Why I haven't posted anything in a while

It's been a while since I've posted anything on this blog... There's a reason why. It's a stupid reason, but nonetheless it exists... because I've been trying to make a wordpress page. I'm still working on it, but it takes far longer than I was expected so until I figure out how everything there works and how to make my page look the way I want it to look I shall keep updating this blog.

Hopefully I'll be posting things more often.

Long time no... post 2

I haven't write a post on this blog in a long long time. Mostly because I was busy with exams and uni projects, but also because I wasn't in the mood for writing. I was feeling down and I was also kind of disappointed with myself because I didn't manage to do my Blogmas this Christmas.

However now I'm back and hopefully I'll write more on this blog than I did before.

20!

I'll be 20 years old in a few hours and this last year was kind of tough year for me. I've struggled with a lot of things and thoughts, but right now I'm in a much better place. I can't say that I completely accept myself as I am or that I'm completely happy, but I'm getting there. Slow and steady.

So, on the 20th year of my life I plan to do 20 things:

1. Accept myself for who I am.
2. Smile more.
3. Laugh more.
4. Dance more.
5. Be more confident.
6. Stop caring what other people think about me.
7. Listen to good music.
8. Read good books.
9. Make new friends.
10. Have adventures.
11. Go to concerts.
12. Learn new things.
13. Stop being scared about making mistakes.
14.Stop overthinking about stuff.
15. Work out a little.
16. Love myself before expecting anyone else to love me.
17. Be more nice to people.
18. Capture important moments from my life.
19. Make beautiful memories.
20. Enjoy life.

This year I'll try to stay POSITIVE no matter what and my advice to you is to do the same. Stay positive and think positive and positive things will happen to you. See every struggle as a lesson that you learn from. Take evey opportunity that appears in your way. Fight for your dreams and don't settle for less then you deserve. But the most important thing is: don't let anyone tell you what you can or can't do or how much you are worth.

You are worth it. We're all here because we are worth it. Because we are meant to do something important on Earth. It might be small or it might be big, but nonetheless IMPORTANT!

J.B. Mania

No, I'm not talking about Justin Bieber, I'm talking about effin JAMES BLUNT!!!

I was one of the lucky people who got the chance to see him performing live at the Polyvalent Hall, in Cluj, on October 31st. He was the closing event of TiMAF (Transylvania International Music and Art Festival).


He performed for two hours straight and it was the best experience of my life. He started the concert with Face The Sun and closed it with one of my favourites, 1973. Of course he also sang his biggest hits like You're Beautiful or Goodbye My Lover, but also performed songs from his new album Moon Landing like Bonfire Hearts or Postcards (again, two of my favourites).


The public wasn't very perceptive in the beginning, but he made everybody go "mad" when he crow surfed. Everyone was running towards the stage and when he landed on his feet people were clapping and screaming. By the time the concert ended, nobody was sitting down. They were all singing and dancing.



Thank you, James Blunt for the wonderful experience! Thank you, TiMAF for the opportunity!

A massive crush and my concern about life.

On Wednesday I went out, in a club, with my friends. We had a great time. We drank. We danced. We laughed. I even met a guy. He seemed quite great. I mean, he had a sexy beard, amazing green eyes and a great smile. We danced. (He's a great dancer too). We even kissed a little. (Amazing kisser btw) He asked for my phone number. I gave it to him. (I think it's kind of obvious by now that I have a massive crush on this guy.) The next morning, he messaged and we talked for a little bit. Then, all of a sudden, he stopped texting me. Of course, I tried to keep the conversation alive, but at some point I ran out of subjects too...

I feel kind of disappointed now. I mean, I haven't liked someone this much in a loooong long time... Funnily enough, this keeps happening to me... I like someone and they don't like me back. Why is that?

Dear Life,


Why do you keep doing this to me?


Sincerely,

A disappointed human being.

Top 5 comedy shows you HAVE to watch

As an addicted to tv shows, I thought it was about time to make a post about my favourite comedies. Who doesn't love a good tv show that makes you smile and even feel better about yourself? So here are my top 5 comedies you should DEFINITELY watch.



The Office

The Office wants to be a "documentary" that revolves around the lives of the employees of a paper company called Dunder Mifflin. Now, I know what you may think... What's so interesting about some employees from a paper company? Belive me, it's not only interesting, but also incredibily funny. It has everything: comedy, drama, romance. You will laugh endlessly and get so attached to the characters that you'll feel the feels whenever they feel the feels.

I feel the feels just thinking about it...




Friends

I know, I know.. Who hasn't seen Friends and who doesn't love it, but let's be serious what kind of comedy top this would be without Friends included??




Miranda

Now this one is a British one and trust me is FANTASTIC! Miranda is this 6 ft. something of a  woman that is socially awkward. She lives alone, but is pressured by her mother to find a man and a proper job. She enjoys life, no matter how awkward it might gets and believe me..her life gets awkward constantly.





How I Met Your Mother

I loved everything about this show, except the finale. I mean, we endure 9 seasons of waiting for Ted to meet the mother and when he finally does they take her away. But nonetheless, you had to love Barney and his awesomeness and Lilly and Marshall and their awesomeness.




And last but not least...

Parks and Recreation

This one has the same basic idea as The Office. It's supposed to be a documentary about the Parks Department in Pawnee, Indiana, its employees and their adventures. The main character of the show is Leslie Knope, a perky woman, with big dreams that wants what's best for her city. Oh, and she loves waffles.





There are others tv comedies I enjoy watching, like Modern Family, New Girl or Hot In Cleveland and they're good, but I don't know, it's like I have a special connection with these five.

My favourite youtubers (Part 1)

At first I wanted to choose only five youtubers to talk about, but it's hard to choose because I follow so many great people that couldn't possibly leave out so I decided to divide them into different parts.

So here's my first part:



1. Blimey Cow ( https://www.youtube.com/user/blimeycow )

Their content is entertaining, interesting and talks about important topics in a funny and open-minding way. They want to "inspire laughter, community, and great conversation, while encouraging critical thought on important topics."  and personally, I think they're doing a great job!!





2. PsychoSoprano/Colleen Ballinger ( https://www.youtube.com/user/PsychoSoprano )

Better known as MirandaSings, Colleen is a talented and genuinely nice person that always puts a smile on your face. So if you ever feel sad check her videos and I guarantee you, you will feel better.




3.JoshuaDTv ( https://www.youtube.com/user/JoshuaDTV )

Another funny and talented human being. Oh, also he is Colleen's fiance. They're perfect for each other. Just sayin'.  Go check him out!!!




4.IISuperwomanII ( https://www.youtube.com/user/IISuperwomanII )

I remember watching her first video. I was having a really bad day and I watched Girls on their period and it made laugh so hard!! Ever since, I can't get enough of her videos! Oh, but her videos are more than funny, they're also uplifting and meant to make you feel better about yourself. She is amazing!!





5.grav3yardgirl ( https://www.youtube.com/user/grav3yardgirl )

Honestly, I can't even remember when I started to watch her videos, but it was a looooong time ago! And just like with Superwoman's videos, I can't get enough!! She is funny, sassy and she seems like such a wonderful person! And I looove her craziness!!!





There you have it! Five of my favourite youtubers! And even though I haven't met them (yet), they all seem like genuinely nice people! Go check them out!
