Values.

One thing I value is music. I'm sure a lot of people wrote about music, but that is okay because music is just that great, flexible in ways. Music to me is what I need when I need it. It has been that missing parent, best friend, and whatever else my life was missing. It has been my refuge, my safe place, a haven and welcomed me with open arms. Music offers comfort in the fact that it can stay the same when you need it or change when you need it. There's songs that have stayed my favorites and they were released before I was even born! If there's ever a specific song I want to hear at one time I can find it and listen to it on repeat for hours, music is unlimited. If I'm searching for new sounds I can always find those, too. I love music.

Fun summer.

One of the most fun things I did over the summer of 2012 was my birthday. This year I turned 15 and since I am Hispanic (puerto rican to be exact) there was a lot of fuss. A lot of Hispanics believe that 15 is the age a girl becomes a young woman and they celebrate it with something called a quinceƱera.

My quince was nerverackingly-exciting. It was exactly on my birthday, July 15. All my closest family and friends were there to celebrate my coming-of-age. I had to wear and poofy dress which made me feel beautifully out of my element. Usually you will catch me in in skinny jeans, a hoodie, and fly kicks but I was wearing the dress, jewelry and heels! I thought I was going to cry walking down the aisle but I held it together. The ceremony was very detailed and beautiful and gooey and stuff. But the reception? I don't remember the last time I partied so hard. That was the most fun I had in a while. My birthday was one of the not fun things I did this summer, as usual

>:(

Where was this app when I needed it last night?

My Name

Lanae. Lanae Lanae Lanae. It means light. In the Bible, it says "You are the light of this world" and, "Be the salt and light." I think that means that I am obligated to be nice and positive. Brighten up people's days. Be a ray of sunshine, so to speak.

When I was younger I really did not like my name. It seemed so hard for every one else to pronounce, when it is only two syllables. It was always mis-spelled and it only has five letters. Life seemed like it would be easier if I had a more common name. I disliked my  name so much, I told my mother that I was going to change it to Reese Cup. given i was around four years old, I had my heart set on that name. As I got older, I began to embrace, and later appreciate, having a unique name.

When I meet someone with the same name as me, even though it may be spelled differently, I find myself treating them with a sort of asperity becouse I feel like I'm the ONLY Lanae in the world and the fact that I'm not, makes me doleful. I guess I just don't have people skills let alone are they in my repertoire because I can't even act like I do..

#1 rule

My number 1 rule is: You reap what you sow. If you put positive energy out there, you get positive results.If you speak negatively over something, you will recieve the consequences. Simple and plain. Stay as positive as you can and you will will ultimately be happier. Stay blessed ;D
