The Heiress of the Sistrum

I think you'd like this story: "The Heir of the Sistrum" by cleo102 on Wattpad http://w.tt/1Qx1QAH.

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted for a while. But on the bright side I started writing a story on wattpad which I hope you'll like. So if you're interested feel free to check it out.

It follows a british/egyptian girl starting university.  She discovers the magical sistrum and her powers along the way. But she won't go through this alone as she has her potential lover and her trustworthy friends.

Till next time. Xoxo

What real freedom means?

Freedom, a word so simple yet so deep. We always see the meaning of freedom as being noble or not a slave. Someone who has the power to own other people's lives. But to me being free means being able to stand up for yourself,  make your own decisions and to take control of life.

You're not free if some figure in your life controls your decisions or choices. You're not free if you're bound to some toxic relationship and you can never break free from your chains.

Hey guys, so here is a mid week update, a little thought that passed my mind.  There is still a post I'll update later on this week. Love you guys, till next post. Xoxoxo

CeCe is A!!!!

Hey guys, sorry for the late update. I started studying for third secondry aka the year that determines your fate. I want to do a small change in my scheduel, I will update one post a week but not in a fixed day.

With that being said, What the hell happened in PLL??? I was so sure it was wren and I saw a theory that said Toby could be A and it kind of made sense. I thought Melissa was black widow and CeCe was Red coat.

But to know that CeCe is Charles aka A. It was a shock. The writers were honest about saying that we'll sympathise with A and that we will be shocked.

Never in a million years I would've thought Charles could be a transgender. But if you go on youtube and search for CeCe is Charles you'll find a couple of theories uploaded months ago saying that Charles is transgender and is CeCe. Really those who figured it out deserve applause.

After knowing who A is, I can't re watch the episodes with the same thrill or mystery. Tell me in the comments if you feel the same way.

Now as for Sara Harvey, never expected that either. She is black widow and red coat, but the thing is there was this episode I guess season 4 where CeCe was red coat and Ali was the other red coat.  Also when we saw  CeCe dressed in a black hoodie eavesdropping on Aria and Ezra that was basically her dressed as A. A clue given to us on a silver platter. But since we got used to look into the details, we didn't think the major clues would be true.

As for Charles being a transgender, we could've guessed it. Most of us were following the twin theory, as in Ali could have a sister.  Mrs D bought two dresses one christmas and A was obsessed with dolls, something usually a girl does.

I hope you enjoyed this week's post. Sorry if it's so long. Share and comment. Till next week. Xoxoxo

Awkward.

Hello my lovely readers, an update before time hallelujah.  I'm back from holiday and I'm freaking ill. Just my luck. (Note the sarcasm)

So as you can tell from the title, this week's post is called AWKWARD, It was an idea that just popped in my head, to write about some awkward situations that I faced in life because I'm weird like that and probably some of you could relate to them. If you do relate to them,  comment below which situation you related to or any other awkward situation you've been through.

1. When you're walking in the street and see someone you know and wave at them but they ignore you and keep walking, it's awkward enough on your own, but imagine being with someone else then you have to brush it off and make a lame excuse. Talk about awkward.

2. When you stretch out your hand to shake hands with someone and they skip your hand to shake someone else's.  *Eyeroll*

3. When the teacher asks you to explain something infront of the class, so you don't know whether to look at your teacher or your classmates while trying not to keep your eyes on your friends or your crush. *meh*

4. When you hang out with your friends without your bffs and you feel left out, they do not include you in any conversation and you end up sitting in a corner trying to look casual.

5. When you arrive first at your meet up spot and you have to sit alone while waiting for your friends,  you basically want to shout at people to stop staring because you have friends and not sitting alone.

6. When you're smart but end up looking completely stupid in front of your crush. *the struggle*

7. When you're speaking to someone but they get distracted by something or someone and they ignore you or stop listening so you shut up or finish what you were saying to someone else.

Sooo that's it for this week's post I hope you liked it, don't forget to comment below your awkward situations,  if you liked this post click the g+ button and I could make a part two in a couple of weeks. Because you know awkward situations never end.

Till next week byeee. Xoxo

Holiday/Beach essentials and tips

Hello my lovely readers, sorry for the late update but I have an excuse this time xd. I'm on holiday in Hurghada, some of you might know it, some of you might not.

Since I am spending most of my time on the beach, I decided my post this week will be about the essentials in my opinion you need to have at the beach.

1. A cool beach bag to fit all of your stuff, not too big, not too small.

2. Suncream with high spf, you should apply your suncream a while before you expose your self to the sun.

3. Water and juices to keep you hydrated through out the day. One of my favourite drinks is to flavoured water. Add some lemon slices, mint, berries and ice to your water and you have a nice healthy drink instead of boring water.

4. A good book to keep you entertained,  preferably a small sized one.

5. Nice comfortable flipflops, cool sunglasses, a nice hat.

¤ Tips:

-If your holiday is in a hot place like mine, avoid the sun in the midday hours (12-3)

-Your holiday is the time you connect with nature, don't waste it.

-Detox your soul from all the negativity you have in your life, keep your mind clear for a couple of days.

-Turn off the wifi as much as possible.

-Most importantly have fun and free yourself from any chains that might be holding you down.

I hope you enjoyed the blog post guys, and I would like to thank all of you, A couple of days ago I reached a thousand views on the blog which made me extremely happy. I couldn't have done it without you. Thanks for everyone who commented and shared the blog. I love all of you. Have a nice week. Xoxo

The Mortal Instruments: How to dress like Clary Fray?

Hello my lovely readers, I'm so sorry for the late update AGAIN, but no one is perfect right xd :)
So It has been a while since I last did a post on how to dress like a character, so I decided to do another one because why not!
Clary Fray is a character from the book series The mortal instruments which I haven't read, but I've seen the movie so this description will be according to the movie. Also a TV series based on the books is coming up in 2016 I guess which I'm really excited for, It's called Shadow Hunters.

So let's get started shall we.....

Clary is a red headed teen, who finds out she is a shadow hunter and her father is the bad guy Valentine. Her style goes into a transition state after she goes to the institution (the school for shadow hunters) from basics and flannel shirts to black and leather.

In the beginning of the movie we see Clary wearing Boyfriend Jeans/ Flannel shirts/ Hoodies/ Plain basic t-shirts (mostly white) / Combat boots/ Booties and minimum to no makeup.
                                     

 After going to the institution she borrows some clothes from Elizabeth (one of the shadow hunters) which is a tight short black dress and from that moment forward her style remains simple yet darker in colors or makeup. She wears more black, more leather, more bold daring outfits she never would've worn before. More makeup as she seems to have a very natural look before.

I hope you guys enjoyed the blog post of this week and if you have any specific characters you want me to include in my How to series, It would be a pleasure.
Don't forget to comment your opinion and give this post a plus, Have a happy week, till next time. XOXO :)

Egyptian teen life

Hello my lovely readers, so as you can tell by the title, this post is quite different from my normal blog posts. If you didn't already know, I'm Egyptian and I'm proud of it, but sometimes people assume that teens in Egypt are different from teens from the rest of the world, but we aren't we are just as normal as it gets. But there is though some minor differences.

So in this post I'm going to explain some of the few differences between us and the rest of the world.

1 Highschool in Egypt is called secondary school and it's only three years.

2 The third year of secondary school is the most stressful so we study so hard during this year to get      a high score to enter college.

3 The high scores are usually required to enter the faculty of engineering/ medicine/ pharmacy/        dentistry, which are the colleges that every parent wish their kid could enter which explains the  stressful part.

4 Colleges are for free for anyone, and after the results come out, there is a sort of a score limit for    each college, so if your results aren't enough, you either enter a private college which you pay money  for or you see what can your score get you in for free.

5 There is no prom, but there is a graduation party.

6 There isn't any parties, but we go out alot and we usually have birthday parties.

7 Some teens do drugs and get drunk but they are discreet about it.

8 We date but nothing physical happens and it's also discreet as well, parents usually don't know.

9 We are up to date with technology, we don't live in the stone age like some people think.

10 A large number is fluent in English and French like myself.

11 Our weekend is on friday and saturday, but I go to a christian catholic school so my weekend is on      sunday and friday.

12 We have events, like colour festivals and entertainment days instead of parties.

I hope you enjoyed this post and learned new info, Don't forget to share it and comment your opinion till next time. XoXo

Relationship advice

Hello my lovely readers, again an update on sunday. I'm being so punctual, it's starting to scare me, just kidding.

So for this week's post I'm telling you my advice and sort of a conclusion of what I learned through some of my personal experiences.

1. Wait for the right time, don't jump into a relationship to prove something.  Just because everybody around you is dating, doesn't mean you should date too if you are not comfortable with it.

2. It gets better, these three words are so true, you have to trust me on them. Think about it, look back at some personal issues you faced, see if you have come to terms with them and that you found closure.  If you did then this situation well pass too. Because it's not the end of the world.

3. Do your best in trying to make the relationship succeed.  Exert all your efforts, but know when to stop. But then you'll at least move on knowing that you did all that you could and you'll save yourself from a series of WHAT IFs.

4. If it's meant to happen it will happen, if not now maybe in a couple of years. 

5. Know how to let go, come to terms to be in peace with what have become of the relationship.

6. There are plenty of fish in the sea. (This one doesn't need an explanation ;) )

7. Instead of crying and wasting your precious time on something that happened,  Do something productive.

8. Always be open to opportunities,  don't turn someone down unless you give them a chance.

9. If what you had with someone is worth saving and they asked for a second chance. Give it to them.

10. Be confident in yourself and have faith and trust in your significant other.

I hope you found these tips helpful.

Song addiction of the week #1

Hello, once again my lovely readers, an update on sunday and on time. Yaaaaaaaay.
So this week's post will be about my song addiction of the week,  which will be like a series I'll start on the blog. When like I have new songs and new music I'm obsessed with.

If you haven't known, I'm a huge pll fan, while watching episode 2 &3 I guess the closing songs were really catchy and they are:
(Give us a little love by Fallullah) & (Skipping Stones by Claire De Lune)
I'm obsessed with these two.

Also if you know Theo James, he is casted as Four in Divergent,  he is a really good singer, so I've lately been listening to his track (Skin) which is really awsome.

And (Summertime Sadness by Lana Del Rey)
(Take me to church by Ellie Goulding)
(Glory and Gore by Lorde)

Actually these three singers are my favourite singers of all time.

So I hope you enjoyed the post , if you are into more hyper and pop songs then these songs are not for you because I kinda like the quiet and sad type of songs if you know what I mean.

Don't forget to push the g+ button down there, don't be a silent reader and share this post and the whole blog with your friends. Comment your opinion. Love you lots. Xoxoxo.

Look closer

Don't you all wonder sometimes that the only two things the whole world agrees on are birth and death.

Birth, if you look closer and take the time to understand you'll see that we are all concieved and born the same way, thus we should all agree on equality.  As we are born the same way, we should all be treated equally. Whatever your ethnicity is.

Death, if you look closer then you'll know that we all die at the end of the ride but how are we taken is the difference. Murder, suicide, accidents,  illness, gunshots, wars and even peacefully.
So if we know, if we believe that we all go by different ways we should believe in diversity. We should be able to accept our differences.

Only if we look closer.

Sorry my lovely readers for the most late update in the world. Please don't kill me..xd
So this thought just came to my mind, I normally write this stuff on facebook but I wanted to share this with all of you so from now on my thoughts are going to be written on here and shared on facebook.
Let me know what you think in the comments below.  Love you lots. Xoxo

Airport essentials

Hellooo guys, Today I'm at the airport so I decided to do a post on essentials you take with you to the airport. Also I'm only updating this week on saturday because since I'm on vacation I'll probably forget to post. Now enough blabbing ;).

Travelling by plane is always fun, I'm one of those people that think of it as an adventure.  The essentials you take with you in the bag you board with differs from one person to the other and also according to the length of the flight.

The essentials I am going to tell you about are the basic essentials you take on a short flight, so let's get started.

1 A bagpack that is big enough to fit alot of stuff in it.

2 Headphones so you can listen to music to pass time and don't disturb people around you.

3 Gum is a majooor essential because of the aeroplane pressure.

4 A comfy outfit to wear because you don't want to wait in an itchy outfit for a couple of hours.

5 A good book is great way to pass time.

Those are my essentials for a flight and I know that alot of people have anxiety or are scared of aeroplanes in general. Try to overcome that and just enjoy the ride.

Hope you find this post useful,  Don't forget to give this post a plus, share it, comment your opinion and till next week. Byeeee xoxo.

10 spring/summer essentials

Hello my lovely readers, we are in spring and approaching summer and I know in many countries it's getting really hot. So I decided to do this week's blog post on 10 spring/ summer essentials every girl needs.

1 A swimsuit: This is a must, if yours is getting worn out, just go buy another one, it doesn't matter what style just buy something you feel confident and comfortable in.

2 Denim shorts: They just go with everything unlike patterned or coloured shorts.

3 A skirt/dress: Just have something that you can throw on whenever you want.

4 Sandals: You can never go wrong with a good pair of sandals.

5 A good conditioner: Since the weather is getting hotter your hair is getting drier, so make sure to give your hair the care it needs.

6 Books: If you're a bookworm like me then you'll love reading a good on the beach. I recommend small sized books beacause you want to read but you also don't want to torture yourself by carrying a 500 paged book.

7 A good quality sunblock: Unless you want to get burned then you have to buy one.

8 Sunglasses: Don't go for anything too expensive but also don't buy too cheap ones beacause they can harm your eyes.

9 Good refreshing music: So you can listen to them on the beach,  in your room .....etc

10 A good group of friends: If your friends are all lazy and stuff, get to know other people who want to hang out and have fun.

That's it for this week's blog, hope you found it helpful, share it with your friends and family.

The Age Of Adaline

Hello my lovely readers, it's a fine sunday except for the fact that I have to study physics. Oh the joy I feel right now!!

This month a great movie is finally hitting theatres, well you probably guessed it from the title. (The Age Of Adaline), it is such a great movie, I haven't seen it yet but I saw the trailer and it was breathtaking, it is my favourite type of movie, romace, fiction, drama, different time,  and a bit of tragedy.

If you haven't seen the trailer click here.

It is such a great movie to see with friends or on a date. I really recommend it.

Till next week, byeeeee xoxo

Tips for a more healthy lifestyle.

Hello my lovely readers, A blog post on sunday as I promised. Yaaay!!

So these days the trend going on is being healthy / vegan / do yoga / juice cleansing.  But as for me if I followed any of these routines I will get bored easily not that I'm saying don't follow these things. I'm saying that if you're a lazy person like me here are some tips for leading a healthier life style. I AM NO HEALTH EXPERT, THESE ARE SOME TIPS THAT HELPED ME AND I DECIDED TO SHARE WITH YOU.

1 Drink loads of water at least 8 cups a day (I know everybody knows this one)

2 Have your meals in a fixed time with a six hour difference between each meal. For example: (7 am/ 1 pm / 7 pm)

3 As for cleansing, I'm not a big fan of drinking juices for 3 days, however, having a healthy smoothie for dinner is very good for you beacause it's light/ healthy/ easy for your stomach to digest.

4 Have breakfast like a king
   Have lunch like the rich
   Have dinner like the poor

5 Design a 10 minute workout you can fit through your day and do it multiple times daily.  (Jumping rope is one of my faves)

6 Be healthy in your choices, if you're at a restaurant instead of choosing something fried choose something grilled

7 If you genuinely stay healthy for most of your week it is okay to have a cheat meal as a reward once in a while

So these are my tips for you, I hoped you found them useful. Don't forget to follow me and leave your comments below I'd love to hear your opinions. Xoxo
