Merry Christmas! I hope everyone had a wonderful couple of days and is enjoying their break.

The flight here was absolutely horrible, just a nightmare but once we got to the hotel it was alllll better. I love it there so much and it's been almost set that I'm getting married there so you'll all be able to see it one day :) Christmas Eve, I stayed home while my parents and great aunt went to church because I was still sick and didn't want to tire myself out. Nochebuena was a lot of fun as always, the cuban dinner, the family...we filmed it which was definitely a good idea. Spent the night at my grandparents and Christmas morning, presents! wahoooo. Then my aunt, uncle, and cousins came over again and we exchanged gifts. I did really well as usual, not quite as much as I usually get but definitely good. Before we left (from ny) my parents showed me that they had gotten me a dartboard, and hockey foosball table for the basement which was reallyyy neat. Then here I got cds, movies, perfume, jewelery, clothes, games, bags...pretty much everything I wanted. Last night, went back to the hotel got a movie and some room service and that's pretty much it. Today I'm at my aunts...it's kind of boring but in a good way. It's too cold to swim, so I'm playing with all my Christmas gifts and I get to hang out with my fave cousin who I pretty much haven't seen since last christmas. I'll probably watch Napoleon Dynamite in a little while. Or maybe I'll go for a drive..I think I might be going to the DMV and getting my permit! How cooooool.

Tomorrow I think my cousins are coming to the hotel and we're gonna do spa and have a little cocktail party in my parents room before going out to dinner.
I'm feeling much better and just taking it easy, and having a great vacation.

The good thing about getting older and getting less excited about Christmas is that it's not so sad when it's over. It's actually better because you get to play with all your new stuff :)

Wishing everyone the best<3

i'd still pick my friends over you...

my journal is now
FRIENDS ONLY

-not to be paranoid, but i'll be able to write a lot more openly without thinking about the endless possibilities of who's reading-

<3

caught in a craze, it's just a phase, or will this be around forever?
"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blooms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone. You count on it, rely on it to buffer the passage of time, to keep the memory of sunshine and high skies alive, and then just when the days are all twilight, when you need it most, it stops."

-- A. Bartlett Giamatti

wahhh, I miss baseball!!

though that's what this quote was intended to talk about, I feel like it can apply to so many other things too...many confusing, hard things we're all going through right now.

hang in there guys..
i love you all and i love talking to you all...thanks for keeping me going

<3

Found another one!


This one's a little bit funnier though.
I'll admit it took me a minute to actually get it (I just thought it was the U.S. and Canada)

Well, enjoy

<3, woohu's little angry democrat (and danielle of course)

Take a chance you stupid ho...

the art of losing
wow. we lost. but im not going to sit here and mope and complain, as there are many things to blame it on. lack of clutch hitting, bad relief work by ahem jose, errors, the hugeness of joe robbie stadium. these are all things that if made opposite, the yankees could have easily won the series. but they didnt, so why try to justify the past and whats already happened. true fans will say "wow that was an amazing season, we'll get em next year, hey we beat boston" and thats what it was like being in yankee stadium, in my opinion, one of the top 5 most amazing places on this earth, as that ground ball by posada was thrown to first (or was he tagged out, idk i didnt watch) and the marlins started celebrating, not one of us shed a tear. everyone was proud of the boys for the crazy ride they had gone through this year, and the way they managed to pull that club together and get this far. am i sad? yes, do i wish they would have won? yes, am i dissapointed in the players? absolutely not. the yankees and their fans pride and dignity cannot be shaken by any loss, not even in the world series, at home, without any runs, to an expansion team, yes an expansion team. the yankees have been around for a century. the tradition behind that team is so amazing, and the fact that they can have a classic-go-down-in-history-come-from-way-behind win in the bottom of the 11th at home in game 7 of the alcs against boston the second best team in baseball, shows that the heart, soul, and talent of the yankees cannot be touched by any loss not even in the world series, at home, without any runs, to an expansion team. I am so happy that this year i finally followed my liking for the yankees. im really surprised though at how much i learned and how much i really love baseball and that team. and even though my first year as a serious fan didn't end nessesarily the best way, i could not be any happier. so on monday and tuesday and when i go to miami, i will wear my baseball cap with great pride because i dont feel more proud wearing anything else. as joe dimaggio said "id like to thank the good lord for making me a yankee" :)

so congratulations yankees on an amazing season...you deserved all of it. and dont blame yourselves or anything else. its okay to lose every once in a while, it only makes you stronger and better. good luck and your fans will be waiting your return when the 2004 yankees are goin all the way again, and this time winning :)


^^^My post after the Yanks lost the world series a year ago. Obviously things are a little different than they were then. There was no dramatic game 7 win. Boston beat us. But reading that sort of gives me a glimmer of hope that I'll be able to get over this sooner than I thought. I've accepted that the Sox (gulp..) DESERVED to win this. They fought their mfing asses off and played with so much heart.

Losing is okay. Crushing, heartbreaking, go-down-in-history, potential curse breaking losses, are okay...

We just haven't had 86 years of practice. :)

So, we'll see you in 05 Yanks. I can't fucking wait. It's gonna be another crazy, amazing year. I'm so grateful to have something like this to look forward to, follow, and be passionate about. I'm happy to experience something like this so young to get used to crushing losses. Hopefully there won't be many more soon. Things are gonna be a little more boring without a game to watch every night, but hey, there's always next year.

AND GO CARDINALS!
