Teen wolf

Hello guys,

Hope you had an amazing week so far. For me, the weekend starts tomorrow. I asked my boss for a day off on Friday, as I'm planning to go to the mountains for what I hope will be the last snowboarding trip this year. As much as I came to enjoy winter sports, I'm desperately looking forward for spring...And tomorow is supposed to be the first day of spring (yeeey!).

On a different note, I'm planning to get a haircut of some sort, nothing too extreme, maybe even change the color of my hair...My winter depression kept me far away from the hairdresser and I'm now realizing that my hair looks awful. We'll see how that goes...I hope I don't end up with this crazy haircut :)) I'm pretty weak when it comes to suggestions about what my hairdresser "thinks" would look great on me...I go over there with a certain idea of how my hair should look like, and end up with a totally different hairstyle :).

I'll keep you posted!

Love,

Mamalina

Celebrating Love

Hello guys,

Tomorrow, we'll be celebrating love the Romanian style. Yep, we have our own Valentine's day, it's called Dragobete.

Dragobete, unlike Valentine's day, has more of a mystical significance. It is inspired by nature, it is the day that birds start to build their nests and there is a common belief that people tend to copy nature's rituals. This day is considered to be the first day of spring, so fingers crossed.

Dragobete is a holiday of love, full of superstitions and magical rituals, both for single people wanting to find true love and for couples who want to make their love stronger.

I, for one, will have even more reasons to celebrate, because tomorrow is also my boyfriend's birthday.

Happy Dragobete, everybody!

Love,

Mamalina

Feeling 27, acting 17...!

Hello guys!

Hope you all had a nice Monday and a great start to your week.

My birthday is coming soon, and I must confess I have mixed feeling about it...I cannot believe I'm turning 27 (?!). I'm a very childish person, I'm not sure how I should feel as a 27 year old :). I always thought I would be married by my late twenties, and have kids, but time goes by sooo fast and here I am, almost 27, the same old me, an immature girl trapped in a woman's body. I'm definitely not ready for adulthood.

 I still don't know how I'm gonna celebrate my birthday this year. Part of me wishes I would throw this monumental party, while the other part just wants to act like a kid for one more day, to be spoiled by my parents, to feel safe and protected.

We'll see which part wins...

Kisses,

Mamalina

Preppy

Hello guys,

Lately, it seems that weekends come and go so quickly, and I'm so frustrated by this. I long for the summer days, where there is still light outside when I come home from work.

Usually, during weekends I'm sort of paralyzed;  I don't feel like doing anything, I just wanna stay in my bed and watch TV shows. Oddly enough, I've come to realize that maybe this lack of activity is what makes me feel like time is running fast on weekend days.

So I decided that from now on, I will try my best to do something new and exciting every weekend, something that would take me out of my comfort zone.

Yesterday, I had some friends over for a sushi cooking session. It was a great day, we ate delicious food, we played Activity, we took photos, and everything while outside my window seasons were rapidly changing (raining,  then snowing, then raining again :P)


What do you guys like to do during weekends?

Kisses,

Mamalina

Hitchcock

Another day, a whole other season...Seriously, weather, WTF?!? :)

Today was so warm I didn't even need to carry a jacket to my afternoon walk. Are we done with snow? I sure hope so!

I wish you all a wonderful week!

P.S. On our way home, we saw this huge flock of crows. You know crows, they have this really bad reputation of predicting awful things. I sure hope all superstitions about them are untrue,  cause Mondays are crazy enough as it is. There is no need for a billion crows to predict something bad is going to happen tomorrow :)).

Kisses,

Mamalina
