Olivia Palermo, May I Please Borrow Everything in ur Closet?

Olivia is New York's version of Paris Hilton, she is a socialite and like every other 'famous-for-no-reason' person in the states, she has a reality show called the City. Personality-wise she's horrible and is an example of people you should avoid in the fashion industry...however, I think she has incredible style..if only i could raid her closet for one day..hmm... Enjoy the pics!

I Love Mi Familia.

So..I just got news my family is coming to visit this weekend. Im really excited to see them its been so long! However, when family is here that means one thing: DISTRACTION. I for one do not know how to work when I have people around, because to be honest I enjoy their company more than the books! Surprising eh? hehe. Anywaaaay, so my goal is to finish most of my work this week, so that when they come I can spend time with them without feeling guilty.

OH! I forgot to mention! I handed in one report last week, what an amazing feeeeeeeling. That's got to be the best feeling ever. However, as usual after handing it in I was beginning to question my effort and wishing I had done more work on a few sections, but then I remembered I am not one to regret...that is why I have decided that I did what I can do and hopefully I get rewarded accordingly.

So...this week I have a study support meeting to help me organize my outline for my other project. I did a LOT of research over the past few weeks that helped me understand the topic. Basically for this report we are asked to choose two stores, one high street store and one high fashion store. After choosing them we have to reaaaaaallly study the brands and compare them. This includes understanding how each store buys, sells, markets etc. and their unique strategies. Its actually quite interesting because most of this stuff you cant really find online so its up to us to decide how they trade, so really i've just been reading a few journals about the brands and visiting different branches every week to get a better understanding of the store's atmosphere. I kinda felt like a detective walking in and secretly taking down notes on my blackberry hehe !

Got to get back to work!
P.S. I'm loving the Christmas lights all over london!

Victoria's Secret: A Magical Journey...

I am dying to watch the Victoria's Secret fashion show! The show will be aired on CBS December 1,2009. Thanks to style.com I got to see a few pics of the event, I love how they took the best trends from the past seasons. It was obvious a lot of their designs were influenced by the main designers of the year such as Balmain's shoulder pads and Vuitton's comic print! Enjoy the pics. xx

"Don't Scream There are so Many Roads Left."

So i've been working on the whole positive thinking theory, and honestly, it's actually working for me! See this is my strategy: (I don't recommend it for everyone because I am aware everyone works differently, so don't blame it on me if my strategy backfires on you!)

If you have a lot of work to do, number 1 rule: don't stress. Why? Stressing is just a waste of time and energy. Calm down and organize yourself. Once that's done you can start working. Don't think about how much work you have to do or what you haven't done, just DO IT (Yes Nike I'm using your slogan). Eventually, the work that needs to be accomplished will get done. YES, it will. Just like I managed to hand in every project on time in the past, I will manage to hand this one in on time.

Hmm...

I Live it. I Breathe it. I Express it.

Push the Negativitiy O.U.T.

Is it only me or is there too much negativity in this blog? That's NOT GOOD! I usually favor to look at the bright side of most situations in order to get through the rough patches in my life, THEREFORE, I will bring that positive energy in my study life as well :)

So what if it hurts me? So what if i break down?
so what if this world just throws me off the edge?
Dont care about all the pain in front of me
Because im just trying to be happy :)
(Happy By Leona Lewis)

I am a big believer in positive energy. I also believe that you can do whatever you want to do as long as you stay positive throughout the journey. Your mind, body and soul are all interconnected. If your soul is pure and your mind is focused, your body will then function like its supposed to.

Think Positive.
Smile :)
Live. Love. Laugh.
Treat yourself every now and then and enjoy the moment.

So True!

Lost the "Push".

I enjoyed blogging when i first started this blog, but its starting to seem like such a hassle nowadays. School is really taking all of my time and energy these days especially since deadlines are coming up and im not feeling well. However, what I find weird is that instead of stressing out i've been reacting in a weird way. By that I mean ive been trying to avoid my assignments.

"out of sight out of mind"

Ive been trying to avoid seeing my books and papers, because it just kills me with guilt that I am not fully on track. I think the lack of lessons and one on one tutorials are making me feel a bit self concious of my work and that is why Im lacking the "push" to accomplish more work. However, I have been trying to get myself back on track by managing my time, I started working on a critical path today which I think will be very helpful. I also booked an appointment with study support to clarify a few questions I had.

School aside, I feel like there is so much going on around me. which I will not mention for personal reasons, so it is so hard to focus. School is starting to be a side thing rather than the main focus, and it shouldn't because this is my last year!
