Favorite Super Hero & Why

Day 6

I need to put some more thought into this.

I dont remember much of my childhood. I was raised very very poor and I am not ashamed one bit. It's taught me how to be humble and appreciative of everything I have today. Growing up I didn't watch tv much. My mom couldn't afford the luxury amenities like cable. We always had antenna. I remember when we first got cable I was like 14 years old. I thought it was the best thing ever. But even then, I was never really allowed to watch anything I wanted. I always watched what the grown ups were watching. In my case, telenovelas.  So that is why it's so hard for me to even think of superheros, because I don't have any favorites or even remember. 

If I can say I have a superhero it would have to be my mother. Shes always been my Super Hero and will continue to be for as long as I live. She's always saved me from everything and everyone, even myself and that is why she is my favorite super hero. 

Day 5: A Place You've Been To

Taken with my Canon Digital Elph 10.0 MPX

So I have been to a few places within the country and one of them was Vegas. Unfortuntely it wasn't as fun as I had expected. We went to Vegas 2 years ago to celebrate the birth of 2009. My ex boyfriend and I went for New Years and it sucked!! He had this long ass face the whole night and it was just the way to enter the new year. Maybe that's why we didn't bring in 2010 together lol. Anyway, Vegas was defintely fun and despite him having his long ass face the whole time I still managed to enjoy myself.  This was the 2nd time I visited Vegas. I know the third time I make it out there will be unforgettable and I will defintely make up for the first two times.

Mayra's Playlist: Top Ten of the Week

I decided I wanted to incorporate a few new things into my YouTube Channel and music is one of them.  Music revolves around me and is a part of my life everywhere I go. I listen to music on the way home where its my local radio station or my favorite CD of all time (Los Enanitos Verdes: La Historia). I get to work and I'll play Yahoo Music or I'll plus in my Zune Player. If I'm away from my desk I'll have Pandora playing on my iPhone.  Point is music is a part of my life.

Unlike most, I do not have a music preference. I love all music. EVERYTHING. Yes. Even Country! I love me some Taylor Swift. I love me a little bit of everythign and if I havn't heard it, I'll give it a listen. Sometimes I warm up to music that I dont like at first and then I find myself unable to stop playing it.

I have Shazam Red on my iPhone. It's a music app that tags songs you may  not recognize or not know the name of if you find yourself saying "OMG! I love that song! What's it called!?" I know that  happens to me a little too often and since I've bought this app, it's been a life saver. I also use it to tag songs I adore so I can buy later, and figured I'd use it to talk about my favorite jams of the week.

So...let me get started and this is in no particular order, I love them all the same :) Click on the titles and get directed to the official music video.

Day 4: Bad Habits Anyone...

So...as you can already see...it's 10:50pm and I better get this over with now before I actually kick the habit in and not do it, and that bad habit is procrastinating. Oh yes. I am the worst procrastinator ever!! I mean it's bad. I swear I can't kick the habit. Maybe its because I"m so lazy, IDK what it is!! I end up paying late fee's left and right because I say "right now" and like my mother always said growing up "es un orita que nunca llega" which translates to "it's a right now that never arrives". Seriously, my habit is bad and just about everything! It's bad. I need to kick the bad habit!! I am truly suffering the consequences today.

For example, I said "I'll pump gas right now" as in when I get home. Well did I do that? No. And what happened? I needed to go to comcast to fix some account issues and my ass literally got stranded right before the exit! lol Luckily I had enough speed in the car to pull in and actually park the car lol.

What else? Well I finally after saying "tomorrow" for 2 months put in my new invisalign tray! My teeth are hurting soooo bad. I literally teared up when I put the tray in because of how tight they were. I swear I do not want to take out the try for fear of how painful my teeth are going to feel in the morning. If that means I have to leave the tray on for the rest of the week and go without eating then I guess I'm gonna do that because it's seriously hurts!! I took 5 ibuprofen at work today just to numb the pain! Right now I couldn't take anything cuz I don't know where any pain killers are with the move and all.

So yes, a bad habit of mine is procrastinating. Now my laptop is on 5% battery life and I been procrastinating for the past 25% battery life that I'm gonna get my charger but have I done it? Nope. I'm just gonna shut down now and go to bed :)

At least I managed to post this up on time :)

Audrey, you and I are too alike! lol :p And you know why else I'm talking about lol (rooms) hahah :)

Day 3: A Picture Of Me & Friends



From L-R: Karen, Alejandra, Liz, Gloria, Me, Rommy

 

 

This picture was taken exactly one year ago. October 10th, 2009.  It was the first time after a few years that ALL of us got together in one night. And this isn't even everyone lol. This is only who managed to get in the picture at this one time. I love the fact that they caught us off gaurd and just captured a moment! (cuz you know nowadays all pictures are just posed). This picture is priceless! I love Liz's expression! She was so drunk, you'll always find her at her happiest when she's drunk lol.

I guess animal prints were hot this night! lol No one got together and said "let's wear animal print" but when we all got there almost everyone had some sort of animal print on! lol.

Karen on the left is Liz's roomate. She's a cool girl, but very very quiet and timid, although she ain't so timid at all! But you know what they say "Las mas calladitas son las mas cabronas" which translates to...the quiet ones are the baddest bitches of them all lol and you can interpret "bad" at your own discretion lol

Alejandra aka Ale or Morena is the sweetest girl on earth! She has a heart of gold and will never hold a grudge against you no matter how bad you treat her or hurt her. She's an angel and Liz and I are the demons that corrupted her! lmao Girl knows how to enjoy life, she is hilarious!! Always making faces and being herself, cuz when you hang with us, you can be just that. Yourself.

Liz aka Chubby, ya'll know this bitch already! lol. She's my sidekick, my mini me, the annoying ass gum stuck on the bottom of your shoe! She's been MIA lately, but I still got love for the hoe.

Gloria is the newest addtion to the "fatass crew" lmao (I just made that up right now lol) she's my temporary co-worker and she can be very close minded at times so I'm trying to show her how to ease up a little and just enjoy life :). You could say she had one of the best night's of her life the night we took this picture lol.

Your Girl Mayra to which you will learn more about as this blog continues :)

Rommy my comadre! I've known her since I was 16. Well, I've known all these girls since I was 16, with the exception of Gloria. I met her when I was 20. Anyway, Rommy is one bad ass bitch! We've been partying it up since we were 16 and the girl knows how to PARTY! But now she's more settled down cuz the bitch went and got preggo twice! lol to which I baptized her mini me! I swear it looks like she shitted that kid cuz he looks just like her, acts just like her, and everything about his lil ass is like her! lol with the exception of a stick between his legs lol. You guys will meet her one day.

And that is a picture of me and some friends! These are the closest of my friends and decided to share them with you because we are all planning another get together soon so you might see them in the future :) Thought I'd intorduce them now so you can get  a feel for their personalities.
