It's the life in ur years that count! :)

It's THAT day, the day you were brought into this world... Or at least it was my day on Friday, June 10th. One year older, finally 21! Which can sometimes be frustrating and seem ridiculous coming from a culture where turning 21 is not the biggest deal as we are free to drink at 18. However, even tho I get to spend my birthdays in Honduras (as I’m out of school by that time), after 3 years of college it’ll be nice not to worry about it anymore, especially when most of my friends are 21+ haha.

So I didn’t get to experience a “typical” 21^st U.S. celebration haha, but I had an incredible time celebrating it with all my family and friends back home, I’ve never been away from them on my birthday and I just love having them with me, wouldn’t be the same otherwise. However, in a perfect world I would bring all my friends from the US to come celebrate with me here or vice versa haha maybe someday I can make it happen, maybe when I get married it may happen haha.

This is the outfit I wore for my bday celebrations, perfect for going out for drinks w/my friends and dancing!!! Check it out on LOOKBOOK as well!

My friend and I decided to celebrate our bdays together as his is the day right after mine and even tho we have known each other for over 15 yrs we have never actually done a joined party. It was an amazing idea, we had a blast with everyone and it definitely has been one of the best birthdays I’ve ever had. We started at a lounge and headed to the “party” street (if I may call it that) for some bar hopping, basically the go-to place, the only street filled with bars and clubs in our capital, Tegucigalpa. Here are a few pics from that night!

Some of my fave ppl :)

Lady Gaga attends Honduran Fashion Show.. or so I wish..

It's such a beautiful and amazing day in Honduras and that just puts me on the best spirits! I just woke up, yes I know... it's 11am, but hey! I'm on vacation so I better be racking up on sleep hours! I'm also trying to adjust my sleep pattern to resemble a normal person's, as every summer I end up waking up at 2pm and going to bed after 4am.. May as well become a vampire.. haha.

Anyway, last week my friends and I went to a fashion show and I thought it'd be nice to post some pics from that event. It was a cool event except for the fact that we waited around for 2 hours before it started but I didn't mind it too much as I was catching up with my girls! The event was sponsored by Remington, so the girl's hair was done using their products ( hair curlers, irons, etc) and they were wearing clothes from a Honduran boutique located in a couple of our malls. Also, we were excited to find out that by turning in a raffle coupon we had filled out we were given a gift bag with our own little pink&brown ceramic hair straightener and also a keychain or miniature flashlight. I have included a picture of it below :).

Of course, as every other fashion show it lasted 15 min and then there was a raffle. Sadly, neither my friends or I won any of the good prizes (ipad). Then they were serving some hor d'oeuvres (I have to admit I had to google the spelling of that word..) but we decided to head somewhere else for dinner as there was a long line for the miniature food and our empty stomachs weren't gonna wait.

P.S. I only have one pic of all of us but I'm hoping some other ones will resurface from the photographers who were taking photos of the guests before the event. Also, since I wasn't able to sit on the first row and seeing that this was the first day with my beloved new camera, I hadn't learned to blur the background or anything like that haha you'll see what I mean below.

Love'em! <3
