Trick or Treat?!




I'm from Ukraine and here Halloween isn't that popular. We don't go trick or treating, there are poor costume options in stores and it's really hard to find a great theme party.
Although there is something we can really participate in - PUMKING CARVING. I, mean, there thousands of pumpkins in autumn here. I don't know why other people buy it, I personally will get it as a decoration.
So what do you need to do for a
 perfect scary pumpkin lantern?
  1. Buy a pumpkin. (big or small, round, oval or oblong - it's totally up to you)
  2. Get a knife, a spoon, a bowl and a marker pen - yeah, crazy chef toolbox.all following steps should be followed by BE CAREFUL AND DON'T HURT YOURSELF.
  3. Cut the top part of the pumpkin off using a knife. Don't throw it away, though, we will need it later.
  4. Take a spoon&bowl. Scoop all the innards out. It's up to you what to do with it: you can either throw everything out or cook something tasty.
    Here are few ideas to help you:

    or just roast pumpkin seeds and enjoy them along with Tim Burton's movies.
  5. Take a marker pen and draw a scary face on the pumpkin. Traditionally, it should be scary, but it's up to your imagination and creativity.

  6. Take a knife again. Cut out the face.
  7. Put a candle inside you pumpkin.
  8. Light the candle up.
  9. Put the top (from the step 3) on the pumpkin.
  10. Enjoy!
    or
    Be frightened!)
I am in this Halloween spirit for a while now but didn't do a single thing about it. Well, YOLO (don't judge me:) ) - tomorrow I'm going to the market and buy a pumpkin. Carve one and decorate my room.
This video - ohh, halloween'y and fun - nice thing to watch, while carving your Jack-o'-lantern:

Furious 7

The last part of well-known series of action films about street racers. And like every ending this one could not be better. 
Warning: tears won’t stop and you will walk around impression from this film for a while. But it totally worth it.


It includes everything good from previous chapters but, as we all know old is better when it mixed with something new.
This film has everything we expected in it: sexiness, love stories, a whole package of different emotions, strong and handsome men, sexy and smart women, few good fights, a lot (and I mean A LOT) of cars expensive, amazing cars and our all-time favorites:  black Dodge Charger and blue Nissan Skyline.  
This movie is a great way to spend more than 2 hours of your time and enjoy not only a good visual effects, but also a music. Musical producers did a great job, and included a music that not only will increase the pleasure of watching a movie, but also music that you would like to add to your playlist.
And guys, believe me you gotta need wipes. Romantic scene where Letti remembers everything, but where your emotions hit the top is moment when Dominic says goodbye to his best friend, to his brother – Paul Walker. 
Those words are too amazing and what is more important they are too real. 

"I used to say I lived my life a quarter mile at a time and I think that's why we were brothers-because you did, too. No matter where you are, whether it's a quarter mile away or half way across the world. The most important thing in life, will always be the people in this room. Salute mi familia. You'll always be with me... And you'll always be my brother." - Vin Diesel  
















In conclution - that is kind of movie that shows us how important is family and friendship in our lives. And that family doesn't difine by blood, it defines by people you care the most, by people who are right there to help and support you.

Maybe all we need is to find someone who will convince ourselves that it’s 100 % normal to feel or to live that way.Someone who will understand how is it to stay up all night just thinking about your past or about your mistakes.A person who will tell you how beautiful you are no matter how ugly you feel.That one who will enjoy your company no matter how bad you feel or how depressed you are. 

That one who will stay around you because you are friends.

Yes, I was talking about friendship. Nowadays, while everyone tries to score all relationships goals we tend to forgot how it’s important to have friends. To have someone that will answer you phone in 2 am in the morning just to discuss the new ‘supernatural’ episode or a friend who will come to your home with pizza and a bottle of wine.

A person that will stand by your side no matter what, a friend that you can be weird version of yourself with and you will both enjoy it. And if you’ve found that person in your relative, in you boy-/girl- friend, in a childhood friend - then lucky you, and if you are still looking that good luck for you, because it’s hard work but it worth all the efforts.
