No. Not close. This blog will remain. I will still use it, but exclusively to the times when I want to translate something. I have to confess that it became a lot of work for me having to translate everything I wrote or feeling as if I had to. Well, I really wanted to, but it became too much. Especially now that I'm taking so many classes and I'm really focused on my career and education. There's not a lot of time for blogging. But yes, this space remains. But now there will be two more, so really, there is is gaining for everyone. Just go to your preferred language. I hope you guys enjoy them!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**************************************************&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;De este dia en adelante este blog sera partido en dos. No. No sera cerrado. Este blog continuara. Aun lo seguire usando pero exclusivamente a las ocasiones en las que quiera traducir algo. Debo confesar que se convirtio en mucho trabajo el tener que traducir todo lo que escribia, o al menos, sentia como si deberia hacerlo. Bueno, la verdad es que deseaba hacerlo, pero se convirtio en mucho trabajo. Ahora estoy tomando demasiadas clases en la universidad y estoy realmente enfocada en mis estudios y carrera. No hay mucho tiempo para bloguear. Pero si, este espacio continua. Ahora habran dos, asi que realmente es ganancia para todos. Solo ve a tu idioma de preferencia. Espero que los disfruten!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://multifacetedliving.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;ENGLISH&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;/&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://multifaceticavida.blogspot.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#ffcc33;"&gt;ESPANOL&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-8182871668438498318?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/8182871668438498318/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=8182871668438498318&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8182871668438498318'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8182871668438498318'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2010/04/he-luchado-con-mi-bilingualismo-ive.html' title='He Luchado Con Mi Bilinguismo/ I&apos;ve struggled with my Bilingualism'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-2973674979367005214</id><published>2010-02-15T19:28:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2010-02-15T19:42:58.162-04:00</updated><title type='text'>The Drafts below, Entradas mas abajo</title><content type='html'>Todos estos han sido guardados por algun tiempo y aun estan sujetos a cambios, incluyendo esto post.

Amamos las cosas porque o alguien nos las inspiro o hemos tenido una encuentro intimo y profundo con aquella cosa que amamos. Aveces podemos amar las cosas en un nivel muy superficial, por ejemplo, yo amo las artes escenicas, pero las amo porque me gusta hacerlo, me siento bien mientras lo hago, pero nunca podria vivir la vida de una persona que vive de esto. No estoy dispuesta a trabajar en cada detalle y aprender cosas religiosamente con el fin de que algo resulte de cierta forma, para cosechar ciertos beneficios. Creo que esto tambien debe ser parte de lo que fue inspirado o aprendido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;I think I realized today the reason why we love things. We love things because either somebody instilled that in us or we have had a very deep and personal encounter with that which we love. Sometimes we can love things in a very superficial level, for example, I love performing arts, but I like to perform because I like it; I feel good while I do it. But I could never live the life of a performer. I am not willing to work on every detail and to learn things religiously in order for something to come out a certain way, to reap a certain benefit. I think that that too should be part of what was either instilled or learnt with such an intimate strength that it all becomes a part of performing. But, when someone loves something in an intimate way, there is no possible way that someone else could understand or experience that which that person loves, it could not even have to be the same kind of love that everyone has for the apparent same thing. For example, you could say that I love the mind, and yes, I do, but it began with my mind, with analyzing every thought and pattern, what was good and not good about it, what was sane and what was insane. So, why do we love things? Does everyone else have to love in the same way we love? Does everyone else have to feel the way we feel? I have learnt to love my own way, and to throw away any system that wants to make me love the way they love. I love my own way, my own crazy way, so if I love theater that does not mean that I belong solely to the theater and that I have to do everything possible to be that. I love everything I love in the way that I love it. It may be parts of it. It may only really be bits, but never tell me I dont love it, because maybe, just maybe, those bits may speak to me much more than the whole picture speaks to everyone else.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Always love life, every single part that speaks to your life and that could benefit your life and the life of humanity.....&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3659790785000467658?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3659790785000467658/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3659790785000467658&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3659790785000467658'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3659790785000467658'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2010/02/draft-from-december-1st-2009.html' title='Draft from December 1st, 2009'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-251218429746494084</id><published>2010-02-15T19:24:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2010-04-05T00:43:52.214-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>Draft from October, 2009</title><content type='html'>Cada pensamiento que borras son planetas que nos separan aun mas lejos, perdidos por siempre en palabras eternas que no hemos enunciado; de labios, deseando hablar, con palabras, con lenguas, con besos.

Today, I give you this, because no matter how much I wish I couldnt write it, or think it or feel it, it has overpowered every single intent, and taken over. This thing loves you, caresses you, desires you and wishes more than anything to sing sweet nothings or everythings in your ears. This beautiful thing yearns to hug you, call you it's own and bless you, embrace you and paint your beautifulness. This beautiful thing today wants to touch and let go, to miss you, and miss you, and have you all over again. This thing wants the impossible and unimaginable superpowered event of having you, of mothering you, of womaning you. This thing intends to exault you, and adore you, to convince you and smile you. The everything wants to be your everything, the hands want to touch your hands. The lips want to to speak with the upper, then the bottom, then the opening, then the tongue, and the rivers that unite this magical, impossible tale. Today, I want to write you something beautiful, perhaps something passionate, something too much to bear, something that breaths..... and lets out, and cannot control the thoughts, the impulses. Today, the beautiful makes you it's beautiful, the love makes you it's love, the pain makes you it's pain. I wish I had you....&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-544006607203772394?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/544006607203772394/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=544006607203772394&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/544006607203772394'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/544006607203772394'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2010/02/draft-from-september-15th-2009.html' title='Draft from September 15th, 2009'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3851160704547626194</id><published>2010-02-15T19:13:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2010-02-15T19:15:35.332-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>Dear Soulmate, Draft from August 12th, 2009</title><content type='html'>Every happy day is a hard day for me. I can only think of the time when I can share my life with you. I don't spoil many people and it's been a while since I let someone spoil me. I wish so bad that you were here. I wish so bad to make you laugh, to kiss you, hug you, make fun of you, fight with you, make up with you... I wish I could write you all of these poems that I keep wanting to write, but I can't, because I feel like I'm betraying you somehow. I don't. I don't know you. I just know that you are alive somewhere and that you belong to me. I'm not like every other woman and I can't settle just for a good man. I need you. I need you to hold me and love me. I need you to challenge me and disagree with me. I need you to love me for who I am, not for an idea of who you want me to be, but for who I really am. I can't wait to have you in my life and share amazing moments. I want to offer you all of me and treat you like a king. I want us to make each other happy. I want to make love to you. I want to unleash all of the woman that I am, but just to you and only you. I'm waiting for you. I already feel like I love you. Maybe because I know how much I will. But I'm tired. I'm tired of dramatic and painful relationships, and I'm tired of shallow and circumstancial relationships. You know who I am, right? You know I'm not perfect right? You know I'm wonderfully imperfect, right? Please come to my arms, they ache with nothingness, emptiness, purposeless. They long to hold you.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3851160704547626194?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3851160704547626194/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3851160704547626194&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3851160704547626194'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3851160704547626194'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2010/02/dear-soulmate-draft-from-august-2009.html' title='Dear Soulmate, Draft from August 12th, 2009'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8169934840881599296</id><published>2010-02-05T17:09:00.012-04:00</published><updated>2010-02-05T17:29:21.863-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFotos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiArte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiArt'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPictures'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Mis Pinturas/My Paintings</title><content type='html'>I'm not a painter but this the way I have been expressing my feelings lately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;No soy pintora pero de esta manera he estado expresando mis sentimientos ultimamente.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S2yK_nL0m0I/AAAAAAAAB0w/gFBfRDmieqg/s1600-h/SSPX0507.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px;

Trichotillomania is an Obsessive Compulsive disease in which the person pulls out their hair due to stress, despression, boredom and other motives. The most common is pulling from the head and least common is the eyelashes or any other hair from the body. I would like anyone out there who knows anything about this to please provide information because there is no cure known for this disease. Here I leave you with a link to my best friend's blog, &lt;a href="http://delamarlife.blogspot.com/"&gt;Living With Myself. &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;*********************************************************&lt;br /&gt;Hoy acabo de leer una entrada que escribió mi mejor amiga que me precupó mucho porque sabía que ella tenía esta enfermadad llamada &lt;a href="http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tricotiloman%C3%ADa"&gt;Tricotilomanía&lt;/a&gt;, pero no conocía la gravedad de su condición. Tricotilomanía es una una enfermedad obsesiva compulsiva en la que la persona se saca el pelo a causa de estrés, depresión, aburrimiento y otros motivos. El más común es halarse los pelos de la cabeza y el menos común es halarse las pestañas o cualquier otra parte del cuerpo. Quisiera que cualquiera que sepa algo sobre esto por favor provea información porque no existe cura conocida para esta enfermedad.

Pero mi corazón está contento. Deben saber que estoy bastante atariada con la universidad. Estas han sido las semanas de exámenes y eso puede volver a algunas personas locas. Yo hago lo que tengo que hacer, doy lo mejor de mí, no pienso mucho en el asunto y vivo mi vida. Mi corazón está 100% contento. No podría estar mejor! Estoy cansada y con sueño, pero mejor que nunca, más saludable que nunca, más felíz que nunca. Aveces una sola cosa.....o una sola persona puede hacer la diferencia entre aspirar a ser la mejor y realmente estar dispuesta a pasar cualquier dificultad con tal de ser la mejor. Le deseo a todos muchas bendiciones y mucho amor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No se olviden de dar, lo que quieran recibir!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Dad, y se os dará; medida buena, apretada, remecida y rebosando darán en vuestro regazo; porque con la misma medida con que medís, os volverán a medir.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lucas 6:38&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************************&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes I just dont really know what to write because what I really want to say might be too private to publish it here. But my heart is content. You should all know that I'm super busy with school. These have been the weeks of midterms and they can drive some people crazy. I do what I need to do, give my best, don't think too much about it and live my life. My heart is 100% content. I couldn't be better! I'm tired and sleepy, but better than ever, healthier than ever, happier than ever. Sometimes just one more thing.......or one more person in our lives can make the difference between aspiring to be the best, and actually be willing to go through anything to be the best. I wish you all many blessings and I wish you all much love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do not ever forget to give, what you would like to receive!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luke 6:38&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

/&gt;The way that I love you is in many ways like water.&lt;br /&gt;My love is pure and refreshing.&lt;br /&gt;My love is violent and can sweep anything away in order to get everywhere.&lt;br /&gt;My love can be like an iceberg and can also burn way below its boiling point.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My love for you is like a fruit,&lt;br /&gt;like a million kisses,&lt;br /&gt;like sugar was made out of it,&lt;br /&gt;like candy companies would go out of business&lt;br /&gt;if you were willing to sell your kisses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My love for you is like words,&lt;br /&gt;they sneak into every part of life,&lt;br /&gt;they define things and explain things,&lt;br /&gt;they make me fly and bring me down.&lt;br /&gt;My love is written in every word of every book in the whole world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My love for you is both an ocean and a desert.&lt;br /&gt;You leave me breathless and you are my air all at the same time.&lt;br /&gt;You light my days and darken my nights.&lt;br /&gt;I love you both sweet and sour.&lt;br /&gt;I love you both hot and cold.&lt;br /&gt;I love you when I don't want to love you,&lt;br /&gt;and I love you inexplicably when I want to as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My love is like a poem that can't be written.&lt;br /&gt;There are no rules, no rhymes,&lt;br /&gt;no hyperboles, metaphors, allegories that could ever be enough.&lt;br /&gt;I would love you if the word love didn't exist.&lt;br /&gt;I would use anything to describe it and it wouldn't be enough.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You are all and nothing in different ways.&lt;br /&gt;You are mine and someone else's in different moments.&lt;br /&gt;All I have is this love,&lt;br /&gt;that bursts with its mightiness&lt;br /&gt;and burns with a passion that cannot quite be called passion.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you like there is no future,&lt;br /&gt;like if I was waiting for us to part every minute of every day,&lt;br /&gt;like if I had to love you this much,&lt;br /&gt;with this intensity, because I wouldn't know if you'll be there&lt;br /&gt;the next millisecond.&lt;br /&gt;I love you without intention.&lt;br /&gt;Wishing not to love you is loving you more.&lt;br /&gt;Wishing to leave you is getting closer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you&lt;br /&gt;because without effort&lt;br /&gt;you tore down&lt;br /&gt;everything I thought made me strong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you so much that sometimes I laugh and sometimes I cry.&lt;br /&gt;I love you so much that sometimes my heart moves with an uncontrollable laugh.&lt;br /&gt;I love you so much that sometimes my heart hurts like a bullet just entered,&lt;br /&gt;warmed it up and produced nothing more but a terrible pang.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I love you like the word love is not enough.&lt;br /&gt;Te amo con palabras y sin versos.&lt;br /&gt;I don't need words to love you, but I have nothing else to express it.&lt;br /&gt;I don't need anything else to love you,&lt;br /&gt;but I want more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am trying to find the place where this love would fit.&lt;br /&gt;The only thing I've known in my life bigger than this love is God,&lt;br /&gt;and baby,

mano,&lt;br /&gt;porque para qué volar si no estás conmigo?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Volemos.&lt;br /&gt;Ahora.&lt;br /&gt;Sin miedo.&lt;br /&gt;Porque si lo hacemos juntos no nos caeremos.&lt;br /&gt;Pero si volamos separados, nuestra caída será fatal,&lt;br /&gt;y caeremos lejos el uno del otro,&lt;br /&gt;y nuestras manos no podrán sanar las heridas mutuas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hombre

estrellas en el cielo,&lt;br /&gt;porque las que ya existen no son suficientes&lt;br /&gt;para expresar cuánto nos amamos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ya mis palabras han perdido la verguenza,&lt;br /&gt;y a cada instante pretenden enamorarte más.&lt;br /&gt;Aveces con un Te Amo,&lt;br /&gt;un poema, una historia, un chiste.&lt;br /&gt;Ya no saben hablar de otro tema que no sea de tí.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's fly.&lt;br /&gt;Now.&lt;br /&gt;Fearless.&lt;br /&gt;Because if we do it together, we won't fall.&lt;br /&gt;But if we fly separately, our fall will be fatal,&lt;br /&gt;and we will land away from each other,&lt;br /&gt;unable to let each other's hands heal our wounds.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Man of mine.&lt;br /&gt;Stubborn.&lt;br /&gt;Let's fly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The

/&gt;We have no other choice but to fly.&lt;br /&gt;And forget the gray of yesterday's sky.&lt;br /&gt;We will paint millions of stars above,&lt;br /&gt;because the ones that already exist&lt;br /&gt;are not enough to tell how much we love each other.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My words have no shame,&lt;br /&gt;and they pretend to romance you more everyday.&lt;br /&gt;Sometimes with an I Love You,&lt;br /&gt;a poem, a story, a joke.&lt;br /&gt;They wish to speak of nothing else but you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let's fly.&lt;br /&gt;Let's create new words and new ways to caress.&lt;br

que nos mantienen conectados. Siempre debemos mirar nuestras vidas de la manera más positiva posible. Debemos de buscar de Dios o cualquier metodo de espiritualidad que funcione con cada persona. En este blog no hablo mucho sobre mis creencias porque es bastante personal para mí. Pero quisiera aclarar que por más fuerte que sean mis creencias no podría privar a una persona de cualquier método espiritual que lo haga vivir una vida más balanceada. Al final del día, cada quien cree lo que quiere creer y vive como quiere vivir. Pero siempre estemos conscientes que nuestra espiritualidad es importante, que las buenas obras son importantes, que los buenos pensamientos son importantes, las buenas relaciones. Mantengámonos conectados con las cosas buenas y nuestras vidas serán mas fáciles de vivir, y haremos las vidas de los demás más fáciles al igual.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Que viva el amor, la paz, la nobleza y la unidad!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***********************************************&lt;br /&gt;At the end of the day the small things are the ones that keep us conected. We should always look at our lives in the most positive way. We should search the face of God or any other method of spirituality that works for each individual. In this blog I don't speak a lot about my beliefs because they are rather personal for me. But I'd like to make clear that for stronger that my beliefs may be, I could never prohibit someone for whatever method of spirituality makes them live a more balanced life. At the end of the day everyone believes what they choose to believe and live their lives the way they want to live it. But we should always be aware that our spirituality is important, that good works are important, that good thoughts are important, good relationships. Let's keep ourselves connected to good things and our lives will be easier to live, and we will make other people's lives easier as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To love, peace, humbleness and unity!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-5767407998367909032?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/5767407998367909032/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=5767407998367909032&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5767407998367909032'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5767407998367909032'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/10/little-thingslas-cosas-pequenas.html' title='Little Things/Las Cosas Pequeñas'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-2366207855889290899</id><published>2009-10-19T11:30:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-19T11:46:30.399-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPoetry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><title type='text'>For J.....2 Months</title><content type='html'>No one knows&lt;br /&gt;how love can take you&lt;br /&gt;and make you fly&lt;br /&gt;but us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No one knows&lt;br /&gt;how unpredictable&lt;br /&gt;and unrestrainable&lt;br /&gt;love is&lt;br /&gt;but us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everything in here&lt;br /&gt;speaks volumes&lt;br /&gt;of our union.&lt;br /&gt;The heart sings melodies day and night&lt;br /&gt;and I let him sing.&lt;br /&gt;I tell him: someday, someday.&lt;br /&gt;And he obediently&lt;br /&gt;and patiently&lt;br /&gt;waits for the day&lt;br /&gt;when he can kiss&lt;br /&gt;and love&lt;br /&gt;with all its might.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Happy days go by.&lt;br /&gt;Happy because we know we're still here,&lt;br /&gt;Happy because we know we still love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And just like it only took two months to fall crazy,&lt;br /&gt;it could only take two months to reunite,&lt;br /&gt;to miss, to speak, to see,&lt;br /&gt;to finally kiss, and live next to the other....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2 Months is my hypothesis.....how about yours?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-2366207855889290899?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/2366207855889290899/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=2366207855889290899&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2366207855889290899'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2366207855889290899'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/10/for-j2-months.html' title='For J.....2 Months'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3772536712678429977</id><published>2009-10-13T11:34:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-13T14:13:35.781-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiCelebraciones'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiCelebrations'/><title type='text'>Post 100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</title><content type='html'>Este es el post número 100 de este blog!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No lo puedo creer! Debo confesar que por un tiempo existió en mí una incredulidad acerca de si podría mantener este espacio abierto y activo sin sentir la tentación de cerrarlo o abandonarlo. Y no ha sucedido! Este blog se ha convertido en algo que simplemente no puedo dejar. Es mi espacio, y sé que por ahí hay muchos que luchan con mantener sus espacios abiertos. La verdad es que podría decir que mi secreto es que me gusta. Me gusta mi blog. Me gusta tal vez más que lo que les gusta a mis lectores. Antes de este tuve otro blog público, pero era como un martirio. Creo que tenía la idea errónea de lo que significaba tener un blog, y además estaba demasiado atenta a la reacción del que leía, tenía mucho en mente lo que el lector pensaría de mí. Ahora, solo tengo lo que quiero ofrecer para ofrecer, exactamente de la manera que lo quiero ofrecer. Sin presión alguna. Esto no es ningún negocio. Es divertido!! Bueno, este post 100 también me lo gozo!

And it hasn't happened! This blog has becomed something that I simply cannot leave. It's my space and I know that there's plenty around who fight with keeping theirs opened. The truth is that I could say that my secret is that I like it. I like my blog. I like it perhaps more than my readers like it. Before this blog I had another public one, but that one was pure anguish. I think I had the wrong idea of what it meant to have a blog, and besides I was too aware of the reaction of the reader, I had too much in mind what the reader would think about me. Now, I only have to offer what I want to offer, exactly in the manner in which I choose to offer it, haha!&lt;br /&gt;No pressure whatsoever. This is not a business. It's fun!! Well, I'm also enjoying this 100th post! Enjoy the links of some of my favorite posts!! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/10/uno-mas_19.html"&gt;One More&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/11/i-want.html"&gt;I Want&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/11/invierno.html"&gt;Winter&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/12/la-belleza-de-la-sabiduria.html"&gt;The Beauty Of Wisdom&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/whenever-i-feel.html"&gt;Whenever I Feel&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/101-things-about-me.html"&gt;101 Things About Me&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/frustrated-reflection-on-ayn-rand.html"&gt;A Frustrated Reflection On An Ayn Rand Interview&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/nueva-york-nueva-york.html"&gt;New York, New York!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/un-dia-raro.html"&gt;A Strange Day&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/mi-amiga-del-alma.html"&gt;My Soul Friend&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3772536712678429977?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3772536712678429977/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3772536712678429977&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3772536712678429977'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3772536712678429977'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/10/post-100.html' title='Post 100!!!!!!!!!!!!!!'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3597724332212436673</id><published>2009-10-13T11:02:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-13T11:33:08.500-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiction'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>Starbucks Part 2 (English Narrative)</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Relacionado con las series de Starbucks. Las puedes encontrar en &lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/search/label/MultiFiccion"&gt;este link&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the following days she couldn't get that man off her mind. She imagined how he would respond to different things. She asked him questions and answered them for him. She fancied the idea of having this man in her life be a new special somebody. But she struggled with bringing it all to reality. She couldn't deal with this amazing feeling. She had to, in some way, quiet it down, tone it down. But she made his whole personality up from then on, expecting to be dissapointed the next time she saw him. Expecting him to be a product of her imagination, and then being relieved, that she wouldn't have to go through falling in love. She was terrified of it. She knew she had no limits after then, but now she had the power of witholding it all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He thought of her, plenty. Laughed at the things that had amused him about her personality. He thought of how secured she was, but how carelessly she let her vulnerabilty be displayed right in front of his eyes. It was to him, like discovering a diamond that had been shining right under people's noses and they never noticed it. He wanted to be the man that would sweep her off her feet. In fact, he was almost sure that he would be that man. And he was confident in that fact. So confident that he had the audacity to not show up the following Sunday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She waited, anxious. Waited. Waited a bit longer. He never showed. She was dissapointed, but then she was happy. She thought that he was not worth her time, not even as a friend. She was glad of this disappointment. All her life she expected people to fail to their commitments. She was fearless. Expected nothing. Received nothing. She sheltered herself on her own ideas and beliefs. From time to time someone would impress her. But it wouldn't last long, and it was like another ball in the basket. She would score again. Say to herself: 'no one can be trusted'. However, the following Sunday, she showed up again, lying to herself. She did in fact have more important things to do. She said she would only stay 15 minutes, then 30, then 45. Two whole hours she read and had coffee. And just when she had been tired of looking at that door expecting that tall older man enter, the very thing happened.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He walked in and saw her. Walked straight to her, asked her if she was leaving. She affirmed, acting cool, nervous, almost in disbelief.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'You want to go for a walk?'&lt;br /&gt;'Yes, where are you going?'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They walked, talked, and what happened will be told, when the narrator knocks on this door, walks through it and tells you something about these lives once again...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be continued...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3597724332212436673?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3597724332212436673/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3597724332212436673&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3597724332212436673'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3597724332212436673'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/10/starbucks-part-2.html' title='Starbucks Part 2 (English Narrative)'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-2582115589855601102</id><published>2009-10-11T09:55:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-10-11T09:58:06.915-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><title type='text'>For You......Te Vi Venir</title><content type='html'>I'm dedicating this song to a very special somebody who quickly entered my life and filled it with hope and faith in love again.

The man did not look up to see her. The day was nice. It wasn't too cold or hot. People came in and out, most looking for chairs. He had asked for the last one available. So people were forced to leave, hesitant, just in case someone might get up. She was enjoying her novel. It was the time when she had seen one of Jane Austen's favorite lines in Sense And Sensibilty. She had written about &lt;strong&gt;deserving the &lt;em&gt;compliment &lt;/em&gt;of rational opposition&lt;/strong&gt;. The &lt;em&gt;compliment&lt;/em&gt; of rational opposition! Wow, she thought, how many people have I complemented in life! But it also amused her how this very simple girl seemed to know so many complicated things about extremely simple people who pretended to be complicated. And it was then that she realized how much time she had wasted, but how much more time she now had on her hands to focus on giving people who deserved it, that marvelous compliment. And then he looked up. She noticed. She pretended she didn't. He said, 'excuse me, you are really enjoying that book, aren't you?' She affirmed, planning to go right back into it, smiling inside, questioning if he really was what he appeared to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He noticed how big the book was and learnt that it was a collection of the seven novels.

He thought there was something odd about her, something mysterious, or intriguing. She began to see him as a psycho and payed no mind. He apologized for interrupting her, looking for something else that she might say that would allow them to talk some more. She said, 'you're not bothering me, I am fond of observers, there's a lot to learn and teach from them'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She asked wether he was a teacher or a learner. She liked his smile. He talked fluently. She soon realized that he was witty and they went on to have a conversation for a few more minutes, a conversation that would eventually lead to, probably not exactly what the reader might expect. But something that the writer is not in the mood of giving away, not just yet....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To be continued...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-4553809452551704071?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/4553809452551704071/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=4553809452551704071&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4553809452551704071'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4553809452551704071'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/starbucks-part-i-english-narrative.html' title='Starbucks Part I (English Narrative)'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7173179839152943984</id><published>2009-09-24T14:20:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-24T14:21:44.670-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPostSecret'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFotos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPictures'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Every Day...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/STYNN7KlTAI/AAAAAAAABeU/tgGJ5AOdFts/s1600-h/Chiquita1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275418546382654466" style="DISPLAY: block;

(Cut him some slack, ya'll) &lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;El chiste de la semana fue: Tal vez, en el funeral de Patrick Swayze, Kanye West le quitará el micrófono al sacerdote para decir que Michael Jackson tuvo la mejor muerte del año, hahaha!

They seemed to understand the language of mine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But your hand interrupted the conversation. It began to touch my fingers, gently and then wildly, until desperately flying to my neck.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Then your eyes said something I couldn't understand. All my energies were on that hand; that rough, heavy, warm hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It traveled to my shoulder, brushed my hair back, squeezed my muscle, touched delicately the beginning of my arm. Focused and dedicated; it circled my elbow, danced on the way to my wrists and grabbed my hand again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My other hand touched your lips, and my lips opened, demanding to be fed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They devoured your mouth, spoke volumes, made love, did not plan on parting, and enjoyed ferociously that embrace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now your hands, &lt;em&gt;both of them&lt;/em&gt;, squeezed my neck, let themselves waterfall through my back, rested on my waist, squeezed my hips and separated me urgently from you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My hands, my eyes, my lips were emptier than ever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I woke up.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;***********************************************************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo me volví hacia ti y ahí estaban: Tus Ojos; esperándome, saludándome, sonriendo, invitando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mis ojos respondieron, miraron maliciosamente, rieron intensamente, aceptaron la invitación.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Viajaron de tu cara al cuello, explorando y despidiéndose como el Delta del Nilo, mudándose hacia los hombros, expandiéndose como mapa, encontrando montañas y árboles, y rutas jamás mencionadas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Se separaron en dos caminos, hasta encontrar al sur dos grandes fundaciones que descansaban sobre el suelo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tus ojos eran tan inocentes, tan llenos de curiosidad, parecían comprender el lenguaje de los míos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero tu mano interrumpió la conversación. Comenzó a tocar mis dedos, sutil y después alocadamente, hasta volar desesperada hacia mi cuello.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Después tus ojos me dijeron algo que no pude comprender. Todas mis energías se concentraban en esa mano; esa áspera, pesada, y templada mano.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Viajó hacia mi hombro, sacudió mi pelo hacia atrás, apretó mi músculo, tocó delicadamente el principio de mi brazo. Enfocada y dedicada; circuló mi codo, bailó hacia mi muñeca y tomó mi mano una vez más.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mi otra mano tocó tus labios, y mis labios se abrieron, demandando ser alimentados.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Devoraron tu boca, hablaron volumenes, le hicieron el amor, no planearon una despedida, y disfrutaron ferozmente esa unión.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Y ahora tus manos, &lt;em&gt;ambas&lt;/em&gt;, apretaron mi cuello, se dejaron caer como cataratas por mi espalda, descansaron en mi cintura, apretaron mis caderas y me separaron con urgencia de ti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mis manos, mis ojos, mis labios, nunca estuvieron tan vacíos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Desperté. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-1271001778612765335?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/1271001778612765335/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=1271001778612765335&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1271001778612765335'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1271001778612765335'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/emptyvacios.html' title='Empty/Vacíos'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SrFYuKm3lfI/AAAAAAAABs4/RmsH_XFqgV8/s72-c/emptyhands.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8145356430698640344</id><published>2009-09-14T09:15:00.001-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T20:04:43.246-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiArte'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPoesia'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLiteratura'/><title type='text'>Para Jorge Piña</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sq4fps5wDBI/AAAAAAAABsw/b3pYPm9_Qas/s1600-h/jorge+pina.jpg"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381273406042803218" style="DISPLAY: block;

Decirle al papel lo que se quiere, lo que no se quiere, lo que se imagina y el hecho que no escapa de ser hecho.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero se escribe sobre escribir? Se escribe acerca de la incómodo que es escribir en Español en una computadora portátil, donde no se pueden marcar los acentos? Se escribe sobre como se frustra el escritor porque nunca puede escribir a la velocidad en la que se piensa? Se escribe acerca de cómo se sienten los dedos al teclado, o el lápiz al papel; como aveces un papel puede inspirar un escrito, o lo puede inspirar una palabra, o la manera en la que se escribió antes de escribir aquello que fue inspirado? Se escribe acerca de cómo aveces los personajes cobran vida y es como si el escritor no tuviese control alguno, como si el personaje fuese el que le ordena al escritor quién es y lo que ha de escribir? Algunos personajes son bastante atrevidos, amenazan al escritor y le dicen todo tipo de barbaridades. Otros, al próximo instante de ser creados desean allí mismo ser fusilados, y otros se van apagando cada día más al ver su dura, cruda y predecible existencia plasmada en un papel. Tal vez la culpa es mía, por no saber describirlos, por no saber alimentarlos, por no saber amarlos u odiarlos, por no encontrar las palabras correctas, o el lugar correcto, o la intención correcta. Tal vez se trata de mi propia vida que se mete intrusa en la vida de mis personajes. Tal vez no quiero realmente inventar personajes. Tal vez quiero reinventar mi vida, hacerla más fantástica, más creativa, más emocionante, o tal vez &lt;em&gt;menos&lt;/em&gt; fantástica, menos creativa, menos emocionante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hace tanto tiempo que no escribo como realmente quisiera escribir. Hace tanto tiempo que siento que mis palabras murieron como peces capturados, dejados por muertos, abandonados, moribundos a las orillas del mar. Hace tanto tiempo que siento que mis palabras se esfumaron con un amor, con un libro, con un acontecimiento, con la melancolía, con la rabia, con la creatividad que realmente le pertenecía a otro escritor. Y sí, esto es una prueba. También es una huelga, al hábito de ignorar las palabras que fluyen y gobiernan sin permiso mi vida. A todas las veces que he tenido la oportunidad de escribir algo mágico y no lo he hecho. Es una prueba a todas mis intenciones. Abrí una bitácora(blog) con el pretexto de escribir cosas muy superficiales, muy cotidianas, muy de la prensa cuando en realidad lo que siempre he querido hacer es publicar mis propias palabras, mi propio estilo, mi propia voz. He querido disfrazarlas, doblarlas, editarlas, arrancarlas, morderlas. Algunas veces me las he comido y las he vuelto algo completamente ajeno a mí. Entonces, qué es esto? Esto es MAS que una prueba. Es más que una huelga. Es una DECISIÓN, es una revolución de palabras que ni Anel Vicente sabía que Anel Vicente tenia. Escribiendo sobre escribir, escribiendo sobre las veces que he querido, no he querido y he estado confusa acerca de querer escribir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pensé porque tal vez no había sido bendecida con la educación más expectacular del planeta, porque no acostumbro a leer a los GRANDES escritores hispanos, tal vez no tengo DERECHO a escribir. Tal vez mis escritos son muy crudos, muy directos, muy desabridos. Pero tal vez esa es la parte en la que debo confiar, que si es suficientemente bueno para mí, es suficientemente bueno para el mundo.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-1198130220265187042?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/1198130220265187042/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=1198130220265187042&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1198130220265187042'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1198130220265187042'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/escritora.html' title='Escritora?'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sq4dS83QtXI/AAAAAAAABso/MlNsCR2BTeI/s72-c/escribir.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7159712825774684773</id><published>2009-09-14T06:56:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-14T07:00:52.286-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>Can I Be A Writer?</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sq4aPeNqVvI/AAAAAAAABsg/xrWJGLs-66Q/s1600-h/writing.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 270px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5381267457865045746" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sq4aPeNqVvI/AAAAAAAABsg/xrWJGLs-66Q/s400/writing.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;While reading &lt;a href="http://www.amazon.com/Brief-Wondrous-Life-Oscar-Wao/dp/1594489580"&gt;Oscar Wao&lt;/a&gt;, amazed, breathless, I begin to wonder how it is for a real writer. I close my eyes and breath. I ask myself: What does it feel like? To have the power to describe the sublest thing, to be able to describe things so beautifully and so perfectly. To have the magic to transport a reader to the exact image of his mind, without forgetting one detail, one word, and above all leave the escence that somehow remained without being fully divulged, manisfesting them to light while they still hide in shadows, making them roar with silences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is it a gift? I ask myself. Can it be learnt? Can it be taught? Am I doomed to failure? Or will I forever be the expectator and never the performer?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a hypocrisy in me. I wish for it to just come naturally, yet I keep pushing myself to be better, to master it, to conquer it, to have it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And I wonder if perhaps I'm thinking to myself that it is something that's hidden in me not yet unlocked; or is it that I'm greedy and cannot cope with the fact that I'm not a successful writer even to myself, to be able to touch a reader like &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Junot_D%C3%ADaz"&gt;Junot&lt;/a&gt; does. I debate myself wether I'll ever be good or if it's that I'm already good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm a hypocrite. I refuse to follow other people'sd standards like some cult or set of rules I &lt;em&gt;must&lt;/em&gt; follow. Yet, these are the same people I'm hoping to wow; for them not to call me a perfect writer, but at least a writer that is able to touch others deeply even at my low capacity.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can I be naturally good and still push myself to be good?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can I be original, write with my own words and escence and &lt;em&gt;still&lt;/em&gt; learn? What is it that I must learn? Am I perfecting my own words without noticing, or is it a semi-conscious effort of my mind, of my want?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know if I could write, yet I'm still doing it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-7159712825774684773?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/7159712825774684773/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=7159712825774684773&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7159712825774684773'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7159712825774684773'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/can-i-be-writer.html' title='Can I Be A Writer?'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sq4aPeNqVvI/AAAAAAAABsg/xrWJGLs-66Q/s72-c/writing.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7220230839610902356</id><published>2009-09-14T06:55:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-14T20:59:59.112-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiTelevision'/><title type='text'>Little Children</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/bxO5YbQwuDw&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/bxO5YbQwuDw&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'm on a money AND time diet, and it seemed odd to me to have to wait for TWO weeks for a good movie to appear on cable, one that I hadn't already seen, haha.

Por qué duele tanto mi tierra? Qué soy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hace tiempo que no lo sé. No lo puedo comprender. Si me preguntas de donde soy te diré que vengo de una tierra llamada República Dominicana. Si me preguntas de donde soy, te diré que soy de Nueva York.

Se supone que la mayoría de las cosas que los Dominicanos comparten sean parte de mi? Qué es ser Dominicano? Existe una definición? Acaso es lo que todo el mundo es? Qué es? Las lágrimas salen. No lo puedo creer. No puedo creer que yo no pueda ser Dominicana. Adónde pertenezco? De dónde soy? Por qué amo tanto a esa tierra y aborrezco a tanta gente que viene de ella? Por qué se contradicen en mí la imagen de un Juan Luis Guerra y un Hipólito Mejía? Por qué me duele? Qué es lo que soy? Ningún Dominicano quiere saber de mi pasión por la lectura, o por escribir, o por cambiar para bien. Ningún Dominicano quiere saber que el cambio comienza por uno mismo. Ningún Dominicano quiere ser Dominicano. Tal vez la definición que tiene el Dominicano sobre ser Dominicano no es la mía. No soy ‘bachatera’ ni ‘reguetonera’. No apoyo el machismo de ninguna manera, ni si quiera en pequeños comentarios. No soy fanática de ningún partido. No me interesa hablar callejeramente sobre sexo. No me gustan los chismes. Todos mis conocimientos de la ‘pelota’ son meramente circumstanciales. No caigo por ninguna ‘muela’, ni porque me digan mami, chula, linda o que estoy ‘buena’. No conozco en plenitud la historia Dominicana y tal vez en este aspecto soy más Dominicana. La única diferencia es que no le veo mucho sentido porque lo poco que sé demuestra que el pueblo Dominicano siempre ha sido lo que aun es: Un pueblo ignorante que insiste en destruirse a sí mismo. Un pueblo que exige derechos y privilegios que no está preparado para asumir, porque no importan todas buenas intenciones de un líder, lo que importa es que de alguna manera ese líder será corrompido. No importa porque hoy en día lo sigo viendo en ‘maestros’ Dominicanos en las escuelas públicas e universidades utilizando el salón de clases no como una vía para enseñar, sino para promover sus propios intereses. Recién llegados hablando todo tipo de barbaridades en autobuses y trenes, faltándole el respeto a la gente, ‘chamaquitos’ privando ser hombres y niñas privando ser mujeres. DONDE???? Dónde están los líderes Dominicanos que aman la República Dominicana???? Dónde están los líderes Dominicanos que tienen un interés sincero para que echemos pa’ lante??? Vamos a disfrazar lo que no tenemos y hacerle a la gente creer esta allí?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Estoy confundida. Estoy dolida. Mis influencias son Estadounidenses, y si son de Latinos, también vienen de influencias Estadounidenses. Y duele. &lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Duele.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entonces, soy Dominicana? Soy Americana? Si Junot nunca hubiese venido a vivir a los Estados Unidos, fuera Junot lo que es hoy? Estoy confundida. Estoy dolida, y si ustedes tienen la respuesta a mi pregunta, por favor díganmela. Acaso soy un fraude? Y si lo soy, adonde dejo las cosas que amo de mi cultura? Adonde dejo al teatro, al folklore, al merengue, al mangú, arroz, habichuela, sancocho, toda la comida típica. Adonde dejo el Español y las palabritas que distinguen el nuestro como dique, chin, fuá y tantas otras. Adonde dejo la música de Juan Luis Guerra y Chichi Peralta? Adonde dejo la salsa del Canario, la cerveza Presidente, los anuncios de Barceló y tantas otras cosas lindas de mi país? No es esto también ser Dominicano entre otras cosas? Entonces por qué le damos publicidad a la ignorancia y no a las cosas que nos hacen especiales? Por qué seguimos discutiendo política destructiva y relaciones corrompidas? Por qué está bien que una niña de 13 años tenga ‘marido’? Por qué la Educación no importa? Acaso no tengo derecho a exigir más de mi país? Acaso porque no soy Dominicana?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero no se trata del país, y no voy a disfrazar mis intenciones. Se trata de mí. Se trata de mi identidad. De querer encontrar una influencia Dominicana como la influencia Afroamericana que he tenido. Se trata de poder hablar con orgullo de algún Martin Luther King Jr. Dominicano o un Barack Obama. Se trata de toda la gente que me dice que no parezco Dominicana. Y si no soy Dominicana, ni Afroamericana, ni Americana, &lt;em&gt;QUE&lt;/em&gt; es lo que soy?????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;*****Actualización******&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Relacionado con este post, la entrada de Henry Francisco: &lt;a href="http://hfrancisco.blogspot.com/2009/08/ayercuando-yo-era-dominicano.html"&gt;Ayer, Cuando Yo Era Dominicano&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-6839850533065112948?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/6839850533065112948/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=6839850533065112948&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6839850533065112948'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6839850533065112948'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/dominicana-soy.html' title='Dominicana Soy...'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqU7zGWUOII/AAAAAAAABsA/96CT4cD964g/s72-c/obelisco.png' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-1189845071942411697</id><published>2009-09-07T13:09:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-29T20:10:24.056-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPostSecret'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFotos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPictures'/><title type='text'>Mi Amiga Del Alma</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 326px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 398px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5378755078459978770" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqUtPvlvdBI/AAAAAAAABr4/6cVl52XGG8M/s400/Yo,+Lui,+Mar.jpg" /&gt;She left me friendless. The last words were harsh and painful. I cried my eyes to sleep and tried to pretend it didn’t matter. Sometimes something happens that hits you so hard that the only way you can go about it is really quiet. I harbored the feelings for two years. Two years I hated her, I wondered if she was ever my friend. Two years I blamed her for making me believe that she was. Two years I felt like a big part of me was detached, like somehow it didn’t happen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See, there’s this thing that people know but no one really talks about. When you have not found your soulmate but you have soul friends, then even if you may not know it your soul friends matter more than any momentous boyfriend could ever matter. Subconsciously, you’re certain that no matter how many boyfriends you may have, you still have your best friend supporting you through it all. You expect to have dramatic romantic relationships, but your relationships with your friends are never dramatic, never complicated, never catty, jealous, rancorous or envious. So, when your best friend ignores you, trades you for a boyfriend, does not support you in your darkest hours and blatantly offends you and hurts you, the pain… is almost too much to take.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I pretended she never existed. I forbid my other best friend from talking about it. I went on with my life. I never called. I never e-mailed. I even pretended I didn’t see her on the street when I did. And somehow I had lost a little faith in trusting people. So, one day my own words saved me. I took a piece of paper and began to write her a letter. I told her exactly what I wanted to tell her. How I wanted to pretend she was far away but still my friend, how I loved her and cared about her and wish I didn’t. And the weeks following the mailing of that letter, all the pain began to lift from me, all the hurt, all the feeling of betrayal. I felt like I was finally free. I saw her like a friend I once had that was simply an acquaintance today. I was happy and surprised. Could this be the first broken relationship from my past that I had finally resolved? Could it? But it was nothing more than an illusion and I still don’t know why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Perhaps I fooled myself by going to see her, thinking that she could see me as an acquaintance like I saw her. Perhaps I thought that it would be easier, simpler, and quicker. But sometimes, when someone shows you that they care about you, you secretly begin to believe they do. I didn’t know it. I didn’t even realize it until I saw myself defeated once again. My subconscious played a joke on me. I believed we were friends again. I believed that things had changed and because I was not hurt anymore I didn’t prevent myself or really protected myself for another disillusion. I thought I had mastered it, but I hadn't. I began to believe in my ‘friend’ again. I began without noticing to trust my friend again. I could’ve sworn that everything I was sharing was something you share with an acquaintance. But I thought she had changed. I thought that she was now capable of being a friend, of caring, of supporting. Was I seeing what I wanted to see? Was my mind playing a trick on me? Was I doing what many psychologists have explained, changing my past memories to accommodate my current ones? Was I used? Was my friend making me believe that she was my friend for the purpose of having me care once again about her? I guess I should’ve seen it when she said I should come by more often. I guess I should’ve never gone by again, should’ve never shopped with her, called or texted. I guess it’ll always be that way. I’ll always wish I didn’t care and could never erase it all or forget it all. I guess only one of my soul friends shall remain a true friend. I guess there’s just things in life that we’ll never be able to understand or fight. All I can do is distance myself, hope that the same mistakes will never be again, hope that it never happens with my one true soul friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you Mar for always being there. BTW, I really don’t want to talk about this.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-1189845071942411697?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/1189845071942411697/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=1189845071942411697&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1189845071942411697'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1189845071942411697'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/mi-amiga-del-alma.html' title='Mi Amiga Del Alma'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqUtPvlvdBI/AAAAAAAABr4/6cVl52XGG8M/s72-c/Yo,+Lui,+Mar.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-4845599407403442442</id><published>2009-09-03T16:43:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-03T16:47:14.459-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Busy Bee</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAoT3Pt6PI/AAAAAAAABrQ/1aa6lr3MZsE/s1600-h/Busywoman.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 353px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 379px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377342276792871154" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAoT3Pt6PI/AAAAAAAABrQ/1aa6lr3MZsE/s400/Busywoman.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;No he publicado más entradas debido a las demandas de tiempo que tengo. He empezado la Universidad una vez más ahora con 6 materias. Lo que más me molesta de estar tan ocupada es que en vez de apaciguar mi creatividad, la alimenta; y el no tener tiempo de plasmar esa creatividad en un papel me molesta sobremanera. Intentaré publicar cada 2 semanas al menos. Tal vez no tenga mucho tiempo para leer sus bitácoras, pero lo haré en cuanto tenga tiempo. Creo que mis entradas se harán cada vez más interesantes, estén sintonizados!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************************************&lt;br /&gt;I have not published more posts due to the lack of time I have. I have begun College again now with 6 courses. What bothers me the most is that instead of lowering my sense of creativity, this heightens it; and not having enough time to write that creativity in a piece of paper bothers me a lot. I will try to publish at least every two weeks. Perhaps I won't have time to read your blogs but I will as soon as I have time. I think that my posts will be more interesting, so stay tuned!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-4845599407403442442?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/4845599407403442442/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=4845599407403442442&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4845599407403442442'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4845599407403442442'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/busy-bee.html' title='Busy Bee'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAoT3Pt6PI/AAAAAAAABrQ/1aa6lr3MZsE/s72-c/Busywoman.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-4133234584464385511</id><published>2009-09-03T16:42:00.002-04:00</published><updated>2009-09-03T16:47:01.529-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPostSecret'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><title type='text'>Inside My Head</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAm5GlCB1I/AAAAAAAABrI/yzXIReWJyOA/s1600-h/distantcouple.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 233px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5377340717540706130" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAm5GlCB1I/AAAAAAAABrI/yzXIReWJyOA/s400/distantcouple.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Will I always live alone in this world of mine?

Many say that love is blind. Many say that love is painful, that he or she that loves gives everything up for the loved one and cries for the loved one. Others believe in a more passionate kind of love, with a lot of physical attraction and sex. Love may also become something you're used to or settle for. But in reality, what is love? What is it? Is it this which I have described? Every couple is different. It would be difficult to identify who is in love for real. There is no definition or certainty. If there was, divorce wouldn't exist. I ask myself, what is love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In my life, I have experienced several kinds of love, but for a period of time I thought that I only loved when I suffered. Now I feel so different. I think that you only love once, and that is when you find the right person. Most of us settle with less than what we need or deserve. I have dreamt a thousand times of the man I want to be with. Only pieces of him have been granted to me. Every single relationship I've had has something my dream man has. It's sort of like someone who needs a good Dominican meal. You need rice, beans, meat, salad and fried plantains. I have had each separately and I'm never full. I'm starving, hahaha. I think that love more than anything should be easy, it should come easy, without a lot of effort, without having to work hard to please the significant other, or make them think that we are what we are not. It's necessary the interest and understanding of both parties, not have everything in common, but understand each other and have what the other needs in a partner. Maybe I should write a book about love. Too many thoughts come to mind that would take a long time to edit, and probably no one would want to read such an enormous speech. But in reality, can we really define love?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************************************&lt;br /&gt;Creí necesario hoy en día no sé por qué, hablar del amor. Muchos dicen que el amor es ciego. Algunos dicen que el amor es doloroso, que el que ama lo da todo por su amado y llora por su amado. Otros creen en un tipo de amor más apasionado, con mucho sexo y atraccion física. El amor aveces también se vuelve costumbre o conformismo. Pero qué en realidad es el amor? Qué es? Es esto que yo he descrito? Cada pareja es diferente. Sería difícil identificar quiénes se aman de verdad. No existe una definición o una certeza. Si fuese así no existiera el divorcio. Me pregunto qué es el amor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;En mi vida he experiementado varios tipos de amor. Pero en un tiempo por alguna razón pensé que solo amé cuando sufrí. Ahora pienso tan diferente. Pienso que solo se ama una vez, y es cuando uno encuentra a la persona indicada. La mayoría de nosotros nos conformamos con menos de lo que merecemos o necesitamos. He soñado mil veces con el hombre con el que quiero estar. Solo se me han concedido pedacitos de él, no él completo. Cada una de las relaciones que he tenido tiene algo que quiero en el hombre de mis sueños. Es como cuando alguien necesita una buena comida Dominicana. Necesitas arroz, habichuelas, carne, ensalada y plátanos fritos. He tenido cada uno por separado y nunca me lleno. Me muero del hambre, hahaha. Pienso que el amor más que nada debe de ser fácil, debe venir fácil, sin mucho esfuerzo, sin tratar arduamente de agradar al otro, o hacerle pensar que somos lo que no. Es necesario que exista un interés y comprensión de ambas partes, no que tengan un mundo en común sino que se comprendan y que el uno le pueda dar al otro lo que necesita. Tal vez debería escribir un libro sobre el amor. Son demasiados pensamientos que llegan a mi cabeza que me tomará muchísimo tiempo editar y que probablamente nadie querrá leer tan larga cátedra. Pero en realidad, podemos definir el amor?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-4127404137227739192?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/4127404137227739192/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=4127404137227739192&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4127404137227739192'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4127404137227739192'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/09/amor.html' title='Amor'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SqAaN-3MV7I/AAAAAAAABqg/-fDd70dkZhY/s72-c/What_Is_Love.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7135051780746189966</id><published>2009-08-25T21:17:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-25T21:25:41.499-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Ay, ay, ay!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SpSPBaJrh3I/AAAAAAAABqY/HqJB9x0Zd7A/s1600-h/tiempo1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374077509722408818" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SpSPBaJrh3I/AAAAAAAABqY/HqJB9x0Zd7A/s400/tiempo1.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tengo como 10 entradas medio escritas sin tiempo para terminarlas, editarlas, etc. Y a muchos blogs que adoro que no tengo tiempo de visitar.

It was the premiere of &lt;a href="http://www.amctv.com/originals/madmen/"&gt;Mad Men&lt;/a&gt;. Goodness, I got so exited! Specially after seeing one of the actors there. I had never seen this show before, but I got curious one day because &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/01777227083105313992"&gt;Baakanit&lt;/a&gt; had mentioned it. I loved it since I saw it, and I cannot believe that I missed the exclusive premiere in my city. The Ad for the event was New York Has Gone Mad. Aw, I loved it. I couldn't stay because I was hanging out with pretty hungry people who don't watch the show. But the event was very nicely set up. They had sat people in tables with white sheets. They had waiters serving them in those 60's uniforms, white jackets, black ties. I even heard that there were people dressed like the 60's competing for a prize. It was very unique and I wish I had planned on going.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the way to the restaurant I once again remembered by blog friend Baakanit who has &lt;a href="http://hoy-he-visto-algo-raro.blogspot.com/"&gt;a blog about the strange things&lt;/a&gt; he bumps into in New York. I saw this homeless guy holding a piece of carton that read: CAN I HAVE A BEER, MAN. Hahaha, so original and honest too, I gotta give him that. I wonder how often people give him money and it was sort of a nice contrast, having just seen the Mad Men event and that kind of advertising. I guess that even the homeless need good advertising, huh?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We ate and then went back to where the event had been. Everyone was gone and things were being put away. I had never sat in those TKTS stairs, but for some reason I did having my coffee. And then I found a funny looking notebook. It was really strange looking. I saw a woman writing behind me and I asked if it was hers. She said no and then I proceeded to read. It turns out that the little notebook belonged to a dancer, and this person writes the most important things about the dances she/he choreographs. Gosh! It was so poetic. I loved it, and then about halfway through the notes, I really felt like returning it. But I have no idea who is the owner and there's too many different numbers and names, also adresses not only from New York, but from other states. So, I've decided to keep it and read it from time to time. Those dance notes can really inspire me to write some pretty neat things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anywho, it was a very strange day. But I also loved it. Wow, I even went to a weird Starbucks that didn't have chairs! I looked at the girl behind the counter smiling like if I knew something she didn't and said: excuse me, where are the chairs? She smiled and said that they don't have any, that that's more like an express Starbucks. I thought that was pretty cool. It's awesome for those who need to grab their coffee and run.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I swear I wanted to take pictures and send them to my 'raro' Blother. But I had forgotten to take the camera :D&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-8282290220883461323?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/8282290220883461323/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=8282290220883461323&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8282290220883461323'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8282290220883461323'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/un-dia-raro.html' title='Un Dia Raro'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyXuShoqZI/AAAAAAAABqI/f3maomt7CM4/s72-c/madmentrain.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-463661722785213184</id><published>2009-08-19T18:46:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-19T20:31:58.512-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>Old Wounds</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyWRlqXaeI/AAAAAAAABqA/HanQ3DnEJiQ/s1600-h/heartwound.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 298px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371833684457908706" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyWRlqXaeI/AAAAAAAABqA/HanQ3DnEJiQ/s400/heartwound.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aveces uno no se da cuenta de la razón por la que le pasan las cosas y tenemos que mirar hacia atrás para poder comprender.

She's 17 and is falling in love with New York. I don't know if I'm doing the right thing by showing her the things that I love the most about this city. I'm not exactly an expert, but there's things I love and know I couldn't leave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We walked from 33rd street to 47th. There's never anything boring about this city. I bought her a Frapuccino and she has sorta had a crush on Starbucks ever since. Hahaha, not only that, but I also make all kind of coffees in my house and she claims that mines are better (I seriously doubt that). After walking around and introducing her to some of my friends who work around there, we went to 42nd street and she had a Cold Stone ice cream. She was so surprised by it and she again fell in love with the ice cream. We sat at the Starbucks next door to eat ice cream, talk about life, have a few laughs. Hahaha, I hope &lt;em&gt;someone&lt;/em&gt; doesn't feel like I'm cheating on her. (I'm such a whore, I take everyone to the same places. Haha) Anyways, so there we saw all of the different people passing by. I said: One the things that I love most about New York, is that you can be anyone you like and no one cares. We're all so different, but the thing that unites us is exactly that. I love New York. I couldn't live anywhere else. Where else could we have so much diversity so easily accesible?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't hope for my cousin to want to come live here one day. I don't think she could handle it. She was terrified when I cursed out a pervert who wanted to grab her and talk to her. But I hope that when she leaves, she's a bit edgier and she knows that there's more to life than the people she goes to school with and her immediate family. I hope that one day she can take me to all of the places she loves where she lives, introduce me to her friends and teach me something I don't know about my own country.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3519025710530453101?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3519025710530453101/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3519025710530453101&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3519025710530453101'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3519025710530453101'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/nueva-york-nueva-york.html' title='Nueva York, Nueva York!'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyVakaHSoI/AAAAAAAABp4/LPT1CN9Tq0g/s72-c/glaser_i_love_ny_revised.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-2022320817314621436</id><published>2009-08-19T17:59:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-19T20:43:36.843-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><title type='text'>Pervert</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyTF_t-pII/AAAAAAAABpw/bR6KNjljtWc/s1600-h/nytrain.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 292px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5371830186759070850" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyTF_t-pII/AAAAAAAABpw/bR6KNjljtWc/s400/nytrain.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Tengo una prima que visita de RD, y he estado saliendo con ella, dándomela disque de guía turística. No sé si estoy haciendo lo correcto porque a mi prima le está gustando demasiado Nueva York. Hemos visitado varios sitios en lo que he podido. Y hasta ahora, lo que más le ha gustado, o mejor dicho, lo que la ha vuelto adicta ha sido Starbucks. No quiere salir si en el transcurso del día no nos damos una vueltecita por allá.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un pervertido en el tren quería hablar con mi prima (tiene 17 años, alta y esbelta, rubia y de ojos verdes) pero el tipo ya lo habíamos visto molestando a otra chica. Pues el tipo y su amigo estaban embelesados mirando a mi prima y el perv se sentó opuesto a ella y casi le toca el brazo. La sangre me hirvió. Salté de mi asiento y le grité que se mueva de ahí con mi cara amenazante. Estaba lista para pegarle si era necesario. El tipo quiso actuar como que nada había pasado o como si yo estuviera loca, pero aun estaba en guardia, solo esperando que me quisiera enfrentar para yo caerle encima. Se paró del asiento burlándose de mí y habló con el amigo como si mi prima y yo no hablásemos Inglés. El tipo que estaba sentado le dijo: Esa es su novia? Y el otro le dijo: No, esa es su mamá. Y este le contesto: no loco, no hay manera que esa pueda ser su mamá.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo me senté tranquila. Le cambié el tema a mi prima. Pretendí que no me molestaban, pero aun estaba lista para que si aun lo veía molestando a otra chica, le iba a llamar a la policía por indecente y pervertido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este tipo de cosas me sorprende mucho sobre mí. Yo no soy una persona confrontacional. Yo no busco peleas ni pleitos y mucho menos con gente que no conozco. Usualmente no me interesan las loqueras con las que pueda salir la gente. Pero siempre he dicho que defiendo a mi familia y a mis amigos con todas mis fuerzas, y esta vez me dí cuenta hasta cuáles extremos esto puede llegar. Le dije a mi prima: entiende esto; yo soy muy linda y muy tranquila, pero cuando alguien se mete con la gente mia, me vuelvo una animal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un amigo me dijo que yo exageré, que mi prima es muy bonita y que eso es normal. Pues sí, claro que es normal, pero un pervertido que ande molestando a todas las chicas que ve no es normal. Si él hubiese sido menos agresivo, más amigable, menos obvio. Si hubiese dejado de mirarle el cuerpo y le hubiese mirado la cara, y si yo no hubiese visto a la otra chica que huyó molesta de donde él, creo que no hubiese reaccionado así.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ustedes qué piensan, exageré?&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-2022320817314621436?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/2022320817314621436/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=2022320817314621436&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2022320817314621436'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2022320817314621436'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/pervert.html' title='Pervert'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoyTF_t-pII/AAAAAAAABpw/bR6KNjljtWc/s72-c/nytrain.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-1239857428874809045</id><published>2009-08-18T19:03:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-18T19:09:47.666-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Ahhh!!!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoszvwRrR0I/AAAAAAAABpo/QXn_7FmFAPQ/s1600-h/tiempo.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

Me despierto creyendo que mi sueño se ha vuelto realidad. No le digo a nadie, pero sospecho que un día será así. No aceptaré menos de lo que he imaginado. Sospecho que la vida se disfruta solo cuando sabes quién eres y lo que quieres. Creo que lo sé :D y todo lo que he hecho con tal de alcanzar este momento ha valido la pena!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc00;"&gt;*******************************************&lt;br /&gt;At night, when I should be falling asleep, I find myself painting the world as the happiest place ever seen. I wake up all happy believing that my dream came true. I don't tell anyone, but I suspect that one day it'll be that way. I won't take anything less than exactly the way I've imagined it. I suspect that life is enjoyable only when you know who you are and what you want. I think I do :D and everything I've done to achieve this moment has all been worth it! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-8306810428816977760?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/8306810428816977760/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=8306810428816977760&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8306810428816977760'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8306810428816977760'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/at-night.html' title='At Night...'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoC2LBEVEkI/AAAAAAAABnw/lH0zEO1gy7E/s72-c/sleeping.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3743534596097174461</id><published>2009-08-10T19:25:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-10T20:18:00.574-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiTelevision'/><title type='text'>Cortometraje: Pienso, Luego Existes</title><content type='html'>&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/2FHzEkFNKQM&amp;amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;amp;hl=es&amp;amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/2FHzEkFNKQM&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=es&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://mariovinuela.com/"&gt;Página de Mario Viñuela&lt;/a&gt;

I wanted to tell you that I fell a bit in love with you. I wanted to tell a story that did not happen, but that made my heart jump. I just wanted to prove if I could still love, and I chose to fall for you right here, in this story.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You glanced at me with those sad eyes. Your shoulders exhibited the struggle of a defeated man. And I stood there in amazement because I could not comprehend how a man so beautiful could feel so lonely, so undeserving of love. I wanted to go over and ask you what happened. I wanted to let you tell me all of your thoughts and fears. I wanted to know who hurt you, why they would do such a thing to somebody like you. I wanted to hold you, care for you and inevitably fall for you. And then it suddenly hit me, that no such thing ever happens. That every man who has ever been spoiled and felt loved by these arms has never loved me back as I wanted. So I went over to the table and made up some story about how I always see you around and wanted to know your name. And you said: Joshua. I took a big gulp and my heart pounded. I forgot to say my name and left as fast as I could.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That was how I wanted to fall in love with you for a bit, not the way it really happened, because right now I have nothing but your name. I have nothing but my most favorite name, accompanied by the knowledge that you're a sensible guy. I didn't even have a chance to decide if I wanted to keep you as a friend, and it's making me write a story. But now I also realize that I don't really want a story. I just want to say your name: Joshua...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and let all of the feelings that come with that name just be.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-5693363464452898709?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/5693363464452898709/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=5693363464452898709&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5693363464452898709'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5693363464452898709'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/joshua.html' title='Joshua'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoCzh6-OMJI/AAAAAAAABno/bcgzy-2ILL0/s72-c/mansad.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3387215461302918634</id><published>2009-08-10T10:24:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-10T11:03:42.258-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Y Empecé</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://greatmoviesofmine.blogspot.com/2008/07/under-tuscan-sun.html"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5368350493794781842" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SoA2VNRuSpI/AAAAAAAABnY/7NBRpl55rsw/s400/dianundertts.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;And I began the day with a painted smile between my heart and my eyes.&lt;br /&gt;I couldn't help it.&lt;br /&gt;I caught it without effort,&lt;br /&gt;and now I don't want it to go.&lt;br /&gt;The smile that awaited me,&lt;br /&gt;the one that is only birthed from love.&lt;br /&gt;The one that becomes my reason to breath and be.&lt;br /&gt;And today it taught me to be humble in everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well!

Era inevitable. Me estaba previniendo de publicar todo lo que yo deseaba. Me he dado cuenta que este blog tiene vida propia y que por más que quiera que sea de una forma u otra, no puedo forzar su contenido. Así que aparte del cambio de imagen y nombre, también habrán cambios en los tipos de posts que tendrá y en la frecuencia con que publicaré. No todos los posts serán traducidos aunque la mayoría sí serán traducidos, y con la misma frecuencia que pudiera escribir algo solo en Inglés, también sucederá solo en Español. Esto se debe a que si algo me sale escribirlo solo en un idioma y no me emociona traducirlo -o no tiene mucho sentido que lo traduzca- entonces no lo haré.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero de todas formas, espero que les agrade tanto como a mi. Yo disfruto mucho de mi blog. Incluso, creo que lo disfruto más que mis lectores. No sé si debería de ser asi porque es mio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero en fin! Estén atentos. Hay mucho más que esperar de este espacio!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***************************************************&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had to change Frustrated Blogger. It was inevitable. It was preventing me from publishing everything I wanted. I have noticed that this blog has a life of its own and that even if I preferred it to be one way or the other, I cannot force its content. So, besides the change of name and image, there will also be changes in the kind of posts that will be published and the frequency with which I'll publish. Not all post will be translated, and as often as I can write something only in Spanish, it will also happen in English. This is due to the fact that if I feel like writing something solely in one language and I'm not exited about translating it -or it doesn't make much sense to translate it- then I won't.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But besides all I hope you enjoy it like I do. I enjoy my blog a lot. I think I perhaps enjoy it even more than my readers. I don't know if it should be like that because it's mine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But alas! Be aware. There's so much more to expect from this space!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-2456714109046601374?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/2456714109046601374/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=2456714109046601374&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2456714109046601374'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/2456714109046601374'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/08/it-was-inevitable.html' title='It Was Inevitable'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Snt032HBeNI/AAAAAAAABnQ/EgDzvht1ybE/s72-c/inevitableflight.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-6409625144180534067</id><published>2009-08-04T19:50:00.012-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T13:17:28.298-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiInicios'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiBeginnings'/><title type='text'>Changes!

I get hurt and get scared too. All this about being a strong woman is not really true. All of it comes solely from having endured much and thanks of course to my dad, who is even more stubborn than me. I'm definitely more reasonable, but perhaps it would do some good to show my true colors, that I do need help and that I do want to be understood and loved just as I am. Maybe I believe deep down that no one likes or loves a weak woman. But again, maybe I'm not a weak woman. Maybe I'm just Wonder Woman, who has a weak spot.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***************************************&lt;br /&gt;Después de todo soy humana. Existen cosas que me duelen y que me asustan también. Todo esta lucha de ser una mujer fuerte no es verdad. Todo tiene raíz solamente con el hecho de haber sobrevivido ante mucho, y gracias a mi padre claro, que es aun más testarudo que yo. Definitivamente soy más razonable, pero tal vez me haría bien mostrarme como realmente soy, que sí necesito ayuda y que deseo ser comprendida y amada tal como soy. Tal vez en el fondo creo que a nadie le agrada o ama a una mujer débil. Pero una vez más, tal vez no soy una mujer débil. Tal vez soy la Mujer Maravilla, con un lado que me hace llorar.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-1371045366968128776?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/1371045366968128776/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=1371045366968128776&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1371045366968128776'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1371045366968128776'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/07/despues-de-todo.html' title='Después De Todo...'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sm6tKgSVrPI/AAAAAAAABl0/feQJHIpQ-e4/s72-c/afterallimhuman.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-4013402229346133345</id><published>2009-07-24T15:27:00.015-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:06:51.039-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiTelevision'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Can't Wait!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SmoS9svmYZI/AAAAAAAABlk/S_ViHgZPU_E/s1600-h/yay-presents.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,51,0)"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;*Only In Spanish&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creo que desde que tengo memoria he tenido un amor platónico con las palabras. Tal vez comenzó con Don Quijote, o tal vez es que creo que fue el primer libro que leí por gusto. Pero siempre me han fascinado. Me gusta cómo las palabras tienen el poder de decir cosas, describirlas, contarlas, inventarlas. Sin las palabras no hubiese una manera de describir sentimientos y experiencias.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recuerdo cómo me gustaba ver al Fantasma Escritor en Discovery Kids cuando viví en mi país. Recuerdo cómo soñaba con ser uno de esos chiquillos y tener esas experiencias. Siempre me ha gustado descubrir cosas. Por eso me gustan las historias que se van abriendo como una flor. Pero mi momento preferido es siempre cuando las cosas estallan. Ese instante en que las cosas se descubren y le toca a los personajes reaccionar de una manera drástica. Aborrezco los personajes que se quedan callados, los que se guardan las cosas y los hipócritas. Creo que si algo se merece el lector es eso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Después llegó la época en la que me gustaban los poemas. Recuerdo que solía escribirles cartas de amor y poemas a mis amigas para que se las enviaran a los chicos que les gustaban. Y recuerdo como yo les preguntaba:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;¿Qué sientes por él? ¿Qué es lo que más te gusta de él?&lt;br /&gt;Y yo pretendía que yo era ella y escribía:&lt;br /&gt;“Tus ojos son como la miel que me endulza el día. Sin ti fuera amarga y muerta porque solo me siento viva al verte, cuando mi corazón late a mil. Anhelo besarte y temo que después de hacerlo no pueda parar y se convierta en todo el alimento que necesitaré para toda una vida.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A mis amigas les encantaban esos poemas y cartas. Llegaron momentos en que pensé que tan solo con escribir una tremenda declaración de amor, tal vez pudiera hacer que un chico se enamore perdidamente de mí. Pero nunca sucedió como yo esperaba. Yo siempre esperé que mi primer amor fuese como en las telenovelas. Pero cuando me ‘enamoré’ por primera vez en 5to grado, mi ‘amor’ me dió un ‘ultimátum’. El quería tocarme inapropiadamente, y como yo dije que no, pues yo me lo perdí. Entonces nunca fui su novia. Mi historia de amor. Yo esperando por un príncipe azul y siempre me llegaba un sapo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Les escribí varias cartas a mis padres. En ellas yo les explicaba como ellos no me querían. Siempre les daba razones y les hacía saber cómo me sentía. Yo nunca pude callarme las cosas. Las palabras siempre fueron mi liberación. Y a los 10 años yo sentía que tenía una cuerda atada a mi garganta. Para mi sorpresa esas cartas solo empeoraron las cosas. Yo nunca estuve consciente del por qué pasaba lo que pasaba en mi casa. Buscaba explicaciones y hacia preguntas. Nunca encontré respuestas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Nunca me ha gustado el no saber. Siempre quiero una explicación detallada cuando se trata de algo serio. Y entonces comencé a leer Juventud En éxtasis. Y tal vez lo leí demasiado joven porque pensé tanto en lo que leí que inmediatamente marqué mis prioridades y dije que nunca tendría relaciones íntimas antes de casarme.&lt;br /&gt;A los 13 me enamoré de un personaje de telenovela que se hacía llamar “Juan Diablo”. Me enamoré a tal punto que comencé a escribirle cartas y a imaginar que el día en que nos viéramos, el las leería y sería como si no hubiese pasado tiempo alguno entre nosotros. Esa fase acabó pronto después de la conclusión de la telenovela.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Entre los 14 y 15 años realmente comencé a madurar. Comencé a cuestionar el por qué de las cosas. Me volví Atea, leí a Homero, a Sócrates, a Thoreau. Me pasaba el tiempo pensando y escribiendo. Me aburría en las clases. Siempre me aburrían las clases a menos que fuera Inglés o Español. Tuve la fortuna de tener dos buenos maestros que no tan solo amaban las palabras sino que eran grandes pensadores y de vez en cuando retaban mi mente a pesar de los estudiantes que no comprendían o que nos les interesaba. Estas fueron las personas con las que yo y mis amigas conversábamos aun después de la escuela. La fascinación de la vida. La sabiduría que existía detrás de tantas cosas. Tantas verdades que se escondían y que la gente no veía. Y en busca y busca de la sabiduría me encontré con un compañero que se creía buen pensador. Me enamoré como una cucaracha que ha sido empapada de Baygón y después de dar vueltas y vueltas se tira a morir porque sabe su destino. Este amor me costó muchas lágrimas, horas sin sueño y muchas, muchas palabras. A este le escribí una declaración de amor de 7 páginas junto con los tantos poemas y cartas de los que solo vió al menos 3 de la colección. &lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Hablando de esto, mi mejor amiga que lee este blog ha ‘puesto en mal sitio’ el sobre donde se encuentra esta carta. Esperemos que algún día aparezcan.&lt;/span&gt; No sé por qué quisiera recuperar estos recuerdos. Tal vez porque son la única evidencia de que los tengo. En fin, seguí escribiendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Le escribí a mi maestro de Inglés filosofías de la vida y de la muerte, y también intentaba sin éxito describirme. A mi maestro de Español le escribí cuentos, poemas, monólogos y varias obras que ensayamos en el grupo de teatro. El nos hacia reflexionar en Márquez, Neruda, Rulfo, Sor Juana Inés, Benedetti y tantos otros.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recuerdo que tenía un maestro de historia cuya clase me parecía un chiste. A este le escribí una carta de 3 páginas describiendo lo mal maestro que era. Yo me quedé con una copia y le hice otra copia a mi Director. El maestro no supo contestarme. El director se rió muchísimo y pensó que tal vez fue cobardía de parte de mi maestro, ya que el al igual que yo piensa que si alguien te escribe, debes de responderle con la misma consideración y metodología.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Las palabras describieron mi vida y la descubrieron también. Creo que yo no sabía quién era hasta que alguien me enseñó que yo podía escribir, y que las palabras más que nada eran atrevidas. Se atreven a decir lo que nadie quiere pensar, ni sentir, ni decir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Olvidé a mi primer novio y las palabras cesaron. Le decía a mi maestra de Literatura que ya no podía escribir. Y ella delante de toda la clase profesó que yo solo tendría que reencontrarme con mi ex para que volvieran, que no era tan difícil. Esa vez fue la primera vez que comencé a dudar esto de escribir. Pensé: tal vez él se llevó todas mis palabras. Pero no, no fue así. Porque después de esto tuve una relación muy apasionada, y esas mismas palabras que salían de mí profesando ese amor tan profundo, fueron usadas para describir deseos momentáneos. Y esas palabras se convirtieron poco a poco en provocaciones, acciones y desilusiones. Esas no duraron mucho. Tal vez duraron más las horas que pasé desmenuzando los poemas de Yrene Santos. Y me agradó saber que yo no estaba sola, que para cada etapa de mi vida existe un escritor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Las palabras siempre me han acompañado en cada instante de mi vida. Y siempre vivo esperando el material perfecto para publicar. Pero viven cambiando. Ahora son de Dios, de filosofías, a veces de ficción y no sé de qué más. Las palabras. Aveces vienen en Inglés. Otras veces en Español. Y no tengo control sobre ellas. Aveces son muy tontas y las borro, y otras son demasiado buenas y nunca las publico. Este es el primer post que se parece al título de mi blog. Pero tal vez este sea el último en el que sea tan transparente. Tal vez nunca publicaré nada. Tal vez por eso no pude seguir los pasos de Karina Rieke. Tal vez porque las palabras son tan personales para mí que yo nunca podría hacerlas un negocio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una vez tuve una conversación con Juan Villar- mi ex director- acerca de mis poemas.

My brain reacts too quickly to put it all on paper.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://enovelspace.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/ayn_rand_bytalbot_3001.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 296px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 403px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://enovelspace.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/ayn_rand_bytalbot_3001.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayn_Rand"&gt;Ayn Rand's Bio&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For the past weeks I have been contemplating the idea of applying to an essay contest from the &lt;a href="http://www.aynrand.org/site/PageServer?pagename=index"&gt;Ayn Rand Institute&lt;/a&gt;. I was getting ready to submerge all of my thoughts, ideas, creativity and dedication toward it. I thought that it would be a delight to read her. I confess that I had not even heard of her until I heard about the essay contest. But I felt that all I needed to know to become motivated was that she was a woman and a Philosopher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I saw a full interview on &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/"&gt;YouTube&lt;/a&gt; by &lt;a href="http://www.netglimse.com/celebs/pages/phil_donahue/index.shtml"&gt;Phil Donahue&lt;/a&gt; in which Rand speaks about her ideas, views on life, politics, etc. I was apalled. Much of the content of her words I found challenging, which are always good. I beleive that anyone that has a reasonable argument-wether one beleives in it or not-deserves attention, benefit of doubt, or whatever you want to call it. I beleive that anyone reasonable has the right to demand others' minds to be put out of their elements, to view things in a different perspective, to reason in a distinctive manner. I was delighted to hear her speak, but very dissapointed. Rand demonstrated that her ideas are driven by self-exaltation, that she deserves to be listened, understood, beleived, but that no one deserves it from her, or no one is fit enough, smart enough, to make her listen. She battled every argument thrown at her with the most caution possible, but completely failed to be cautious on the very subject that she dislikes the most: action on feelings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;According to Rand -or rather what I perceived from the interview- every valuable contribution to the human being is purely led by reason. Feelings have no part. Nothing that failes to provide evidence is real. And smart people should be praised and should be helped because they are the only important ones. Her ideas -based on this interview. I don't claim to have any more knowledge on the subject- are nothing but an insult. It is the result of a woman that beleives that she is the most important person in the world, and whoever is attracted to that mindset will surely follow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I beleive that there is a very thin line to anything in life, in our minds, in our spirits. Hence, we must be very careful. I beleive that we should not be afraid to explore, understand, and live whichever scenario is put before our lives. But to beleive that we have arrived, that we have understood it all, that we are above and that other human beings have nothing else to offer us is just purely cynical. Isn't that a contradiction in itself? Because I beleive that if my truth and only my truth is real, then whoever I tell my truth to shouldn't be affected by me. They should accept their own truth and stand there 'till death. This is one of the many things that Atheism does to people (not all people). It creates this sense, this idea, this &lt;em&gt;beleif&lt;/em&gt; that the Atheist is a god and that he/she can do anything and everything and no one is above them. Why should we completely disregard other people's feelings, ideas, experiences? Not only nature shouts at us about the diversity of the world, but we ourselves practice it every day. How different aren't we? The world could not function on one brain that views life in &lt;em&gt;one&lt;/em&gt; way. We need this diversity to survive. We need this opposition. We even need this competion in business practices because we get to have our way, to have things perfectioned and accomodated to us, the consumers. We need to re-invent, re-think, re-live our lives. We need each other's experiences, we need each other's ideas, and we need each other's feelings. How can I say that the feeling or urge of having to take someone else's life does not exist? Just because I haven't felt it? What a fool would I be to completely disregard the interests and tendencies of the rest of the world!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The most comical thing about this interview is that Rand completely contradicted herself. People that are unsure about something will always take the defensive. People that feel threatened, like their beleif system is about to crumble, like they have a need to be beleived and understood will &lt;em&gt;always&lt;/em&gt; take the defensive, and this is exactly what she did. It does not bother me her thinking in the way she does, but to have the audacity to call absolute truth whatever her take on life is, I find disturbing. That is one of the many reasons why I critize many (not all) of the ways of the church. To beleive that the norm, the way people are used to doing things is the way that things should always be done is pure murder. It murders and denies our very own nature.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I beleive that we should be proud of who we are. I beleive that we should take what benefit us. I beleive that we should accept how amazing and incredible each of us are. But our motives, more than our thoughts or feelings, should be re-examined. Just like we have an enormous capacity to be right, we also have an enormous capacity to be wrong. Our own feelings and words should be put to the test. We never cease to live. There's always something new to see, to feel, to learn. I live to be the best me I can be, to benefit my mind and my well-being in every possible way. But who am I to aspire to destroy and disregard someone else's life to make them more like me? I thank God that there's no one else like me. As much as I love myself, there are times in which in all honesty I cannot stand myself. I couldn't bear the idea of having more people like me in the world. I don't know anyone who could.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is best to exercise the mind and exercise life in every possible way, to better oneself with every bit of information and experience that has been presented to us. And when there comes a time to help someone else better themselves, it should benefit them, not us. It should make them be the best themselves they can be and not a crappy, hopelesss, liveless and creativeless clone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-q7cje1I3VM&amp;amp;hl=en&amp;amp;fs=1&amp;amp;"&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-q7cje1I3VM&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interview Part &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FzGFytGBDN8&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;One&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bUwTHn-9hhU&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Two&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N4KbLbGYgk&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Three&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-q7cje1I3VM&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Four&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfqq4VKh1xM&amp;amp;feature=related"&gt;Five&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;A truly wise person prefers to be a student rather than a teacher.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yeah.

Quería ver algo bueno en la televisión. Me topé con un anuncio de &lt;a href="http://www.sho.com/site/index.html"&gt;Showtime&lt;/a&gt; acerca de cómo ellos presentarán cada Domingo la primera temporada de &lt;a href="http://www.sho.com/site/dexter/home.do"&gt;Dexter&lt;/a&gt;. Los que tienen una subscipción a Showtime pueden verla gratis On Demand. Entonces la ordeno On Demand pensando que no me va a gustar. Nunca me había llamado la atención y no tengo un interés particular en el Horror. Pero encontré el primer episodio tan provocador como muy pocas series y películas. No puede dejar de verla. No dormí. Pasé los próximos dias viendo la temporada 1 completa y la mitad de la temporada 2. La serie, si no la han visto es cómica, misteriosa, emocionante. En una opinión muy personal es brillante. No es muy extraña. No es muy real. Es exacta, y de alguna manera me volví adicta a ella. Solo espero que Showtime me deje ver el resto. Y ahí va el dicho: nunca juzgues a un libro por su portada. La foto de arriba es de la promoción que ví en el 2006. La foto de abajo es más como lo que es, y tal vez me hubiese animado más a verla. Todo ese misterio, acción, cosas inesperadas, secretos que se revelan poco a poco, como una flor que se abre; y cuando piensas que la flor está totalmente abierta, ahí es donde te das cuenta que es solo el principio de buscar lo que está escondido detrás de cada pétalo. Espero con ansias el final de la temporada 2, la temporada 3 completa y la 4 que empieza este otoño. Se nota que me he vuelto adicta, cierto? Yo lo noto. Pero pasará. Mientras tanto disfruto a Dexter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;*******************************************&lt;br /&gt;It all began one night when I was bored and tired. I wanted to watch something good on TV. So I bump into this &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sho.com/site/index.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Showtime&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt; commercial about how they're beginning to show &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.sho.com/site/dexter/home.do"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Dexter&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;'s season 1 every Sunday. Showtime subscribers can see it On Demand for free. So I order it On Demand thinking I won't like it. It never called my attention and I'm not particularly interested in horror. But I found this very first episode so provoking like very few shows and even movies do. I couldn't stop watching. I didn't sleep. I continued for the next few days to watch the entire season 1 and half of season 2. The series, if you haven't seen it is comical, mysterious, exiting. It is in my most personal opinion brilliant. It's a piece of work. It's not too odd. It's not too real. It's just right, and I got somewhat addicted to it. So, basically I'm just waiting for Showtime to let me see the rest. And there goes that saying: never judge a book by its cover. The picture above is the ad I saw back in 2006. The picture below is more like it really is, and I think that maybe it would've made me more inclined to see it then. All that mystery, action, things you never expected, secrets that are revealed little by little like a flower blooming; and just when you think that the flower might be totally exposed, that's really just the beginning of having to go through every layer. I can't wait to watch the end of season 2, the complete season 3, and the 4 that's coming out this fall. You can tell that I'm addicted, can't you? I can. But I know it'll pass. Meanwhile, I'm just enjoying me some Dexter.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.dasgamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/dexter.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 640px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 404px; CURSOR: pointer" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.dasgamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/07/dexter.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-3747642604789036177?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/3747642604789036177/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=3747642604789036177&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3747642604789036177'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/3747642604789036177'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/and-then-dexter-happened-to-me.html' title='And Then Dexter Happened To Me....'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_NQXza_RA1So/SH_BmU0xXPI/AAAAAAAAAK8/1fq8mqLJIf4/s72-c/dexter_1.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8041986900322261908</id><published>2009-06-05T14:21:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:03:02.912-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Momento</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Silh8kDs__I/AAAAAAAABjc/LFzJYSJyBeE/s1600-h/sun-over-the-ocean.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5343910125951057906" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Silh8kDs__I/AAAAAAAABjc/LFzJYSJyBeE/s400/sun-over-the-ocean.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;Sitting in my living room. The light is like the sun. It reflects on the furniture and creates an environment of safety. The highway is outside. This tower is so high and you can still hear the sound of every single wheeled creature past by. I feel comfortable. I feel like myself. I feel like a poet. The sound of the cars feel like the sound of the waves in the ocean. I close my eyes for a moment. I'm sitting in the middle of deserted waters. And that light in the ceiling of my living room feels like the sun in my face, and the fan blows me away like the wind, and the cars sing to me like the sea. And I feel like a word that swims around and stays in one place at the same time. I feel like a traveler, like a story that repeats itself and never grows tired, like a fruit that never denies being a fruit, or like a planet that remains alive without rotation. I'm like a spot that desires to be a star, or like a guitar in search for a good songwriter, or like a look that could speak a thousand tongues, or maybe like a painting that smiles and doesn't at the same time. I am and I'm not what I am. I could only feel what I feel, and know that this moment doesn't deserve the ending of everyday routine. I like silence. And I like playing with what I have; and tell stories about how hands fell in love with fingers, or like hair entangles because it wants to hug itself. I'm a leg that stretches just to see if it could be extended, and a mind that grew tired of trying to make itself understandable. I feel now. I live now. I am now. And let my own mouth be quiet about tomorrow. Let it not remind me of the noise of the world, of the many televisions and radios. And that when I arrive from the daily obligations, I won't be able to breath. I won't be able to breath. I won't be able to breath. I close my eyes again. I feel. I listen. My skin crawls. My voice is recovered. I don't know where it'll go from here, I just know that I like it. I want more. More feelings. More words. More freedom. More &lt;em&gt;life&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************************&lt;br /&gt;Sentada en mi sala. La luz es como el sol. Se refleja en los muebles y crea un ambiente de seguridad. La autopista está afuera. Esta torre es tan alta y aun se escucha el ruido de cada criatura en ruedas pasar. Me siento cómoda. Me siento yo. Me siento poetisa. El sonido de los carros se parecen a las olas del mar. Cierro los ojos por un momento. Estoy sentada en el medio de aguas desiertas. Y esa luz que está en el techo de mi sala refleja como el sol, y el abanico me sopla fuerte como el viento, y los carros me cantan como las olas. Y yo me siento como una palabra que nada por doquier y se queda quieta a la vez. Me siento como una viajera, como una historia que se repite y nunca se cansa, como una fruta que nunca cesa de ser fruta, o como un mundo que permace vivo sin girar. Soy como un lunar que quisiera ser estrella, o como una guitarra que necesita un buen cantautor, o como una mirada que habla mil idiomas, o una pintura que se rie y no lo hace a la vez. Soy y no soy lo que soy, y solo puedo sentir lo que siento, y saber que este momento no se merece el final de la rutina diaria. Me gusta el silencio, y me gusta jugar con lo que tengo; y contar historias acerca de cómo las manos se enamoraron de los dedos, o cómo el pelo se enmaraña porque quiere abrazarse. Soy una pierna que se extiende solo para ver si puede ser extendida, y una mente que se cansó de querer ser entendida. Ahora siento. Ahora vivo. Ahora soy. Y que no me hable mi propia voz sobre mañana. Que no me quiera obligar a recordar de los tantos televisores y radios. Que al llegar del diario atareo no podré respirar. No podré respirar. No podré respirar. Cierro los ojos nuevamente. Siento. Escucho. Y mi piel se eriza. Y mi voz se recupera. No sé a dónde voy, solo sé que me gusta. Y quiero más. Más sentimientos. Más palabras. Más libertad. Más &lt;em&gt;vida&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-8041986900322261908?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/8041986900322261908/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=8041986900322261908&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8041986900322261908'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8041986900322261908'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/momento.html' title='Momento'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Silh8kDs__I/AAAAAAAABjc/LFzJYSJyBeE/s72-c/sun-over-the-ocean.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7056320914533464642</id><published>2009-06-01T11:06:00.010-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:19:03.611-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><title type='text'>101 Cosas Sobre Mi</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Click&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/101-things-about-me.html"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;For English Version&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Soy muy apasionada con casi todo lo que hago.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Me encanta ver &lt;a href="http://abc.go.com/primetime/bachelorette/index?pn=index"&gt;The Bachelorette&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Yo critico lo melodramáticas que son la mayoría de las novelas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. No me gusta seguir a la multitud.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Yo como arroz todos los dias y plátanos casi todos los dias.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Nunca he vivido en mi país de adulta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. Amo a Nueva York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. Solo me he enamorado una vez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. Siempre tengo algo en mi mente acerca de lo que quiero hacer. Por ejemplo, hacen dos semanas decidí que quiero aprender Portugués y esta semana decidí que cuando vaya a tener mi primer bebé, el parto será en mi casa con una partera.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. Amo el arte.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11. Planeo comprarme una cámara costosa para tomar fotos hermosas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12. No me gustan las cosas super femeninas, especialmente las cosas extremadamente rosadas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13. Secretamente creo que soy Supermujer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14. Trabajo en mis defectos todo el tiempo, aun en cosas realmente pequeñas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15. Adoro observar y examinar a las personas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16. Yo solía contemplar el suicidio (hace 7 años)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17. De alguna manera soy una Cristiana rara, moderna y super apasionada por Dios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18. Todas las personas que creen en mi no son parientes mios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19. Adoro a los hombres, pero soy extremadamente conservadora.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20. Cuando fuí a visitar mi universidad favorita, los amigos que hice me enseñaron a hacer el sandwich de mantequilla de maní con banana. Pensé que era asqueroso. Ahora me encanta!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21. Solo tengo una amiga verdadera y vive en Orlando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22. Podría hacer que alguien se enamore de mi con palabras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;23. Podría herir a alguien gravamente con palabras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24. Soy extremadamente leal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25. Cuando no puedo dormir de noche me encuentro viendo programas de televisión que suelen tener una audiencia mucho mayor que yo. Mi hermano dice que me estoy poniendo vieja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26. Estoy considerando una carrera en Psicoterapia, en parte porque me encanta &lt;a href="http://www.hbo.com/intreatment/"&gt;In Treatment&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;27. Yo reservo partes de mi a diferentes personas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;28. El 95% de las cosas que digo son totalmente sinceras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;29. Yo solía creer en el Comunismo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;30. Veo más películas que cualquier persona que conozco. Aquí hay &lt;a href="http://greatmoviesofmine.blogspot.com/"&gt;prueba&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31. Tengo como 10 blogs privados acerca de mi relación con Dios, mi poesía personal, las loqueras que comparto con mi mejor amiga y muchas otras cosas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;32. Me encanta conocer gente interesante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;33. Hablo de los blogs de todo el mundo con mi amiga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;34. Aborrezco la hipocresía.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;34. Pospongo las cosas mucho o nunca las pospongo depende de las circumstancias de mi vida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;35. Muy a menudo encuentro que a las personas les molesta todo lo que me gusta o la diversidad de las cosas que sé.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;36. Tengo dos sobrinitas y una primita. Ellas me están enseñando el tipo de madre que algun dia seré.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;37. No creo que pudiera vivir en otro lugar que no sea Nueva York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;38. Aveces me llegan a gustar mucho personajes de películas, y aveces algunos bastante inusuales como &lt;a href="http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Michael-Cera--Juno--michael-cera-531566_1024_768.jpg"&gt;Paulie Bleeker&lt;/a&gt; en &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0SKf0K3bxg"&gt;Juno&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;39. Aveces me intimido mucho con personas que luego descubro que no son lo que pensé.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;40. He rompido con amigos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;41. Aveces confundo a las personas que quieren mi amistad con las personas que quieren que yo sea su terapeuta y aun llamarme su 'mejor amiga'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;42. Tengo la tendencia de creer en la gente más de lo que creen en ellos mismos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;43. Una vez tuve la oportunidad de ser presentada como una de las mejores nuevas escritoras Dominicanas en Nueva York y preferí no hacerlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;44. Me ofrecieron ser Sub-Directora de una nueva compañía de Teatro y lo abandoné.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;45. No acepto falta de respeto de nadie.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;46. Una vez ví a un hombre tratando de robarle a una chica en el tren y creí que podía atraparlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;47. Tengo miedo del amor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;48. En el aspecto social parezco ser super fuerte y segura. Por dentro soy la mujer más sensible que pudieras conocer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;49. No soy buena para los chistes, pero pudiera bromear todo el dia cuando estoy relajada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;50. Odio como el sexo se ha convertido en el tema del mundo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;51. Los únicos muñequitos que siempre me han gustado son Tom y Jerry, y después de adulta &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr1nhSSfjx0"&gt;Veggietales&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;52. Me encanta la masculinidad, pero odio el machismo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;53. Pudiera escribir un libro super extenso sobre todos los episodios de mi vida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;54. No soy quien solía ser.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;55. Conocí a &lt;a href="http://www.pulitzer.org/biography/2008-Fiction"&gt;Junot Diaz&lt;/a&gt; antes de &lt;a href="http://www.pulitzer.org/citation/2008-Fiction"&gt;Oscar Wao&lt;/a&gt; y lo hice re-escribir mi autógrafo porque pensé que era muy común y yo no soy común. Se rió muchísimo conmigo y escribió.: &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;Para mi hermana de Villa Consuelo. Sigue tirando piedras. Tu eres tremenda. Nunca cambies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;56. Yo mido la calidad de la vida de una persona por su sensibilidad hacia las cosas realmente importantes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;57. Me encantó &lt;a href="http://www.hbo.com/city/"&gt;Sex and the City&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;58. Cuando era adolescente, mi pasatiempo favorito era dar lata por teléfono.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;59. Solía no dormir en mi segundo año de la secundaria porque estaba en el teléfono toda la noche con mi primer novio. Mi mamá comenzó a desconectarme el teléfono todas las noches a las 10pm y mi segundo novio tuvo que sufrir las consecuencias.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;60. Adoro mis uñas largas pero no me gusta pintarmelas a menos que sea un french.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;61. Mi cabello cambia de color naturalmente de negro, a marrón, a rubio. No sé &lt;em&gt;qué &lt;/em&gt;soy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;62. Tengo una frustración de cantar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;63. Amo a los niños.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;64. Un dia escalaré rocas, me tiraré en paracaídas y en bungee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;65. Me encantan las ferias mecánicas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;66. Decidí leer la Biblia por mi cuenta y ha sido el libro más profundo, gracioso, inspiracional y aventuroso que jamás he leído.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;67. Me preocupan los motivos de las personas y los mios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;68. En cierto sentido soy una combinación de todos los blogs que me gusta leer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;69. Soy muy fácil para conversar pero muy difícil de comprender. Algunas personas han tratado de comprenderme y no han podido. Mi mejor amiga lo hace sin esfuerzo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;70. Mi color favorito es el amarillo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;71. Me encanta cuando un hombre dice mi nombre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;72. Estoy escribiendo un libro acerca de la contradicción que existe entre el crecimiento espiritual de un cristiano y su relación con la iglesia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;73. No me gusta la profanidad, pero acepto la sensualidad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;74. Solía tomar cerveza ocasionalmente y de repente me volví intolerante al alcohol. No me gusta que ni siquiera puedo tomar champaña.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;75. Quisiera aprender a hornear.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;76. Reprobé 2 años de secundaria por depresión y después me gradué con honores.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;77. Mi hermano más joven me guarda resentimiento por cosas que le hice cuando eramos pequeños. Me sentí tan culpable y tuve que aprender a olvidarlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;78. Amo las buenas conversaciones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;79. Amo las buenas risas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;80. La primera cosa que quiero decir cuando despierto es: Gracias Dios.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;81. Aveces deseo ser extremadamente ignorante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;82. Soy miope.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;83. Solía odiar el café, después trabajé en un restaurante y aprendí a hacer de todo tipo. Ahora me encanta el café.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;84. Muchas veces soñé con la existencia de una puerta secreta que me transporte a Santo Domingo y de regreso a Nueva York. Continuo soñando :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;85. Esta lista fue inspirada por &lt;a href="http://diamondkt.blogspot.com/2006/01/101-things-you-didnt-know-about-me.html"&gt;otra que leí&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;86. Todas las oportunidades que no tomé fueron porque sentí como si la gente me estuviese encerrando en una caja para hacerme &lt;em&gt;una&lt;/em&gt; cosa y me sentí como una hipócrita.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;87. He aprendido a apreciar el modelaje porque &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/09853702468318620625"&gt;mi mejor amiga&lt;/a&gt; es modelo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;88. Me encanta el show de Oprah y tengo una subscripción a la revista O.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;89. Yo leo &lt;a href="http://postsecret.blogspot.com/"&gt;PostSecret&lt;/a&gt; cada Domingo, pero nunca he enviado un secreto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;90. Planeo volver a la secundaria donde estudié y enseñar allí porque es la única escuela pública que es solo de Hispanos en Nueva York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;91. Me encanta saber todo lo bueno que me han dejado todas las personas que han pasado por mi vida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;92. Una &lt;a href="http://scottygraham.blogspot.com/2009/05/skywatch-friday-yangshuo-china-from.html"&gt;foto&lt;/a&gt; puede hacerme llorar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;93. Aveces pienso que estoy engañando a mi cultura al vivir un estilo de vida tan Americano.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;94. Me enorgullece el saber que yo apoyé a Obama aun cuando nadie que yo conocía sabía ni quién el era.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;95. Escribir estas 101 cosas fue increiblemente fácil.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;96. Tengo miedo de conducir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;97. Tengo un MySpace falso para chequear los perfiles y las fotos de otras personas. No me gusta MySpace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;98. Me gusta que ninguna persona que me haya conocido me haya olvidado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;99. No tengo idea de cómo traducir esto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;100. Amo el silencio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;101. Un dia conquistaré al mundo! (Si, claro)&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,102,51);font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Les exhorto a todos mis lectores que escriban 101 cosas sobre ellos!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-7056320914533464642?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/7056320914533464642/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=7056320914533464642&amp;isPopup=true' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7056320914533464642'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7056320914533464642'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/101-cosas-sobre-mi.html' title='101 Cosas Sobre Mi'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-7147425923642456806</id><published>2009-05-29T11:06:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:21:40.731-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>101 Things About Me</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Haga Click&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/06/101-cosas-sobre-mi.html"&gt;Aqui&lt;/a&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Para Versión en Español&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. I am extremely passionate about pretty much everything I do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. I love watching &lt;a href="http://abc.go.com/primetime/bachelorette/index?pn=index"&gt;The Bachelorette&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. I criticize how melodramatic most novelas are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. I don't like to follow the crowd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. I eat rice every day and plátanos every other day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. I've never lived in my country as an adult.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7. I &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt; New York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. I've only been in love once.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;9. I always have something on my mind about what I'd like to do. For example, two weeks ago I decided that I wanted to learn Portuguese and this week I've decided that when my time comes to have a baby, I'll have a home birth with a midwife.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10. I love art.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11. I'm planning on buying an expensive camera to take beautiful pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12. I don't like girly things, specially extremely pink things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13. Secretly, I think I'm superwoman.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;14. I work on my flaws all the time, even really small ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15. I love observing and figuring out people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;16. I used to be suicidal (7 years ago)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17. Somehow I am an odd super passionate about God and modern Christian.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;18. Everybody who believes in me is not a sibling of mine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;19. I am crazy about men, but extremely conservative.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;20. When I went to visit my favorite college, the friends I made showed me to make peanut butter and banana sandwich. I thought it was disgusting. Now I love it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;21. I only have one true friend and she lives in Orlando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22. I could make someone fall in love with me with words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;23. I could hurt someone terribly with words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;24. I am extremely loyal.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;25. When I can't sleep at night I find myself watching late night national television. You'd think I'd like Letterman or Leno, but I prefer Kimmel and lately Fallon. I don't know if that makes me old. My brother says it does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;26. I'm considering on becoming a Psychotherapist, partly because I &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt; &lt;a href="http://www.hbo.com/intreatment/"&gt;In Treatment&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;27. I reserve parts of me to different people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;28. I mean 95% of what I say.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;29. I used to believe in Communism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;30. I watch more movies than anyone I know. Here's &lt;a href="http://greatmoviesofmine.blogspot.com/"&gt;prove&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;31. I have like 10 private blogs about my relationship with God, my personal poetry, my rantings with my best friend and a lot of other stuff.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;32. I love to meet interesting people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;33. I talk about everybody's blogs with my friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;34. I hate hypocrisy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;34. I procrastinate a lot or not procrastinate at all, depending on my life's circumstances.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;35. Way too many times I find that people are bothered by all the different things I like and know about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;36. I have two nieces and one little cousin. They are showing me the kind of mother I'll be one day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;37. I don't believe I could live in another place other than New York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;38. Sometimes I would have crushes on movie characters, and really unexpected ones too, like &lt;a href="http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Michael-Cera--Juno--michael-cera-531566_1024_768.jpg"&gt;Paulie Bleeker&lt;/a&gt; in &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0SKf0K3bxg"&gt;Juno&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;39. Sometimes I am extremely intimidated by people and then find that they are nothing like I thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;40. I've broken up with friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;41. Sometimes I confuse people that want to befriend me with people that want me to be their personal therapist and call me their 'best friend'.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;42. I have a tendency to believe in people more than they believe in themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;43. Once I had a chance to be introduced as a notable Dominican writer in New York and turned it down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;44. I was offered to be Sub-Director of a new Theater Company and abandoned it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;45. I don't accept disrespect from anybody.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;46. Once I saw a guy on the train trying to rob a girl and felt like I could take him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;47. I'm scared of love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;48. In the social sense I appear to be a super strong confident independent woman. On the inside I'm the most sensible girl you could ever meet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;49. I'm not good at jokes but could joke around all day when I'm at ease.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;50. I hate how sex driven the world has become.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;51. The only cartoons I've ever liked are Tom and Jerry, and as an adult &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wr1nhSSfjx0"&gt;Veggietales&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;52. I &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;love&lt;/span&gt; manliness, but hate sexism.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;53. I could write an extremely long book about all the episodes of my life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;54. I'm not who I used to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;55. I met &lt;a href="http://www.pulitzer.org/biography/2008-Fiction"&gt;Junot Diaz&lt;/a&gt; before &lt;a href="http://www.pulitzer.org/citation/2008-Fiction"&gt;Oscar Wao&lt;/a&gt; and made him re-sign my autograph because I thought it was too common and I'm not common. He laughed a bunch with me and wrote: &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;To My Villa Consuelo sister. Keep throwing stones. Tu eres tremenda. Never change.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;56. I measure the quality of someone's life by how sensible they are about really important things.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;57. I loved &lt;a href="http://www.hbo.com/city/"&gt;Sex and the City&lt;/a&gt;. (What? Girl talk and New York? What's not to like!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;58. When I was a teen, my favorite hobby was prank calling.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;59. I used to not sleep in my sophomore year of High School because I was on the phone all night with my first boyfriend. My mom began disconnecting the phone every night at 10pm and my second boyfriend had to suffer the consequences.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;60. I love my long nails but hate to paint them unless it's a french.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;61. My hair naturally changes color from dark, to brown, to blonde. I don't know &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;what&lt;/span&gt; I am!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;62. I have a singing frustration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;63. I love children.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;64. One day I will go rock climbing, skydiving and bungee jumping.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;65. I love roller coasters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;66. I decided to read the Bible on my own and it has been the most deep, funny, inspiring and adventurous book I've ever read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;67. I'm concerned about other people's motives and my own.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;68. In a way, I am a combination of all the blogs I like to read.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;69. I am very easy to talk to and very hard to understand. Few people have actually tried to figure me out and never succeeded. My best friend effortlessly does.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;70. My favorite color is yellow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;71. I love it when a man says my name.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;72. I'm writing a book about the contradiction between Christian growth and church involvement.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;73. I don't like profanity, but am okay with sensuality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;74. I used to drink beer occasionally then all of a sudden became alcohol intolerant. I hate that I can't even drink champagne.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;75. I wish I could learn how to bake.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;76. I flunked two years of High School because of depression and then graduated with honors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;77. My younger brother resents me for things I did to him when we were children. I felt extremely guilty and had to learn to let it go.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;78. I love good conversations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;79. I love good laughs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;80. The first thing I want to say when I wake up is: Thank you God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;81. Sometimes I wish I was extremely ignorant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;82. I'm nearsighted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;83. I used to hate coffee, then worked in a restaurant and learned to make all different kinds. Now I love coffee.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;84. Many times I dreamt of the existence of a secret door that would take me to Santo Domingo and Back to New York in the blink on an eye. I keep dreaming :D&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;85. This list was inspired by &lt;a href="http://diamondkt.blogspot.com/2006/01/101-things-you-didnt-know-about-me.html"&gt;another one I read&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;86. All the chances I didn't take were because I felt like people were keeping me in a box to make me &lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;one&lt;/span&gt; thing and that felt hypocritical.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;87. I've learned to appreciate modeling because &lt;a href="http://www.blogger.com/profile/09853702468318620625"&gt;my best friend&lt;/a&gt; is a model.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;88. I love Oprah and have a subscription to O.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;89. I read &lt;a href="http://postsecret.blogspot.com/"&gt;PostSecret&lt;/a&gt; every Sunday but have never sent a secret.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;90. I plan on going back to my high school and teach there because it's the only all-Hispanic public high school in New York.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;91. I love how I know all the good things that people that passed through my life have left me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;92. A &lt;a href="http://scottygraham.blogspot.com/2009/05/skywatch-friday-yangshuo-china-from.html"&gt;picture&lt;/a&gt; can make me cry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;93. Sometimes I feel like I'm betraying my culture by living so American.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;94. I pride myself in that I supported Obama when no one I knew even knew who he was.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;95. Writing these 101 things was incredibly easy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;96. I'm scared of driving.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;97. I have a fake MySpace to check out people's profiles and pictures. I don't like MySpace.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;98. I like that no one who has met me has ever forgotten me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;99. I have no idea how I'm going to translate this list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;100. I love silence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;101. One day I'll take over the world! (Yeah, right!)&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(153,102,51);font-size:78%;" &gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;I encourage all my readers to write 101 things about them!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-7147425923642456806?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/7147425923642456806/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=7147425923642456806&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7147425923642456806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/7147425923642456806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/101-things-about-me.html' title='101 Things About Me'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8058425285311728079</id><published>2009-05-25T11:34:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:26:22.379-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiccion'/><title type='text'>Starbucks Parte III</title><content type='html'>El: Hola. (beso) Te tardaste.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Perdón. Tuve que esperar 20 minutos por el autobus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Nos vamos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si. Adónde vamos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Vamos a un bar de arte, de esos donde se declaman poemas, se presentan funciones de obras y bailes, etc.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Ok, conozco varios así. Es una función especial?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si, es una noche dedicada a las personas que perdieron a un ser querido en la guerra. Eso es mas tarde. Primero iremos a cenar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Oh, es por &lt;em&gt;memorial day.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Bromearemos con la gente hoy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Por qué no? Vamos. Es divertido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Hay cosas que solo son divertidas una vez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No querías salir hoy?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si, es que las cosas no serán iguales cada vez que salgamos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Por qué hoy te siento diferente?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No lo estoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si lo estás. Lo noto en tu cara. En tu estado de ánimo. Algo ha cambiado? Osea son solo dos semanas y se supone que estemos super emocionados como lo hemos estado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Pero yo estoy emocionado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No lo parece.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lo estoy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Ok. Te preocupa algo de tu trabajo, o tu familia?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. No me preocupa nada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Sabes que puedes decirme cualquier cosa, verdad?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Aun si resulta desagradable para mi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Entonces dime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Ahh. Me preocupa algo de nosotros.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Qué es?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Es que le hablé a un colega sobre ti y me dijo que estaba mal salir contigo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Qué motivos tuvo?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Que soy muy mayor para ti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Y tu crees eso?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: En parte. Creo que tal vez he vivido cosas que tu nunca has imaginado y que reacciono diferente a las cosas de la vida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Aun no me conoces lo sufiente para saber eso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lo sé. Es que voy con los hechos, con las cosas que sé de la gente, con lo que me ha sucedido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Aun es muy pronto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lo sé. Pero tengo el hábito de mirar más allá de lo que está en frente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Qué es lo que no quieres que suceda?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No quiero descubrir que no eres quien quiero que seas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Yo nunca podría ser exactamente lo que tu quieres. Yo nunca...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lo sé. Me refiero a que tal vez hay una parte de ti que no busca lo que yo busco.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Ahora me tienes confundida porque pensé que estaba claro lo que ambos queríamos, que basicamente queríamos la misma cosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. No creo que me hayas dicho exactamente lo que querías.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Te diré lo que busco. Busco vivir. Quiero amar, quiero estar en paz, quiero reir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Yo quiero una familia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Yo también.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Y no puedo andar por ahí perdiendo mi tiempo con una joven que solo quiere lo que está en frente en el momento.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Qué? Cómo puedes pensar eso de mi?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No te molestes. Está bien si eso no es lo que quieres. Es muy pronto para hablar de eso de todos modos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Wow. Lo que me molesta es que no comprendas que yo también he vivido. He experimentado. He hecho cosas que no sabes, y si quiero una familia. Pero para eso hay que estar muy seguro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Esa parte la comprendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Pero cómo llegaste aqui? Cómo es que tu imagen de mi haya cambiado tanto con un comentario barato, común, sin ningun valor?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Es mi imagen la que estoy cuestionando. Me pregunto si inconscientemente me estoy aprovechando de ti.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No lo creo. Tal vez &lt;em&gt;quieres&lt;/em&gt; aprovecharte de mi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Es que no sé si esto terminará bien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: A mi solo me puede importar el hoy y no el mañana. No sé quién serás para mi, pero me interesa saberlo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si, si. Claro que te interesa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Te siento muy lejos y distante, con muchas dudas que no pensé que tendrías. No quiero continuar teniendo esta conversación y no sé si deberiamos continuar viendonos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Perdóname. Fui un idiota. Tienes razón. No sé en donde va a parar esto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si tu eres tu y yo soy yo, esto quedará bien. No hay de qué preocuparse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Eres especial. Nunca pensé conocer a alguien como tu. Es que aveces eres muy precavida, y otras veces totalmente natural y espontánea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Yo protejo mis sentimientos. Además, cuando me gusta un hombre, busco detrás de todo a ver si ese hombre es el que será para toda la vida. Y aunque no conozco a ese hombre, siento que le debo respeto. Hay cosas sobre mi que solo él las puede conocer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Umm, osea que hay cosas que escondes de mi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. Hay cosas que reservo para el momento adecuado. Creo que empezamos bien y no estás seguro de quién soy y eso de alguna manera te asusta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No te asusta a ti?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. La vida es una caja de sorpresas. Lo único que me queda es descubrir qué tipo de sorpresa me dará.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Eso es lo que me molesta. Hablas como si haces esto todo el tiempo, como si todas tus relaciones las empiezas así. Al principio pensé que era diferente, pero...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. No soy así! Al principio solo quería saber exactamente por qué hacía lo que hacía. Pero ya después soy exactamente quien soy. Pero me tienes totalmente decepcionada. No sé cómo llegamos aqui.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Qué motivos tienes para decepcionarte de mi?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Que pensabas que yo me iba a enamorar como una chiquilla, que te iba a admirar como un dios, que me iba a dejar enseñar porque eres mayor que yo, que de alguna manera te ibas a aprovechar de mi porque ibas a estar en control de la relación. Tuvimos dos semanas maravillosas y después me sales con esto? Eres un inmaduro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por favor no te vallas. Quiero que me comprendas, y te voy a ser sincero. Al principio no le di mucha importancia. No estaba en un lugar donde tenía que proteger mis sentimientos. No sabía que las cosas se iban a dar así. Ahora me importas más de lo que pensé y no sé adonde me llevas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Creo que debemos parar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por favor no lo hagas. Aun hay cosas que no sabes de mi. Y puedo ser un idiota muchas veces, pero también soy sincero. Es que siento que no estás en el mismo lugar emocional que yo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Tal vez lo estoy, pero tengo que ser realista. Hemos pasado todo el tiempo juntos por 2 semanas, y eso puede alterar el progreso normal de una relación. Pero siguen siendo solo dos semanas. Cómo es que puedes esperar tanto de mi? Debes de estar acostumbrado a que las mujeres caigan a tus pies. Debes haber pensado que ciertas líneas funcionan todo el tiempo. Pero te olvidas que no soy como todo el mundo. Soy razonable, y después apasionada. Y realmente quiero irme. Creo que hay cosas que debes resolver por ti solo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Estás terminando la relación?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. Te estoy dando tiempo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Anel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Dime.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que puedes ser la indicada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Y yo creo que puedes ser el indicado para mi si te olvidas de tu ego y te permites sentir. Ah, y la próxima ves que nos veamos no quiero que actues como si no puedes ser tu mismo. Esto que ha pasado aqui no significa mucho. Lo que haces después de esto es lo que vale. Bésame.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(beso)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Adiós preciosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Solo una cosa más. Ya el hecho de que estemos aqui significa mucho para mi. Cree eso. Eso es todo lo que necesitas saber.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Te prometo que cuando nos veamos otra vez las cosas serán diferentes. Sé que fuí un idiota.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si nos das tiempo, a que crezcamos y maduremos como relación, te darás cuenta que te puedo amar como una loca y defenderte con mi vida si es necesario. Lo que empieza rápido termina rápido. (Beso)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Gracias por ser tan comprensiva. Nos vemos pronto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Adiós.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

rgb(102,102,102);font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;There are things that change, with time;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;things that turn into part of one's own nature,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;things that never perish, and remain, undefeated,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;as if they were not fighting at all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;But there are other things, much more complicated things,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;which are so hard to cope with,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and one wakes up each day, hoping that&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;something different will come our way,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and scare that thing away,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;that thing that when near seems as if it's eating&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;away our hearts, and devouring our patience,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;meekness, wisdom.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;What good is it to be wise when no one seems to notice,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;no one seems to react,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;no one seems to be affected by it,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;but us,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;the creators of something that after a while&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;begins to seem imaginative.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;So we make the choice of prolonging our suffering...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and our loneliness because God is our witness that&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;we are indeed right,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;that people are just blind- or make themselves blind- and they will&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;somehow wake up, and change, if we persevere.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;But then, we also have the choice&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;of shutting up, and cowardly abandon the struggle,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and our feelings begin to flee,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;because you see, there's nothing to keep us alive now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;This thing we're trying to prove,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;this thing that we are absolutely, positively sure about,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;is what makes us wake up every day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;So we die and suicide our thoughts and our feelings.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;But I'm thinking, God! there are so many who didn't see what they worked for&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;come to pass, so many were ignored,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;all kinds of people.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;Jesus, Martin Luther King, Joan Of Ark, etc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;And it wasn't until their death that they accomplished&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;their purpose.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;So I'm thinking I should fight,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;until my eyes become so wasted that I can't glaze at the light of day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;I only wish I was that strong.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;People think that I want to be recognized.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;I just want everyone to be ok.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;So many people want to prize me,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;they want to sell me, show me off.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;I have no interest whatsover.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;See, I just want you to be changed,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;to be affected by me,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;in the good way.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;That you become a greater encourager and teacher,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;much greater than I could ever be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;But if your plan is to put me on display,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;so that everyone can see how pretty I look,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and ignore the meaning of my words.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;Then, no thanks.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;I'd rather die writing things like this on my blog,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and see things that only I can see,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;expressing what only I can understand,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;and my own Author, who made me, who&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,0)"&gt;has been misunderstood as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;A la gente no le interesa el cambio, solo la polémica, y eso me ha matado poco a poco las ganas.

I am the kind of person who does not do certain things even if I should do them, just because either for the manner in which they are asked or the intention behind them. I demand respect. But that's because I always give it, and I provoke it even with the way I behave myself. So, anyone who is discourteous for whatever dilemma it is that they have to deal with in their personal life, I pretty much don't give a dime. That goes for employers and family members as well. I do sometimes question myself, but I realize that it is a way to apreciate myself regardless of anyone else's apreciation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;******************************************&lt;br /&gt;Lo sé, lo sé, y lo acepto. Soy el tipo de persona que prefiere no hacer ciertas cosas que debería hacer solo por la manera en la que se me pide o la intención detrás de la petición. Yo exijo el respeto, pero solo se debe a que siempre lo doy, y provoco darlo aun con la manera en la que me comporto. Así que cualquiera que es descortés debido a cualquier dilema con el que tenga que lidiar en su propia vida, realmente no me importa un comino. Eso va para los empleadores y aun hasta miembros familia. Algunas veces me cuestiono a mi misma, pero me doy cuenta de que solo es una manera de apreciarme a misma sin importar la apreciación de los demás.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-5265168859707663476?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/5265168859707663476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=5265168859707663476&amp;isPopup=true' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5265168859707663476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5265168859707663476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/discourtesy.html' title='Discourtesy'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/Sg8gweyfnUI/AAAAAAAABjE/gMdbjkwvpdo/s72-c/nannydiariesmrsx.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-6778375124297288081</id><published>2009-05-11T21:17:00.005-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:27:01.815-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiccion'/><title type='text'>Starbucks Parte II</title><content type='html'>El: Hey, hola. Ya te vas?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Bueno, si, no pense verte otra vez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Siento que no pude estar aqui el domingo pasado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Bien, pues si quieres, podemos caminar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si quiero. Adonde vas?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Al parque.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Caminas desde aquí?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si. Por qué? Te parece estraño?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si, por aqui pasan como 4 autobuses que te llevan hacia el mismo lugar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Me gusta tomarme mi tiempo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: (sonrie) Bien.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Cuentame algo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Como un chiste?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. Una anécdota. Un pensamiento. Un recuerdo. O si lo deseas, un secreto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Ok. Ummm. Recuerdo cuando mi madre me sacaba a pasear. Realmente no eran paseos. Eran mas como cosas que ella hacía mientras yo la acompañaba. Un dia fuimos a una mueblería y yo me puse un poco inquieto. Mis pantalones se quedaron atascados con los pies de una mesa y en el intento de soltarme no solamente rasgué mis pantalones, sino que también rompí la lámpara que estaba sobre la mesa, y caí al suelo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Umm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lloré tanto. No tan solo por el golpe sino por la expresión en la cara de mi madre, como de verguenza y de enojo a la vez. Y de repente llegó esta señora mucho mayor que mi madre que trabajaba allí, y me llevó a su oficina para usar el baño, lavar mi cara y poner un par de alfileres en mis pantalones. Su oficina tenía un aroma muy parecido al caramelo de piña que se hace en mi país. Ella me miró, y sonrió. Me dijo: Cuando seas grande, te caerás muchas veces, y sentirás miedo, y te dará verguenza y te mirarán como si les debieses algo. Pero siempre te volverás a levantar. Así que acostumbrate a caerte, hasta que ya no tengas necesidad de llorar cuando lo hagas. Te darás cuenta que lo único que importa es que seas quien eres, que tu estés feliz. La gente nunca estará contenta con lo que hagas, no importa lo que sea que hagas, así que más vale hacer exactamente lo que tu quieras de a primeras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Wow. Recuerdas todo eso?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. Fue algo parecido lo que me dijo. Me tomó años comprender a lo que se refería. Pero estoy convencido de que eso fue lo que quiso decir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Cuantos años tenias?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Tenía 10 años. Por qué me miras asi?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Nada. Es que tienes esta expresión cuando recuerdas cosas, como si estuvieses allí mismo. Hablas como si no fuese un recuerdo. Olvídalo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. Si te entiendo. Es que no me daba cuenta de que hacía eso. (Pausa) Entonces, seguiremos conversando sin conocernos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Nos estamos conociendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Sé a lo que te refieres. Pero cuánto importa eso realmente?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: En algun momento debe de importar. Yo no les doy mi nombre solo a personas que no me interesa conocer. Esto es peligroso. Qué sucede si nunca más te vuelvo a ver?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Qué sucede?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Te quedarías en mi cabeza sin ninguna razón para salir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No es el hecho de que no me veas una razón para salir de tu cabeza?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. Es exactamente lo contrario. Hasta que no te conozca realmente no podré sacarte de mi cabeza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Pero olvidaste que estaría aqui el domingo pasado&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No. Tuve una emergencia el domingo pasado. Me pasé toda la semana tratando de encontrarte otra vez.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: De veras?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Si. Hasta les pregunté a los empleados si te habían visto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: (Sonrío) Eso me agrada.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Me agrada hablar contigo. Quieres sentarte aquí?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. Entremos al Fort Tryon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Sentemonos aquí primero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: (extrañada) Ok. (pausa) Qué hacemos aquí?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Ok, perdón, me gusta observar a los niños jugar. Son mis minutos de comedia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Ok...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por ejemplo, mira a aquel niño. Corre, sube, juega, hace caer a los demás niños mientras su madre va tras de él suplicándole que se calme. En algún momento ese niño se golpeará con algo, y antes de recuperarse de su aparente intermitente llanto, verá otro lugar de interés y continuará jugando.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si es gracioso. Pero más que gracioso es interesante Es como lo que me contaste cuando tenias 10 años. El vuelve sin rasguño alguno a la carrera.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Es cierto. Y ves las niñas mas pequeñitas que apenas aprendieron a caminar? Se emocionan tanto por subir las escaleras, el tobogán y todo lo demás, pero terminan no querer hacerlo porque tienen miedo de caerse. Eso tambien es interesante.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si. Y entonces quién eres? El niño que nunca se detiene o las niñas que no se atreven?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que soy un poco de ambos.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Yo también lo soy. (Pausa) Qué harías si hoy fuese el último día que nos encontraramos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por qué? Eso es lo que quieres?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No. Solo tengo curiosidad. Que harías?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Bueno. Primero que todo sería totalmente honesto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: mhmm...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: (sonrie) No lo haré! Seguro que te veré después de hoy!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Quién decide eso?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Tu, creo. Me tienes un poco confundido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Lo sé.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Y por qué lo haces?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Me hace saber cosas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Pero no es muy bueno para mi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Lo sé. Lo siento. No me gusta ser asi. Solo soy cautelosa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Harías una excepción?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: (Pausa) Voy a hacer una excepcion de un tamaño gicantesco. Te diré lo que nunca le he dicho a nadie en mi vida y ni siquiera quiero pensar en lo que eso significaría. Pero debes entender que después de eso me darás tu número de teléfono. Yo me iré. Y esperaré varios dias hasta que recobre mi sentido común, hasta que parezca como si te hubiese olvidado completamente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por qué debe suceder así?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Es que tiendo a ser increíblemente razonable, pero de repente tengo emociones incontrolables que bloquean mi razón. No me siento como yo, por lo tanto no soy yo, y me asusto, y arruino todo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que te comprendo. Y bien. Dime lo que me vas a decir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: (Gran pausa) Ok.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pienso que eres increiblemente atractivo. Pudiera escribir volumenes completos de las cosas tan simples que tienes pero tan raras de encontrar. Tengo unas ganas incontrolables de besarte, pero no lo haré, porque tengo miedo de que esto se detenga en una simple atracción física y eso solo hace que el momento en que lo haga, si es que que lo hago, sea más especial. Tengo miedo de que no me correspondas, pero aun más de que lo hagas. Y ahora no quiero que me digas nada más que me des tu número e irme porque si me sigues mirando así el corazón se me va a salir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: (Sonrie) Toma. Llamame cuando quieras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Adiós.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Adiós.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Espera. No vas a decir nada?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No querías que lo hiciera.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No una reacción completa, pero algo...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Ok. Yo también.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: (Sonrío) Adiós.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

everything around me. Everything seems so beautiful, so much laughter and peace among so many wars and screaming. I sat down and I could feel how my every muscle coincides with the dance of life. Sometimes it feels like a movie, a play, a musical, a poem, and no matter how hard I try to describe it, to make the reader feel and perceive life the way I do, it is always unsuccessful. I'm hooked, on life. It's like when I'm falling in love with a man and unable to think straight because my heart feels as if it's about to come of my chest. And I am in love with life, and I want to live it, but I also want to write about it, talk about it. And then it clouds my judgment. And the trees know exactly when to move and the children know exactly when to laugh and that wise old man knows exactly what to say and when to say. I am a life junkie and if there's anything wrong with what I'm doing, it is that I refuse to have anything less than meaningful moments. When I look, I really want to look, and when I feel, I really want to feel, and when I laugh, I really want to laugh. I am hooked, on life, and whenever I feel like sighing I have this incredible feeling like suddenly I'm aware of everything around me, of everyone around me and it creates amazing opportunities to fall in love, create new friendships and learn big lessons.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-6683068849087451066?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/6683068849087451066/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=6683068849087451066&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6683068849087451066'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6683068849087451066'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/05/whenever-i-feel.html' title='Whenever I feel'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-4509221013032123979</id><published>2009-04-27T19:05:00.006-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:27:20.396-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiccion'/><title type='text'>Starbucks Parte I</title><content type='html'>El: Hola&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Hola&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Puedo compartir tu mesa?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si claro, por que no?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Largo silencio entre la leedera del extraño frente a mi, la mia, y los tantos sorbos de cafe entre varias paginas.)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Perdon; no pude evitar observar tu cara mientras lees. Disfrutas mucho tu libro, no?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Es un poco grande.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Son las siete novelas de Jane Austen. Ahora estoy leyendo Sense And Sensibility.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Umm, perdoname si te molesto. Puedes seguir leyendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No me molestas. Me gustan las personas observadoras. Tienen mucho que aprender y mucho que enseñar. A cual de las dos cosas te dedicas?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: (sonrie) A ninguna. Yo solo vivo. Siento lo que siento. Pienso lo que pienso.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Y que piensas ahora?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Ahora no pienso, sino siento.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Y que sientes?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Que me gusta mas tu conversacion que mi libro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Umm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Y tu?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Que me gusta mas el libro que la conversacion, pero que por ahora prefiero tener esta conversacion y continuar leyendo luego.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No te sientes extraña conversando con un extraño?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No, osea, no contigo. Cuando entraste aqui no me viste hasta que no encontraste asiento en otra parte. Y despues de sentarte en mi mesa no me miraste hasta que te percataste de mis tantas expresiones faciales. Me hablaste por pura curiosidad, sin ninguna otra intencion que te provocara inseguridad. Cuando me miraste, me miraste a los ojos, no te fijaste en mi mirada ni buscaste una respuesta detras de mis ojos. Creiste lo que te dije y no lo dudaste. Y si puedes ser tu mismo y no sentirte extraño conversando con una extraña, entonces por que no podria hacer lo mismo?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: (Sonrie) Podemos tener una conversacion directa?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si, me encantaria.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Por que vienes aqui?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: A alejarme de mi vida cotidiana. Usualmente es bastante estresante. Y tu por que vienes?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: No se, empeze a hacerlo porque todo el mundo lo hacia y despues me acostumbre. Me gusta, el cafe, el libro, el ambiente. Creo que esa es una de esas preguntas a las que no se puede contestar realmente, de esas que por mas que tu mismo te preguntes, no puedes encontrar una respuesta en tu cabeza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Creo que muchas veces no estamos totalmente al tanto de lo que la vida nos hace. Hasta hace poco me dado cuenta de la impresion tan fuerte que tienen los olores, los sabores, los colores, las luces, lo que escuchas, lo que tocas. Todas estas cosas parecen tener un poder mas grande que el que tiene la mente. No se ni como pude llegar a la conclusion de lo que me provocaba el olor y el sabor de la leche caliente.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Que te provocaba?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Me provoca un sentimiento de proteccion, seguridad, libertad. Hace poco descubri que me recuerda a mi niñez. Mi mama preparaba leche en polvo a menudo y recuerdo con mucha lucidez hasta la textura de la leche, el sabor de la nata.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que a mi tambien me sucede lo mismo. Cada vez que llueve recuerdo a mi pais. Nunca pude explicar esa felicidad que sentia. Y era ese olor a aire fresco, a naturaleza.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Piensas que tal vez, de alguna manera cada uno de nosotros intentamos buscar la felicidad queriendo repetir esos momentos?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que si. Creo que secretamente queremos volver a la epoca en la que no sabiamos de la tanta maldad e injustiocia que existe en el mundo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No lo creo. Porque yo despues de haber experimentado, vivido, llorado y sufrido, solo quiero estar en paz y reirme todas las veces que pueda.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Y no era eso lo que sentiamos cuando eramos niños?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Pero no sabiamos lo que eramos. No sabiamos lo bueno que era. Y ahora que se lo bueno que es, es todo lo que quiero.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Piensas en una familia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Crear para ellos lo que no tuviste.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Si, pero sabiendo que algun dia tendran que enfrentar el mundo. Sufriran, sentiran rabia. Pero si recuerdan lo que yo les di triunfaran.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Espero que sea asi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Sabes? No existen muchas personas con las que uno puede hablar asi.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Lo crees?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Claro, con cuantas personas te cruzas que puedas hablar de la vida de una manera razonable pero profunda y honesta, llena de sentimientos y pensamientos que simplemete son lo que son? No estamos hablando de opiniones y tratando de ser inteligentes, intelectuales, exhibiendo lo que uno sabe o pretendiendo saber lo que uno no sabe. La mayoria de la gente prefiere pretender en ves de ser. Y a mi me gusta ser. Me gusta ser exactamente como soy, decir exactamente lo que pienso y siento. No sabes lo frustrante que es ser uno mismo enfrente de uno que pretende y por ende ha disminuido su nivel de percepcion a 0.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que es importante tener personas que no perciben las cosas. Creo que son exactamente la razon por la que existimos lo que si percibimos las cosas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: No me gusta pretender y me siento obligada a pretender.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Y por eso se siente tan bien no pretender con alguien que puede ser viendote a ti siendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Creo que si no fuera por gente como tu ya estuviera loca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Que es lo que mas aprecias de una amistad?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: La capacidad de ser leal y honesto. La habilidad de estar ahi indefinidamente. Y tu que crees?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que quiero venir aqui cada domingo y tener una conversacion contigo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo: Creo que he dicho mucho y tienes mas que decir.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El: Creo que hoy era tu turno de hablar y el mio de escuchar. Creo que la proxima sera mas complicada y extensa.

Decia que preferia que las cosas fuesen impredecibles y espontaneas. Unos dias antes de escuchar esto tambien vi una entrevista que le hicieron al director de &lt;a href="http://psiloveyoumovie.warnerbros.com/"&gt;P.S. I Love You&lt;/a&gt;. El decia que le gustaba el disparate de la vida, que un momento se siente de una manera y otro de otra. Y al ver esto pense en como somos conformistas. Como puede ser que nos va a gustar el 'disparate' de la vida? No quiero decir que debemos calcular y planear cada cosa. Pero mucho menos no hacer ningun plan. El planear es parte de vivir la vida al maximo y cada quien debe planear su vida de la manera mas positiva y feliz posible. Nunca se puede vivir solo por vivir. Eso de despertar y no saber el plan del dia es como vivir como muerto. Cada persona que desea vivir conforme debe levantarse con ganas de hacer algo nuevo y de dar un nuevo paso hacia la plenitud. Si soy sincera, eso de vivir por vivir es muy deprimente. No solo porque carece de sentido, sentimientos, organizacion; sino que tambien me mata la creatividad y la alegria. Aun si la meta de un dia es disfrutar de una cama caliente y ver peliculas, tal vez ese es el plan que se necesita para ese dia en particular. Asi como tambien el plan de hacer a alguien sonreir, o de enfrentar un nuevo reto, tomar una nueva clase, cambiar de rumbo. Son tantas cosas que se pueden hacer que no comprendo como alguien podria dejar que se lo lleven las olas a doquier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Prefiero planear cosas lindas, vivir cosas lindas y ser linda :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***************************************&lt;br /&gt;I heard on a television show how someone was speaking about liking the ambiguity of life. He said that he preferred things being unpredictable and spontaneous. A few days before hearing this, I saw an interview with the director of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://psiloveyoumovie.warnerbros.com/"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;P.S. I Love You&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;. He said he liked the messiness of life, that one moment he feels in a way, and the next in another way. All the while I was thinking of how we are conformists. How can we like the 'mess' of life? I'm not saying that we should plan every single thing. But it's even worse not planning at all. Planning is part of living life to the fullest and each person should plan their lives in the most positive and happy manner. We could never live just for living. Waking up and not planning anything for the day is like living dead. Each person that desires to live content should wake up with a will to do something new or give a new step into fullness. To be honest, that of living just to live is very depressing. Not only because it lacks sense, feelings, organization; but also because it kills my creativity and joy. Even if the goal for one day is to enjoy a warm bed and watch movies, perhaps that's the plan that's needed for that day. Just like it could be to make someone smile, or face a new challenge, take a new class, change directions. So many things could be done that I don't understand how someone could just let the waves take them wherever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I prefer planning beautiful things, living beautiful things, and being beautiful :)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-180262152485260886?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/180262152485260886/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=180262152485260886&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/180262152485260886'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/180262152485260886'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/ambiguity-or-awareness.html' title='Ambiguity Or Awareness'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SXqBVijfQnI/AAAAAAAABiY/FzwIAmkXF_8/s72-c/lifeambiu.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8697736248160759206</id><published>2009-01-17T21:29:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T14:37:56.816-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Eso De Vivir...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SXKPqW--6eI/AAAAAAAABhg/3wpWXI1Ypp8/s1600-h/inspire.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5292450470000781794" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SXKPqW--6eI/AAAAAAAABhg/3wpWXI1Ypp8/s400/inspire.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;me inspiras.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Well, the deal is that sometimes we live stuck in in our own idea of what life is, or we're simply dragged like waves by circumstances. But yes, the truth is that it doesn't matter how much we know or how much we've lived, there's always something deeper than what we're experiencing right this minute. And yes, life is so much more. Life is diverse just like its Creator, and it inspires us in an unimaginable way; that creativity awakens and its as if we're opening our eyes once again, as if we've arrived to a totally different planet. Life is beautiful, complicated, simple, and so diverse. I feel like at home with all of this diversity, and I love being able to capture it all, and of course keep what I want and get rid of what's not worth it. Life is more than what you think, more than what you see, more than what you feel. And well, that's the way I begin this year, with much hope, much faith, much courage, much happiness, much will to live, and anxious for the beautiful things that await me. Living it is! And it's not that I haven't lived, but everytime it becomes brighter it's as if I was beginning to live again. I love you God! Thank you for life!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***************************************&lt;br /&gt;Pues es que aveces vivimos enfrascados en nuestra propia idea de la vida, o simplemente arrastrados como olas por las circumstancias que nos han tocado vivir. Pero si, la verdad es que no importa lo mucho que sepamos o lo mucho que vivamos, siempre existe algo mas alla de aquello que estamos observando en este mismo momento. Y si, la vida es mucho mas. La vida es diversa tal como su Creador, y nos inspira de una manera sinigual; esa creatividad innata se nos despierta y es como si abriesemos los ojos una vez mas, como si acabasemos de llegar a un planeta totalmente diferente. La vida es hermosa, complicada, simple y tan tan diversa. Es que me siento como en casa con toda esta diversidad, y me gusta poder acapararlo todo, y claro, retener lo que quiero y desechar lo que no sirve. La vida es mas de lo que piensas, mas de lo que ves, mas de lo que sientes. Y bien, de esta manera comienzo el agno, con mucha esperanza, mucha fe, mucho valor, mucha felicidad, muchas ganas de vivir, y ansiosa por todas las cosas bellas que me esperan. A vivir se ha dicho! Y no es que no haya vivido, sino que cada vez que se me hace mas claro es como si empezara otra vez a vivir. Te adoro, Dios! Gracias por la vida!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-8697736248160759206?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/8697736248160759206/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=8697736248160759206&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8697736248160759206'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/8697736248160759206'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/eso-de-vivir.html' title='Eso De Vivir...'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SXKPqW--6eI/AAAAAAAABhg/3wpWXI1Ypp8/s72-c/inspire.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-3198752958871413408</id><published>2009-01-14T07:43:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T13:57:24.623-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiPersonal'/><title type='text'>On My Way...</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SW3QKrHRCLI/AAAAAAAABhM/Cj_Ck-fFlo4/s1600-h/onmyway.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

enfermedad de la cual nunca habia escuchado y la que me ha caido un tanto mal por varias razones. Pues no tenia mas que un solo sintoma el cual no me afectaba en mi funcionamiento diario; pero las medicinas me han provocado los sintomas de la enfermedad y extranamente me siento mas enferma. Pero bien, me hizo pensar que lo que uno no sabe lo puede matar.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Amigos, pronto los visitare, y si algo les deseo de todo corazon en este 2009 es que cuiden de su salud, visiten al medico y nunca piensen que seran jovenes y saludables para siempre. Que Dios los bendiga.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;***************************************&lt;br /&gt;Well, just before the arrival of the new year I was diagnosed with a desease called &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.endocrineweb.com/hypo1.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Hypothyroidism&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;; a condition that I had never heard before and that has affected me negatively for various reasons. Well, I had only one symptom that did not affect me on my daily functions; but the medicines have caused the symptoms of the desease and I feel more ill. Well, that made me think that what we don't know could kill us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friends, I will visit you soon, and if there's something I wish you with all my heart in this 2009 is that you take care of your health, visit the doctor and never think you'll be young and healthy forever. May God bless you.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-4848795757488379467?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/4848795757488379467/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=4848795757488379467&amp;isPopup=true' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4848795757488379467'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/4848795757488379467'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2009/01/what-we-dont-know.html' title='What We Don&apos;t Know.....'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SWP4vh8gIOI/AAAAAAAABhE/V7ny8wb3AFk/s72-c/hypoholidyas.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-8247088675802932491</id><published>2008-12-30T21:55:00.007-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T17:45:43.034-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><title type='text'>El Tiempo De Benjamin Button Y El Mio Unidos</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SVrcPyBOHzI/AAAAAAAABgM/XCpM0hs9ltc/s1600-h/ccbb.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 267px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5285779276355739442" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SVrcPyBOHzI/AAAAAAAABgM/XCpM0hs9ltc/s400/ccbb.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;I was watching &lt;a href="http://greatmoviesofmine.blogspot.com/2008/12/curious-case-of-benjamin-button.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff6666;"&gt;The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt;and for a while I felt as if time had stopped. I watched and could only think and feel all the limitations that time puts on us but also all the limitiations we put on ourselves to then blame time. It is something that we cannot escape from. Nothing remains the same. Everything changes and even if we wanted time to go backwards, it would still have to change. We can never remain, and sometimes we feel as if we're losing with it's passing. But there's no loss. Time keeps running and it finds itself back in the same place, but only by itself, because we have moved on. It is time, and not us, who pities itself in watching us born and live, and grow and die. Because time cannot live, and it is us who live. It is us who have the chance to enjoy every breath and every second that there's air to breath and every minute that there's an eye to look at everything that has been given us by God. I could not be or feel merrier to live, merrier to breath, and merrier to look. I could not feel merrier to grow old, because I have this thing, this experience, these memories, these feelings that I can go back and live, and remember, and feel, because it is I and not time that has the power to do it. I hold it in my hands and decide what to do with it and what not to do...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************************&lt;br /&gt;Estaba viendo &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://greatmoviesofmine.blogspot.com/2008/12/curious-case-of-benjamin-button.html"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;El Caso Curioso De Benjamin Button&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt; y por un momento senti como si el tiempo se hubiese detenido. Lo vi, y solo podia pensar y sentir todas las limitaciones que el tiempo nos pone, y tambien las limitaciones que nos ponemos a nosotros mismos para luego culpar al tiempo. Es algo de lo que no podemos escapar. Nada permanece igual. Todo cambia y aun si quisieramos retornar, las cosas aun deben cambiar. Nunca logramos permanecer, y aveces sentimos que perdemos con su paso. Pero no existe perdida. El tiempo sigue corriendo y se encuentra en el mismo lugar, pero por si solo, porque hemos continuado. Es el tiempo y no nosotros quien se averguenza de si mismo en vernos nacer y vivir, crecer y morir. Porque el tiempo no puede vivir; nosotros vivimos. Somos nosotros quienes tenemos la oportunidad de disfrutar cada suspiro, y cada segundo que existe el aire para respirar, y cada minuto que existen ojos para mirar todas las cosas que nos han sido dadas por Dios. No podria ser y sentirme mas feliz por vivir, por respirar, por mirar. No podria sentirme mas feliz por envejecer, porque tengo esta cosa, esta experiencia, estos recuerdos, estos sentimientos a los que puedo volver y vivirlos, y recordar, y sentir. Porque soy yo y no el tiempo quien tiene el poder para hacerlo. Lo tomo en mis manos y decido que hacer con el y que no hacer...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SVrcdLP3JOI/AAAAAAAABgU/ZXd2oIuD0pY/s1600-h/likegettingold.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center;

The reason was because my cousin wanted my brother to take his picture and he repeatedly expressed it. My brother got upset and said: take it yourself! And then my cousin got upset and that almost cost us not going out at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought that this argument was really stupid but last night I had to correct myself because I wanted my cousin to take my picture and he wouldn't take it right away. I got sooo upset and left him. Now I understand why they were both upset and I apologize for making fun of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;*************************************&lt;br /&gt;Titule esta foto 'El Quille' por un dia que salimos y mi hermano y mi primo se quillaron. La razon fue porque mi primo queria que mi hermano le tirara una foto y se lo repitio varias veces. Mi hermano se quillo y le dijo: tiratela tu mismo! Y entonces mi primo se quillo y ese quille casi nos cuesta la salida.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pense que esa discusion fue una estupidez pero anoche tuve que corregirme a mi misma porque queria que mi primo me sacara una foto y el no estaba por hacerlo en ese momento. Me quille tanto que me fui y ni le dije mas na' hasta mas tarde.

I admire the beauty of wisdom. &lt;span style="color:#993300;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;Admiro la belleza de la sabiduria&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt; From &lt;a href="http://postsecretfrance.blogspot.com/2004/04/postsecretfrance-english-translations.html"&gt;PostSecret France&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Several years ago I interviewed a woman who holds 4 PhD's. She has one in Political Science, one in Psychology, one in Law and one in Sociology. I learned a lot of things from her, many advices that granted me a lot of knowledge that I perhaps knew but that weren't solidified. Often, we may have ideas, realizations and things that make us reflect and change a bit the course of our lives. But if we haven't really lived that, we haven't dared, or we haven't met someone that has gone through that, then those reflections become something far and illusive. I asked this woman two questions that have stuck in my mind and I think will never leave me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you regret anything?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I regret having payed more attention to my friends instead of older people. Because they may not seem smart or accurate, but they have something that you won't have: experience. And that is priceless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What was the hardest thing you had to do?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The hardest thing I had to do was fail once and again in front of people. I failed because I wasn't prepared to climb that mountain; and I knew I would fail and the people knew it too. But I had to get up once again. I &lt;em&gt;had&lt;/em&gt; to do it. I couldn't stop trying. I had to fall in front of them and get up again. And after so many failures, I conquered.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I beleive that experience speaks louder than anything learned, thought or felt. For example, I think love only grows when there's a history, when good and bad times have passed, because that is when the true character of the human being is shown.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I admire the people with experience in life. And I beleive there's wisdom in the smallest things. But the wise are not born, but made. A well lived life is one of the best guides to learn how to live. But I should also say that each one of us has experience and that as young and innocent as someone may look, they always have something to contribute. I think that my 4 year old niece has taught me more than my older sister has. We should also be aware of life's lessons. I think that God has made me more sensible to what's in front of me. And noticing things is worth more than a thousand untamable emotions that lack any sense.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;******************************************&lt;br /&gt;Hace unos anos le hice una entrevista a una mujer que tiene 4 doctorados; uno en Ciencias Politicas, otro en Psicologia, otro en Leyes y otro en Sociologia. Aprendi muchas cosas de ella, muchos consejos que me dieron mucha sabiduria que tal vez sabia pero que aun no estaban consolidadas. Muchas veces podemos tener ideas, pensamientos y cosas que nos hacen refleccionar y cambiar poco a poco el curso de nuestras vidas. Pero si realmente no hemos vivido eso, no nos hemos atrevido, o no hemos conocido a alguien que haya pasado por eso, entonces esas reflecciones se vuelven algo lejano y fantasioso. A esta mujer le hice dos preguntas que se me han quedado en la mente y creo que jamas me abandonaran, y aqui estan:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De que cosa te arrepientes mas que nada?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;De haberle prestado menos atencion a las personas mayores que yo y mas atencion a mis amigos, porque por mas tonta o equivocada que parezca una persona, siempre tendra algo que tu no tendras: experiencia. Y eso, eso no tiene precio.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Que fue lo mas duro que tuviste que soportar?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lo mas duro fue tener que fallar una y otra vez delante de la gente. Falle porque no estaba preparada para derribar esas barreras, y sabia que iba a fallar, y la gente tambien lo sabia. Pero tenia que levantarme una vez mas, &lt;em&gt;tenia&lt;/em&gt; que hacerlo, no podia parar de tratar. Tenia que caer delante de ellos y volverme a levantar, hasta que despues de tantos fracasos, venci.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Creo que la experiencia habla mas que cualquier cosa que se pueda aprender, pensar o sentir. Por ejemplo, pienso que el amor solo crece cuando existe esa historia, esa experiencia de haber pasado por buenas y por malas situaciones porque ahi es que se demuestra el verdadero caracter del ser humano.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Admiro a la gente que tiene experiencia en las cosas de la vida y pienso que existe sabiduria en las mas pequenas de las cosas. Pero el sabio no es, sino que se hace. Una vida bien vivida es una de las mejores guias para aprender a vivir. Pero siempre hay que reconocer que cada uno de nosotros tambien tenemos experiencia y que por mas joven o 'inexperimentado' que parezca alguien siempre tiene algo que aportar. Creo que mi sobrina de 4 anos me ha ensenado mas cosas que lo que he aprendido de mi hermana mayor. Tambien hay que estar atento a las lecciones de la vida. Creo que Dios me ha hecho mas susceptible a lo que esta frente a mi y el darse cuenta de las cosas vale mas que miles de emociones descontroladas y carentes de sentido.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-6715805707719742075?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/6715805707719742075/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=6715805707719742075&amp;isPopup=true' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6715805707719742075'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/6715805707719742075'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/12/la-belleza-de-la-sabiduria.html' title='La Belleza De La Sabiduria'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/STs9xHbAFvI/AAAAAAAABek/OLb0AiBWRJQ/s72-c/iadmirethebeautyofwisdom.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-5603542458087861926</id><published>2008-12-03T08:32:00.004-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T13:48:44.788-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiVida'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiLife'/><title type='text'>Talking Nutin'</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/STZ74u--qJI/AAAAAAAABec/-FRje9L-7fc/s1600-h/gossip.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 302px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275540228126189714" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/STZ74u--qJI/AAAAAAAABec/-FRje9L-7fc/s400/gossip.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Estaba conversando con un amigo, o mejor dicho &lt;em&gt;discutiendo&lt;/em&gt; sobre cosas que no puedo plasmar aqui pero que me puso a pensar. Es necesario recordar las cosas negativas de una persona cuando las positivas tienen mucho peso? Creo que uno no se debe dejar cegar o emocionar por eventos negativos y descartar de paso todos los positivos. A mi me parece que no le hace bien a nadie recordar las cosas que no estan bien de una persona que sabes que no va a cambiar. Gracias a Dios que hoy en dia puedo ver mi vida como una gran leccion y no una excusa para quejarme de lo que fulanito y fulanita me hicieron. Todos tenemos defectos, pero cuantos de nosotros pasamos mucho tiempo pensando en esos defectos? Creo que debemos cuestionar cada una de nuestras criticas. No es bueno andar por ahi echandole sal a la herida y pensar que porque una persona nos haya hecho un mal, ya todo el bien que puede tener esa persona no existe. Aveces me frustra mucho la manera de hablar de la gente. Es como si su boca fuese un miembro incontrolable y no saben ni les importa lo que estan diciendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Hay que darse un bano de tumba. Y desde la tierra cerrada mirar hacia arriba el orgullo. Entonces se aprende a medir, se aprende hablar, se aprende a ser." &lt;em&gt;Pablo Neruda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Quien sea que me haya hecho un bien. Me hizo un bien y punto.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;**********************************&lt;br /&gt;I was talking to a friend, or better said, &lt;em&gt;arguing &lt;/em&gt;about things that I can't write here but that got me thinking. Is it necessary to remember the negative things about somebody when the positive ones are more valuable? I think that we should not be blinded or get over-irritated by negative events and disregard the positve ones. It seems to me that is not good for anybody to remember the things that are not good about someone that you know won't change. Thank God that today I can look at my life as a big lesson and not an excuse to complain about what so and so did to me. We all have imperpections. But how many of us spend much time thinking about them? I think that we should question each one of our criticisms. It's not good to go around throwing salt on the wound and think that if someone has hurt us then all the good that that person may have does not exist. Sometimes I'm frustrated by the way people talk. It's as if their mouth was an untamable member and they don't know or care about what they're saying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"From time to time and far away, a bath of tomb must be had. And from the sealed earth look at pride upwards. Then it is learnt to measure, to speak, to be." &lt;em&gt;Pablo Neruda&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whoever did good to me, they did good to me period.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-5603542458087861926?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/5603542458087861926/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=5603542458087861926&amp;isPopup=true' title='11 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5603542458087861926'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/5603542458087861926'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/12/talking-nutin_03.html' title='Talking Nutin&apos;'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/STZ74u--qJI/AAAAAAAABec/-FRje9L-7fc/s72-c/gossip.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>11</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305456568914533904.post-1915133236302174710</id><published>2008-11-28T22:00:00.003-04:00</published><updated>2009-08-06T13:47:08.580-04:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiction'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiEscritos'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiWriting'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='MultiFiccion'/><title type='text'>Invierno</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SQuBIS_oCNI/AAAAAAAABaU/I0dwIPG5JmE/s1600-h/DSCDespertar-en-invierno.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5263442569050196178" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SQuBIS_oCNI/AAAAAAAABaU/I0dwIPG5JmE/s400/DSCDespertar-en-invierno.jpg" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Winter arrived and with it came many frustrations. The cold streets complained. The people would hide behind a world of rags. The streets were often silenced. Everything screams silence, sadness, solitude. Laughs ended and the music stopped sounding like summer. The autumm faded away the remaining beauties, and the souls of lovers would lie upon frozen awakenings. It was harder for the homeless to find bread, and the memories would depress the guitars and each one of the musical cords.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Don't leave"&lt;br /&gt;She said with desperation, pretending not to sound so scared. He didn't answer. He was convinced that if he didn't speak, she would not ask him any more.&lt;br /&gt;"Look at me"&lt;br /&gt;She said, trying to find a way to get him to stay. She was beautiful and gentle. Her hair was long and brown. Her eyes were dark, big and expressive. She would look at him as if her eyes could translate the language of her begging soul. She was sitting on the bed naked, covering herself with white sheets, looking at the man that had made love to her getting dressed without caring for more. Her eyes were reddened and invaded by huge and heavy tears, just like her soul. He, after getting dressed, told her he would leave with his eyes fixed on the door. She pushed the sheets away, got on his way, and begged him again.&lt;br /&gt;"Look at me"&lt;br /&gt;His eyes were now fixed on the floor, and it was as if he suspected what would happen if he glanced his eyes at her. Until he was obliged by the situation, and he looked at her, and his eyes were weakened on her. He caressed her face, closed his eyes, and joining his forehead with hers he exhaled.&lt;br /&gt;"I can't stay" he whispered.&lt;br /&gt;"Then show me you &lt;em&gt;want&lt;/em&gt; to stay" she said putting his hands on her waist.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His face became cold like snow. His eyes ceased to be weakened by the presence of the woman he loved, and spoke harshly.&lt;br /&gt;"Understand this: I'm leaving. It's already winter and I have no more excuses to stay with you." She cried with a great cry. He would fight with the desire of hugging her.&lt;br /&gt;"We should've left when we could. We should've married, and live the life you pretend to live with that woman."&lt;br /&gt;She looked at him sadly and said: "I love you".&lt;br /&gt;She kissed him with passion and gentleness. She asked him if he loved her and he affirmed. After a long, sweet kiss. He closed the door of that place leaving a poor woman in tears.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He abandoned once more the woman he loved. And his heart became frozen in the raw winter. He kissed other lips mechanically. And drowned himself in his religious routine. While she was burned by the love that tormented her, she would dedicate herself to painting murals from her heart, that burned in fire and waited. She waited for a man that loved her but that was too much of a coward to make it count for something. He drowned in the winter, and she burned his heart from affar, even if as a result of the cold, he couldn't perceive she kept it beating.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;I think that the most beautiful thing that a woman can have is that no matter how hard life hits her, she never stops being that little girl. She never stops dreaming and she never stops loving.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ffcc33;"&gt;******************************************&lt;br /&gt;Llego el invierno y con el llegaron muchos pesares. Las calles frias se quejaban. La gente se escondia detras de un mundo de trapos. Las calles eran mas silenciosas. Todo grita silencio, tristeza, soledad. Se acabaron las risas y la misma musica dejo de sonar a verano. El otono se acabo de llevar las ultimas bellezas, y el alma de los amantes se recuesta sobre amaneceres helados. Les cuesta mas trabajo a los desamparados comerse un pan, y los recuerdos amargan las guitarras y deprimen cada una de las cuerdas musicales.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"No te vallas"&lt;br /&gt;Le dijo con cierta desesperacion, pretendiendo no sonar tan asustada. El no le contesto. Se habia convencido de que si no hablaba entonces ella no le preguntaria mas.&lt;br /&gt;"Mirame"&lt;br /&gt;le dijo, queriendo de alguna manera conseguir que se quedara. Ella era hermosa y tierna. Su pelo era largo y marron, sus ojos color cafe, grandes y expresivos. Lo miraba como si sus ojos pudiesen transmitir la suplica de su alma. Estaba sentada en la cama desnuda, cubriendose con las sabanas blancas, mirando al hombre que la habia hecho suya vestirse sin importarle nada mas. Sus ojos se enrojecieron y fueron invadidos por lagrimas grandes y pesadas, como su alma. El, despues que se vistio, le dijo que se marchaba con su mirada dirigida hacia la puerta. Ella se despojo de las sabanas, se metio en su camino, y volvio a suplicarle.&lt;br /&gt;"Mirame".&lt;br /&gt;El tenia su mirada fija en el suelo, y era como si sospechara lo que pasaria si se asomaba a mirarla. Hasta que obligado por la situacion la miro, y sus ojos quedaron prendidos en ella. Acaricio su cara, cerro los ojos y juntando su frente a la de ella suspiro.&lt;br /&gt;"No puedo quedarme", le susurro.&lt;br /&gt;"Entonces demuestrame que &lt;em&gt;quieres&lt;/em&gt; quedarte" le dijo colocando sus manos en sus caderas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Su rostro se volvio frio como la nieve. Sus ojos cesaron de flaquear ante la presencia de la mujer que amaba, y le hablo duramente.&lt;br /&gt;"Comprende esto: Me voy. Ya es invierno y no tengo mas excusas para quedarme contigo".&lt;br /&gt;Ella lloro con gran lamento. El luchaba con el deseo de abrazarla.&lt;br /&gt;"Debimos marcharnos cuando pudimos. Debimos casarnos, y vivir la vida que pretendes tener con esa."&lt;br /&gt;Lo miro tristemente y le dijo:"Yo te amo."&lt;br /&gt;Lo beso con pasion y ternura. Le pregunto si la amaba, y el se lo afirmo. Despues de un largo y tierno beso, cerro la puerta de aquel lugar dejando a una pobre mujer en lagrimas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El abandono una vez mas a la mujer que amaba y su corazon se congelo con el crudo invierno. Beso otros labios mecanicamente y se sumergio en su diosa rutina. Mientras que ella se quemaba por el amor que la atormentaba. Se dedicaba a pintar cuadros de su corazon, que ardia en llamas, y esperaba. Esperaba a un hombre que la amaba, pero muy cobarde para hacer ese amor valer. El se ahogo en el invierno y ella quemaba su corazon desde lejos, y aunque el no lo percibia a causa del frio, ella lo mantenia latiendo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Creo que lo mas lindo que puede tener la mujer es que por mas duro que le de la vida nunca deja de ser nina, nunca deja de sonar y nunca deja de amar.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/305456568914533904-1915133236302174710?l=frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/feeds/1915133236302174710/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=305456568914533904&amp;postID=1915133236302174710&amp;isPopup=true' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1915133236302174710'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/305456568914533904/posts/default/1915133236302174710'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://frustratedbloggirl.blogspot.com/2008/11/invierno.html' title='Invierno'/><author><name>Multifaceted</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/S70bNuqOrqI/AAAAAAAAB4w/S6ybORZVr_Q/S220/Image04072010153240.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_bXX7f4N11UA/SQuBIS_oCNI/AAAAAAAABaU/I0dwIPG5JmE/s72-c/DSCDespertar-en-invierno.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry></feed>
