DREAMS..

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to call it a dream when it actually was a nightmare. A HORRIBLE NIGHTMARE!! It intrigues me what the real meaning under my nightmare means, but I don't know someone who reads dreams or knows the meaning of them.. But anyway I'm going to tell you all about my nightmare.
Someway, somehow, I don't really remember where I was I just remember being kidnapped, by apparently someone I DO KNOW! WTF!! and when I woke up and realized I was kidnapped I was in sort of a garage, but not really it was this creepy place, full of saws, knifes, nails, just anything someone could use to torture a human being. As I was laying on a nail bed this guys were talking about how they would burn my skin and peel it off. Inside my mind I just wanted to die, but the real nightmare was about to get started. As they burned my skin, little by little, some spots would get more burned then others, in my body, real mind I could the pain, I don't understand why I didn't wake up. I was burned already, I could feel my skin, alive, just there, raw.. LOTS of PAIN!, when they decided to peel my skin off, little by little, I remember them beginning through my chest, pulling the parts that weren't that burned, I could feel it all, I wouldn't cry or scream in my dream, because in a weird way I knew I was dreaming. As soon as they were done with the frontal part of my body, the made me turn around, as I turned around I thought it was water underneath me, but it wasn't, it was alcohol, I remember the pain running through my body, through my skin, that was when I begin to scream. They kept on peeling my back, but it wasn't as painful as the alcohol burning me. I was skinless, after that I remember someone punched me on the face, but I couldn't feel anymore pain, I was lets call it this way "high" cause of all the pain.. I guess.. I remember hearing them say, it was time for them to rape me, but something stopped them.. And through my burned body they started to hit me with a whip, till I couldn't stand it no more.. And that was when I woke up..
The thing is.. I've been having this nightmare where I just feel everything in my actual body. So I don't know what my mind is trying to tell me but it's freaking me out..

please do comment!!!!!!!!

COUNTRY

So I've been meaning to write about this restaurant I've been to twice in less than a week.. you must wonder why. It's called COUNTRY they serve AMERICAN BISTRO food which is simply amazing.. but even more amazing the place.. I'm allowing myself to call it the prettiest restaurant in Mexico City.

Ever since you walk in, you find yourself in a fairy tale, I personally found myself in Alice in Wonderland, this hall just covered by greens, birds singing and cows mooing.. you know its promising..

Once you are inside the hostess is waiting for you in this old wood table, Hampton style without a doubt.. Once you are already inside the restaurant the first thing you see is this fridge with meats, and on top all sorts of seafood.. a few steps further you'll find yourself in paradise.. DESSERT FRIDGE.. they all look so yummy.. But notice how it's decorated, it gives you this home feeling, like you are about to have lunch at your grandma's house.

this is the main saloon, it the first one you see as you walk in.



this is what they call the lounge, it has a retractable ceiling, which transforms it into a terrace.

















Now, let's leave the place aside for a while. THE MENU.. it's isn't huge, but it has a great variety, crab cakes all the way to a brioche filled with lobster and chipotle.. As I mentioned I've been there twice, and in both of my visits, I've loved everything I ordered.
I highly recommend this place, my personal favorite so far the BBQ RIB, not the typical kind and it's simply mouthwatering. It's a place to go when you have lots of free time, because you forget how long you have been there, that's how cozy it is.
So if you feel like visiting it around the weekend, it's best if you call and make a reservation, as the place tends to be fully booked.

Sick

I haven't been writing that much lately, since I've been very sick, I'm sure I told you I got sick quite often.. and well it happened again. I got a cold, at first it wasn't that bad, but as usual I didn't take real care of it and just continued with my normal life, which I shouldn't have. I had a couple of parties over the weekend, it was freezing outside but hey fashion comes first... (used to think that) screw that next time I'm keeping my coat on all the time, as in now I'm suffering the consequences, 6 pills in the morning, 6 at lunch , and 6 at night.. whole lot to swallow.. And now I'm feeling dizzy, sort of spaced out.. light head.. yikes! I don't even know what I'm taking but it is helping as much as it's messing up with my brain..
Nothing interesting but just felt like writing a little.

The Oven

I'm sure I told you about me loving the kitchen, or wanting to be a chef in a near future. I'm going to post some pictures of things I´ve baked or cooked. I personally love baking desserts, but I guess if I try to cook salty things or just normal food.. I wouldn't be bad at it :):)..

CHOCOLATE CAKE:

definitely my speciality

made out of scratch!!!!!

BANANA BREAD:

this one is great if you have bananas that are about to due...

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES:

my personal favorite

Today for example I baked 25 carrot cupcakes, I had to try different recipes, because last night I tried baking them with my CARROT CAKE RECIPE but  somehow in cupcakes it wouldnt work, I guess it has a lot to do with all the juice inside the pinapple.. (YES, just in case you didnt know sometimes CARROT CAKE has PINEAPPLE; I personally think it makes it more juicy and tastier.) So I had to look on the internet for a cupcake recipe, I found a 1000 but my personal favorite was Martha's Stewart one, I used my original frosting recipe as it's a little bit more stiff, and has a lot more flavor..

 

When It Happens

I wasn't really sure on what to write about today but I guess the series of events over my day brought me here.

When it happens..

What am I talking about?

I'm sure you know.

LOVE



• What is it?
• Where can I find it?
• How does it feel like?
• Does it only happen once?

I don't have the right answers for those questions, LOVE is different for everyone.

But back to the topic, WHEN IT HAPPENS!

I honestly never thought it would happen to me, I use to consider myself a very self-centered person, selfish, complicated and definitely cold-hearted; But deep down someone seeking for love was desperate to come out, wouldn't let that someone come out because it would show the world how fragile I really was. I don't want to say that all time I wasn't happy, because I was, I don't want to say I rejected love, because I didn't, it really just wasn't my time. I'm so grateful for that, I wasn't mature enough to be in a relationship, I was out there living what I had to live, but now that it has come... I'm even more grateful than what I used to be.

I never thought that I could open my heart to someone, to let someone in, before my life was my own business no need for no one to be sneaking around... "GET AWAY!" I would say.

As much as it wasn't my time, a lot had to do with me not appreciating who I was, with not being grateful for all that surrounded me or all I had.. I had everything a girl could possibly want, but that wasn't enough, I was missing the most important part.. ME .. I was there but I wasn't, I was somewhere else, lost, in a dark place where noting ever seemed to shine, I guess I saw a glimpse of bright light that caught my eye, and that was when I started to look at all the good things in me, instead of all the wrong ones. Once I learned how to love myself, without even looking, without even trying, love came to me, that special someone was standing right there in front of me, so I took that chance.. And here I am now writing about it.

LOVE or a LOVER in this case certainly shows up at least once in your life, but we have to stop looking in all the wrong places. Love will show, when it has to be shown, don't force it, just let it flow.

For me, to have a special someone with whom I can share my life, has no price. It is something everyone should experience. I sometimes think it's just TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!!!! and try to sabotage it, but when I do, I just prove myself that IT CAN BE THAT GOOD, IN FACT IT KEEPS GETTING BETTER! And as in life, also in relationships you will have issues, but if you are in it a 100% you'll get through them.

So let yourself into the game of love, cause more than a game is a life experience that makes your grow, and learn from others what you can't learn all alone.

I LOVE YOU BABY

It ain't easy but it sure makes your life easier in a future..

I found this cartoon somewhere in the internet and it made me think of all the teenagers that have dropped out of school. School is hard, by school I mean high school, college, etc. but think a little further, think of your life with out your High School Diploma, where would you work? ... A: McDonalds tops!! and I have nothing against people working at McDonalds, my point here is that if you have the opportunity to get higher education you should just go for it, it is very easy to live @ your parents home and live out of what they provide you, it seems easy to us teens, but once you grow older, you realize life as an adult is a big responsability, with a thousand bills to pay, loans, expenses, etc. thats what I call responsabilities, SCHOOL you might be thinking its a HUGE RESPONSABILITY, yes it is but it's the only one you have so far, and its your door to a better future, it does not guarantee you will be the CEO of a huge company, but at least you have studies that will help you get a better job. With so many options now on the market why do we choose "the easy way out", dropping out of school certainly isn´t the easy way out, we think we will drop out, work and have fun, because it's easier than school.. but it is NOT. Stay in school. Study hard. Reach your goals. Life is too short to be fooling around. Remember whatever you do today will have an effect tomorrow. So THINK BEFORE YOU ACT.

Antisocial Phone Tricks

I found this video while Stumbling, and well I have nothing else to say but "Hey, I can relate". I shouldn't and I'm not proud of this, I personally have done that, the "I love you, but mean it", my boyfriend hates my Blackberry, he keeps hiding it from me while we are together so that I actually participate in whatever conversation we are having. I know its very annoying to be sharing something with someone and that person keeps saying (aha, yeah, really. etc. ) cause I have lived it with my mom, whenever I try to tell her something and she is texting it takes her around 2 min. to come back from wherever she was and goes "Sorry, what where you saying?". It honestly kills me, so I relate to my boyfriend.
Isn't technology supossed to bring us together, to keep us in touch, blah, blah, blah.. I think as in now, as in today its pulling us apart of those who are close by and bringing us close to those who are far away. In conclusion we should make a change, and I dont mean everyone cause I know a lot of people that arent that close to their phones, but I also now many others which can't do anything without them, inclouding me. Lets stop being so available all the time and give us a break from all sorts of techs, it will bring us SANITY I'm sure.

Who am I?

My name is Ana Cecilia, everyone calls me Ana, I'm 18 years old, I live in Mexico City and I was born in Mexico.

There is a lot about me to know but it would take me years to write about it, as every day I discover something new in me.

I'll go with the basics:

• i love chocolate and cookies.
• i dislike avocado among others.
• i enjoy long walks.
• i love the beach.
• i love snowboarding.
• i love cats.
• i dislike traffic (but who doesnt??)
• i'm allergic almost to everything (cats, polen, dust, humidity, weather changes, etc.)
• i play the piano & sometimes sing (doesnt mean im good)
• i have a huge obsession with sharpies..
• i love flowers.
• one of my favorite cities is Paris.
• my favorite store is BARNES AND NOBLE or BORDERS. (bookworm)
• i get sick frequently.
• i'm 5'2 & 135lbs
• i have green eyes
• i want to be a chef.

If I mentioned everything I like or dislike I would never finish.. but those are basic things to know about me.

As a person I'm quite open, at first sight I might come up as a very quiet or shy person but that's just me, reading you. It's my way to figure out if I can trust you or not.

I like to keep my friends around, I dont have a thousand friends but the friends I have are real friends.

I believe that honesty is what makes up good relationships and what keeps them strong.

I have one brother and a sister, he is 16 and she is 11, we get along pretty well, I dont know what I would do without them, they make my day brighter by the minute.

As you read my posts you will continue to figure out what is it that I like or dislike..
