👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 14: 3 Healthy Habits

Ok, when I think of healthy habits I only think about working out and eating healthy foods, which would make it hard for me because, I'm too lazy to exercise and my eating habits are not exactly the healthiest~

 3 Healtyh habits

I went online to check what other things could be considered "healthy habits" hoping to find something I do that could fit in here and surprisingly, there are many more than I thought and I can actually say I do have them as a part of my habits.

Before I start, I'm gonna leave the link to the site here if you feel like checking it out. It's also a good read if you want to start having new, healthy habits.

I think the first one will be: Drinking more water than soda. Yeah, I love a good cold coke but there was a time where that was everything I'd drink, all day, at least 3 times a week. I know, it was so wrong.

I won't lie and say I only drink water now but I do try to drink as much water as I can during the day, I usually have a water of bottle around me, when I'm at home and at work, especially now it is getting super hot, gotta stay hydrated. I still love soda, but I only drink it sometimes during the weekend or when I eat out. 

Next would be: Laugh. I laugh out loud, no matter who I am with, I'm not ashamed of it. I can be very silly and laugh easily. I think even my students know that. I had no idea this was actually a healthy habit.

And last one is: Family and friends. It is no secret I love the people around me and I love to spend time with them. so, even tho we all have a life and can get busy at times, I always try to make time to spend with them. Even if it's just a coffee date, watching a show together, quick lunch or just spending lazy time together, I truly enjoy it. 
I've always been a family person and I love my friends as if they were family too. I'm always happy when I'm around them.

Other extra habits would be gratitude, having a (kind of) journal and being more careful with my sleeping hours.

On the other hand, I know there are other things I could start working on such as: stop overthinking, build focus, become more physically active, read more and others.

Reading that article(?) gave me so many ideas of the small things that can make our days better. It is hard sometimes but I think it could be worth it in the end.

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 13: What's Inside My Fridge

Don't expect to read something too interesting here... I feel like this is the most random post I've ever had to write but, it's part of the challenge.

 What's inside my fridge

I'm not too sure how to start this one so, I think I'll just make a list of the things we usually have in the fridge...

Freezer:
Is mentioning ice cubes important? Oh well, besides that, you'll also find frozen foods for the week (cuz I usually do groceries weekly) such as chicken, meat and of course fish and sea food. Also a bag or two of frozen veggies and now that the weather is super hot we have some ice cream too.

Fridge:
There's usually some leftovers in there along with eggs, my bacon mayo, milk, cheese, cream cheese, butter, ham (sometimes), veggies, yogurt and my beloved sake. Haha. 
Mmm... as I'm typing this, we also have some cake but that can also change to jelly or fruit pudding thingies. 

And... I think that's it for this one. Sorry if it was a little random and boring but, it's a fridge! 

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 12: My Favorite Childhood Book

This is a hard one because even tho I have many stories I like, I mainly remember them from movies, not books~

 My favorite childhood book

I'm sure I read some books back when I was a little girl but, there's no one I can think of when it comes to a favorite childhood book.
We used to have this book set with many classic stories and I enjoyed going through them. One of the stories I liked the most was The Princess and the pea. I had to go through the story again because I didn't remember much of it... hehe, And now that I remember it, I can't see why I liked it that much. I think it was those many mattresses the princess had to sleep on~ idk.

Other stories that are also books and I really liked (and still do) were Alice in Wonderland, Robin Hood and Thumbelina.

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 11: 10 Favorite Foods

Eating is something I really enjoy, especially desserts. Does it count as food too? I hope so cuz I'm including them in here.

 10 Favorite foods

My favorite foods won't be in any particular order and I'm sure you'll see some junk food in here. Don't judge me! Hehe.

Japanese food. Sushi was probably the first thing I tried from Japanese food and I still love it to this day. But then I started trying other dishes and soups and now I can say I'm always up for Japanese food! (and desserts). A good bowl of ramen always feels like the perfect comfort food and I can't say no to some takoyaki. I know I still have a long list of japanese dishes to try and many restaurants to visit but, it's part of the adventure.

Pasta. Any kind, with tomato, cheese, veggies, meat, sea food, etc. I'll eat it! 

Cheese. I'm sure many will agree with me that cheese has to be one of the most delicious foods ever. Add cheese to any food and it's instantly better. The cheessier(?) the better!

Pizza. What can I say? There is such big variety of pizza that it's hard not to like it. From the fanciest pizza to Little Caesar's. I. JUST. LOVE. PIZZA!

Berries. I like fruits but I don't eat them as often as I should. But the fruits I enjoy eating the most have to be berries. Anything berries is a must try for me.

Rice. It's the perfect side dish. I've tried different kinds but my favorite has to be white rice.

Mc Donald's. As unhealthy as it is I really enjoy it! It's not like I eat it every week which makes it a lot more satisfying when I actually do. I don't really eat nuggets, I go for the burgers, milkshakes, pies, coffee and of course, breakfast!

Chocolate. Not much to say. I could eat it everyday. (In fact, I do)

Ice Cream. Especially choco-mint flavor. But, I think I'd eat any flavor of ice cream. 

Cake / Pie. The only kind ok cake I don't like is Milk Cake (tres leches). Other than that, cake makes me happy

There you have them, my 10 favorite foods. I'm not sure if I forgot to add some in there~ What's your favorite food?

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 10: Best Trip Of My Life

Hiiiiii!
I think most of you would guess which one has been my best trip so far~ Anyway, let's get into this!

 Best Trip of my life

Even tho I've made trips to a few countries around the world, I can't say I've been to many of them. I do have nice memories of those trips but I think my favorite one was my trip to Spain last year. Mainly because I was older and I could enjoy a lot more.

I went to Valencia on November 21st and spent over 2 months there. This trip came in perfect timing because I was going through some stuff and I needed a break from everything. 
The exact place I stayed in was called La Pobla de Vallbona, a nice small town only 15 minutes away from Valencia.
While I was there, I visited other cities and towns around Valencia such as: Requena, Teruel, Albarracin, Alcalá del Jucar, Vall de Uxó, Utiel, Xilxes, Alpunete and others.

I gotta say I fell in love with Spain, its places and its food. As expected I ate a lot and bought a lot. When I came back home, I didn't only come with great memories and knowledge of a different culture but, this trip really helped me to relax and feel like myself again. I got to focus on me and let go of many, many things.
For all that and more, my trip to Spain has to be the best one so far.

I'm not going into much details here because I feel like I wrote many posts about it in the past. I'll link some of them down below as well as the Spain Vlogs playlist.

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 9: What's In My Bag / Wallet

I've done a couple of What's in my bag posts in the past and it's always fun. For a moment I thought it'd be nice to do the wallet for a change but, there's nothing interesting in my wallet so, bag it'll be.

 What's In My Bag / Wallet

I'll start with the bag, which is (of course) a bubblegum pink, medium bag. It is not a brand bag, I actually bought it from one of my coworkers. But it is strong and I can put a lot in it.
I put a pink bunny on it to make it look cuter. The bunny is from Miniso.

I usually have a notebook and a pen in my bag, you never know when you're gonna need them. The ones I currently have are both from Ale Hop and say "Disfruta de las pequeñas cosas de la vida" (Enjoy the little things in life).

Then we have my Sailor Moon wallet that has to be one of my favorite things inside my bag. I put a few charms on it: Witch Hello Kitty, another witch I got in Alcalá del Jucar and a chibi Komatsu Nana. 

Like I said, there's nothing too interesting in my wallet besides money, random cards and ID cards. The only thing that could be worth mentioning is this little handmade doll that was gifted to me by one of my coworkers last Christmas. They have a name I can't remember atm but I was told to leave it under my pillow or take it with me in my purse or wallet. You're supposed to tell her your worries and sadness and aparently, she'll make it easier for you.

Next are my glasses. Both sunglasses and my regular glasses. Both are usually in a case to "protect" them. I usually only wear my glasses whenever I'm driving or watching a movie. But lately I've noticed I've been using them a lot more because my eyes feel so tired at the end of the day~

I also carry a small strawberry coin purse (also from Ale Hop) where I keep pain killers and band aids.

Of course, my camera couldn't be missing. I have this silver bag that is supposed to work as its case but I rarely put it in there. I mostly use this camera for vlogging. 

You will always find candies in my bag. I also have Tic Tac. I only got this because they were special edition but, the mint is so strong that, I don't really eat them.

We can't forget about my makeup bag. I change it every now and then but the one I'm still carrying is this Victoria's Secret one. I like it because it's big and I can see everything I'm carrying.

And lastly, my phone, my charger, car keys and house keys. These are usually in my bag whenever I go out.

And, that is that for my bag and wallet. I'll link other related posts and videos down below if you want to check them out.

👯 | 30 Day Blogging Challenge | Day 8: 5 Current Goals

Hello everyone! I really hope you're enjoying the daily posts~ We still have a long way to go.

 5 CURRENT GOALS

I'm definitely a goal person, at least I like to set a few small ones along the year. Last year I got to travel to Europe and change to a bigger school, those 2 were part of my goals. This year, I alredy got the chance to buy my own car but, there are still a few things I wish to achieve before the year ends~

1. Get my own apartment. I had this goal since last year and I was seriously saving money to do it but I used all my savings to travel and buy a car. Even tho this dream/goal has been postponing for whatever reason, it is something I want to experience soon.

2. Become a better and more serious blogger. I usually say this blog is my baby and even tho I try to post constantly, there are months where I have other priorities and abandon this baby. I know this blog is not at a point where I could call it "big" but, I'd like to see it grow. I know I gotta get more serious with it and have a better posting schedule tho.

3. Continue growing professionally. I've already made some choices that changed the way my carreer was going and I do believe they were for the better, in a way. But there's a lot I think I still have to do, and many more things I want to go. As much as I love teachin, I sometimes feel I'd like to try doing other things too. Side jobs maybe? Idk~

4. Fall in love. 

5. Learn to do new things (drawing, card reading, car related stuff... Idk)

I guess my goals keep changing as life continues and I start getting some things done, I hope I can come back in a few months and read this to realize I've achieved this goals.
