♥ Amazing piece by Jen Tobin On Being a Good Partner. I especially like this part:
"Here’s the thing: If you have a list of things you’d change about them, they aren’t for you. Let them find someone who will love them for those things. Don’t they deserve that? I think I finally grew up the moment I came to that realization. I had been with someone for three years and struggled with “how they were.” We were constantly fighting and I never felt adored or emotionally safe. I was always trying to get him to be how I thought he should be."
♥ Ever wanted to know what others think and how they feel? Here is an infographic about emotions revealed for you. Very nice illustrations.
♥ Yum yum yum, Dessert Darling treats us with such amazing recipes and food inspirations (Red Velvet cupcakes and homemade instant pancake mix? I say yes!)
♥ Maybe slightly irritating, but I can´t stop lauging. I need to get some old phones now.
♥ Get your mind blown. Bobby Pin 101 will show you how it´s actually done.
♥ This is one tattoo that I actually could somewhat consider to have. So pretty.
♥ An easy tutorial for messy chunky beach waves by Wonder Forest. Always handy.
♥ So bacon doesn´t make you fat? Hoooraaay!
♥ Why is it, that we suddenly have a "working parent vs. childless" debatte, when we all deserve a healthy work-life-balance?
"If childless employees and working parents continue to make this debate a competition to see who has it worth, none of us ever going to win. We all have difficulties to face in the office and challenges that pop up in our career path. Working mothers get more flexibility, but they often face judgment and stereotypes about their dedication to their job. Childless employees are seen as more career-focused and dependable, but they aren’t always afforded the same workplace perks that parents are."
♥ Cats as fonts are hilarious! Times New Roman is best!
♥ Si Dawson wrote such a good article on releasing the crap and letting the awesome you shine.
♥ I wish it were December, so I would have my birthday coming up so I could wish for these whimsical cute and gorgeous hidden animal teacups. I couldn´t decide which one…
♥ And last but not least my current K-Pop song obsession. Most of you may know it, but if you are new to the scene, well… it kinda gets stuck in your head.
5 things I am grateful for today:
- Working as a make-up artist and having such a great time defining each of the girls´ looks. It´s just like painting, just on skin. Love it!
- Wearing my bunny ears and the train conductor went totally red when he checked me on my ticket. I had to smile like mad.
- The combination of After-Eights and Peanut Butter is surprisingly yummy!
- Waking up at 7am well rested, because during the week I get up at 5.30am. Sleeping schedules are a wonderful thing as well as morning glory is. :)
- It´s actually still cold enough to wear my favorite poncho. Snuggle!
Have a wonderful & fantastic weekend!
XOXO,
I want to say something to your "on being a good partner"- quote: I think that's not true. Nobody is perfect. And every person you love or like,friends,partners,children,parents have some traits that you don't like and maybe even would like to change.I hardly doubt that there's a person existing who will never ever get on your nerves.The important question is- can you handle those (for you) "bad" traits and does your love and the positive aspects of the person's personality outweigh them?
ReplyDeleteElizabeth Gilbert says in her book "committed": People always fall in love with the most perfect aspects of each other‘s personalities. Who wouldn‘t? Anybody can love the most wonderful parts of another person. But that‘s not the clever trick. The really clever trick is this: Can you accept the flaws? Can you look at your partner‘s faults honestly and say, „I can work around that. I can make something out of that.“? Because the good stuff is always going to be there, and it‘s always going to be pretty and sparkly, but the crap underneath can ruin you.
A Note about that tattoo: that's a white ink tattoo. They're GORGEOUS, but they don't last at all. The white ink doesn't take well to skin. I asked about getting my tattoo done in white, and my tattoo artist told me it wouldn't even be worth the money/time/pain.
ReplyDeleteAh! Bubble Pop is a song one of the girls has learned!
ReplyDeleteWhoaa that bobby pin thing really makes sense but I never did it the right way either!
ReplyDeleteOf course, if there IS a way to work around it and both are willing to work on it, that´s great! But there needs to be progress. If there´s no progress and you circle around the same issues for years, you probably have to face the fact that this isn´t as good as it could be. I don´t think that anyone needs to be perfect and if I talk about flaws, I mean really bad ones like saying nasty stuff or being outright rude. I have given up on the thought that I am THE ONLY AND RIGHT person for somebody or vice versa. Sometimes it is good, but sometimes you have to let go and accept the fact that the time has come to give each other the chance to grow and move on.
ReplyDeleteAs I read about the bobby pins my face just slide out of form, I was just like :O WHAAAAAAATTT? :0 :O :0 Noooooo, my whole life was a lie! :O ;) Hehehehe. And I loved the cats as fonds.
ReplyDeleteOh. My. God. You posted about me! LOL XD Thank youuuu! Yes, its me, Winter. XD
ReplyDelete"Wearing my bunny ears and the train conductor went totally red when he checked me on my ticket. I had to smile like mad." <-- This is totally adorable. lol!
