I have spent all day reading news on social media about the president and vice- president elect. It is such great news I can’t seem to keep my attention away from it after waiting for so many days. This is not the last of this, we still need to hear the final results of the elections here in Puerto Rico, but this is such a relief!

I couldn’t just sit and watch the news all day, even if they were good news and if I was tired. I already slept all morning and I needed to complete the last day of my six day workout. I departed myself from my phone and went on a bike ride in my living room for 45 minutes.

It was more than what I did yesterday. I was so tired yesterday I didn’t even feel like writing about it. I just walked for 16 minutes and did a video for 16 minutes. It wasn’t much but it was something.

After I finished that, I decided to start decorating my apartment for Christmas. I don’t usually decorate this early but we’ve had a tough year and I want to celebrate the Christmas season as long as I can and today seemed like a good day to start celebrating.

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.
