Regardless...

Regardless of the times I've gotten my heart broken, I still believe in love & I know it will find me when the time is right ;)

Sometimes...

Sometimes I don't really get myself. I am so not bipolar but I must say, at times I can be happy or sad or simply quiet. I like how I can just listen to music and get lost in this other world. I love that feeling, especially when my mind goes blank and all my worries go away. That's how I'm feeling right now. I am thinking about nothing and it feels so good. I love especially when I realize how lost I can get, when I realize that it is possible to clear my mind even though sooner or later I have to face reality. I've been using my bike a lot more lately and I am determined to learn how to play the ukulele over winter break. I just can't wait! 

this is how i feel right now, and this is how i wish i could stay :)

buenas noches ciberamigos!

One picture, a thousand words

this is what i wish i could be doing right about now

capturing life's precious moments.....

instead, i'm stuck at home....dreaming.

In This Moment...

In this moment....

I am determined to be the bets that I can

Be different in my own way

Live the way I want to, wherever I want to & 

with whoever I want to.

In this moment...

I am determined to love myself,

To let love come to me at the right time 

& at the right place.

I am determined to push myself 

& live in the moment.

In this moment...

I am determined to put my thoughts

on paper & let them free for the world to see

because I am no longer afraid.

I am no longer your prisoner.

yours truly,

L. 

I want to ride by bicycle, I want to ride my bike!

I never realize how fun it is riding a bike until I actually ride one. I have a road bike that my dad got at a garage sale at a super cheap price. This bike has change my life because it just makes me feel so cool! haha (i'm serious though!) I feel like at times I take it for granted because I don't make good use of it. However, I've started taking it to school & riding back to my place. I love feeling the breeze run through my body when I am riding down hill because going up hill is just a pain in the ass! (I need to get in shape before I start biking to school). I think riding a bike instead of driving means a lot to me because I am not only helping the environment (hint hint) but it also remind me of my mom. My mom does not know how to drive but she rides her bike EVERYWHERE!! She motivates me to ride my bike even though I drive her around when I go home to visit. SO, I have made a promise to myself and that is to ride my bike as much as possible because it is really a cool feeling. Not only am  I exercising, but I feel like so much better about myself knowing that (most of the time) I am not contributing to the horrible pollution that is slowly killing our planet. With this said, I shall leave you all with a link to a super cool website that all of you should check out! & a super cool video (that you can find in the website as well) that I hope can serve as motivation!

unrequited love

enough said. 

what is love?

It is 10:29pm, 29 minutes passed by bedtime...yes i go to sleep quite early, but, somethings have been on my mind for quite a while. LOVE. What is love exactly? When I think of the word love, I think of couples walking down the street, holding hands, a kiss here and there. However, love is more than that. Love comes from family, friends and even pets! We find love in the things that makes us happy, whatever that might be. And I must say, I feel really loved! I love my major, I love my family and I have amazing friends but sometimes I feel like I need a different kind of love. The kind of love that comes from that significant other. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find that significant other. I am starting to think that I am cursed, that I'm a hopeless romantic, or that I am not good enough to deserve my better half. I've been listening to sad love songs nonstop....so not fun! I am simply torturing myself. My patience is slowly fading away...wait, what patience? My mom keeps bugging me with comments like "when are you going to have a boyfriend?" or "I think it's time for you to get a boyfriend so you can feel more at ease" blah blah blah (Believe me mom, I really want a boyfriend too!) Not to sound desperate but, I am a 20 year old college student who has not have her first kiss, date or boyfriend (BUT I am not ashamed to say so).

Love will come to me, love will find me, love will not give up on me. It is silly how I can talk about my crush nonstop, or how my friends and I can talk about boys and how complicated they can be but truth is, at times, I am happy to be single because love is something that shouldn't be rushed. In order for love to find us, we first need to love ourselves (which something that I am currently working on!). Some people have told me that I am better off without a guy but that is because they have already experienced the whole dating thing, I have not. Truth be told, I am afraid of committing or getting too attached to the person. When people last a long time is because they keep the love alive, but at times they last a long time because they're just used to each other. Some things are not meant to be, some things are not meant to last and people just gotta move on.

I guess it is true when people say that a person might be the one for you, but you might not be the one for them (or something like that). Point is, love will find us, there is no need to rush because this life is too short to see it disappear in a blink of an eye.

Love is love, love is complicated, love is beautiful, love is confusing, love is family, love is friends, love is every breath we take, love is us. Simple as that.
