I can and will rock

I'm glad that I have such a good set of friends, who have supported me and are always there. Emi, I know you read this and I wanted to acknowledge your great patience, I can't wait until your skinny self comes home to have the best of times.

I played Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock, at a friends house today. At first it seemed impossible to master, but I rocked. There were pictures taken so I shall update this entry when I get a hold of them.

Tomorrow is going to be a long day. My wish is to get 4 more tickets for my graduation just so everyone can come. I know I might not get them all, but I will use my charming personality. Hehehe.

I met a new trainer at the gym today, very nice.

More?

After thinking it was time to heal, I get hit with another punch. One that shows lies, complete disrespect, and conscious bad decisions. I wanted to write this, so I won't forget, although it's hard to forget since it was unexpected.

Now, it's time to heal.

Good things

Since I'm not typical happy Cristina I've decided to make a list of things that have made me happy this past weekend....

1. My niece's beautiful graduation (F is for feather!!) She helped recite the alphabet in English, and danced, she is such a great dancer. She has rhythm and an amazing knowledge of how her body moves. I wish I could dance like her! I'm so proud, she's amazing and ma petite fille (my little girl)

Nota a los boricuas:
uno de los niños que se graduó es hijo de CHEVY, e hicieron un intermedio de reggueton en el que el niño se vistió como su padre y le decía "Chevy, dale el gabillo!" Y habian bailarinas, no eran cafres, estaban bien vestidas y bailaron más hip hop que reggueton, asi que eso estuvo bien. Pero, diantre, no lo podía creer y a la vez me gustó y a la vez me sentía incómoda/entretenida. Guau, guau!


2. Saturday with the family, all day.

3. Making miis! My oldest sister got the wii console plus wii fit and we spent all afternoon playing, making miis and laughing at ourselves. My mom's mii and Lucy's mii are hillarious! They're identical!

4. Working out, 4 times a week. I'm so sore.

5. ¡La parada de Walgreens en el expreso! (The Walgreens Parade on the highway) so weird, but funny.



6. Coffee with Meche, and an awesome time chatting it up.

7. Hopes that I might get extra tickets for my graduation. Please!

8. French! Just because.

The night for giving up

I couldn't say it, but last night was terrible. There was a great deal of hurt that was involved, one that still lingers within me, and probably will for some time. I can't believe how someone could replace me this way, someone who I consider to be special.

Not a good day.

Eres un charro (y yo peor porque me agradas)

Hoy comenzó el verano de los ejercicios. Oficilamente estoy inscrita en un gimnasio y mi meta es tonificar mi cuerpo y adquirir mayor fuerza para comenzar la escuela de medicina con buenos ánimos. Hoy fue el día de brazos, y ya me duelen. Pero, es un dolor rico, tal vez, ehhhh, si si.

Quiero disfrutar este verano al máximo pero hay una personita que está obstruyendo la felicidad plena. Si puedes leer esto probablemente sepas a quien me estoy refiriendo. Ya se acerca el fin de mes, hasta donde tiene para tomar su decisión (¿que si vienes o no charro de la vida?) y bueno, no se hace más facil cuando está comenzando a salir con una chica, a la cual le agrada. La frecuencia de sus salidas está aumentando y yo, como saben, me pongo "mala". Pero bueno, espero que se decida, (lo cual será un no, eso espero) y yo pues pueda dejarlo ir con dignidad. Es dificil cuando quieres a alguien, porque dejarlo ir no es un juego de muñecas.

Tengo dolor de barriga, ouchies! Espero que se me quite.

Todavía no se si voy a votar por Obama o Hilary en las primarias estadounidenses. y menos por nuestro gobernador.

Quiero jugo de acerola.

I'm done?

It still hasn't set in that today was my LAST day as an undergraduate student at the Río Piedras Campus. Wow, I can't believe it's time to move on and start a new chapter in my life. I'm ready to take on more responsibilities and finally study what I wish to be in the future. It is scary, but it's what I've wanted for a long time.

After finishing my last Human Biology exam I called Hector and spent the rest of the evening with him and Chi. It's great to have time for good friends.

Tomorrow it's time to pick up my gown and tickets for the big graduation, and then a fun FREE classical music concert at night. Woooooo!

The time I spent at the UPR made me grow so much, I learned a whole lot of things, inside and outside the classroom. I'm glad that even in tough times I still kept pushing, I'm also glad I didn't change majors, hehe, even though I'll miss French too much. I'll probably head on over to the French Alliance offices and become a member, it looks like a great place to unwind and meet cool people.

I feel relaxed, optimistic and ready to let go of anything that will block my path. It's not going to be easy, but I'm pretty sure that I'll be fine.

¡Ay Caracoles!

Lo dice una señora sentada a mi lado mientras intento calentarme del frío de una oficina de un médico, en las afueras de un hospital. Gracias, queridas bacterias, por obligarme a resistir frío, ya que mi carrera me involucra estar dentro de hospitales y oficinas, bueno, me tendré que acostumbrar.



Lo mismo pienso al ver este girasol gigante en las afueras del patio de mi vecino, realmente el sueño de cualquier insecto y/o pájaro polinizador.




Guau!
