10 of my best ideas!

And here are 10 of the best ones wich is the 2peas Blogger Challenge for tuesday:

10. Saying to my mom she loved my nieces more than me so she would buy me stuff, I was 12 sneaky and greedy (and jealous too), not proud of it but I did it.

9. Instead of being a "Quinceañera" I went to study english to Canada for a month at a summer camp, yes I was nerdy like, that studying during the summer was fun for me.

8. Never learned to iron so no one would say, could you please iron this for me....sorry don´t know how (sneaky again soooorry)

7. Learning Paint Shop Pro, at the time it was to make siggies, but it changed my life in so many ways, I´m so glad I learned to master it....now I want to learn Photoshop.

6. Scrapbooking!, Is the perfect creative outlet since there is not a "right" way to do it and is a very forgiving craft is awesome for me you don´t have to be perfect just make it look good (at least to you)

5. Speaking english, oh my god the things you hear when someone who doesn´t know you speak english starts yapping, good stuff, ohh you also can understand a whole side of the population and is awesome to know another language (but the gossip ohhh my!)

4.Waiting until I was older to have sex, I simply did not want to be an statistic or a teen mom, not that there is anything wrong with that just wasn´t my style so I waited until I was financially secured and could take the full responsability of having a baby and then I did well you know lol.

3. Getting a boob reduction when I was 18, one of the best things I did and so happy I did it, so worth the pain and discomfort.

2. Blogging! I have met so many awesome people, learned awesome stuff, joined cool challenges and started actually making layouts again that is one of the best ideas I´ve ever had, all the blogs I read inspire me and I love reading about other peoples lifes and day, one of my favorite parts of the day for sure.

1. Loving me and accepting me, this year I have taken more pictures of me than the last 10 years all together, in my 30s I´m really starting to love me, being proud of me and realizing I´m quite the hot chick when I want to, love looking at my pics if only I could get a cheek reduction now! LOL!

And on that note I made this layout tonight. Today was a very weird day I was feeling very antsy and had like ants crawling on my skin so I took the afternoon off and came home and scrapbooking made me feel a lot better, still feeling a bit weird but much better.

I made this layout my first 8.5x11 and it was a lot of fun to do, took those pics today and love how they look I´ve been taking tons of pics to scrapbook during our crop on saturday.

(ETA A better picture)

I used MM black cardstock, American Traditions Lime Texture cardstock, Oriental Trading Chipboard and MM clear alphabet "Funkie Lizzie".

I think the same can be said about learning some Spanish and living here in the US. Especially since I work for the BMV, it's always fun to listen to people talk who think I don't know what they're saying. Granted I don't know much so I can't hold a conversation, but it's always fun to bust people for not translating and just telling someone the answers to the questions I have to ask hehe.

Love that list, Lida. You are such an amazing gal, and I love to read your blog. Your English is phenomenal too - how cool that you went all-out to learn that at summer camp. You are such an inspiration in the way you take life by the horns and go for it!
