Saturday Day Date with Deni!!=)

Salut les amies!!

It doesn´t happen very often that my boyfriend and I have the chance to spend some quality time together. I mean, we live together (Thanks God!) and we see each other mostly every day but we both work a lot- normally with opposite shifts- and every once in a while he goes back home at Fribourg (1h 1/2 away) to see his family for a few days. If not there is always something else to do: me with my thesis, him with his studies or simply when we finally have a day off either of us if not both, feels to tired to do really anything.

Luckily for us every once in a while we have the chance to breath and let go ourselves a little bit. This Saturday we went out for lunch down town and had a banana split next to the Lac Léman (Geneva Lake) at the Jardin Anglais.

The weather was glorious

Out and About...Genève

 I Love to take random pictures when  I walk around...wish I actually had more talent =)

Liebster Blog Award

Hello!

I was nominated by I am piscis to do this tag for the Liebster Blog Award. This award is given to new blogguers with less than 200 hundreds subscribers. According to what I am Pisces wrote in her tag, "Liebster" means in German: sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, cute, welcome, endering...such a cool world to learn!=)

1- Is this your first time blogging?

Nope, I've actually started two other blogs in the past with not much success. I'm guessing they are still out there somewhere in the net...

2- What's your favorite food?

I like eating so much that I can not pick just one thing...I guess yummy salads, sushi and Chinese food and anything typical from Spain and Mediterranean diet!

3- Do you have any pets? what are their names?

Yes, I do! I have a cat called Mix that I love very, very much. I miss him a lot because he is back home in Madrid.

4- What's the weather like where you live?

Right now, kind of crazy. Really warm and humid and with lots of summer rains and storms.

5- Ice cream, frozen yogurt or gelato?

In this order: gelato, ice cream (I always thought that gelato was just the Italian word for ice cream...) and frozen yogurt at last just because I have never tried!

6- Do your family or friends read your blog?

No, only my boyfriend knows about it. He is very supportive and he told me he was proud of me for taking a step forward and starting mine.

7- what do you enjoy most about blogging?

All the thinking about what I will talk about, the pictures I will use...it takes me a lot of effort sometimes but still...I feel like in continuous brainstorming since I started!

8- First blog ever read

Honestly I can´t remember...

9- What do you want to get done before the end of 2012?

Quite a few things actually!!

First, finish my master's thesis, keep the blog up doing good things with it, take a German course and learn something from it (starting in Oct.); since I have already planned paying the gym, actually going to it and get fit, get the internship I want in the company I want and realizing that's the type of job I was looking for...keep loving my b/f at least as much as I do now.

10- When you shop, what do you buy the most of shoes, clothes, purses, accessories or make up?

To be honest, if I could I'd buy a lot of everything but since I can´t and I have quite control of myself, in order of preference it goes like this: make up/beauty related, clothes, shoes and in equal level purses and accessories.

11- What's one thing you can't not leave without?

I don´t know...there is actually not a single thing I couldn´t leave without out because I think that if you are strong enough you can over take any loss. Biologically speaking you can not leave without skin or at least one of your lungs. Life would be quite boring without make-up, clothes, going out, music, readin, sports, traveling or meeting people...right? My boyfriend probably would say he can not leave without rize, which is like his favourite thing in the whole world. I'd say that feeling like I've found my other half, I couldn´t leave without him. <3

I'm supposed to nominate 11 people and make 11 questions on my own. For that I need to think about it a bit, so I'll post it in the next few days.

Hope you all have a wonderfull week!!

When I don't know what to eat...SUSHI!

This is where I had lunch the other day...MIKADO! I'm a sushi lover, but my no means a sushi expert!


So if you know a better sushi place with a decent prices let me know =)

Poulet Teriyaki and Sushi (Plainpalais)

In the mean time, I think this place is great. You have variety at a good quality, prices range from 6-7 to 14FCH and you can eat on the go: sur place ou à l'emporter!! =)


Yummie!

Natural hair and lazy summer days!

This is how I've been styling my hair the past few months...no heat, no over products, all natural...=)

Parc des bastions

Watch out because in future posts I'll talk about what i do to keep my hair healthy and what products I'm using =)


Suggestions are welcoming, please comment, share and subscribe if you like it =)

Bargain...New Sandals!

I couldn´t help myself with this bargain...All leather, this sandals where 49,95 FCH and I bought them for 34,95 FCH.

La Halle Chaussures, Rue de Lausanne

Considering how expensive is this country, the quality and how cute they are-it was imposible to resist!


They are confortable and with this heat we are having the best thing to wear...=)

What's in my Sony Xperia

Bonjour!


Today I will talk about what's on my phone and which are my favourite apps. I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc. I have it since December and I absolutly love it!! I've never had fancy cell phones and I kind of understand why not because now it seems that I can not move without it!


There are so many new phones this days that i find it kind of hard to keep up, so probably mine is already an antique xD


(for extra information about specifications etc: click here) 

Anyways, going back to what I have in my phone...


     


This is what I have in my main page. I have the weather widget set for Geneva at the right, quite usefull!, and My period tracker at the left (sorry if this is too much information for somebody =P). Pretty self-explanatory both of them.

At the bottom I have direct link to my music, text msg, contacts and phone calls. This is kind of my most basics and used ones.


I just recently discovered how to organize my apps in folders. Yeah I know, it's kind of lame but I thought that was something that only certains phones could do and I never thought mine was one of them...=)




So I was just happy cliking in the central key and scrolling through the different pages in search of whatever app I wanted to use.


Now, that I discover how to organize my apps I have 5 different folders that for the sake of this post, are located in my main page. I guess I'll switch the distribution as to not to have everything so crowded but for the moment it doesn't bother me and I find it quite handy!

My first folder is called "Social media" and it has everything I need to stay in touch with people. 


My facebook personal page and facebook messenger (I find it works better that the chat in the facebook app), tuenti which is like the spanish version of facebook, what's app, twitter, instagram, skype, google talk (which I have never used), blogger and bloglovin' to follow my favourites blogs.


My most used ones are facebook and instagram. I'm a huge instagram lover and follower <3


I hope blogger becomes one of my most used ones since it would mean that I'm blogging a lot on the go and that my blogs works!! (Fingers cross...!!)

Next folder is where I keep everything I need to do and retouch photos.


My camera, photo gallery and a bunch of apps to add effects and filters like, picsart (good for adding effects and doing collages), photo editor, photo grid (nice for adding in frames various pictures together), retouch free and pixlr-o-matic (it's great with tons of effects).


I'm looking for good apps to mark your photos and add figures like hearts, stars and that type of thing so I'm open to any recommendations!

Next I have a folder called "accesories" with all my basic things like settings, gmail, hotmail, internet access, alarm, calculator, google maps, calendar, watch, google translater, play store and Springpad.


I'm quite a messy person. I always tell myself I should write things down and have a planner to plan my days and my work, but it seems not to workk for me whatsoever!!so I'm always looking for cool apps with the ilusion that the would get me to organize myself better (since I use my phone so much).


I haven't gotten to really use springpad but I find it's a really cool app. It allows you to save ideas, notes and tasks, clip articles and things you find on the web, share all that with your family and friends and see what others are sharing...(for more info).

In this folder (which I think I won't be keeping in my main page) I have direct acces to my music, Shazam (everyone knows this one, it works amazing!!) and TuneIn radio. I really like this last one because you can listen to any radio for anywhere wherever you are (I think!).


I also have Track ID and Radio FM which I have never used.


like you see nothing interesting here.










In my next and last folder, called "Games etc" which I think I shoudl called something cool like "Productivity", I have three types of apps.


- Health apps: My diet diary and my fitness buddy, which again I haven't really gotten to use them but from what I've seen they seem to be the best of their type. And then apps like recetario or recipes where I kind look for new recipes and write my favourite ones etc.
- Cultural apps: like verbs in french, french trainer and test your english.
- Last but not least Games: I used to have Tiny tower, island paradise and Tetris but I got tired of them. Right now, tho I don't really play that much anymore, Triple town, Mouse and Bubble Blast.


So this is it!! 


I'm sorry for the long post. I don't know if this was interesting or of much help at all, but hey...I'm just putting it out there in case there is someone that would care to read it =)


(Now that I think of, I'm actually missing in the folders apps like youtube, officesuite...lol)


Hope you are all doing great and see you soon!

Nature and coffe!

Hey!


Today I wanted to share this picture with you. 

Parc de la Jonction

I took the picture with my cell phone and I manage to deleted thinking I wouldn't need it anymore...and guess what? After having published this picture in every public social network I'm in, I decide to start a blog and had to rescue this picture from my facebook personal page...=)


So here it is and I hope you like it...


Bonne soirée et à bientôt!
