Un pensamiento en el medio de la noche

Hola!

these past few weeks i have been realizing that im happy in all areas of my life, or content. BUT... i keeping thinking that i need someone to share it with. Dont get me wrong, i love my friends and family, and they have all different parts of my heart, but i still have the piece thats dedicated to one special person. i havent found that person yet but i feel like i meet people that have certain attributes that i want in that certain somebody or they are that certain somebody????? AYYYYYYEEEEEE MIRA!!!! fml

anyways i have talked this through with my close buds ele and jp and they tell me that the person will come along when you least expect it. but i feel like they are taking too long and i need to find entertainment... and that entertainment could get me into trouble.

I feel like i keep getting signs from people but then i over analyze things and then that leads me to thinking that im a pinche loca. but then i realize that im not the only person that feels this way, that other people feel this way too. And so i create connections with other people, people that are also in the search of their "someone". i feel like these people and i start this whole new thing that keeps us not feeling lonely or that we start to forget that missing piece for a little bit... and those are the people that will be really happy for you when you do find that someone.( and they also might be a bit jealous.) so, basically im on the hunt but while im on this hunt, i meet other hunters that are on the same hunt, the hunt to find that special someone. we keep each other company until we find whatever or whoever we are looking for.

To all my hunters out there, i love you all :) and i feel your freaking hunting pains

guidos and mermaids

So, Im posting this even though JP will laugh at me and call me stupid... but he can shut up...
ANYWAY, we just went to pack and save and I SWEAR we saw Ronnie from Jersey Shore, and if it wasn't him i just saw a guido in OAKLAND!!!!
One last thing that topped my night was "JP's quote of the day": "it looks like someone killed a mermaid"

Id like to thank JP for these moments i get to share with him :)

my newest friends

in the first weeks of living in Emeryville... i mean oakland... i have had 2 people enter my vida.
Numero 1 is RJ: he's my Filipino diva :) he let my roomies and i crash at his place when we were house hunting... he thought i was the sweetest girl he met, but he didn't really know me until he decided to tell me that i was the sassiest. puto.
Numero 2 is William: i met him through JP, who btw left him and i in the kitchen talking for hours, and then the same night William and i had our first slumber party!!! he moved 2 weeks ago to Arizona :( but we will reunite again and make fun of JP taking melatonin and hour before he has to go to bed!

i love these two putas and they officially have a piece of my heart <3

hola.

so...most people i know have a blog, and i would always ask myself, psh, WHY??? and then in the last few weeks i realized that people use a blog to share whatever is on their mind, or what they feel or fuck they just post bc they are up at 1am and have nothing to do. SO... guess what, i decided to make one myself :) god im so proud to be an american... im elina, if you didnt know. im kinda out there and i say whats on my mind, sometimes it gets me in trouble (especially with my mami) but you know what... i like it... i feel...hmmm liberated when i do :) liberated...what a nice word.
so back to my blog...or whatever this is... i didnt realize i had to make a blog name, have a freaking url or whatever that chingadera is, but i took it seriously. i researched y todo...aye mira muy chingona right??? hahah no the truth is i didnt want to sound like a dumbass. i wanted something that people would read and it would catch their eye. so TADA i found it! the other side of the mirror. and it took me 5 minutes to figure if i should have spaces in between words or not.
Why did i pick this title...bueno... its a lyric, but when you hear it or read it you start to think, "shit what is on the other side or the mirror?" obviously its oneself staring right back, but its you, its me, you get the idea. we use a mirror to check ourselves out before we leave, to "put our face on", to see what outfit looks best... and what do we do??? we criticize ourselves sometimes good sometimes bad. for me...well its always good...NOT hahaha but you get the idea. a mirror is... a dimension where we loose ourselves..stare at it for a long time and you might be late for work :) but it is. and a blog...it could be the same thing...we loose ourselves in our writing, in our thoughts.
bueno, there it is, mi blog, the name i picked for it, and...yeah thats pretty much it.
hopefully ill keep up with this thing and it wont be another nano puppy or tamugachi. hahaha

hasta pronto,

elina

(ps i really dont want to hear how i dont write in proper format y cosas asi...this is my heart and mind and it has no boundaries, no limitations, y no spell check!!!!)
