Today we completed our three miles walk in Old San Juan.
We were trying to walk out up tu El Morro, outside the walls of the city but the entry outside the wall was closed.
Even though we had to go back down the way we came it was a good walk, the view of the ocean is beautiful but it looked a little scary. You really don’t want to go to the beach right now, there is a lot of current and there are a lot of waves. It’s not safe to go in the water in winter.
We walked for a while inside the city, which we thought would be pretty empty but there were a few tourists and some people doing last minute Christmas shopping, standing in line outside the stores. I was so happy to have finished all my Christmas shopping weeks ago when I saw that.
I also finished today’s video this afternoon. I wanted to do it earlier but I got caught up working on something else and lost track of time.
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.
