Freshman Year, Here I Come!!

*WARNING*
GET READY TO READ THE MOST RANDOM THINGS, I'M TYPING WHAT COMES TO MY MIND WITHOUT AN SPECIFIC ORDER

Hey everyone!!
So I know this is off-topic, but I felt I needed to share this with you!

First of all, I'd like to explain how the school works here...

We normally do 3 years of kindergarten, 6 of elementary, 3 of junior high, and 3 of high school... So even though we do less years of high school, we still go from the 1st to the 12th grade)... Then you go to university, but you go directly to where you want to (law, medical, engineering, etc) and most of the colleges offer 9 semester programs, but some programs are 10 semesters (for example, in my school the Architecture program is 10 semesters long)...

With that being said.....


So, this year I'll be a freshman in college... I'll be studying Chemical Engineering and Business Administration, so I know the next 9 semesters everything will be hard...

Why I chose this?
I don't really know, I guess it was because I tried to do the opposite of what my parents told me I could do; please don't get me wrong, I don't always do the opposite, but I felt that what my parents wanted me to be wasn't what I felt like doing (they wanted me to do things that I could do in my house, like an accountant or something like that), bur I've always loved 3 things: beauty (duhh!), helping others, and science... I really enjoyed my physics, chemistry and calculus classes and I felt like those were the things that I wanted to do for living (now I have 2 dreamed jobs: working in a cosmetic company creating different products, and the other is working in a pharmaceutic company creating the best medicines)...

Why I'm nervous?
I'm going to a big school... I used to live in a small town and my school always had a small population, then when I got into high school I went to a "big" campus (that's what I thought), and the entire school population was of 400 people, then on my Senior year I was transfered to a new school where the population was bigger (about 1,000 people), but now I'm going to a school where students from all around the world come and the approximate population is of 16,000 people!! I feel like I'll get lost in such a big campus!
I'm also nervous because I know nothing will be similar to high school... People always told me that the best stage of their lives has been high school and until now this has been completely true! (So, if you are still in high school ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN!!), I know many of my friends will still be around, but there are many others that are going to different schools or even in the same school but to a different section (like literature, or law school, medical school, etc)

I'm afraid that I won't be good enough for this, but I know that I have to give 300% of me to achieve my goals!

So, if you have tips for the freshman year, please share them here!!

☼ How To: Frozen Yogurt Pops!! ☼

Hey Guys!! So I'll show you a really quick post of how I do frogurt pops :D

What you need:

  • 2 yogurts: I like Activia in strawberry and natural. I like to use these 2 flavors because I feel like if I use 2 strawberry yogurts the banana flavor won't "pop". You can use any yogurt you want (lactose free, light, regular, etc)
  • 1 banana (you can use peaches, mangoes, etc)
  • 2 cups and 2 wooden sticks or popsicle molds
  • Vanilla extract
  • Blender

Process:
  • Put the yogurt in the blender
  • Chop the fruit in small/medium sized pieces.
  • Add the fruit and the vanilla extract to the yogurt
  • Blend until everything becomes and homogeneous mixture
  • Pour the mixture into the cups/popsicle molds
  • Put them in the freezer (I like to let them overnight to make sure it is entirely frozen)

(Posssible) Giveaway!

Hey guys!! so as you can read in the video if and only if I get 200 subscribers by my birthday I'll do a giveaway!! So please help me!!

May Favorites!!

Hey guys!!
So today I'll be doing this post because I'm just not in the mood to speak to a camera, hehehe...

So, this is my May Favorites!!

Hair:

John Frieda Frizz-Ease Care Daily Nourishment Leave-In Conditioner (Long name, huh... hahaha)

I loooove it because it makes my hair feel alive again!! I bought it to help with my hair extensions, but I began to use it in my hair in an everyday basis. It helps with the detangling process and the hair feels so clean and lightweight!! Gotta love it!!


Braided hair:

I love to braid my hair to keep my bangs out of the way and then take all of the hair into a bun. The weather here is sooo hot that I can't even stand it!! And what is great about this hairstyle is that it is super versatile! 

Makeup:

Neutrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Makeup:

It is an amazing foundation!! Great coverage, dewy finish, inexpensive, there's nothing else I can say!

Great duo for everyday! These 2 colors are the perfect balance between sweet and wild.

Sedona Lace Contest Entry (:

Hey everyone!!

So I'm doing this post because I want to win a black set of the Sedona Lace 12 makeup brushes set.

These are the reasons of why I want to try these:
1) They look so elegant!! I prefer them black (I'm not a big fan of baby pink),  and I think these will be amazing when doing other people's makeup and having a professional look.

2) They are great quality. I've never used these cosmetic brushes BUT according to the many reviews I've watched and read these brushes are really comparable to really expensive brushes, and if they do the same job I think there is no acceptable reason for buying the expensive ones ;)

3) A good quality makeup brush is really important for getting a good quality makeup look, you could be using really expensive makeup, but if you are using the wrong tools the final look won't be nice.

I think these are three of the main reasons I have, but of course there are so many others!!

Thanks for reading, I really appreciate you took the time to do it!!
