Shortest Month, Shortest Post..

When it all comes down to it, you have to realize that time is not always on your side but you can will it to be if you let all the silly small troubling things roll of your shoulders and you take the things that matter the most with arms wide open.

Just smile.

February, how I love thee

Welp, February is here and there are hearts, anything and everything covered in red. Mon ami, mon cheri, je t'adore, je t'aime....ok, Pepe Le Pew just ran across my mind.

Just finished all my homework.

Le Sigh...
I love me.

And I LOVE drinking out of juice bottles with a straw because it reminds me when I was a little kid and used to drink out of juice boxes. :)

I love walking on the edge of the sidewalk and pretending to be in a circus walking the tightrope. I'm 24, yeah, I know.

I love pizza. That is all.

I LOVE that my dad kissed my arm when I gave him a hug first thing this Saturday morning. He loves me.

I LOVE that i'm THIS close to graduating.

I love today...and this song...♥

How often...

...do you find yourself asking what you want out of this life?

Do you want more skills, talents...even love?

I do. It might be human nature to want more and more and yes, MORE. It's like you are so hungry and you see this five pound burrito and you finish it, then you are thinking what you might have in the next hour and then the hour after that one and then the next meal....and so forth.

It's an everlasting hunger and sometimes it makes me mad because I wish I could be satisfied already. Then, sometimes I think that if I didn't have this everlasting yearning...life would simply just be too simple. I'm so happy that I make goals and have dreams pretty much daily but then it all becomes too overwhelming.

one day at a time right?

right. :)

CNN, ABC, CBS, SHO?

Yesterday, I probably had the best laugh on a Saturday morning.

So mother had left for the doctor yesterday and when she came back, I asked her why she needed to go. She replied by telling me that she need to get her yearly blood test and I asked for what. She said just to sees if she had any blood diseases or HBO.

She meant HIV.

I, by no means, mean to make fun of my mother, but this was hilarious and one of the biggest fails in the world. Aside from what happened this morning but that's another story. P.S. Don't ever talk bad about anyone, bc when you least expect it, they could be hearing your whole conversation during a webcam conversation....



Laugh. At least once a day.

I pity this kid...

Sometimes, people do forget that.

January 24, 2011

A beautiful little angel was born on January 24, 2011.

I met her today and as I held her, I thought to myself "Look at this little creature, with no worries in the world, she has no thoughts about anything. I wonder if she dreams of colors? Does she dream? She hasn't really used her eyes so how can she possibly dream about a thing?"

Isn't it amazing how a little human being that has taken shelter in a woman's womb for nine months all of a sudden starts living a whole different life once out of that little warm home.

A year from now, she'll be able to see her momma and poppa.

Two years from now, she'll be walking and asking for things and maybe saying more than just ma, da, or wua wua.

Three years from now, she'll be running with the rest of the kids and making friends.

Four years from now, she'll be ready for another chapter. Kindergarten.

Then.......endless possibilities.

But for now, she laid all snuggly between my two arms, making little baby noises and smelling like the most delicious of deliciousness. For now her life was simple, quietly simple and making people love her with her coo's.

Oh and her name is Luz, which means light. How fitting is that? Beautiful little Luz...

Little angel, sweet little angel...I hope you are blessed with a beautiful life.

I think...

I think you should write love letters more often.

What? You don't have someone to write them too?

Write them to yourself.

I think you should say thank you every morning that you wake up. 

Why?

Because you were able to wake up in this life and not in the next one.

I think you should say thank you every night when you go to bed. 

Why?

Because you are safe and all snuggled up in your bed, and who doesn't love that?

I think that when you say hi to someone, you should look them in the eyes.

What? You are in a hurry and can't stop to make conversation?

One good look takes 2 seconds and smile takes half of one. Besides, everyone wants to see that face of yours.

I think that you should say I love you at least once a day to everyone that is close to you. 

Why?

Because what if you don't ever see them again?

I think that if you crave something to eat really really REALLY bad, you should go and eat it. 

Why?

Why not.

I think you should paint more often, sing more often, dance more often. 

Why? You're too busy?

Make time. Sometimes with the extensive vocabulary that there is....words cannot always describe how you feel.

I think that when you get upset, you should let it go as soon as possible.

Why? You are super upset?

Stress takes years off your precious life, stress that will probably only last one day but will take days that you will never have. 

I think you should listen to me.

Sister Sister

I often think how horrible it must be to be an only child because you don't get to talk to anyone when you don't agree with your parents or you are having problems with something random or want to borrow clothes. But then I look at myself and how I have sisters and how probably it's not that horrible to be an only child.

Example A:

Mom is picking me up from work and my sister is in the car with her.

Me: Hi mom. Hi Belen.

Mom: Hi my love.

Belen: Hey.

One second of silence:

Belen: Hey Marce, so we were watching home videos today.

Me: Uh huh.

Belen: and seriously, I think there should have been a law against those things you called "eyebrows".


Ouch.


Example B:

Me changing in my room and Diana and Belen are on my bed talking about their lives...

Me: Turn around I need to change.

Them: Yuck.

Me finishing putting on my underwear and they open their eyes. I turn around and Diana practically screams out the following.

Diana: Eww, you have cellulite.




Double Ouch.


Example....ah, you get the point.

Nevertheless, If I didn't have them, they would not have provided these chuckle moments.


Lessons to be learned from these examples:

1. Burn all videos of your childhood.
2. Lock the door to your room and bathroom.
