Emotions for June 22.

June 22 of 2010 at 11:30am, I start the journey of my dreams. I can’t wait; there are so many emotions inside of me…. I can hardly express one.

I am so excited to set foot in a different nation were the culture, the food, the people will all be different, nothing like I have ever experienced. It just seems crazy that in a matter of a week I will be walking in African land. In a matter of time, I will be speaking with them, learning from them, eating from their tables, and well simply spending time with them. I keep wondering what it will be like…what it actually looks like, what its like to be in their shoes. I am just curious to know how will they see me, will they see me different? Will I be considered strange? Or normal? What is that am going to learn? I am just curious.

So in June 24 at 4am, I will set foot in this questionable place. From there on I hope to see my questions being answered and curiosity fading. Or maybe I will just have more unanswered questions! Who knows! For now I will just keep wondering.

EN ESPANOL: Emociones para el dia Junio 22

El 22 de junio de 2010 a las 11:30 AM, comienzo el viaje de mis sueños. No puedo esperar, tengo tantas emociones.... que casi no puedo expresar ni una.

Estoy tan emocionada de poder ir en una nación donde la cultura, la comida, la gente es diferente, nada como lo que yo he experimentado. Me parece una locura que en cuestión de una semana voy a estar caminando en tierra africana. En cuestión de tiempo, voy a estar hablando con ellos, aprendiendo de ellos, comiendo de su comida, y simplemente pasando tiempo con ellos. Me pregunto cómo será ... como es en realidad, como se siente estar en sus puestos. Tengo curiosidad de saber cómo van a verme, diferente? ¿extraña? ¿O normal? ¿Qué es eso que voy a aprender? Solamente tengo curiosidad.

Así que el 24 de junio a las 4 AM, voy a llegar a el lugar de mis preguntas. Y a partir de ahí espero ver que mis preguntas se contesten y que mi curiosidad desaparezca . O tal vez nascan más preguntas! ¡Quién sabe! Por ahora me quedo con la curiosidad.

Piece 3 : Siblings

I know 1 girl and 1 boy who share my same parents. We have grown together, my sister was here before me and my brother came 9 years after me. With Valerie (sister) well we grew-up together, we are only 10months and a half apart. And with Carlitos (brother) it has been different, instead we have been part of his childhood and the best years of life;)! I love them both; to me they are friends that will never leave my side. They are always there; I think they are those people that won’t leave you alone no matter what life you live. They are so amazing.

Piece 2 : Parents

My Parents, Carlos and Gladys…brought me to this world. I thank them for tons of things they have done for my siblings and me. I think they are the best role models. They know how to enjoy their life, and I believe I have learned that from them. They have guided me to God, whom inspired the book of the best way to live life. They have showed me, how God is everything and I need to have faith in Him… because everything we have its because of Him. My daddy and mommy are simply amazing, I am who I am because of them. I thank them so much for letting me be myself, for supporting my dreams, for putting me in line, and for loving me unconditionally.

I LOVE YOU, TOO.
