Minimalist

Lately, everything in my space has been a little too much for me. Everything seems a little too big, a little to cluttered and I just feel like having the minimum at this time will be much, much better.

A clean slate makes everything easier. Cleaning, decorating and even is a better sight.

Here I leave you with some inspiration:

January Diary 2014

After being lost for about a month, things have been pretty great.

I have had awesome experiences both in my personal life and in my work life. People has come and gone, leaving great opportunities for me to learn and grow and apply the knowledge for better. 

Somethings I've learned from them: 

1) Sometimes words don't have an actual meaning. Cause they don't and that is how it is. 

2) If you want something, don't wait for it to fall from the sky, an action is better than just sitting around waiting, it will lead you to the result you actually want. 

3) Things happen for a reason, it could be for better or worse, but it in the end, everything falls into place. 

4) Family is the most important thing in life. They are your support system at all time 24/7 all 360 days of the year with no holidays in between. 

5) Some friends become family. See point 4)

6) Actions say more than words do. 

7) You have to be yourself. At every moment, every time, no matter who you meet. They either love you or hate you, keep the ones who do love you. 

I'd make a 10 thing list, but for the moment, 3 are missing, which will need a review before posting! sometimes putting yourself out there is no better, but it may help. (I'll make an update later) 

January was a great month, a great learning experience and a great time. I hope the rest of the year is as good and as fruitful. 

here a few of my favorite things. 

 

Have a nice Sunday everyone!

Happy New Year!

It's 2013 you guys! It's been very nice to spend the holidays with my family and have the time to do my own things, like reading, writing and just enjoying some little me time. 

The majority of people tend to make their resolutions for the year to come. I prefer not to because somethings may not go as planned and, being honest, sometimes I just tend to go with the flow of things that are occurring at the time. But of one thing I am certain, I want this year to be a good one in terms of being committed to what ever I will find myself doing. Of course there will be some challenges, but there is nothing impossible if you just believe that you are going to be able to achieve it. 

I wish, with all my heart, that this year, all of you can accomplish your goals, make some of your dreams come true and to be at the top of your game every time! Remember, failure gives you an experience, just try and try till you make it! 

Favorite Quote right now: 

"Good, Better, Best. Never let it rest, till your good gets better, and your better best"

I don't know the author, I just remember that we were told this one at school by one of our literature teachers, and it stuck in my mind. 

Have an awesome 2013!

Agenda: Crazy Student

Hey Everyone!

I am a crazy student when it comes to organize everything and wanting to know what to do with my time. With all the tasks and exams and tests and presentations it always comes in handy to have an agenda that will make you have everything sorted out. 

For this year, I've bought one really nice and it was cheap and I just love it. It was hand made and is covered in fabric. A very original one and a very representative style from the Peruvian Highlands. It has a complete page for a day and goes from January to December. 

The academic year here starts on March and ends the first days of December. In University we have two semesters, one starting the month mentioned at the beginning (March) and the other semester beginning on August (that was quite a representation haha) 

I buy an agenda every year! I just can't live without one because I'm pretty sure I will miss out on a lot of things to do. I might not even show up to a TEST! which would be a tragedy. I actually don't get how some people remember everything they have to do without one..or maybe they just don't...huh? well this is the current one I'm using and I feel it's so good and pretty. It is cushioned even! 

It's small and great to throw in your purse and have it with you all day. Normally I will write in it with a blue or black pen, I am really weird about that but what I like to do is to use highlighters when I need to mark the things I have already done for the day (as you may see in some of the pages in blue highlighter). 

Tell me if you'd like me to do some post about my University life experience or else related with my career and such! I would be pleased to answer and share my experiences with you guys! 

xo,
