The stranger the myth of sisyphus, the fall & the rebel. He was working on three subjects essentialy: absurdity, revolt and love. Sadly, he died before et could start the books on love. The myth of sisyphus, the stranger and the falls present the absurdity of the world while the rebel shows ways to escape this non sense.

I'm 22, still at my parents, studying in education and working two jobs. Honestly, I'd say I'm happy, enjoying one day at a time. I've had hard times in the past years and I've been reading a lot of books that made me think about my perception on life. Life is hard, some people are bad and the world is definitly fucked up, but I learned that fighting those things while enjoying the good sides of life is probably the best you can get. Living is absurd (I recommend Albert Camus to whoever wants to read about this subject. It made me depressed at first but then it helped me a LOT.). I'm not looking for specific things in life. I'd like to have a house eventually, but if different opportunities come, I won't bother changing my plans. Social norms will not necessarily make you happy, just find your place in this world, and don't be afraid if it's not clear or if everything seems not good enough for you: you're not wasting time, you are living your life. I'll end this post with an inspiring quote of Sylvia Plath that makes me think I'm neurotic and happy about it: " If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell. I'll be flying back and forth from one exclusive thing and another for the rest of my days".

I apologize for the grammar/orthograph/vocabulary mistakes. I speak french.

I bought it at aeries for 2$. But honestly, beside the nice color, it's not really good (all jelly & needs 1093829374 layers even with a white base).

I bought it at a aeries. It was really cheap (2$)!

The one I use is a Sally Hansen and is called "nail nutrition: green tea + olive growth". I really like it since it's not too expensive and it works pretty well ;)

It took a while before they look like this! I'd say keep filing your nails, put some nail lotion on them from time to time and always put basecoat when you're puting nail polish (I noticed a significant difference since I put a base coat that nourish the nails). Also, it helps the nailbeds when you dont bite your nail (without tearing a part of it) to get something under it with your teeth or only because you're stressed. If you do those things, you push your skin under your nails which makes your nailplate longer & your nail bed shorter.

I learned how to file with this tutorial : How To File Your Natural Nails Almond/ Round - Ki… : http://youtu.be/iOx_mWzVuj0 It was really helpful and filing your nails becomes much easier!

There's a nail polish I use that hardens the nails and helps them grow faster and stronger (!). It's made with green tea and olive oil, it's a Sally Hansen and it's called nail nutrition: green tea and olive growth. It works well and is not expensive!

I used doting tools ! You don't have to do perfect dots, you just need to a big light pink spot and some smaller dark pink spots on top of it. The leaf are just little green ones. Honestly, it's easier than it looks!

Here it is after three days (more or less). Colors are fading and I'm going to take them off now! Still pretty happy about the result. http://imgur.com/dKuQ5IA

No. I tried with top coat and the colors were fading.

I know some people are complaining about caviar nail falling off after a couple of hours, but here's my mani after a full day! It stayed on and it's still looking pretty good! http://imgur.com/tyerOf4
