"I turn my camera on, I cut my fingers on the way; Y'made me untouchable for life"


You can't get rid of Starbucks as much as you try.

I admit that this has not been the best Christmas holiday I've ever lived. Too many things broken and too big pieces of my heart getting lost have overshadowed the jolly old time of the year.

But then I got to spend some time with my closest friends and with some amazing girls I hadn't seen in so long (too long) and with whom I forgot how well I get along with, and then... well then I think that maybe there is a twinkle at the end of the tunnel after all. Hope dies last and so on.

You lose some, you win some, I guess. Thank you to the people who gave free hugs, offered smiles and gingerbread cookies (you know you are. and if you don't, just remind me to hug you a lot when I see you next time) and helped me smile for real for the first time in what feels like ages. I might start doing that a lot more often from now on.

Best hair clip ever, right?


Laura (who is at school abroad but who came back to visit for Christmas and I am glad she did!) and Mada.


Livia and Dana being too photogenic ;P





Dana was a little Santa helper. Roxana (who I had not seen in too long a time) joined in my love for black. Great minds think alike!





Dana's puppy, Fitzy, and I under the tree waiting for Santa to see how good girls we've been all year long.











Livia and I bonded over our love for wine and Bailey's and white tights ;)





I was the victim of a Snuggle Attack.








Yeah, I know, I have gorgeous friends :D


I will not deny the fact that I was a little bit drunk by the time this photo was taken, ahem.

Song of the Day: Spoon - I Turn My Camera On

"Buddy the Elf here! What's your favorite color?"


Colateral victims of the ol' Tree Decorating Morning at my house. Luckily, the rest of the tree globes are safe and in their place on the jolly tree :)

Merry Christmas everyone! Hope it finds you surrounded by the ones you love and the things you like and I hope Santa did a good job this year and left you the perfect Christmas gift under the tree.

And, to end this post, lets all remember the words of Buddy the Elf: "The best way to spread Christmas Cheer, is singing loud for all to hear". I hope you're singing, because that's all I'm planning to do these days ;D

"Outfit; Give us this day, our daily dose of faux affliction "

There are some days that are not as good as they should be. So thanks to sweet boys who blush when you offer them chocolates that manage to turn those around, even if just for a little while :)

Happy Almost-Christmas!

Song of the Day: The Cab - I'll Run

"It's all for show, but that's all right. That's not why I love this time of year"

True to my word, the only thing I have been doing these past couple of days is watch a ridiculous amount of movies and Firefly, eat really expensive chocolates, sleep and sing along to Christmas carols and Panic at the Disco's Live In Chicago dvd.

Oh, free time, how I have missed thee :))

Starting with tomorrow I will get my ass into gear. Until then, here is a bandwidth killing photo post. Random photos I have saved from random places on the internet. Photos that make me smile, that inspire, that are beautiful or that are just simply photos. Enjoy!

Best friends always make me smile.























Keira crush still going strong.











Beautiful 'couples'.





I have been known to go through all of these.


XL sweaters as dresses are my new love.
