Visitors

Today a lot of people came over it was a lot of fun. My Uncle Agustin and his family came to pick up my grandma. She is going to stay with them for a while before she leaves for Mexico. Then my grandpa Rafael and my Tia Nena and Tio Juan Carlos dropped by. It was good to see grandpa Rafael,even though he isn't my grandpa. He is my maternal grandfathers brother, but when my grandpa Jesus died he took care of my mom and her family so I love him like a grandfather. It was a lot of fun to have a family reunion today.

Today I went to the beach with my family. My mom's sister(my Aunt) and her family came with us. It was a lot of fun. We all had a splash fight and we covered my little brother with sand. We ate and then continued to play.I decided that I wanted to get a tan,but i fell asleep in the shade. We left and came back home because my grandmother was going to spend a week with my Aunt. It was because my cousin was going to be doing her first communion and my grandmother wanted to be there with her on that special occasion.

AP Tests

AP tests are so hard. This year I had one AP class,but took two AP tests. The first was for AP Spanish Language. I am pretty confident that I got a good score in that test. The next was AP US History. I tried my hardest in the history test and I studied a lot, but I am very nervous about my results in this test. Hopefully I pass both test, that would totally rock.

Lowriders



Lowriders are usually cars that most people wouldn't drive. In reality they are pretty cool. At Old Town today there was a display of them and I have to say that I will have a lowrider. these cars are a true work of art and I think that owning one would be pretty cool. My little brother and older cousin know a lot about cars and i thank God that I have them. The car that I want is a 1967 Chevy Impala.








XOXO

La Fiesta Old Town



Today me and my went to the Cinco de Mayo Fiesta that was being hosted at old town. It was really cool. I got to see a lot of things about the Battle of Puebla and other Mexican traditions. My little sister got a pink guitar and she was really happy about that. We decided to eat at a restaurant where my mom knows the owner. The food there was delicious and the churros there rocked. We listened to the Mariachi and saw the people that performed. I ended up buying a shirt and a dress that were really pretty.

Swimming


Today I went to the pool. I t was a lot of fun and it was the first time in a long time that I went. I began to teach my little sister how to swim. Then I had a splash fight between my brother and sister and me. I had so much fun.


XOXO

Abuelito Jose's Birthday


Today would have been my grandfathers 83rd birthday. He died on September 31, 2003 from cancer. He was my fathers dad and in a way also mine. He was my father for the first 4 years of my life. After I moved to San Diego I never got to see him. I would talk to him on the phone but that wasn't the same. I miss him a lot and wish that I had gotten to see him one last time before he passed away. It was hard to lose him and many times I cry because of the void he left in my heart after he left.



XOXO

AVID Dash for College

Today was the AVID Dash For College. It was fun and all the money that was brought in went to the Class of '09 AVID Class. I had fun and most of my friends were their. The only bad thing that came out of it was that I got a sun burn from walking around the track field( which was required).



XOXO

Luis Angel


Today was my cousin Luis Angel's birthday. He is now 7 years old. I haven't gotten the chance to meet him because he lives in New York and I live in San Diego. We talk on the phone sometimes and we both have pictures of each other. I really do hope that he has a happy birthday to day and that someday I will be able to spend his birthday with him.


XOXO

SAT II

Today I took two SAT Subject test and I hope that I passed them. The first was Spanish and I think that it was pretty easy. I mean being a Latina and having Spanish being my first language it seemed like a piece of cake. I can't say the same for history and I think that that test was really hard.

The Victor

If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think that you dare not, you don't,
If you'd like to win, but you think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't.

If you think you'll lose, you're lost,
For out in the world you'll find
Success begins with a fellow's will.
It's all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise;
You've got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win a prize.

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

-C.W. Longnecker

Earth Fair at Balboa Park


Today I went to the earth fair at Balboa Park. It was fun and I spend a day with my family. I learned a lot about the environment and i think that it is important to protect what we have before its gone. I was really tired though because I had just gotten back from the AVID trip and now I had to walk even more. But all in all I really had good time, I even got my face painted.






























XOXO

University of California- Los Angeles


The last School that we visited was the University of California- Los Angeles. It brought back a lot of memories because I had previously visited the campus when I was in 8th grade. Only that field trip was scary. Our teacher got the group lost many times, there were people chasing squirrels and the guys in my group were acting like total idiots. There were some people on the trip that did act like idiots, but this experience was so much better. I had a lot of fun, our tour guide was an El Cajon Valley high school(ECV) alumni of the 2006 class. The campus is huge and really makes for a great work out. I had a lot of fun when you exclude all the walking that we had to do. there dorms there are really pretty, though it feels like you just went through a hike just to get to them. I was also able to get a souvenir from UCLA and I ate Sbarro pizza. It really was amazing and I am considering going to that school.






















XOXO

University of California- Santa Barbara


The third college that I had the pleasure of visiting was UCSB. It was a really beautiful campus and it situated close to the ocean. It is was interesting that there a lot of bike lanes, so before you go anywhere make sure that there is nobody coming. The first thing that we did once we arrived on campus was eat, I thought it was really fuuny what happen to me and my friends. We went to look for Panda Express and it turns out that there was a down stairs where we looked and that was were it was located. Talk about common sense to look at what is down stairs, but for some reason it didn't occur to us to do so. I did have a great time there and eventually I ended up eating Wendy's. I did get a suveniur at the book store.





XOXO

California State University- Channel Island


CUSCI was an interesting school, it is very secluded and has a beautiful campus. Though I don't really think that I would go there, there was this weird vibe. It was interesting to know that there were some movies that were filmed there. On of them was The Undergraduate, in which the schools basketball court was used. There is well close to the school that was used in the film, The Ring. The thing that I thought was a little disturbing was that the new library was built on the spot that used to be the mortuary. I some what believe in the supernatural and I think that it would not suit well with me. It as a lot of fun and I did enjoy the tour that was given to us by one of the teacher's friends.





XOXO

California State University- Long Beach




The first University that we visited was CSU- LB. The campus was big and it had a lot of cool things to see. We got to see the school mascot and many of us took pictures with him, their mascot is a Prospector. My favorite two things on campus were the Dandelion Fountain and the Blue Pyramid. I later learned that inside the Blue Pyramid, is the school GYM and their Basketball court. Mr. Nami took us on a tour and we got to see one of the classrooms, we also got to write on the chalk board. Then I went and ate at Subway. Were the cashier was flirting with one of my friends, I though that was really funny. Me and my friends had dinner and then went to meet everyone so that we could leave and go to the first hotel.

Junior Avid College Trip


The Junior AVID College Trip was so much fun, I'm so happy that I got to go. I got to learn a lot about the universities that I visited and there were some neat things about them. though I think the best thing i learned was that even though there are a lot of things that I have to do my dreams haven't changed. I learned about what kind of school I want to go to. There were of course some crazy things that went on. There was a jacuzzi in the first hotel that I stayed in and I wasn't going to miss the opportunity, so I got in. Then there was all the pranks not only between the students, but on the way home to of the students pranked the teachers, it was kind of funny, though one wrong turn by one of the students and we could have all been in big trouble. There was also this time that my cousin dressed to of the guys on the trip like girls: attire and the makeup as well. Seeing that was a little frightening. One thing that I do have to say is that i will never forget this trip, it was awesome and I will the pictures took forever as a reminder of this great trip.

Chivas vs. America


The game is on, today is the classical game in Mexican soccer. It is Chivas versus America, which is the Mexican equivalent of Chargers vs Raiders. I love soccer and my dad raised my watching Mexican soccer games. Unlike in football I do chose a side to be on. Although me dad goes for America, I find that my team is Chivas. Sometimes my dad gets mad but i just can't go for America. I do hope that Chivas wins.

ACT


Yesterday I took the Act no writing test at SDSU. It was really difficult and I hope that I get a good score. Afterwards I went to Balboa Park. It was fun and I went to the big fountain and got wet so I had to walk back to Downtown San Diego where I ate at Subway. Then when I came back home i went to my cousin Marcos' Birthday party. I got to see my lil cousin, Angel for the first time and he is so adorable. Then at night one of my friends called and I could hear my other friend yelling in the background. It was funny he really needed to take a chill pill.

First Day Back

Today I went back to school, it was kind of a slow day because of the fact that during the break I would fall asleep late and sleep in. So I was really sleepy during my classes. It was great to see all of my friends again. I had missed them all so much. I was glad to be back and I had so much homework. Talk about overload the first day of school.

FAMILY VISIT

My mom's sister came to visit us today. My uncle was going to pick up my grandmother from the airport. I was kind of dreading there visit because it is so boring when they are here. The fact that my uncle is a control freak and that him and my aunt raised my cousins a certain way gets me mad. for one thing my cousins don't even speak Spanish and thats just sad, they have to fluent Spanish speaking parents and when they speak in Spanish it sounds very broken. Although they have visited Mexico, they don't know a lot about the culture or the cuisine. It is a pity to be a certian race and not know anything about that culture.



XOXO

LAST DAY OF VACATION


Today is the last day of vacation and I plan on enjoying it no matter what. My little sister asked me if I could curl her hair and I think that she looks gorgeous. My family and I are going to the mall, and were awaiting my grandmothers return from New York. The break is now coming to a close and I have had a lot of fun. tomorrow we go back to school and I can't wait to see all of my friends again.



XOXO

SHE'S BACK

After her three week vacation in New York, my grandmother is back. I really did miss her, though I didn't miss all of the arguments that some way or another we would get into. She is the only grandmother that I have left. When i saw my little sister crying because she missed her abuela, it reminded me of all the times that i had missed her and still do and I don't care if that sounds cheesy. I'm not afraid to say that i love my grandmother.

TODAY

I went to eat at the place were my dad works and ate lunch. I had one carne asada taco and three tacos al pastor. They really good and I had a lot of fun while I was there. I was happy to see my friend Adrian again, I had seen him since August of last year. My dad was working hard as always.


XOXO

SAT

Well me and many others from my AVID class took the SAT on March 1st and the scores are due any day now. I'm really sacred on what my score is and if I did well. Well heres hoping but thankfully I can always retake it.

Chuck E Cheese

Yesterday I went to Chuck E Cheese. Well after going to church my dad informs me that we are going to take my little sister to Chuck E Cheese for Easter. I thought that it was so nice of him to inform me after church and not at home when he saw that i was wearing a skirt and boots. It was fun, I got to get my dad back when I took a picture of him playing a soccer game. My brother and I were just mess around with each other and having fun. I did see a cute looking guy while I was there though, so I guess that the day wasn't so bad after all.

















XOXO

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well I accomplished my goal of lent. I went 40 days without drinking soda. To some people that I know it may seem like nothing, but if you take some thing that you do it is really hard. I'm not just talking about food, there are people that give up TV, or one of their hobbies. A person that I know decided to give up gossip for the forty days. My brother didn't agree with my decision, he thought that I was only going to torture myself with this decision. I found it funny a couple of times when my mom or other family members would forget and offer my a soda. I would just laugh and remind them of my promise. I think that when you are involved with your faith you not only learn about your faith, but about yourself to. I have found that now that I have become more close with life and with my self . I have realized that it is time for me eyes to be open and I have been seeing things in a new light. Well next year I don't know what I'll give up for lent. I remember though that last year both me and my Uncle Agustin gave up soda and this year it was me and my cousin Clarissa.

It is....


Today is Easter and I plan on having a lot of fun today. It is one of my favorite holidays, after Christmas of course. It is a time for celebration because according to the bible it is the day that Christ rose from his grave after being dead for three days. One of my teacher told my that in Russia Christmas was Easter in the time of the Czar's. Those FabergƩ eggs in the royal family are full of intricate designs and they were only given during easter. There is after all a misconception on what the easter bunny has to do with the resurrection of Christ. Well it all starts with the spring, which is the rebirth of the earth and everything that inhabits it. Spring also bring the end of hibernation for most some animals. Bunnies are animals that are mostly associated with spring, so they to represent rebirth. Well there are a lot of things to do today, I have to go to church.

Dad and Uncle

Yesterday was my Uncle JosƩ Birthday, he is one of the youngest sons my grandmother had and currently she is with him in New York. He has always been there for me when I needed help. For the first four years of my life he was my father. I used to call him dad until I was old enough to understand that he was my uncle. He still takes care of me. It really sucks that i don't get to see him anymore, but I talk to him on the phone all the time. I wish that I will be able to see him soon. hopefully my grandma takes some pictures of him, my aunt and my cousin during her stay with them.

Santo



Today is my brothers and my dads Santo. In some parts of Mexico people celebrate things called Santo's. This day is a celebration of a given saint, if there is a saint with your name than you celebrate your santo. Its kind of like a birthday you get. We went to go eat at Olive Garden, it was a lot of fun. I loved the Tiramisu dessert. My mom and my dad enjoyed themselves. It is right that great minds think alike because they both ordered the same things.

Today


Well its that day again. You all know what I'm talking about, its St. Patrick's day again. You know the day that you wake up to go to school or work only to pinch those that aren't wearing green. There are though a lot of misconception about St. Patty's day, so lets look into the day a little closer shall we. It is true that St. Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland, but it is not just and Irish holiday. It is also a Catholic holiday, for you see St. Patrick's Day is not the only Saints Day celebrated. In Mexico there are plenty of saints days that are celebrated. Well enjoy today and pinch as many people as you can.

Today is the first official day of Spring break and it is already raining. Oh well what are you going to do about it. My and my little sister are going to watch movies all day long. Good thing I got to the post office before it started raining. I had to mail in a scholarship which I hope to get. Well I hope that it doesn't rain tomorrow because were taking my dad out to a family day and we want to enjoy ourselves. When it rains it pours and I think a day in is what I need.

Priscilla


My little cousin turned five on Wednesday. I love all of my little cousins and even though I haven't met her in person she is special to me. She is my sisters age, but since she lives in New York, we don't get to see her. My grandma left to go visit her and even though I miss my grandma I am happy that she got to spend my cousins birthday with her. I hope that they are enjoying themselves right now. To the right is her as a baby and I hope that my grandma brings back pictures of what my little cousin looks like now. I think that it is so cute when she tries to talk because she is really quiet and you can barely here her. I think that she is really shy. Though she loves vanilla cake and it suits her because they are both sweet. Like my little sister her favorite color is pink.

THE ZOO


Last Friday I went to the the Centro Cultural in Balboa Park and after that I went to the zoo. I had a lot of fun and it was interesting. There was a place that I discovered on this trip to the zoo. I had never seen the insect house that they had at the zoo. My friend Vero that is fascinated with snakes made us see all the snakes at the zoo. Her favorite is the Anaconda. I love to see the monkeys and the elephants, which I saw. I also got to see meerkats, lemurs, wild cats, mongoose and lots of ducks. I also saw a peacock, it was beautiful and it sacred me to. I now know that it is never a good idea to try to touch a peacock. Never get to close to a wild animal. I had fun and the little girl inside me was satisfied for a while. Now I have to wait for easter to be a little girl again.


XOXO

My Homegurl


Well today has been full of surprises and of somethings that I expected to happen. Well my time day was a blast and one my friends was surprised when I guessed something about her that she hadn't told me. Well Eva was surprised but knowing her for as long as have, it is easy to figure out what she wants to tell me sometimes. She is not a friend, but my sister. I do try to look after her from time to time and she has been in my life for the longest of times. We met when we were in kindergarten and we have been through many things together. There have been good times and bad times, but have stuck together and are still great friend. We hold each other secrets and i know that we would never betray each other. She is a lovely person and friends like her aren't found everyday, which is why am glad to have such a great sis.
























XOXO

Betrayal

There comes a time in life in which we realize what people truly are. When the mask that has been placed upon us is finally lifted and we see the world clearly. I guess that for me that time has come and it is finally time for me to see things as they are and realize all that is going on around me. Betrayal is what finally opened my eyes and I'm glad that this occurred because I finally see all of the errors that I committed in the past. I can begin to live my life thinking about myself and try to make sure that I'm able to have all the fun that I want and I have been able to enjoy my life. I feel like the leach i had has finally been removed and that no more will I have to worry about someone that isn't worth my time. Because the number one thing that i hate is fake people, I make sure that the people i talk to now aren't fake. Life is full of surprises and there will be a time when what you did to someone will be done to you by someone else. With each new experience that I encounter I'm able to become stronger. Like they say that which doesn't kill me only makes me stronger. No longer will I be lied to or fooled by those who pretended to be my friends, it is time for me to show the world and those that betrayed me who I really am. Hope there ready to meet the real me.

Funny Life



So last week my my dad's older sister came to visit us and I had a lot fun talking to her, my uncle and my cousin. My aunt is really nice and she looks exactly like my grandmother. She is a nice kind women and I love her a lot. Right now she is living with her daughter(my cousin) in Las Vegas. There she gets to visit her granddaughters(my nieces). I hope that I will be able to see her soon. My cousin is a lot of fun and my brother and him really bonded. I think that it would be good for my little brother to have a male influence other than my dad. My brother view my cousin Pedro as an older brother, plus they can talk about cars for hours and never get bored.

Leap Year

Today is the 29 of February. Once every four years this day appears on our calenders and I always wonder what happens to those people that are born on 2/29. They age just like all of us do, but do they count there age by day or by the years that they have been alive. Would it be weird to only be considered three years old when you have been alive for twelve. How do people deal with that? Do they pick the day before or after to celebrate thier birthday on not leap years.

Mi Mama



My mom is my number 1. She has been there for me in my failures and successes. My joys and my tragedies. Her birthday was yesterday and I tried to make it special. Although I couldn't buy her anything, I dedicated and sang a song to her because she deserves to know how much I love her . She is the women that I admire the most because of all the challenges that she has faced in life. At the age of nine her father did and left behind a wife and six children. My mom lost her childhood. At nine she took care of four children while my grandma worked. She went through a lot and for a while she was single mother. She is always here for me and I will always be here for her.

Poem Of My Mother

Impossible not to love you
your there when I feel blue
All the memories you gave me
when I am with you I am full of glee

You teach me to be polite
your always a delight
The food you make is always a treat
which is why I always eat

When I grow up I want to be just like you
and I know in my heart that my children will love me too
If I teach them the way you taught me
I will be a wonderful mom you will see

I will always love you
no matter what my life puts me threw
You will be #1 in my heart
because from all the rest you stand apart

Shinning like the most beautiful star
because that is just who you are
Wonderful, smart and full of glee
that is why you are important to me

Dame Chocolate


Dame Chocolate was one of the best telenovelas I have seen, but it brought to me a story I will never forget. It proves that when something is supposed to happen no one person can change fate or destiny. There also is the story of how one person can change so much over a few days. That an event can change a person more than someone can imagine. Life has a mysterious way of making things happen maybe for good or bad, but one thing is for sure everything that happens in life has a reason behind it. There are purposes for the bad and even tough they seem horrific, they teach us some of the most valuable lessons of life. There is a quote that I love from this telenovela:

"La vida es una manifestacion de los suenos y los suenos se escojen."
" Life is a manifestation of ones dreams and one chooses what to dream."

Barbie

Okay I know that the title is a bit childish, but everyone is still a child deep inside so don't laugh. I guess my little sister allows my to be a child to. She is 4 years old and has almost the entire Barbie movie collection. Which we are watching today, one after another. It's not as bad as it sounds because I enjoy spending time with my little sister. Plus the movies themselves are not so bad once you watch them. Each of these movies has a beautiful plot and lesson that follows the story.

Barbie as Rapunzel:
Most people know the story of Rapunzel, but in this movie there is a twist. Rapunzel lives a witch named Gothel and she is kept trapped in a manor that is blocked to outsiders by a magic wall.
