Oh, yeah, I have a blog here...

I really would like to increase the quantity of posts in my blog. I miss the days when I was younger and I would write in my journal almost daily. I'd like to write daily. Of course, I'll have to choose quantity over quality, but that's okay. I'd like this to be like my journals of old. Hopefully with less angst. Ha.

Anyway, a little recap on what's been going on. I'm still pushing through these last few months of school, mom's still going through chemo (she still has her hair), dad's working hard, and Paulina is off on some Mexican beach right now, the lucky wench. Her friend Juliette invited her to go to Los Barriles in Baja California Sur for two weeks. *Envy*

And on Friday I'm going to get my wisdom teeth taken out. ALL FOUR OF THEM. I'm going to be puffy and in pain. I won't be able to eat anything solid. The only bright side I see to this is the Vicodin the doc prescribed. Hee, I'm going to milk that for all it's worth. Just kidding, kind of...

You know, I've been going through a kind of goth/metal/geeky/anime phase. Hard to describe and it's not really a phase, it's just, I don't know, something. I've been wearing black more often, you will not see me without my black lace-up army boots (army? combat? know what I mean?), red lips, dark eyes. And not just the clothing, I've gotten into anime and stuff. I watched all 24 episodes of Clannad in two sleepless nights. I've always been into vampires, so that's not new, but I have a whole list of vampire movies to watch and books to read. Also, music! Evanescence is nothing new, but Tool, Apocalyptica, Nightwish, Delerium, all new. I liiiike! :)

Also, what would a blog post be without my whining about school? WHY WONT IT END ALREADY??

Viva Mexico!

Today is Mexico's Independence Day! I thought it was a good time to post some pictures of my trip to Mexico this summer.

                                            Guadalajara, Jalisco

Pet Food.

Those are my fake glasses. They have awful glare.

Me and my sister.

My second day in Guadalajara, it rained so hard, the streets were flooded. I mean flooded. It looked like we were driving through a lake. It was very nerve-racking.

             Guanajuato, Guanajuato

A lovely dancing couple.

             San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato

 

                    Dolores Hidalgo, Guanajuato

My favorite shoes.

     Sayulita, Nayarit

Lots of pictures of windows and doors, because they are cool. Most from Guanajuato.

         I have such great memories of Mexico. It has a special place in my heart, and it always will. I was going to stay there for my last year of high school, but I freaked out while taking a test, and I lost my nerve. Maybe I will go to university there, for a year. After I perfect my Spanish reading and writing skills, anyway.
