2013: 13 life lessons and 13 favourite products.

I know I haven't posted anything since September, I'm sorry about that. I would say life got in the way, but that's just an excuse. As it's the end of 2013 I thought I would do a post as a sort of conclusion to my year, and hopefully push me to be more active in the new year.

13 life lessons of 2013:

1. Snow is a lot of fun, until you have to be somewhere on time.

2. Missing a flight because of snow isn't so bad when you get an extra day with your loved one.

3. Working out and eating healthier works out best when you learn to love yourself first.

4. Don't speak before you think and don't act before you calm down. It will never end well, and you will always regret what you said or did.

5. You might dislike where you grew up, but when you leave you will still kind of miss it.

6. Moving to a new country on your own isn't as scary as it seems.

7. But you will miss your family more than you might actually think.

8. You will also miss your cat, just as much as you expect.

9. You will meet new people, some of whom will become very dear to you, some of whom will greatly disappoint you.

10. Being reunited with your best friend and loved one is well worth the wait.

11. Spending time with your brother and his fiance is always quality time.

12. Trust those who know you best.

13. Be kind to everyone, but don't let anyone stamp all over you.

The 50 Facts About Me Tag!

Since I haven't had much to blog about lately, I decided to do a quick and easy tag post! I've noticed that Lottieees has recently done one, and so I decided to tag myself! And I tag all of you!

1) I LOVE cats!

2) I've had my cat since I was 4 years old and I grew up with her, so she's pretty much like my sister now! And we're both a little insane...

"You did WHAT to my catnip!?"

3) I have an incredible boyfriend who is the kindest and most inspiring person I have ever met! He's truly an angel with a heart of gold!

Happy times! <3

4) My birthday is on the 21st of October.

5) My real name is Katarzyna, but everyone calls me Kate or Kasha.

6) I have a phobia of dreamcatchers! 

7) My favourite book is The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath.

8) My favourite movies are Amelie and Sweeney Todd.

9) I have a very mixed taste in music, I generally like anything rock-y in any way, so that includes metal, rock'n'roll, punk, indie or any other similar genre. I also really like trip hop and chill music, as well as 80s music.

Updates on Kasha Zee!

I haven't been posting as often as I tend to, as I've got exams coming up in less than a week and I've just been pretty occupied with life! Yesterday I was actually seeing my friend who I haven't seen for a year or so as he studies abroad, but came back to visit this summer! Yay! Whilst being out with him, I got these a-d-o-r-a-b-l-e cat-shaped cookie cutters! I have a feeling everything I eat from now on will be cat shaped! It was a pretty long day, so I was pretty relieved when I got back home and had some cuddle-up time with my cat!

I also decided to film a make-up tutorial as I haven't posted anything on my YouTube channel since the introduction video, and I thought it's about time I did! So, whilst getting ready to go out, I set up a camera and everything, had it recording and was quite pleased with how well my make-up turned out! And then I flipped the camera over and it turned out the memory card ran out after like... 2 minutes? So I was left with a face full of perfect make-up and a 2 minute clip of a part of my make-up tutorial. I was really really annoyed! Ugh! But I shall try again after my exams are over, so be patient and stay tuned! I also couldn't decide whether I wanted scrambled eggs or pancakes for breakfast so I made both! Nothing wrong with a bit of variety in life, is there? Or maybe I just had too much free time on my hands. Well, either way, it was yummy! I scrambled one egg with some bell pepper and tomato pieces, and had that with some avocado and hummus, and enjoyed some banana and egg pancakes drizzled with honey and topped with low fat yoghurt and strawberries! Yum! What did you have for breakfast today? :)
