Melanie is my new partner in crime.
As if I needed any additional help.
I gained so much this summer from
our experience. But one of the most
important things that

I have gained is friendship
from my classmates. So I am going to try
and post some pictures of my classamtes,
over the next couple of days.

I thought I would start with one of my

roomates and fellow
future graduate. We will be taking fall
classes together. Watch out!

Thanks for laughing with me at all

the things that only we find funny.

We WILL grow old together!!!!
I tell you, this all happened to us for a reason. It was not a coincidence. It was fate that led us to this path. Now we are on this one way journey to success together.
I am looking forward to a new semester together. We WILL make it happen and we WIll stay friends till the end.

The only way to look now is forward....

p.s.
In the words of the late TuPac, "Keep your head up!"
(I've been hanging around Abel and his friends a little too much.) LOL

About Me

Name: Melissa Rodriguez
Home: San Antonio, Texas, United States
About Me: New me, not the same one that started out in the begining of the summer. Oaxaca and what I saw here in SA changed me. I use to think I did a lot, volunteer for organizations, chair events. blablabla. But there is sooo much more to do! And i learned not to be afraid. Not that I was scared of things before. But not to be afraid to venture out and ask questions. Or to say NO! And to ask why something can't happen. To be in the middle of all that and not knowing what tomorrow held. Finding out who really loved you when you called home, who was waiting for your call.. maybe my last call, that woke me up to what i want for my life....New me ..braver, more aggressive, and more FOCUS than ever on a GOAL! UPDATE: one goal completed since last updated: i graduating w/ my AA in PR! 2nd goal going to OLLU for my BS. 3rd goal: WE ARE GOING BACK TO OAXACA!!!
