"Enjoy the little things" 

 what can be better then enjoying the things you already have. go to the park and have a picnic with your family. play hide and go seek then watch the sunset together. walk around your neighborhood and wish everyone a good morning, you will make their day 10x better i can assure you. celebrate waking up healthy. take a deep breathe and enjoy the fresh air. take a look at your surroundings and enjoy the Cali sun

"regret nothing"

life is about taking chances. risking things. doing what you are afraid of. what will you be if you do nothing? if you don't experience life the way you want to?try things even if you mess up. you can only move forward and learn from your mistakes. learn to live life. no one is perfect we are only human. enjoy everything first hand not behind a glass door. you live & you learn . ⓛⓘⓥⓔ  ⓛⓘⓕⓔ   

"laugh hard and love even harder"

laugh everything off. there is no point in holding grudges and being mad at people. you never know the time you will have to spend with that person. if they truly mean something to you then let it go, move on and enjoy them, their company, their overall.their is nothing better than laughing, it lifts your spirits and brighten others as well. show love and compassion towards others. show them affection. love is one of the biggest emotions we have. enjoy it to the fullest because you can. don't let the negatives outweigh the positives. you have the power to live your life the way you want to. it all comes down to...

how bad do you want it? 

There is this little song I wrote 

I hope you learn it note for note 

Like good little children 

Don't worry, be happy 

Listen to what I say 

In your life expect some trouble 

But when you worry 

You make it double 

Don't worry, be happy...... 

Don't worry don't do it, be happy 

Put a smile on your face 

Don't bring everybody down like this 

Don't worry, it will soon past 

Whatever it is 

Don't worry, be happy 

- Bob Marley

One Love ♥ hakuna matata ☮

♡ Unconditional Love ♥

love. amor. Is breá.aimer

عشق. حب.αγάπη. მიყვარს

It doesn't really matter how you say it. Love is love no matter what. ღ

“And there’ll be a lot of love passed between us. Ted, we've had thirty-five years of friendship. You don’t need speech or hearing to feel that” (71). 

Tuesdays With Morrie has a lot of messages, but the biggest one is the one we are yet to conquer. Love. It is an emotion, a felling, state of mind, something spiritual, something that goes deep down into our souls. or so many of us believe. It is something we strive to get. Not all of us reach it but there are so many different types of love that we sometimes experience it without even noticing. There is a love between a parent and child, a friend and friend, a women and a man, a stranger and stranger, person and god/spiritual belief, person and passion. You don't always need to say it, yes words help but sometimes actions speak volumes all on their own. as they say actions speak louder than words and if you say exactly what your feeling by looking someone in the eyes you have surpassed a great challenge. 

Don't ever give up on love, it might take a while to find but everything great comes with patients. open your eyes, love might be right in front of you, you just have to give it a chance and look a little deeper. 

Eco Friendly.

recycle. That is a term we often hear but don't always do something about. I must admit I am one of those people that does not like to litter and tries to keep things clean but that doesn't change the fact that I don't always recycle. You might think "oh what difference will one person make" but actually that is all it takes. Is one person. It's like a chain reaction that is constantly happening. One person sees you do something and then they think well it's better for our environment so they do it too, someone sees them and so forth. One less piece of plastic in our ocean, one less can aimlessly thrown on the side of the freeway, that will help. It will help the earth so it will be healthier and we will be able to live here longer. In a less polluted environment  with more clean air and bright blue skies. It doesn't mean you have to you have to save cans and bottles in plastic bags even though that a great idea. Who doesn't want extra $$ in their pockets? As long as you throw it in the recycling bin, its all good. You don't even have to throw it out. You can use it to be artsy. Build things, construct. let your brain juice, your
  i m a g i n a t i o n flow. Use your creativity to create beautiful creations out of ordinary everyday things. Fill your yard with jars filled with little candles for a night of magic and inspiration. The little things you do go a long way. 

Gates of Paradise.

a Blue Bloods Novel 

Gates of Paradise by Melissa De La Cruz is a series of vampire novels. It was published by Hyperion, an imprint of Disney Book Group. Melissa De la Cruz is the New York Times and USA Today best-selling author for several different book series. She graduated from the University of Columbia and majored in art history and English as well as night clubs and shopping. (: She now divides her time between New York and Los Angeles but her home is in Hollywood Hills. The series stared in 2007 and this is the last book of 7. It stared in 1620 where the Mayflower carried men and women over to the US and only a few survived the journey What no one knew is that those people were not human they were in fact vampires. They established themselves in New York and have become people of power and wealth. Then the unthinkable happens and they start being killed of one by one. Thus Schuyler Van Alen's (half mortal half immortal) journey began. Along the series she'll face life changing decisions face problems between life and death, embark in a journey no other 16 year old ever has. She has help from her trusted best friend Oliver, Mimi, Jack and Bliss. In the Gates of Paradise, she is faced with loosing her love and a battle between Angels and demons. The Fallen & Damned. You think about life, the choices we make and how they will affect others, those around us those after us and everyone in between. Whether you will be selfish and do things for you or try and help others even if it means giving up your hopes and dreams.. what makes you happy. It sucks you into a world you never thought existed.


Amazing! That is what I can say about this book. From beginning to end, it has you engaged and you DO NOT want to put it down. I started reading the series back in 2010 and finished almost all of them in two months. I was set back because three of them had not come out yet but the wait was well worth it. It was everything a book needs, romance, suspense, thrills, adventures, excitement and so much more. You dive into a different world, well at least I do. I can picture everything happening like a movie playing in my head. For example, I am a helpless romantic. The happy ever after have me hooked right away and the romance in this book is amazing. There is a series of love triangles, forbidden love and affairs, and best of all it portrays true love for what it really is. You at the edge of your seat wondering what’s going to happen next, will they survive, will they conquer the battles, fight for their love and finally defeat evil once and for all.  "Tomi knew the danger, but couldn't stop from looking back backward. The sight was magnificent in its horror. The black fire erupted over the castle wall, melting the gray stone as if it were made of wax…” (32) Vampires are huge in media right now. They have TV series, books, movies and everything in-between. . "Vampires" are something that has always been around but lately they have blown up even more. If you are into vampires and like the twilight series, you will like this book. It is about a fight between good and evil and forbidden love the only difference is that this book is 20 times more intense. It did not really affect me in a personal leave but it did have me really hooked. I could not put it down. I am still a helpless romantic, a sucker for an action packed both, and this has both. I would really recommend it. It really does live up to being a New York best seller.

"Schuyler knew what she had to do now. What she had been preparing for all her life. Every moment with Jack had always come down to this. Always. There was no escape. No happy ending for the two of them. It was time to say good-bye. I love you.
Always. Jack sent. Always and Forever "(332)

“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure.

 I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle.

 But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as h*** don't deserve me at my best.” 

-Marilyn Monroe 

Fam[ily] is fortune ∞

this is my fambam.

my rock.

what keeps me sane.

i am one of those fortunate that has her entire family with her. 

like everything we are not perfect.

  we are a roller coaster of emotions, have our constant ups and downs but at the end of the day we are a unit.

 we over come whatever we have to and have each others backs.

we push each other to be our best 

and together we strive to achieve our goals. 

we are each others support system. 

Family isn't always blood. 

It’s the people in your life who want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are. The ones who would do anything to see you smile, and who love you no matter what.

we click ☮

There are not many people that you can click with

 and when you find those people, you just don't let them go.

what is friendship? where do you find it? 

you don't.

 it is something that's developed between two people or three or more.

it's a bond formed when you instantly click. 

you don't have to be exactly the same or completely different. 

its when two people understand each other and are always there.

they have each others back

its a relationship threw thick and thin.

friendship is when you accept each other for who you are not who society wants you to be.

you can be yourself around that or those people. 

so when you find them  do not let them go. 

we can achieve whatever we set our minds to ★

success is a big thing

it is something we all set our minds too

its what we strive for as human beings

it takes hard work and dedication 

but one day i will reach it

reach my goals 

& achieve my success 

neonatal nurse 

big house 

nice car

& a beautiful family 

in order to succeed you have to fail 

till then will you truly appreciate what you have in front of you 

“This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.” 

― Marilyn Monroe

we live and we learn.

we will fall but all we have to do 

is get back up.

life will throw pillows, stones and everything in between 

we just have to know how to dodge and deal with them each.

follow your heart.

follow your dreams

follow whatever makes you happy (: 

alcohol, parties & a good time..

What is the product? Alcohol: beer, rum and tequila 
The hook? sex appeal and having a good time 
The target audience? i would say young adults and adults 
What else besides the product is being sold and why? being cool and having fun is being sold in these ads. as well as sex appeal and being satisfied. 
 
I thought these ads were fairly interesting because they all have to do with alcohol and they advertise in a similar but different way. Corona and Budweiser are both advertising beer but corona does it in a more fun having way while Budweiser does it more in a sexual manner. Same thing with Jose Cuervo and Cabanas, they both advertise stronger alcohol but come about it in different ways. Corona and Jose Cuervo are both fun having ads and the both have a quote Coronas says "it only gets better" & Jose says "pursue your dreams" while Cabanas and Budweiser have no quotes and use naked models to do the talking. So why is it that they do that? Is it because Corona  and Jose are more popular than the others. Meaning they don't have to advertise that hard? Or maybe they are just advertising to different people? whatever the reason is why is it that partying and sex appeals to every ones better nature? 

❤☮ツ

there is so much to do

& so little time

I've sometimes thought 

is it possible to stop and have it all rewind

the things we do & who we do it with

what we learn what we experiences 

is it fact is it fiction is it just a myth 

before i die i want to
