Ok I added more photos that got emailed in. Plus some additional quotes. I am trying to finish the one with the Oaxaca pictures. This one is proving to be a little harder, becuase I get sad and stop working on it. I need to complete by this weekend though so we'll see. Enjoy this one and let me know what you think, hope you like it.
Melissa, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! Thanks so much for doing this for our group and for all those who've traveled vicariously with us. You rock! Cheers, Denise
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!!! See my complete profile
Melissa, LOVE IT, LOVE IT, LOVE IT! Thanks so much for doing this for our group and for all those who've traveled vicariously with us. You rock! Cheers, Denise
