A gloomy day

Yesterday morning I received the horrible news that my cat had passed away. I've had pets die before but this cat, my cat was something special. He was the first cat that we picked ourselves, that lived inside and gave us all the love he could. He would play with my hair and read books with me, he would even surf the internet with me while sitting on my lap. He brought our family closer and completed our picture.

My family buried him under a big tree in my backyard. Where he can rest peacefully and still be near us. I know that God has a plan and that was my cat's plan to bring joy to our hearts. I know that he is in a better place now chasing bugs and eating catnip, waiting until we meet again.
I love you my dearest kitty, my dearest boy, rest in peace, see you later!

Dear to my heart

I wrote this a month ago just to express what God means to me. It also has a title! :)
Enjoy,

Love in Return

The way you love me,

The warmth in your presence
You don’t know me
But yet you adore me

You died for my life,

You died for my soul,
You gave me something
That I can never return

Since the day I was born,

I was filled with your love
You gave me happiness to enjoy
You gave me pain to endure

You’ve been with me all along,

guiding my steps through triumphs
 and challenges
taught me life lessons to stay strong

I am grateful, I am blessed
I am your child full of grace
I am yours forever
Til the end of time
When the universe subsides
And your love still satisfies

Until we get to meet

Up on heavens streets
Until then, my love for you will
Never cease.

Flowers Galore!

Pictures taken by my previous camera. I'm not a photography expert but I think these pictures are pretty awesome. These were taken my senior year of high school in my art class. My concentration was flowers, mainly sunflowers. I can't wait until I can continue and develop more of my artistic side. Enjoy, more pictures to come later, :)

Look what Inspiration causes..

Today I decided that I wanted to replace my old broken camera for a new one. It's been almost five months that I hadn't been able to take pictures. Not that I took pictures all the time but just having the option was nice. I finally made the decision because lately I have had incredible amount of inspiration to just be creative. I don't know where exactly this is coming from but I want to do something about it.(Plus, also share the pictures on here.) :)

So just in case you are wondering, I will post more of my poems and plenty of pictures. ( Once I get a camera of course.) I may also possibly start drawing again and post some of that too. And with the semester coming to an end I will have a lot of more free time! Yay,

A little piece of cat

I wanted to share the a picture of my beloved cat when he was a little baby. Now he's a teenage cat and wants to be the man(cat) of the house. Isn't he the cutest?

Guess what I found!

So instead of studying for my econ test I decided to look through the files on my computer. I found this neat poem I wrote about a year ago and I would like to share it with yall. I keep re-reading it and it sort of reminds me of Dr. Seuss and the way he wrote his rhymes. Not that I'm comparing myself to him but.. Just read it and tell me what you think, or not, or whatever. :) Enjoy.
p.s. I'm not the best poet but I think I have some poet potential.
p.p.s This poem is also fiction and I don't remember what gave me the inspiration. ( It also doesn't have a title, oops.)

Remember that day,

We were eleven,

Small, young and in love,

We promised we would be,

Together,

Together in center, and in love.

But you left at the age of

Fourteen,

Left me alone, alone to be.

I slept with that sweater

You gave me that last

September.

For years after you left I slept with

That sweater,

That green faded sweater,

The one you gave me,

For my birthday,

Do you remember? You do remember.

That November you left,

You left to that place,

That place far away,

Never to see your face,

You went into the ground.

Buried deeply with no sound,

Buried with love, my love,

So deep in the ground.

For I’m in love still with you,

My love, for I promised you.

That we would be in love,

 Together,

Together,

In center, and for forever.

Recipes

Last month my mother was in the hospital for a few days. This is the first time in my life that I had ever seen her so fragile and delicate. My mother is the type of woman who doesn't let anything bring her down, she is strong, independent and a great rolemodel to me. But to see her in that state destroyed me. Not because she was in that hospital bed but the fact that I could do nothing to soothe her worries. Thank God that she was sent home after five days.
Five days seemed like an eternity. For me at least. The reason for her hospital stay was due to her kidneys "misbehaving" as she had posted on facebook. (My mother had a facebook before anyone I knew, she even conviced me to get one.) The doctor told her that she needed to change her eating habits in order to keep her kidneys healthy. Thus my mother had to cut out all sodium out of her diet. ALL SODIUM! Sodium is in everything we eat, we consume at least twice of the recommended amount of sodium. But of course to keep herself healthy she had to comply with the doctors orders. The thing with that is that it is difficult to find things to eat with out sodium.

And this brings me to the point of this blog:
For mother's day I wanted to make her a "cookbook" a compilation of recipes in a binder. But I am having a rather hard time to finding the recipes that would suit her dietary restrictions. So I ask you the readers, is there any place online that you all might recommend?

If so it would be a GREAT help for me. I would really appreciate it. :)

This is now

Well, here it goes, This is not a blog on anything in particular. It is a matter a fact a blog about my thoughts about life, my perception of reality through my eyes. It is not a school project either it's just something I had wanted to start for awhile.

My home is three hours away from where I live. My home is where my heart and soul is. Along with my family and cute cat that still has no name. The big city life that I grew up in is just a mere memory now for my temporary home is much smaller. My "temporary" home is a busy campus filled with students who are trying to achieve the same goal as me. A place with only one Whataburger( I know sad) and no downtown. It's a change from the big city of San Antonio but I enjoy it.My home of Texas A&M University in College Station.

Aside from being a student and having to study 24/7, I love to read and write. I guess this blog is to practice my writing skills so when I do pursue my career I have something to show. I am really excited actually, I have a place finally to say what I am thinking. And this is just the beginning :)
