There is nothing


like the first kiss... and the next one... the next one and... hopefully the many more to come.

For a long time I did not believe it but I guess it's true... there are people out there that will fit you... that it will be easy to be with... smoothly they will get into your life. Many have told me to be patient and do not settle... I guess they were right.

Clave 5


Nunca he confesado que me daba mucha envidia cuando oia como mi ex tenia un grupo en su uni y se iba con ellos a un bar a echar drinks y a ponerse hasta las chanclas. En clase se decian "clave 5" y ya sabian que se veian en cierto bar para pasar un buen rato.

Pues hoy yo tuve mi propio "clave 5" group!!! al terminar la clase me acerque a una chava y chavo y les dije que estaria de pelos empezar a organizar ir a echar drinks after class. Pues next thing I know... estoy echando margaritas en una cantina y moriendome de la risa hasta que mi estomago dolio!!

Como me gustaria compartir esto con mi ex... decirle: que crees ya tengo mi clave 5!!Estaria increible compartirlo con el.

Where the drama go?!


Tonight I thought I would have a good dose of drama, and honestly I was up for it. Not sure why but drama spices things a little and really inside of me I was looking forward to it.

The scene...my exboyfriends birthday party... the drama... he has a new girlfriend. I thought to myself..."why not going? So many people will be there and why should I stop my life for anyone". Besides, I thought I would look amazing and show him how I could care less about his girlfriend...

Well... honestly I didn't have to pretend. It was very obvious and genuine that I'm not attracted to him anymore. I saw them kissing and I didn't wish I was her, I'm truly happy for them. I wouldn't hang out with them in a regular basis but I didn't get the drama I was expecting.

Also, I saw a guy once I wanted to go out with and I didn't make any effort so he would like me this time. I was just myself, truly and only myself and that is refreshing. Not as exciting as the drama but this feels more like me... more what I want to be. Only for tonight I didn't care who liked me, I was busier being myself...I left the drama queen at home.

The Nice Girl


Al parecer el estereotipo de una mujer es ser linda, comprensiva, tierna, etc. etc. mas si en algun momento decimos lo que sentimos o opinamos y no entra dentro de este estereotipo pues nos catalogan como bitches.

Bueno, no puedo hablar en primera persona por que Charline sigue muy preocupada por ser la nice girl... y en un esfuerzo por probar algo no tan de nice girl intentare un deporte que no tiene nada de nice... si senoras y senores me he puesto los guantes de box y no muy girliemente le he dado unos buenos golpes al punching bag.

Me duele cada uno de los musculos de mi cuerpo... pero definitivamente dolera mas seguir jugando a ser una nina nice que no dice lo que siente, piensa o quiere.

La Relatividad del Tiempo


He escuchado este término en muchas ocasiones. Se dice que un minuto debajo del agua se siente como una hora… bueno yo tengo otra versión.

Después de incontables horas de conversaciones telefónicas por fin conocí al hombre que ha despertado mi interés en los últimos dos meses. Sentí magia y química en cada una de aquellas horas de llamadas… y esperaba con ansia (y muchos nervios) el momento de conocerlo. Me sentí viva…emocionada, ilusionada, me daban ataques de risa sin razón… en fin viví horas en que mi corazoncito se sintió latir fuerte.

Pero pues así como la relatividad también existe la realidad y al parecer no es lo mismo horas detrás de un teléfono que horas de frente a frente… por qué? Porque la realidad existe, porque si tienes gripa no tienes ganas de estar horas con una persona que apenas conoces, porque si pasas mucho tiempo sola empieza a costar más trabajo estar horas expuesta a estarse comunicando y tratando de gustarle a la otra persona.

Porque si, por más que quisiera decir que estoy orgullosa de que lo que soy y de lo que tengo… muy adentro de mi pienso que si le echo muchas ganas, si invierto muchas horas encontrare el amor. Ese amor del que la gente habla, en donde dos personas se sienten simplemente cómodas la una con la otra, ese amor que hace que brinque tu corazoncito cuando te ve a los ojos, ese amor que hace que hagas lo que sea, por horas y sin cansarte tan solo por verle sonreír.

A veces dudo, si esto existe y pasara de la noche a la mañana, de un flechazo, como tantas leyendas urbanas que he escuchado… o esto es lo que me han dicho que existe y la gente que me rodea espera que encuentre. Cuantas horas más tendrán que pasar para responder esta incógnita.

CONNECTION


We can define connection as the act of connecting... in other words to join together. But nowadays we find that concept in many other scenarios. From web connections to flight connections.

Yet, there is another context that really jumps to my attention. That is when two people connect. When after several conversations you can start to know what the person feels about certain things. When moments in your everyday life start to remind you of that person.

There is another level of connection that is mystical. The mind connection between two people. Even though it cannot be proven, we all have had these experiences. How many times have you been thinking of calling someone when suddenly, they call you! You are walking down the street, talking to someone and suddenly you bump into each other!* When you text someone and they receive your tet the minute they were about to hit send to a text they were sending you.

What does this mean? Well, honestly I don't think it means that you are closer to that person, but it only proves us that there are many more ways to relate to others than what we consider to be real. I truly believe that thinking of someone brings you closer to that person. It doesn't matter if they are in Israel, in Mexico, in CBS or in the room next to you... by thinking of them you are sending energy... and somehow that connect us in the "here and now". Well that is only my own hypothesis, somehow crazy but very connected to who I am and what I believe in.
