Sugar & Spice

this flu that is killing me slowly.

I’ve missed two days of class already. Fuck!

Last week in my community -just a street away from my house- a kid was ‘found’ dead by his mother at 4:00am in his bedroom. This kid was class mate and soccer team mate of my student.

The story is the following: She checked on her kids (who were sleeping on the same bed) before going to sleep at 2am. At 4:00am her daughter wakes her up because her brother is wetting the bed and she can’t sleep. She goes to the bedroom and finds the kid covered in blood BUT doesn’t take him to the hospital until 5:30am where he was pronounced dead. The hospital is 5 minutes away from where we live. At first the scene was ruled as an accidental death but when the autopsy results came back it said that the death was not accidental but provoked. There was no one else in the house and none of the doors or windows were forced. The security booth cameras didn’t reveal anything out the norm and the father is separated from the mom and was nowhere close to the house. So, either she or someone close killed the kid or there is a professional murderer in our community. Oh, and they found a crack pipe and a capsule with some residues in the house.

So sad.

I think an actor died.

and Fridays are a good reason to smile =)

It’s 69 degrees outside. On March. In the middle of the Caribbean.

Depressing.

They couldn’t find any one better than the Jonas Brothers to do this song? Really? REALLY?!?!?!

Holy Christ I’m #1 on the top blogs list. Why am I #1?? I don’t think this has ever happened before or at least that I am aware of.
Please don’t tell me now it’s broken…

So I’m on top of the list and it’s Wednesday. I’m liking this day already. It could be full of possibilities.

We are only 100 days away from the 2010 soccer world cup…
You read that right: ONLY 100 DAYS AWAY!!!!

I’m excited, not as excited as if I had a plane ticket booked for South Africa on June but well sometimes you have to sacrifice eternal happiness for responsibilities. I have been saving money for South Africa 2010 for the past three years, tragically I was offered an internship for the summer and I couldn’t say no. Just couldn’t. So I am just assuming God will reward me big time for this sacrifice.

I had a fairly good weekend, can’t complain.
Then Monday comes and I get phone calls at 8am.
Hate it!!

Went to a surfing contest on Saturday. It was my little sister’s first contest in her new category (15-17). She did great. It was amazing.

I changed the stupid phone, got a cute blackberry now. Here is hoping it won’t give me any problems.
