Oh well I'll just have to use Pippi plaits until I get to follow treatment on the roots of my hair~ I should've gotten one on th 15th of May but that never happend.... So I've gotten some serious afro roots (not that I dislike my natural hair, I've flaunted a well cut afro some years ago I just like to change now and then).  Buuuuuut afro roots and straight permed hair don't go well together! When ever you try to De-tangle it it goes ''great'' till you get to the scalp and drag down your brush because it just becomes a giant lump all the way down, kind of like a forced teasing(for the hair!) But with some patience it works and plaits is the best way to go to keep the hair de-tangled for the longest time possible and not strain it with the brush everyday :)

Now since I work in a kitchen that means a lot of dishes have to be washed! And that is leaving its traces on my hands, I've always had quite dry hands but this week it takes the prize! Nothing helps! I've been used so much hand cream whenever i got home that I've finished a tube in less than a week! Maybe I just need a more potent one, right now the only one doing the trick (at least keeping them smooth a little while after I apply is Elizabeth Arden's Green Tea Honey Drops body cream~ yes yes it's a BODY cream but it's the only thing helping right now and hands are technically a part of your body anyway ;) It will do the job until I can get my hand on one of my favourite Lush ones :)

Good morning it is (was) 10 am but it's still quite early :) at least it's not lunch time yet! But something needs to get in my belly so I can start my day~ Eggs and bacon 'tis because it's been far too long since last!   this breakfast deserves and extra big picture! 

Like I said cleaning isn't my forte but it's at least better now. I'll just fix it a bit more tomorrow or something :)  

Okay so the day after(15/5) my final exams (retakes), I started working immediately. Sure it's no big deal but everyone that dealt with exams in May knows that one day, just one to relax once it's all over is just *bliss*, it was pretty rough~ The nexxt day I was free but used it as an errands day becuse I was supposed to be free the day after that too!  Or was I? *Dun Dun Dun* I thought '' I'm always free on Mondays and Tuesdays anyway! Those can be my recharging days!'' *cries* Half of my monday did become that, until my colleague texted me and asked me if I could fill in since he was sick, and thus Nat went~ But that meant I had evening shifts Monday and Tuesday and morning AND evening shifts the rest of the week! Of course I got a longer break between them, my employers aren't tyrants~  It was just until Saturday because saturday evening he texted that he was better and could take the morning pass on Sunday, which meant.... Yes?

Progress starts when you acknowledge your flaws... And mine is obviously not being able to keep my room pretty! I've had a lot to do recently, exams, work being the major ones! While the exams were going on I didn't care about keeping my room clean and then I was directly slung in to work, where I had to take morning and evening shifts at the kitchen  because my collegeague is apparently down with the flu :( which I turn left me with no energy to clean it either xD  I know most people have a hard time with keeping their rooms tidy but mine won't even stay tidy for a day guys! 

   Last Friday I went down to the south of Sweden in order to attend one of my best friend's fashion show at her design and fashion collage. It was about a 5-6 hour car ride from where I lived but it was DEFINITELY worth it! Her and her classmates collections were just amazing! Talk about ready to wear for all different sizes and tastes! This was my favourite outfit from my friend! It was a full circle skirt with a turtle neck vest top! All made by her?! I'm sorry but I'm still in awe.... I love the femenine very delicately soft grunge vibe her collection had~ girly grunge kind of! If wear that any day! 

Okay so yeeees I'm in the midst of exam hell and that means that the majority of my days this past week has been spent inside, with my books, revising..... more like extreme cramming! Anyway tomorrow it's the last of this weeks test which means I'll be free for 4 days until the next. To the point Nat to the point! Well I've just really missed going outside! even if the days are gloomy most of the time there are some hours each day that just seems like paradise! It makes me really want to go back to the King's Garden in Stockholm and walk through the cherry blossoms. The picture of those days work as a small energy kick because it reminds me of the beautiful weather I'll enjoy after the exams and that it actually wasn't too long ago that I was there :) Here are some of the photos, some of them didn't turn out that great because the sun wasnt really working to my favour and I'm a complete camera noob~ but hey I'd did my best and pr

Okay so most of us students are in the middle of the most important time in the school year, yep may is usually when exam hell starts to break loose, especially for IB students! I know you guys because I'm in the same boat as you I have my first exams( actually retakes if I should be honest) tomorrow!  Even if it's feels fairly tempting to just sit her and cram in as much last minute info as possible in not gonna do that! I'm going to take my needed breaks, relax, take time to make some snacks, because your brain and body needs it to retain information and gather strength for tomorrow!  Those 2 minutes to grab a drink or 10 to make a quick snack will not make or break you! So just go grab some energy and then come back! Good luck tomorrow ! :)
