Pink fluffy unicorns dancing on rainbows 🌈

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..

So yeah, watch out with Stargazer.


Peace out xoxo

Live. Love. Laugh.

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!

Happy birthday, mum ♥

Had a wonderful day today <3

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!

Hope everyone is doing well





Now I'm a warrior, I've got thicker skin.

Wow, I haven't been on this blog since August! So much has happened and I kinda forgot about it since I'm using tumblr more and more for personal stuff. But today I had a wonderful day and I decided to start using this blog again.

I don't even want to think about the last time I blogged cause I wasn't in a good place back then. I won't talk about it, instead I will talk about the good things that have happened since then. I am in therapy now and doing much better at the moment. These couple of months have been a rollercoaster of ups and downs but I think right now I'm the most stable I've been since Summer. I'll give a quick update about my life atm:

I'm studying biology now.

I got my first tattoo.

I got my lip pierced.

I finally got the guts to dye my hair completely blue.

I became stronger in a lot of ways.

Right now I'm trying my best to catch up on school because I haven't studied much the first semester. I think I've finally found something close to my interest and I really don't want to lose it. It's science, it's hard, but I'm determined to do this. Despite my struggles I will do my best to pass my exams this year and don't give up. I'm having a lot of support from school now and people are helping me out, giving me tips on how to study and plan things so I'm going to use it and make this my year <3
