I'm a traitor.
I'm a proud Hispanic woman. Brown Pride! Yet, I must confess something.
I love Asian food!
I can't help it. It's my absolute, hands down, favorite food ever. Japanese. . . mmm, sushi! Chinese. . . mmm, fried rice! Vietnamese. . . mmm, rice cakes!
So I just want to say, thank you to all the Asian people who moved to American and brought their yummy yummy food with them.
Also, thank you for my awesome fortune today.

I love that I'm a survivor.
I love that so many people love and support me.
I love that I've made a positive impact.
I love that I'm smart and funny.
I love that I'm beautiful.
I love that I'm confident.
I love that I have so many people to love.
I love that I have a faith stronger than anything in this world.
I love that no matter what happens. . .
I will survive.
Fuck you, Miguel. It truly is your loss. I honestly believe that, and that is what makes getting over you that much easier. It's just too bad that you are still a boy. . . and I need a man.
Any takers?
One lobotomy, please

If someone could please remove this constant lump in my throat, tightness in my chest, brick in my stomach, and all memory what-so-ever of Miguel in my brain, I would greatly appreciate it.

Whenever things suck, God has a way of showing me that they could always be worse.
I just lost the man I thought I wanted to marry. For no apparently good reason. Other than he's "not ready for all that." My world was turned upside down in a moment.
By the way, thank you everyone for your supportive words, they really do help. And thank you Courtney for being my confidant through all of this, I always look forward to chatting with you.
So my cousin/roommate J-MO was with this girl, S.J., for over a year. They broke up almost six months ago, but have continued dating, trying to work on the possibility of getting back together. They both love/loved each other very much. Last Saturday J-MO walked in on S.J. laying in bed, half clothed, with another man. She said it was the only time. He found out last night that it's been going on for over a month.
J-MO is done. There's no way he could ever trust S.J. again. His heart is broke ten times what mine is right now. We've been emailing all morning, both sharing our feelings of broken-heartedness and how we are fighting the urge to hurl.
At one point, I asked my deeply devoted Christian cousin, "What do you think God would say right now if I could ask him WHY?"
J-MO responded with, "That he has someone better for you."
It's still hurts like hell, but at least I can take comfort in the fact that God does have a plan for my life. Things will get better, life will go on.
And hopefully Miguel will get herpes.

Brandy - Have You Ever
- Have you ever loved somebody so much
It makes you cry
Have you ever needed something so bad
You can't sleep at night
Have you ever tried to find the words
But they don't come out right
Have you ever been in love
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away
You'd give anything up to make them feel the same
Have you ever searched for words to get you in their heart
But you don't know what to say
And you don't know where to start
Have you ever found the one
You've dreamed of all your life
You'd do just about anything to look into their eyes
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for that day when they will care
What do I gotta do to get you in my arms baby
What do I gotta say to get to your heart
To make you understand how I need you next to me
Gotta get you in my world
'Cuz baby I can't sleep
This song came on the radio when I stopped for gas this morning. I totally fucking broke down right there in the parking lot.
It hurts so fucking bad. I never knew. I never knew.
And another one bites the dust

Nothing good ever comes from someone saying the words,
It was nice knowing you, Miguel. Thanks for reminding me how much love sucks.
Fuck it all. Fuck it all to hell.
