I have great news, I finished Christmas decorating in my house!

This year I got the Christmas spirit very early on; I wanted to start decorating on November 1st, but I decided to wait a little, at least till the middle of the month. On Wednesday I just could’t take it anymore and I took my Christmas tree out of the box and started decorating it and the rest of my apartment.

I don’t know if it was the liberty I now have to decorate how I want, when I want to or if I just really want it to be Christmas for some reason. I just know I knew where the box with my tree was, I found all my decorations and I spent all afternoon moving stuff around deciding where it would look better.

I didn’t know I had so many things, I mean, I wasn’t able to finish until today but I remember I had nothing last year so I guess between the stuff people gave me last year and the what I’ve gotten throughout the year, I’m all set. I had so many things on my dining room table, it looked like Christmas exploded on it yesterday.

As I kept finding stuff I realized I have three different sets of Christmas kitchen towels and I couldn’t fit all my decorations on the tree. I also have a singing tree and reindeer and I’ve already moved my tree twice to find the perfect spot. I already lit it and it’s really pretty, it would only be better if it smelled like a real one but I even have a pine tree diffuser and Glade air freshener.

 

I wore my Santa hat for the Thanksgiving lunch at work and everyone loved it, I don’t know if the remember I wore it all December last year but I will wear it again this December. Now the real Thanksgiving is only a week away, and I can’t wait to start seeing all the trees, lights, garlands and pascuas everywhere!

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.
