A small trip to Santiago de Compostela + Update ♡

Oh hi!
I'm sorry for only writing now but as you know Christmas was two days ago and with the preparatives, preparation of gifts, family time and all of those things, there was no time for me to come here.
But I am back again and this will probably be my last post of 2015 so I'm already wishing you a happy new year and that everything goes right with you!
Anyways, how was your Christmas (if you celebrate it of course, I don't mean to offend anyone haha)? Hope it was full of joy and that you got to spend it with the people you love and make you happy! Mine was pretty good actually :).

Well, today I went to Santiago de Compostela, in Spain, with my mom and her friends and I must say that I missed it already because I haven't gone there since this summer when I did part of The Way with my bestie!
I took lots of photos and I'm going to show you some of them :)

This was me today by the way :)

I finally got a decent photo in front of the cathedral!! Every other time that I went there it was raining so I've never taken a photo like this! Yay!

And very close to the cathedral there was this beautiful carousel! 

I also managed to convince my mom and my friends to help me find a froyo (frozen yoghurt) store which I knew was very close to the cathedral but had no idea which way though haha. Eventually we found it and I had my froyo :3

So, in a really brief way this was my day today! It was actually very fun and I'm excited to go there again!! :D
Hope you're all okay ♡ 

I'll write soon!

With love,

The Maccabees appreciation post ☼

Hello!! I decided to show you one of my favourite bands since I feel like not enough people have heard about them.

Well, I'm going to talk about The Maccabees if you haven't noticed yet haha

If you like bands like The Foals, The 1975, The Vaccines, Bombay Bicycle Club, The Cribs, etc, you might like The Maccabees!

I though of showing you some of my favourite songs from them!

1. Something Like Happiness

2. Toothpaste Kisses (this is actually my favourite)

3. First Love

4. Pelican

5. Went Away

So, these are my personal favourites from them, but if you liked these songs just take a look at some others and maybe you'll find a new band of your liking :)

I'll write soon!

With love,

Hey guys!! Sorry for being so absent lately but school tests are finally almost over so I'll be able to post more regularly! 

Since December just started I thought "hey, why don't I post a December's Wishlist?" and well why not? So here it is! These are some of the things that I've got my eyes on and I though that maybe some of you would like them too.

Since my last post so many things happened! 

Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 came out and it's not like I didn't like it (I really did!) but it could have been so much better... They sticked to the book, but not on the most important things. Like, they represented well the things that happened BUT the feelings and emotions that were described on the book weren't the same that were described on the film, and I think that it would have been much better if they sticked to that part of the book too.

By the way, I'm 16 now hehe! My birthday was amazeballs and I got to spend it with the people I love, which made it even better. Also, my cake was cat themed, HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!?! And there was an UNICORN PIÑATA!!!!!!!!!!! (that was a very important information okay lol)

Also, good news are that my grades are getting better than last year's! That is really great and I'm excited to get the rest of the tests' results, and I think that will be this week ahh!

If you haven't noticed, I made some changes on my side bar. :)

I added a 'get an email when I post' thingy and all you need to do is to write your email and click submit and everytime I post you'll get an email notification. I also added the followers thing (it's on the bottom of the side bar) so you can now easily follow the blog, publicly or privately yay

BY THE WAY!!!! Use the code "sxssymars" at checkout on http://aila.storenvy.com/ to get a 10% discount (they sell really cute and affordable clothes/shoes/accessories)! 

I'll write soon.

With love,
