Monthly Recap, Vol. 8
Hello lovelies,
I know, it's second week of June and I'm writing May Monthly Recap. This post was supposed to be up last week, but as I wrote in the last post, I was kinda busy with my new family member and trip to Opava. I had a chance to skip May, but then I realised, that it's been eight months since I started this serie and it would be ashamed if I stopped (still can't believe where the times flies so fast) just because I didn't have time. So here we are, writing / reading May Monthly Recap, hope you enjoy..
May was kinda busy month for me when it comes to work. I worked a lot of afternoon shifts, so you can imagine how tired I was. Then I visited a week training where I learnt how to verify / legalize signatures and copies, print criminal records, bussiness registers and so. Then I had a week to study all the rules and law so I could pass the exam from the Department of the Interior (and yes, I've passed, so now I am authorized to do these all things, yay!)
The happiest moment in May was that I finally got my beloved package from ColourPop. This was my first order and I was so excited to get this. From all these beautiful goodies I love the Ultra Glossy Lip in Aquarius the most! The only thing I was sad about was that the beautiful holographic print on the bottle got scratched after a few days inside my purse. I also created an eye look using only these ColourPop eyeshadows, so if you are interested to see, check it out here.
Also the weather changed from really cold and cloudy days to beautiful sunny spring, so I started to enjoy spending time outside. I love this season for walking around the town, because it's not too hot and not too cold and everything was in bloom. And thanks these walks I always could see so many interesting and new things, like this months it was this very old trolly.
This month I loved to watch PLL, which you probably know (I'm obsessed with them and I am not ashamed to say that I saw this show already twice, haha) and Santa Clarita Diet! I must admit, I've never laughed so hard with any other shows. This Netflix show is amazing and I can't wait to see more. Plus thank to Drew Barrymore I decided that I need her hair color! This golden blond is like a heaven and I think I could use some change, becuase I've been wearing golden copper for such a long time. What do you think?
And the last but not least I did some maintaince on blog. This time I wasn't satisfied with my header color, so I created something more subtle with touch of pinks, yellows and oranges. I think these colors suit my template more then the colorful one before. I do the header on my own, so they are not so professional and beautiful like other bloggers have, but guess what… I like it and I am proud of myself, because I've never worked with photo editors like that before my blog, so everything is pretty new to me and I think my learning and experimenting process is not the worst you can see around the world, haha. But of course, I would love to know what you guys think what was better?

And the cherry on top is - I became something like an aunt for the second time. This time my step sister gave a birth to super small and cute son. I'm very happy for her.
How was your May? Did you do anything exciting?
Have a great Sunday!

It was probably 5 business day until it arrived to the Czech, but customs hold the package more than a week. So I waited pretty long time, but both Colourpop fault.
DeleteThat colourpop package looks amazing!
