My First Halloween!!!

TRICK OR TREAT?

I'll take both thank you :)

As most of you already know, I live in Israel. Sadly we don't celebrate this AWESOME Holiday here.

We celebrate Purim, a Jewish holiday in which we dress in costumes and getting really wasted is a blessing. But Henya Mania doesn't settle for less and I'll take both holidays why thank you for asking :)

This year I decided on making my own Halloween party at my place one week before, and go out to all the parties at Halloween itself, that way I can dress in different costumes, and get to decorate my house and make creepy Halloween vegan food!

I was a sugar skull thingy [what is that? can someone please explain this to me in the comments?] and my friend Bat-Chen the makeup artist did my AWESOME makeup, and Alina took my photos. Thanks LOVES!

The rest om the pics are in my fb :)

All in all we had an awesome house party! but now I have to think of my next costume! any ideas?

What's your costume for Halloween this year? Let me know in the comments!

Have a happy and creepy Halloween little Maniacs! ♥

Purim! Camera! Vday! Oh the excitement...

Wadup Maniacs :)

BIG NEWS!
I bought a new camera!!!!!
Canon 650D rebel t4i :)
It's about fucking time...Now that I have a legit mic and an awesome camera, wait for a lot more pro videos on my channel :)

So, how was Valentine's day?
Mine was great!
Me and my boyfriend Michael went out for dinner at a restaurant. it was packed! After that we decided to go play some billiard, which was very not typical for us, but you have to spice up your lives once in a while..
I totally kicked his ass, but that's not his fault. when I was a kid our family used to have a pool table at home and me and my brothers [mostly me and myself] used to play it. so I had some advantage...

Michael also made me some vegan chocolates that were absolutely amazing and delicious...

Anyway, for those of you who are not Israeli, you can't imagine the craze that's going on all over the country.
Why you ask?
Well, it's PURIM TIME!

Purim is a Jewish holiday we celebrate every year at around this time, where we wear costumes and party till we drop, just like Halloween - but Jewish. we celebrate this holiday to remember that the Jews were saved from a massacre in Persia, and we drink wine and eat crappy sweets, wear costumes and party our asses off.


This is my favorite holiday of all, I mean, who doesn't love to dress up and be someone else for a while?

BTW, also here, as well as in the US, a lot of the girls take this opportunity to dress like sluts, and yours truly is no different :)

I have so many plans for this year! I'm going to a ton of parties, Zombie Walk and an Anime Convention!
I'm not gonna say what's my costume for this Purim...Your'e going to have to wait for my next post..
But for now, here are some pics from previous Purim costumes :)

Harlem Shake Baby!

Sup little maniacs? :)

I have a new video up on my channel!

Even I was swept away by the Harlem Shake craze! 

This video was sooooo much fun to make!

All we did was just go shit crazy and dance our asses off!

My neck is still sour from all that activity..I have to go back to shape..

I wanted to show that us girls don't wanna be locked in the kitchen and cook and clean - GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN!

And so we did :)

I had the help of my awesome girls - Gali Cohen, Rachel Drori, Tova Geiger and Liad Vital!

Thank you girls! ♥♥♥

Makeup Photoshoots And Japanese Calligraphy!

Sup maniacs? :) 

As you all know [caz you obviously read my hard worked 'about' tab above], I'm a university student, and im pleased to announce that....

*DRUM ROLL*

This is the last week of the first semester in my second year in the university, and in 4 more exams, I cant say I finished half a degree!

I'm so eager to finish my studies! I'm just so tired from it and I seriously lack the energy to go through with it.
But anyway, this week we're having a Japanese calligraphy workshop [I'm majoring in Asian studies], and it's my second time participating in it.
In the workshop we carve the calligraphy in wood [kokuji shodou], it's a very unique calligraphy technique, and this year I'm carving the character for "fire".
Today we just wrote it on paper and in the next days we'll carve it on wood. In the next post I'll show you my progress :)

 

                                                     

Last year's workshop, I carved a much more complicated character, "consideration", in order to convey the need for consideration towards animals. What's funny is that my boyfriend [not at that time] Michael carved an "animal" character, which is kinda complementary :)

So yesterday I made a vegan lunch for me and my Michael. i made Quinoa, Asian green beans with sesame seeds and Korean style tofu [dubu jorim]...it was delicious! OMNOMNOM!



Oh and another thing, a vegan friend of mine who studies makeup, wants me to model for her! So this week we made some trial photoshoots... And I got her to curl my hair!
LOVE IT!
I'll upload more pics on the next post!








Things are getting more solid with The Twilight Saga Parody and it'll be on my channel in the following days...
I'm sooooo excited!
I can't wait for when my hard work will be out there on YouTube :)
And apparently I'm not the only one! Here are some Twilight fans who are excited about my upcoming parody!
