Moving out!

Yes, is happening! after all my wishes, and secret hopes, the moment has come. I got an internship in a company located about 3 hrs away from home, and I'm happy, and sad and confused at the same time. I think Taylor Swift was right when she wrotte 22, people in the 20's are happy, free, lonely and it's definetly miserable and magical haha damn it Taylor stop writting about everything I feel lately.

Anyway, I'm going over to the city to search for a room or apartment, something not too expensive, cause I'll be getting paid every month and a ver small salary,but it's okay cause is a huge company, and the I have to take this opportunity, even if it makes sad. I think I'll miss everything and everyone, I told my boyfriend over the phone yesterday, but he's away all the time, over the last month I only have seen him like 3 times, and I miss him terribly, and when I leave I'm gonna miss him even more, I hope he can visit me over there or I think I'll lose my mind.

Oh yeah, the reason I'm writting this is cause I know lots of you are already out of your parents houses, so I want to know what kind of stuff did you pack? furniture? cd's? books? aghh I just wanna take my whole room but it's not possible, so any tips are very well welcomed! :)

I hope you're having a lovely weekend! x.

Inspiration. #2

Hi, how is everyone? I hope good. This is the second time I'm doing this inspiration post, and the reason I'm doing it,it's cause I genuilly feel inspire, I've been trough a really rough patch, I've been doubting myself about my career choice, about why I didn't got the internship, I've been hiding in my room everyday, drowning in self pity, I don't wanna say I've been depressed, cause that's a clinical condition which I think is not my case, I just have a terrible case of self pity, you know? but I've realized that is completly normal, most of us go trough these weird cycles in our lifes, but it's okay, the thing here is that you have to look things on a differtent way, you know? yesterday I read this piece "What to do when you don't get your dream job?" on Hello Giggles, and I finally got it, is not really my fault, or my boyfriend's fault this whole internship thing, ultimately, the people who interview us had the last call, they decided, and maybe is cause there's something better out there for me while I'm here drowning in sadness and self pity, but I'm ready to move on and start over again, I'm re-writting my resume, I'm practicing and thinking about possible questions and answers for interviews, I'm researching what are my options and finally leaving my room (after this post of course). So, I just wanted to say that if you feel like this sometimes, is okay, you'll come trough it, but also if you feel like there's no way you can recover, talk to your family and try to get some professional help.



Tyra Banks Facebook page is the best, she posted these and I thought, well damn it, if TyTy is saying it then is probably true. Also she's the fiercest gal around so yeah.

Nicki Minaj, this is not a quote I think, but she's a bad ass women, she speaks her mind, and well doesn't give a fuck.

I found these on tumblr, and I liked it, so have a dream and make it real dudes.

This gal, Nicole Loher, I follow her blog on tumblr(the pic links you),she's younger than me,she's at NY making her way into fashion world, she seems so focus and she truly is an inspiration.

I like E.E.Cummings poems, and this tiny part, means a lot, growing up is hard, confusing and scary, so it reall does take courage to be the person YOU want to be.


Self explainatory, if someone close is not letting you grow or feel good about yourself, don't keep them around.
Well, like damn, if Beyonce is out there being bad ass,well so can I.

True fact.

Very hard sometimes, but try to.

Uh okay, if Eminem says it, then yeah...

And well there's not inspirational post without Kanye, like you know it, right? 

I know some people say, uh but these people are famous,uh is easier for them, but it wasn't always easy, and to me at least I find inspiration in them, obviously I can't sing like Beyonce or rap like Kanye, but I definetly can be the best at my own thing, at my own life...

So tell me, what kind of things or people inspires you?

Take care. x.

Life: Organizing and getting your stuff together.

Hello everyone!
This time I'll talk about organizing and basically getting your s**t together, and be ready to face the end of semester. I've seen some really good post about this matter in several blogs like these ones from Stefanie, or these articles from Rookie , so I'll just do my take on the subject. I'm preparing for 2 months of papers, exams, lab practices, and interviews for interships, so I must begin to keep myself on track and organized so I won't forget anything like I always do, this is really hard if like me, you forget to write down due dates, exam dates, doctor appointments, birthdays and well everything, I mean the other day I couldn't remember my boyfriend's birthday, and that's just sad.

So let's begin!.
1. Try to write down everything important, exam dates, laboratory days, due dates. EVERYTHING. For this my friends I recomend you to get a dayly planner, or a cute notebook, cause that way you'll feel motivated to write in it, and to check it out later.




2. For some people write it down may be enough, but for is not, so I write it on timetables or calendar sheets, I did mine on Office Publisher, is quite easy, you can change the font color and add pictures so you can personalize it as much as you want, then tape it on a visble place, like your wall, closet, notebook.



3. If you have a smartphone, tablet, or any kind of techonology where you can download apps, then there's another worl of possibilities, I've read that EverNote is really good, and you can have it on your phone and computer, usually  phones already include a calendar app, but there some like colornote or clip note so you can do lists, or set alarms, or anything... 

4. Clear your computer, yesterday I deleted tons of papers from 4 years ago, my recomendation is to only keep the ones that you think could be useful, otherwise just delet it, for example I kept some pdf files that some teachers sent and that was it.

5. Same goes for printed papers, or exams, or notes, you can recycle them or take them to the nearest recycling center.

6. If you keep a lot of your papers on you USB, try to make folders for each subject, cause if you don't, you may get lost on 1000 files, also try to do de same on your computer, it'll make things easier.



7. Now. I'm the first one to admit that I'm a very messy person, but when it comes to my uni notes, damn I can be very neat, now I know is really hard to write down everything so don't even try, here's what I've learnt of 4 years of taking notes:

  • Write only the most important things, you can tell by the voice tone the teacher uses.
  • If the teachers says "Pay attention this might be on the exam" Damn right you need to write it down, after the explination.
  • If the teacher uses Power Point or any kind of presentations, even if he says he'll send it later, TAKE NOTES, cause let's face it, we all get lazy, and hardly ever check those presentations outside of class.
  • If they're doing a presentation, just take notes when the teacher explains something about an specific slide.
  • If you fancy, you can use different pen colors for titles, subtitles, bullet points, and whatever


8. For Exams I don't really have good tips, cause I found that when I pay attention on teorical subjects, it stays on my mind, and when I took math, phisycs,biochemistry, chemistry, and that kind of subjects I used to practice a lot, so do exercises, and may be you should start studying these subjects like 3 weeks before?

9. If you're on exams already, please try to sleep properly, eat healthier, cause if you get sick then things get a lot worse. Also if you feel like you really can't deliver some papers and you're not sleeping or eating, and you're feeling weird, please ask for an extension, I'm sure your teachers will understead, remember at the end of the day what is really important is how you feel not a grade on a paper.



I think this is it, this is pretty much what I do, is very hard to be organized, BUT it has really good rewards like you may have more time to spend with your friends, also reward yourself when you're done with a very hard task!I got too excited using this page Picmonkey haha I hope you find this useful, and have a lovely week everyone! x


PS. if something is not written properly, please let me know, I'm still studying english.
