So today I had the guts to ask if they got my application for a job at the gym. They had and the woman I asked actually had it in her hands among other applications. I asked her at the right time because the manager was right there and I was able to sit down and talk to him for a moment.I don’t know if that counts as an interview and if it will have an effect on their decision but I actually think it went well. Because it wasn’t planned or anything I didn’t have time to get scared or nervous. They were also looking for someone who is bilingual and that’s me!
This also was not like any other interview, I was not dressed for an interview wearing sneakers, a t-shirt, shorts and a ponytail. This was actually better because I felt comfortable, I wasn’t trying to impress anybody with makeup and nice clothes; it was me.
I am happy about this because I have applied to jobs but have not heard back from any of them. When I got here I hoped to find a job; a month later I haven’t found anything. I can’t lose hope and I won’t go home saying I didn’t try.

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.
