About Me
Hi I am Shannel. I am a wife, a teacher and a Psychology student about to graduate when I was diagnose with Endometrial cancer stage III. I consider myself very blessed to have caught it early.
I love teaching in
fact I have started to have my little after school so children can learn
English as a second language in their free time. But that was put on hold
since for now I needed to fully recover and start slowly.
I am a wife and a
mommy to a little dog named Kodi. Here I will also write about how my husband
and I keep our marriage going in spite challenges of being not able to have
children due to my diagnosis, what I do and how I spend my time not being able
to become a mom and how I am taking in that reality that we are not going to be
parents.
And most of all the
reason I blog is because of my love with life and my million interest that I am
trying to pursue every day. I love to experiment with makeup and fashion. So I
write about my adventure with learning how to use makeup and find out what
products work for me as well as "trying" on different shades and
fashion that fits my lifestyle and my body type which I consider very unique
the fact that I am petite and a plus. Lately I have also been spending my time
learning to crochet and doing other stuffs in my spare time. And being a book
lover, I will also get to share some of my favorite books and my thoughts about
it.
Here, I also take
every “BeauGorgeous” on a “thrifting” challenge… Like Coco Channel said, “A
girl should only be two things: Classy and Fabulous” and I say… It doesn’t have
to “hole” your purse girl… I also write about what inspires me specially
life in this wonderful land of smiles, Thailand. I am a self-confessed coffee-head, street
food lover, book enthusiast,
fashion and makeup “thrifter”,
vintage lover and a blog junkie.
I have also written about my cancer journey. It is where my life took a life changing turn. I obviously didn't have any idea that after a few years of blogging about my life in general and what interest me the most, I will end up at the moment writing about my life thriving through a diagnosis which promise nothing but uncertainty. My blog became something that connects me to my own understanding of what I go through every day and it became the echo of my sudden realization of what I am capable of., Of life changing decisions that I thought would be impossible. Now, I am moving on. And this is where I share my every day journey with living simple, keeping an active and healthy lifestyle and keeping my head afloat.
What happens every day...
"little" thoughts about it, inspirations and life in a great way get
posted here. Welcome to my live.
