Today was such a beautiful day in Lisbon I couldn’t resist going out for a walk. I didn’t have my camera with me but I had my phone so that had to do. May have gotten a little carried away (oh yeah, there are a lot more photos haha) but sometimes I just forget how amazing and beautiful my city is. It’s always fun walking around and trying to look at things in a different way.
Oh, and that last photo. When I got home I saw I’d received a package with a dress I ordered a couple of weeks ago. I think it looks pretty cute. Who else tries on their clothes immediately after getting them in the mail? It’s impossible to wait!

Wordless Wednesday.

These have been my days. I’ve been pretty busy, between editing photos, (trying to) work and dealing with some personal stuff. Y’know, life. I haven’t been taking that many photos with my DSLR, but I’ve made it a point to use my phone to sort of document some of my daily life.
As you see there’s been a lot of delicious food (I’ll come back to that on another post, later this week), spending time with the fam, etc. Nothing too extraordinary.
I’m getting antsy for the arrival of real Spring. Sun, beautiful days, dresses! I think I’ll have to wait till May though.

What about you, how have you been?
Hope you’re having a good monday!

April Goals

Apr 9, 2012 / Posted by Diana / 1 Comment

So, I know I’m seriously late (first, because it’s APRIL, and second, because it’s the 10th) but I was reading Carina’s blog and thinking: “Yeah! I should totally do a monthly goal list too!”

I’ve been meaning to do this for a while but as we all know, I put the PRO in procrastination.

Thing is I do believe making these lists will help me work towards certain things. I guess it has to do with the fact that if you choose perfectly reasonable and doable goals, there’s really no excuse not to do it. And there’s no getting discouraged which sometimes, with big ass goals, I do.

There’s nothing like a bit of self-improvement!

  • Read two books. I’ve been getting back into reading after a couple of years of not being able to concentrate long enough to read one book. I’m taking it slow (obviously) but it’s a good thing.
  • Go to the gym at least 3 times a week. Not much to say about this one, it is what it is.
  • Update my resumé. Again, totally stolen from Carina, but I’ve been procrastinating on this for a long time. DO IT, DIANA.
  • Start organizing things for my first solo photo show. Self explanatory.
  • Go on a photowalk once a week. I think this one’s really important. It allows me to be creative without restrictions.
  • Spring clean. I have a LOT of STUFF around the house that I don’t even remember exists anymore. It needs to go.
  • Easter!

    Hey guys! Hope you’re all having a great Easter sunday.

    It was a pretty good day here. Lots of food, of course!
    After the family lunch, the girls decided to go out since it was such a beautiful and sunny day out. We went to Sintra, which if you’ve never been there you’re really missing out.

    I didn’t take my camera with me (it was a last minute decision!) but I did take some pics with my phone so that’s better than nothing.

    I’ll be back this week with proper updates and decent photos!

    Currently.

    Obsessing over: Game of Thrones! The second season started this week (and the second episode leaked the day after cof cof) and I miiiight be obsessed. The theme song is my ringtone!

    Working on: Getting organized. I’m the most disorganized person ever, so this is a big deal. I hate living in messy places though, so that’s some encouragement. :p

    Thinking about: How grateful I am for my family and that we are still together and healthy(ish).

    Anticipating: The birth of my nephew, Lucas. My sister in law is getting very pregnant and in June I’ll finally meet our boy. I honestly cannot wait.

    Listening to: Music! Finally! Let me explain. When I’m down I tend to not listen to any music. At all. Which is really awful, I know, but I just don’t care for it. One of the many bad things anxiety/depression does to me. Yeah, that’s a talk for another time.

    Eating: Healthy food! Or trying at least. I ate like crap for months but I finally had enough when I noticed my jeans were getting tight. I don’t have money to buy a new wardrobe thank you very much. I’ll just work a little harder at the gym and eat a little better and things will go back to normal. :)

    Wishing: I had money to visit all my friends abroad, because I miss them all like hell.

    What about you, what have you been up to recently?
    Thanks to the lovely Danielle (and her friend Megan) for providing the inspiration for this post.

    ALSO, as you may have noticed from the pictures I am now on Instagram! Add me if you’d like, I’m sure I’ll make quite a few updates there: dianaramosphoto :)

    Have a great day!
