I left MSMC to go to Germany to be with my 7 years old daughter from August 2011 to May 2012.
Since my return, I was able to obtain certification to teach Spanish and am thrilled to share again on wdydwyd.

My purpose and goals have not changed: to assist every student I come in contact with find and follow her purpose in life, and to teach them to use the Spanish language for communication.

Everything is different

Everything has changed.

I feel all these emotions,

through the entire range.

Because it's my passion.<3

When i was eight,

I had a hard year.

I felt empty, 

With my eyes full of tears.

I didn't know yet that life goes on, we always move on.

When I was thirteen,

I had no real friends,

Always searching,

For a reason not to pretend, 

That i'm okay in this fucked up world of trends,

I still didn't think life goes on.

Now i'm nineteen,

Learning how to move on,

I have the best…

Your mind cannot construct

An image that will last forever.

Drop your mask.

When you embrace everything 

With the courage of a lover,

Torrents of flame

Pour forth from your heart’s core.

There is no residual ash.

I would change the way we were

I would try and make it all right

I would be nicer kinder love you more

And I would be there for you

Laugh more love more spend time together

Joke more see you more make the pain disappear

Basically I would just try harder for you to be a part of my life

And try more for me to be a part of…

I have recently comprehended the power behind social media while working on my City U class project in Tech Issues in Education. My project is to create a page on Google Sites on Have vs. Have Not’s in relation to 21st Century Learners and access to high speed internet. I decided to Google “grange + internet” and came up with nothing useful. I decided to inquire at The National Grange’s FB Group page and emphasized wanting to know about actions not words. I received a few interesting…

Right now, I am focusing on Finishing my Masters Degree, in hopes of entering the Assistive Technology (AT) field.  I stumbled on AT as a person with learning challenges, and noticed how simple technologies have made a vast improvement in my life.  I have noticed that text to speech, software along with word prediction, allows me to communicate with out my own hindrances getting in the way.  Now, I am looking for ways to support myself while helping others overcome their own challenges.

Because I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing! I feel uncertain and confused and I am just drifting. I am trying to live my life and find my path, by doing the things I want, and trying to dream dreams, I am just trying to find my life. I don't know what I am, or where I'm meant to be going, but I want to get there and stop feeling lost and unsure if I have any value or purpose.

I am just searching for myself in all the wrong places.

Burning Man and the Meaning of Life is a feature length documentary that will ask the citizens of Black Rock City the burning question: "What is the Meaning of Life?" The festival is the perfect place for these discussions because of the correlation between the Burning Man experience and life itself. People come to the festival (birth), build and experience art (life), then tear everything down and leave without a trace (death). In this sense, Burning Man is a…

i have learned recently, more now than ever before, that God is with me wherever i go and whatever i do. He loves me and i love Him. if i want to go around flinging accusations at people, or being a jerk to them, i wont automatically receive his forgiveness though....i have to ask for it. i have to actually believe that what i did was wrong and ask that God help me to change. it isnt up to anyone else, it is up to me. Jesus died for me, and i am what he died to save. if i can't ask for…

   “Why do you do what you do?” – it’s an excellent thought provoking question.  I’m not going to say that I have asked this question to myself many times.  As of now, the critical question I have been constantly asking myself is – “What do you I want to do in college?” 

   I came to UCLA without having any clear picture of what I wanted to major in and what I wanted to do after college.  Last year, my freshman year, I was Biology major, but the only reason for choosing that major was…

some people dont know what their calling is, no matter how old they are

some people know what they are meant to do from the day they learn how to read.

i knew kina what my calling was when i was younger,

but now i know for sure.

i was born to help people, whoever may need it.

and i will keep on helping them, until i can no longer stand on my own.

so stand up people, and try and help with me.

because you never know when you will need help…

I am sitting here cramming for my final tomorrow and I am pumping my body full of caffeine and sugar to keep myself awake to cram in those few extra definitions.  As I sit here sucking down a coca cola I was just wondering how bad this could be for for my body later on in life.  Like am I going to wake up to a commercial blaring that soda is the new cigarettes?  Because I cannot quit drinking soda....I love it too much.  I know that sugar and processed food is not good for the body but how…
