  • My goal for my b-day! :)

    duminică, 13 februarie 2011
    Actually, my birthday was already (on Friday :D), but I'm thinking quite seriously of fulfilling my goal (which is to lose weight).
    More specifically, i want to lose 5-7 kg (11-15 pounds) in 2 months. :)
    How am I going to accomplish my goal? Bhahaha, I have no idea. :) jk..
    I'm going to eat healthier and exercise 1h /day starting tomorrow. Aaaand drink a lot of water.
    P.S. I find it kind of ironic how I already tried once losing weight, and after 1 week I reverted to the old habits :-s
    But I promise,  that this time I will finally lose the extra weight.

    How would you describe yourself as a person?

    miercuri, 2 februarie 2011
    Hmm...let's see how would I describe myself..
    Ok, so for the start, I have to say that I'm not an easy friend-maker. I have no idea why...I guess I'm afraid of making phony friends and then be disappointed. (well...it's not like it hasn't happened before)
    I definitely don't like being told what I can or can't do.
    I like to roll the dice.
    I usually just cut loose.
    When I have long stretches of boring I usually watch a movie, go out or just watch some youtube videos.
    Stubborn!! If I want anything to happen...it better happen and if it doesn't I'll fight until it does. :)
    I love puppies. Awww!
    I love making cookies...and EATING them! Muhahaha! :D
    Undecided. I mean.if somebody asked me "where do you see yourself in 10 years from now", i would have absolutely no clue what to answer. O_O
    I am enthusiastic about taking up new challenges in life. :)
    Fun loving person! 
    Aaand..I think that's it. ;) 



    Yummy Desserts!

    joi, 27 ianuarie 2011
    I know it's been a long time since i last post something on this blog. :-s I'm sorry.

    In today's post, I want to fascinatate you with this super delicious chocolate chip cookie recipe.
    This is my favourite cookie ever!! 

    So, here's the recipe:

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) with rack in center of oven. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
    In the bowl of your electric mixer (or with a hand mixer), beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add the white and brown sugars and beat until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in eggs, one at a time, making sure to beat well after each addition. Add the vanilla and beat until incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
    In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and beat until incorporated, adding the chocolate chips and nuts (if using) about half way through mixing. If you find the dough very soft, cover and refrigerate until firm (about 30 minutes).  
    For large cookies, use about a 2 tablespoon ice cream scoop or with two spoons, drop about 2 tablespoons of dough (35 grams) onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake about 12 - 14 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Cool completely on wire rack.
    Makes about 4 dozen - 3 inch round cookies.
    Note: You can freeze this dough. Form the dough into balls and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Freeze and then place the balls of dough in a plastic bag, seal, and freeze. When baking, simply place the frozen balls of dough on a baking sheet and bake as directed - may have to increase baking time a few minutes.

                                              ENJOY THIS DELICIOUS DESSERT! <3

    luni, 3 ianuarie 2011
    Here is, again, the time to welcome the new year!!
    Without any regrets, the new year has come, and it's time to remember all the good or bad things that have happened in the last year! :D It is time to forgive and to move forward! It is time to spend MORE time with family & friends! AAAANNNND  it's the time to reflect on the changes we want (or need) to make and resolve to follow through on those changes. :D
    Sooo, that being said...what are Your New Year's Resolutions??

    P.S. I hope you had a lot of fun on the New Year's Eve with your friends or families!!

    Christmas time is here!

    luni, 20 decembrie 2010
    I may not think like a full grown up person, 'cause i'm still a kid, but i was thinking to give some ideas to the people who (unfortunately) are spending Christmas time alone :(
    1) So a thing you could do on Christmas vacation would be watching Christmas movies (watch the list below)- what's more beautiful than watching a Christmas movie while drinking hot chocolate?
    2) Listen to Christmas carlos!! - christmas carols a good way of bringing to life the Christmas Spirit
    3) Go traveling to the most beautiful places! (for example Viena- in every year there is a Christmas Fair)
    4) Do something exciting, like skating, skiing, snowboarding or other fun winter activities.
    5)Think about cooking some fun treats! :)
    For now, this is all i've got, i hope it'll will help someone.
    MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!

    5 things i'm obsessed with!

    sâmbătă, 27 noiembrie 2010
    1. SUPERNATURAL - definitely my favourite show ever! I watched 4 seasons in 2 months!! ihihihi :P
    2.KINDER DELICE - I don't even know why am i still wondering i'm a little bit too curvy. :D
    3.CLOTHES - NO COMMENT! lol :D
    4.MUSIC - Who doesn't like listening to music?! I personaly do, especially to R&B, House, Pop music. :)
    5. DALE CARNEGIE BOOKS- -Oh Lord, i never thought i would like that much a book. I totaly recomand any book from this author. Believe me, it's worth your time. <3

    I'm feeling so guilty!!!

    joi, 18 noiembrie 2010
    The best quote that fits me right now is "I've been on a diet for two weeks and all I've lost is fourteen days" . I haven't lost any pound!!! I'm such an unmotivated person. Even though my purpose was to lose 2 lbs/week, i haven't lost any because i don't have the motivation.
    I guess that's the only probelm why some people can't lose weight. Shame on me and those people!!! o_O
    Btw, I would kill for a slice of pizza right now! :-s 

    I want to lose weight! :D

    duminică, 7 noiembrie 2010
    [ ] Lose 20 pounds
    [ ] Lose 10 pounds
    [ ] Lose 5 pounds

    I don't want to lose weight very quickly, because that means strech marks, loose skin etc. I'm gonna come back with my results in aprox. 2 months. :)
    So everyone who wants to lose weight but doesn't have the motivation, let's say "Never, never, never, never give up!” like Winston Churchill once said. :)

    It's Halloween!

    duminică, 31 octombrie 2010
    SORRY! That was probably so OFF TOPIC, because it's HALLOWEEN!!! :D
    How do you celebrate Halloween? In what will you dress up later?!
    I think i will be a vampire!! Aghrr!!! :P
    HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE! <3 Boooohoo!!!

    How could you be so hearthless?

    Why can't some people be thankful for those who help them every time they can? Why is this indifference? And on the other side...why people still remain next to them even though they don't give a s#@! about them? Why so much suffering, if they don't care anyway only about themselves? Why?! Why?! Why?!
    -Is the answer love?! Or are they affraid of being alone?!
    Woody Allen-
    “To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love. But then, one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer; not to love is to suffer; to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love. To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy. Therefore, to be happy, one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness.”

    What stresses you out about SCHOOL?

    duminică, 10 octombrie 2010
    I don't know why, but school was never one of my favourite things. Even though I had and HAVE 1 or 2 friends i can trust at school, there still are others whom I truly hate! I think this is the first reason why i hate school, because there are only mean, spoiled and heartless people who don't care only about themselfs! Ok..and the second reason is the stupid things you learn at school. I mean seriously, why in the world do you have to learn HISTORY?! I mean seriously, leave the past in the past!! Or Latin? Nobody speaks that language anymore! Anyway, i don't know if anyone reads my blog, but if someone does, DO YOU LIKE GOING TO SCHOOL? IF NOT, WHY DON'T YOU? :)

    Wo am I and why did I make this blog?

    vineri, 8 octombrie 2010
    So, my name is Alexandra and I'm 14 years old.  I love going out with "my friends" & listening to R&B, Hip Hop, Rap and PoP music!
    Because i don't really have real friends, just friends who are always ussing me to get something, i made this blog to confess my feelings. I think i'll post every day on this blog, or at least i'll try to. This blog will be just like my online jurnal, and i'd like to look back on my blog after 5 years to see what i've done in my past and laugh at the funny storries! :)
