Woo... haven't had the energy or time to keep my blog. Maan, I feel so lazy, nowait, that's not right. I AM lazy! Sheesh, it's been a while and I'm not quite the social internet butterfly at the moment but I really hope that I can be again, once all these things in my life have settled.
Right now I feel like I have thousands of things to do and not enough time to do it in, *whew* anyone else experience this?
Anywhoodle I'm rambling, just got back from seeing my girls that I haven't seen in waay too long. Sitting here in front of my monitor although it's 2 am and I'm supposed to be at school at 9 tomorrow morning. But I just didn't feel like going to sleep just yet. Was looking at videos on youtube when I came across this classis. This song is to date one of the FEW songs that can get me on the dancefloor, GUARANTEED!
So take out a few minutes like me, sit back relax, do a little office chair dance if you like but most importantly, ENJOY!

Sunday is baking day... baking day... lalalalala!
Hello all!
I'm sorry I haven't been very social lately but I've been quite busy with school ad all, I hope you will forgive me.
As you might have guessed from the title, I had an afternoon of doing nothing so I decided to ... bake! If I had the means necessary I would jump on a plane and come feed every one of you (my readers) yes, that would be both of you! JK!
I started out with making a very delicious fondant au chocolat (for those who don't want to bother guessing, it would be chocolate fondant) XD I decided to use good ingredients and shelled out on Green and Black's Organic Trinitario 85% dark chocolate. (YUM!)
The result was great crispy on top and melty, chocolatey on the inside... *drool*
RECIPE:
200 grammes of dark chocolate
170 grammes of butter (room temperature)
100 grammes of sugar
70 grammes of wheat flour
5 eggs
(optional, extra chocolate to sprinkle on top after taking out of the oven)
Melt the chocolate and the butter in separate bowls.
In third bowl, mix eggs, sugar and flour.
Mix the butter and chocolate together and stir a bit.
Add to the egg/flour/sugar mix.
Put them in small muffin forms and put in oven at 200 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes. Remember, the fondant should be gooey and chocolatey on the inside.
Eat!
As if that wasn't enough I decided to make apple muffins too. This was a different version of the ones I usually make but they turned out great.
RECIPE:
Turn on oven at 250 degrees Celsius
2 cups of flour
1 tsp baking powder
2 tsp of cinnamon
1/2 cup of butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup of cane and white sugar (half-half)
2 eggs
1 cup of plain natural yoghurt (I used greek)
2 apples peeled, cored and coarsely chopped
Mix the dry ingredients together, sieve if you want. (flour, baking powder, cinnamon)
Whisk the butter, sugar and eggs well. Add the yoghurt and mix again.
Add the flour, mix and add the chopped apples.
Pour into muffin forms. Mix one tablespoon of cane sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon in a small bowl and stir with a spoon. Sprinkle on top of every muffin and place in mid-lower section of oven. Immediately turn down the heat to 175 degress Celsius and let bake for 30 minutes.
The middle is full of moist delicious apples!
Eat!
Enjoy!

Hey Lovelies ^_^
Yeah, I know I'm not so creative with the headline this time but I don't know what to call it.
Here's a look I did earlier this evening combining pale pink, grey, deep purple and black. I kinda liked this color combo when I swatched it, maybe I should've used a little more time for the execution...oh well... one can never be satisfied.
On inner corners I applied the pale pink e/s
Grey e/s was then swept all over lid
Purple e/s in the crease and other corner as well as lower lashline
Black e/s on top of purple e/s at lower lashline and also lined upper lashline.
Thanks for looking!

Dynamite surfing! And another cool ad...
This viral ad for Quicksilver was flourishing on the Internet about a year ago. It looks pretty awesome, because what do you do when you have a quiet lake and no waves? With the help of dynamite, the problem is solved of course!
Not a lot of people know this, but this ad was made by a Danish advertisement company on the lake called: Peblingesøen (Peblinge lake) that's situated in close to downtown Copenhagen.
Here you go, for those of you who haven't seen it before, Enjoy:
On another note, I found out that this ad for Sony Bravia was also made by a Danish fellow. Pretty cool. I like this one:

Colored contacts
So, I finally got my hands on the Hidrocharme colored contacts in ocre and mel. The ones I'm wearing are ocre. I got them from this Brazilian site called: Viallure It was Alienman who first talked about these and I found them so pretty that I had to try and see how they looked. This is the link she provided me with: LINK it's the blog of a Korean girl wearing them and besides from the fact that she is superpretty, the colored contacts look so so so good on her!
Instead of the selcetion available here that is mainly targeted towards caucasians I find these contacts to look natural and not like a chunk of color placed in the middle of my eyes.
I really like these contacts because they make my natural eye color lighter while still making it look natural and I just thought I would share, the S&H is very pricey but I stopped buying cosmetics for a while instead.
On these pics I also applied mascara on my bottom lashes, something I don't usually do.
