Blogging and the City

Well hello, it’s me the art student. Today I decided to do something a little different.

What rimes with vacation?

Relaxation!

So, after doing whatever the day brought me to do AND swim though seas of boredom, I decided to get a hair mask, some giant rolls and get my face mask out of the closet. 

Instantly my apartment was transformed into a spa. I got my iPad and put some relaxing/spa/relaxation tunes (because rolls fall off your head when enjoying some Nirvana), closed the curtains (because it’s boiling outside and it helps to keep the room cool) and jumped under the shower to start.

 

I don’t think I need to explain what happened, it’s pretty obvious. I am into burning oils right now, so I got some Eucalyptus essence oil.

Also I treated myself to some cold homemade lemonade, which is basicly: 1 lemon, 1 lime, lots of mint leaves, sugar, water, ice. Stir and enjoy. I said homemade not healthy (lots of delicious sugar involved here).

In my mind this is how I felt, not how I looked like.

By the way Raisa, there is a coffee place here around the corner, let’s go there once I really want to try it.

It's summer, now what?

After quite a stressful year, summer vacation finally arrived. (I write you now after resting for almost two weeks.)

What to do now? I have the feeling I’m supposed to run out of the country to consider myself having a “summer vacation”, instead I am still here. Why? Just because.

Well, I am actually very happy to just be at home. I live in this apartment for a little more than a year now and there are still some walls I need to paint (into my favorite wall color: white), a floor I want to replace and a few things to unpack (I have an unhealthy addiction to collect useless stuff, so there you go).

Let’s get started!

I did get started, BUT I also got distracted by meeting friends for coffee, reading some books, continuing on my “school”-stuff and baking bread… not the most exciting vacation but it makes me happy, I guess.

Let me explain the school stuff I am working on: I am an art student life=school, school=work, work=life. This formula does not apply to all art student, but I am the nerdy + weird kind. In September, when this royal lifestyle comes to an end and school starts again, you will see more into our “exiting” lives at the academy of arts, but for now let’s all have vacation.

I am wondering off the subject, hmm where was I?

Oh yes I remember. Another thing I would like to share is my window garden. Now don’t google window gardens because mine done not look like that, however it is growing well and makes a pretty site when the sun shines through my window.

AND we started this blog, yay!

Feeling very productive this summer! What are you doing this summer, and don’t forget to take care of yourselves.

Now, Raisa I need you to spice up this blog/website/thing, please post something that doesn’t sound like we don’t have a life outside art school (because we don’t).

I’ll see you soon, lady!
