About Me

So I'm typing these random thoughts at 3am because I can't sleep! It’s been almost 8 months, since I packed my bags and drove cross-country with my parents to good ole Lynchburg, Virginia. I have embraced the slow paced lifestyle, even though sometimes it drives me nuts. It’s wonderful to see the four seasons here, so far I’ve loved the changing of the brightly colored leaves of fall, and the beautiful blossoming of the trees and vibrant flowers of spring. I often wake up to the roaring trains that are passing through. One thing, however, I refuse to add the word “Y’all” to my vocabulary. I absolutely miss and think about my family, my amigas and amigos and family gatherings in Salinas. I miss Monterey and the good restaurants, going to Santa Cruz at night, the Boardwalk, chilling the beach, and going to plays. I often have cravings for REAL Mexican food, Seafood, Thai food, artichokes, and Pho- Vietnamese noodle soup. I still think the West coast is the best coast. I enjoy being outdoors here in the Blue-ridge mountains-more like rolling hills to me. Hiking, biking and jogging seem to be the activities to do here. I’ve recently picked up mountain biking and have taken a break off of tennis. I took a break from the corporate world and now I’m going back to it. I like fruity smells and fruity lotions which makes me a fruity girl. I like the colors turquoise and coral. I am random, laid back and I like to laugh. I tend to go with the flow and like to have fun wherever I go. That rhymed didn’t it, yo?God is good and continues to bless me when I least expect it. This layout was handmade with love by the folks at My space or yours? Go get one!
