Paris! day 5 and 6 ♡

Opéra Garnier 

SORRY SORRY SORRY I forgot to write yesterday!!!!
But Paris has been great and I'm loving it so much!

Day 5
Yesterday I went to the "Galerie Lafayette" and o m g it's huge!!! There's so many shops there and the ceiling is so beautiful! I swear I spent like 5 minutes staring at it. And when we were going back home we went to see L'Arc de Triomphe in Champs-Élysées and also the Tower Eiffel with the Belgium flag colours in it as a tribute to Brussels because of the terrorist attacks. I'm sending love to everyone in Belgium and to everyone who has family and loved ones there.

Day 6

Today was awesome!!

We went to the Louvre (although we didn't enter the museum but we will tomorrow!) and visited the Opéra Garnier!

The Opéra is such a beautiful place! I got out amazed by it.

Sorry for the loooong post but I took so many lovely photos, it was hard to only post these haha
Anyway, I'll TRY not to forget to post here tomorrow, as it will be my last day visiting Paris because on friday I'm going back to Portugal, and I must say, although I'm loving this, I already miss home and everyone :)
Hope you're having a good time!

With love,

Paris! day 4 ♡

Hey there ♡

Okay, I finally did something today! I went to the center of Paris, visited the Tower Eiffel (and took some lovely photos) and also went to see the Notre Dame Cathedral and I think that it's such a beautiful place! It has a big garden in the back where people can walk and sit and it's really peaceful!

I even got to see the Eiffel Tower with all the pretty lights on!

I took many more photos but I can't post everything as it would make the post reaaaally long haha (but check my instagram if you want to see some more).

Now I'm home and I'm so excited about going to the center of Paris again and get the chance to visit some more places!

I'll write you again tomorrow :)

With love,

Mari xx

Paris! day 2 and 3 ♡

Goodnight peaches ♡

Like I said on yesterday's post, I'll let you know everything about the bowling place I went to yesterday on this post!

It's a really nice house and they have so many bowling lanes!! They have two floors with 16 lanes each but they also have billards and stuff like that (their website is http://www.beach-bowling.fr/ so if you want to know more details, such as the location, just check it out)

I must say I'm TERRIBLE at bolwing and you can see that in my punctuation on the last photo haha but overall it was a nice time spent with my dad and his family!

Oh! Do you want to year a story about yesterday? I left my bag at the bowling house. Yep, and I only noticed when I got home! Inside of it were my documents and some money so you can imagine the panic that filled me because without my documents I can't fly back to Portugal! But we called the house and I was so happy to hear that they had kept it! We went there again and it had everything, even the money!! Lesson here: don't leave your bag alone and forget about it EVER again lol

About today... I did nothing, like nothing really, which pissed me off a little too much. We had lunch at a friend of my dad's house and we stayed there the WHOLE afternoon! I didn't know anyone there and I didn't know about who they were talking about and I didn't get their references because I didn't know them nor nothing about their lives so yea... I really hope tomorrow I can finally go to the center of Paris and visit the city!!
I'll write again tomorrow! :)

With love,
Mari xx

Paris! day 1 and 2 ♡

HELLOooooooOo ♡

Yesterday was my first time ever flying alone! 

selfies in airport bathrooms are v important lol

Sorry for not posting anything yesterday, but I arrived at around 8PM (Portugal time) and I was really tired so I just stayed at my dad's place playing cards haha

Today has been great so far!

I didn't do much but I walked a bit around where I'm staying here in Paris and this is a really beautiful and calm place.

In the afternoon I went shopping and now I'm going to a bowling place! I don't know the name but I've seen some pictures of that place and it's enormous! I'll let you know everything about it tomorrow :)

Me today :)

Some of the places I walked by today!

I know this post is kinda meh but I'll post something better tomorrow! I still don't know what I'll be doing but I'll let you know tomorrow :)

'Get To Know Me' tag ♡

Hello!
It's me Mari and today I thought I would do a 'Get To Know Me' tag, which are basically 21 questions and I'll answer them for you so you can get to know me a bit better! :)
Here it goes...

1. Are you named after anyone?

Um no, actually I don't think I am, my mom just loves the name Mariana haha.

2. When was the last time you cried?

It was last week I think, it's really easy for me to cry, even though I try not to, the harder I try the harder I'll cry haha.

3. Do you have kids?

No.

4. If you were another person, would you be a friend of yourself?

I think so, I mean I think I'd like to hang out with myself haha 

5. Do you use sarcasm a lot?

I use sarcasm so much that sometimes I don't even know anymore if I'm being sarcastic or not.

6. Will you ever bungee-jump?

It's something I REALLY want to do! I already did something like that but it wasn't that high and I want to do it but from a higher place now. :)

7. What’s your favorite cereal?

This is a tough one... I love cereal so much omg. But I'll have to go with triple chocolate muesli! It's like heaven in my mouth ahhh!!!!

8. What’s the first thing you notice about people?

Eyes, lips and hands. But mostly lips and hands, And if they have sense of humour, it's not the first thing I notice but it's the thing I try harder to know :)

9. What is your eye colour? 

They're green-ish. Like, they're a bit brown in the middle and green on the outside. I find them cute haha 

(here's a picture)

10. Scary movie or happy endings?

I don't know really. I like scary movies when I'm not alone. And I also like happy endings, but it depends on my mood, like I prefer movies that aren't that scary but that don't have happy endings, I don't know if you're getting what I'm saying lmao

11. Favorite smells?

THE SMELL AFTER RAIN MAKES ME SO HAPPY

And the mint smell!

12. Summer or winter?

People find me kinda weird for this, but I prefer winter all the way! At least I can wear all black without burning inside haha

13. Computer or television?

Computer! I don't think I even watch TV, all I do is watch movies and series online.

14. What’s the furthest you’ve ever been from home?

It was when I went to Brazil, I was on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean.

15. Do you have any special talents?

Besides being an awesome fangirl? Not really haha

Just kidding, well I used to play the cello and I used to dance ballet (I don't do any of those now though *cries*) but I surf, it isn't really a talent because I'm still learning but yea.

16. Where were you born?

Portugal!

17. What are your hobbies?

Fangirling, finding out new bands, listening to them, reading, online shopping (compulsively oops), watching youtube videos and 9gag. Wow my life sounds so fun

18. Do you have any pets?

I do!! I have 3 cats (I LOVE cats) and 3 dogs. :)

19. Favorite movie?

Hard oneeee! I love every THG movie, I loved 'The Host', 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower', etc.

20. Do you have any siblings?

Nope! Just me.

21. What do you want to be when you grow up?

I've already said this on my last post but I want to do something related to forensics and criminal investigation! :)

SO, this was it! Hope you liked it and that you know me better now!

I tag everyone who wants to do this ☺

With love,

Mari xx

A little introduction ☼

Hello!
This is my first post here and if you haven't noticed by the title yet, this will be a small introduction of myself and this blog.
I've never had a blog before so I don't really know how this works haha but I'll find out as the time goes by.
Okay so, I'm Mariana (but you can call me Mari), I'm a portuguese 15 year old girl and I decided to create this blog to let people know me a bit better (if someone will even read this lol).
I find it quite hard to say a lot of the things I want to say when I'm with people and when they're looking at me because I feel really pressured to say the right thing and most of the times I end up not speaking, so I'm using this as a way to express myself without feeling that kind of pressure, and maybe (who knows?) this will help me with talking and giving my opinions in front of other people! ☺
I'm a cat and plant lover and an art enthusiast, even though I'm not studying Arts, I'm actually studying Sciences and Technologies! I'm still not very sure about this yet but I find forensics really interesting and I've been wanting to do something related to that in the future for a while now.
And now you ask: 'Okay, but what can I expect from this blog??'
Well, like I already said, I'm gonna use this as a way to express myself and give opinions but of course that is not all! I'm also thinking of talking to you about random things and about my day and things I did, I want to talk about clothes, shoes, beauty and all that stuff too and I also want to share my music taste with you. I can do Q&A's if you want, some tags, etc.
BUT, the point of this blog is to spread positivity, because it can have a huge impact on your life, a good one (it already made mine so much better!) so I'm hoping I can help some of you, so please feel free to e-mail me ANYTIME and I'll answer as soon as possible!! (marithelilfairy@gmail.com)
This was my first post ever so I'm sorry for being boring lelz but the next ones will be better. ;)

With love,
Mari xx
