adele
is possibly the most inspiring singer i’ve ever heard. she has a way to get me to sing and cry in one song. i love her music and how each song has a story behind it. her lyrics are so real and full (if that makes any sense at all).
right now i’m listening to “someone like you” which is off of her new album. it’s so beautiful and i’m literally crying in...

turning to a new page
so as I was going through marie’s tumblr (as I periodically do), I decided to log back onto mine to talk a walk down memory lane. quick question:
why didn’t any of you tell me how crazy i was?! seriously. i was re-blogging quotes and writing posts that would make a stranger think i was a widow or make my mother think that i needed a shrink.
i’m going to start writing on here...

"How to Deal"
“You have to learn to walk. You have to learn to talk. You have to wear that totally ridiculous hat your grandma bought you. You have no say in the matter. And when you get a little older, even though you get to choose your hats, you don’t get to choose what they put in those meatballs in the cafeteria, or when to fall in love. Sometimes things happens and you just have to deal.”

I don’t like it when people flip-flop, so I try to avoid doing it. I’m usually able to make a decision and stick with it but I can’t seem to do that with one specific situation. I know which decision I should choose, but different things keep making me reconsider, remember the pro’s instead of focusing on the con’s (even though I’m starting to realize there...

It's a shame...
…that I’ve accepted the fact that I’m mediocre at everything. My mom tells me that I sell myself short and she’s right. I’m too afraid of messing things up or trying really hard and failing anyway. I’ve trained myself to think that I’ll be happy by just doing enough to get by. I don’t feel that I’m good enough at anything to really immerse...

Dear Boy, (part 2)
sofiasitterson:
Yes I’m picky, and I have high standards. If you stick around, you’ll see I’m worth it. You’re a pain in my ass, but at the end of the day I still want you to wrap your arms around me as if you’ll never let go. Hold me tight, but be gentle. I want to cuddle. Watch movies with me and be gentlemanly — meaning get up and make some more popcorn in the middle of the movie (even if you...

New Year. New Me.
yeah, I know everyone has been saying this, but I’M SERIOUS! I learned a lot about myself in 2009 and will be going through some huge changes in 2010. In two weeks I will officially be a second semester senior - SO PUMPED! That means I’ll have more time to read, scrapbook, and take in everything I’ll be leaving behind. I also started learning how to play the guitar over the...

Dear Boys,
sofiasitterson:
Stop trying to make us think you don’t care. WE WANT YOU TO CARE. If we walk away, you’re supposed to come after us. Stop ruining the cute moments. Stop rushing kisses. We want to be kissed passionately, but slow it down. Prove to us that every second matters. If you love us, tell us. Stop playing with our heads. Don’t tell your friends about the physical stuff and leave out the...

My favorite time of the year.
We are expecting over 80 family members and friends to meet us at my uncle’s house for noche buena. I am so blessed to have so many amazing people in my life. I don’t say it enough - I love my loud, huge, crazy, fun, Cuban family!!!!!!
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! (:
Don't get me wrong...
I have my dreams, my hopes, my aspirations, but i feel bad for those who can’t see the obvious. They are so blinded by ”love” (usually lust) that they stop themselves from seeing what’s right in front of them. Open your eyes and accept the truth. It may not always be pretty or what you want, but it’s a part of you. You can’t just ignore things. Sometimes...
