Como La Flor

i know i just updated, but i just realized today is the 10th anniversary of the death of my first fav singer, Selena, and i love her too much to throw this in on tumblr in a midst of photos and quotes.

Nothing is something.

“We all sorely complain of the shortness of time, and yet have much more than we know what to do with. Our lives are either spent in doing nothing at all, or in doing nothing to the purpose, or in doing nothing that we ought to do. We are always complaining that our days are few, and acting as though there would be no end of them.”

This weekend has been very inactive, yet ive enjoyed it quite a bit.

Had ANOTHER snow day on friday....slept so much.

On saturday Ric came thru to my area and we caught up by spending hours at Mickey D's, i swear i be having the best conversations at Mcdonalds. Good to know can still talk to Ric for hours though :)-oh and for those of you who dont know that was DOMINICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY!! and wow of all people who was i with...the biggest hater LOL

Oh i made a Tumbr due to the influence of Cindy and Kamrun.

My Tumblr

Ive slept half of today away and have spent the other half being insulted and picked on by Pimento.

will post soon with my goal list, similar to the one discussed by Demetri Martin in his "If I" show. check it out if u have no idea what im talking about, the man is crazy talented.

Me in a video?

“We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.”- Albert Camus

So while reading the NY times online yesterday i came across this article(click me to read and find links to vids lol) about how Tufts University invited its applicants to attach videos to their applications to give the admission people a better idea who they were and to show off some of their skills. It made me think about what would i include in a video of myself if i wanted a college or just another person get a real sense of who i was. Maybe i will make a video just cause? hmm. idk.

Just felt like sharing that especially since some of the readers of this blog just recently applied to college :)

ps Albert that was the Xaphoon Jones remix of Money to blow. if you want it hit me up next time we're both on oovoo so i can simply file transfer it to you =]

that is all till next time!

Vlog?

uhm these will get better as time passes?

k se yo.

Lent!

"Remember that you are dust and to dust you shall return"

So I've been meaning to update and everyone seems to be updating today so i figured its time i get on that.

I must say the past week has been a BLUR. I barely remeber the time ive spent in class, in fact i was barely in class these few days haha. I visited Kamrun thursday over at NYU with Aura and had a nice lil chat for a couple of hours. that 4 day weekend i was looking forward to? Came and went with nothing to be said of it. Yesterday i had a very pleasant day at Seans house along with Cindy,Pimento,Jeanine,Syeda, and Caroline. We hung out played taboo and went to eat at Unos. It was nice.

So for those practicing Catholics out there, you may have recognized the quote at the beginning of this post as one of the two or three things we might be told when we get ashes placed on our foreheads on Ash Wednesday. So lent has begun today, i have given up facebook, limited my use of Aim and no meat on wednesday in addition to the mandatory fridays? sounds like a bit but im looking forward to it. Lent is or rather was my FAVORITE time of year and i LIVED for Easter mass and then looked forward to a UTM retreat that would occur afterward. But things have changed.

Only thing i want out of this lent...the connection i once felt to God, that brought a smile to my face, had me walking through snowstorms to get to sunday Mass, and had me blasting Christian music while everyone else played the latest rap song.

Same silly face lol.

But got my ashes to remind me of what i will end up as.

(It actually looked like a cross this year!)

Decent week, horrible weekend.

First full week of the semester...like my classes they get me thinking. There are also alot of interesting kids in my classes. hmm.

this weekend blows, i have a head cold. feel like shit. and wasnt able to do any of the work i had planned. working on an essay now cause i MUST get this done. hope this week goes by fast since its only 4 days, and hopefully it goes well. that is all.

that is me sick in bed. NOT happy.

Spring Semester!

Started the new semester on thursday and i must say i think i lucked out once again with pretty cool professors. My classes all seem pretty interesting, think i will enjoy my English class the most and probably Stat the least lol. WE SHALL SEE. But yea this semester is so different from last which i started all scared and shy now its like watever and i have a friend in each class and am looking forward to making more this semester!

oh and I'm already ready for my next long weekend or break. smfh.

ima go write some letters to the loves then watch some tv and maybe start an essay?

till next time.

oh and to quote my abuela :" la quien no trabaja se llama doña nadie". LMAO so true.
