Wrapping up

I look around and I realize I just couldn't have asked for a year better year. I met these amazing people, I went to these amazing places and I survived. If you look through the pictures I've uploaded during the last 12 months, you'll notice how honest my smile looks. I literally saw how one of my bigger dreams came true. There's people that deserve an honorary mention; Monica, who always knew what to say, Katie, who was always there, Omar, who made see things in a different perspective, and for the second year in a row, Frida, who didn't let me know. 
I wonder if I would've done somethivg different and, honestly, I couldn't have. Even in those moments when all I wanted was a special person to cuddle with, I know it wouldn't have Meen fair for either of those people. besides, damn, I've sinned like I never had; on a piano, drunk, in a fancy hotel at the Times Square, interrupted by my roommate, in the beach, in an attic, and... well, I just loved this amazing year. I know more about myself, I'm ready to be myself.
bad things? Mmmm, growing up always has its ups and down, so I gotta suck it up. People did let me down and perhaps I did as well, not on purpose though. I have mixed feelings on now being 22 years old... duh!  However, the older I get, the cooler I am as well LOL
One of the more lesson I learnt this year is that getting what you want is not always what you need. I can't help it  but wonder if 2012 will be as exciting as 2011 and if more dreams will come true or not.

A prior birthday epiphany

I'm actually less than an hour I'm turning 23 and it's been quite a journey. in less than a year I went from heaven to hell back and forth so many times I lost count. I went from being surrounded b pole I loved in a way I never expected to being a stranger in my own hometown. To losing myself and learning about the kid I used I see in the mirror, to being happy to let the sadness tear me up from the inside.  Yes, I grew up, I was surprised, I allowed myself to be dissapointed by people for one last time, I let the wall keeping me away from falling for a guy down. They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, I say fight back. There are lessons I must never forget, and I mean it when I say never. The first comes to friends. Friends are magical beings that appear in your life and are loyal to you no matter what. They'd take the bullet for you. They'd swallow their sadness to cheer you up. Friends are beyond time and space, beyond destiny and destinations...

First time

There are many first times. We crave them. Our first time outside the coutry, first time on our own, first time doing something crazy, or simply "the" first time. However, there are first times we don't know they are first times 'till it's too late. For example, our first time truly in love. When we're teenagers we have crushes, we think they are our first loves till we realize they're not. As we grow older we have our first kiss and, well, hopefully later, our first time. What we seem to forget is that we rarely share all those first times with the same person, that only happens in movies. Our first love comes later, when we know ourselves, when we less expect it. Our first love comes when you less expect it, that moment when you're off guard, when you might not want to be in love, when love is too silly to believe in.  As we grow older we meet new and more interesting people and there's someone, someone with whom you share a certain connecti...

To The Object Of My Affection

I, from another land, met you in the summer, and you from another time, made your way as my lover,  I was reckless and didn't see the moon,  shining brighter, gravitating around you, and though I, I never was one for strings attached. l let you in, to be part of my life. Later the fall came, turning leaves in red, and so promises were made, nice things were said. It showed me that usual as you there are few, Cause you know no season, they avoid you, And though I, I never was one for sharing, Let me say, when you sleep, I lay staring. Finally an early winter came and it's far gone, I had no idea what was it like not spend it alone, I get it now, we're just outlaws of love, running away from anyone with a soul. And though I never was one for happiness, I summon thee and farewell loneliness.
