TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR MIND AND MEDITATE


Im sure lots of you have seen those bathtub pictures on tumblr and Ive wanted to give this a try for such a long time. 
I was so excited because the pictures Ive seen looked just beautiful and I thought itd be so easy to do! Well, to give you a short summary about that photoshoot:
- my eyes started burning like hell as soon as I put my head underwater ( I dont even know why I didnt put any soap or bubbles in the water )
- I accidentally breathed in through my nose while I was underwater so my nose hurt really bad too
- I accidentally breathed in through my mouth while I was underwater so I started coughing for like 5 minutes
- I hit my head on the water- tap because I couldnt open my eyes
- I forgot to put waterproof make up on so after 1 second my mascara was all over my face
- After taking like 200 pictures of my face that all looked like crap really bad because apparently I am really good at making stupid faces and 
you better not forget that mascara all over my face, I decided to cover my face with my hands and yeah- I got two good shots! Better than nothing I guess :p

Oh and by the way, LISTEN TO THAT SONG. Ive never been a huge black eyed peas fan but lately I started listening to some songs and they're just stuck in my head. 
I just love that song so much, listen to the lyrics or look them up ( right HERE) they are SO true. I used to listen to that song when I was younger and 
my english was really really really bad back then so I didnt even understand the message of the song but now I do and it just makes me think about so much stuff. 
Great song. Listen to the song and read the lyrics and tell me what you think.

I saw this healthy and quick pancake recipe on one of my favorite blogs UNDRESSED SKELETON by taralynn mcnitt. 
I have just so much respect for her, she is an amazing and beautiful women and her story and success kind of inspired me. 
She does not only post super yummy and healthy recipes but also advise for getting more active, eating healthier etc. 
About 2 months ago I decided to eat healthier and try to lose some of the weight I gained here in Canada ( I eat way too much junk here, 
welcome to northamerica ) and her blog does not only give me inspiration but also motivation and encouragement. 
Go check out her blog and tell me what you think.

I WANT TO BREAK FREE

Shoes- Vans // Tights- Ebay // Leatherjacket- Gina Tricot // Necklace- Bijou Brigitte // Headband - Alexander Mc Queen

I ordered these tights a few weeks ago and they finally arrived. 
Black 'n' White stripes are a must have for this spring/summer and you you can see striped tights, shirts etc basically everywhere. 
I was kind of skeptical at first because I usually just wear basic black tights and I didnt know if these ones would suit me. 
I tried them on and they looked better than I thought they would! The vertical stripes make your legs look skinnier and you're definitely gonna catch attention.
 I was gonna wear my converse chucks first but I looked like an idiot a clown so I was just like how about no and I decided to wear my vans again. 
As you can see in the pictures, its FINALLY getting summer here in Winnipeg. --insert happy face here--
The last weeks we had around 20 degrees and the sun was shining all day- perfect!

I just love Rice Krispies- probably one of the best things I've had here so far. 
Everytime I go to my friend Dylan's house I eat like 200 Rice Krispies (haha sorry about that Dylan) because I just cant stop eating them once I started!
 I never knew how to make them but a week ago we made them in Food and Nutrition and I was surprised about how easy it was! 
Rice Krispie Pops are so quick and easy to make and they are the perfect treat not only for children but basically for everyone! 
Have fun trying out the recipe and give me some feedback if you want to :)

ALL NIGHT SHE WANTS THE YOUNG AMERICAN


I dip dyed my hair with Kool-aid again- surprise, surprise ( not ).
This time I used pink because I really wanted it for such a long time and it turned out great. 
It just lasted for 2 days though which was great because I dont really like having colored tips for a longer time.
I ordered these hats ( BOY and HOMIÉS) a while ago and I just love them! Homiés is a collection designed by Brian Lichtenberg and it's basically a playful "nod" to the famous and really expensive french high fashion brand HERMÉS. 
I just thought that this was such a funny and cute idea, thats why I bought it :)
In case you didnt already know, I am a hardcore David Bowie fan and I could make hundreds of blogposts 
just filled with Bowies songs- these two I posted here are some of my favorites, LISTEN TO THEM!!! 
Whats your favorite singer/band and why? Love, Tina

ps its almost may and theres still tons of snow on the ground and 
its around zero degrees all the time fuck you winter can it please be summer already??

There is a blogpresentation at aniceamy and at viktoriasarianas- go check out their blog :)

BANFF, ALBERTA



As I promised, here are some of the pictures that I took when we were in Banff. 
Banff is a small city in the Rocky Mountains and its just so beautiful!
 I took over 300 pictures in these 2 days haha- there was just so much to see. 
Ok I have a little story for you: You see the big castle in the 4th picture right? 
There is a legend that a few hundred years ago, a women and a man married in there. 
Right at that night, the women fell off the stairs and died. Thereupon the man killed himself. 
That castle is now a huge and very expensive hotel and it is one of the most popular hotels in Canada-
 but people say that the ghosts of the women and the man are still inside that hotel- around 30 % 
of all people that stay in that hotel claim it haunted. Interesting, isnt it? 
Do you believe in stuff like that? I actually dont but hearing that story made me shiver..
Love, Tina
