These autumn days...

During this September I was busy with school almost all the time. Still I was lucky enough to savour a few free days (mainly it were the weekend) so I was able to go to the forest for a long walk with my sister, visit the cinema or try out some nice new places (BIG THANKS to my sister <3) and enjoy some really good dishes.

Other than that I started some cam whore action while going for a walk or driving in the car with my sister and our mum.

My sister thinks that I would always look like a doll in pictures. Oh, if you are wondering... I am currently trying to grow out my brows to tweeze them in a clean shape again

Maybe this one looks a little bit more like me... (^.^) Xiaxue wrote a new post on picture editing apps some time ago. Seems like my craziness on taking and editing pictures re - started due to reading her post.

Since reading her and also Yutaki' s blog I am trying to take better pictures, doing better editing work. It turned out that it is quite difficult to find enought time for improving my skills in these spheres lately.

Even though I did not do to much (in exception for studying for school) this month I am more than happy. Two weeks ago I finally bought myself a snood (which you can guess I am totally in love with) and one sweet pair of earings with a little ballerina pendant that is attached to a rose (both from Gina Tricot).

The most exciting September nigth was the night of the lightmessages for peace. I feel like the creator did a great piece of work. In addition to the amazing paintings of Hokusai (if I am not wronged) they played some Asian (I guess Japanese) music and also the anathem of the European Union (9th symphony by Beethoven). Hokusai' s selected works are exhibited in the Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin until October, 10th 2011. My autumn holidays will start on Monday and I' ll try to visit this exhibition. xoxo, J.A.

Go Asia

I went to the go asia "fair" with my sister today and it was nothing I have expected, frankly I was disappointed by it.

Apart from that I spend a nice afternoon with my sister. We had a little lunch before we went for the fair. This is what I managed to snap a picture of before I ate it. ^^ My sister and I both of us ordered backed Wantan and a Summer roll. *yummy*

Later in the afternoon I persuaded my sister to go to the Vietnamese Tea House where we drank some super delicious tea.

Well, actually they have my favourite teas. <3 As for now I am looking forward to Saturday to attend the Chinese Moon Festival (ya I know that it was on Monday but I did not have the time to go there) in the Gardens of the World.. It is said that they will do a small lampion parade. "\(^.^)/" I hope to take some nice pictures so that I can post them on my blog. I hope that all of you had a nice day!! xoxo J.A.

It's stormy outside..

It's been raining outside for over an hour now....the thunder won't stop as well. However, I do not mind as long as I can be in a save place. I love sitting by the window and watching this nature phenomenon. Moreover, the atmosphere is great for having some good on anything that matters to you at this moment of your life.
How about you? Do you like stormy weather?

Laugh Attack! xD

Here comes your daily portion of laughter! :D))) Did you ever wonder how to pronounce Jake Gyllenhaal? Here is the answer! xD To me this actually sounds as if Gollum is trying to pronouce Mr. Gyllenhaals name. ^^ . . . Maybe you can tell me what a "the-tho-theth" is? However, you have to take this challenge!! When I challenged my sister and my brother I end up to be the looser. (-.-') If you are brave enough to take this challenge let me know how far you could hold back you laughter. :) When I watched this video my sister told me tha t thi could also have been my (evil - ) laughter. xD So that's it for now. I really hope you've had some good laughter. Have a nice day, J.A.

Schwarzkopf DIADEM Silky Pastels ( SEIDEN - COLOR - CREME)

I do no longer recomend this product!! E.g. it contains harsh ingredients. If you want to know more about this feel free to read this post.


Those of you who read my tweets do already know that I dyed my hair a while ago. This time the color I chose was by Schwarzkopf from their DIADEM line and I am in number 721, which is a ginger color with a little bit of brown in it or as the German name of the color say "autmn - gold". :)
I'll put some pictures in this post so you can see how it looks when the color washes out as time goes by. But let's first talk about what comes in the package.

Ok, so in the back you can see an applicator bottle with developer lotion, right next to it the instruction with a pair of gloves. In the front are a color cream (721), the little tube with liquid silk proteins and a conditioner.

I think that this hairdye is easy in application, however I have to say that I asked my best friend for help. (I have to say that I am a perfectionist and wanted the hairdye to turn out as if I came out of the salon!! ^^)
Now for the photos:

So this is the result. I was super - duper happy with the way the color turned out even though I thought that it was too light at first but I was proved wrong soon enough.


This one was taken at daytime.
HELLO!! How nice is this hair color? I am totally in la - la - la - LOVE with it!! Right here you can see how the color may change in different lightings (btw the photo was taken in the late evening the same day).



Hair color after 3rd time of being washed. You can see how the color gets gradually wahed out. Which I think is good if you want to grow out your hair and might decide one day to go back to your natural hair color. ;)




After the 4th time I washed my hair since I dyed it. You can still see the ginger color in it. ^^
Yesterday I washed my hair for the 6th time. Over the time the hair dye faded into a honey - blonde color. Anyhow the color is not washed out copletely yet. :)


So far I am pleased with this product. It gave me a natural looking hair color which complimented my fair skin and emphasised my blue eyes. Though the packaging claims to be a everlasting hair dye I noticed that it gets washed out more and more with every time I wash my hair.
I know I'll re - dye my hair this color again in some time(I did buy a new packing already). In my opinion this color is worth trying it even though it does not seem to be as long - lasting as it claims to be, yet you have to keep in mind that the result looks quite natural (since it changes with the lightings), your hair feels silky and looks shiny (only) right after dying it.


If you have any further questions about this product please feel fre to ask. Btw, this is not a sponsored review, nor I get paid for writing about it.

Much love,

J.A.
