A day in the life of or.. Ok maybe a few days - Long post-

Hello my friends!
I've been meaning to post things here for days but by the time I came home from university I found myself just too tired and sleepy..

It's been pretty awesome days since Wednesday night right up until now, days filled with dancing, sweet moments, and the cherry on the cake was yesterday when while I was at work a friend texted me to tell me he and his girlfriend couldn't make it to a Music Festival so he was willing to give me their tickets WHAA?? o.O So awesome!.

It was the Movistar music free festival, tickets were free if you were one of their clients, else it was pretty much impossible to get a ticket. I wanted to go for a long time but not having found a soul that would get me a ticket i pretty much settled with the idea that I wouldn't be able to attend and just forgot about it.
The show was at the Buenos Aires Planetarium and it consisted of 3 bands: 

  • "Of monsters and men" which is an indie band from Island (I missed their performance so I don't know much more than that) 

  • "Major Lazer" which is a group of djs really, they fusion electronic house music with dancehall and reggae. DJ Jillionare is one of their permanent staff and the group was formed by the producers of DIPLO. I never heard of this group of people either (at least not by name) but a very good friend of mine (and the best electronic/dubstep DJ in this beautiful city) recommended them to me so.. yea. They were amazing! It was a party outdoors, with the Planetarium shinning bright as the background, dancers, confetti, you name it.. So cool. 

 
here is Diplo who's got inside a hamster's ball and rolled all over the crowd LOL

And then last but not least, the reason why I wanted to get tickets on the first place: FRANZ FERDINAND! I saw them live back in 2009 and they BLEW MY MIND. And now, I didn't catch up with them over the years so some songs I didn't know well to sing along.. but they're just freaking awesome. Brilliant show, since my friend gave me his 2 tickets I was able to enjoy it with a dear friend with whom I went to Franz Ferdinand's show back in 09 (We're making it a tradition to always see them live together :P )

All in all, yesterday I went to work, then to school to enjoy my ballet class :) and then off to a music fest! Boy I haven't been in one for at least a year.. My legs and back where crying between dancing and standing on my feet with my giant dance bag lol but it was so worth it :) 
And that is just one day :P I said on the title "Few"
Well long story short:  Wednesday I had a very "one on one" ballet/physical training class that was so demanding I almost break down and cry in front of the teacher. He keeps pushing me to the limit and I know it's good and it means I have "wood" as they say, else he wouldn't bother.. But it still makes you feel frustrated to be corrected on many many things when you're this age and have been dancing for so long. He said then that due to my high level he expects more out of me than any other girl in the class so I guess I need to suck it up and get to an even higher level of dancing with his advices :) To that followed 2 Lyrical Jazz dance classes which were pretty cathartic and awesome and by night well, I had a goodnight sleep :)
Thursday went by sleepy and my philosophy class sounded pretty endless but I made it through, one of my best friends owns a bar (cool right? Free drinks anyone? :P) so after class (9pm) I went have dinner with him and my roommate there :) We had a chicken sandwich that was very agreeing to my diet (seems like the chef knew I need to eat healthy), some beers cuz I couldn't help it and just you know, enjoy the company of friends or how I say my chosen Family :). My roommate got tipsy and it was hilarious. It was a blast. 
Friday: Well all I said earlier, the show and all that. 
Saturday: Today. Procastination. Should be working on a paper for uni but I'm here instead. I made the most awesome and easiest Argentinian Cake for a friend. Sitting on the fridge so it cools down as we speak. I'm gonna post the recipe of it on another post, seriously anybody can do this cake and anybody would LOVE IT. And that is all.

Thank you so much to anyone that reads me :) I got nothing else to say.. seems like luck has been on my side for the past days. I hope it continues to be like this, it's time to kick negativity out! :)
