Yeah, I know, I never do this kind of stuff. Especially not snail mail themed stuff. Usually I just complain about how difficult it is to send snail mail, or rant about how weird the lady at the post office was. Not this time though. This post was actually requested by Cora from Tea Party Princess so... I'm going to be serious for once, or at least try to, and show you how I make...
The title of this post is actually pretty misleading. Don't worry, it's not clickbait. It's just that I didn't catch the travel bug later in life like most people. I was born with it. You know how some diseases get transferred from mom to unborn baby? That's how I got the travel bug. I was a freaking fetus in the Himalaya and Boston. I was born with it. I grew up with it. It's part...
I've always had a thing for superheroes. When I first started writing back in 2nd grade, I wrote superhero stories. But if you were to ask me what really sparked my interest in superheroes, without a doubt I'll say: superhero movies. Over the past couple of years I've seen quite a few superhero movies, most of them in theatres (or on airplanes, don't ask me why). So with a pretty great year in superhero movies...
'This city has many faces,' my friend likes to say. Not just about Antwerp, she actually says it about a lot of cities. But, as we were road tripping our way to Belgium, she mostly said it about Antwerp. It made me curious. To be honest, I'd already been curious about this city since October, when I heard a story about pizza, night clubs and general weirdness that took place on the streets of Antwerp....
There are many things I'm not good at. Handling food is one of them. Eating fruit is another one. Smoothies seem to combine these two skills in a way that makes me question why I ever thought making smoothies was a good idea in the first place. Anyway, once I got the idea into my head, it had to happen. I was going to try and make some banana smoothies. Which, I soon noticed, came...
It started on the streets of Ljubljana. I'd seen some murals here and there. Then someone recommended me the Ljubljana Graffiti Tour. I did the tour and fell in love with street art. From graffiti to stickers to stencils, anything slightly out of the ordinary that gives a city color is pure awesomeness to me. I didn't know shit about it, but I soon learned about some of the big names: London Police, Space Invader...
In December I got the ambitious idea of sharing my geekiness by doing comic book reviews on this blog. In January I posted my first review. So far so good. Then I asked if people wanted to see reviews of certain comic books they liked. I regret asking, because that's how I ended up writing this review. Brace yourselves, ladies and gentlemen, it's going to be a heavy post... So... The Killing Joke. Not an...
Sometimes life is shit. You're failing your classes, your friends don't have time for you and you can't do anything right at home. Before you know it you're hating on everything. Before you know it you're stuck with a negative mindset. Since I'm easily sucked into these downwards spirals of negativity, I decided to start a Happy Jar to remind me of all the good and fun things in my life. One year ago I...
Yes, you read that right, I'm officially back! For those of you who've missed me: don't worry, I won't disappear the way I did ever again! For those of you who didn't notice I was gone: I was gone, but now I'm back! Minus a boyfriend, but with a plan for the future and a lot more optimism. Now I'm getting ahead of myself though. Let me fill you in on the details of what...
