My first Youtube Video + DIY friendship bracelet- Candy Stripe pattern

So yes! I finally started to upload videos on youtube! :)
My first video is a how-to, Candy Striped pattern for friendship bracelets.

It is not very good quality, and camera was zooming in and out all the time, Idk why though....But it is enough for a beginner :)

What you need:

• All you need is emboidery thread, rubber thread or waxed thread. ( I personally suggest emboidery thread)
• You have to use at least 4 strings. The more the strings, the bigger the bracelet.
• You can use two strings of each color, or one string, depending on the number of colors you want.
• All strings must be around 60-65 cm (around 25 inches)

How to do it:

• Firstly, do a knot with all the strands.
• Then, separate the colors. If you use twice the same color, don't put both strings next to each other.
• Take the outer string from the left and do a forwards knot to the second string. [if you don't know how to do a forwards knot, request it :) ]
• You do a forwards knot TWICE
• You do the same thing with the rest of the strings, until the one you started with is the outer right.
• You repeat the same proccess all the time.
• When you reach the length you desire, do a knot with all the strings, like in the beggining.

This is the bracelet I used in the video :)

This is the simplest way to do the candy stripe pattern.There are also many other fun ways to do this specific one :)

I hope  you like it! What do you think of this pattern?? Try it out, and send me a response with photos of your own creations :)

Happy Birthday to my Blog + Tagged questions

And yeah, my blog is finally officially six months old!!! Well, in some hours it becomes six months old :) I am so happy about it and it seems fun the fact that I have almost 60 followers in 6 months.....Anyways, My friend Cherry tagged me to some questions, which I am going to answer NOW!


THE QUESTIONS:


1.What does Urban Dictionnary say about your name?

Ugh, so many things....

• a sexy ass mother fucker who gets everything she wants. all the guys wanna fuck her. shes usually extremely horny and likes dick. definitely not me...
•  A crazy-ass anthropology major. Do not be around her when she's drunk or she'll cut your hair with a meat cleaver.
• A big-boobed petite cherie. Most famous for losing things (apart from being big boobed), especially London Oyster cards and occasionally bank cards. Tendency to make outrageous statements.
• A girl who is often sad and lonely but hides it from the world with defiance.

2. What is your biggest pet peeve?

Uhm, I don't really understand what peeve means >.<

3. What's your favourite line from a book?

I really like The House of Night book series, and I love everything in it. All books have nice phrases, but I remember this one. "Actually, since I'm gay I think I should count for two guys instead of just one. I mean, in me you get the male point of view and you don't have to worry about me wanting to touch your boobies." It is  not my favourite, just one I liked, said by my favourite character Damien, that is gay.

4. Are you a day person or a night person?

I like both, but I am afraid of darkness.....However if there are many people around me I love night.

5. If I gave you a flying carpet, what place comes to your mind that you wanna visit first and why?

Definitely England. I am in love with that country, obsessed with everything about it. From the countryside to busy London lifestyle to the tea or the rain.

6. If your life was a book what would be the title and why?

I haven't thought of it much, really. I don't know!!!

7. If you could be in a TV show what would it be and which character would you like to portray? Why?

• The Vampire Diaries- Bonnie. She is a witch, I love witches and I also love her character.
• Lost- Claire. I like the Australian accent, My favourite guy is Charlie, so if I was Claire he would fancy me.Also in Lost, in the first season we also see Ian Somerhalder, that stars in the V.D.
• C.S.I. New York- Detective Stella Bonasera. I don't think I could cope with all that blood, but Melina Kanakaredes is greek, I like all this stuff with evidence and investigations.

8. If you are a time traveler, what time in the past would you like to go back? Why?

I would love to go in Victorian England. As I said before, I like english culture, and I find their past fascinating. Or I would like to visit the colonies at america, at the colonial age. ( I am a huge Age Of Empires fan)

9. Do you cook? If yes, what's your specialty?

Cakes. and Toasts.

10. Do you have a phobia? If yes, what is it? How do you handle it?

Yes. I am afraid of darkness. I cant handle it, I have just accepted it. I also am afraid of all kinds of insects, and I really can't cope with them. I find them disgusting, horrible, annoying and many other adjectives that would take a day to write down.

11. What is your opinion about online dating?

NO. ITS ABSOLUTE.

12. What is romantic for you?

Someone wakes you up, brings breakfast to bed, gives you a gentle kiss and a rose...

Someone takes you for a stroll in the park, and buys you a lollipop, or a teddy bear....

You walk with your love at Paris with the Eiffel Tower in sight...

You kiss under the rain or at a starry night....

THE FUN FACTS:

1. In the past I used to listen to music every night to fall asleep, with headphones of bad quality at the end of the scale ( i think it was 50). So now, my friends have to repeat something for 5 times, which is funny but annoying.

2. One friend said to me once. I have never seen you sad, I always remember you smiling, laughing without reason, and never crying. I guess I simply can't do elseways....

3. Even if I am 14 and something, when I meet my friend from Athens, I always act like a 7 year-old. We have competitions on Super Mario Bros. and on Sims Castaway.

4. I am a Sims 2 nerd. My record for playing until now is for 14 hour without any breaks, I even ate lunch in front of the screen.

7.I sleep with a teddy bear EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.

8.I am afraid of darkness.thats why I sleep with my teddy.

9.My teddy bear is called mr.Red Cookie. It is a very soft yellow camel from IKEA, with red dots, that remind me of biscuits, and a tongue that looks like he just ate some delicious cookies.

10.I like to keep track of silly things.I do stupid surveys about stupid things all the time.

11.My friend from Athens calls me stupid and I call her idiot.

12.At volleyball I tell everyone that I simply havent eaten breakfast so I dont have enough power, instead of telling them that i simplydont have much force.

MY QUESTIONS:

3. Would  you dare to cut your hair alone?

6. In case you were on a plane crash and survived on a god forsaken island, what would you miss the most from civilisation?

7. Suppose you have to take a decision, in a job dilemma. One choice will give you some spare time but very low potential and almost zero possibilities to take promotions but stay in that position forever. Other choice is greatly risky, and will cause a chain of other risk taking decisions, that will lead either to the very top of your career or to the very bottom.Which one would you choose?

9.If you could bring time back, would you change any of your actions?

(I drew it, but flowers suck a bit)

Not just entertainment...

Today was a completely different Sunday for me....I didnt sleep all morning, and then stuck to pc screen, instead I had a very productive day.
Me and some other girls, decided to go to the girls' orphanage of my town, for lunch, since we were invited by the director of the place.She is the manager of the camp we go at summer, so she was extremely friendly with us, and all of the girls there were very hospitable. We had brought many presents to them, such as clothes, and a couple of videogames.... Ms Demetra, the manager, was completely ignorant of our intentions, so she didn't expect it. All the girls were soooooo happy when we gave them the presents! And I am happy I spent some of my pocket money for such a good cause :)
We went early in the morning, so they had prepared breakfast, some very tasty home-made croissants, a greek delicacy called bougatsa, some milk and the atmosphere was great....After the breakfast we watched two movies, one with some tigers, and then, the TinkerBell one.
One of the girls, Mary, had her birthday today, and she became 6 years old!!!! Oh, it was soo fun watching her blow the candles!!! We ate so much today, that I definitely got 1 kilo..... :/
after that, we played in the garden a bit, and then we went for lunch....A special italian pasta meal...It was AWESOME. REALLY. Everyone there was incredibly friendly, and I was a bit surprised by the quality of life those girls have. All of them (the older ones) have mobiles, they have playstation and other stuff like consoles, the house is very big, with lots of space, the cooks are very polite and they prepare tasty food.... The only thing that they don't have are they parents.....But they have two very wonderful ladies that spend all their fortunes at that house, and provide them an excellent life! AT the end of the day, we all thanked Ms. Stavroula and Ms. Demetra for the awesome day, we kissed the girls and we left.
Unfortunately, we didn't take any photos today, but next Saturday, I am going on trip with the other girls, and the girls from the orphanage, at Ioannina, a greek city. It is going to be real cold however, and I am a bit worried, cause I don't have many warm clothes.....

Anyway, good night sweethearts!! :)

My own Converse Collection...

HI there!! It's been a while since the last time I posted something about clothes, but yesterday a recieved a present... It was one more pair of Converse- All Star, which now is the 8th pair I possess. It is really nice, purple....

Like everytime I buy something new, I took some photos, only that this time I took photos of the whole collection.. For some -unknown!- reason, I try to make every photo I take, a bit more artistic, and now that picnik is closing and so it has made the premium options free, I use it quite a lot. Luckily, it is closing on April 19th, so I have enough time to process many photos.

My Converse Collection. Butterflies, Stars, Love and Bees, Santa Claus, Stripes, Pink, Black jeans, Checked, Paul Frank, Purple.

In case you haven't noticed, the black jeans one, with the checked fabric inside, is bought from ZARA, and the one with Julio the monkey, is bought from The Paul Frank Store, in The Mall, Athens.

Now some random photos of these shoes:

Converse shoes. I love them...

Simply put, I love Converse shoes..

Once More, These are my converse shoes.

Probably the most clear and artistic one, from my converse shoes collection.
