season finale!

well, well,
as unrealistic and shamefull it is to me to admit that:
it felt a bit sad to watch the last episode of gossip girl.
gosh, i think a tear just rolled down my face, but it's just a tv show.
['best tv show ever' according to new york magazine, uh-huh!]

well, for those of you who haven't seen it - enjoy every minute of it!
and for those of you who have, and already miss it,
enjoy this rolling stone photoshoot of the cast [ed westwick in bed, hello!]

ps. if you don't know me, please don't read into this too much, i'm actually not 13, not blond, not shallow, and tend to think my iq is at the very least above 125 points.. [pshh yeah, i didn't say i wasn't arrogant]

wwmw?

aah,
what would it be to start anew your blog
whithout a little thread news :}
and just when i figured out boho chic is the only way to go this summer
our beloved h&m gets back in collabo with matthew williamson! (yay!)
just the right brand, just the right designer, just the right season.
(and let's face it - at all the right prices;) )
i'll be in thessaloniki in 2 weeks when it's set to launch there as well, so i'll see what i can get my hands on.

props and linkage [TrendDoll]

scrapblogging, i love it!

look, look, look,
what i've been working on this weekend :D

svine flu

so apparently we are all ready for the svine flu epidemic, with shots and medicine and everything, but i sure as hell wasn't ready for people using that as a marketing strategy, and least of all, i was ready for these:

bacon vodka...gag
aand
also available: bacon lipgloss...

suave without swine? really?

bad weather.

The only good things about being home sick are
having time to cut out mags,
eating flaming hot oodles and noodles,
ice cream treats for (whining, miserable) sick kids (to stop them from whining),
and having time to post this on your blog.

konichiwa, bitches!

well well welcome to my first day of posting,
after 8months of dry bushes rolling through my deserted blogscape
like in those classic cowboy movies, it's time to catch up.
and catching up means loads and loads of goodies all at once
in yer face!

xoxo

decision day

so... should i get back to it?
i just cashed a new check of freetime, and going on with this has given me quite some sleepless nights. it's hard, you know, when you have abandoned something(or someone, actually) for such a long time and then you try to get back on track, but jumping on a constantly moving train(understand that as a metaphore for both the blog and old acquiantance) is just not that easy..
is it worth the effort, really? you tell me.

i so swear i'm going to get back to this
as soon as i quit my job and gather more free time!
i do!

ps. my job actually rocks.. :(

it's always the time vs. money question, right? growing up just seems to mean being able to choose. and being happy just means finding the balance.. true? so it seems..
and however much i'd loove to discuss this topic (since it's really been on my mind recently, explaining why i'm quitting the job) for now - i have no time.

mcs - autographs and apologies
so much for the promises...

starbucks experience in greece aka why i haven't been posting lately

ready for summmer sales mmm

oh, the suspense was tiring
and today i was too tired to indulge, but first thing after work tomorrow :
my two favourite brands [in sofia, because my other, more favourites, aren't carried here] have huge sales already and heck yes there's still so much good stuff left!
uh oh, so um yeah - i suggest you do some sales hunting on your favourite brands as well, better sooner than later;)

and just a wee might-i-add: i haven't given up on my consumption restraining resolution, IN FACT, i'm planning to entirely rely on a new chic city bike from now on (expect a separate article on this soon)
and ahem sports clothing (such as biking gloves and backpack and special material garments) are a must if i want to save the planet without sacrificing my own comfort. riight?:) and the amngo clothes...well global warming kid of drives you to shorter shorts and lighter tops... yes.

new sounds in a nutshell

ok, at least i can give you an update on some new tunes i've been walking to work and back home with :

total favourite - Trouble Andrew, from Absinthe(snowboard) films to what he calls 'Crunk Rock, kinda 80's influenced synth skate rock or something' - yummy!
http://www.myspace.com/troubleandrew

another fun rock electronica slash thrash band i like to put on right before work for that extra morning kick - 3OH!3
http://www.myspace.com/3oh3

and in no way am i going to miss out on the awesome! feedback to The Subways' new album 'All or Nothing' :
http://www.myspace.com/thesubways

and a little ps. (i only have 5 tracks, but new album's coming up!) - Uh Huh Her
http://uhhuhher.com (cause i like it better than their myspace)

ahemmm

'the creative, uninspired' post should be an excuse enough

to stop anyone from being mad at my neglecting my blog for so long, right?

ahh, thought so :)

and well, i should be preparing for work and off to sleep by now,

but i just cant let anyone down anymore, and even if no one's actually reading this,

i'd feel like letting my own discipline in constant web browsing and cool-new-things-finding instinct down.

the thing is, though, that this blog was supposed to be exactly about that - how i fill my(and your) free time by discovering new sweets, sales, and sensations in sofia. but since i don't have much time to get around, there's practically nothing to write about :(

work(or training),on the other side, has been a real adventure, but i'm not supposed to write about that.

but keeping it up on a monthly basis, would be enough, i hope.

so there you go now :)

100gr of sweets anyone?

Walking around on a fine day like this, after hours and hours of window shopping (once again), me and maria, headed to onda coffee break, desperate for a cafeine and sugar rush,
when we saw the '100gr of sweets' shop right across the street had turned into a caffe,
aaand that that had happened a loong while ago (like last summer), aaand how could we have forgotten about this little sweet treat?
ahh i wonder
but anyway, for those of you who too have forgotten, or just don't know about it -
perfect place to relax and have a coffee in a neighbourhoodly atmosphere even if you don't live anywhere near there.

100gr of sweets
Angel Kunchev Str nr...(right across Onda?)

holly heat in the city,
i almost died yesterday when i got out of our cold and lovely university and felt the crushing 35C degrees on my skin!
and when it's time to go shopping for tops and sandals, you might feel the need for something instantly refreshing.
Well, the best option (next to locking yourself in the freezer) might be the new Onda Coffee Home-made Lemonade, with crushed mint in it and loads of ice:]



yummy yummy yummy
my total two thumbs up for this delicious life-saver!

four fun things

i simply love love love useless but fun stuff. that basketball popcorn bowl is purely AMAZING!

as cool (aand useless) is the mini usb coke fridge.

some would argue about the remote controlled drink tray for the pool, since its pretty damn functional, DUH. i wish i had a pool...

the door stopper is pretty cool too, also avaliable in banana version;)

haha put that all on my wishlist!

GLAZED DONUTS!

i remember all those countless times sitting at the grand trainstation waiting to catch a train to Munich, on our way back to Bulgaria. see, whenever we went back, my grandpa insisted to come say goodbye, and then we always sneaked away to the donut parlor and he bought me a sugar glazed donut. it was a long ridged french cruller, my grandpa loved them. and so did i.mmmmmm

i don't think i had had one in years, when last week me and my boyfriend accidentally got one of those on our tray, not the french cruller, but a simple sugar glazed donut at dunkin's. oh god was that yummy! ever since i think we've been having one every day. even the chocolate cream glazed ones...

oh, i sound like an addict.

WELL MAYBE I AM! OK?

haha jeez, i'm kidding... ha... ha... i'm out to eh...

haha here's a little ps. on that subject. randy kagan ftw!

the creative, uninspired

okay,

i'm giving up on actually making a schedule for updates.

i am a stereotypical creative type who sucks at returning calls, getting places on time, and updating properly.

minus the, you know, creativity required to be excused for these things.
...yeah, sometimes i don't believe myself either;) haha

so there you go - i'm busy, i'm great, and i'm sorry.

i'll post asap :}

ticket price updates *important*

after the great shock of seeing ironman for 8 whole bucks last weekend, i was pretty roughed up. i remember being 13 and going to the movies for 3lv.! we could buy popcorn and huge cokes and gummibears and it was still within our day's allowance. yadda yadda, times change, tickets got 5,6,7 bucks, but we got older and had more allowance and we could afford going to the theater every second weekend and even eat out before that and have a fix mix fresh squeezed juice for the viewing. but 8 bucks?? come on! seen as you can't even get popcorn for under 2 bucks anymore, that's almost 10, and that's how much you pay for a good meal out or even two whole mojitos at cappuccino.
so i looked into it and i found the trick to get around to ... drumrolls please ... the old price of tickets. yes, that's right, you just have to choose the right day! :)
