So Im finally 23!..its not soo bad. I freaked out soon as it turned midnite, but my good friend was there and she baught me cake and balloons and made me laugh. That day was filled with suprises. We all dressed up...and I went to get my hair done. It cost alot but my sis paid for it as a birthday gift and I was soo grateful. after my hair I went to school b/c I had an exam. soon as I got on the third floor everyone was singing me birthday songs. even random people that I've never met were offering to do things for me . WOW! I was sooooooooooooooooooo happy.
Later on about 9 of us went to dinner at this really nice restaurant. I felt like a queen for that one day.The day ended with hugs and kisses and many many many gifts.

Lhe very next day which was a friday was filled with more suprises... my friends were all abandoning me for some weird reason. I was puzzled and tired so after classes I went home to sleep it off. later in the after noon one of my friends called me and told me to come with her to straighten her hair because she was goin somewhere important. I did her hair and mine for the heck of it. I was later dragged to drop her off and  when I got out the car to say hello to the family, people were jumping out from every direction yelling "SUPRISE!!!"...... it was a surprise birthday party. I've never had one. I was the one who was always planing it for someone else. I was in a shock.even the neighbors were singin happy birthday in spanish for me as I ran out the house chased my many people who were trying to give me booby hugs.
They had everything picked out for me. my outfit was waiting for me, my make up artist was there waiting for me as well..wow...I was speechless. I went downstairs and danced till I dropped then ate till I couldnt move.
I had a heart shaped cake with cookes on it. I got smeared with frosting and even got into inside my shirt some how....It was some fun. I came home really late that nite exhausted and tired. I jumped right into bed happier than I have ever been in my life.

I am thankful to have people who care and went out of their way to make me feel like a queen. They all knew I was dreading turning 23 and I am infact really really happy to have turned 23. thanks to all of them

It is august 15 today and I am sooooooooooooooooooo freaked out!....Im going to turn 23 in a couple of weeks!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!... I remember when I was younger I couldnt wait for my birthday to come but as I grew older I dread the day as it comes closer. when I turned 22 I had a total break down. what is there to look forward to after this. I have already turned 18 then 21....whats next?...40?!?!? They tell me age is just a number, but that number becomes a prob when it keeps increasing. 

 

My grandparents, uncles and aunts, ALL expect me to get married soon. In the society they grew up in, women got married at a young age...my grandma got married when she was 14!! so imagine what she thinks of me turning 23 and not married yet. my mother had 4 children by the time she was 23 and only 2 of us survived.

This trully is a dilema!

Hey people, once again.... 

 

So its been awhile since I have been on here. I have been soo busy its unimaginable. I worked 7 days a week, I had no time to rest....I was overwhelmed and exhausted.  but now, I'm not working at all...life feels soo empty. I thought I was gonna have a blast if I stopped working and took a break, I guess I thought wrong. It is now 12:14 in the morning and I'm sleepless. I sit here and contemplate about my life. I ask myself many questions that I have no answers to and it frustrates me.  I thought about this soo much that I came to the this conclusion

1-focus on what I have at this moment and be thankful for it. I'm thankful that I have faith in God to get me through the day. here is a poem by Paul Mc Cann that describes how thankful I am.

 

In this world that we are passing through ,
We sometimes forget to say thank you .
So before this moment slips away ,
There is just one thing I would like to say .
Thanks a million .
I think that its great .
For all you've done I appreciate ! 

 

 

 

once again..its almost midnite and I sit here sleeplessly staring at the comp screen. what shall I do?...I am so bored out of my mind. I'm overwhelmed with work during the day and at night I'm not sleepy..what the hell?..pisses me off...what can I do though..its life.

So I'm sure most of you have been following the NCAA. My boys made it to the final 4!! yay!! I am so proud of them! words will not express my joy and happiness. We beat UCONN baby!

 

so today is monday. and our boys come home finally. they lost to the gators on saturday...and boy was it emotional!! for once Mason was recognized!..congrats to the patriots anyways...they did an awesome job! they will forever be talked about. Mason will be seen thru their eyes and ears. In reality we walked away the winners.

 

I watched the game carefully and at the end, when Lamar  Butler and Jai Lewis cried...my heart broke in 2. it is soo emotional seein guys cry...it makes me wanna cry too. so cry together we did, and then we celebrated at IHOP...we got some free dinner b/c the entire northern Va is celebrating with us.

this is just a sample of how sad and heartbroken our boys were....but hey...Cinderella Balla Style!!...the shoe fits.

 

 

 

I cant wait for the Gators to loose to UCLA...I want to see those players loose and walk out the court crying just like our boys did. I really would like for their dreams to be dashed and go home the loosers..to be truthful...I want them to feel the same heartbreak our boys felt. so everyone.
