4 years ago.

Four years ago I wrote my first blog post. (CRAZY)

After California voted YES on Prop 8. After Barack Obama become our 43rd president.

Here we are again. After all is said and done. Obama is still our president and I couldn't be happier with that! I know where he stands with a lot of the issues that matter most to me!

As for equality and marriage rights.. Other states last night voted and approved those rights! Progress!! It's awesome to see us moving FORWARD.

I hope we can all come together. Because this is our America. We make it what it is... together.

yay!

I have GOOD news..No I didn't switch to Geico but my computer is now up and running!!! YAY!!!

Bad news is that I can't get my pictures and music from my external hard drive onto my new one.

One step at a time I suppose..

Expect lots of updates complete with new pictures! =) I feel so out of the loop!

I missed updating! I need to add all my pictures to facebook first. =) haha

Happy March!

bahaha!

I was out last night walking around this thing called Victorian Christmas (they close of the streets. tons of vendors. music. food. etc.) and I went into my favorite store called the Grey Goose (it kind of reminds me of a store in NYC called Pylones). Its a funky little shop with tons of different things like jewelry, books, trinkets, etc. While looking through all that the store has to offer I saw these things. . .

A magnet....

a journal.

I laughed out loud. I couldn't help it.

I'm shameless

<<***I broke out in Garth Brooks when I wrote the title of this post!***>>

The awesome, talented, foodie Molly, featured me on her blog today! I wrote a Shameless November list for her series. Go check it out.. NOW!

A little tad bit about Molly> I often daydream about living in NYC and hanging out with her. She seems like a really fun chica! We share a love of food, horchata, and being silly.

Happy Hump Day! Celebrate November by being Shameless!

question marks

You know how many times I have opened up bloggger and clicked on 'new post' and then starred at the blank white screen... thinking hmm.. i know there was something that I wanted to say, pictures i wanted to share...but I draw a blank. This blank space can be intimidating sometimes.

Every blogger is different on their level of openness. Some people just post happy posts. Things that they did, pictures, and keep it on a pretty basic level of who they are (Which is definitely not a bad thing!). While other bloggers put it all out there...they dive down deep to who they are as a person to how they feel, what scares them and what makes them happy. They are raw and open.

I guess I'm trying to figure out who I want to be as a member of this community.

birthday blog

Happy Birthday to my blog.

It's lame and hasn't really gone anywhere but maybe that will change when i decide not to be such a lame blogger.

I have things to say but i guess it's just a matter of putting them out there for the world to read.
To be honest I have never liked the idea of people reading my thoughts. For a matter of fact I sometimes in school wouldn't turn in a homework assignment when I knew it was going to be a student grading it. I didn't even want my parents to read my essays. I'm such a weirdo.

I'm starting to change so hopefully I can put more thought into this...

10 things.

10 Things that make me HAPPY!

5. Classic Rock n' Roll

6. The Women in my family (sisters, cousins, mom, grandmas, aunts, etc)

7. The Food Network

8. Loving text messages.. especially from my babe.

10. New Zealand and anything Kiwi!

So I decided to do this because of this awesome blog. I have been addicted to it for some time now and even found most of the blogs I follow through that one. I love the blogging world. There is so much inspiration out there. It makes me happy. So number 11 on my list would be the blogging world!
