Temporary Tattoo

A while ago, I saw a video on youtube where a girl used special "temporary tattoo ink pen" to draw a feather on her arm.
The tattoo looked really good, and I wanted to try it myself, but I didn't have those special pens..

Now you might wonder.. why not getting a permanent needle tattoo...
Well.. as much as I'm fascinated by tattoos, I wouldn't want to have a tattoo on my wrinkled skin when I get old..
In addition, there's this idea in my head, that I don't wanna mess up what God has perfectly created..

Still, I like having a temporary tattoo every once in a while.

So what I did is that I took a waterproof eyeliner (the liquid-y gel kind of eyeliner),

and I grabbed  another brush that is a bit easier to draw with.

(not every eyeliner brush is easy to use.. actually, most of them are hard to control.... 

L'Oréal's eyeliner would be a great choice, the one that looks like a marker.. well, the brush is fantastic, but the one I have is not waterproof, so I got my self a nice brush, and dipped it in the eyeliner I have).

And then I just drew a feather...
As someone who just got accepted into arts academy, It shouldn't be so hard.. right?

I think I actually did a good job.
If I had better materials, it could've turn out even better, but.. oh well..

Cherries..

In my village, most families grow fruit trees..
My family have cherry fields, peaches and apples.

The season of cherries have just started..

And so I would like to write a little bit about it.

Cherries grow on trees..
We cultivate them by hand, but in other places, they are cultivated with special machines..

Cherries come in different colors (Dark/light cherry red, sometimes pinkish color with soft yellow areas).
They can also be in different sizes.

Some taste really sweet, others could taste sour.. depends on their type.



Maybe the next time I can take more pictures, or maybe we can make some cherry recipes..

So stay tuned :D

Eating Healthy

Every good thing starts with a healthy body.
Eating, doing sports and sleeping well, are all things that I was doing wrong for a long time.
I decided it was time to change my lifestyle, and I'm starting to do so one step after the other.

The first step is; eating healthy.

Few days ago, I saw a peeler that cute the peel into noodle-shaped strings.

I've been looking for such a peeler for quit a while, and I got so excited with I found on, especially that it's ARCOSTEEL... one of my favorite kitchen tools brands.

The first thing I did when I got this peeler, was making a raw zucchini and carrots pasta.
It's quit easy...
You just peel the carrots and the zucchini (stop when you get to the seeds, they are too moist and breakable that we wouldn't want them in our pasta, but you don't have to throw that away, you can use is when cooking with rise, or in soups... or if you're on a fully raw diet, I believe you can juice zucchini.. maybe).

You can eat it as is... or you can heat it just a tiny bit, so the noodles become softer..
But don't over heat it.. we don't want to cook it, because it would loose some of it's nutritious value.

It's better not to add any salt... you don't need it anyway.. the pasta tastes really good on it's own.

I LOVE tomatoes, and so I minced a tomato to use as a pasta sauce.
This tastes really good.

That's not my hand... that's my boyfriend's hand!!!

Yesterday I choose to prepare something full of both proteins and fibers.
The last time I got a blood test, I had low protein (well, I didn't eat well, I know!).
So what I prepared was this...

Eggs with zucchini and broccoli!

First I used my new peeler to cut the zucchini into thin noodles, and then I cut them again into shorter slices...
I also cut some frozen broccoli into small pieces (you can use fresh ones too, but that's just what I had at the time).
I cracked few eggs, whisked when, and added the vegetables.
This time I added a little bit of salt and pepper, because the eggs need them.

I scooped the mixture into little silicon muffin cups, and then baked then in my little oven.
That was really good.

And the last but not least, is a picture of the really good breakfast I had this morning with my good friend Khalil.

Bon Appetite everybody :D

Free Hugs.. Alex Crockford

I just saw this video online..
Alex Crockford, shirtless, holding a sign that says "Free Hugs".

The concept is very beautiful... each and every one of us needs a hug every now and then, but not everyone has someone to give them the hug they need.
Spreading love, and giving free hugs, is kind of a reminder for some people that life is beautiful and it's worth it.

On the other hand, Alex is shirtless in the video, and his body is perfect!
And while watching the video, I couldn't but think that some people MUST walk the streets shirtless..
There should be some kind of law to ban sexy men from wearing shirts on the streets..

Watch the video, and you'll know what I'm talking about..

Geek Jokes

So I'm studying for a quiz I have tomorrow in a course called "computers architecture"..
And as someone with ADHD... I get bored easily..
And so I've been online, looking for some computers funny jokes...
And I ran into few hilarious ones..

I have to state, non of the following jokes was written by me..
But I'm not writing any sources, because they are the same jokes everywhere, and I don't know who are the original writers of the jokes.

So the First one goes like this:

Two strings walk into a bar and sit down. The bartender says, “So what’ll it be?” The first string says, “I think I’ll have a beer quag fulk boorg jdk^CjfdLk jk3s d#f67howe%^U r89nvy~~owmc63^Dz x.xvcu” “Please excuse my friend,” the second string says. “He isn’t null-terminated.”

Ahhhhh that's so funny....
“He isn’t null-terminated”... wohahahahaha!!!

And there is, of course, these two classics, that are related to when I'm studying right now...

There are 10 types of people in the world: those who understand binary, and those who don’t.

Q: Why is it that programmers always confuse Halloween with Christmas? A: Because 31 OCT = 25 DEC.

Then there's a joke I remember reading long ago...
And I remember laughing soooo hard after reading it...
It's really a great one for all those who know java...

“Knock, knock.”
“Who’s there?”

very long pause….






“Java.”

Want another one ?
Ok take this...

Q: "Whats the object-oriented way to become wealthy?"
A: Inheritance
Hahahahahahahahaha :D :D :D

I know non of these is new... but I laugh each and every time I read them :D

Ok, it's time to get back to studying....
See ya :D

Home made Kebab :P

Well, the title says it all..
Today, we had some homemade kebab for lunch.. yum.

The recipe is quit simple..
It's basically minced meet with diced parsley and onions.
The meat my family chooses for kebab is half veal half pork.
And then we season it well, mix it... and that's it.. it would be ready to cook.
It can be preserved raw in the freezer.. I'm not sure for how long, but it lasts quit a while.

Bon appetite :D

My New Babies

Please welcome the newest members of our family; Julia et Pierre.. :D

Yesterday, my boyfriend and I got two lovely little fish...
They are so cute..
The one with the blond tale is called Julia, and then the purpley.. kind of blue-ish one with the orange tale is Pierre..

We're gonna get them a bigger bowl next week..
But in the meanwhile, they're living in one of my Crystal wine glasses...
Oh, and they're pooping in it too :(

Yesterday they were moving too fast, probably because they were in a new environment.. which could be a bit weird at the beginning..
But today they seem to like their new home :D

Welcome to the family little ones :D
