Did you know

*I have never been high in my life.. and I don't plan to.

*My favorite movie is STILL Titanic. I probably have seen it 40 times. And I still get goosebumps every time I watch it.

*I have never fake-tanned

*I know EVERY lyric to Nelly's "EI."

*Adriana Maralyn.. yes after Maralyn Monroe.

*My mom was born in a stable in Mexico. Without a doctor. 

*I am an excellent speller

*I don't really know if the whole "marriage & kids" thing is for me.. just doesn't sound appealing... 

*I've never seen a Star Wars movie

*I refuse to pay more than $20 for a shirt. I mean really, what a waste of money. But at the same time my closet in Fort Collins is literally overflowing.. and my closet in Longmont is full too.

*I NEVER cry, I think in my life I have cried more from being happy than being sad/mad. I don't think I've ever gone to bed angry, & it is so hard for people to bring me down.

*I LOVE airports... just the potential of ADVENTURE..

*I was the youngest full-timer (and one of only 3 women) full time at best buy. Also I was the only female in home theater. BAMF?? 

*I have never gotten a speeding ticket, been in an accident, or received a fine for a traffic violation. But I have been pulled over 8 times. ;)

*I will act redneck and sing country at the rose, accentuate my half-Mexican-ness when a hip hop song comes on,  be passing out on Saturday night, & passing the plate at church on Sunday morning. :)

*I. AM. BLESSED.

Man of the day~~~~~

YUM....MY

My "keys to Happiness" in my short 21 years.

*Talk to at least one immediate family member every single day.
*Go to church every Sunday, and try to go in the morning. The feeling leaving church, with the sun shining, is the best feeling.
*When you have money problems just remember, "you can't take it with you when you go."
*Only drink on the weekend, and when those glorious days come, drink Pinot with every meal ;)
*If there is music, and you are with your dear friends, dance. Always.
*Dogs will become your best friends.
*Remember there is always something to be grateful for.
* 8 hours of sleep EVERY night.
*"God is great, beer is good, and people are crazy"
*If you're going out to dinner, try to have a healthy lunch & breakfast.
*Starbucks is COMPLETELY overpriced.
*Shopping is cheaper than therapy, ha!
*Blare country music, with the windows down, and yell every lyrics.
*You are NOT missing that much if you stay in on a Friday.
*Remember, that the future has potential to be better. YOUR future, could look like this:

Obsessed...

birds fly over the rainbow, why then, oh why, can't I?

I have a vision I will be 25, exhausted from my day at my office, & I will come home sporting a black pencil skirt with a light blue, tucked-in, button down shirt from J. Crew. My hair is long brown, curled in. I pour myself a glass of red wine, and before I go to change my outfit to meet my fabulous Sex & the City-esque friends, I will sit down, close my eyes, sip my wine, and listen to this song...





Also, today was the Super Bowl. Winning commercial of the day?

I mean come on, they have Glee, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, & a South Park clip that has a snowman in the background wearing an Elway jersey.
Love .. <3

If I die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take...

The past year, don't know why, I have had a major push in my life for religion. Oddly enough, I am the one pushing myself.
Why do some people have a huge issue with religion? I mean, what's so bad about it?? Okay, so their are corruptions and abuses of power, but the good outweighs the bad ten-fold. Basically, most religions want people to be selfless, forgiving, happy, and grateful. What's so wrong with that?
It is unifying, calming, and a release if you ask me... and it really took me 21 years to realize this. How is it I went to Catholic school K-12... but only actually went to church on my own and LISTENED for myself the past couple months? It's nice to know God is on your side, especially when you feel so helpless... you can tell yourself it's in God's hands. It's nice knowing their is a power stronger than you... it's not all on your back.
I don't know, just my thoughts. Not too preachy I hope... because religion really shouldn't be like that.


I believe there's a pride thats stunning,


And I believe in the kingdom coming

I believe if you seek the truth,

You don't need to look far cuz it's gonna find you

In 10 years, I hope this is me.
