I'm Baaaack

That's right, just when you thought Mi Viva Loca was over. I come back from my writers block in full force. I'm sure alot has happened since I last wrote (October 2010) but why write when you can just view photos from special moments since.
Enjoy ladies and Gents!

February 2011:
I started Interning at a showroom and got hired on,
after a month of my internship. I was so excited, life was great!....(To be continued)
Enjoying a brew at work.
May 2011:
I gradumatated!! That's right folks, there's a brain under this sweet looking afro!
Got two bachelor degrees and the determination to conquer the world!
WASTED alert!
I really couldn't have done all those long nights of sewing and minor breakdowns without my amazing boyfriend. He had faith in me from the start and always kept me motivated!
My parents, that came to this country for a better future,
and are now the proud parents to FOUR college graduates.
As an adult I realize how much they sacrificed for us kids, thanks 'Apa y Ama'.
Even the homeboy Ben Walt drove all the way from China just to make an appearance!

June 2011:
After months of my job, I realized I was miserable!
A bitter woman's inability to run a business or
figure out what she wanted, drove me to dread work everyday!
and my desk was AWFUL the last month!
So I QUIT!
It was a great day, I stood up for myself and walked out of there with my head held high.
I cried, I laughed, but most of all I celebrated being FREE!
I loved what I did and my VERY busy schedule, unfortunately my boss was a horrible business owner and beyond immature.

On to bigger and better things :)

Shortly after I quit I went into the mountains and summited Mount Baldy.
Tomster the Monster chillin'
My two fellas! xo
July 2011:
After some sad news of Bryan's grandfather passing we left for Colorado.
Although our trip was under such sad circumstances it was beautiful to be a part of the love of such an amazing family. After so many generations the love of Chris and Laura lives on.

Downtown Denver

August 2011:
After spending 12hours at Disneyland, I'm going to try my best and not let my kids realize this place exist. So exhausting!
Celebrating the ONE YEAR anniversary of our Beach Clean-Up!
Cleaned 1,500lbs+ of trash off the beach in one year!!!!
Celebrated our four year anniversary. Yikes! Time really flew by. I could only hope for many more years of adventures and love.
Cheers to a great relationship and a best friend!
He did most of the paddling :)
I did most of the sitting, photography, and the spotting of critters.
I'm 24 years old! As a kid I thought being in your 20's was old.
Now I'm realizing it's the time of your life.
Celebrated at the Dodger vs. Rockies game.
Dodgers won 6-1!!!



Until next time, thanks for reading!

Remember: Never live your life in regret or 'What if''s, there's a purpose for everything although you may just not see it yet.

Great catch up post. Enjoyed the photos and bits about Bryan and your nice tribute to Pa-pou. We know your decision about work was hard, but we're so proud of you for your courage and sticking up for yourself. We can't wait to see what this next chapter of your life brings.

ps. We've still got to celebrate your birthday, your gifts have been sitting here wrapped!

Quitting my job would have been impossible without all the love and support. Thanks! Although I never got the priveledge to meet your Pa-pou, the love in the family showed alot of who he was and how he lived his life. I felt so lucky to get to be a part of the Economy love out in Colorado.
As for my birthday, yes, we do still need to celebrate. Thanks for my present :)
