Sweet 19.

Baby dogfish. 
I loooove zebra finches!
Like a BOSS.
Little diva...

Aren't they just BEAUTIFUL? I stood in front of that tank for like an hour. They fascinate me. - BTW those are [very small] blacktip & whitetip reef sharks.
Now - THAT'S my homeboy! Look at those teeth! 
Aren't those just gorgeous? They spend 1/3 of their lives sleeping & sunbathing. 
Yupp... I know what I was in my past life: A gundi!
I was about to steal this little guy. :-) 


Alo ladies & gents!

For those who don't know: I turned 19 last Tuesday, August 23rd.

I had a great day. My mom, Charlotte, my dad & me drove to Düsseldorf to visit the "Aquazoo Löbbecke Museum". It was AWESOME, since they have one of my fav animals there: Sharks. Unfortunately the "big" ones weren't much bigger than 70 cm... However, I saw sharks :-) And - of course - other fishes & animals. I've always loved all kind of 'water animals' & back in the day I even wanted to be a marine biologist & learned how to scuba-dive. 

However, after that we went shopping & I got the pleasure to go to a MAC store. YAY! - You don't want to know how much money I spent though. o.O 

Last but not least we met up with Marion & had dinner in a southern kitchen restaurant called 'Louisiana' - their food is THE bomb! Y'all definitely have to check it out - I believe it's some sort of retail chain. 

I thought I'd share some flicks with you & dearly hope you guys liked them. Unfortunately 'just' from the aquazoo.

Much looove to the people [yeah - I'm on my Alicia Keys right now]

Yours, Lea.

P.S. OMG - Unless you live under a rock you should know that my lovely Queen Bee is pregnant with a lil baby Jayoncé. I am SO EXCITED! I really feel like I'm pregnant myself - THAT IS how excited I am. LMAO! I can't wait for this lovely bundle of joy. :-)

Some O.O.T.D.s & news.

Alo dolls!
[PLEASE NOTE: I wrote & edited this post about two weeks ago but couldn’t upload it because our internet broke down. As you may know my 19th birthday was last Tuesday… I’m not mentioning it because this post was created long before the 23rd . My birthday post will be up next since I’m planning to post more frequently. Thx]
I know it’s been a while... AGAIN! I’m sorry. No I’m actually not... People keep stressing me about this blog & my posts even though they seem to forget that this is a hobby. I wanted to post but didn’t feel like it at the same time.. I don’t know. The last weeks have been a little rough. [You know those days you just want to stay inside & curl up in your bed?] However, I’m feeling much better now. Besides that I decided on courses [& unis] I want to apply for & this is what I’m working on at the moment. Let’s see how it works out... still, I’m SUPER EXCITED! I’ll start next summer or winter which gives me a lot of time to travel, work & chill. : )  [Even though I can’t wait to finally start with uni!]
Furthermore I finally got  a TUMBLR! Haha! And guess what? I’m super addicted... Here’s the link: http://muchadoboutld.tumblr.com/ It’s way easier to post on there on a daily basis since there’s an app for my iPhone  [NO – I AM NOT always at home & near my Macbook -_- … Actually I ain’t most of the times but whatever] & Blogspot doesn’t have anything like that [haven’t they?] Anyways: Subscribe & check it out! : )
Last but not least I thought I’d share some O.O.T.D.s I lumped together the last week.
Enjoy!
I’ll try to be on here more often – EVEN THOUGH this is NOT my freaking job...
Yours, Lea.

Collective Haul ladies & gents!


Alo dolls!

I'm sorry, I know I've been M.I.A. for a while now... I've been super busy since my mom is at my aunt's. Besides that I'm still trying to figure out what to study... The list of programmes I'm interested in only seems to get longer & longer. Anyways, me and my dad started doing a "Study Matrix" with Pros & Cons of each subject & future job. Let's see how this works out.

I've been thinking about a post & thought I'd just do a "collective-haul-sort-of-thing". NO - I didn't buy all that stuff at once... I've been picking up the following goodies for a couple of months or so. : ) 

I really wanna do outfit posts but it's hard to find someone willing to take pictures of my outfit each day. It's way easier for me to take a picture of my F.O.T.D. or other stuff. However, I hope that will change once my mom gets back. Haha! 

I'll stop rambling now... Enjoy!

Yours truly, Lea
