Quick and painless... hopefully

It's 11:27 and i'm pooped and ready for bed
that alone should let you know how fun/hard these past few weeks have been

if you know me from any other sphere of the internet or real life,
then you MUST know that i've had some visitors staying over my house lately
two very expected and anticipated visitors
my 4 year old and 1 year old cousins
*i would insert a pic here but.. alas... Blogger isn't helping*

they make my day shine no matter how dark it is
which is why i moved earth and sea to be with them at all moments

Holy week was a whole 'nother experience with them
i even went to uncharted grounds: spending Easter weekend away from home
it was amazing =)!

but before Holy week...
i had THE most amazing trip...
got a chance to spend the day with my fave radio talk show hosts
*aka Nashla Bogaert, Ico Abreu, Mauvie Espinosa, Yuri Sosa, Amin Dominguez*
and some local rock stars ;)
*aka: Auro Sonico, Pablo Cavallo, Gnomicko, Chino Sing, Juango Davalos*
and to top it off, we spent the day in one of the most gorgeous parts of the country: Los Haitises
(blogger is still being a pain... if you wanna see the pix click HERE)

of course
one musn't forget everything...
COLLEGE is driving me insane.
seriously.
i thought once i didn't have such a demanding job it would be easier to manage college
NOT!
this cycle is super tough.
and it's taking every grain of me to finish it with good grades
*i'm SO close to the finish line!!!*

that aside
i'm getting my braces taken off this wednesday
