Melificent

Weekend Highlights

Saturday was a highly anticipated day in the world of Melificent. I was finally going to see The Deathly Hallows with some of my closest friends at Cinebistro, a 21+ theater that serves you dinner and drinks as you enjoy the movie. Without giving away any spoilers (I know a lot of people have yet to see the film), the movie was nothing short of incredible. It stayed true to the book and really did a great job evoking all the intense feelings that are swimming all throughout the series closer. I’ve always complained that watching the movies does not compare to reading the books, but while watching Part 1, all the same emotions I felt while reading the book came right back up to the surface. In other words, I was a big heaping pile of loser. I don’t even know how I’m going to handle the second chapter, perhaps with an industrial size tissue box.

It’s hard to believe this was snapped 3 years ago.

Three years ago, I woke up feeling happy, excited and anxious. But mostly so incredibly lucky to have found someone I could call not only my lover, but also my best friend. Someone I could trust with all my deepest, darkest secrets. Someone that loved me for who I truly am, not who I’m supposed to be. Someone that understood me better than my own flesh and blood. Someone that made me realize that love is real, and sometimes it hurts and knocks us down, but it is the one thing in life worth living for.

Agustin Sanchez, thank you for coming into my life and for making me the happiest girl in the world.
Me and you, just us two. <3

Hiatus

Melificent will be going on a brief hiatus, but we will be back – promise!

Lots of things are going on in my world right now, and unfortunately, the blog is going to have to take a backseat as I shift some priorities around. But do not fret! As the very wise Mrs. Potts once said:

“It’ll turn out all right in the end. You’ll see.“

Weekend Highlights: Halloween Edition!

This weekend was so much fun I could hardly stand it, but I didn’t expect anything less. It is no secret that I have a pretty serious love affair with Halloween and really enjoy dolling up for the festivities. Saturday night we had the annual AgencyNet Halloween party in their new digs. I finally unveiled my secret costume that I had been concealing for several months now – Maleficent! Thanks to the Academy of Glam, I was able to really perfect the look with some kick ass makeup. All other pieces were picked up randomly through Amazon stores and American Apparel. I’m really happy with the way the costume turned out and it was a little too fun to be evil for a night. Although, I have to admit that perfecting a villainous bitch face was tough!

Weekend Highlights

Saturday we spent the night celebrating my glorious hubby’s birthday party with our closest friends at home. I think it was a complete success and everyone seemed to have a very good time. A very good time. Such a good time, in fact, that I spent the majority of my Sunday morning cleaning up after the mess. But it was completely worth it. We got to spend time with some of our favorite people and there really is nothing better than seeing the love of your life enjoying his special day. I love you honeycakes and hope this year is even better than the last! <3

Because of the festivities, I couldn’t attend the Vampire Diaries Tour in South Miami with Ian Somerhalder and Paul Wesley, but a couple of my buddies did and shared their experiences! You can read all about them here and here. Sounds like it was a great time filled with many a smoldering look and flirtatious winks.

And next weekend brings even more fun: it’s Halloween!!!!
I have an elaborate costume party to attend on Saturday night and then plan on going trick or treating with my nephew Sunday. What plans do you guys have for the holiday?
