Long Time no see..

Be ready for a long post...

Hi! It's been a long time.. hopefully I'm inspired enough to make this interesting and not just a list of things that have been happening in my life lately..

I quit Insanity for now, I figured I was more lazy than insane and I was doing a bunch of exercise and dealing with a bunch of other things to feel bad about it. In the about 10/15 days I did it I gotta say my abs got way more flat and better in general. I might start it over, if i have the energy..

I performed.. here's the video of that: 

 

oh jeez awfull snapshot!

That show turned out quite well, We got booked to do another one, plus a birthday party show, plus we're gonna do our own remake of the Flashdance movie. I could not be more excited about this since Flashdance is one of my favorite dance movies :) . I got assigned all 4 of the subjects I signed for at university so I'm gonna be dancing a lot plus practicing for Flashdance and maybe occasionally doing insanity since we wanna have killer bodies for that show.. 

I made my first appearance in a magazine, pretty excited about that also :) 

I'm the one with the umbrella

And I'm teaching a couple classes in my hometown soon, that's a big deal for me since I love what I do but I haven't got a chance to teach in around 5-6 years.. I'm sure I'll be nervous but hopefully they'll like it and I'll be able to pass on some knowledge.
Everything dance-wise seems to be lining up, I even fear saying that out loud in case things start going to shit again, it seems as if I'm finally getting good things on this area of my life. 

I haven't been intimate with anybody for quite a while now. I know I shouldn't complain since people go without that for way longer than me and everything else is going well.. Still my mind is starting to drive me crazy over this matter. I have decided a while ago that I don't want to sleep around anymore, it leaves me with a feeling of emptyness that I didn't got  before but once I started getting it, it never went away and It makes it all less enjoyable, I actually end up feeling worse than I was before. Since I have decided to not sleep around anymore, I have failed to resist the temptation a couple times, both to find myself with this emptyness feeling which reassured me my original decision was the right one.
And yes, I know women don't usually talk like this, as women have a harder time to de-associate love from lust and all of that.. I guess I'm weird like that. Thanks Joey!

In my over analyzing, over thinking, over calculating, over worrying, over wondering and just driving myself nuts.. I found this blog: http://fortydaysofdating.com  
It's a story of a girl and a guy that are best friends and after being tired and exhausted of seeing their relationships fail, they experiment seeing each other on a Date type of thing, every day for 40 days. It's pretty interesting.. And since I have a best friend, with whom I lived for 2 years, we share our frustrations on the love life and everything else.. It hits a nerve, as at some point in our friendship we both have wondered how come nothing ever happened between us, I guess there's just no chemistry, or if there is we have blocked it long enough to make it dissapear.  Of course my over analyzing mind made me eat that blog up in 2 days and heavily wonder if i have more feelings for my best friend, appart from friendship, obviously. 
To be honest, I don't think i do, i think i'm just hunger for love and hugs and cuddles and feeling loved in general. So i see things where there is nothing, I need to calm down and stop freaking myself out. It's like what I said to a friend the other day "I feel like I'm a hungry person in the middle of the dessert, I see someone walk by and I see a roasted chicken instead of a person.. because I'm so hungry" Oh well, this too shall pass.

We can't have it all, I have my dancing on full mode on rightnow, expecting my love life to be fixed rightnow would be asking too much.

Anyways, these are the news.. I'll be back sooner rather than later, I promise. In the meantime here's a good quote I found:

One topic at a time: Social life

Hey everyone! It's definetely been longer than i had planned to... Oh well, I'm a procastinator at its finest and now that it's school break, I have nothing forcing me stop :P. Speaking of procastination, I found something pretty cool.. It's a google chrome app, I use it on Mozilla Firefox cuz i prefer it as a browser but still it's helping me get some things done off my "to do list" : http://tomorrow.do/ Basically you create a to do list but are able to move things for tomorrow lol for procastinators like me i think it's pretty great. And when you see on your do (tomorrow) list a list of things you wanna blog about, well then it's time to get here and write it all down!

On the socializing department: July9 was a holiday here (our independence day) so that meant I worked monday, got tuesday off and then went back to work for the rest of the week. Monday was also the last day in B.A for one of my closest Californian friends.. so off we went to his farewell party.. I gotta say it's not like I haven't been out completely lately, I do go to my friend's bar for a drink or something like that like once a week but to be out on a HUGE pubcrawl with a bunch of friends (like 15) that I haven't seen in months and THEN hit a disco.. well that was something!! I really missed crazy nights like that, dance till you drop jaja find everything funny, hug your friends a million times. 

 That was the happy part of it, but then it came the sad part of the night, that was letting go of a really good friend. On tuesday he went back to Cali after living here for 3 years. The amount of sick crazy memories we have i can not even begin to explain LOL, so many things.. and just hugging him knowing we wont see each other in probably a really long time (if not ever again =/) That was really tough. To be honest, I've seen many friends come and go and sometimes go and never return, it's something that's bound to happen when your friends are not from the same place you are from. It happened to me to find just the best friend in the world, share everything but know she's only here for an internship and once that ends I'll never see her again. Happened many times, i thought i was sort of used to it and see this one going wouldn't affect me so much.. 

Well I was wrong, It was tough on me and I was pretty sad, you know just bummed out for a while. It passed, I'm gonna miss my friend but i came to terms with it and of course I wish him the best. I guess it's just one extra reason to keep attempting to save and go to the u.s for a long vacation (I keep telling myself this.. "just another reason to visit X place" I got so many reasons and list of places by now it's starting to get ubberly ridiculous). So that was day 1 of partying like a madwoman!

Day 2: We went ladies night style with a Colombian friend I haven't seen in like 3 months.. She's leaving for vacations to colombia soon so we did the crawling through bars and hit the hip hop club YES!!! It was great, we laughed a lot, we didn't drink sooo much, we had fun making fun of guys (specially me) jajaja It got us a pretty nice ego boost :) 

 And that was it for the socializing aspect of my life, I know I can't afford to go out hardcore like that as often as i used to and it's probably fine because going out like that throws me off on many other things (like diet and exercise jajajaja yeap) but it was fun :) and i do hope i get to do it a bit more often than i did in the past couple of months :)

That's it for this blog.. Trying to take it one topic at a time,so it's not tooooo long. Sometimes nothing feels better and more comforting than a good hug from a good friend. 

 

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! :)
