The Christmas Tag / + bonus

Hello people!

It's the most beautiful time of the year, aaaaaand I'm so excited! Haha, I know I'm a little bit early this year, but you don't mind me. I won't be able to write this post later because I'll be super busy, doing all those super cool things for Christmas, and parties. Christmas is my favorite part of the year and my favorite holiday, those days make me feel so warm and calm, I simply enjoy them to the fullest. Many of you will agree with me. So, for this post I want to spread some Christmas cheer, share some tips and interesting stuff with you! Let's go!

1. What is your favorite Christmas movie?

I have so many I can't even count, but one of the my fave fave is Home Alone II; Lost in New York. I’m not even sure if it's possible to count how many times I've seen it. It makes me feel so good, and New York is my dream home so that's a simple reason.

2. Where do you usually spend your holidays?

At home, always. We like to spend it home, and I personally think that's what makes it very special. My other family comes to visit us, and we practically have a celebration together, and it's really really nice!

3. Is your Christmas tree real or fake?

Even tho I like big real Christmas trees, we have a fake one, and it's not that bad either, we only have it because our living room is full of furniture pieces and we don't have lots of free space for a bigger one, but current one is also pretty.

4. Be honest: do you like giving gifts or receiving gifts better?

I honestly like both immensely. It feels really good to give gifts to show someone you love and appreciate them. But it is also nice to receive because you get to use the gift and it shows someone cares about you.

5. What would be your dream place to visit for the holiday season?

*screams loudly* NEW YORK definitely. I mentioned it so many times, it's crazy. I love that city, I love winter, and holidays, that would be my dream come true!

And the final one...

6. What makes the holidays special for you?

Through the year I have no breaks, and I work really hard so when holidays come I'm super excited. I get few weeks off, and I spend it very well, with my family and friends, I enjoy them to the fullest. I'm up for anything that's fun! Just thinking about it makes me happy!

GIFTS FOR YOUR LOVED ONES.

1.) CHRISTMAS SWEATER.

Always a good choice, and everyone loves them. You can get one for whoever you want (eg. your dad, mom, brother, friend, grandparents etc..) You won't be wrong with the choice!

2.) SOCKS

If you have white Christmas and it's cold outside, this is one of good choices too just like sweaters. It's nice, and useful! Veeeeeeeeery warm! :)

3.) CANDIES

If you have a family rule not to spend too much on gifts, this one is totally for you! It's cheap, but yummy!

4.) DECORATION

Want something special or different for your special person? Find something unique! Or make it on your own. It's all about ideas ideas and ideas..

Thank you for reading + your support. It really means a lot to me.

I wish you all the best, enjoy your holidays! xoxo

Fashion mix :)

Fashion trends and my wishlist mix

Helloo! I've been away for some time because I had to fix some things, and study, and I barely ever had some free time (even when I did I was hanging out with friends and watching my new favorite TV show, you'll find out which one is it..) Anyway, today I got an idea to actually post some new fashion trends, and my wishlist and all things that I like in general.

My favorite three outfits, I'd wear them for any occasion. I'm sure many of you will agree with me. Combination of cozy and casual is always a winner!

For all school/college girls these combinations are brilliant!

My obsession this year goes to: COATS, I just simply love them. They are always so comfy, and cozy, so it's extremely good idea to wear them because at the same time you'll feel warm and satisfied. So, give them a try!

back to school

Hi!

So my school is starting soon, and even when I think about it I'm not feeling very well since I got used to this freedom, and sleeping as much as I can, relaxing, hanging out with my friends all the time etc...but this is going to change, so I have to prepare, mentally.. I need to focus more, because I've realized how much education is important and I just can't stand here quietly. I'm stressed out as everyone, but I try to calm myself from time to time. For every rough days/weeks I have my best friend there so we'll get through it together, I can say I'm not so afraid like I used to be. As you can see, I'm trying to stay positive, but I'll probably go and cry later, haha! Go with the flow. It has to be done. You can't run away. Just do it, everything will be fine. If you need someone to talk to, or any kind of help, I'm here for you all.

I thought what can I do to make school a little easier, and first thing that came to my mind: masterpost!! so I'll post bunch of websites and masterlists and I'm sure it will help us all. :)

Health&stress relief;

SLEEP

Most important thing. We need about 9.5 hours of sleep nightly, but most of us only get 7 hours of sleep. We need to change that. Studies prove that humans with less sleep have a much shorter attention span and are more likely to forget new information easier and quicker. In Croatia classes start around 7am, nobody likes that schedule. (read why + more) Today, most of schools are considering a later start time because it gives students obviously much help to perform during the school day. So thumbs up for that!

MY FIRST POST

my first post

Welcome to my first post!

My name is Marinela, I'm a high-school student living in Croatia with my family. Everyone I know can agree that I'm a good student and that I like to study. But what I don't like is school, in general. My favorite subjects are history and math. I just find everything interesting in those subjects, and I liked it from the begging. People always find me really shy, and not really a sociable person. And i'm actually not, I always need some sort of a time when I'm getting to know someone, and I don't speak much, I just listen. I like to listen, if you're an interesting person I'd listen to you non stop. But when I have to talk, it's really hard for me, because I can't keep a small talk, I enjoy talking about some deep topics, where I can express myself. My opinion about small topics and conversations aren't good at all, I think it's just pointless. People need to talk about interesting stuff and deeper things, so they get to know each other better. That's just my opinion. You can respect it or not. But I bet people would agree with me. I'm that kind of person, very shy but when you get to know me, I'm really open minded and talkative. From my story, I've learned that you shouldn't judge anyone especially in the beginning because you don't know them. Back to me, I make friends very hardly, because of all that situation, and I don't even mind it. You know why? Because I think if people want to be friends with you, hang out with you, do all the crazy stuff with you, they will do everything to make you feel good, and they will always be there for you. So you don't have to be afraid of being alone, because you know if they did all of that for you, they will stay. You won't be alone.. And I like that, I like to think that way. Because if you haven't noticed, I'm trying to be positive, even tho I'm living in this negative world.

Why am I blogging?

I've been looking for a place to express myself for a very long time, and now I finally decided to do it here. I'll write, and I hope I'll become a better writer and thinker. That's nothing bad, I'm actually excited, I'll learn a lot from other people. So if you're reading this, I already love you. Once I start writing about my life and the thoughts that shape it, I’ll begin to think more intentionally about who I am, who I am becoming, and whether I like what I see or not. And that just may be reason enough to get me started. Blogging requires time, devotion, commitment, and discipline. And just to be clear, those are all good things to embrace, they will help me get the most out of my days and life. I guess this is enough. I'm blogging because that's simply cool.

What will I be blogging about... (?)

About everything. Mostly about my interests, because I enjoy writing about it, it makes my day. So my interests are traveling, fashion, sports (especially tennis), home interior, baking and cooking, health, and other cool stuff. You can request whatever topics you want me to write, I'll write them, express my opinion etc.

How can you leave feedback.. (?)

Can I leave comments? Absolutely, go for it!
