OCTOBER FAVOURITES...

Hi!

I'm probably going to be away a lot in the next few weeks - important exams coming up! I'll try my best to update often, but for now, let's get on...

Book:

Alfie Deyes 'The Pointless Book' - it's absolutely adorable, the cutest thing ever. For you people who like PointlessBlog on Youtube, then you probably know what I'm talking about - 'cute' and 'adorable' truly are the best words to describe this little an-activity-a-page book.

Food:

Cookies and Cream Kit Kat - Omnomnomnomnom...mmm.
And also dried mango, from Costco. When I eat dried fruit, it makes me feel healthy, and then I realise how much sugar they put in it, and then I get sad and eat more.

The story of my life :(

Person:

The person who designed candles - I love candles so much now! It all started with a Babybel, and now I'm lighting candles all over the place! Anyways...whoever started the designing and making of candles, thank you.



Song:

There are three:

Chandelier by Sia
IDGAF by Breathe Carolina - the music part (I have absolutely no musical knowledge on songs and parts of songs) is amazing!
Bad Girls Club by Falling in Reverse - I bit of a strange favourite, but I like it surprisingly ;)

Method of procrastinating:

Staring at candles - no kidding... I usually light a few candles, and then just stare at them to make sure they don't spontaneously set the whole house on fire. I also like watching YouTube videos, reading, and dancing to music :)


I love y'all, goodbye!

BABYBEL CANDLE!

Hi everyone!

I made a Babybel candle! I didn't even know if it was going to work or not, but I knew that the red outer layer of Babybel cheese is just wax, so I wanted to experiment. I actually made the candle yesterday, but I didn't have time to light it and it was too windy outside (I didn't want to blow up my house!) so I did it today. It failed at first, most likely due to the very tiny amount of wick I had left out to light, but after the wax melted a bit, it worked - my experiment was a success!

This is how small it is - so cute!


One of the many failed attempts before it died... Also, failed focus :(

Hallelujah! The wax melted - thank god I lit the candle outside!



Some art :)
They're all the matches I used (I know, old-fashioned all the way, right?!)

And finally, the result!


Random, but it was fun for me, so...

I love y'all, goodbye!
