Ombre Hair

Helloooooo guys! I have been sooo busy this week, and I finally found a moment this weekend. I have been working hard with school like I mentioned before and I actually been reading a great book that I might write about later on.

Anyways, today I decided to show you all my hair. I got ombre done a little bit less than a year ago and I've been loving it ever since then. I really don’t want to die my whole hair because to be honest it scares me a little, so I decided to dye only my ends and give it the ombre style. I think it looks great in a lot of people no matter your hair color, I was scared at the beginning because I have really dark hair but I asked the hairstylist not to dye it too blonde, but instead a light brown color and here is the result:

Hope you guys enjoy it! And if you want to go ombre, do so!

Hope you have a lovely and less stressful than mine weekend!

Love,

Pili

How to Survive High School

Hello lovely people! Once again school is kicking my butt. But I decided to put this in good use and help anyone struggling with school this year or next year. Maybe, you also have the IB in your school so you have to work extra hard to catch up and do work. So here are some basic tips to survive a hard year in high school:

1.  Don’t leave anything to last minute

You probably hear this all the time. Do your assignments the day they are given to you, but you must have a lot from different subjects. I learned this the hard way, in 10^th grade I left everything for last minute, so I had math homework, Spanish essays and more due the following day and I had nothing done. Most essay they give you two week anticipation, so try doing it that day or that weekend. I did this in 11^th grade and trying to doing now, it feels way better than leaving last minute.

2.  Use an agenda

A big advice I got from older people when I started high school was to use an agenda, some school provide you with one, if not buy one and use it! They are really helpful to remember different homework and assignments.

3.  Talk to your teachers

Teachers are really willing to help. I discover that they love it when you ask question, or arrange meetings after class. So go for it! Ask as many questions as you want, talk to them as much as you can. I guarantee most of them are willing to help, and give you a pass for late classes!

4.  Work out

Al though you might think you have no time, find a little gap in your day to work out or play a sport, it is a nice way to release your tension and stress you might have from all your classes and homework’s. I know that whenever I’m stress I get cramps and by working out they go away. So try and stay active even when loaded with work!

5.  Find time to relax

Find a time every now and then to relax in any way. Take a hot shower or relax at night watch a movie or TV. Trying to forget about school for an hour or so, and then you actually have more energy to do homework.

6.  Trying not to skip school

Try to go to school every day and only skip when is extremely necessary. This is a hard one for me but I learned about it last year. Skipping school not only gives you more homework but you are behind the class and might be stuck in a certain topic. So trying to go to school every day.

7.  Be organize

Lastly, try to be as organize as possible. So people might struggle with this, but try as hard as possible. Have an organize schedule about which days you are going to do each thing. Also, keep your working place as organize as possible, so nothing bothers you or distract you. Keep your notebooks or binders, as well, organize, separate each subject and have everything in chronological order.

I hope this is helpful for many of you! Good luck to anyone in high school or any type of school!

Love,

Pili

Poetry

HI! It has been more than a week since I last posted! I apologize, I actually have 3 good reasons why, first one being I started school again, so that has got me everywhere except with writing time! The second one is a nice friend of mine call IB, yep the International Baccalaureate, my friends. In case you don’t know it’s like AP subjects, maybe even harder and longer. So I’m starting all my IB projects, running around teachers and giving them ideas. The third and last is my Microsoft Word wasn't working and I like writing there before posting. Anyways, I promised I tried to post more and this blog might help me in my CAS class (more IB stuff) so I’ll post more often. 

Enough of this, today I’m going to share one of my latest poem. I actually really liked this one, and I think you can interpret it however you want it. It is different from what I normally write because it is not based on anything personal.

Bare

You stand there bare

Giving me everything

Helping me through everything

And I can’t think straight

You stand there bare

The taxi cabs and the snow

The city moving fast

And I stare at you slowly

You stand there as your laugh echoes

You have that winning smile

Your head through back

And I listen to your laugh smiling

I stand there bare

I stand there looking out

I stand there as my laugh echoes

You can’t think straight, but you listen and stare

I hope you enjoy it, I would love some feedback and may I’ll post more poems!

Love,

Pili

Pretty Little Liars Does The 1940’s!

Hey guys! Happy Valentine’s Day! Two posts in a week, woah what’s happening? The truth is I actually couldn't help myself I was dying to talk about this whole Pretty Little Liars Episode.

When I first heard about it on twitter and Instagram, I had no idea how exactly they were going to do this and how it was going to match with the show in general. But after I saw how everything turned out, I was in awe. The episode was by far one of my favorite; you really got not only a lot of information, but kept my eyes glue to the screen the whole time. Another thing that I was taken back by was the amazing acting skill everyone had in this episode, Troian Bellisario defiantly stole the show, she did an amazing job like usual but manage to make it 10 times better, although everyone did great, Ashley Benson, Lucy Hale, Shay Mitchell, Ian Harding, Sasha Pieterse, and Keegan Allen all did great. The scenery was amazing it looked exactly like the 40’s probably looked like and like most 40s movies do.

Here are some of the pictures from the show:

Hope you all have a lovely weekend and I’ll see you next week!
