Day 08 - A Song That You Know All The Words To



Grupo Restrito - "Sentada Na Lua"


This song has "Miss Indepent"'s rythm but, with these lyrics (in Portuguese), it became so much better. I fell in love with it from the first time I listened to it and the lyrics turned out to be really easy to learn. Now, I know it all by heart. And it's the perfect song to listen to when you are driving in your car to the beach, with the windows open, during Summertime. I tried it and I loved it. You should do it too!

Day 07 - A Song That Reminds You Of A Certain Event



Mc Creu - "Dança do Creu"

This song reminds me of last Carnival in Sesimbra, where me and my friends spent four unforgetable nights together. During those days, we mainly listened to Brazilian music wherever we went out and this one was a favorite to dance to. And this song really marked our last night there, at a disco called Gliese, where we raged and partied our asses off while we reached the fifth level of ass shaking in this song ahahah

Day 06 - A Song That Reminds You Of Somewhere



Katy Perry - "California Gurls" feat. Snoop Dog


This song brings me amazing memories from last Summer. Me and my friends used to listen to it a lot on our way to the beach of California in Sesimbra, where we spent some days together. And this song also makes me want Summer to come as soon as possible! Besides, I love Katy and the video is g e n i o u s!

Day 05 - A Song That Reminds You Of Someone



Jordin Sparks - "Walking On Snow"


This one is specially dedicated to my best friend Z., who I love so much. He showed me this song and he is the reason why I love it so much. So many good memories :)

Day 04 - A Song That Makes You Sad



Rebecca Black - "Friday"


Everything about this song makes me sad and is just sad. The video. The lyrics. The "rapper" in the car. Even the way she says "Friday" makes me want Monday to come as soon as possible.

Day 03 - A Song That Makes You Happy

And they are all sooo cute.

Day 02 - Your Least Favorite Song



Yolanda Be Cool Vrs DCup - "We No Speak Americano"




Inna - "Hot"

I didn't know which one of these two songs I should choose. So I chose both.
I feel like cutting my wrists everytime I listen to these songs.
They are just bad. Really bad. And f*** annoying.

Day 01 - Your Favorite Song



Coldcut - "True Skool"

I started going out when I was 14 years-old and I still remember the feeling I got when this specific song started playing at the disco. I think it is my favorite song because it gathers my favorite types of music, it's an all in one. It's not that much known around the world but, still, it's really worth listening. It owns a very special place in my heart because nowadays I still get the same exact feeling when it starts playing in my iPod as I did when I was a young teen. I love this song and I always will, and I hope you like it as much as I do.

Good morning!

Teens, WAKE UP! It's already half past nine and the sun is shining!

What a day I had yesterday! I kicked off my day by having a morning coffee with my friend A. at Starbucks (you can visit his blog HERE), then I had to go to a class during lunch break (it sucked). When the class was over, I had a late lunch with one of my best friends J. and, when we were ready, me, her and other three friends of ours went to Parque das Nações to assign for a job in a Human Research Department that's located down there.
After that I met my mother at El Corte Inglés for a fashion show where they were presenting the best items for this Spring/Summer from the brands that are sold down there. It was great! I loved some the bikinis and the collection from Gant is amazing!
Then, I had dinner at my friend's C. house and we both went to Music Box with so many other friends of ours to watch the launching of the EP of Asterisco Cardinal Bomba Caveira.



They were amazing! And one of the guitar players is one good friend of mine. I was right on the front row and I had so much fun! After that I came home, I was so exhausted.

Today is going to be a busy day too. This morning I'm going to the Finances so I have a method of payment for the job that I assigned for yesterday and that starts today's afternoon. Then I have to go to classes. After that, me and my friends are going to work. Basically, we just need to distribute chocolates within some enterprises between five and nine p.m. How though of a job is that? Not at all. Working with my friends is going to be so much fun, I'm so excited!

Tomorrow morning I am going to interview Carolina Flores from last minute dreams. I couldn't be more thrilled about it and I know it's going to be an amazing experience. And I promise to post the interview here til Sunday.

Have an awesome day!
xx

Home Sweet Home ♥

Coming back home was not an easy task for me. Getting my life back together turned out to be harder than what I thought it would be. During the past three weeks I lost track of how many doctors I've seen (the last time I saw them was right before summer started). I have a massive amount of stuff that I need to do for Uni and there are still many people that I want to see. Getting all my stuff done has definitely been a tough job.

But coming back home has been an amazing journey. Going to class and seeing those familiar faces again couldn't be more comforting. Coming home, exhausted after Uni, and having an home made meal ready to be eaten, never felt like it did before. Meeting my friends everyday makes me realize how the last six months didn't affect our friendship at all. Waking up in my own comfy bed is the best feeling in the world. And I actually missed being awaken by my parents every morning with the sound of the shower and their voices right in front of my bedroom.

And, for my surprise, my parents decided to operate some big changes in my bedroom after Christmas, while I was still in Madrid, during my period of exams. When I got here my walls were freshly painted (my bedroom smelled like brand-new), I had a chariot ready to be filled with my favorite clothes has an element of decoration and I had a huge space between my shelves where I now have my make-up and jewelry. But there's still a lot to be done. I need to find new lamps, mirrors and some new decoration. My bedroom is still a little empty. But I'm sure that a trip to IKEA is going to solve my "bedroom problem".

I'M BACK! And I'm not going anywhere else this time.

GOOD MORNING TEENS! How is everybody doing? Good, I hope. An amazing and busy week is about to get started and I couldn't be more excited about it!

First of all, I have to say I'M SO SORRY for disappearing after coming back to Portugal. My first three weeks here were absolutely insane and I didn't have time for posting. Getting my life back on track was not an easy task but I made it! Everything is much more calm now and I have time to do one of the things that I love the most: blogging.

Since I got here, I had the chance to see almost everyone that I haven't seen in such a long time, I had a crazy Carnival (where I had the chance to dress up as a cowgirl, a "Black Swan" ballet dancer and a 10 year-old kid), I got back to classes in my Uni (which has been amazing because now I have classes with some of my best friends), I had a couple of family dinners, I did a photo shoot with my cousin, met some friends for coffee and watched some soccer matches from my beloved team Benfica. So, this is why I haven't posted anything lately and I'm so sorry for it and I missed it a lot. But now I'm here and I promise I'm not going anywhere this time.

And this blog is about to improve a lot and it's about to get even cooler than what it was before. I have been thinking about things that I want to start posting/writing here and I have been having many great ideas. So, from now on, you can expect so much more from here and so much more amazing stuff than you were expecting before. Not only will I continue posting songs, photos, fashion and urban stuff like I did before, I'll start posting interviews to other bloggers, articles, event covers, recipes, some of my favorite things and so much more. And everything (almost) on a daily basis!!

Teens, I'm so happy to be back and to have the chance to post again. I hope that my blog doesn't let you down and I hope you keep visiting my "little corner of dazzling stuff" as much as you did before. Thanks for reading this and I hope you have an incredible week!

xoxo
