Eyes Lie

I don't believe in love at first sight. Eyes Lie

The idea that with one single glance you can see that imminent connexion and feel that magnetic pull is a mere piece of fiction. It doesn't happen in real life. People fall in love through sharing, talking getting to know someone. In real life people do not fall in love through staring at a pair of overly expressive eyes.

It just doesn't happen. I mean sure you might like someone at a first glance. But Love? No way. Love requires work, effort. Its not an instant sensation that overtakes you.

I don't believe in Love at first Sight! Eyes Lie

I like reading about it, and I like watching those cheese romantic movies where the characters "Just know they are meant for each other". But In real life? Please! it be like believing in unicorns or frogs that turn in to kings.

Like a few months back when I saw a guy with gorgeous penetrating eyes, I didn't fall in love. Sure he has those perfect eyes that you can't ever really be sure if they're black, or gray or maybe even green. A smile that melts the coldest of Icebergs. A strong but sweet voice that sounded fit for a knight.

Whatever.

I simply shook my head and focused all my energy in to  ignoring him.

Love at first sight does not exist. Eyes Lie.

When I kept bumping in to him the next week and the next the energy to ignore those eyes became weaker and weaker. I gave in, I liked staring at those eyes (even though it was just from afar). I felt myself falling in to those eyes that seemed to speak without words.

A weird twist of circumstances made it possible for me to stare up close in to those eyes. I am still in shock from the effect they had over me. He could have asked for anything, I'd done it all to stay in presence of those eyes.

Eyes that seemed to say it all but at the same time were such a mystery.
Eyes that felt as if they'd known me all my life. As if with one glance he could know my deepest secret my darkest fear. It felt as if I'd been completely undressed in his presence.
It felt as if he was seeing the best of me. I felt my best under the stare of those eyes.

Whatever...

I insist this isn't a fairytale, love at first sight does not exist, and since its not a happy ever after scenario I confess he must have not felt the same pull I did.

I thought he did.

For a second there I almost forgot Love at first sight is just a myth, a story, a work of fiction.. 

In reality There was no connection, no Love, just a pair of eyes. 

A pair of indescribable, expressive eyes. Eyes that seem so genuine, so open and excited. Eyes that seem to tell a story.

Love at first sight does not exist. still a pair of eyes seem to keep haunting my dreams, and  invading my every thought.

I guess Eyes Lie.

Or maybe not?

I guess I can only hope.

They say eyes are the windows to our soul, if this in fact is true then Eyes cannot Lie.

I guess eyes can lie, still I hope.

I hope those eyes will stare at me again.

Consequences

This Texan girl is finally back from her amazing Sin City vacation and I must confess that Las Vegas has taken its toll on me.
My feet are swollen, my skin is completely sunburned and I've gained some weight. Lets just say that having three fooled nights filled with girl drama, girl bonding, shopping, drinking and gambling can be extremely exhausting.The trip was not at all what I expected:
                                                       It was ten times BETTER!!!

I need to mention that this trip was the first one where I had to do the whole boarding an airplane and checking in to a hotel on  my own. The whole dynamic terrified me. It made my stomach twirl and acke (Not just because I have a deep hatred for airplanes). But to my surprise I did well, I passed security, took my plane and waited 4 hours in Vegas while the rest of my party arrived. and through the whole ordeal I was at perfect peace (Saying a few prayers here and now whenever I thought I couldn't handle it).

But enough of silly details lets get started with the trips highlights:

First of all lets mention the fact that I loved having my own room. Being able to watch TV at full volume, setting the temperature at my own like, jumping on both beds, being able to air dry, model my outfits in embarrassing poses in front of the mirror, it was all absolutely thrilling.
I know it sounds completely selfish but I've always thought that there is no point in writing something that I don't mean (Fiction or Non-Fiction it has to be something I mean). So to be completely honest I loved not having roommates!!!

Second the food is delicious. The buffets are huge, sort of the banquets I imagined the Greek gods had. And there is food everywhere!!! Every hotel has different types of food from the crepes Suzette at the Paris, or the Gelatos at the Mirage. There are millions of choices for all kinds of tastes. The New York has a pizza place that opens 24hrs its the perfect solution for when a tiring night of dancing ends and one is completely starving.
Its not just the food its the drinking. 
The large variety of alcoholic smoothies one can consume there is astonishing. And the fact that you can continue your stroll around the strip under the hot sunny day with the cold deliciousness in your hand is just heaven.I know that if you don't know me very well this might make me sound like an alcoholic but the truth is I hardly ever drink, I mean I enjoy cocktails but I have never in my life found the idea of  drinking till i pass out or hurling something fun, which is why i control my drinking as much as possible limiting it to feel a slight buzz but no more. Having said this let me explain that under no circumstance was I going to pass on the opportunity of drinking in sin City!!! Still I kept my values on check and at no moment did I pass out or vomit.

The third highlight of Sin city are the clubs.
Each hotel has a different club and each club has a different style.
Dancing is the best part of each club, there are like million dancing styles.
The lights are usually so dim you can sway your body in any direction, just for a while let go of all your inhibitions, your fears your issues and just sway. The music is so load you literally feel your heart change its beat, your whole body begins to pump blood faster than if you'd just finished a run and the whole ordeal just make you feel...Alive!
It doesn't matter who you are with, who is watching or anything. All that matters is that for those few music filled hours you are just forgetting it all and swaying jumping even yelling all your basic instinct take over and dancing becomes not just part of the experience but the entire point.

Downside the drinks are way expensive, every guy there is only interested in one thing,
Not that there is anything wrong about going to sin city in search for some physical fun but I still find the whole hooking up with a complete stranger, Gross. Not only because of the obvious diseases that might be involved but because of the whole lack of emotional connection. I know I am completely old fashioned I understand that now in these current days, sex and making love are not one in the same. But still when I lose the big V I want it to be with the old traditional values, love marriage fidelity.

OK Ups getting way off topic. Where were we? Right, Vegas.  The shows are incredible!
Seriously they are truly wonderful. I went to see Menopause the musical (I kid you not) it is the most hilarious thing ever. imagine four slightly over weighed grown women singing about Hot Flashes. It was just to die for. Not to mention that one of the actresses was the one who lend her voice as Belle in Disney's beauty and the beast (One of my absolute favorites).

The next show we saw was Criss Angel's Believe!!!
I can't even begin to describe how impacting this show was.
I guess I should begin by saying that until I saw this show I had not even the slightest idea of Who Criss angel was. The theater for his show is in the Luxor Hotel it is breath taking. its huge, and gothic and filled with really scary bunnies (Before this I didn't even know bunny's could be that scary, except for my red eyed freak I had when I was in second grade)
The point is Criss Angel is seriously scary he can do stuff that I can't even begin to wrap my mind on. Seriously cutting a women, appearing levitating. It was all so shocking! I have no more words to describe this so please just check him out. (Plus he is way Hot)



This pretty much summarizes the whole Vegas trip. I am not mentioning the private drama (Cause trust me that with an all girls trip there is bound to be some drama) because well its none of your business anyway.

So let me end by saying Hiya Austin!

Sin City

So this Texan girl is getting tired of the routine. Every single day the same old thing: Work. The place where the heat is exhausting, the clients are lunatics and  food is lame. The place that has transformed her in to a completely annoying cry baby.

Well this Texan Cowgirl has finally had enough!!!

I am taking charge of my situation and I will be taking a Texas break and will be heading off to "SIN City" Nevada!!!

The tickets are bought and in 12 more days I'll be drinking  a margarita while I play with the slots.
I have never gone to las Vegas. At least not at a legal age so I can't even begin to imagine what kind of crazy wonders I might find.

Probably all kinds of debauchery!!! The list include drinking, eating, gambling and most definitely DANCING !!!

Now all I have to do is pack!!!
...and for that I must go SHOPPING!!! After all Sin City is a place I cannot attend  with my usual attire. It requires much more elegant designs and sexier fabrics. Not to mention the amount of perfume and heals I will need to purchase.

But It will all be worth wild.

Girls night out for three straight nights !!!

Things I need...

Tickets... Check
Id....Check
Sexy group of crazed friends with which to dance..... Triple Double Quadruple check
Sexy cloths.... In Progress
Heals... Check


So See you later suckers!!!

12 ore days and its paradise!!!

=D

The View

I have currently been introduced to another Austin site.
It is a lovely place on top of one of Austin's high points.A stone path leads the way. It overlooks Lake Austin and is surrounded by evergreen trees. Big houses that will probably always be out of my budget can be admired from this point. Boats can be seen as they cross by creating Small waves.
If you keep on walking through the stone path you come on to a part where you can from afar take in the lovely down town area. I find the buildings in that zone to be majestically designed.

It still amazes me how Austin can feel sometimes like a big worldly hectic city and other times give the impression of being a calm peaceful small town. I love the combination its as if it allows you to be in the NOW and at the same time gives you a chance to breath in and collect yourself  making it easier to keep on going.

Where to find The place where you can find this marvelous view? To be perfectly honest I must confess that  I can't really give directions towards it because to be honest I have absolutely no idea how I got there. And most likely won't be able to go there again without my guide.
I guess we all need a someone like that once in a while. So here is my advice get yourself a guide and go see the view cause there isn't anything better than a great view while in Amazing company.

PS... Kayak riding is next on my list. I can't really say I am from austin if I ahven't taken the time to actually visit the Lake. Right?
