In Memory of Rosa Salvador

I meant to write this last night, but I was so drained after crying my eyes out I just couldn't. Rosa Salvador was a wonderful woman who went to my church who recently passed away. She had immigrated from the Philippines to the United States a long long time ago. I don't recall when. She learned English until it was almost perfect although even the last time I spoke to her she greeted me in Tagalog and spoke with a bit of an accent. When I was very young she would tell me stories about when she lived in the Philippines in Tagalog, the language she spoke growing up, and I actually understood her. But, I am sad to say I barely recall the stories and have no recollection of the language. I was very very young. She was quite old and near the end of her life she would cry every time she saw me and tell me how beautiful I am and that I was grown so big.

I just want to say that I loved this woman and know she is in a better place now and I hope that she knew how much I cared for her.

Sorry if this is a downer, but the world, even the tiniest corner that is this blog needed to hear about Rosa.

another video

This band used to be one of my favorites when i was in middle and high school. I was reminded of this song and decided to post the video. The video itself is a bit strange but I think it is beautifully done and I just love the song and the feeling it gives.

25 Reasons Why Guys Fall in Love

Ok, so here is the scoop, I am much too exhausted to do much more than sleep and copy and paste so, I was forwarded this by a friend and thought I would share it because i had to catch my breath because this is really sweet. Plus this was supposedly written by a man, I don't know if it is true or not, you be the judge. Here they are 25 reasons guys fall in love.

1. They will always smell good even if it's just shampoo.


2. The way their heads always find the right spot on our shoulder.


3. How cute they look when they sleep.


4. The ease in which they fit into our arms.


5. The way they kiss you and all of a sudden everything is right in the world.


6. How cute they are when they eat.


7. The way they take hours to get dressed but in the end it makes it all worth while.


8. Because they are always warm even when its minus 30 outside.


9. The way they look good no matter what they wear.


10. The way they fish for compliments even though you both know that you think she's the most beautiful girl on this earth.


11. How cute they are when they argue.


12. The way her hand always finds yours.


13. The way they smile.


14. The way you feel when you see their name on the your cell after you just had a big fight.


15. The way she says "lets not fight anymore" - even though you know that an hour later....


16. The way that they kiss after you have had a fight.


17. The way they kiss you when you say "I love you".


18. Actually...Just the way they kiss you...


19. The way they fall into your arms when they cry.


20. Then the way they apologize for crying over something that silly.


21. The way they hit you and expect it to hurt. * i think every girl is guilty of this :)


22. Then the way they apologize when it does hurt (even though we don't admit it).


23. The way they say "I miss you".


24. The way you miss them.


25. The way their tears make you want to change the world so that it doesn't hurt her anymore...



Yet regardless if you love them, hate them, wish they would die or know that you would die without them it matters not. Because once in your life, whatever they were to the world they become everything to you. When you look them in the eyes, traveling to the depths of their souls and you say a million things without trace of a sound, you know that your own life is inevitable consumed within the rhythmic beatings of her very heart. We love them for a million reasons, no paper would do it justice. It is a thing not of the mind but of the heart.


A feeling.


Only felt.

My Birthday is Coming Soon!

So, my birthday is approaching soon! in just two short weeks I will be 20. Then it will be just a year until I am 21 and then I will be able to hang out with my friends a bit more.

Yea, I know kind of a strange thing to be excited about. However, I am excited. My friends are almost all older than me and can go out to bars and clubs. Then we can all be together. Yes, 21 is the legal drinking age and that would be what others would be excited about, but I don't think that I will be all that crazy for alcohol.

Anyway, just thought I would give you a heads up!
