Home is whenever I'm with you.

Oh, 2010....

I pretty much just lost my job....this is just fantastic.

It's Almost Over

This year has seriously been the most emotionally exhausting year of my life, so far at least. I've experienced the lowest of lows, but I've also experienced a lot of good. It has been a roller coaster ride for sure. I'm ready for this year to be over. I really don't want to go into detail as to what happened earlier this year, but it was definitely life changing. My life is going to be different for the next couple of years. At first I was really upset, it seriously felt like it was the end of the world for me, which in reality, it wasn't. A stupid mistake was made, and I've learned from it. I'm actually kind of glad it happened. With that and being flat broke, to not being able to transfer out of my college because I didn't pass one class, it was just overwhelming. Everything just happened all at once and I was so unhappy for a few months. I felt totally pathetic, like I had nothing going for me. I felt like I hadn't accomplished anything with my life. I've never felt like that before. I then realized that everything happens for a reason. Things could have been way worse, and maybe everything that had happened was some sort of sign that it just wasn't the right time to start a new chapter in my life. Eventually things started to look up. I got some money from a car accident I was in when I was 19. I got promoted at work, and school started to look promising.

I still feel like I'm in a funk though. Because I'm still dealing with the consequences of what happened. I'm just waiting for it to be all over. I'm waiting for this year to be over and start a whole new year, fresh! I'm really excited actually. I just wanted things to change, but now I'm going to have to wait, and it's okay I guess. Things will eventually fall into place. I was planning on doing so many things! And now things have been put on hold, and it just sucks. I just hope 2011 will be nicer to me. I am so lucky to have had my family and Christian by my side. I just want to feel proud and accomplished.

Another Year Older

Busy

Busy past few weeks! I went from having 3 days of work, to working 6 days a week. I'm so happy I have this weekend off to celebrate my birthday! Tomorrow is my little sister Briana's birthday. She's having a little shindig at our place with her friends. She's turning 20! It's so crazy to me how she's not little anymore, and has a job and all that stuff. I know we're only 2 years apart, but still.

Saturday I will be celebrating my birthday! My friends and the BF are meeting up at my place and we're going to have some food and drinks before we head out. It should be fun. Piano Bar here we come! I'm actually scared for my life. I really don't want them shoving drinks down my throat. I want to actually remember this birthday, unlike last year. Turns out, two of my good friends aren't coming. I'm kind of bummed since they said they would come. Oh well, I kind of figured.

Sunday I'm going out to dinner with my family. My sister and I always celebrate our birthdays together, so it's our birthday dinner. We're going to The Hungry Cat in LA. It's a seafood bar! I love seafood! It should be cute and delicious.

And Monday is my actual birthday! I'm having lunch with my friends at our local pizza joint called Lampost Pizza! Their pizza is soo good! I'm definitely going to cheat that day and eat all the pizza and bread sticks I want. My birthday only comes once a year, so why not? I don't eat those kinds of things all the time.
Then, Christian and I are going out at night since he works during the day. I have no idea what we're doing, but he better plan something nice. ;] I'm kidding, I don't care what we do as long as I get to spend the last half of my birthday with him.

I'm sure I'm going to have tons of pictures to show!

My Birthday is in 2 weeks!

And I don't know what to wear! I don't know how it crept up on me, but it did. I won't have time to shop at all now that I think of it. Maybe on my breaks at work but, that's not a lot of time. We're going to a bar in Hollywood called Piano Bar! Should be fun, it looks like an old speakeasy. So I've been online window shopping! Here are some of the dresses I'm thinking:

I'm note sure what amount I'm willing to spend on a dress....but it iss my birthday!

Shoes I want for Fall

If only I could afford all of these! I'm sure I'll splurge on one pair...but which? It's not cold enough to wear boots just yet. I wish I lived somewhere, where the leaves actually changed colors, and I could wear all the coats, scarves, and boots I'd want! Oh well.

Hottt

Yesterday it was ridiculously hot! It went up to 113°! I had class in the morning and it was already too much. I got home and spent most of the day inside with the AC blasting. I only let my dogs out to do their business, and other than that, I had them inside. I was suppose to have dinner with Christian, but he got out of work later than he had anticipated. We're having dinner tonight though, so it works out. We're grabbing some Mexican food at this place in Downtown LA. He's been there before and says the food is really good. I'm ready to eat some yummy food! My friend Vanessa is picking me up in a bit. I get to hang out with her and one of my best friends, Ramon! I'm excited. We all haven't hung out in forever since we're all so busy with our own lives.  I get to meet his new pup as well! <3

Little Treats

So I also went shopping yesterday! I didn't buy too much. I bought a new wallet, a cute tee, and a cardigan. All for under 30 dollars, I love getting cute things on sale. I also bought a new shade of lipstick! I bought a shade off the Rouge Coco line that Chanel has come out with, called Mademoiselle. I lovee the color! It goes great with any skin color. It's like a vintage rose color. I'm wearing it in the picture above along with the awesome vintage necklace my grandmother gave me. Here's a better look:

So if you're looking for a new shade, I totally recommend this one!

Weekend!

This weekend was a little too much. I usually have class saturday mornings and have work, but this Saturday I didn't, so I was excited! One of my best friends, Vanessa, had a party at her loft in Downtown LA on Friday. So I wanted to enjoy myself  a bit. I got a little too tipsy to say the least and made a fool of myself in front of my parents once I got home. In the end, no one was mad, but I did get made fun of,haha. The hangover was enough to punish me all the way; probably the worst one I've had ever. Lesson learned. :[

Saturday I went to the LA County Fair with my cousins and Christian. I think I woulve have had a lot more fun if I didn't feel bad as I did. Either way, it was fun and I ate things that I probably shouldn't have. :/

I'm soo happy that I had yesterday off! I fixed up my room a bit. I'm thinking of adding some more things to my it. It's plain. We remodeled it not too long ago, and I haven't had the chance to actually decorate it.  I lovee the color of my room, but my wall is so bare! And I really need a new duvet cover. Here's what I'm thinking:

I haven't been able to find a duvet cover I really like; this one is the one the I like the most, it's cute, and goes with my room.

I'm thinking of doing something like over my bed. I have a ton of prints that would look great up there!

I'm not home too much, so my parents usually leave my mail on my dresser. I think this would be a cute alternative. Plus, who doesn't love owls?

I enjoy vintage posters, or vintage looking ones. I think this one is neat, and I found it for a lot cheaper on a different website.

I think a vintage wall mirror would look great along  with the frame arrangement over my bed.

Another poster! I love Paris, so I figured this would go great with the theme I'm going for. I don't like to smoke ,or endorse it, but I like the poster!

Love Chub!

Just did 30 miles on my bike! I'm trying to lose the love chub that I have acquired since last year. Which is not a lot, so it's definitely doable. I haven't been hitting up the gym as much as I should! So I'm trying to get back in shape in time for my birthday. I'll be turning 22 in a month! Time goes by way too fast.

John's Wedding

Christian and I, all dolled up for John's wedding!

Pittsburgh, PA

Tomorrow I'll be taking off to Pittsburgh, PA! I'm going with Christian for his best friend's wedding. I'm a little nervous! I get to meet all his really close friends from colllege. I'm sure it'll be fun, and I'll be fine, but it's always a little nerve wrecking meeting friends for the first time. I've obviously met Christian's friends that live out here in LA, but these are friends he's made through out the years since he's moved here from the east coast. So now, I get to meet his BEST friends. Wish me luck!

Archie says Hello

I swear, Archie is the biggest brat out of my 3 dogs. It's really hard not to love him. He makes me laugh so hard! Such a silly pup. <3

Why little fox?

Well, I'm short! And my boyfriend calls me fox! Not because I'm a babe, or anything. ;]  It's just his nickname for me since I'm little, and cunning, like a fox! Therefore I dubbed my blog Little Fox. Plus, I love foxes, they're cute and are delicately pleasing.

I will make a proper update soon, I haven't been in the blogging mood lately. Partly because I don't want to be complaining all the time...

High hopes

If all goes well, I'll be back in Paris in a year and a half!

Lucky

Sometimes I feel so silly. I am so lucky to have a boyfriend like Christian. Is it bad that I sometimes would rather spen time with him because I feel like most of my friends let me down? Maybe it's bad...I do hang out with my friends, but I always feel like I'm the one putting the effort into doing something. I'm not always with Christian. I'm always left out.

Anyway, today was a weird day for the most part. I'm glad I got to go out for sushi with my family and Christian. Asahi always hits the spot!

1st post, New blog.

I guess the one thing I told myself in starting a new blog was that I would be completely honest. I've always been too scared of saying too much. But I'm at a point in my life that I just need to do it. I'm tired of holding back. I've been through some life changing events in the past year so I just feel like I need a fresh start.

First thing's first! Hi, my name is Yesenia, I'm 21 going on 22. I'm a student majoring in Psychology because I don't know what else to do with my life. I'm an assistant manager at a clothing store...I don't like my job too much. I have a younger sister, my parents are still together after 23 years, and I'm in love with a wonderful man named Christian. He is the best boyfriend that I could ever ask for. Also, I have three dogs! Dexter and Emma, who are both beagles, and Archie who is a maltipoo and still a pup!

For now I leave you with this, I was going to write some more but I'm feeling a little lazy. <3
