| Christmas 2014 |

I'm tired and I don't feel like writing or doing something because this past 3 days I have been like crazy preparing everything for Christmas.
First, I decided to make a 4 layer naked cake, and then I felt like doing cookies for everyone in my family, and it sounds not so hard but my gosh, it was stressful and painful (my heels know about that).
Those cookies were a lot of work, but it was fine because when I gave it to my family they were happy and they compliment me and who doesn't like compliments, even if you think you don't like them, you do. 

I want to show you the "naked cake" that wasn't that naked, but who cares because that cream cheese frosting turned out amazing!
I'm in love with simple cakes, I find them way more pretty than those super decorated fondant cakes, no, they're not for me at all.
At first I was only going to frost the outside of the cake by the spreads of the sides, but it didn't turn out right, so I made more frosting to cover it like a normal cake but I didn't like it... so then my brother saw what I was trying to do, and he help me to scrape the sides and leave it a little bit more naked, I guess, so thanks brother.

My older brother also came to visit, he wasn't supposed to, but at the end he did, it was great, I bet he had a great time because he, my other brother and my dad had a really happy hour at 4:00 AM and they were talking about life, with so much happiness on their words!
Here's a picture of him and I, oh and my other sibling in the back. The funny thing is that I didn't consume any alcohol (because the tiny little gulps that the aunties give you mean nothing, okay) but I'm still looking loaded. Anyways, I'm sharing it with you because I like to embarrass myself.

I hope you had a great Christmas and if you don't celebrated, that's sad.
See you later!

Dear Life || 2

I just happened to read my last and actually first Dear Life, and I noticed that every time I attend to write one of these, I'm on my period. Probably periods put me in a thoughtful mood.
So here I am, out of the shower at night because it supposed that today was a gym day but I wasn't feeling it.
I wake up at 7:30 am and decided that I was not doing it, then sleep again until 12 something and started cleaning my room and being actually productive, but you know, period cramps, so I took some pills and I sleep agaiiin until 3 pm..... not so proud of that.

The highlight of my day was this little human. I'm not a kid person at all, but this child (who happens to be my nephew) melts my heart, he is a blessed kiddo. 
I'm eternally happy because he lay down on my chest, I hugged him and in a matter of seconds, literally, just in seconds, he felt asleep. (Insert heart eyes emoji here because that's how I'm felling)

You know what, I should be embarrassed of spending my winter vacations on my house all day, but I enjoy it like you can't imagine. I love being in my pyjamas all day and doing pretty much nothing.
Nothing is more like thinking about my blog, the one that you are reading in this moment, and in my "cake business" and in boys I guess, but who really cares about them, they're nasty, right?
Specially now that the holidays are arriving, me and my mom are looking forward to the weekend to rent some Christmas movies because that's what we basic people do. 

I also did this thing called "Brainstorming". I'm sure most of you know what it is, but if you don't, well you're hella dumb... Joking, basically you set a timer, in my case I set up 10 minutes, and in those minutes I have to write any ideas that come throw my mind, without carrying if they're stupid, because that's the beauty of it, letting your creativity flow, no obstacles engaged.
I loved it, and I'm definitely doing this more frequently.

Anyways, that was my day.
Here I leave you this song that you probably have already heard, but anyways its good and when I was watching the movie I almost cried because if you have read the books you know that feelings like to shine:

Putting a Christmas tree.

Let me start by telling you that I love everything Christmas related, so yes, I love putting the Christmas tree. The thing is that this year my house will not have any Christmas decorations because we are kind of moving and moms tend to be annoying sometimes and mine says that she doesn't wants to deal with packing the Christmas stuff too.
So here we are, putting my aunt Christmas Tree because she is out of town and she ask us to do this favour for her, but actually, she is doing me the favour...


I just fell in love with her tree, because look at it, it has snow, fake, but it looks great.
It was a great evening with my mom thought, we listened Christmas songs while putting it, because we are that cliche.

Creativity

For me, creativity is a powerful word. It means that your brain is doing the right thing, I guess.
Everybody born with this ability, and everybody decide what to do with it.
I decided that I want to use it, I want to explode it, and I want to developed it so much that people remember me because of what I create.
It's hard, scary, and sometimes I find myself worried because of the fear of not creating.
That's a huge reason why I started this blog, I want to see what my imagination is capable of.

I love creative people, they put a smile on my face, I love how they take their time to come up with something amazing, with something inspiring. I love them so much that one day I hope to be surrounded by them, to have the opportunity to live with someone like that, to fall in love with someone with a priceless brain.

I find little acts of creativeness the most beautiful. For example: an ordinary post about anything but with a message, or a meaning, or maybe a video that is so well made because you can see the effort that has been put in it, not how much money they had spent on a camera or an editing program, but the thing they're trying to gift. Or maybe that drawing that your classmate made in the table with his not special at all pencil, the paints of a kid in the walls which makes moms get really mad but oh, the kid was full with creativity that he felt the necessity to trace it somewhere, that author that could write about how a guy brushing his teeth and you'd still be amazed because of his skills. Or just that stuff you saw, or heard, and made you think that you never could come up with such a fascinating idea.

Talented and creative people, please never die, we need you here.
