Yesterday I learned how to cut a pineapple we would use today to make Piña Colada. I told her we had to make it when she bought two pineapples on this weekend, but by we I meant you ( my aunt, Titi Marta), so we made it today for Father’s Day. I had never done that in my life, and I informed her (Titi Marta) that I have never even eaten a pineapple, I just like Piña Coladas, but she said she would teach me how to make it.
So first she cut off the crown and the stem, sliced the skin off, and then taught me how to remove the eye spots.


As she demonstrated I was just afraid I would cut my fingers off when I did it, but thank God I didn’t. There was no blood or any accidents but my pineapple didn’t look as nice and professional as hers, mine looked like a child had removed the eyes.

It really didn’t matter because later she cut it again into large pieces and today it all went into the Osterizer today when we (she, I watched and took pictures of the process) made it the Piña Colada.



That was all new to me but I would like to do that again, maybe even take more action in making the Piña Colada because in the end it turned out really good.

I accomplished a lot this weekend, sanding and painting two chairs, making a Piña Colada and making sure my dogs didn’t get car sick today. It was all a success, let’s see what else this week brings.

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.
