So last Friday we had our basketball final, and I'm really proud to say we won. It was a really tough game. It was really intense, and all thought this time I didn't play it was a really stressful moment. We began by loosing and then on the second quarter tied the game with Saint George. Every time we scored a point, they scored a point and that's how it went until the fourth quarter. The next thing I new we were up by ten points then they scored two more points, I look up at the screen and there is thirty seconds left we were four points apart. When the game ended I found it so hard to believe, we had won. We all had helped get to that very moment, it was great. We all screamed and hugged, some cried others screamed in happiness but the price was all ours. It made me feel so proud that our team made it this far. We were told that the school girl's basketball team hadn't been able to win in a very long time. But being in a team doesn't just bring the joy of winning but also the support you feel is amazing.
The game was maybe the most intense game I have had. We were so close to loosing and this time I didn't even play! I ended up being so tierd. When we won we all jumped around and screamed. It was the first time I had ever won anything so I was really happy to have gotten so far with my team, at first I thought we wouldn't do so well. But I was never really there to win, I was just there to have fun and make new friends. The whole season had been amazing we had laughed all the time and played amazingly well. My game improved so much from the first game to the semi-final! Before I wasn't able to take the ball from one place to another or even score a point, but I did two points during the whole season, or maybe just one because the first one I scored while we had already won by knock out. The second on was during the second round and I can't really remember who we were playing agaisnt. I think I finally found the sport I like and the one I don't plan on leaving any time soon. I really like it and feel great and relaxed everytime I play. I just love basketball!
So I have to begin to blog more again. Ever since we left for holy week I have forgot to blog everyday like always. I have no idea what to write about. Expect for the fact that yesterday was the Champions League final. It was Bayern Munich vs. Internazionale Milano. The final happened in the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid. The opening ceremony was amazing, Inter beat Munich two goals too zero both goals made by Diego Milito that almost reached Messi's goals in the cup. Milito made six goals while Messi made eight.

So my weekend is about to end, and it was mostly boring! Friday went out to lunch with some friends and then yesterday I had a party. For my surprise it was really fun!! I had a real great time with all my friends there we just laughed and hanged. There isn’t much left to say. Except for the fact that it’s unbelievable how tired I am of trying to put up to every bodies expectations. But this is over I’m just going to live and change for me, if its something that I want to do. Not because one of my friends doesn’t like who I am well that person can go find someone that will do every single thing she wants because now i'm just going to be who I want to be, not caring about what everyone else thinks anymore.
So ever since I started playing basketball I love it. It is the moment was I get everything out of my head. I remember people telling me you have to play you would be good. But I was always too lazy to commit. But now I don't regret it at all. Basketball is maybe for me the most relaxing thing ever. Last Game I scored my first basket and I was so happy. Anyways I am really hoping that my team moves on to the next round and we do great this season.
So we have been working on our speeches for the elections, of course they are just fake and will help us improve in our rhetoric. Luckly I don't need to talk because to be honest I am no good at it. I just have to write the speech, which I am not really good at either but it's a group proyect so I need to do something. We have also been reading the Bible, not in a religiouse point of view. Instead it's literary and I am pretty sure I will come to find out many new things about the beliefs of my religion. To be honest it's not like I go and read the bible all the time. I only did at my first comunion were I contributed to what the priest was saying, maybe because the priest is also my uncle. Anyways the bible has been intresting to read, becuase I would have never thought of seeing it from the literary way,until now!
So this past Wensday I played a basketaball game again so this time we actually won. I couldn't be more happy, even though I only played for a while, but I was told that I played well. Yesteday I met the guy that sins the song for the World Cup SOuth Africa 2010, in spanish. It was acutally alot of fun. Today I was also told by a group a lying people that I had a hole in my pants. I was so worried because I always seemed to get a hole in my pants but it was weird for me not to have noticed. Yeah so that's about it.
At the tournament with John Isner
With My cousins
This past week was Spring Break, so my family and I went to Mexico and Miami. The tournament turned out to be great I had a lot of fun, expect for the fact that the first day it rained all day. So I left the tournament at almost 12:30 pm. The last day I did some shopping, but I was really tired afterwards. Monday I left for Mexico, thanks to my bad luck my flight to Monterrey was changed. So I couldn't even stay because my uncle was waiting for us at the airport and we had to go to my grandparent’s house. There I just chilled and hanged out with my cousin the hole time,it was too much fun. I simply love spring break.
Today I had my first basketball game in almost three years. I really hadn't trained so I didn't now what to expect. According to the coach I played really well. I ran the hole game, now I am really tierd. RIght know I am sitting in my couch watching television and hoping for something to eat. Tomorrow I leave for Miami and I couldn't be more happy.
Juan Martin Del Potro
Rafael Nadal
So I couldn't be sadder! Juan Martin Del Potro isn't attending the Sony Ericsson Open, due to a wrist injury. I know I have already talked about these, but I am still in shock. I mean for one thing I was waiting to be able to see him again this year for months now. After the press realizes that he wouldn't be attending Indian Wells I was hoping that he would be ok for Miami. It was basically the reason I was looking forward to go to the tournament. Know I am looking forward to seeing Rafael Nadal, a Spanish player that is currently the fourth in the ATP. Though like Del Potro he hasn't had a good beginning of the year. They have both been injured in most of the tournaments. Nadal uses to be number two of the ATP before this year's injuries.
So lately everything that seems to come up randomly in my mind has to do with blogs. Normally I am seating there without anything to and bam out of the blue I get an idea of something to write about in my blog. The bad part of all this is that I end up forgetting, like today I remember I had a great idea.... but I seem to have forgotten what that idea was. So right know all I can think about is my trip to Miami in a couple of days because I do need an urgent break from school. What I am really not happy about is the fact that Del Potro my favorite tennis player won't be attending the Sony Ericsson Open because he has a wrist injury, just like me. Anyways Spring Break is on its way and I am really excited to leave Bogotá.
So during winter I read another book by Nicholas Sparks....called Dear John. I mean this book is the ultimate best love story. If I wanted to have a love story I would picture it just like that. Expect that I would leave out the ending. Now a movie came out based on the book. So I have been waiting for almost three months for it to come out here at Bogota. But I just couldn't wait, because then I would have to wait for two movies Dear John and The Last Song. So I searched for it and found it. I am actually watching it right now, so far it is nothing like the book since they changed a lot of things. Like Alan is not Tim's brother in the movie he is his son. I really need to work on my spelling and grammar. I really don't know what is their too change since it takes me a long time to realize the mistakes I am making. I hope that after all the time I am blogging one of the things that imporove are my spelling and grammar. I hope Dear John ends up looking more like the book as I am finishing it.
When you feel like you are no longer important what should you do? Well I have been thinking about that a lot lately but I am really not sure why. But I don't really have a lot to say about that right know.....expect that oh! yeah I finished the book I mentioned the other day. The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks it had an unexpected ending. But of course I won't tell you, if you are interested on knowing the end you should buy it. Well I am actually bored my day hasn't been so eventful today. I really don't like those days where it feels like nothing is happening around you. Today I hope to start another book by Nicholas Sparks named At First Sight.
So today I was playing baseball at physical education. For some reason I never really noticed when the ball was coming. So when I was running to third base and about to be safe a ball came right into my face. After an hour of feeling dizzy and having an intense headache I went to the nurse. She told me if I continued to feel like that to tell my parents. So after going over to a friends house and almost sleeping my way threw it my mom decided I needed to go to the doctor. So I went still really dizzy and with a horrible headeche. Right now I am laying down in my bed because the doctor said it would be the best thing to do. Lucly the headache has gotten better. It was just a reaction I got from the many headaches I normally have. I hope I am not hit by anything anymore because I should really start to pay attention to all those thing that happened around me.
So a couple of days ago I started to read a book called The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. I actually ordered most of his books because I love the way he writes. He has these way of showing you love and how it tens to turn out the total opposite way you would expect it. Like I mentioned before its nothing I do believe in but i personally admire how he is so good at making you believe that everything will turn out fine. I can't wait to finish the book and find out what ends up happening. So today I decided not to talk about the breakdown's I've been having lately because it does me no good and wont help the situation change. I am sure the book will end up having these end that I had never expected to happen.
Why does everything have to end in someone being a bad friend? I am simply tierd of being backstabed. I really don't know what I do wrong....I mean am I that bad? I am not sure why but I always end up finding out that someone is saying bad thing about it. Should I change for it to stop? Or should I just ignore it? What are the real reasons why all these ends up happening to me? Who is the worst friend, the one who backstabbed you or the one who covered the backstabbing from you? Does that mean this person is backstabbing you? I am not sure why but I always much rather hear someone tell me what they don't like about me. Not me finding out threw other people. I am still really confused and lost. I don't know what to...if to forgive and forget or just not talk to this people that I feel so hurt about right know. Well I should have a lot of time to think and make a decision that I consider to be the best. The one that will allow me to be happy and full of trust all over again.
So today after months and moths of pretending to be happy and fine with everything that was going on around me I broke down. After months of not shedding one tear I finally did. I did because I don't know if I am the problem or everyone else is. I am not sure if I am the one to blame for all these things I feel right now. I don't really know what do now, should I keep pretending? should I make myself believe that everything is ok and i will be ok. Or should I try to solve try to see if I am the problem like I believe I am. At the moment I am really confused all I want to do is figure out a way to solve the way I am feeling right now. When I found myself about to break down today, and found no one to talk to that's when I realized I had no idea why I am like I am today. I am someone that has always lacked of trust to those surrounding me. I am that person that is never sure if she is being backstabbed or no. I am also that one that need to constantly ask a person to keep a secret for me, because I am always scared they will tell just the person I didn't want to find out about it. Know I am here in my house still thinking is it me? Because if it is then I need to find a way to fix it. To feel conftrable again.
Life is all about ups and downs. One day everything is good, you're happy and liking the way things turn out to be in your life. The other day it's like nothing that happened the day before matters and that day is the worse day you could imagine. Like for example today my day turned out to be great and just began to be crapy. I am standing here thinking about how such a good day could turn out like this. But that is life their is always something that most defiantly will ruin your day. But well I hope as it comes into an end it will go back to normal and the great event that started my day will help me end it.
Today I went to visit a foundation to do social service for a PDR proyect. Personally I liked the place and was really intrested by the work we could there. But everytime I go to this places it makes me feel how lucky I am to be able to live the life I am living. Today we also had a subistitute in photography, which I hate. I dont hate her but the fact that we have a subsitute because we cant work. I hope next class he is their so that I can work on my photos.
So I really haven't written in a long time. Right know I am watching the Oscars right now. Some of the dresses that come out are really pretty, others I don't really like. So Thursday i went to the Coldplay concert and I absolutely loved it. I had so much fun, I loved all of the songs. The effects were simply amazing. This weekend i didn't really do anything. Now I am just laying down in my bed because tonight is oscars night
Friendship is something that always ends. When a funner person comes around that's when you are forgotten and no matter all the promises that person made to you about always being friends they leave, move on and forget. Even though you were there for them even before their new friend came around. I don't know why but these always seems to happen to me. Maybe it is that i am not fun, I don't listen well enough or like always the new person is better than me. My dad always told me that their is always someone better than you out there. I still don't understand then why cant these people value the times I was there. Why cant they just stick around. I guess maybe that is life because all the friends that I have ever had into my life left and forgot about me finding friends that are always way better than me.
Well their is always some kind of difference between reality and what you expect to happen. I really always expect the guy I like will just randomly walk up to me one day and asks me out. These rarely happens normally the guy is your friend or walks past you without even looking your way. Also when you want to meet someone you would hope for them to instantly now make everything easier and be them who talks to you not to them. Their is many thing you expect to happen but they never really do. Its always you that in the end need to take action. It needs to be you that goes up and talks to him. Obviously if you ever really get the courage to do so. I for example would never work up the courage to go up and talk to the guy I think is so hot and I look at walking by at school. Sometimes I wish all those thing that were what we expect to happen will happen. Like tomorrow when I go to school he just comes up say hi and we get into a conversation. But what is really interesting about all these hot guys that walk around in school? Well they are that interesting because you don't really know them, maybe they are really nice or maybe they are just these really high ego guys that you just end up hating. Lets wish that just one of these day reality will be just like you expect to be.
So today we have no school. It was all because their is some kind of strike going on about transportation. I am really happy because I could really use some more sleep. Lately i haven't been able to its like i am always really tired but I haven't been able to sleep. So well right now I got to the point where I can't sleep anymore. So later on I am going over to a friends house to make cookies. So lets hope it is fun and after I get really tierd so that I can have a good night sleep.
I am really still not sure what to write about it, since after a few days of writing it always makes me think what should I write about these time in my blog. Lately since I read Gilgamesh and started English I started to think about these questions Mr. Tangen tries for us to figure out the point in life. In some ways these books we have been reading answer those questions. Those that everyone asks themselves. Well that's about it for today since I still can't get any good ideas on what to write about.
Threw out my life everyone around me has taught me that family is maybe the most important thing in your life. My dad has always told no matter what I need to put them first because there will be no one in the world that loves me like they do. I think in these he is completely right. My cousins,aunts, uncles, and grandparents are people that I re-call have always been around. So if you think friends are the most important thing in your life, then your wrong. Learn to value those people that surround you, because of these I am sure those people that are around you is something you can't change so you might as well enjoy it.
My Cousins
I want to start my post today by mentioning a quote that i really like. "It's sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew" I guess that is pretty much the story of my life. The few people that I recall that have always been around me are my family,cousin's, aunts, uncles and my grandparents. I have always had a hard time with those people that aren't as good friends to me anymore. Maybe the fact that I always expect for the people that sourround me to stick arround is the reason that it always affects me so much. I also liek some other quote that i though about today "it is he who seek love, it is he who seeks happines, it is also he that is never able to find it". I don't really know why but I just seem to think about it. I still have had a hard time to come up with new ideas to post about these past few days becuase to me I nearly covered everything that is bothering me at the time.
Fun With My BFF
I don't really know what to write about, it seem to me that for the week I am done with ideas of topics that interest me. Maybe because I have covered about every topic that truly bothers me right know. I have these friend Santiago, he always keeps making fun of everything going on. He always seems to find the humor in everything that turns out to happen. Finding the humor in things is maybe the greatest thing you could do, I always try to find that funny side to everything. Also today in photography I enlarged my first picture. It felt really good because I had taken all the pictures and seeing the outcome was just great.
Yesterday my friend happened to mention how I in some way was like Al Pacino, because like him i didn't love anybody. I found that really funny. I don't know I guess he is right in someway. I mean I do love my friends and my family. I am not sure if the type of love he was talking about is that type of love they show you on the books. The typical girl and boy that never believed they would be happy and find love. For me that's just in books. It doesn't really exist for me. It something fictional like those book I read every now and then. I know how everyone says love is for everyone and everyone will eventually have it. But me i don't think it will ever come around. The more I think about it the farther it seems. I see everyone around me and they have lived it and known it. Me never I guess i have been cupid and the third wheel always. I mean being cupid or match maker doesn't bother me a lot. I love to do it because i see the outcome my friends happy and the other person happy as well. That's maybe what makes me the happiest out of being the third wheel.
After years of moving around and having many different friends I came to one conclusion! I have a hard time saying I have a bff, if I do say so that means the person had to do a lot of things that would make me realize they are worth my time and me being mas, sad or happy about anything that happens with them. One of the people I trust the most is a friend of mine named Valeria. She doesn't live in Bogota anymore, but everytime something happens that makes me really happy or really sad she is the first person I think of telling.I rember when I first met her and I instantly started trusting her and telling her everything. I rember how I began to trust her, it was one day that she had come over to my house and out of the blue guessed who I liked. Ever since she has done the same. Latley I have thought about how all of my friends are pretty recent. I see my brother he has his best friend in Mexico ever since he started school, everytime we go they see each other. But I don't have that, I don't really know why but that's how life is. I hope that all the friend I made now and I am in contact with stay my friends for now and for always. I can't only think of the many times I have thought that maybe if I had stayed in Mexico I would have friends that I new ever since I started school. But that's how my life turned out to be. Me moving from one place to another and having to make new friends. Never really knowing were to go next and if these place will be as easy to adapt as the previouse one. But how can I possibly be thinking so much about these? I don't really get myself, that's why I try to write about it and maybe by reading threw it I will understand fully why I get all these random thoughts about friends, and how long they have been around. But right now that shouldn't be an issue it should be how long I will be friends with the people that are currently in my life. Many people have told me friends come and go, but I wish just once at least one of my friends stays for good, that way I would be able to look back at a lot of years of amaxing memories. Maybe so that these friend last until I am fourty or fifty, that way she can be the godmother of our childern or something like that.
Del Potro is for me one of the greatest Latin American tennis players in history. I have always admired the way he play and how humble he is. Maybe the moment where he was the happiest in his life was when he won the U.S Open, I even started crying with him. I remember last year when I went to the
Sony Ericsson Open in Miami i waited threw all of his game just to be able to obtain his autograph. At first he left without signing my wallet, but I started screaming Del Potro, Del Potro and he came back and signed it. I am looking forward to the Sony Ericsson Open this year, where I hope to see him again.It is the one of the stops of the
ATP world tour
I love using my blackberry, like I can always be in contact with my friend even when I am not at home or close to a computer. I don't know why but like I seem find it so much fun! Maybe because I spend all my day with it. The other day I was watching valentines day and this girl say that her closest relationship she has is with her blackberry and thanks god it vibrates. I think this is an intresting way of seeing it. But I don't consider my blackberry that close to me. But I mean its an obession!! I just can't stop!! Like I start bbming( the act of using blackberry messeger) and I just can't stop! But like you know it like so much fun!!! Well that's a part of my life and that's a part of what it goes.
I don't now why i always happen to seat around and think and think for hours. Maybe because there is no one i really trust at the moment. Thinking and keeping to myself is what I find the easiest to do. It has come to my attention that for me trust had always come to be hard. But then I see myself and my life is surrounded by great people that by what i notice care of what goes on in my life. I really don't have many best friends and that part saying i have a best friend come even harder than just trusting people. I don't really understand why or what events in my life let me to be like these, maybe the fact that i move around so much and for me it's hard to live behind and easily make new friends that i have strong bonds with like the previous ones. But as time passes i change and notice that the less i care the better it turns out to be for me.
Tomorrow is valentine's day.....and i can't help but wander why they made up these typical Holiday just to remind you that your single or i don't now. So these Friday the movie valentine's day came out here in Bogota. I went and watched it with on of my friends. I Saw so many different stories of love and not love. There was even an I HATE VALENTINE'S DAY party it was really funny how everyone in the end found there own way to celebrate it, in a good or bad way. So I think the day when I don't want to have an I hate valentines day party will make these my favorite holiday in the year.
I have always found it hard to trust people that surround me, but somehow there is certain people that since the first day i meet them, I just can't wait to tell them all about me. I don't really understand why these happens, because it just makes me realize how maybe my current friends weren't all what i thought. But then I think i don't need to trust them if i have fun with them then they can still be my friends. But at first I didn't understand the difference between good friends, friends and best friends. I guess now I understand it, having many friends is good and fun. But not all of them need to be the closest. I learned these from my mom. I don't now why but I have always had an opinion that is extremely hard to change. I think the reason is because one of the things that I would most hate to be is a follower. I am annoyed by the people that surround me that are followers. Maybe because for me having my own opinion about everything is really important. Why would i want to share the same opinion than someone else just so they like me? I just think that is really dumb and people should have there own way of experiencing their opinion and not be judged about it.
Since I was eight years old I began to have a life that is familiar to many people in our world. These is moving from place to place. I still remember the moment when I was told I had to move to Lima. I never expected that I would leave these city were I had met my first friends, gone to my first school and most importantly the place were all my baby memories had happened. It all started at a normal day were my sister and my brother were called to my parents room. After that I new it would always happen like these. For me moving to Lima wasn't a big deal at all I mean I was young and couldn't really understand what was going on. My first day of school was nothing I was use too the first thing I thought was these place is so crowded.I had the funnest elementary school year I could have had. But int fifth grade we had the conversation in my parents bedroom all over again. I was not ready for these at all I had so many plans for my first years of middle school with my friends from there. These time we had to move to Bogota, Colombia. Its been three years and a halve and I have been extremely happy. But when I came to the school in Bogota I realized it wasn't elementary school anymore and I couldn't make friends as easily as before. Maybe the first year was the hardest I didn't really go out, I was never invited. But as the year passed things got better.Ever since I have been happy. Nothing out of the normal fights, laughing, hanging and all that. But all I can say is these is my life and these is how it goes
