What is a Girl Boss

What's a girl boss?





A girl boss can have many different meanings but to me it's someone that knows her worth and prioritizes her standards; moreover, someone that never settles for anything less that what she deserves.  A girl that works hard to make all her dreams come true and no matter what doors are shut in the way of getting there she always manages to kick them open.

Part of being a girls boss is knowing that it's okay to cry, feel frustrated and feel like giving up, but NEVER doing so;  instead she gets up and tries again and again until she gets to where she knows she needs to be.

A girl boss is someone who can do just as good with you as she can do without you. This title is definitely one I have always worked hard to strive and keep.

 As a little girl I always knew I was a girl boss,  I never settled, I always wanted to try something new and challenge myself. My first girl boss moment happened when I was 15 and I applied to work at a retail store knowing I had to be 16,  I did it with the intention of blowing the interviewer away and getting the job. At the end of the interview he said to me "we would love to hire you but I see you're  only 15 so I tell you what, on your 16th birthday you can start" and just like that I knew I had unleashed the girl boss inside me.

Never let anything stop you from what you want. Nothing in life that's worth having  comes easy, as a girl boss you are meant to be challenged and you are meant to fall down but its what you do with those challenges and what you take out of those lessons that counts.

From one girl boss to another, work hard,  always believe in yourself and NEVER EVER give up.

And because we all love to see girl bosses in action here is the trailer of the new Pitch Perfect 2 movie to enjoy. Umm hello, who doesn't love girl boss movies?? I know I do.

Diario #1 Mis Alas Para Volar




Son las 2 de la mañana y aunque se que mañana tengo un millón de cosas que hacer no puedo dormír. No entiendo porque cuando se que me tengo que dormir temprano nomas no puedo. Es como si mi mente empieza a pensar de TODO ósea de TODO. Aveces me gustaría poder apagar mis pensamientos y no pensar. Pero en momentos como estos es cuando nacen nuevas metas y sueños. Quiero que sepan que ustedes me han dado alas para volar me han dado fuerza para seguir y la motivación necesaria para nunca darme por vencida. Y por eso es que me propuse a darles lo mismo. Yo las quiero inspirar, motivar y darles esas mismas fuerzas que ustedes me dan. No es fácil mis chulas pero si valdrá la pena se los prometo. Bueno mis ojitos ya no pueden mas. Me voy a contar borreguitos. Una pregunta, les gustaría si de ves en cuando escribo cositas así en mi blog? Como tipo diario? Ósea como Carrie Bradshaw de Sex And the City?? Jajajaja díganme que piensan. Las quiero.
 Y recuerden...

Sin Traducción Mother's Day


This post is promoted by Target


Mothers Day is one of the most important days of the year for me. It's the day I get to celebrate the woman who gave me life, the woman who taught me everything I needed to know about life and the one person who will love me till the end. This is the day that I like to give her extra apapachos and show her just how special she is to me. Mom was never a word we used around the house, it was always Ma, mi ma, my mom. Every year when it comes to her gift, I like to give her things that I know she will not only use, but use on daily basis. This year I headed over to Target to pick out her special gifts. My mother is big on her morning cup of coffee, like mother like daughter. The moment I saw this mug I knew it had to be part of her gift, it was perfect in every way. Now in the mornings va poder estrenar a new, cute and fabulous coffee mug. But her gift wouldn't be complete without some at home spa goodies and a candle. A mother never stops working, worrying or caring for her children which is why the theme for her gift this year is empalagarse of herself, and  she should feel chula while doing it. It is time for her to have her own moments to relax, enjoy a cup of coffee, a face mask, light a candle,  sit back and feel like the reina that she is.

What do you do to make your reina feel extra special on Mother's Day?

My Dream Quinceañera




I am so excited to share with you guys the premiere of the new series My Dream Quinceañera on the AwesomenessTV youtube channel. After watching the first episode I couldn't help but think of the moments when my parents and I were planning the most anticipated day of my young adult life, my quinceañera. I remember the excitement I felt when I turned 14 because I knew the planning of my party was about to go into full force. I knew exactly what I wanted, from the colors of the invites down to the kind of shoes I wanted to wear. This was a day I dreamt of for many years and I am so lucky and blessed my parents did everything they could to make my day extra special. We had over 200 guest, my dress was beautiful, white with lots of sparkle and my hair was down with a flower crown. The morning of my special day started off with hair and makeup, but very little makeup, some mascara, a tiny bit of eyeshadow and some lipstick.  Once hair and makeup was over it was time for the moment that I slipped on my dress, a moment I waited for, for so long. I felt like a true princess once I had it on. After the church ceremony and photos it was time to head over to the venue, where for the first time I was going to see it all setup and decorated. I remember walking in and it being everything I wanted and imagined. After greeting all 200 guest it was time for the father daughter dance which was my favorite moment of my entire night. After hours of dancing and partying my quinceañera was sadly coming to an end, We ended our night with a thank you toast and partied a little longer. Needless to say my quinceañera was everything I imagined and more.

I can't wait to see the next episode of My Dream Quinceañera series and continue to see the planning and outcome of Vivians special day. Don't forget to check out AwesomenessTV youtube channel so you too can see each episode of the series. Also, as a special treat Chrissie Fit, one of the new Barden Bellas from Pitch Perfect2 will be interviewed by Vivian at the end of her episode so make sure to stay until the end.

Estoy tan emocionada de compartir con ustedes el estreno de la nueva serie My Dream Quinceañera en el canal de youtube AwesomenessTV. Después de ver el primer episodio me puse a pensar en los momentos en que mis padres y yo estábamos planeando el día más esperado de mi vida adulta joven, mi quinceñera. Recuerdo la emoción que sentí cuando cumpli 14 años, porque sabía que la planificación de mi fiesta estaba a punto de entrar. Sabía exactamente lo que quería, desde el color de las invitaciones hasta el tipo de zapatos que quería llevar. Este fue un día que soñé por muchos años y estoy muy afortunado y bendecida que mis padres hicieron todo lo posible para que mi día fuera extra especial. Tuvimos más de 200 invitados, mi vestido era hermoso, blanco con mucho brillo y mi pelo suelto con una corona de flores. La mañana de mi día especial comenzó con el peinado y maquillaje, pero muy poco de maquillaje, rímel, poco de sombra  y labial. Una vez que me terminaron de peinar y maquillar se llego el momento en que me puse mi vestido, un momento que esperé durante tanto tiempo. Una vez que lo tenia puesto me sentí como una verdadera princesa. Después de la ceremonia de la iglesia y las fotos era hora de dirigirse a la recepción, donde por primera vez que iba a ver todo decorado. Recuerdo que era exactamente todo lo que quería. Después de saludar a todos los 200 invitados se llego el momento para el baile de padre e hija, que de hecho era mi momento favorito de toda mi noche. Después de horas de baile tristemente see llegaba el fin   de mi quinceañera. Terminamos nuestra noche con un brindis de agradecimiento. Mi quinceañera fue todo lo que me imaginaba y más.

No puedo esperar a ver el próximo episodio de la serie My Dream Quinceañera y seguir viendo la planificación y el resultado de el día especial de Vivian. No se olviden de visitar el canal AwesomenessTV en youtube para que puedan ver cada episodio de la serie. También, como un regalo especial Chrissie Fit, la nueva Barden Bella de Pitch Perfect2 será entrevistado por Vivian al final de su episodio, así que asegúrese de quedarse hasta el final.
