30 Day Challenge Day 2-4

Hey guys,

I haven't forgotten to update you on the challenge, however, I've decided that it's better if I combine several days in one post as there isn't anything thaat interesting to report.

Day 2: Sort out the sock drawer

I've got lots of socks. I mean a lot a lot. But! But! I keep my winter and summer socks in the same place, so in a way, it's normal for my drawer to be overflowing. On top of that my aunt-in-law (can I say that if I'm not married?) loves giving socks as presents, and she is the reason why I've got so many. I haven't bought myself a pair in... maybe never? Or once or twice in my life (before that my mom did that for me). So, I really can't throw away much as they're like new. I got rid of two pairs. I call that a win.

Day 3: Gift/donate 3 books

Not happening.

In our apartment, I've got one-fourth of all of my books and the others are at my parents' place. I've taken my favorite so I don't feel like gifting/donating anything. As an alternative I deleted some from my Kindle - books I know I won't finish.

Day 4: review the last three items you've bought

I bought two dresses (the same style but different color), one skirt, a pair of shorts and a pair of white sneakers during the weekend. I haven't had an opportunity to wear them as they're in the category "to be washed" (always wash your clothes before wearing them). But I love every single item. I don't think I buy things I don't need/love.

I'm beginning to question whether there's a point in me continuing this challenge as it doesn't seem that I need it but I've started it so I'll give it an honest try.

See you in a few days

What's new?!

Hello people, long time no posting! It's been a whole year since the last book review. Not that I've read much since then. Honestly, I feel like I haven't done anything in that time. According to Goodreads I've read 18 books since the start of 2020. How? I've got no clue. So, since last time I found a new job after a lot of searching. It's amazing how many shitty people are out there and how many of them are in charge of companies. Long story short I managed somehow to start working for a language center and it's became time Pros: -met great colleagues with whom we've become friends -the working hours weren't great, but at least during the day I had more free time Cons: - shitty boss who is always nice to you but at the same time doesn't care for their team, hence a lot of resignation - lies about the salary - lies about my future in the company: we had agreed for me to teach remotely from Monday till Friday but now suddenly...

PanThatPalette: Update #1

Hey guys, I think it's time for an update on the Pan That Palette Challenge. It's not going great actually, because most days I don't feel like putting on makeup before work. At first I was motivated and wanted to make progress as fast as possible but when I wake up in the mornings it's not on my priority list. I've hit a pan only on one color as you can see from the photo. And I've made my peace with the fact I'm not going to really use about 5 colors, which are Skylight, Transformer, Midnight Rainbow, Smoothie and Blacqua. I've tried to incorporate them in some looks but they're just too dark. And I suck at makeup so it's extra hard for me to not look like clown and a mess while wearing these colors. However, I did use all of the colors at some point even if just to take it off again in a few minutes, which in a way is a milestone for me, because I would never even think to put on black eye shadow. Now as to what I think about he palett...

Howards End by EM Forster

Hey guys, I read another book for my reading challenge( which by the looks of it would be a fail). This time it's another classic - Howards End by EM Forster. I became aware of the existence of this book by watching the HBO TV series. GoodReads Summary Only connect… A chance acquaintance brings together the preposterous bourgeois Wilcox family and the clever, cultured and idealistic Schlegel sisters. As clear-eyed Margaret develops a friendship with Mrs Wilcox, the impetuous Helen brings into their midst a young bank clerk named Leonard Bast, who lives at the edge of poverty and ruin. When Mrs Wilcox dies, her family discovers that she wants to leave her country home, Howards End, to Margaret. Thus as Forster sets in motion a chain of events that will entangle three different families, he brilliantly portrays their aspirations to personal and social harmony. My opinion The story of the Shlegel sisters is a compelling one. The portrayed characters are lively, the writ...
