5 Tips to Stay Happy No Matter the Weather

To say that it has been rainy in Mexico City is an understatement. The weather lately has made days cloudy and dark even when it's not raining that makes me wonder if it's really summer. I'm a person that loves this kind of weather, because it makes the plants and trees look beautiful! 

However, after several days of little or no sun, I found myself feeling tired and without energy. Here are 5 useful tips to avoid feeling blue and stay positive! Actually, I think these apply to our everyday lives, but are especially useful when we're not feeling that great.

Anardana Nails - The Wedding look =)

Hey guys! Remember my Anardana by NARS nail post? Well, here's the complete look I wore that day. Keep reading for more details.

Inspirational Quote: How to make your dreams come true

As you guys already know, I'm obsessed with inspirational quotes! I just love them, they make my day a little brighter and remind me that, no matter what, things can always get better.

On wishing, hoping and dreaming

I tend to be the kind of person that tries hoping for the best, even when it seems pointless. Like, for example, last week when my car broke down. Sometimes, my mom and boyfriend lose their patience because they think I'm daydreaming too much or have lost my mind. I, on the other hand, think that there's no other way I could live. We already know that the worst can happen, so why not hope for the best? Why not believe that things can be ok even if it seems impossible? It has worked for me so far. =)

Special Occasions... Weddings and whatnot

Every now and then, we find ourselves being a part of social events that are different to what we're normally used to. They require a certain etiquette and behaviour to your usual social routine. During these events, you talk to people you haven't seen in ages, and what's most important: you have to step outside of your comfort zone in order to share this time with 'new people'. What does this have to do with anything? It makes you understand just how unique every person in the world is.

Beauty Bit: Nail Polish and Seche Vite!

As I wrote on the About Me section of my blog, one of the things that interests me is beauty. If you follow me on Twitter or Pinterest, you probably already know how obsessed I am with Anardana by NARS. I was looking for the perfect pink nail polish and I'm glad to report I found it!!!

Friendships: The Joy!

They say that a woman's friends are the siblings she chose to have in life. I am an only child, so for me, this has been more than true. Thanks to my friends I have been shaped into the person that I am today. I believe that the people who surround us are the ones who help build you up.

Why exercise? Is it really THAT important?

Well, a while ago I used to write about my running routine. The reason why I stopped writing about that is because I stopped running as frequently. My job schedule got crazy and I postponed what seemed easier at the moment: exercise. However, I learned that this wasn't my smartest move. Now, I'm happy to report I'm back on track. =)

Guidance: A Confession

I have recently learned that I'm a very proud person. It's real hard for me to accept when I need help. I might be drowning, feeling the world caves in on me... and yet I resist the idea of asking for help. Has that ever happened to you? I guess it's equally frustrating to be the one in need of help and the one offering help to someone who won't accept it. So, this would be a confession of what it's like for me to ask for guidance. 

Despair

The world collapses around you. Air seems to fight it's way into your lungs yet you still feel breathless. Colors turn opaque and you feel every ounce of faith you have left slowly evaporate and turn to nothingness. "Why? Why would this happen to me?" is all you can think about. Meanwhile, you choose to torture yourself by replaying in your head what happened over and over, regretting what you should have done or said. 

Obstacles

Hey there!

Well... yeah... I've been away for a loooooong time. My life went through some quite fun and unexpected changes. Yes, I finally changed jobs! It was hard at first but a very good thing in the end... and now, after a very long absence, I've decided to start writing again! Why was I away? I guess my fears chased me all the way into my blog! Well... those days of being afraid of people reading what I have to say are over. =) Welcome back!
