my heart's desire

I have already ordered a copy

and I got this one on pdf (though I would love to have the book)

"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains. Never was this truth more plain than during the recent attacks at Netherfield Park in which the household of eighteen was slaughtered and consumed by a horde of the living dead"

just looking

So, while I'm cleaning my room, preparing my outfit and getting ready to go, Mona just....

movies

It seems that my excessive happines was due to a sugar overdose. Originally, I was happy but sugar did the rest, ho ho.
Apart from decorating my house and reading I've been going to the movies.

First a friend and I went to watch Inglorious Basterds. Lots of friends were talking about it so I felt curious. Pitt's accent is magnificent. The picture was better than what I expected but certain things reminded me other movies, not from Tarantino. Besides,I kept looking from resemblances between the German actors and American actors. I love the music. My favorite character: Hans Landa.

Yesterday, I went to watch Disgrace with another friend. This movie is based upon a book with the same name by J. M. Coetzee. I've read the book a couple of years ago and I really liked it. There were certains scenes, my favorites, that I still remember perfectly. Tough, Malkovich plays his part great, the story on the screen didn't seduce me as the story on paper. Obviously, the charcters were completely different inside my mind and all. On screen the story is fragmented and I don't know if it is easy to follow. The landscape is really beautiful and very well portrayed. In the end, I didn't like it.

:)

Yesterday/Today I woke up feeling tremendously happy. No reason, apparentaly.

It didn't matter that I had to present two exams and work on my dissertation. I was happy. Plain happiness.

It Smells like Xmas

As the song says, I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes. Xmas is all around me....

Xmas decorations started. Tomorrow we'll go and buy the lights and other supplements that we need to finish this decorative task. Happiness. I love my house full of lights and the Xmas tree and all :)

This song comes from one of my favorite Xmas movies: Love Actually (apart from this hillarious song a person can find, also, Hugh Grant dancing--this movie has a lot to offer, haha)

Barbie's Car

Finding a new car starts to be a pain in the ass. Honestly I don't want one but it is kind of necessary in a big city like mine. I'd like to drive on my bicycle all day, but probably I'd be killed hit by a car in less than a minute.. drivers don't respect other drivers, iuk!

What I really want? To be a Barbie Girl once more!

Monalisa's getting ready for the cold

She is getting ready for this harsh weather

oh, love, oh, love!

So I finally went and watch 500 Days of Summer. It is this classic chick flick that I love, where the male character is the cutest and silliest young man in the world. The thing is that in real life, these guys are my type: I always go for the cute guys never for the rude, dangerous type. Never.
I was wondering if tv programs have influenced my likes, or they just reflect it. For example, the following are my favorite t.v characters (well, the ones I can think of at this moment)

1. Cory Matthews from a tv program Boy Meets World. He was the cute, naïve, honest boy, I would chose him over Shun

2. Seth Cohen from The OC. Please, this is a very clear example. The geek, cute, goofey guy. Intelligent and ironic who dresses cute. I would never chose Luke or Ryan

3. Henry Something from Dawson’s Creek. He was so obsessed with Jen. Again, geek and cute. Percy, I’ll never go for him, even if he looks like Joshua Jackson

4. Aidan from Sex and the City. I’ll never forgive Carry from cheating on him. He was so caring, nice, noble and cute

5. Joo Goon Pyo from Boys Before Flowers. Although he is rich and treats people awfully—he is the cutest person and is always caring for his beloved one. He will do everything for love. He finds it hard to show his feelings but that doesn’t keep him from being sweet. He is silly, intelligent.. PERFECT haha

I feel famous

It turns out that I was interviewed due to my participation at the Russian event I told you about. I had to dresses properly and all because my pic was to be taken. I felt so important. Anyways, I think it’s cool that the congress gets diffusion so next year more people gets involved. Autographs after the publication, haha

outfits outfits EXTRA

Saturday: a lecture and drinks with friends.
I was wearing a pink cardigan too, but I couldn't find it for the pic

I feel that my previous post sounded like I was going to show hundreds of outfits and I just posted two, so here are three more. Have a nice weekend

This is my The Killers concert outfit

movies with a friend

today, something casual for an indoors day

outfits outfits

I'm not sure why I am awake at this time BUT, as I am here, let me show you some outfits :)


I'm really into wearing tights. I don't know, somehow I've got tired of wearing jeans, yeah, yeah, they are so practical and comfortable but, naaa, I want something different. I still don't have too many skirts and dresses, but I'm working on it.

this was taken at night, my dress has a lot of wrinkles, hey, it is made of linen, such a delicate fabric. But the color is so cool.

It looks as if I were mad but I am not, lately I've been doing funny faces in front of the camara, no matter how hard I try to avoid it.

capricho 2

and this one

I want to see this movie and I want it NOW

weekend at San Luis Potosi

I just came back from my trip to San Luis Potosí. It was a complete success, I had a lot of fun and I won first place, claps, claps, please.

I've never gone to San Luis before. It is a beautiful place, with a downtown very similar to the one in my city. But the people its completely different: at San Luis they're so kind and gentle. The streets are quiet and clean. Also, there are these corridors where you can walk and walk.

The wheather was good, a bit chilli but fine. The food was great. And I got the chance to get to know other students and teachers. Also I visited an old house, so beautiful: just one floor and all the rooms connected surrounding the central yard. Beautiful
