God only knows...

I may not always love you
But long as there are stars above you
You never need to doubt it
I'll make you so sure about it
God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I'd be without you
God only knows what I'd be without you

God only knows what I'd be without you
If you should ever leave me
Though life would still go on, believe me
The world could show nothing to me
So what good would living do me?
God only knows what I'd be without you

I always sing this song in my head when I think about you... Happy Birthday, I love you and God only knows...

The best medicine...

for me is this baby right here, watching him just makes me automatically happy... but I can't help but think about how much his little tummy must hurt every time I watch this.

Only one...

Gwen you can find like this... love love love her cd, already listened to it about five times now and want Yummy to be her new single... Hubby is going to get annoyed quickly, oh well... I'm feeling Yummy head to toe :D

My little man

I remember when Luis had first arrived to NY to meet my family, the person that had the hardest time accepting him was my cousin Irving. He would not say hi or anything, he'd just keep his distance and just look at him from afar. About a month later he started talking to him and all it took was the Hulk movie that was playing on tv. Now it's like he loves him more than me?! Even though we'll be home soon, we both wish we'd be there for his and my sis' birthday. Happy B-day buddy!

Wrap him on...

The beast within...

is a coming... so sad, yet so true! Hahaha

Thankful...

I have so much to be thankful for, my marriage (even though he can be a real bugger sometimes), my health, my friends, and my family. They make me happy. Just recently I've been getting more and more ancy about our trip, I feel like so much needs to be done. It'll be nice to do our Christmas shopping back home, although I'm still not quite sure about what to get for some. I know I'm super excited to get me one of these
I'm just undecided about which one to get! Heck, I might go crazy and get them all!

Fun stuff...

I've got my Mojo working...

Gosh, I feel great. I've been feeling happy and even though it has been yet again another birthday that wasn't celebrated with my family, I am so glad I got to spend the time with hubby and friends. I don't know why but, I just feel different in a very good way, maybe it's the awesome "mini makeover" I got as a birthday gift from Amanda, that has "improved" me in a way. And also just knowing that it's getting closer and closer to head back to New York, and getting that cozy feeling when I think about walking in the streets of New York with friends and family while sipping on some yummy caramel apple cider. Mmmm, I can see it now.

Happy B-Day Kitty!

I know that I am not alone when it comes to having a crazy obsession with this cat, the weird thing with me is that I'm not a cat person. Kitty is the one and only cat I love. Maybe I'll never have my Kitty kitchen or bathroom, (because hubby won't allow it) but she will show her presence around our future home for sure! http://www.hellokittyhell.com/ This website just cracks me up!

This is Halloween, this is Halloween...

Halloween! Halloween! Halloween! I LOVE Halloween! The party this past Friday was great, even though I didn't sleep right for a couple of days, it was all worth it because everyone loved the decorations and the food (I need to upload those party pics later). Luis and I got to meet Amanda (Amanda's childhood friend, who's also named Amanda and will be working with the tutoring gang) and her cute family, her little girl is as cute as a button! As much as I love Halloween and try to make it a fun time while living here, Hubby and I still talk about Halloween in New York, the parade, the crazy costumes and everything. I sometimes wish I was back home, especially when there is something exciting going on there and this night is one of them. Amanda, I found this video and you need to check it out to see what we're missing! I like the doggie with the bloody arm and Hitler.

Soo cute!

After getting over my little bummed out mood from not winning one of the super cute Elsie skeletons, I felt a little inspired and simply had that crave to create something and came up with these Elsie inspired skull pins. I'll be giving them away at the Halloween party and my MIL is helping me make some mula out of these cuties by selling them to her students.

The collection's complete...

for now that is. After going back and forth from Target, they finally get the shipment today! So hubby got me a copy to keep me busy for some time, while he plays his game. I guess that's how we tend to spend time together sometimes, especially if we both have games we desperately want to get addicted to. Now, I was introduced to the world of The Sims about a year ago or so and haven't turned back since. I am crazy about this game, it's just fawesome! It's like that character from The Chappelle show, Tyrone Biggums and his "I want some crack" line, well, for me it's "I want some Sims". It's bittersweet whenever I get a new expansion pack because I know that inside that damn box is going to be a piece of paper announcing the NEW expansion pack coming within a couple of months or so! It will never end. Freakin a! But for now I'm off to make my pooch.

Happy happy, Joy joy...

I am so flipping happy that Jeffrey won! I loved him from day one. I swear, I didn't know how the heck I would have reacted if he had left the show! I mean I just get so into the show, and I have so much admiration towards all the contestants, but Jeffrey, he just got me right away. Junnie, I want this shirt! Pleeaasseee!!

Dee Dee Dee...

Gosh, as much as I hate that, this dude had us all laughing from beginning to end this past weekend. I don't think I've seen Luis laugh as hard in a looong time. We all had an amazing time, and ended the night with great grub from the Hamburger Inn (Mmmmm). Good times.

Left my man at home...

but I sure as heck was not alone! Amanda, a couple of her buddies and I went out to have the ultimate girls night out this weekend with the super sexy Chippendales. We all had an amazing time. Good thing we had an expert in the group, Vero knew exactly where to sit and everything! Both Amanda and I fell in love, deep and hard, with this sexy dude, Paul Gunn. Sigh. Good times.

Movie time

Finally got a chance to see this movie with hubby and bros. in law. I love our movie time, especially when my very picky brothers in law get into the movies I pick out. Go rent it.
On another note, I'm super excited about getting my copy of FutureSex/LoveSounds! Can't get enough of that "Sexy Back"!!

Remembering

There isn't much I can say about September 11 that hasn't already been said. I, like everybody else, remember everything, from the days before and after it happened. I was in High School, and my Sociology teacher Mr. Hurley had mentioned something about the Towers, but didn't really say much for me to be scared or anything. I didn't fully find out what had happened until they had sent all the seniors to the gym and explained everything. They had even set up a tv for everyone to see. I remember that while I was watching the news, everything around me was spinning. I was happy to be let out of school since they let everyone from the senior class who could get home safely go. As I got out, I could see darkess downtown. All I could think of after that, was my family, my sister Sheyla, and how I needed to go pick her up and get home.
Now, I'm not sure if many might agree with me, but I have so many mixed emotions when I hear about September 11. I'm tired of seeing the same images over and over. It's not that it doesn't make me sad, because it does. I guess it's something I can't explain. I just now that I, like everybody else, remember everything, from the days before and after it all happened and will never forget.

The long awaited

pictures are finally here! Many could care less, but I mean who could not love that face! Makes me want one too. On another note, I had an awesome long weekend with friends. Went to my first KLAQ BBQ this year and got to see Smash Mouth, good times.

OK Go

Now, I haven't fully seen the VMAs since high school, but I'm just so excited about these guys! Can't wait to see them perform.

For my Pookie

Te la dedico a ti mi amor. Muah!

Closure

Gosh, I feel like as if it's been years since I last posted. Luis and I had an amazing time in New York, and are already excited about going back in the winter with our friends. I really needed that time that was spent with my family. I needed that time to get away and enjoy the many things that have been missing in my life. I came back not necessarily a diffrent person, but happier, much much more happier.

There's no place like home

I can't describe how happy I've been since I've gotten here. It's getting close to two weeks now and I still haven't been around the city just for fun. I've just been spending so much time with my family. We all cried like babies the night Luis and I arrived. I had told my mom a while back to keep it a secret, although she had to tell my aunt since she'd be the one doing the cooking, those meatballs were delicious! Anyway, my cousins and sisters didn't know anything about my arrival, but later told me that they had been suspicious, since my aunt was cooking my favorite meal and my mom had bought me my favorite treats. It's awesome to be home, to be able to say goodnight to my mom and sisters, to be able to hug and kiss them. Sigh. There really is no place like home.

New York State of Mind

Just FIVE more days!! I've been so excited about going home, that I haven't been able to sleep right for the past couple of days. Luis and I have so much to do! I just know that I'm going to be freaking out on Friday. Only a few of my family members know that I'm leaving Saturday, I hope everything goes well, since my sisters and cousins don't know and hopefully won't get fishy when they see my aunt making her famous meatballs (one of my fav. meals).

Can't get enough...

Eric Bana! Just recently saw him in Munich a couple of days ago and *sigh* only he could make 70's fashion look so Yummy.

Mmmm, smell that dirt!

I didn't really know what to expect when I first arrived to El Paso. I mean I didn't know anybody, I had to have someone drive me everywhere, and I didn't have my family. I just felt alone. That is, until I started making friends. Now, it did take me a year to meet new people, but all that time I spent alone was so worth it. For the friends that I've made here are just incredible people. I'm going to miss you guys so much while Luis and I are away. The cool thing is that I'll have lots of stories to share with my family. Stories that I hold so close to me, that just set you guys apart from the people I've met in my life. Like how much you all like it when it rains, and that "great" smell that comes along with it. You all know that I'm not very fond of how it smells when it rains here. But, lately I've been hoping so bad that it rains before I go, that I was just so excited when it started to rain yesterday. Now, maybe it'll rain again tonight, I can't smell it yet so we'll see. Amanda, I know the smell of rain over there will probably won't be the same, so I hope you too are enjoying the rain and your last few days here. I'm already missing you! :(

Whatevah!

For Amanda and Frank. Enjoy.

My Mom

I know that here Mother's Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May, while in Mexico and South America it's celebrated on the 10th of May. In my family we tend to celebrate both days, but today's means the most to me. I haven't celebrated Mother's day with mom for the past three years, which leaves me feeling sad at the end of the day. The past three years haven't been so great for me. I miss my mom and family so much. I especially miss my mom when I have those happy, sad, silly, and exciting moments, because I know it's a constant reminder that she and my family aren't here. Even though I'll be going to see her this summer, a part of me will always miss her for those ordinary moments that weren't shared together.

White men CAN dance!

He made my day! :D

I heart this Pussy...

Cat! I believe it was love at first sight when it comes to this very special kitty. I mean how can you not love her and the rest of her little Sanrio buddies?! She just brings as smile to my face, can't say my wallet feels the same, but I know she's always been worth it.

Newb

Newb*, the first thing that comes to mind. That, and the face Luis will give me once I tell him about the blog! Haha. I can see it now. I know he's not going to be excited about it, but he has to give in. I mean all the cool kids are doing it! :)

*A term used to describe a inexperienced gamer/person/etc. Unlike a noob, a newb is someone who actually wants to get better.
Someone who is new to the activity that they are currently partaking in.

Example:
Leet Player: Why is he just looking at the wall?
Other Player: I think hes a newb.
