BYE BYE 2015 ...... HELLO 2016

JUST A QUICK POST TO MARK THE END OF 2015 IT WASN'T A BAD ONE FOR ME BECAUSE I GOT A NEW JOB AND A CAR .LOL

PLUS MY GP SAID THAT I AM IN GOOD HEALTH SO NOTHING TO COMPLAIN APART FOR MY NEW ROUTINE AND THE TIME SPEND IN PUBLIC TRANSPORT.
 I WILL CHANGE THAT WHEN I WILL MOVE CLOSER TO MY NEW JOB.

I WISH YOU ALL  A HAPPY NEW YEAR FILLED WITH PROSPERITY, HEALTH AND LOTS LOTS OF LOVE ALL AROUND YOU.

AND BY THE WAY FOR THOSE WHO CELEBRATED CHRISTMAS I HOPE IT WAS A VERY GOOD TIME FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES.

I  THANK ALL OF YOU TO VISIT ME REGULARLY  BECAUSE IT IS A BLESSING AND I AM AWARE OF IT.

MAY GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU !

SO SO TIRED BUT I AM STILL THERE.....LOL

I just trimmed/cut  my hair again !

YES I AM ALIVE !  LOL BUT WITH MY NEW JOB I AM SO BUSY AND REALLY TIRED. 

PLUS I DO NOT HAVE THE SAME AMOUNT OF SCHOOL HOLIDAYS THAT I USED TO HAVE.

 

A MISTAKE THAT I MADE WHEN I THOUGH THAT BECAUSE IT WAS A COLLEGE I WILL HAVE ALL THE SORT BREAKS. NAH ! LOL. 

SO MY BODY HAS TO ADAPT TO THIS NEW ROUTINE.

IN MY FORMER JOB I WAS WORKING WITH SEVERAL STUDENTS BUT NOW I AM ONLY FOCUS ON ONE STUDENT BUT BELIEVE ME IT IS TAKING ALL MY ENERGY.

 

IT'S  QUITE DIFFERENT OF WHAT I USED TO DO EVEN IF WHAT I DID BEFORE HELP ME TO DEAL WITH THE DAY TO DAY CHALLENGES.

 

I ALSO DON'T HAVE TO WORRY NO MORE IN TERM OF CLOTHES BECAUSE I HAVE TO WEAR CASUAL ALL THE TIME BECAUSE I AM MOSTLY OUTSIDE TRAVELLING WITH PUBLIC TRANSPORTS (LONDON BUSES AND TRAINS).

BEFORE I ONLY SPENT 20 MIN ( NOW IT IS 90 MIN !) TO GO TO WORK WITH ONE BUS NOW I AM TAKING THE TUBE PLUS 2 BUSES. SO AT THE END OF MY JOURNEY I AM REALLY TIRED.

AND I AM NOT FORGETTING THAT I USED TO FINISH AT 3 PM NOW IT IS 5 PM SOMETIMES I AM DOING OVERTIME JUST TO TAKING CARE OF ONE STUDENT.

FOR SOME OF YOU WHO CAN YOURSELF ASK IF I WAS STILL INTEREST IN BLOGGING, I AM, IT IS JUST THAT I HAD TO ADAPT TO THIS NEW JOB ROUTINE.

 

BUT THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS ARE COMING SO I HOPE TO  HAVE MORE ENERGY TO POST A LITTLE MORE. THANK YOU  FOR  YOUR UNDERSTANDING.

STILL LOVE MAKE UP TUTORIALS. LOL

WHEN YOU CONSIDER WHAT HAPPEN TO ME LAST TIME THAT I DECIDED TO PUT MAKE UP ON ME  YOU WOULD  THINK THAT I HAVE  TO TAKE SOME  PRECAUTIONS. LOL BUT TO BE HONEST I STILL ENJOY MAKE UP TUTORIAL ESPECIALLY THE ONES MADE BY THATIGBOCHICK .

 SHE IS SO GOOD BECAUSE SHE USES COLOURS SO WELL
I WISH I CAN REPLICATE IT. LOL PLUS I LOVE THE FACT THAT SHE IS NOT OVER APPLYING THE CONCEALER BECAUSE SOME OF THIS BEAUTY GURU JUST PUT THE FULL CONTENT ON THEIR FACES.

FOR MAKE UP LOVERS ENJOY AND LEARN IF YOU WANT TO TRY IT. ME I AM JUST WATCHING NOW SO NO ITCHING TROUBLE ANYMORE.LOL

THIS IS THE KIND OF RESULT THAT I WISH TO ACHIEVE ONE DAY JUST FOR THE FUN.

THE ONE THAT I WISH TO TRY BECAUSE I LOOOVE BLUE. 

AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE LOOK.

HOPE YOU WILL FIND SOME INSPIRATION OR JUST ADMIRE HER SKILLS LIKE I DO.

WHY NOT SOME MUSIC ..... ?

JUST A QUICK POST SO I CAN INTRODUCE YOU  TO TWO  FEMALE AFRICAN SINGERS. ONE IS FROM IVORY COAST,

HER NAME IS JOSEY AND A SONG IS CALLED "DIPLOME"

SHE IS TALKING ABOUT HER BOYFRIEND WHO STILL HASN'T MARRY HER DESPITE 10 YEARS OF LIVING TOGETHER  AND A CHILD.

HE KEEPS SAYING TO HER THAT HE WANTS TO STUDY IF SHE WILL BE  A SUITABLE  WIFE. THAT'S WHY SHE ASK HIM WHAT KING OF  DIPLOMA OR DEGREE HE WANTS  TO ACHIEVE BY MAKING HER WAIT FOR SO LONG.

SO SHE HAD ENOUGH AND DECIDE TO LEAVE. BUT NOW HE WANTS HER BACK.LOL THIS THE NEW ANTHEM FOR FRENCH SPEAKING AFRICAN WOMAN.LOL

THE OTHER ONE IS ANOTHER FRENCH AFRICAN FEMALE SINGER TOO BUT SHE IS FROM SENEGAL. SHE ALSO HAS A YOUTUBE CHANNEL ON BEAUTY AND FASHION ETC.....

HER NAME IS " ATHEENA" BUT SHE ALSO USED THE NAME "NOUNETTE" FOR HER YOUTUBE CHANNEL. 

FOR PEOPLE WHO CAN UNDERSTAND FRENCH. 

HER SONG TITLE IS "GOODBYE PARIS". 

IT IS A SWEET BALLAD ABOUT A WOMAN WHO REMEMBER WHEN SHE MET HER  FIRST LOVE IN PARIS.

 BUT SHE HAD TO GO SO SHE IS QUITE SAD. BUT SHE MADE THE PROMISE  TO COME  BACK TO PARIS AGAIN.

THIS ONE IS FROM  HER BEAUTY CHANNEL   FOR THE ONE WHO CAN UNDERSTAND FRENCH.

HOPE YOU WILL GIVE A TRY AND ENJOY IT BECAUSE MUSIC IS AN UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE PLUS YOU HAVE AN IDEA OF WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT.

2 MAJOR PROBLEMS AND A NEW JOB BUT I AM BACK

I KNOW THAT IS BEEN LIKE TWO MONTHS NOW BUT SO MANY THINGS HAPPEN TO ME. ESPECIALLY  WITH MY HEALTH.

my skin the day before

THEN I HAVE TO START MY NEW JOB IN CENTRAL LONDON AND FOR THE FIRST TIME I NEED TO SPEND LIKE 1.15 HOUR TO GET THERE.

PLUS I FINISHED MORE LATER THAN I USED TO WITH MY FORMER JOB. THE CHALLENGES ARE ALSO DIFFERENT SO WHEN I AM BACK I AM REALLY REALLY DRAINED.

I was shocked, sad  and mad lol

I JUST WANT TO TAKE MY SHOWER EAT SOMETHING AND JUST SLEEEEP.
I NEEDED SOME TIME TO ADJUST MYSELF TO THIS NEW CHANGES EVEN IF IT WAS MY DECISION AFTER ALL.

the  spots and rashes

I ALSO HAVE TO DEAL WITH TWO MAJORS HEALTH PROBLEMS. ONE WITH MY FACE AND THE OTHER ONE WITH LEFT ANKLE.

 I had to take this tablets

WHAT HAPPENED  WITH MY FACE ??? 

OK  DON'T JUDGE ME PLEASE !

YOU KNOW DESPITE THE FACT THAT I AM NOT GOOD AT MAKE UP I STILL WATCHED A LOT OF MAKE UP TUTORIALS SO I CAN STILL BORROW SOME IDEAS.
SO I DECIDED TO TRY A CONTOURING / STROBING TECHNICS.

 After wash my face i used Shea butter first

YEAH I THOUGHT  THAT IT WILL BE SOOOOO COOL.
 AND YES ! EVEN AFTER THE DISASTROUS  BANANA MASK CONDITIONER TUTORIALS.

I CLEARLY DID NOT LEARN MY LESSON LOL. ANYWAY I JUST DID WHAT I WANTED TO DO. AND IN TOP OF THAT I BOUGHT A NEW FOUNDATION ( CHEAPER )  WITH A BB CREAM ( CHEAPER TOO ).

 I used this cream first in urgency 

SO I MIXED MY TWO FOUNDATIONS. I DID NOT LIKE THE RESULT BUT INSTEAD OF REMOVING THE MAKE UP QUICKLY I LET IT  JUST TO TAKE SOME PICTURES FOR LIKE ONE HOUR.

I used this when put all the other creams it was exclusively for the rashes

I WASHED MY FACE NORMALLY. THE NEXT DAY I WOKE UP WITH A BIG SENSATION OF ITCHING ON MY FACE AND WHEN I WENT TO THE MIRROR I WAS FULL OF RASHES AND SPOTS. 

I washed my face exclusively with this i still use it today.

YEAH ! IT TOOK ME 2 WEEKS TO HAVE MY FACE SKIN BACK.  I THINK I AM LIKE A LITTLE SCARED TO EVEN PUT SOME LIPSTICK ON. IT IS THAT BAD ! LOL.

THE GOOD THING IS THAT I  STARTED MY NEW JOB WITH A CLEAN FACE.

 I used this cream just after the Shea butter

NOW MY LEFT ANKLE JUST DECIDED TO SWOLLEN 3 WEEKS AGO FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND IT IS QUITE PAINFUL. BUT I HAVE TO GO TO WORK ANY WAY.

the look that created all that mess !

I WAS ALSO SUPPOSED TO START SOME AQUA GYM SESSIONS BUT NOW EVERYTHING IS LIKE  " UNDER THE WATER  " MAY I SAY  THANKS TO MY SWOLLEN ANKLE.LOL
 I SAW MY DOCTOR ON THIS WEEK SO I WILL SEE WHAT 'S HAPPENING.

I KNOW THAT ALL THIS MAY NOT BE VALID EXCUSES FOR SOME PEOPLE  BUT THEY ARE MINE. AND SURE  BUT I AM BACK.LOL

A NICE FOODY INVITATION

BECAUSE MY SISTER IS IN FRANCE FOR FEW DAYS AND I AM ON HOLIDAY ONE OF MY FRIENDS INVITED ME TO EAT AT HER HOME.
AND OF COURSE I HAVE TO COOK A LITTLE BIT MYSELF TO BE SURE THAT WE WILL EAT PROPERLY.

SHE IS NICE BUT TO BE HONEST HER COOKING IS NOT ON POINT SOMETIMES.
I AM QUITE DIFFICULT WHEN IT COMES TO FOOD. YES I LOOOOOVE MY FOOD.LOL

I WAS SUPPOSED TO HELP HER BUT I ENDED UP DOING MOST OF THE THINGS EVEN THE CAKE ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS NOT MY STRONGEST ABILITY.
 IT WAS IN FACT WHERE I STRUGGLED. MMMM....WHAT COULD I DO WITH...... ?

2 APPLES,
1 PEAR,
100 G OF BUTTER
250 G OF SELF RAISING FLOUR
100 G OF SUGAR
3 EGGS
1 TABLE SPOON OF VANILLA EXTRACT
1 TEA SPOON OF BAKING POWDER.
THE FRUITS WERE A LITTLE RIPPED BUT I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT.LOL

I DECIDED TO MELT THE BUTTER IN THE MICROWAVE THEN JUST PUT EVERYTHING IN A BOWL WITH THE  GRATED  FRUITS AND MIXED, MIXED AND MIXED.LOL
AND HOP! IN THE OVEN.

TO MAKE SURE THAT IT DID NOT BURNT, I PUT SOME WRAPPING FOIL ON THE TOP AND AN OVEN PLATE FULL OF WATER BELOW .

I KNOW IT IS STRANGE BUT THE STEAM WILL HELP THE CAKE TO COOK AND BECOME MOIST.

GUESS WHAT ?  IT DID CAME OUT BEAUTIFULLY AND SOOOO TASTY AND  I WAS REALLY PRIDE OF MYSELF.

I ALSO MADE THE POTATOES / MACKEREL  SALAD AND THE CHICKEN TOO.
WELL I MADE THE DINNER LOL.

AS USUAL DESPITE THE FACT THAT I WAS TH E GUEST. SHE ONLY MADE THE GREEN SALAD. WHAT AN EFFORT....! LOL

BUT IT WAS STILL A NICE FOODY INVITATION. BECAUSE WHEN IT IS FREE IT IS YUMMY.LOL

  

CAN YOU SEE IT.... ? CAN YOU SEE IT....?

2 WEEKS AGO I SAW A TUTORIAL USING A HOME MASK MADE WITH BANANA AND I DECIDED TO TRY BECAUSE IT WAS A LONG TIME THAT I PUT A NATURAL DEEP CONDITIONER  ON MY HAIR.

I USED TO MIX PALM OIL. HONEY, YOLK  AND A LITTLE BIT OF CONDITIONER. THIS TIME I TRIED WITH  A MASHED BANANA, 1 TABLE SPOON OF PALM OIL AND 2 TABLE SPOONS OF CONDITIONER.

I APPLIED IT ON MY DRIED HAIR BEFORE THE SHAMPOO. IN THE TUTORIAL YOU MUST WAIT 10 TO 30 MINUTES.

BUT I WAITED 1  HOUR BECAUSE I WAS DOING SOMETHING ELSE. DON'T REALLY REMEMBER WHAT BUT... I DIDN'T REALLY CARE.

AFTER I DID SHAMPOOED AND CONDITIONED MY HAIR. I REALLY LOVED HOW MY HAIR  TEXTURE FELT IT WAS SOFT AND SMELL SOOOOO GOOD. THE BANANA  SCENT WAS STILL FRESH.

THEN  I STARTED TO  DETANGLE MY HAIR AND MY SISTER TOLD ME  ; "IT'S  STRANGE THERE ARE SOME WHITE SPOTS ON YOUR HAIR IS IT NORMAL?"

SO I LOOKED AT MY HAIR IN THE MIRROR AND I COULD SEE A LOT OF "SMALL WHITE PIECES". DAM THE BANANA JUST COOKED BUT DID NOT DISAPPEAR .
WHAT CAN I DO ?

I JUST RUN TO THE SHOWER FOR ANOTHER SHAMPOO. BUT WHEN I CAME BACK MY SISTER NOTICED AGAIN THAT THE BANANA PIECES WERE STILL ON MY HAIR.

SO 3 SHAMPOOS/ CONDITIONERS  AND THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE???????

THEN I DECIDED TO TRY TO USE GHEE ( CLARIFIED BUTTER )ALL OVER MY HAIR BEFORE THE 4 SHAMPOO. I BRUSHED, COMBED THEN STRAIGHT TO THE SHOWER AND THIS TIME IT WORKED.

SO AFTER 4 SHAMPOOS / CONDITIONERS  AND OF COURSE A LITTLE HELP OF GHEE I MANAGED TO REMOVE ALL THE BANANA MASK LEFT OVER. HUM NEXT TIME I WILL BE MORE CAREFUL.

TOO BAD BECAUSE I REALLY LIKED THIS BANANA CONDITIONER.

ANYWAY NOT EVERYTHING NATURAL IS EASY TO MANIPULATE OR I MUST FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PRECISELY.LOL

 BUT  I ALSO THINK I WAIT TOO LONG TO WASH MY HAIR.

PREPARING AND WAITING FOR MY CAR.....

YESTERDAY WAS THE LAST MEAL THAT I SHARE WITH MY WONDERFUL COLLEAGUES.
NOW IT IS TIME TO REST BUT MOSTLY TO PREPARE MY DRIVING TEST. I AM ALSO READY TO BUY A NEW CAR SO IT WILL FORCE ME TO HAVE THAT DAM TEST.LOL

BEFORE I REALLY NEVER WANTED A CAR BECAUSE I HAD A ROAD ACCIDENT WHEN I WAS FIVE YEARS OLD.
 I WAS HIT BY A MOTORCYCLE WHEN CROSSING THE ROAD BUT TO BE HONEST IT WAS MY FAULT THE LIGHT WAS RED BUT I STILL DECIDED TO CROSS ???? .

 
IT LEFT ME VERY SCARED OF THE ROAD. IT TOOK ME LIKE 20 YEARS TO CROSSED A ROAD WITHOUT WAITING TO SEE SOMEONE DOING IT THE SAME TIME.
IT WAS THAT BAD. PLUS BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT, MY LEFT HIP HAD TO BE OPERATED SO I COULD WALKED PROPERLY.

I SPEND 1 MONTH IN A HOSPITAL WITH OTHERS CHILDREN WITH ALL KINDS  OF PHYSICAL DISABILITIES. I DID NOT LIKE THE PLACE BECAUSE THE NURSES WERE AWFUL AND RACISTS BUT IT HELPS ME TO HEAL QUICKLY BY DOING ALL THE EXERCISES SO I COULD WALK AGAIN.
THE DOCTORS WERE IMPRESSED BY ME BECAUSE EVERYBODY THOUGH THAT I WILL END UP WITH A CANE ALL MY LIFE BUT NOT ME.

WHILE I AM WAITING FOR MY MY FUTURE CAR I AM STILL WALKING IN THE PARK SO I DECIDED  ONE DAY TO DO MY HENNA TREATMENT AND NOT SLEEP OVER NIGHT WITH IT BUT JUST LET IT DRY OUTSIDE THE ALL DAY.

 PLUS NOBODY REALLY PAY ATTENTION TO YOU OR YOUR HAIR IN LONDON. YOU ARE FREE TO DRESS AND STYLE AS YOU LIKE.LOL
I LOVE THIS METHOD AND IN FACT IT MORE EFFICIENT THAN SLEEPING OVER IT. AND SURPRISINGLY IT DID COVER MY FEW BUT MORE APPEARING GREY HAIR.

I AM PREPARING AND WAITING FOR MY CAR, THAT'S MY NEW OBSESSION NOW.LOL
