for about 6 months. 

Now I finally sent the dance registration together with a fee to a school and I can't wait till I receive any further details from them . Super excited :D

Long time no Blog !

Hey everyone :) So I haven't blogged in a while because I have been busy and wasn't really ''in the mood '' :/ I recently went to do some voluntary work helping kittens that don't have a home . It was quite a nice experience and I wish I could have brought one kitten home but my parents wouldn't allow me . My fav kitten  :

Also I have been to ''Blue Lagoon'' Here's some pictures for you to see:

It's beautiful ! However I got stung by a jelly fish and right now my left leg has blisters , but it's not that bad at least . 

I've also been enjoying BBQ's with family and friends :

Also spending some time in my grandma's flat near the beach :D

Mostly my summer has been great on the whole . I've been going to beaches all the time because over here the temperature goes up to 97-102 F . 

Last week I started physics/math tuition which means that I've gotta start working again . Oh well at least school doesn't start til 9th October :D

How has  your summer been ?

My new walk in in wardrobe.. well kinda.

I've always used to watch closet tours on youtube and have always wished that I had one too . Instead of a closet I had a wardrobe , however it was  too small and not all my clothes fit in :/ So , I decided to turn our guest room into a walk in wardrobe . However I couldn't remove the bed / computer desk/old wardrobe .. I just removed 2 old pieces of furniture and replaced them with  racks to hang on clothes :)

Where I used to put my clothes

This was the room before my parents and I started to work on this ''project'' .. Really messy :P

Also I'm using my wardrobe for my scarves now 

At least now my clothes are more organized and much easier to choose from because I can see them more.

Phases...

We all go through different phases of styles.When we become teenagers , we start to explore our style and experiment different ones. My first ''experimental style'' was kinda rock-ish all black kind of clothes , then to all girly-girl , then to simple plain things and then to an ''I don't care what I wear'' type of style . Well it still happens to me till this day. I haven't found a style that I actually fit in to be honest. I feel like my style changes  according to the phase of life I'm in . A few weeks ago I wanted to wear all girly stuff and stylish things... and now a few days ago I started to actually not care about fashion and just wear simple stuff that I feel comfortable in. An example of the outfit would be ... trainers/converse , shorts and some shirt. 
Sometimes it's a problem when going shopping because I may buy certain clothes that I'd be loving at that time and then like after a few weeks my style would have changed ...Kinda weird I know....
Do you guys go through this too?

My Birthday

Yesterday (23 rd June ) was my birthday and I turned 17 years old. I made plans to go shopping , do a pedicure and then at night go out for dinner with my friends and then go a bit clubbing :) ( Btw : where I live the legal age to go clubbing is 17 so it's not illegal -- laws are very different here from the US) Anyways , it turned out to be a great day :D plus I bought some clothes with the money I recieved and got some pretty nice gifts.

Pedicure

So the first thing I did with one of my best friends is a FISH PEDICURE! Haha it was our first time and we got really excited :P

I must say it felt really nice ! It was like putting your feet in a foot mes-sager and feeling vibrations /bubbles on your feet.

Shopping

Next my friend and I went shopping :3 I bought some clothes which I really needed for summer.

The mall we went to

The view from the mall :)

Of course we had some ice-cream while shopping at the mall :3 Nom nom nom...

Mine was mint and my friend's was strawberry. So good with cookies inside.

Gifts

After a whole day out... I went home and started preparing for the night where I met all my other friends :D It was great! These are some of the gifts I recieved.

I loved every single gift :) Most of the gifts were money so I could buy whatever I want ..

Well I had great day on the whole ... Can't wait till I'm an adult next year 18 ;P

Natural at night....

A few days ago I ordered this ''Natural at Night Too Faced'' palette from Asos and today I received the package . At first when I saw the package I thought it was too small because when I ordered it I  thought that it was gonna be larger. However when I opened this package I loved everything about it :D The eye shadow colours are amazing , they're pigmented and most of all obviously are natural colours which I love ! Next Saturday (23rd June ) I'll be officially 17 and I'm planning to create a look out of these eye shadows . Can't wait :D
Anyways this is the eye shadow collection :

 What do you guys think about this collection?

Healthy food haul / Products

Hey everyone! So yesterday  I went grocery shopping with my mum . Lately all I've been eating was junk food , candy and soft drinks which is disgusting. Happens to me every time during exams time, so I decided to go and buy healthy food and also start an exercise routine every morning.I also need to lose just a few pounds cause I gained about 7 pounds in these last few months. However I just want to be more  healthy rather than losing weight.

So this is what I bought:

Cherry tomatoes , apples and pears. I also bought bananas but I forgot to take a picture .

Water melon . Perfect for summer :D

I don't really like the taste of skimmed milk..I feel like it has no taste at all so I go to the semi-skimmed milk :)

All-Bran cereal in the morrning .

I love these with a vegetable soup.

I'm also trying to stay away from ''white'' stuff like white bread, pasta and potatoes.

I love this type of bread even more than white bread !I usually just do some toast with butter.

Mushrooms

Some veggies and Melon

Again, I went for the wholegrain rice not the white one. I will probably use this to make some rice salads.

Snacks

I love snacks and so I tried to buy some healthy ones

I love chocolate milk and this one is for vegetarians and it has less  calories than most local chocolate milks here.

I just love figs and these dried ones are so good!

I've tried this yogurt yesterday and it was delicious! I usually hate yogurts but this one tasted kind of like an ice cream

These are perfect for when I'm hungry and in a hurry.

I also bought some dark no sugar  chocolate just for when I'm really craving chocolate.

Products

This is my favorite conditioner! Leaves hair very soft.

Another TRESemme Product which I also love! The hair heat protectant.

The colour I dye my hair - Dark Brown

love these shaving blades.. No need to use any shaving foam because they have like a jelly thing at the sides to smooth your legs.

Love this shampoo's smell.

 That's all for this haul . Can't wait to get into this healthy lifestyle :D
