Boots + Resume of fall semester

So, I got something of a revelation today morning. Boots. I need a pair of boots. Dark brown, matte boots would be perfect to almost everything. Imagine a pair of knee high boots with a pair of beaten skinny jeans and a white knitted sweater... PERFECT! I think I would use them a lot, but I don't think that I will get a pair sometime soon, because I've just gotten a pair of pretty expensive uggs - and I love them. Right now I just really have a craving for those boots.
And, by the way... I am finished with the fall semester now! Yay! I think this school semester have been amazing and it has gone by so fast. I really like it there, and I feel like a fish in water if you know what I mean. I have come very far with myself too - I am a lot more confident now. I have come far with my health and fitness as well, I started the Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Training Guide 2 months ago. At first I wanted everyone to like me, but now I'm very relaxed I can say without lying that I DO NOT CARE WHAT EVERYONE THINK OF ME. I think the key is to learn to stop worrying, thinking like: "Well, if they don't like me, they're not worth my time thinking of them. I can focus on the good things in my life instead and the people that actually do like me." Because I mean, if someone is mean or ignores you, why would you try to make them like you? It's their choice and they are missing out. Don't waste your time on those people, you have other things more important and good to think about.
Okay, I have to go!

My New Year Resolutions

Hello darls!
It. Is. So. Good. To. Be. BACK!! After a weekend of rest, in both the social and active fronts I am now very much refreshed and happy. Just finished one of the workouts I missed, and I feel so good. Really hate slacking after with training.
The schoolday was fun, nothing special, but as you may know, I just really like my school. Much better than my old.
But that wasn't what I was going to write about;
I am going to write about my New Year Resolutions. I haven't had so many 'serious' kinds of stuff, only like I will not eat candy and I will get 150 dollars for it (from my mum and dad). But, I think I will make a few real this year..

• I will keep on with this healthy lifestyle.
• DEFINITELY continue the BBTG 1.0 and then purchase 2.0. I really like this guide.
• Not being so much on a screen - I sit with a screen maybe 4 hours a day, so I'll try to get it down to around 2 hours a day instead. 
• Not to look in the mirror so often (haha I know it's silly, but I do it way too often)        

I think 2014 has been a good year and I think that I have come a lot more far with my confidence this year. 

Soon I'll write a 2014 Resume for you, where I tell you what has happened this year and what I have achieved<3

Dream Trips

OMG.
Right now when I look outside at the rainy, gray, boring and cold weather I can't help but dream about somewhere else. Like Dubai, Australia, Caribbean... Just somewhere with paradise beaches and amazing small beach cottages and fresh fruit! In February me and my lovely family will go to the Canary Island, Gran Canaria. I've been there before and it's bloody fabulous. I would say that Dubai (we went there last year) has better beaches - with literarily white sand and crystal clear-turqoise water. But, Maspalomas (that's the town we'll live in) will be super nice and I hope we will have a great time.
When it isn't snowing here, it's pretty boring weather. It's barely no sun and it's dark and cold. Of course I want to stay here and be traditional and celebrate christmas and my b-day here, but imagine how nice to just go somewhere for new year<3 That would be something! Today I figured out the perfect wish: I want to decide the next family-trip destination. I would probably choose Australia, because I've never been there and it seems A M A Z I N G. It's definitely on of my dream destinations and I have dreamed of going there for so long now! Buuut, since the time difference is so big you have to be there at least 2.5 weeks for it to be worth it. I mean, it takes about half a week for the body to get used to the time zone and you have to turn the whole day around. Which means that if you want to go when it's summer in Austraila - I want to - you need to take at least 1 week off from school. It's all very complicated and it's expensive.
I guess that trip will wait a while!

What's Happening to Me?

Update? Well, yeah, still sick. I haven't been doing so much today. Woke up at 12 and went down, made some oatmeal and an egg. Ate that, checked through social media and tried my voice - which for the record isn't working so great. Crawled down in the sofa and there I've been lying the whole day. I haven't had much of an appetite and my parents are getting worried.
Sometimes it hurts, I see for myself how much I have changed. And sometimes I miss my old self, knowing that I can never go back to that person. My dad says I don't eat properly, which I think I do. I take one portion and then I feel full. That's it. I don't starve myself and I don't overeat, okay? I've told you before that I have always loved food and that I used to overeat, that's why my parents find it so strange when I don't eat so much food. "You are still growing, you have to eat more" mum and dad say, but what about my little sister that never eat properly? Yeah, they are used to her not eating, but not used to me eating smaller portions. But I eat when I when I feel like it, and I eat when I'm hungry. I don't skip eating. I eat when I'm hungry.
But. I am afraid of how much I have changed. I look at the mirror all the time, looking at my things, stomach, arms. I don't know. What's happening? What am I doing? Why? It's hard to explain why I feel this.. Is it just nostalgia?
Well, sometime I guess I will find out. Right now I just need to stop looking in the mirror so much and not think about how much I eat.

See you XOXO

Christmas shopping

Hello darlings!
Sorry for being off the blog for this week, I just can't fit it in sometimes.. I'm trying to write posts as often as I can and sometimes it isn't even daily unfortantley. But, I actually do this for me; so I can write my thoughts down and feel better about myself haha.
I've been sick for three days (stayed home on Thursday, felt like crap on Friday but went to school anyway) and I haven't been able to workout. I've got a cold, so it's just a lot of coughing and a lost voice. It's getting better and I am hoping to be able to workout tomorrow; better late than never.
Me and my cousin aka best friend shopped some christmas presents and I feel really happy with the ones I have bought. I have two DIY things I need to do, both of them are frames with photos with me and my friends. But I don't like that christmas present pressure that's between me and one of my friends - she gets money for buying presents and buy pretty expensive kinds while I don't get money and have to pay all of the christmas (and birthday) presents on my own. The thing is that she is a bit immature and doesn't really get happy when she gets something thoughtful but not very expensive.
It's really irritating but I think to next year I will discuss a maximum price for presents.

Here's my wish list:

Workout earbuds

Presentcards on clothing shops for example

Money for trip to NY

Workout clothes

Medicine ball 2 - 3 kg

Gymstick

Juice Maker

Benefit Mascara They're Real

Elf The Movie

Too Faced Chocolate Bar Eye Palette

Anastasia Brow Wiz

My Weekend

Happy 2nd advent guys!
I've had a very nice and chill Sunday and spending some quality time with my mom. A lot of shopping this weekend hah! The Friday-night was spended over at my best friend's house, we were watching The Maze Runner - bet you have heard of it - about a group of people that get trapped in a kind of labyrinth.. Pretty good movie and I didn't really find it that scary, which is positive. We fell asleep around 12, so not that late.
The day after me and my friend - that by the way had a cold - went to the city; took a starbucks latte, ate on T.G.I Fridays, went ice skating and of course shopping christmas presents. Super fun, cozy and christmasy. The thing was that both of us were - we still are, but she's in her house and I'm in mine - ill and quite tired after the busy Saturday. Still we decided to go to my place, make some wholewheat baguettes with mozzarella, tomatoes and spinach. That was the way last night was spended; infront of the tv, watching elf and drinking tea and eating the baguettes. I think we both were a bit tired of the other person and just tired. And ill. The night turned out pretty well - even though we were a bit moody and my little sis wanted to be with us the whole time - but I think we could have had even more fun if we both were a bit more cheerful.
This morning my friend almost went home instantly because of the cold. I had some quark and a smoothie for breakfast, and then I've drunk a smoothie and eaten a quest bar. Why haven't eaten so much is because my family and I are go to a Christmas Buffé that a very fancy hotel is hosting. I usually don't like the dishes on there, but it's a nice event.
Okay, I'll talk to you again later!
XOXO

Soulmate..?

I feel like I'm waiting for someone perfect, no matter if that person will be my future boyfriend or if it'll be my future best friend. I don't care. I just want to have someone that will stand up for me ALL the time, that I have fun with, that I can trust in any circumstances and that understands me. A soulmate, that I can do everything with. But I don't know if I found one yet, but I so badly want to. One of my friends I can trust will stand up for me and have fun with. Another one I know I can trust and I know that she will never leave me, but I don't have so fun with her. One I don't hang out with so much, and I don't am as close with her as I am with the others. The fourth one don't go to the same school as me. The fifth I have only known for 4 months, and she's got a few other friend I think she is with rather than me.

I don't feel alone, I know I have my friends. I love them, but I want someone that really completes me. Maybe a boyfriend. Maybe a friend. I just want someone. Still, I don't know if I'll ever find someone so perfect. Can you? I don't know, and it is pretty damn frustrating. 

Someone I can be myself around, someone that can't wait to be with me, someone who is trustworthy, someone I don't get tired of being with. 

Have I already find that friend? Maybe I have, someone I've known since first grade, when I think of it. But she leaves me out when we are with another friend.

Hi! I'm back, haven't been able to update.. Sorry! I hope it'll be better now. I just wanted to write my feelings down. It feels so much better after. 

I love you<3
