I'm back on lj. I'm going to try to keep up with what people are posting. I think that's the main way I can keep in touch with my dear friends. I'll also try to do my fair share of posts ( Read more... )

My horoscope for tomorrow:

The day is won by multiple, smaller choices made wisely, rather than hanging on a single issue, so don't obsess but decide quickly and move right along to the next. This is a great time for currying new acquaintances as the air of intensity makes for strong personal connections and breaks through the barriers of ( Read more... )

-   spent an awesome day with my aunt / mi tía. (It was just the two of us!!!)

I love Puerto Rico. C'est la verité. Tonight I realized that the thing is....I'm happy here. I mean, I'm really, actually happy here. In my head, I told myself that I like being the "Puerto Rican Amy" more than the other Amys. It's interesting. I'm not meaning to neglect Spain.

After the game, the girls I met at dinner were talking to me about Puerto Rico, France, and Spain. :-D Conversations like that remind me of how happy I am for the time I had in France, how much better I feel living in PR than here ( Read more... )

I wish I could go to my room - chambre 812 - in Belle-Beille in Angers. I wish I could be there tonight and not have to get up in the morning. I wouldn't even have to see the daylight. I'm beginning to realize how much is attached to that room, that city, that country. It became my home while my previous home was destroyed without hope for repair ( Read more... )

Wow. It doesn't seem real. And, I feel weird making a post about a celebrity dying, but he's still a person.

yeah....nothing to say.

I think my phone is really gone (a.k.a. stolen). I'm okay with that, though. That means I will get a plan here and cancel with Verizon. Verizon doesn't even have a store here...which means I'm in extended coverage...which means my phone wasn't working how it should have anyway. It's funny, though. When I moved, I was glad I would still have my ( Read more... )
