#SeizeTheSummer Update

Hey everyone!

As you may or may not know, I did this thing at the beginning of the summer, where I listed all the things I wanted to do over the summer, a kind of summer bucket list. Also, I said that I would report back to tell you which of these things I did. And feel ashamed because I probably didn't do most of them. Damnit.

So here's my list:

I wanted to...

...make a friend while i was away. DONE! I met this really nice girl in Italy, She was very shy but as I am not, that fit quite well.

...flirt. FAIL. I did come into contact with a cute italien guy, but he was to old for me and didn't seem interested. Oh well.

...tighten my friendship with the girl I went away with for two weeks. DONE! We definetely tightened our friendship and although there were a few bumps along the way, we had a great time.

...take A LOT of photos. DONE! I took sooo many photos, check some of them out here:
Italien Photo Diary

...go to a concert or festival. FAIL. This is a real bummer, because I was going to go to a pool festival, but it got called off at the last minute.

...do sports. DONE! I actually went to the gym quite often during the summer, plus I went swimming and hiking  (a little bit). Very proud :)

…write, write, write on this blog and privately. DONE! I filled loads of pages in my journal over the summer and wrote quite a few blogposts too. Check some of them out here:
Judgement & Jewelry
Telling the Truth & Lying for a Reason

…read at least five books. DONE! In the first third of my holiday I read tons, in the second half not so much, as I was busy with the aforementioned friend. I will be writing some book reviews very soon though…

…communicate more with my internet friends (YOU!). With this one I'm not sure. I did make some new friends, but some of my closest buds kind of disappeared off the face of the internet. You could have said goodbye, you know? *scowling emoji*

…get a job. DONE! Yes, I got a babysitting job, which will be lasting for 10 weeks. So glad!

If you lasted this long through my bundle of summer to-dos, thanks!
I hope you had a great summer and were able to check everything off your bucket list.

Back To School Motivation

Hello everyone!

The sad truth is, the summer is slowly coming to an end, and that means school will be starting sooner or later, depending on where you live. Which means a lot of bad things, because school is more often than not quite stressful and annoying. But as we can't stop school from coming, I decided to make a list of the good things that come with the start of term.

-You can buy loads of cute new stationary
New books, new pencils, new notebooks, new everything. I don't know whether it's only me, but I love buying new stationary and organizing everything. It gives me a nice feeling of starting fresh and orderly into the new school year.

-You can see your friends and classmates again
You might not have missed them all, but it will be nice to see some of your friends again, right?

-It's a new start to try to  achieve your goals
You have another try to impress yourself and your teachers and turn over a new leaf.

-You can finally try out all those cool BTS YouTube tutorials
Who hasn't seen them, DIYs, breakfast and lunch ideas, outfits, hair and makeup tutorials. It seems like every female YouTuber is trying to make BTS a little bit better (some with more, some with less good results). Some of them are a little cheesy, but that doesn't stop me from watching literally every one of them, does it?

-You might be getting the teeniest bit bored
Let's face it, summer holidays can be very long if you have nothing to do. Being a bit bored is fine, and it might even get you excited for school. A little bit.

-You can tell everyone about all the great things that happened over the summer
What would all the summer adventures be if you couldn't tell anyone about them? You are allowed to make your friends a wee bit jealous when it comes to holiday experiences.


I hope this list has helped you a little, and upped you back to school motivation a bit. If you have any tips for school motivation, please leave them in the comment section below!

Love, Mia xx

#SeizeTheSummer

These are the things i want to do. They might be weird, they might be boring, but I don't care :)

I want to..
...make a friend  while I am away
...flirt (my love life literally DOES NOT EXIST. That has to change.)
...tighten my friendship with a girl I am going away with for two weeks
...take A LOT of photos, most of which i will probably be posting on this blog

...go to a concert or a festival
...do sports in form of swimming and riding my bike
...write, write, write on this blog and privately
...read at least 5 books
...correspond more with my internet friends (YOU)
...get a job

At the end of the summer, say, the end of september, I wil report back about what I did, what I didn't do and what maybe happened that wasn't on this list.
I hope that you will participate and are interested in my plans for the summer :)

#SeizeTheSummer

helllooo!

this is just going to be a quick post, because i am soo on edge right now.
so, where i live summer has begun. also i don't feel like capitalizing anything today.
i thought to myself: you know what, this year i want to seize the summer. do stuff. reach goals. do more stuff.

if you read my last post, you will know, that i am bored with my life. i have to do more stuff. and what better way to achieve that than to tell the internet? so, if you want to come with me on that journey and get out your creative side (which i don't do very often) to make this summer amazing, please write a blogpost about what you want to do and label it with the hashtag "seizethesummer".
we will, as a blogging community, make the most out of the summer 2k15!
ok, that's my idea, what do you think?

I just remembered that I have like 6 followers. I don't think anyone will do this. Oh well, I will.
