Happy New year! 2013 is upon us and I am excited! There’s so much to do and plenty of time to do it.
This year I am going to take things slow and will try not to plan out every second of my life. Wish me luck!
The new year always makes people reflect on the past and what the future may hold and thinking about the 12 biggest firsts in your life helps with that.
# 12- Your first kiss- mine happened with this cute cuban boy named Jose. Don’t remember much else about him but boy was he tall dark, handsome and latin š
#11- Your first time- having sex for the first time is something special, kinda wish I waited until I got married, or at least until I was in love. Sex is way too special not to.
#10- Your first drive- I remember the first time I drove Odessa, I felt great and unstoppable. My mom bought me a 1992 Toyota Camry my junior year of college. Took many trips in that car. Hell I still drive her :).
#9-First day of school- I remember my first day of 7th grade in the US. I was scared shitless, didn’t speak english but held my head high and acted as if I had no care in the world. I had to fake that kind of confidence, kids can be cruel to a 5 feet skinny girl from a poor country who doesn’t speak english. The next year I was placed in Honors English from ESL (bitches) š
#8-First dance-I guess I can count prom as my first dance. It was eh…
#7-First Job-my first job out of college happened before I graduated. I was 21 year old working full time as an accountant and taking night classes. Till this day I have no idea how I managed to do so well that semester. Starting work so early before I graduated was big for me. Getting paid a salary and everything š
#6-First vote- I remember the first time I voted in a presidential election. I was 18 and it felt oh so good. My mom, sister and I had just gotten our citizenship and my mom made it a point to make sure that I registered and that I voted right with her. I will forever be thankful for that opportunity.
#5-First love- still waiting for it, haven’t had it yet and since I am no longer working on timelines, it will happen when its meant to.
#4-First year-the first year as a married couple, please see #5
#3-First apartment-I am dying to make this happen, I hope that it will happen sooner rather than later because family sometimes…-_-
#2-First child- I can’t wait to have mini mes! I’ve been having serious baby fever to the point that my friend Sam insists on me hanging out with her daughter “to cure” me lol.
#1 First grand child- after #2 happens and she/he gets siblings. My mom has been dying for me to give her at least one. Unfortunately she is going to have to wait a few more years š
