:: BITS OF MY WEEK ::

Another week has passed and yet again it`s time for sharing bits & pieces from my life. :) 
I guess it was a good week, even though It`s always possible to do better (also worse), but I think the right way is to think that you can always do better than before. At least you have a new goal in front of you, which is always good & fun. 
Today is a productive day for me, I finished reading a book (Haruki Murakami  - What I talk about when I talk about running) , than I hang out with my parents a bit, continued with writing my thesis & now I felt it`s time to make a short stop on the blog, so I`m here writing this post. :)






Anyway the photos are telling you that :
1 I went to a concert at the castle in my hometown, which I think it`s the perfect ambient for this kind of things.
2 + 3  Chilled at my friend`s place, where we were chasing her cat around all day long cuz he played hide & seek with us
4 Used the bike a lot, since my car died the other day 
5 I found this gramophone so I had to see if it`s still working....yup, it`s working. 
6 My parents playing cards.. 
7 The chillout spot under the apple tree, where I enjoy the nature.. 

Haha and I just realized there is no food in the photos & with that thought I became hungry so I`m off to the kitchen now... :D

Have a great Sunday or what`s left of it! :)

:: NEW IN ::

I usually don`t buy things on sales, cuz I don`t really like the crowd and the rush, but lately (like the past few years) we have presales, so the sales are not that bad anymore. This year I purchased quite  few things and I`m happy that I went on a coffee that day, cuz I ended up going from store to store with my friend & in the end we had a really good day together. 
Btw I`m really sick of everyday routine, so I can`t wait for my holidays to begin, cuz I really need some relaxing time. Also my b-day is next month and I`ll spend it with my good friends that I met in Lisbon during my erasmus. We have reunions like twice a year & summer one is starting exactly on the 17th of August (my bday) ! It `s the best possible thing/gift that can happen to me & it`s already the second time in the same place with the best people! :) Of course I`m super excited! 
What about ur summer holidays? You already came back or are you still in the waiting mode? :)

:: FILM :: THE HELP ::

I watched this yesterday before going to sleep and I did not wake up pretty, cuz I cried my eyes out. :)
I should write this yesterday when I was still full of emotions and thoughts, but I can say,that everybody should watch a movie or two like this, cuz it`s good for a human moral, which people seems to forget so easily. Anyway, another good movie that is worth to be seen - IMDB (8,1/10).
Do you have any suggestions what should be my next one?

:: GOOD VIBES FOR A CRAFTY MIND ::

If you want to be creative you need a good working space, like these below for example.  :) 
I`m not saying that you can`t be creative otherwise, but it definitely helps if you have a pretty surrounding and a neat bright space. ;) 
My favorite would be number two and the last one, cuz of the rustic touch.

:: LA CUISINE, C'EST MON TRUC ! ::

Haha, I totally used google translator for the title, because I don`t know a thing about the french language, except the most simple things & a few sentences, that my friend Pierre thought me a few years ago. The deal was, that he should give me a new sentence each week, but in the end, I think we ended up with four or five sentences. :)
Today it was one of those rainy days, that are perfect for reading & baking. Ahh, I love days like this, with no rush at all, taking all the time just for yourself. 
I wanted to make something sweet at first, but than I had a wish for quiche (it even rhymes, how cool is that?!) for quite a while, so I decided to go with the salty lunch option. :) 
I found recipe online for this one, but the thing was I didn`t really had all the main ingredients, so I just opened the fridge and improvised a bit & it turned out really good. :) 
You can find some recipes here

:: BITS OF MY WEEK ::

I`m waiting for the weekend to begin, so I`m really happy cuz tomorrow is Friday.
Is there any special reason that I`m waiting for the weekend? No, not really. It`s just because I`ll have a lot of time for myself and my projects! On Saturday there is already another art fair in Celje, which is really amazing and I`m looking forward to go there and see all the ladies with their beautiful crafties (I`m not sure that`s even a word, but I kind of like it). :) 
Ahh btw today I`m a good girl, so after I came from work I started cleaning the house. First I made a playlist, than I turned speakers really loud and than it was time to start the show cleaning...It`s already past lunch time, so the next thing on my list is cooking. I`ll make some cauliflower soup and maybe tortillas...we`ll see. :) 
I posted a set of photos from this week & the special one is the second one with my friend Jana. It was a goodbye cuz the next morning she went on a trip to Mexico + she really wanted to be on the blog. :) 
Jana, I hope you are having a blast wherever you are !!

:: FLOWERS MAKE ME FEEL GOOD ::

I know it`s Monday, but try to make the best out of it! ;) 


Yesterday I was feeling kind of down in the afternoon, but than I went for a walk with my friends and picked up this flowers on the way, so I had a pretty bouquet when I came home. It made me feel better.

:: BITS OF MY WEEK ::

Well, my life was much more interesting when I was a student and had shit loads of free time, so I could go and do whatever/whenever, but being an "adult" with a serious job, isn`t that bad as well, it just brings a lot more adjustments & obligations. 
Like I said a couple of times before I`m a summer child, which means I love summer + I was born in August (yup, my b-day is coming!). Sea, sun, beach  & music = me happy! :) 
Picnics, summer parties, hiking, just hanging around & drinking lemonade, reading a book under the tree, summer breeze, hot days, summer dresses.... seriously, what`s here not to love!? 
Anyway, I made a new label - "Bits & pieces from last week" and it will look kind of like this post (+ I did something similar before here and here) & that`s it. 
Have a great Saturday, my plan is to read, watch a movie, go running before the rain starts and maybe have a drink with friends & fall asleep early cuz I`d really need that! :) 

xoxo, Maja   

btw this song would totally go together with my formula : sun, beach, sea & music = me happy! :)

:: cART - ART FAIR IN CELJE ::

This Saturday we had an art fair (FB) in my hometown (Celje), which I was really happy about, because we don`t have much events like this (bravo girls!). I really enjoyed it, even though it was quite small. I hope that next time there will be even more artists participating, because I know quite some people that are doing amazing things and would totally fit in! I have a feeling that our lil town is finally waking up, so after they finish with renovating the city center, I hope that people will finally realize that there is more than suburban shopping malls!
Well, my Saturday was perfect! First art fair and than I met girls for a coffee "at the beach" (amazing chillout place next to a river which I mentioned already here), after that I went to say hello to Mimi cuz she was working at Vila Malina, so it was cool beacuse I did two things in one (say hello to a friend and check what`s new in the shop) and for the grand finale, we had a picnic at Iva`s place where we enjoyed the sun, lemonade and a good company.  :) 
Ah, I can just wish for more days like this. 

xo, Maja
