Fun downtown

Lately I have been super lethargic. I have posts ideas in my mind and everything but as soon as I open my computer I don't feel like doing anything.

My days have been pretty productive lately. Last Monday Mima and I went downtown to have some ice cream and shop around. I bought some beautiful (and tons!) stuff in H&M and then I studied for my MCAT.



On our way down the little hill where we live there are this pretty apartments with the most beautiful terraces!




Mima. Isn't she the cutest? I love her white hair!



We shared something they called "Danish Ice cream", which is just vanilla ice cream with chocolate syrup.



On our way back instead of going up the hill, which is pretty steep, we take this tiny little red train that goes up and leaves us a half a block away from home. It is so comfortable and we are lucky because every time we are ready to take it, it is there! We have only had to wait 5 mins. max. 



My new shoes! (please ignore my pasty white legs) I have been looking for this kind of shoes forever! I saw them a long time ago when I visited Chile but they were sold out everywhere. That day Mima and I went to the main train station basement where they have cute shops and coffees. As we were looking around I spotted them! I jumped up and down when I saw that they were super cheap! I am actually thinking about buying them in black too. They are super comfy. 




We always walk in front of this gorgeous house on our way back from the train. I really like it! I want my house to look like this one. It seems so full of history and I am already dreaming about how I would decorate it. 



This is the bell/clock tower that is right next to our house. It gives the time ALL day. It gives the full hours, the quarters, the halves, and the three quarters. I like it because I never have to ask what time it is to my grandmother anymore. The only bad thing about it is that at 11am and at 7pm it goes crazy for 15 mins. I have asked my aunt why but she doesn't know. Mima and I are planning to go in one day and ask. 

I will post another update very soon. This post took me like three days to complete! Every time I am on the computer I get distracted by new shows I am starting to watch. Does anyone have suggestions of good shows I should watch? I already watch 90210 (is like my secret addiction), The Big Bang Theory, Vampire Diaries (hello Damon!), and Community. I just started Little Pretty Liars today. I think next might be Dexter. So if you think I would like something don't hesitate to tell me!
