she acts like summer and walks like rain.











did you all have anice weekend? i did, even though saturday was quite exhausting - my dad and his wife moved to an apartment on the second floor and they have really heavy furniture. but in the evening i celebrated our 3 years anniversary with my boyfriend, so that was a nice ending for the day. 3 years. makes me feel old, ha.
on the pictures i am wearing a cat eye mask aroung my waist, because i bought it and never quite knew how to wear it. and a belt seems like a good everyday solution. it's very hard not to buy stuff, because almost every blogger i follow constantly gets so nice and pretty things that inspire me and make me wanna shop till my feet hurt or something. but oh well, if i want to go to singapore for an internship in summer i will have to save some money... 
i discovered this relatively old album "drops of jupiter" by train. they are the band that landed the hit "hey soul sister" in 2010, you know? the make good music! especially the song"missisippi" is so sad and beautiful... i am spending the evening listening to music and telling myself that i am starting to have a HUGE problem with finfishing my bachelor thesis in time, i have like 12 days left and a LOT of work to do... hate it! my last semester of university starts tomorrow and i have to say i am kinda happy about it. finally something to do and a structure for my day, after almost 2 months of doing basically nothing. sounds odd, but i enjoy having some reason to get up in the morning.

cheers!

today i feel like not doing anything.

so, today was the most unproductive day in my entire life. seriously, including the day after i was born! that's why i will only post some more pictures from hongkong and leave it with that. tomorrow i have to get up early and help my dad and his wife move, and in the evening i'll head over to my boyfriend's house to have dinner with him. looking forward to that!

there's no place like home.

soooo, i guess i'm home! hongkong was awesome, i had a great time. i had never been to china before, so it was really interesting getting to know the culture and the way of living. i guess hongkong is not exactly represantative for china, but you definitely get a glimpse ;)
here i have some pictures for you, tomorrow i'll post more of them. i didn't buy a lot of things, because i'm not in the financial position. but i got some things, and i will post them one of the following days. i will only say so much: i broke a holy rule of fashion, but i really think that in my case it does not count ;)

i also went to see black swan yesterday, and i really really liked it. although it was kinda creepy (i get freaked out when people cut their nails or anywhere around them) i think it's a cool film and you should see it. natalie portman was very pretty and she danced like an angel, but who i asolutely LOVED was mila kunis! she has got that crazy, dark, sexy aura around her that made me google her right away. what i found out was shocking: the dated macaulay culkin for like 8 years or so!! he is such a sad person, don't you think? anyways, the broke up recently so i forgive her for that mistake...

i've also got some wardrobe resolutions i want to follow: due to the balance on my bank account i decided not to buy too many clothes anymore, not until summer. i want to make a list of items i really need or want to buy, and once the item has been on the list for two weeks and i still think i need it i can buy it. but i will still have a limit of 3 pieces per month. and for them, i have a budget of 50€ per month. if i don't spend the money in one month, i can add the money to next month's budget.
i had a look at my wardrobe, and i honestly don't need anything more, i have everything. in the last weeks i discovered that i prefer simple colors like black, blue, white, and nude, and i will try to create new outfits with what i have instead of constantly buying new items and wearing them once or twice before forgetting about them. let's see how long this will last...

cheers
