I ordered the albums 'Metanoia' and 'Everything is burning' from IAMX together with my ticket for the show in Lille and it arrived today! I also got the mp3 files for free but actually hadn't listened to them yet so I listened to 'Everything is burning' for the first time today and it's so good! It's like Metanoia 2.0
I really like what the album looks like. There are 2 discs and a booklet with the lyrics.
I think 'Metanoia' is my favourite album (together with 'Volatile Times') and I'm glad I finally bought it! (I still don't have all the IAMX albums whoops). In case you haven't seen it yet, here it is:
I loove the booklet, the inside is so pretty! And the disc reminds me of Emilie Autumn haha!
I'm super excited to see them live again next month <3
Have you listened to 'Everything is burning' yet? If so I would love to hear what you guys think of the new songs and the remixes!
I haven't been on blogger for a looong time and accidentally deleted all my google+ pictures so my blog is ugly af now and all my pics on my posts are gone :(
Idk how to fix it other than to add them all separately but I don't even know where to find all those pictures on my laptop. You can still read the text on the old posts, so that's something! I could also use this as a fresh start without actually deleting my blog. If there's actually anyone still reading it?
I'm not gonna give a long life update, but just gonna talk about more recent stuff and goals for the future.
I've been working on a new cover for the past 2 days and it's finally finished!
Last week I've been playing this song non-stop so I just HAD to cover it.
I'm so in love with Aurora's songs and I got a ticket to see her live in October omgg!
Anyway today I realized how lonely I actually am. I had to go outside to arrange some stuff for work and the weather was lovely so I called my sister to go drink bubble tea but she wasn't available and I just stared at my phone and there was literally no one I could think of to text
So I just went to the Bubble Bar on my own and had my first Bubble Tea ever!
Green Apple Mojito (non-alcoholic)
It was soo good!
Then I went to Kruidvat and got some stuff
and then I got home and recorded my video for the cover.
And that's pretty much it about today!
So what am I currently doing in life? Well let's just say that if fulltime fangirling was a job I'd be rich by now.
I'm now graduated from my one year acting course and am looking for a job. I'm taking this year off to work, travel and live, but of course meanwhile I still want to do auditions and work on my acting/singing,.. I'm also thinking of making vlogs again but this time without deleting them after 2 days ;)
We'll see where life goes. I'll keep you up to date!
This weekend there's a costume party and next week it's FACTS convention so I decided to dye my hair so it would fit my cosplay. I wanted to dye it red, but it turned out pink omg xD
I used Stargazer Rouge and bleached my hair. On the package it looked really red
While dyeing it, it looked bright red too and I really loved the colour:
But then I washed it out and it turned out really fushia pink..
In real life it's even brighter than the picture
I do like it, but it's not the colour I expected it to be. It's perfect for my cosplay, but I have to work next week so they're all gonna be shocked xD
I'm just going to wait for it to fade into a pastel pink, at least that's what I hope it will do. And perhaps after FACTS I will dye a darker red on top of it, idkk. I do like it but it's also too bright so I'm conflicted.
I spent a lot of time dyeing it so I don't want to do it all over again..
As usual I've been away for a few months because I keep forgetting about this blog. A lot has happened since the last time I wrote and my life made a positive turn!
I feel like I've started living again since June. I finally got out of the dark cloud that was preventing me from doing the things I like. I've started chasing my dreams again and got back into acting and singing. I also met the most amazing people and made new friends and I'm really grateful for that.
I'm not going to give a detailed description about everything, but I'll make a summary.
One of the biggest changes is that I'm going to stop studying Biology at Uni but am going to an acting school instead. Something I've wanted for a long time but couldn't due to circumstances. The school is called IAFT (International Academy of Film and Television) and they have a campus in Antwerp, right where I live! Classes start October 6th so that's in a month! I'm really looking forward to it but I'm also nervous!
Like I said I also got back into singing. It started with this small singing contest that me and my sister participated on. I wanted to try it to get more experience and to see what the feedback would be. The judges were really friendly and I got great feedback. They recommended me to follow singing lessons because I lack technique but also told me I had potential. That gave me hope to actually do something with my voice so I started making covers again and went to the music academy to ask if I can follow singing lessons there. They've put me on a waiting list but there's 95% chance that I can start!
Here's a video of the singing contest:
Oh yeah my hair is brown at the moment and it was lavender before!
So yeah, I've been really busy lately and I've been feeling better than ever!
We
celebrated my mum’s birthday (it was the 26th but because I was at my dorm we
celebrated it today). She didn’t want to plan anything and we decided to just
see how our day goes. We went shopping first and then went for lunch in a place
called Coffeelabs. It’s the first time I went there and it was so nice! We had
a veggie quiche and I had a hazelnut hot chocolate and afterwards a praliné one
:’). There she opened her presents and she was so happy! My sister gave her
soap and a conditioner from Lush and I gave her a book with ‘letters for mum’
that I personalized a bit. Then we went to a restaurant for dinner and ate
kumpir (Turkish). We talked and laughed and made plans and we just had an
amazing day. My mum was really happy and we were all full of positivity! We
decided to have a family day every month where we come together and do nice
things and made a list. Here’s
what we have:
Shopping day
Cinema
Go out for dinner/lunch
Go to the theatre, a musical,
museum,.. something artsy
Cozy night at home with either
1. movie at home, 2. tell stories, 3. have a witchy night with candles and
tarot, 4. do a quiz, play board games, 5. have a ladies and beauty care,..
Bowling
Citytrip
Visit our aunt and uncle in The
Netherlands
Relaxation day outside
So every
month we’re gonna choose one of these things to do and spend the day together.
It was a day full of good vibes and I can’t wait for next month!
