The Carrie Diaries


oh mahhh god!! <3 So "The Carrie Diaries" has finally comed out! and I watched the first 2 episodes :)
For those of you that loved "Gossip Girl" I'm pretty sure that you'll like "The Carrie Diaries" because it is produced by the same producers. So basically, "The Carrie Diaries" is what happened before "Sex and The City". It is the story of how Carrie Bradshaw (Bradshaw! That's such a cool name!" first begun her journey into New York City :) What I also like about the series is that it is set in the 80s. So, AnnaSophia Robb plays Carrie and I do think she was a great choice because I really like her as an actress and she's doing a good job with her character. Carrie is this teenage girl who recently lost her mom. All her life she has dreamed of going to New York City ( MEEEEE! THAT'S ME! I LOVE NEW YORK!) and now her dram if becoming a reality. Her dad allows her to do an internship in NY but she also has to continues her studies is her own town so it's back and forth and so on.
Carrie BRADSHAW is alsoo super into fashion so she wears the weirdest clothes ever. She also has a sister,
I love Dorrit. I love her outfits, her makeup everything. She's also nothing like Carrie, she more of like an emo child: smokes and does rebellious things.But she's still really cool! And then there's SEBASTIAN <3
Sebastian Kidd, the school bad boy. Has a reputation for being thrown out of schools! He is Carrie's crush and her first kiss as well :O but her father has prohibited her from dating him so I'll have to watch the next episode to find out if she will obey him or date Sebastian! The series is very cool :) It's only been two episodes and I'm already addicted! The clothes are awesome, the characters are funny and cool and it's set in NEW YORK :) lovee, Matilde

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld


Hey guys, so I recently finished "Uglies" by Scott Westerfeld and I was surprised of how much I actually enjoyed it, I kept avoiding it because my friends told me that it was average and there where other books I should read but it was awesome.
Scott you are...
Uglies is set in a far future, supposedly three hundred years from now where the government provides for everything. Including a plastic surgery that everyone receives on the sixteen's birthday, the surgery transforms you from a repellent ugly to the society's standard "pretty". Once you are a pretty, you cross the river dividing the city's Uglies from Pretties. So first off there's Tally Youngblood who, like most Uglies, have been dreaming there whole life of becoming a pretty.Her dream is about to come true because in a few weeks she will have the operation. Her best friend is Peris who has already had the operation and is living his bubbly life in New Pretties Town. Tally always talks about how close she was to Peris and how lonely she feels without him so she sneaks into New Pretties Town and goes to his house, or to some party where he was and talks to him. At first I didn't like him, they were suppose to be best friends but from the scene he almost seemed scared to see Tally and tells her that she can't be there, to go back to Ugly Ville and meet again when she becomes a pretty. I would have been like...
But Tally kept her promise about not going back to New Prettis Town until she was turned. Then she found a friend, Shay :)) Shay is this strong minded girl who is not really into all that being turned "pretty" stuff. Shay and Tally are the same age so there operation is set on the same date but Shay keeps acting strange and makes the most of there "ugly" times, hover boarding and sneaking out to the ruins. The ruins are the only thing left from the Rusties which where the people that ruled the world before all the Pretties and new society. The Rusties where pretty much like us, they didn't have rings that talked and gave you advise, rooms that would automatically give you food or clothes from a hole on the wall whenever you asked but most importantly the Rusties didn't have an operation that turned you pretty and this seemed completety horrible for Tally. So one night before the big day Shay asks Tally if she wants to run away to the SMOKE... this super secret city ( its not really a city, but I will use that term anyway) where rebels who don't want to leave under the constant control of the government hide.
Tally, of course denies because being Pretty is the most important thing for her. It's normal for her to think that, after all she had been living in a place where to most people that is the most important thing. But Shay leaves her a note written in a secret code that explains the way to the Smoke. The next day Tally is ready for her operation but a very peculiar looking man comes to her and says "There's something wrong with your operation."
It's awesome and there are so many other characters that I didn't get to describe but I totally reccomend it ;)

Italy 2012


Hey bloggers, How's your Christmas going? I'm back home for the winter break, and I didn't realize how much I had missed Italy until I arrived! Yesterday we went to the market,
the people were so kind, and there was the warm,family spirit that you find in this traditional markets. Elderly people cracking jokes and the fruit sellers advertising their stand. I bought a bag of strawberries and cherries which I had being dying to eat since I was in KSA. They were delicious, and I plan on buying more today considering that i finished them in a matter of minutes! I decided to post a picture of everything I eat, so be ready:) Bye for now, Matilde

City Of Bones


Hey everyone, I feel bad that I have been neglecting my blog so here's what I've been up to: I started reading the "Mortal Instruments" series by Cassandra Clare, and I am loving it. The first book, "City Of Bones" was amazing. The novel is written in third person, and Cassandra did an amazing job in making the plot seem extremely realistic. Another thing I adore about the book it's its character, they are so well developed that by the end of the book you will probably fall in love with them. The book is about a fifteen year old girl, Clary Fray, who think she lives a normal life. Not knowing much about her past, Clary spends a lot of time with her best friend Simon (whom I love and no nerd could ever be as cool as him). Clary's life changes completely when she sees a scene that oddly enough only she can see. She meets Jace Wayland (the sarcastic hottie that will turn her life upside down, not in a Twilight way because she doesn't let Jace own her, but in another way!) It is a great book, I'm currently reading the second book of the series "City Of Ashes". I definitely recommend this book to everyone. Lot's of love, Matilde

Holidayss!!

Hey guys, what's up? I've been meaning to write on here but Tumblr is extremely addicting. For all the Directioners out there, I hope you are not still crying over Little Things because I am. Anyway, I still have 3 more days of holidays yay! :) I spent half my free time on Tumblr (it recently had a melt down because of Little Things and it was just hilarious and extremely emotional) and the other half reading "The Throne of Fire" by Rick Riordan which you all know is one of my favorite authors. The book is really good and I'm getting really into it so I set my self a goal, I have to finish it in 9 days and that leaves me 3 more days to finish it (i'll let you know how it goes ;) The other half (quarter??) of my holidays was spent watching Modern Family with my sister, i am totally loving that series too bad i didn't listen to my sis when she told me to watch it sooner! ;) Reminds me I still have a Sketchbook project due next week, probably should get started with that... I chose a theme tho: The Medici Family. I'll talk about it more on another post and post some pics of the drawings (when I get started and I dunno when that's gonna happen) Shouout to... ED SHEERAN for writing the most beautiful song in the whole entire universe! i love youuu so much :* ( if you don't know the song I'm talking about: Little Things sang by One Direction written be Ed ) until next post, matilde :) p.s I apologize for the craziness of this post.
