Bluntly Honest Opinion

I was watching the Netflix series Dynasty based on the older show with the same name a few days ago. It's basically about this business mogul family called the Carringtons who are always involved in some sort of scandals because they are uber-rich (watch the trailer here ). One of the characters is Sammy Jo, the nephew of the new stepmother Cristal, and one word to correctly describe him would be a freeloader. The other characters have often mentioned and even said to his face that he needs to get his shit together and to stop taking advantage of the Carrington's wealth and live comfortably when he's not contributing to the income of the family. On one occasion he replied with something along the line that he came from a struggling family, a real lower-middle-class family. He then said something that I feel like really hit me where it hurts. Is it really wrong to take what people offer you when you have to struggle your whole life? And I thought about it, you know. Co

I spend an insane amount of time taking care of my skin. It's almost a religion. I do it so religiously. I cleanse, double cleanse, tone, serum, and moisturise and then more. Like I drop hundreds of dollar on this thing you know. While I've got my breakouts and acne under control now, I still cannot control my pores. They are massive. And it doesn't help that it's getting hotter now and my pores are so visible. Way too visible. Especially when the sun is shining directly on them. Oh man I hate it. It's killing me. It's like the sun is shining a spotlight on all of the imperfections I thought I don't have. It doesn't help that I usually notice them when I'm with people or I'm almost out with people. Then I feel like crawling underneath the blanket and just cancel life. I'm figuring it out. I'm on my way. It's gonna be hard but I'm gonna need a lot of support from the beauty community but I know I'll figure it out. If

Just like basically everyone else on the planet right now, I am super motivated for this year. This definitely is a New Year's burst and I know that in a couple of days I will mellow and back to my usual procrastinating BS. So I am writing down in a way to keep myself accountable for my actions because if there is nothing I hate more than being seen as irresponsible or immature. Alright. This year I have decided to get my finances back in order. That means actually building up my emergency savings account and spending less money on dining out and paying back Afterpay instalments. I have watched a lot of YouTube videos which turns me back to detailed budgeting, a habit that I ditched ages ago when I was more financially secure. But budgeting doesn't mean that I'm not gonna splurge once in a while. It's just more, I guess, a controlled splurging. Saving and spending money on things that I actually want and need for a long time. The first item on my wishlist is to buy

This was a dead blog. I stopped posting years ago because I was ready to move on to a bigger project, something more complex, something more challenging. Something I wasn't ready to handle yet. Ultimately. So now I am back to the beginning. Something simple. I won't be posting images on Instagram about this blog nor I'll be posting updates on Twitter. It's a space for me where I can write down everything that I want. It will be raw and unedited but it will be me. Stay tuned.
