Hopeless Wanderer

As I think about how this year is coming to an end, I can't help but to reflect on what has happened and as of lately I have been doing more than enough self reflecting.
It's a bittersweet feeling to realize that this year is almost officially over; but endings are just new beginnings in disguise.

Don't Hold Your Breath

Well this is about to get personal....

So I've written a couple of posts and the majority have been about my life, therefore classifying them as personal. But I find writing helps me a lot, it helps me put my thoughts somewhere, it helps me realize things and it helps me let go of things. I have always resorted to writing as therapy, and hey, sometimes I even write pretty awesome stuff. I once started writing a book, well a couple but as an Aries, I'm great at starting things and never seeing them through. (Great quality there) 

Anyway, it's been almost a month since I wrote anything and every time I write here, I do it with the intention to reflect. A couple of weeks ago, something significant happened, and it was probably the best thing that could have happened to me this year. 

I went through a break up.

Insomnia called....

So tonight, like many other nights, most nights actually, I find myself awake at a very late hour. (2:22AM) And it's only at night, that I can hear every single little thing that goes on around me.
Don't get me wrong, I am a lover of the night but how can I want to exist and be productive at a time where my whole world is paused.

And usually this is the time when I edit or I catch up on my shows, which I will talk about soon, because I am a TV addict.

I haven't been consistent with the blog because life gets so busy but that doesn't mean it hasn't been on my mind. I always find writing helps me clear my mind.

So I do have to give out a fair warning, some posts in the future may not make sense, not even to me.

Anyway, this past week was good, it rained a lot in Miami but I had a few shoots which I think went great. This week I am having some more for one of my finals. I will soon start sharing series from the past!

I am also traveling in about 20 days or so and I have to find a new traveling bag and have no idea where to start. All I know is that I'm gonna need to leave the shorts at home and pack as many sweaters as I can. I love Ecuador but I hate it's climate, too cold for little ol' me.

Well I am off to watch something before this gets too long and pointless.

Here's a little something that reminded me that my talent is being curious, and the only way to be make curiosity a talent is with passion.
You can do anything and make it amazing when you have passion.

Goodnight,

Winter Winds

Hello all,

I wanted to share a quick story from today, so without further a-due, here it is.

For days now my sister has been asking me to get her a bracelet at the mall, today I finally got to it. Now if you know me, you know that for me going to the mall is both a wonderful and dreadful thing because I have a bit of a shopping addiction. Lately, for months now actually, I have avoided the mall to the max, specially lately since I was sort of laid off, or more like screwed over, but we're not going to get into that. 

I was walking around the mall, I bought a dress I loved, I bought a face cream I shouldn't have bought but I know it'll be useful and I got a free panty (Thanks VS!) and on my way back to my car, after 30 minutes of walking and shopping, I almost bumped into this little girl who couldn't have been more than 9. She suddenly came out of a store as I was walking and when she looked at me, I smiled at her...she immediately smiled back and hugged my neck. Her father scolded her but I embraced it and told him with a kind smile that it was okay. This little girl made my day, her love, though not intended for me, brought up my spirit so much. 

Now you're wondering, "So a 9 year old hugged you? Big deal!". Well ladies and gentlemen, this 9 year old little angel appeared to have down syndrome and when she hugged me I was confused but not scared and while she grabbed me, I thought about how grateful I was for everything I had and at the same time, I was sad that this little girl, who is probably the sweetest thing ever, has had to encounter people who judge her because of her unique being.
