Festival time

I really love going to music festivals! In Europe it is a big event! I guess everybody has heard of glastonbury! That is the festival of the festivals! The top! ... But I don't have money to go to it and it is all the way in great Britain... So I go to festivals in the Netherlands!

I went to Best Kept Secret this year (first year it was held) and it was next to a safari park! Really awesome! They had a lake and so many hipsters walking around. Everything was bio food and lots of vegatarian food! And the artists were really good! I went for the arctic monkeys and macklemore!

At festivals you usually have coupons... Well this one has coins! 1 coin was 2 euro! 1.5 coin was 1 beer!

Look how nice those coins look!

 This was the festival site (part of it). It was located next to a lake. On the left side was the mainstage and on the right were food stands.... so many food stands!

Arctic monkeys on mainstage!!! We went sooo close to the front!

loads of people behind us at arctic monkeys!

Macklemore in the tent stage... Far to the front as well!

 I love to do this! I really love festivals! This festival was really awesome and I am deffinitely going next year as well! But then a whole weekend (instead of just one day) and I'm going to stay in a bungalow then!

30 days challenge

Started a new project! The 30 days challenge! I'm currently doing the 30 days challenge for abs! 2 Friends of mine were talking about it in class and I thought I could use some more exercise as well! Need a flat belly before the bikini season starts! So I wrote my own excersize diary! 

Jealous of her abs! Give me that flat belly now!

I can't complain about guys with a sixpack! 

What to do for your own excersize diary? 
First start with making a block diary on paper, then search for the kind of excersizes you want to do! Do you want to get rid of your floaties? Try more twisting exercizes! Want to get rid of your belly fatties! Do crunches and leg lifts! Gradually increase your excersizes and don't forget to take resting days into your schedule! These are the days your abs will increase the most!

Take this challenge seriously! Put your challenge up your door and take out a time of the day to do the exercizes! Stripe your days down when you are finnished with that day! This will really motivate you when you see the red marks when you read your days excersizes! Motivation is the key word in the 30 days challenge!

Going well? Do not stop this challenge until you have finnished it! Not pleased with the result? Put yourself into a new challenge and make the schedule harder! 
When you really want to achieve a great difference and you have lot's of belly fats you cannot manage it with exercize alone! Keep that in mind! You won't see a six pack in just 30 days! Keep it realistic!

So let's start with the challenge! I have taken a picture of what my belly looks like before I started because I want to see the difference in 30 days of working for it!

Sorry I did 3 tips posts already, basically because I have those things in my mind and because I don't have much time to create something very creative! But I will be back with an outfit post soon!

Saving for the greater good

I actually have a great goal in my life but because it is so expensive I'm saving for it for some time now! But saving isn't always easy! Spending money is easier than saying you don't need to buy it and keep your money in your pocket for something greater! But how do you do it best?

Super kawaii money-box! 

Firstly you need a goal to save for, what do you really want to do in life? I really want to go to Asia! I want to go on holliday and then go to Hongkong, Japan and South-Korea. This is my saving goal! And because it is so expensive I know I must save a lot!

The first thing I did was opening an extra bankaccount, I put half the money I earn into that account. And when I have a lot of money left at the end of the month I transfer some extra money into that account. It's the best because you can't reach that account easily!

I also made a goal for myself. You say to yourself when you want to have a certain amount of money on your extra bank account. Remind yourself of the goal whenever you go shopping or when you get your pocketmoney/salary. I have put a note behind my laptop saying my goals because I only check my bankaccount behind my laptop and I have ordered to many things lately!

So these are the basic things. I also do a lot of diy things to pimp my room. So I don't spend very much money on those things. I also always bring food from home whenever I go out. Because sandwiches at work or school are way to expensive! And also try buying things at a dollar store. You can buy hair elastics for a high price at a warehouse, but you buy them way cheaper at a dollar store or in the supermarket!

And if you really want to spent your money on something you really want to buy then found yourself a cheaper version. I really like buying shoes for different outfits. But I buy cheaper versions or fake versions in the outlet store. Nobody gives a shit!

So these are some of the rules I follow. I don't have time to go shopping anyways so that's also why I don't spend much money. I'm occupied 6 days a week and the last day I do so much at home that I don't have time to go shopping :( But keeping yourself bussy is also a good thing for your wallet! Just remember what goal you have put for yourself and you will get there!

Study tips

So lately there have been (are still going on) exams worldwide!
In my country they are just done with the final exams, but since I'm in the pre-final year, this doesn't do me any harm at the moment. I may endure the stress in 2 weeks! But right now the teachers are throwing us to death with essays and last minut tests before the real test week starts and in that test week I'll be having some exams as well. So my problem, how can I stick to work instead off having my concentration fly all over the place?

Had some fun taking selca's after work ^3^ (it's 23.00 when I posted this)

I'm known for my super low concentration level, or as I like to call it, Sub-zero or non-Asian. So I decided to look around for any study tips because I need to do the next year really well and I would like to do this year ok as well!
My first thing I searched for: Study blockers for on the computer!
I found one for chrome, but it isn't working like I want it. So I asked a college how he keeps his concentration on his work. He told me he used cold turkey (this is a computer program! Not food!)
I downloaded the program and now I made it block my twitter, youtube and facebook for a month. These are my biggest distractions! The chrome blocker is blocking tumblr, deviantart and my most visited blogs. 

So blocking things is one, the other things are smaller and help you a great deal! I always leave my phone and iPod downstairs so I don't go playing on them! And when there is a serious testweek coming up I give my parents my laptop and they hide it somewhere... This is a big step for a internet addict!
When I study I drink like a liter of tea! (No kidding, but it's very healthy!)
And before I go studying I clean my desk so I won't fiddle with the things I find on my desk, or at least less than normal. 
And there was also a useful tip from my college, take regular breaks and don't go on after 8 pm. Ok I don't do the last one because I'm home around 5 pm and then I will only have 3 hours and I have to eat in between. But the regular breaks are a good thing! You have to remind yourself that they must not take longer than 5 minutes! Go do something in your room, stand up, walk around and clean some stuff up for example. This way you will get to work faster again!
Last thing, I pinn my hair out of my face and then it's just GO GO GO!

Just before Christmas I had test week and my concentration was no-where to be found so I ended up studying underneath my desk, in my brothers room and in the hallway. Some of my friends also do toilet studying until their parents get angry. But going away from your distractions works really well!

My road to Ulzzang (outfit)

I was free today as well and I had to time to create an outfit ^3^

I tried creating an ulzzang based outfit with some stuff I already had and the clothes I bought yesterday!

This is the result!

The shot from the entire outfit ( okay the shoes are not well displayed, but they are plain black heels)

The collar from the white blouse with the pink necklace. 

I also wear a winged ring with this outfit I found on ebay

I really love this outfit, But I have to change my clothes again because I can't wear white when I go eat something!

My road to ulzzang (shopping)

Because my normal clothes don't contain much ulzzang worthy and I don't have that much jewelry I decided to go shopping today (Also because I am free the entire weekend so I had the time! WOOOHOO)
So things I went looking for:
LOADS OF JEWELRY!
Cute blouses with an interesting collar
Shorts or skirts
and last but not least, a blazer.
So eventually I got everything except the blazer because they were so expensive! (I don't have that many clothing money okay!)

The cute jewelry I scored! All from the six and the bijou brigitte! Everything was 4 euro's except the necklace.

But still the very cheap for some nice jewelry (yes I'm a cheapskate, but then I can buy more ^3^)

Yay I really love this blouse, it's a bit seethrough and the collar is very interesting! 

And the fit is rather wide, but it is so nice to wear! (H&M, 14.95 euro's)

I was in love with this skirt when I saw it! It has a bit of the harajuku crazyness! So I couldn't pass it by!

 (H&M, 14.95 euro's)

This was a piece my mother found and she loved it to much so she bought it for me (it wasn't fitting her at all)

(Yes I went shopping with my mom, It is so relaxed to shop with her!)

This is like the first blouse, but than without sleeves.

(The Sting 19,95 euro's)

YAY shorts! Whenever I go looking for shorts I look for Sunderland, they always fit me rather well, they are cute and cheap! This grey one has stars on it YAY
(The Sting 19,95 euro's)

So this was all I bought actually. I think it passed for a day shopping! Freshing up my wardrobe bit by bit!

Now I need to go do stuff for school :(

DIY Polaroid heart

I really love polaroids and one day I got seriously bored and decided that I should pimp my room and I wanted to make a polaroid heart.

So now there is one problem. I do not own a polaroid camera so I had to do it another way. 

And today I got bored again and decided to make a DIY on this super easy way to make yourself a polaroid heart without actually owning a polaroid camera.

Yes I know crappy quality film (mostly crappy quality editing, I did it in less then 10 minutes)

But you get the essentials! (Ok I was also to lazy to take down the entire thing and try to get a good camera angle)

It's just your printer, a cute program and glossy paper! (oh and some poster buddies are your best friends in this!)

How cute is it!?  I only added pictures of my friends and family (except 1 key and 1 heechul picture) 

I really love it, It's right next to my door and if I turn really weird in my bed at night I can just look at it! 

Some kind of photocollage is really a must have in a cute room!
