Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year !!

Hei there yous!!

I know it's kind of late, giving it's already the first of January, but this holiday all I have been thinking about has been watching Lost, reading the Vampire Diaries aaand sleeping and wasting time. I am here now to say that I wish you had a Chirstmas near your family, a warm day that made you feel good, happy.

I, for one, during the Christmas Eve and the day before that, I helped my mum and my grandma cook and prepare everything for Christmas. I also convinced my grandma to bake me some special cookies with nuts and honey. I of course had to take pictures of it, before being baked and after, so that you can see them. I don't know the recipe, but they were delicious. My brother ate a lot of them as I haven't had a great appetite lately. Here you go.

On the second day of Christmas I visited my other grandparents and then spent the rest of the day at my aunt's and uncle's, with both my cousin and her French boyfriend. We had a great time and she kicked my ass when we played a race game on the game console.

In the next few days prior to the New Year's Eve, I spent most of my time in bed, as I had been sick until exactly last night. I got ready and I went to a friend's house alongside B and some other friends. We broke some glasses, the champagne bottles, we did karaoke, we watched a movie and we took silly pictures in the mirror. It was somewhat boring, but it was.. pleasant and far better than staying at home.

And that behind me is of course my Christmas tree at home xD

Overall, it was a pretty good night. I went to sleep at about 6 a.m. and woke up at about 2 and a half p.m. only to go and eat smth. Then I just did nothing. It felt good, haha. I hope you had fun, your own kind of fun and I wish you a very happy new year, in which you cand find yourselves ! Cheers !!

Hey there.

They say you don't realise when you change, when you grow up, when everything you have know and you have been is diffrent. And it's true. I am now 16 and I am as diffrent as I can be from a year ago, but I didn't realise it. On the 2nd of December I told myself that that was my last day at 15. I wanted to make it memorable, but I thought of no way of doing so. Why try to live more one day that any other day? So on the 3rd of December, the next day, I wanted to be happy. I wanted to try to not let anything upset me and even though there still were things I didn't like, I felt a little bit better.

A second, a day, a week, a month or a year older, I still want the same things. And I am willing to do better, I am willing to try in order to feel happy. I want to block out the things that don't matter, to focus ont he reality, on its good part and on how I can improve the bad part. I want to enjoy it, even though some days I have little to be pleased about. Crying is a part of life to and if I can't go on anymore, I'll sit down and cry. And then I'll get back up and try. Cause if I stop trying what's left?

This beautiful [ hopefully ] year ahead of me, I want to travel, I want to meet new people and talk talk talk. I want to be close with my family and I want to be a better friend because I realise that sometimes I am not. I want to draw, to write, to learn. I want to laugh, to have fun. I want to have the superfficial happiness of the age. And I want to be a better version of myself.

Please try to make every year matter, every moment. You won't get it back. Even if you're miserable, there are still things that make you a bit happy, like music, books, tea, oranges, hot-chocolate and sweaters, snow. Try to focus on those until life gives you a bigger reason and you to yourself.

I am going to go with a few so-called friends to a small party on Saturday. I have faith that it will be okay and that I will enjoy myself. Also, last Saturday, I my auncle and aunt came by the house and we celebrated my b-day in the family.

On your birthday try to be happy. You don't need to do crazy things, you just need to be with your close ones and try to smile from your heart.

See you,
Allexa.

Dressing up.

Hey there.

This week has been a crazy one, as usual, but it was worth it as yesterday, just after finishing my classe, arriving home and taking a nap I started getting ready for the anual Freshman Ball organised by our high-school. It wasn't that great of a party besides some staring, which I know means nothing, but I still enjoyed it and felt very happy, only to feel sour when I got home, and being a bit entertained by the Miss & Mr. contest. 

When the invited artist arrived, me and 4 girls left to go somewhere else, as we didn't enjoy his music. We wanted to go to KFC, as on the To-Do list was to go to a fast-food dressed up, but it was closed. So we decided to go to an italian restaurant instead, were me and B ordered chocolate cake and a non-alchoolic cocktail - Green Apple. The other girls said that it was a great drink, but it wasn't. It turned our teeth and tongues green. Just wait and see ! :D

B and Andra

Me and B with green teeth and that horrible drink that was supposed to be great.

We got home at about 2 o'clock. I went straight to bed and the next day, meaning today, I had to go to a maths class at school, so I didn't get to sleep much. Tonight B will come and we'll have a sleepover. Hope to not be too tired.

Bye bye,
Allexa.
