I'm back :)

It's been a while, I've tried to start tumbling..but i just don't know how I like it. In fact, I've probably lost all of my followers on this blog.
I feel like I've walked into an empty room; it's cold and I can hear my foot steps echo.
Orrrr, maybe the room isn't empty at all, and everyone is on the couch and floor watching a movie with a bowl of popcorn.. haha to be honest i'm not quite sure where these room metaphors were referring to, but it's good to be back on blogger.

Sometimes saying goodbye is the second chance

strange

¿Alguna vez miraste una foto de ti mismo y viste a un extraño en el fondo? Te hace pensar cuántos extraños tienen una foto de ti, de cuántos momentos de la vida de otras personas has tomado parte, si fuimos parte de la vida de alguien cuando sus sueños se hicieron realidad. Tan solo piensa, podrías formar gran parte de la vida de otra persona, y ni siquiera saberlo...

Have you ever looked at a picture of yourself and saw a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder how many strangers have a photo of yourself, how many moments of other people's lives we have taken part in without knowing. If we were part of  someone's life when their dreams came true. Just think, you could have helped form the background for a large part of another person's life, and not even know it...

okay

who do you talk to when your closest friend isn't that close anymore?

HEY!

EVERYBODY TWITTER GO GO GO!

Update

I am trying really really hard to get this fashion blog up and running..but I can't seem to get the blog all pretty and fashiony. The truth is that I'm very technically challenged so blog and graphic design are my weak points.
On the bright side, I do have a few posts in mind once I do get the site up and running. :)

Let me know if you guys have ANY ideas, please please pleeease.

So much fun!

I bought these gorgeous Vera Wangs on sale for $20 marked down for $120! They are incredibly comfortable and fit perfectly :) the only problem being I'm a newbie to the whole when and where to wear high heels. Can I wear them with jeans? To the movies? Church? I have no idea..so I decided to ask the beautiful community that is Lookville. <3

“I just bought these Simply Vera peep-toes on sale! Do these make better as casual or semiformals?”

@BleachedNirvana: Formals. Not my thing but cute. Semiformals at a push, but anthing with gemstones and a heel has to be formal- ish, to prevent from looking like you've made too much of an effort.


@writersblock101: These would look so cute with a simple black dress, or red, and some silver jewelry. I think this would have to be a semiformal-formal outfit with these being the statement piece. Make sure to keep everything else simple and toned down so you don't distract from them as a statement piece.

@audreyo: I say not semi formal. Semi-formal is an opp to wear a fabulous dress, why sacrifice that option to showcase a shoe? Rather try a minimal approach to an outfit for a night out...say sexy jeans, or a plain well tailored skirt (no hose, please don't do that!) and a Michael Stars T... and REALLY let your shoe shine and be the centerpiece of the outfit? I learned this trick from Rachel Zoe on location at a major Hollywood event-- and got nothing but compliments on my shoes allllll night long.... and I thought nobody noticed your feet. WRONG :-)!

@Shima: def formal, with the stones it makes it dressy, u could a nice dress or even a pair of dark wash jeans with a a nice top

@RocketteFromTheCrypt: Darling, there's nothing casual about these shoes!

@youheardithere: Not for only semi formal, although they do have a place there. I see a sleevless silver top with black wid leg slacks or skinny jeans, or a silver and black dress, maybe even a black and white dress with a big chucky silver necklace and earrings. These shoes will be noticed with whatever you wear them with. Don't sit them in the closet and wait for a big event. Have fun in them. They are such fun looking shoes. If you have someone special try wrapping Saran Wrap around you and putting the shoes on for a special surprise, Bet he will love your shoes!

@monyc: Either way would look nice! And the color is very hot right now!




Now it's your turn bloggers, any ideas?

New Project

Fashion! Who doesn't love a good fashion blog with their coffee in the morning? I know, I do!
Well, I have been inspired to create my very own blog! I have created a few posts here and there on this blog and I have received incredible feedback, including invitations to exclusive sites such as Lookville :)
So I haven't gone into detail on the name yet, but I'm leaning towards Simply Moda. So far at least.
Also, if any of you have ANY suggestions on posts, titles, even the fashion its self please, please share. I would appreciate all feedback you may have ;)

I am incredibly excited for this blog.
Buenas Noches <3

I had a dream...

I was stranded in a Bolivian salt flat. I walked for miles, for days. I came to a tiny hotel completely made of salt. The hotel owner kept yelling "lamer la sal!" and I tried to explain to him that I didn't like salt. He just continued to yell at me to lick the wall of salt. Eventually his wife came in, followed by his children; all 12 of them. I continued to agrue with them "..maybe if it were sugar.." I said. I felt a tiny tug on my shirt and looked down to a tiny face "Por favor. Es todo lo que tenemos." I licked the wall and my face started to shrivel. Then I woke up in a panic..

I have no idea what this dream means..but I do know one thing, you can add Bolivia salt flats to my "Must Go" list.

Alphonse Mucha

So, I definitely just discovered this guy!! (thanks Google!) Anddddd apparently, Alphonse Mucha was brilliant at what he did! This amazing Czech artist was true to his passion and country. A true patriotic symbol who refused to "sell out." A man who stood for art and his country and proved there is no liberal or conservative artists, only artists. A man who believed patriotism for one's country didn't confine him, but freed him to travel the world!
Happy 150th birthday! You were amazing and I can't believe I NEVER knew about you! I want to go back in time and slap my art history teacher.

Luis Buñuel

“You have to begin to lose your memory, if only in bits and pieces, to realize that memory is what makes our lives. Life without memory is no life at all, just as an intelligence without the possibility of expression is not really an intelligence. Our memory is our coherence, our reason, our feeling, even our action. Without it, we are nothing.”

If you can name them both, I will love you forever :)

Odio darme cuenta de que estoy respirando y tener que respirar pensando

scratch my last post..

I GOT INTO COLLEGEEEEEEEEE!

ProActive;

In earlier posts I've made a list of To Do's to kind of give myself a kick into gear. Well, since then I've gotten pretty pro-active!
So let's review :)

1. Sign up for dance classes.
-Okay, so I haven't signed up quite yet, but I did go to an all women's fitness center and took a tour. It offers Zumba and even kickboxing! I have a one free week thing, so we shall see :)

2.Become Bilingual! :D
-I've already decided I will be continuing my spanish education in college, but until then I've gained a few resources :) I've recently picked up a copy of the Spanish for Dummies (sounds lame I know, but hey it's actually working!) It came with a CDrom to listen to dialogue. Not to mention, I've been practicing with my spanish speaking friends from South America who are definitely NOT afraid to tell me when I'm saying/pronouncing something wrong;) (Thanks you guys!) Also, a friend of my dad's is Mexican and he is giving me a few pointers and he's turned me on to Spanish television. (Do not get me started on Alejandro and Gabby from "Al diablo con los guapos" I'm still mad about that!) Along with Telenovelas comes the convenience of the Copa de Mundial!! I watch all the interviews in spanish. So I'm picking up a lot, I guess you could say.

3. College
-I called them this morning. All I need now is to call back Tuesday to see if I'm in or not :) Pray for me, pleeease.

4. Lose Weight!!!!!!!!!
-It's a working progress, but I'm still losing!

5. Travel
- I've been to Tennessee, Alabama, and Miss. since I made my To Do's, but hey! It's better than nothing. My sister and I have 100% decided to go to the WCUP 2014 in Brasil! It will be amazing, not to mention I have a friend there and friends just a bit further south in Argentinaaaa :)

6. Help.
-Okay, I haven't quite done anything to change the world yet, but I've been doing my research. Maybe, I will turn this into a blog later on...To Be Continued..

7. Broken Addictions!
-Polyvore
-Shopping
-Oreos
-Music Vids

but where the old habits are broken, new ones are made...

New Habits to Break:
-Soda
-Fingernail polish-oholic
-HULU
-Glamour
-Putting off cleaning my room, ick.
-Interviews,Tv shows, Magazines, Music in Spanish (when friends are over)

Hooray! Off to keep up the good work (:

World Cup USA

I would first and foremost like to say that I am EXTREMELY proud of team USA. Even though they were ousted today with a 2-1 finish against Ghana, I felt they played their best and represented our country beautifully. You didn't see elaborated injuries, over aggressiveness, and foul language. Has anybody else noticed all the F-bombs being dropped by the other teams? I didn't even know that word was international! Long story short, USA played with class.

My má, my sister and myself  are a lot alike in one sense...we like to feel what they feel. Whether it's book characters, movie characters or in this case athletes. We emotionally attach ourselves to the our favorite players. In this particular case Landon Donovan. We talk about this man like he's our best friend. The past two weeks have been nothing but Landon and his whole life story. Hahaha, it has gotten so bad that immediately after the lose today, I threw up my arms in defeat and exclaimed "Now Bianca's never going to take him back!" Followed by my mom's response "Oh she better! You know they were probably on the phone all week."

Obviously I got my creepiness from my mother :) JUST KIDDING! We are simply imaginative. (No, but seriously ask me anything about team Argentina..and I'll have an answer hahahaaa)

Dear Landon Donovan, you are, in fact, the man. See you in 2014.

Fun fact: My mother has a crush on Forlán on team Uruguay (he is pretty cute). Whom she hopes tears Ghana up for ridding the Cup of our TV drama that is team USA.

It's up to you now Argentina <33
