  • Canada <3

    I am absolutely in love with Canada....what a beautiful country!! I had such a wonderful time in Canada this weekend. 

    It was so fun to support my friends in their CN Tower Climb (Charity event for the United Way). For those of you that don't know, the CN Tower is one of the tallest buildings in the world, they basically climbed 147 floors...thats thousands of stairs!  It was a really fun experience, although I didn't participate I plan to train and do it in April 2011.

    While in Canada I got the opportunity to go to both Cambridge and Toronto, what wonderful cities. So different from the United States. 

    We went to a club on saturday called "This is london" and I have never in my life seen a club like that. We didn't have to make the line (which btw was around the corner) because a friend of ours had a friend who got us in. But there were so many people, models walking a run way, fake snow falling from the ceiling, crazy lights and really really skinny girls (I dont think the youth in Canada eats). Anywho, I almost died when I heard them playing daddy yankee and spanish music...I was so happy!! And we danced all night! I felt like I was 18 again...

    The next morning we ate breakfast at this place called "Cora", which btw has to be the best breakfast place I've been to in a long time. Anyone who goes to Canada should look for Cora ... Plus it was really healthy, lots of fruits and oatmeal...and the pancakes were amazing.

    I was really sad to have to come back to Michigan, but I have decided that after my bar in July of 2011 I am going to go to Italy for a little and then Canada for like a month.

    My dad said I had to go to law school honey, but he never said I had to work! lol

    Sending you all my love!heart

  • The Gossip.

    Okay so Michigan better brace itself! Because this weekend is going to be the BOMB!

    My childhood best friend Raquel and my cousin Darlyne are coming to visit me. If you are friends with me on facebook you've seen the pictures from our cruise vacation in August lol so you know when we get together its DANGEROUS!

    I am so excited to see them I can barely stay still, I am so happy to have them come see where I have lived for the past 3 years. 

    We are going to be staying at the MotorCity Casino in detroit for the night on saturday and we will probably hit up the buffet there and the club after!!! YAY!!!

    Other than that I am just trying to get rid of as many things as possible to make my move back to Miami in December less stressful.

    Okay...drum roll please........now for the GOSSIP!

    People seem to believe nowadays that its alright to talk bad about people and then pretend your friends with them. Recently I came across a situation where I attended an event with some "friends" and at the time I was still dating Albert. Well playing around I playfully smacked his arm for looking at a cheerleader, but it was in total fun. Well now that my relationship with Albert is over and I am single, I had a man who likes me tell me recently that he was scared to date me because those "friends" told him how I had smacked Albert in a jealous fit and that I was a possessive controlling girlfriend. 

    LOL talk about being exaggerated. Luckily I cant blame them because they are cuban and cubans tend to overly dramatic and tragic.

    I wanted to set the record straight that I would never behave like such an animal :) for the love of god!

    In the world of gossip people think its completely acceptable to talk about people behind there backs and not get called out about it and so if you read this and you know I'm talking about you IM SORRY but you should have been a better "friend". Because I never did anything to you, on the contrary I tried to support you all and wished you the best. DONT BE A HYPOCRITE people!

    Other than that I have decided to throw a super fun halloween party at my apartment with my roomie May. We are going to get a keg and just live it up. This is going to be my fourth halloween in Michigan thats crazy to me!!!

    Send all my love to my true friends and the people that really love me, as you guys know it hasn't been an easy time for me. These past three years have been very difficult especially because of law school. But I know things are looking up for me and soon I will be done with school and back next to the people that love me the most.

    xoxo

  • Week 3

    I had such a great weekend in Detroit!! I can't believe I'm going to say this and please don't quote me on this BUT I'm going to miss that city come december. I did a lot of things this weekend including visiting Somerset Collection, Greektown Casino, and Motor City Casino. I also went to the spa in Motor City casino and had a wonderful time relaxing! Something every law student should try!!

    I am also really excited to think I only have 12 weeks left in MICHIGAN!! I can't believe I've lived here for 3 years already, its time to go home!! But before I go home I have to get visitors!! This weekend one of my best friends Raquel and my cousin Darlyne are coming to visit. I am so excited to see them and take them all over Michigan. We are going to have a blast.heart

    Any suggestions of where I should take the girls when they come visit? BESIDES THE WILD BEAVER!!! For those of you who don't know the Wild Beaver is where Lansing's finest hang out, its like coyote ugly where girls dance on the bar. But no offense to those that love the "Beav" but those girls can't dance if their life depended on it. 

     

    I know I haven't posted many pictures on my blog but I am going to add a few soon!!!

    I hope you all have a wonderful week and love you all!!

  • What's new.

    Hi everyone. I just wanted to update you all on my life.heart

    Well I have gotten really excited about yoga and I am going to start doing yoga 3 times a week. My body feels so sore BUT amazing. If anyone wants to join me let me know, they offer free classes too which is really nice!

    Also my friends Diane and Sara gave me a Vegan cook book and I am so excited to cook some of the recipes and I found an awesome grocery store called Better Living in East Lansing.

    So I'm really focusing on my body and health which is really important to me.

    On another note, I am so excited because my best friend from middle school Raquel and my cousin Darlyne are coming to visit me in Lansing in 2 weeks. We have a really fun weekend planned. They are also coming to visit me for Halloween and we are going to dress up as the spice girls. I plan on being sporty spice lol.

    I also have a trip planned to go visit my good friend Jeni in Washington D.C in October. I miss her so much, law school is not the same without your best friend.

    Other than that, I am just really excited about finishing up my last semester of school and moving back to my hometown Miami. But I can't lie I am really stressed out about selling all my furniture. :(

    Betsy and Olive my cats are doing really good and are really fat, they have the funniest personalities and Olive is getting a little smarter which makes her momma very happy. I LOVE MY CATS!

    SENDING ALL MY LOVE TO YOU ALL!!!

  • Making Mistakes.

    Don't you just wish you knew then what you know now? 

    I do! I have made so many mistakes in the past three years and frankly I'm not ashamed to admit it. Perhaps its because I've always had the attitude that what you think of me is none of my business, or maybe its just because I feel like everyone makes mistakes. But the past three years of law school I've made the worse decisions ever. For starters, I've dated all the wrong people (we all know I like the WINNERS!) and at times I've knowingly gone against my better judgment, only to get hurt in the long run. But thats not what this blog entry is about....keep reading...

    The other day I was talking to my little cousin Darlyne and she told me "Geez, I'm so sick of learning lessons." I was so curious about her statement, I asked her what she meant by it and she told me, "I've always hated school, and making mistakes requires you to learn a lesson, and its like having to go to school your whole entire life." At first I laughed. But then I thought about it, wow! My cousin Darlyne is a philosophy, she's mad deep. 

    Your probably reading this thinking Michy's an idiot, and you know what MAYBE I am, but Darlyne is right. Life is all about learning, you learn from your mistakes throughout your entire life. Someone once said, a man's errors are his portraits to self-discovery and I agree. I learn from my mistakes and they shape my life, and who I am. 

    But its important to only focus on your mistakes briefly and this is why --- After cancelling my wedding I realized VERY quickly, that if I continued to feel sorry for myself or focus on this failed engagement that I was filling myself up with grief, regret and depression. I learned that I needed to find a different type of man in my future (I won't publicly diss Albert on this blog because I'm a classy woman--besides all of you hate him anyways :) lol) But seriously, I realized that the important thing to focus on was not repeating my mistakes in the future.

    Oscar Wilde once said "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes." And that is so true. 

    Ultimately it is impossible to not make mistakes throughout our lives, the important thing is to learn from your mistakes and to NOT let yourself repeat them.

    I hope you guys enjoyed my first real blog entry, I won't always talk about serious things, some days I will discuss fashion or current events, other days I might just post pictures of my family or videos-- It just depends on my mood, after all this is MICHYLAND!!! :) Thanks for reading, LETS SNUGGIE!!!
