I have been really busy these past few days and although it felt really good to be doing something a little productive, sometimes adrenaline and emotions just fills you up and to be honest some other days when you least expected it, the low swing catches you just like that and suddenly there is that surge of so many emotions you don't even know exist. You feel happy, you feel tired, you feel sad, anxious,...

So I am slowly getting back on my home workouts and have been experimenting with easy and as much as possible healthy recipes for someone like me who can't cook ;) and since I am taking more time on my workouts, I needed something to fill my body with the right combination of food. And as some of you may known, I have been trying to...

hey guys! I have been hibernating the past few days. Well, I have somehow decided to take multiple breaks from social media and the internet world since I needed a lot of time to rest and relax and calm myself. I know blogging somehow relaxes me but  I needed to have some time to just sit and do nothing but read ;) and yes I got my hands full with some other things too. So...

And although I read books like I would do a buffet, I have my own personal picks when in comes to authors and storyline. So here are my picks for a weekend...

Good morning! Its been 10 months already that I have completely stayed away from meat (yey) but I can't really say that it's an easy ride. Sometimes there are those days that you just want to grab a bucket of KFC and devour those chicken thighs like you are the last caveman. And yes, it takes a lot of determination and self talk to remind yourself that the feeling that comes after giving in is...

"Stay calm, you have a full life to live." Apparently I have to keep reminding myself so often that I never need to be afraid about anything anymore, never need to rush and never need to keep pursuing things that are never meant to be... and that I could never bungee jump even if I only live once and the "you got to live life to the fullest" requirement ;) It appears that here is...
