Here it is, May 17th, my favorite day of the year. Why is it my favorite day? Because it’s my birthday! It sounds pretty childish, I know, but it’s my day. Today I can use the phrase “because it’s my birthday”, nobody really pays attention, but I can say it, and we eat what I want. It’s fun, and the part about getting older kinda sucks, but it’s the start of a new year, a new part of my life.
I’m always curious what this new chapter in my life will be. Will I be more productive? Will I do the things I’ve always wanted to do? I don’t know, but I will have lot’s of new experiences and moments. When I was 25 I went to Punta Cana and Disney World, and I got a job; who knows what 26 has in store for me.
But I want to start this new year in my life by thanking all the people in my life who helped me celebrate this day; you all made me feel special today just by calling, texting, or wishing me a happy birthday on Facebook. I got a lot of messages today, and that’s something special. It’s great that people took a few minutes from their busy day just to wish me a happy birthday.
Thank you all! I hope this year is another great one, and that you are all still in my life next year.

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.
