Happy Three-Kings Day!
As the holiday season ends with the New Year for a lot of people, it still has a few more weeks for some of us. Today we are celebrating Three-Kings Day, the day that represents the three kings, or three wise men that visited and brought gifts after the birth of Jesus. To prepare, kids leave boxes filled with grass, the night before, for the kings’ camels to eat as they visit each house to leave their presents. If there is no food the camels might skip that house because they’re hungry
These kings leave presents, but this day does not focus so much in the giving and receiving of gifts. Today focuses more on spending another day enjoying the company of family and friends. Of course this involves food and music, just like the other holidays, and it’s just as festive.
Just like Christmas gives a happy ending to the year, Three-Kings Day gives it a happy beginning. It allows us to keep the celebration going for a little bit longer and helps us create more good memories and festive moments with loved ones.
Tarde pero seguro, Feliz Día de Reyes! Espero que hayan pasado un bonito día con sus seres queridos y que el nuevo año les siga dando cosas buenas.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
