Do you remember how some girls at school were always naturally better than you in picking up foreign languages? It used to frustrate the hell out of me how Marie over there was busy blathering away in French, c'est this, alors that, tant pis whatever. Meanwhile, I was struggling to translate "Cecilie liked cake" (stupid verbs!). Well, I think I'm not a natural at being a nice person. Oh I'm good at certain aspects in the same way I was good at the listening tests in French class. I'm not entirely bad! Just that the all-around foreign language of "niceness"? I'm not an A student. And I may always fluctuate between a B and C grade. But this is okay with me. Because in the end, no one in this whole world is perfectly nice, nor perfectly bad. That's what makes things interesting round here, n'est-ce pa?
you know who else isn't perfectly nice? MOI. xx
ReplyDeleteI love the necklace and dress!
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
bubbleees!! bubbles bubbles! Sorry, I'm easily distracted *cough*
ReplyDeleteSince I was a kid, I always believed I had a nasty mean streak in me. Yeah, I've had my moments..
*N'est ce pas?
ReplyDeleteHaha, oh snap.
You cutie pie, la perfection is boring anyway.
ReplyDeletePfft, niceness is overrated. :) I always wonder if those really really nice people are genuinely like that or if it's some sort of cover...
ReplyDeletei adore that necklace!
ReplyDeletehave a lovely weekend :)

gorgeous cake photo!
ReplyDeleteNo one is ever always nice. When I meet people who seem always nice, i always wonder what are they 'really' thinking!? or who do they take the baddness out on.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos as always.

What a feat it must be to be perfectly nice. I often find it amusing when not-so-nice things flitter through my thoughts. Then my amusement either yields a chuckle or a cringe ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely little snapshots you've shared here today. Jumping in your covet-able lace flats, one fantastically fine necklace, bubbles!, cake! ♥
love these photos!
ReplyDeleteand we can't all be good at EVERYTHING! thankfully! it would suck if we were all just straight a students. B-O-R-I-N-G!
you are so right... this post reminds me of a book i read in primary school... hating alison ashleigh...
ReplyDeleteYour blog is so adorable! I really like the floral layout. And your necklace has interesting geometric beads
ReplyDeletebeautiful pieces and i loove the feel of this!
ReplyDeleteMy language teachers always say that you can´t always excel in everything when learning a new language.It´s either you write it well,speak it well or understand it perfectly well when you hear it and yes, practice makes it perfect. ;)
ReplyDeleteAnyway,just wanted to say that I covet your necklace and the cupcake too. ;)
Happy Sunday, Ana!
Another delicious post!! Love your flats!! I tried to learn French and failed miserably! Or maybe I give up too easily :-P xxoxoxoxoo
ReplyDeleteBubbles, lace flats (LOVE!) and cupcakes - this post is just so lovely! :)
ReplyDeleteI like your blog. Super cute. Your necklace and shoes are great.
ReplyDeleteYou're right!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures!
Peace and love!
I looove this post! You look so aborable.
ReplyDeleteYay, you're wearing the lacey flats from the last post, right?
ReplyDeleteAs far as being nice or being bad, i guess if people treat you bad, you end up growing up into a stronger person. At least that's what happened to me. I just believe that life will give it back to them.. "what goes around comes around".
Thanks a lot for the comment on the apartment, you can go as crazy as you want on the caps on my blog, i call the shots ;)
That truffle thing looks yummy!
*sigh* my sister speaks four languages and I'm lucky if I get half of a goddard movie...so yes, I understand that completely!
ReplyDeleteI'm proud of her though, and sometimes that makes up for it!
Your blog dazzles the eye. These are getting me in the mood for summer! (Even though its fall for you) I am definetly not what one would consider "nice" its taken me awhile to come around the fact i can still be a good person without being "nice"
