"I lean against the wind, Pretend that I am weightless, And in this moment I am happy...happy"

don't you just love those moments in life when things just keep falling into place? I'm looking back on the past two weeks and i'm still glowing from the good times. It's been a while since i've been on top of everything...i mean, REALLY on top of everything. I realized that plenty of times before i stressed myself out by spreading myself too thin, worrying about things that are no longer a priority to me. It feels so freeing to just focus back on me and having time to both get my shit done AND relax. Back then i was so incredibly "type A" it was ridiculous. Now that i've finally stopped to smell the roses, i can't imagine life any differently.

The past 2-weeks rundown:
USHER: yeah, yeah, yeah!
had a super super super hottt time. so miami w/ bill didnt work out but thank goodness for ex-boyfriends because edgar's floor ticket for tampa was mine! Thanks muchos, doober! Kanye's performance was bangin' and yo, john legend is illllll. can't wait til' his album drops. Mikey (mr. pres.) is the shit for letting us stay at the USF SAE house. and don't get me started on his roommate Robert...who is the most gorgeous boy known to humankind. can't forget lushing it out at Tia's...it's ok mae, i'll forgive you for cockblocking one day!


INCUBUS:
to my beloved band: and we meet again. to think i wasn't even going to go this time, thanks to the concert being on the same night as my night class from hell. thinking i'd be there instead of the concert, i sell off my tix but of course it's the one night my professor lets us out an hour and a half early. i'm practically kicking myself b/c now i'm ticketless.

but nothing can keep me away from my incubus!

epiphany! screw staying at home b/c my ass is speeding downtown. dude i didnt care if it was the nastiest seat in the house, i just wanted to be there. I'm running bare foot across TD Waterhouse to the ticket office b/c of course i had to look rocker chic and wear my favorite pointy toed stilletoes. Then some dude stopped me and sold me his FLOOR ticket! Luckily legit, i make my way in the same split second that beautiful brandon boyd starts the first song. dude i'm straight up in musical euphoria as the sweet sweet smell of reefer wafted around me. bliss, folks, bliss!

now that is the muthafucking shit!

note to bill (who will never, ever read this): i remembered how you used to belt incubus songs to me all the time. they played Talk Shows on Mute and i thought of you..."would i be out of line, if i said, i miss you?"

CHAPELLE:
no doubt an ill show. never disappoints and THANK GOD he didnt use the same played out shit from 'the chappelle show'. El chupacabra, what?? lol u know i have to be from kissimmee to have understood that. "BLESS THE GOD!" "We've gone too far."

MAMANG'S B-day:
The most absolutely gorgeous, strong, and kind woman on Earth (other than my mother) turned 70 and proudly, she's my grandmother. The look on her face when we surprised her with a visit down in ft. lauderdale was priceless. I love you sooooo sooooo much and aspire to be as graceful and elegant as you continue to be. Mahal kita. love seeing la familia down in weston...you guys are a riot!
