Holy Saturday get down:

Hello every1 a lot has happened :)

Last month went for a check up to see the doctor. Turns out the heart needed some up grades. Following day open heart surgey. After that a weeks worth in the hospital while nurses and doctors came to visit me. Literary poking me with needles and feeling uncomfortable and useless. Sometimes I just wanted my spirit to run out screaming then hitting the bars for some drinks. Not just yet, sigh :( But on the 10th was let out early and coming home, YAY I guess? Sleeping and going to the bathroom was another ordeal. What a nightmare! In the end, "Medstar Washington Hospital" Thank YOU so much...

Other details, I think yaw get the picture. Medstar Nurses, Phyiscal Therapist and Occupational Therapist THANK YOU. :)

Certain things are still swollen and moving around my place is getting better. But I have too say my labortory of meds is jaw dropping. I've lost track what does what???  o_O  1/2 the times I feel bad and I try not to get into the deep end. Talking to some folks and having a loving family is priceless.

Because I'm young and full of will to move forward in life, which is the only way to go REALLY!

Decided to attend "The International Pillow Fight" which this falls in April 7th 2012... Yes people Saturday.. Look don't judge me! Anyways the meeting was National Mall near the Smithsonian Institution Building, which some people call it "The Castle" around 1:00pm

I've got to say it was so much FUN, did I hurt myself of course but it was worth it. I even mentioned it to some few friends. 2bad for them work was in the way, oh-well. My sister and I went along with her engineering pal. He didn't really participated other then taking pictures and getting wacked in the head all around... Hahahaha, it was a great turn out I say a mixture of ages and the tourists got 2see locals act completely silly. Some pillow groupies had their own teams like: the capitals, the terps, etc.
We took pictures of the precrowd gathering, pillow wars and pillow guts.  And Pillow injurgies from some people. The best part was that 2meatballs (meaning sister and I ) took out 2 towers! And I took out One tower by myself. Not to shabby, hehehe...
After that we headed out to "The Cherry Blossom Festival" where we tried out some meals on wheels like: "Fojol bros. Of Merlindia A Traveling Culinary Carnival" Indian Food yummie... "SidewalksweetStations" Cup-Pies, CupCakes and CupTails this was worth the $5.00 and the long line... "TaKorean" Korean BBQ Tacos not bad. Not to mention this was all free to get in. It was worth the sun burn on my face and sore arms and painkillers for my heart and anything else that was in pain. All in all got a free bag from Safeway, bought some good foods, was able to get a beeded home made purse from "booda boutique" that was really worth it :)
Look I'm a sucker for bags and arts and crafts, can't help it!

Looking forward in getting better and attending the "USA Science Engineering Festival" for the 28th and 29th... I'll let you know... Mean Time Ciao ;)

Over all Mexico and Brazil I am very dissappointed. Mexico I am so sad, it just makes me not want to visit you at all next year! For this event you "need good pair of shoes" a "small car to park", plus know your way around DC. Of course there were some more Emabassies but with time that was given, you really can't visit all of them. I think The Cultural Tourism DC should expand the time limit to maybe 6:00pm instead of 4:00pm. Also have bus shuttles running more instead of waiting if they get full or not.

Love Stuff I guess

Hello Bloggers,
Hmmm so in American Idol Casey was dispeared and for what? Just so he can manage his beard etc what ever! It was sad to see Niama gone, but moving onto Dancing with the stars or should I say "Dancing Shoes" in my place... Watching the show and still wanting and hoping that Wendy finds some beats soon. Well it was dissappointing. Also at 10:47pm is too late too vote DAMN ABC! Ugh! So much for voting online :(
 Right LOVE, well it has come to a conclusion that I AM not meant for it... Been hurt four times, I know that for some its nothing. Look I'm just a kinky gal wanting TRUE love and who's not perfect.... I am starting to think that TRUE TRUE LOVE is a "myth"... Those who've are lucky and found it even though u've been beaten to death with it, or found some shumunck who was easy on the EYES. Congrads! But dont rub it in for those who havent found it! Cuz if it was easy for u, then it will be easy for any person too steel! Yes I am talking bout sloppy seconds... LOL 
I actually talked with a guy for 8months, never seen the guy just talked and skyped etc... Noticed in the beginning it was OMG! Later down the road it was a texted message from his part "hi, hello and what's for dinner"... Then it was the excuses of "my phone doesnt work"... And me calling him most of the time... So I said, listen up I will no longer call you or text you I am getting tired of ur dumb ass! You cant remember me or talk about life in general! Other then "SPORTS" dont waste my time! BYE, that's RIGHT blokes I kicked him to the curve... Unfriend his ass, blocked his ass off for LIFE!
So far I am only 32 single no kids, and with a TEMPER.... Who can tame me????

this is so confusing

I am sure that I will get the hang of Blogging... Very new too this wish me luck :)

American Idol

Here is a list for whom I voted for: Naima, James, Casey, Jacob, Lauren, Pia and Scotty. Funny that I actually mentioned Scotty hes not one of my favorite... It was alright hmmm anyways. Noticed Hayleys preformance and it looked like IGOR from "frankenstien" was thrompping  slowly with High Heels. On top of that she also messed up her lines by checking back with the vocals, hmmm. I say own it, or go home and sing in front of the mirror! Also Lauren is really young but the make-up they apply on her, well makes her look older! Less make-up ... Thats just me
