Hiya Goobers

I'm supposed to be studying for Geometry right now, but my brain is in denial so I decided to get my mind off of things for a while.

Currently, my earbuds are blasting Beyonce's Love on Top. I think the first time Fonts ever spoke to me was while he heard me singing it in the stairwell. Oh, memories... :)

Anywho, big things are in store for the next few weeks.

First and foremost, exams have been the actual death of me. I managed to cry only three times (that's a record compared to the usual five hundred). My last exam is tomorrow so yayyyyyyy!

Second of all, part of the crew has some big plans for the next week or so... :) Those of you who actually know me know what I'm talking about haha. It's gonna be amazinggggg!!!

Third of all, more exciting news that I've probably already shoved down your throats for months in advance: IT'S MY MOTHERFLIPPING BIRTHDAY ON FRIDAY HOLY FUCK

I am so super excited in case you haven't noticed :)

I promise I'll try and write as much as I can over break because it'll be the first extended period of free time I'll have had in a while haha

Speaking of which, by the time I go home, it will have been six months since I was last there. I am so ready to go back.

Don't get me wrong, I love my friends and my teachers and school (occasionally :P) but I just really need to go home for a while. I miss it.

I miss my very purple room. I miss my dog. God, I miss Suki. I miss my little munchkin of a brother, Javi. I miss Mami and Papi. I miss home cooked meals. I miss going to the movies. I miss my KEEP OUT sign. I miss the heat. I miss the geckos and lizards and ants and birds and stray cats and butterflies and hurricane season. I miss the smell of rain in the morning and the AC in my room. I miss lady bugs and palm trees. I miss mango and pineapple and guava and passion fruit. I miss avocado sandwiches and merengue and paella and bachata and salsa and neighbors that will party till 4am. I miss Take Out Thursday and doing the dishes. I miss going on Youtube sprees with YD. I miss sleeping in and not caring. I miss my bed. I miss eating food on our marble floor. I miss washing the dirt off my feet after playing barefoot soccer outside. I miss hearing the street venders sing their songs. I miss grocery shopping with my dad. I miss dulce de leche. I miss Abuelo's batidas. I miss opening my fridge and not caring what I eat. I miss experimenting in the kitchen. I miss reggueton and dancing. I miss the art. I miss the music. I miss the language. It's definitely time to go home.

I love you all so so much and to those of you I don't see, I'll miss you :(

I hope you all have a lovely, fantabulous break, guys.

Hasta la proxima!

Much love xoxo

Maya
