Inside the Art Institute of Chicago walls

Hi everyone. Last post was about my last trip to Chicago, which was amazing!!! I just wanted to dedicate a special post to one of my very fave stops during that week. That was the Art Institute of Chicago. I absolutely recommend you to visit this museum. I’d been to many, and this is one of the best around the World.

Of course the museum Master Piece is American Gothic by Grant Wood. I loved the message and loved the frame lol

Apart of the amazing painting collection they have, there’s a beautiful environment to enjoy over there…Of course this visit was in November, so you’ll may need to update yourself at the website to plan your visit. Right here I just can show you what I’d got to see…

20th Century furniture pieces & Deco

And a Textile and Patchwork exhibition of the 18th & 19th Century

Beautiful Quilts

 

Hope you get as much inspiration with this post as I did with my visit. I really really hope to go back 🙂

HOMEMADE CUPCAKES :D

Hello cupcakes lovers all around the world!!! I know what you’re thinking… But I’m not a baker sorry… I just wanted to join the cupcakes fever in some sort of way. That’s why I started to make my own pillow cases and pennants to decorate bedrooms, kitchens, balconies, gardens, everywhere!!! and make our tea parties more fun 🙂

These are just little examples that I used at home…

Every item is unique and totally homemade, just like what you bake at home 🙂

Life Updates

Hello everybody!!! Don’t kill me for not posting anything!!! I promise I will start brand new with all my new projects. Now I cook, and make patchwork stuff, so I have other little interests to share with you. Hope you like them 😀

What a Valentine :)

Tom likes surprises, I don’t… and he enjoys so much when I don’t know what is gonna be my gift. I promise I was waiting behind the door all excited. It didn’t come up on monday. Lazy spanish mail service ¬¬ it finally arrived next day (yesterday), and it was perfect. Of course for most of u could be just a normal LV handbag, for me is it’s a lot more, ‘cas even it isn’t what I was waiting first… I know he took his time to choose what was gonna be perfect for me. He spent an hour trying to decide between many handags and I promise he did it so well that I almost can’t believe it!!!: not too big like shopping bag and not too small… I love it

Now guys here you have my new best friend: my LV TOTALLY PM 😉

 

 

You know what Valentine…

when I say I love you I really mean it…

Today and everyday I wake up thinking about you…

I know our relation is different and that’s why I’m proud of us for getting here today, I just can’t wait to be your girl…

You know I tell you everyday, but today I want everybody knows how Trully Maddly Deeply in love with you I am…

I LOVE YOU RF more than anybody in this world, life, galaxy will…  

You’re and will always be my mate, bunny conny palmy goofy…

I’m yours***

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

This last year I lived amazing experiences and met unbelievable people… I just wanna thank all this people for what they gave me in 2010 and wish the very best for every little of you for this 2011 that just started… I said it: THE VERY BEST!!!!

HAPPY BRAND NEW 2011!!!  

2nd Quart here I GO!!!

Oh yes… I’m officially 25!!! the thing is that I was feeling 25 months ago, and I don’t know why… I just remember in Vegas everybody was asking for my ID, and once a bartender asked me how old I was (while looking at my passport) and I said 25… but Tom was there to correct me: “You’re still 24, Dummy Poodle!!!”

I think I was waiting on this day so bad to Thank all the people that had been around… I’d learnt a lot from each of you. You all are a little reason of how I am today… 

for some reason (probably sunny day in Barcelona) I feel hopefull about today, and the future… just want to thank again for Facebook messeges, SMS, calls, and all those best wishes that made me feel loved. I love you too 😀

My strike

I read this morning in a newspaper a general Strike is an exceptional situation… and I’m so glad it is

don’t take me wrong, I agree with their reasons, actually I think their reasons are my reasons…

I’m just a new graduated, and personally I don’t see any opportunity around… only obtacles or bosses saying they had to spend three years doing practices without receiving any money back… Sorry but I can’t afford that precariousness eigther… I have bills to pay!!!

Yes!!! I’m against all the people that want to take advantage of “cheap payment” students, They just piss me off…

Anyway I think destroying public property isn’t the best way… ‘cas we’re gonna have to pay it anyway…

Personally I didn’t enjoy this strike… first I had to work, but trains were working only minimum services, which means train since 6 til 9am… and I work at 2pm… yes I couldn’t help to poker face my boss when she was telling me I had to come to work

Then I went to Barcelona, but finally I didn’t have to work (thank you piquets), and also didn’t have a way to go home (triple murder!!!)   

Yes, today was really stressful for everyone… thanx God General strikes are exceptional, aren’t they?

Baby Blue

He is the reason why I wasn’t posting anything on Macchiato 😛

A week ago we were spending our last sunday together, and it was quiet, lovely and heartbreaking (as usual)… ‘cas everytime I convince myself I’m used to say goodbye, but I can’t help missing him as much as I do.

As I said an hour ago (coffee time) the worst time is to do the same way back home after leaving him at the airport… thanks God I have the best friends in the world (and a job that kept my mind busy)!!!

 

Good News***

On Monday I had a saturday night plan. We were going to a club with people from my job. Cool!!!

On Wednesday Xavi from my practice tells me about a wonderful party plan at the beach, and I say No ‘cas I already had a “rendez vous”

that afternoon, plan A got cancelled, so on Thursday I was telling Xavi I was going to the beach party

Thursday night I receive a BBM messege from Neni saying she wants to go to La Carpa… guess what!!! I said No ‘cas I already had a “rendez vous”

This morning I call Xavi, and he says he doesn’t have a car so he has to go at 3pm with his friends, can’t wait til I get out of work!!!

So I sent a BBM messege to Neni saying Carpa or Home??? Of ourse she said Carpa. Then, some hours ago, she said “Plan change!!! we’re haging out by Terrassa”… While I was “poker facing” she finally said magical question: D’ u feel like comin’??? I thought Thanx God I have a choise!!! No baby I don’t feel like going anywhere, I’m so tired to get decent to be in public!!! I promised I was going with her to the beach tomorrow, and I can’t wait!!! But tonight I need a break!!!

After that glorious Freedom moment I could chat with Tom on Skype and guess what??? yes!!! He already booked his flight!!! 🙂
