New Trend - Geocaching

source
Have you ever wondered how it must have felt for the pirates ;) to find a real treasure? Eager to try it out yourself? Well, I think I've got the perfect game or as some may say new sport for you - Geocaching. My sister told me that geo caching is THE new hobby of some of her friends. And to tell the truth - I can totally understand why it is. Who does not like adventures? The thrilling feeling that rises as you know you get closer and closer to the hidden treasure. Finally, as you find the desired object the omnipresent feeling of being proud of yourself. So what is Geocaching?
GEOCACHING is a real-world outdoor treasure hunting game. Players try to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, using GPS-enabled devices and then share their experiences online.
That's the given definition of this new game as written on the official global website.

If you want to learn more about it I would suggest you to click the link above! :) There you will find a guide to the game as well as some tools for download and a few GPS device reviews. I am very curious about this exciting new game and I know I will tell my friends about it in school tomorrow. Maybe I can persuade them to play it together. Nontheless, I advise you to play this game with an adult supervising you if you are still underaged. Otherwise I would say that it's always for the best if you will search ar daytime and take the challenge with a least one other person. Please make sure to tell somebody where you are abot to go....just in case something might happen!! I have heared that some of the caches are hidden in dangerous places (extreme geocaching?). However, if you will keep these things in mind nothing should happen to you.

Now good luck and happy Geocaching! Yours, J.A.

October Haul

So I persuaded my siblings to come with me into the city yesterday. First of all I wanted to go to LUSH to get their Les Caca's Henna hair dye in Caca Rouge and Caca Marron. I loved it when I dyed my hair a ginger color last time. After I bought the henna hair dye at LUSH I went to The Body Shop to get my birthday present, now that I have found some free time finally. ^^ I chose thei GINGER ANTI - DANDRUFF SHAMPOO because like the it name does already say it contains ginger which I absolutely love. My scalp is not dry or flaky yet I hope that it might stimulate the grow of hair since I am trying to grow it out until next summer. :)) Other than the shampoo I wanted to try out the RAINFOREST RADIANCE CONDITIONER (I went for the small "sample" size and I had to pay 90 cents additionally).
Afterwards we decided to have a little brake since we felt a little bit dizzy in our heads from all those different scents we had earlier experienced. I immediately suggested to go to my favourite bubble tea in Berlin before we would went on to a drugstore.
Being a bubble tea junky I was the only one to order the big size while my siblings took small sized ones. Eventually, we went to a local drugstore where my sister did print some photos and I got some fake lashes for Halloween as weel as something for nail cuticle care and guess what? I did not pay a penny!! Hahaha, yap, I was lucky enough to own a 10€ valued voucher. :) Have a good night or day! Yours, J.A. P.S.: While writing this post I was dyeing my hair with LUSH' s henna and drinking a warm cup of herbal tea. :)) And no, this is not a sponsored post in case you were wondering.

Starry Night Nail Art Design

Hello ladies! Today I have a quick and very easy nail art design for you to try out. :)
All you gonna need is a dark blue and a golden nail laquer. It will come out best if you' ll use a golden laquer with different sized glitter particels. The two colors I used are by essence a brand you can get at some drugstores. The shads are called "make it golden" in number 67 and "hard to resist" in number 76.
Optionally you can choose to use a base and a sealing/ top coat. :) You might have heard about a technique using make up sponges to create thiss nail art, however I think that it is easier and way faster to do it this way. If you still want to try out the other technique you might want to watch bubz' video tutorial on this. No matter what technique you prefer I am sure your nails will draw a lot of attention just as mine did. :)
..even though they were a little bit messy because I were in a rush when doing them. (^.^') Btw, I did an angry birds nail art design last week on my nail. I've got the idea from cutepolish.
xoxo, J.A.
