Day 127. Girls just wanna have fun

   Today I have a reason to be proud of myself: I didn't buy anything from the mall except for some almonds (which are good for your health). This might sound like "Hello, I'm Dana, and I haven't been a shopaholic for 4 months now." Well no. I'm not a shopaholic, but girls know how hard it is to keep it just to window shopping:) January's the Winter Sales month and when you have money, you tend to spend it. Some spend it wisely, girls... sometimes have the tendency to act on their instinct and afterwards they might have the "student syndrome" - when you find out you're short on money and have to live in scarcity until next month. Nevertheless, it wasn't my case today. 

    My best friend and I had a lot of fun while browsing some shops for accesories but at the end of it we took the most rational decision lately: we can live without the things that were on sales. We didn't feel like spending money on cheap things that we weren't in love with. So we took the way to the Food Court and enjoyed a dinner that made me remember how heaven must feel like. 

   At the end of the day we both concluded that we'd rather spend our money on books than earrings... for now.  

Day 51. Duolingo

   Duolingo helps me have fun while catching up with my Spanish:) I love spending my free time learning new words and using both Spanish and English at the same time:) 
   Here's to some free time spent well;)

Day 49. Sleepover

    On Thursday night I went to my best friend's place for our anual sleepover:) We use to do that once a year when we have the house to ourselves in order to watch our favourite TV Shows and talk about everything till we can't keep our eyes open. But it was a long day until the evening came. 

   My flu said she didn't want to let me go so, by the time I was celebrating Coldrex scared her away, she made a big comeback with intense throat pain and a lot of coughing. So, I went to see the doctor like I said the previous day, and she gave me new pills. Long story short, the pills made me soooo sleepy I could barely stay awake for half of the day. Imagine the joy of going to see the kids and them being all energetic while all I wanted to do was sleeeep. The day went by weirdly with alternative moments of being ok and moments of intense need of a good sleep. At the end of the work day, all I really wanted was to be flu-less again!!!:(

   So the evening came and maybe I should have stayed in bed, at home, but I couldn't have missed such an event so I went to see my best friend:) We had a lot of fun and we cooked and drank a lot of tea and milk and in the end the flu didn't matter so much anymore. I had my best friend with me and that helped a lot. That's why, even if we don't see our friends very often, it's always nice to know they are still there and willing to catch up with us and be around to make our life prettier:)

   I <3 my friends:)
