I am kind of excited to go watch this movie! love Cherry Bomb and well Dakota Fanning looks great and I really think this is the perfect role for Kristen Stewart. Check out the trailer:

Something to brighten up anyone's day!

The lovely Luana over at Lemon Soda posted this video and I just HAD to reblog it because no one can be sad too long when they check out this cutie pie.

Enjoy!

Oh me oh my...

Check out these pictures of Christina Ricci wearing a Marc Jacobs Spring 2010 Collection dress! Doesn't she look to die for? I was considering a tan but thankfully Miss Ricci reminds me why I love my pale skin!

A few links to start the week late

Like I had mentioned before I have been a bit busy with finals at the University. Had my final presentation in Latin American Theater and it was a big hit. I was really excited about that but now I have to do three more finals (yikes!). I thought I'd copy off Joanna over at A Cup of Jo (one of my favorite blogs) and round up a bunch of links to things I find interesting just to start your week.

Cute and fun uses for old light bulbs.

I'd never wake up to the sweet sounds of a flute in the morning but this alarm clock is quite lovely looking.

Mixing chocolate and a cellphone might be the cutest idea I've ever seen.

I wish I had to ride on a train and have my views be like this every morning and not the underground scene I get when ridding a subway.

Psst, wanna guess my favorite band?

I always thought steam punk to be a very romantic thing. Just check out this old looking necklace, this romantic see through skirt and pendant.

A good list of things to do when life's got you down.

Check out the cake I want to bake for my mom's birthday over here!

Lots of Love,

Moni

Want to know a little secret?

Bonobo Concert, originally uploaded by Charles/Baron.

My sister's boyfriend, Erick, is in a band and I have some of their songs on my phone... the other day I was listening to music and totally rocking out to a particular song I couldn't quite identify and suddenly I noticed the voice I was listening to was... Erick's! I feel so weird listening to his voice and singing along because I see him nearly 3 times a week and he's just Erick, my little sister's boyfriend.

Would you feel weird? if you turned on the radio and there was your boyfriend, sister's boyfriend or something along those lines? I know I feel funny but still jam out and love their music.

Midnight Craving!

Oh dear! I was sitting here chilling and studying for my last two finals (Yay!) and I suddenly stopped and had the most insane craving for Pancakes. Literally at 12 in the morning as I read my way through Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novel, Notes From the Underground (which is really good by the way)

Ever have these cravings guys? Want to share what yummy food you'd love to have at 12 in the morning?

P.S.: Sorry for missing on my post yesterday, the University is driving me nuts with things to do!

How crazy beautiful are these pictures taken by photographer Drobyshev Evgeny of this bar in Moscow? They looks so pretty I wouldn't mind living there! I'm not a big fan of pink since every time I am around it my age drops from the speculated 16-17 to 14 or so but I'd be willing to bypass that to just lounge around in this place.

To Start The Week!

A while ago I decided to start being healthier and this meant I had to give up a few things. One of those things (that has been the hardest) is my intake of coffee... and I will admit I sometimes have a cup here and there but I try and substitute that now with Tea! So now I try to brew myself tea in the morning and not coffee.

So enjoy these links I found on the wonder that is tea...

This place lists a lot of benefits for a lot of different teas! My favorite kind has always been Chamomile and Thyme.

Tea by George Orwell.

Interesting article written by Chubby Mommy about why she drinks her tea can be found over here.

The best looking tea containers over at Revolution.

Is tea better than water?

What do you guys think? Do you drink Tea? What's your favorite kind? I'd love to know!

Tomorrow it starts! I am ready to roll!

Stating tomorrow I will try and keep this thing on full gear! I have been writing down ideas and trying to figure out how this thing works and how to post and what not but I think I am getting there now and I have plans for my little blog here. It may not be as old or fancy as most blogs out there but I like it and it is mine! So next week I will begin with a sort of weekly posting schedule for this new little friend here.

On Mondays: To start the week!

Basically links on things I find interesting to start the week off. Not too many and maybe just a short review but something that I know I'd love to start the week to. Coffee? Late mornings? A cute guy looking back at me? A good book or even a pretty alarm clock, Mondays are to start the week!

On Wednesday: Design inspiration

Not sure how good I'll be with this one but I looove interior design ideas and this will be the day to put them up here for people to look at.

On Fridays: Fashion Inspiration

Need I say more? I love fashion and have considered trying my hand at becoming a designer in the future but I've leaned more toward fashion photograpohy so this section I will post up anything from runways, clothes I'd love to get, polyvore sets, just things that catch my attention in the fashion world.

Those will be the things that I would love to keep up with with a few other sassy little things thrown in there every once in a while so thanks for tuning in and I hope you enjoy your stay!

love,

Moonie

First post, a little trial

Well I guess this counts as a first post for my new blog! I am Monica and this here will be a new blog for me My personal blog is another and this is more of an inspiration, fun blog for me to just share things with people I find interesting, pretty, inspiring or simply interesting. I hope I can keep this up since it tends to be hard for me to let go of my personal life and not mix it in with whatever I am writing.

Though I guess the basics you need to know about me is I am Monica, currently 22 years old. Art Student. Venezuelan. Spanish speaker. English Writer. Art Student. Sister. Daughter. Friend. Single (and loving it!). Photographer and overall fun loving girl wanting to show people we Venezuelans aren't just pretty women but smart, whimsical, fashionable and fun!
