Julia se ha levantado temprano con la luz que entraba por su ventana. Sale al patio, se lava la cara y se peina. Saluda a sus gallinas y recoge un huevo que se ha salido del nido. Mientras, Pedro está encendiendo la chimenea para calentar un poco la casa.
Me encanta esta reflexión.
I really don’t care if you read about this post. I’ve worked so hard for this relationship that I’ll not let you feel like you have the slightest control over it. I don’t chase men like a puppy that’s hungry. I’m no better than anyone. I am a woman that continues to pursue her dreams.
The future? Don’t care about it.
What I care is about respect.
I can be a bitch but that’s just a lousy adjective for the marvelous attitude that I let loose when I don’t like something.
He’s not my property but we both know our boundaries. Some people have to be stopped before they start.
If you think I’m wrong, please don’t contact me. I’ve have been far too kind and patient with you in the past.


Lo mucho que me ha gustado esa banderita verde. En estos momentos no pienso en los partidos, mi padre va a tener que ir a Miami para trabajar. Yo estoy en un proceso de introspección. Si alguien necesita roomate en abril 2013 me deja saber.
Have you ever gone to an event where you don’t know anyone? This is one of my hobbies. I don’t think the curiosity killed the cat, I think the people who say this are the ones that commit the murder. Try new things!
Yesterday I participated in a march for the awareness of the crime in our streets and the fear we experience as a result of this. We don’t walk our own cities because we live with the mentality of ”it’s too dangerous”. So yeah, we walked and walked. People looked at us funny but we managed to get some ”cats” that asked us about what we were doing. Funny experience and it was nice to meet some cool characters.
In our final destination, the Capoeira group Senzala was waiting for us. Such a cool night.



Moi, trying to fix the flashlight. XD



I need all the good vibes I can get. I’m scared but I don’t let it show. I hope you guys are having nice night. I don’t want him to be another statistic.
Today at work, this gentleman entered the frozen yogurt store and started to say: Hallelujah!, God is good!, etc., he then goes towards me and tells me that everything is going to get better. This I say without BS, I’m not a religious person at all but I respect everyone’s religious views.
I didn’t expect that at all but it was nice. He even wrote few passages for me to look in the bible and to pray before I went to sleep.
Since I got nothing to lose and I did appreciate the gesture (one that I know he shares with other people), maybe I will do the assignment.

Dear Joiedevivire (me),
I met you since you were just a moment of love and passion. You are so mature and all grown-up. 21 years old! That’s amazing. You’ve danced your way through life. Expressing that creative soul you have with moves and poetry, those words that you kept inside. Pretty big heart of yours, never resting always fragile. I know you and me. It’s weird and amazing at the same time. This is the time I recognize your true beauty and dedication for a world with better sight. Keep doing what you think is right. Babe you are my truest love. Respect you and others. Love others and yourself. I’m proud, honey.
Al trabajar en San Juan me he encontrado con tanta diversidad de personas. Es increíble. Cosas cool de este domingo:
Me gusta mi trabajo, el ambiente y obviamente que ya tengo algún ingreso para moi. Estoy contenta y muy agradecida.
Espero que estén bien, queridos followers.
Fotos que no recogen todas las experiencias pero que si cuentan un historia fragmentada de esta semana. Whatever…





Some school girls were so infatuated with Jose, a coworker from the fro-yo place that I work in, that they wrote on a napkin: Hey I just met you and this is crazy….
Yeah. GO JOSE! Sorry girls he has a girlfriend.
At least you managed to get a picture from him.
