mexican jokes & lovers leap canyon..

I decided to take a much needed break on cinco de mayo. I went to Starved Rock in Uttica after my AP Spanish Exam and a brunch of panera bagels (soo yummy). The Delisi Sisters were the best people to go with, they are all about making things interesting.

Chinatown

Chinatown was definitely an experience. The shopping may have been a bit redundant, it's to be expected in a tourist attraction like this one, but the people-seeing was worth it. Being able to submerse myself was awesome. Even if only for a few blocks I'd loved seeing these Asian model thin girls who had the skinniest skinnys or guys who did more with their hair- and worked it- then i can even think of. I loved the people, and honestly the music. The guys drove buy blasting techno-y music and looking one part fast and furious Tokyo drift and two parts stylish sexy. I think that completely makes up for what Chinatown lacks in real shopportunities.

p.s. I know that Tokyo is in Japan but Asian coolness can not be limited to China! I mean it IS a fashion capital

Happy Easter Kiddies

I'm skipping the mass, and well my homework... ok and my volunteer hours today to celebrate Easter. I may not be super religious, but a holiday is a holiday. I'll be spending it visiting Chinatown. For thee very first time, and I'm excited to document the whole thing. Ill be gone early tomorrow, hence the midnight post. I WILL be sure to update afterward tho.
Wish me luck

Summer '09

Every ACT, SAT, and AP test I register for reminds how badly I am trying to get out of high school. Sadly, I have another year of suburbia. That's why I can't wait for this summer. It feels like this is my last summer of being young, next year I will be 18 and moving to college. Trust me I'm not complaining. Anyway I'm making the most of this summer and it will be here soon. I can't wait, Im making this summer the best one yet. Never underestimate a girl who knows how to have a good time...

Busy planning,

besos

Conformists need not apply

Lately, I've been doing alot of thinking about how I fit into one major, or one university, or career and it has all seemed so impossible. Here's the problem: I don't. I simply can't define myself into one thing. By no means do I mean to sound conceited because trust me through this entire process I have felt insecure and not at the same level as the rest of my class. I am not like the rest of my class though. I have to stop comparing my achievements with theirs. I just need to find the right school, the right major, and get accepted. No pressure right? ;)
Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Hope for Hope

There is all this pressure to get into the right college and study all the right things because we are the future of our country, but to me there is a question of if there will still be a future here. I've realized that the more I learn about my American government the more depressing it all seems. It's ironic that in this time we need hope, and the program Project Hope that encouraged Hispanics to continue on into college, has recently died. What does this say about our country? I do hope that we shall recover from the issues, economic and otherwise, that we are currently experiencing. Differences in beliefs aside Obama is our president and if we have ill wishes for him we have ill wishes for the country that many of us call home, including myself.

M.I.A: JANE DOE

Girls are mysterious, double and triple threats, and they are without a doubt some of the most intriguing creatures around. I have to say I've been very busy trying to do all and be all myself. Definitely why I've seemingly been missing in action for awhile. Is anyone else feeling the college pressure yet? Lets just say so far if you aren't in the city, you need not spam up my mailbox! I'm keeping my options open though... Anyway I was sure to take some new photos of a girl who posed as my real jane doe- part mystery and part beautiful doe eyes.
