"Look in my bed, I'm bound to be sleeping. I'm lying there dead but breathing"

Ely Guerra in Chicago

2007-02-22T02:41:44Z

Ely was amazing, to say the least. It was a private event and she performed about 14 songs. After the performance, we were able to meet her. She was very nice and attentive to everyone. I LOVE you Ely.

I had a great time at the concert. Belanova is just awesome! I really admire people who are passionate about what they do. Denise is just amazing. My next concert: La Oreja de Van Gogh.

All about Viva Chicago and lots of pictures

2006-08-27T22:50:02Z

As I mentioned on my previous post, I attended the annual Viva Chicago Festival. I was uncertain whether I was going this year because they had forecasted rain and I didn’t have anyone to go with. Needless to say, I found someone to go with me and it didn’t rain, at least not when we were there. I know a few people from the radio station, so as soon as I arrived I started mingling and catching up. We were the first ones to take pictures with all the guest celebrities and I really had an awesome time. To my surprise, Miranda, a pop group from Argentina, who are becoming really famous in Mexico, performed. It was surprising because they were not in the program for this year. They were really nice yet very peculiar. They looked very flamboyant but I couldn’t tell if it was part of their act or if they are indeed gay. I also met Morrison (have no clue who he is), Dj Kane, Miranda and Anais. The only person I really wanted to meet was Anais. I really like her style and music. She was very nice and even though she did not arrive on time for her autograph session (it was postponed until after her performance) she did not leave until everyone got an autograph at least that is what I was told. She was there for more than an hour and the line was huge; it was the longest line for any of the performers. Fortunately, as I mentioned, I was one of the first ones for the entire meet and greets. I wanted to avoid what occurred last year. As I was in line, waiting patiently, to meet Fey, there were only about 2 people ahead of me when she had to leave. I’m posting some of the pictures I took. Some of them are too close up. I really hate posting those but I promised to share. I also took some of our city. I really liked those city pictures because they look like generic backgrounds. Enjoy!

Back from Mexico

2006-08-20T07:00:45Z

I returned from Mexico, Friday evening. Our flight was delayed an hour because of all the new security measures. I hate turbulence because I get nervous, but fortunately our flight was quite smooth. I really enjoyed Mexico. It is just so different and so much more relaxing, at least when you are on vacation. My mom is from a small town in Zacatecas and there is just so much peace and quite. Life is less hectic.

During my two weeks and a half, I was oblivious to the media, current events and my surroundings. I can honestly say I really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I am back to reality. I will post pictures soon. I did some shopping. I bought assorted handmade bracelets, a pair of shoes, 3 belts, and lots of cd’s and DVD’s; some of them original and some not. You can actually get about 3 to 4 movies in one DVD. I also got some mp3 CD's. Here is a list of the movies I got and CD’s:

DVD’s

Rebeldes Del Mal
Dame tu Cuerpo
Asesino en Serio
Goal!
NOVO
La Vida sin mi
Temporada de Patos
Matando Cabos
American Visa
La Mujer de mi hermano
El Segundo Aire
0 y van 4
Ladies Night
Cicatrices
Mi Verdad
Mp3’s and CD’s

Jenni Rivera
Yuri y Mijares
Rocio Durcal
Las 3 grandes (Ana Gabriel, Marisela, y Rocio Durcal)
Lo mas reciente del pop vol. 2 (RBD, Belanova, Miranda, Coti, Reyli, La 5a Estacion, Reik, Natalia, Reyli)
Alejandra Guzman (Indeleble)
Gloria Trevi (La Trayectoria)
Los Mejores Duetos
Reik Sesion Metroploitana
Alicia Villarael
Reik (session metropolitan)

I know I got a lot of bracer music but most of it is music I would not purchase but rather burn off someone.

Howdy from Mexico!!!

2006-08-08T20:08:02Z

Hey guys, I am currently in Zacatecas. Just relaxing, to be honest. I hope everyone is well. It has been raining daily; but quite frankly, I prefer this weather than Chicago´s. TTYL! I would post pictures but I forgot my usb cord.

going away

2006-08-01T04:35:12Z

I leave for Mexico, Wednesday morning. I'm so excited, I have not been there in 3 years. I'll take lots of pictures.

Wine over Water?

2006-06-07T21:36:58Z

WATER...... It has been scientifically proven that if we drink
1 liter of water each day, at the end of the year we would have
absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia Coli bacteria found
in feces, in other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop!

However, we do not run that risk when drinking wine (or rum,
whiskey, vodka, beer or other liquors) because alcohol has
to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and
fermenting.

WATER = POOP
WINE = HEALTH

Free yourself of POOP, drink WINE!!!

It is better to drink wine and talk shit than to drink water
and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information!
I am doing it as a public service.

Cheers!

finally graduating.

2006-05-14T03:28:52Z

So I'm finally graduating tomorrow. I'm very excited and content. I'll take lost of pictures and post them soon.

R.I.P Soraya (1969-2006)

2006-05-11T00:08:39Z

I was in total disbelief when I found out Soraya had passed away this morning. I'm sure most people were because most of her fans thought she had recovered from breast cancer. However, she never disclosed that her cancer had returned. It is a very sad day because we lost a very talented writer and singer. Soraya you will be missed.

I tried scanning the pictures of both times I met her, but my scanner was not working. Here is a picture from the last time she was in Chicago, during the VIVA Fest.

I took this picture on Saturday. I don't want to sound pretentious but I really like it.

What do you think?

Eduardo Capetillo, Bibi and others

2006-05-08T03:38:34Z

I met up with Joe (Bomitoni) and his boyfriend and Douglas Park for a Cinco de Mayo festival. They had a series special guest: Eduardo Capetillo, Bibi Gaytan, Alex Sirvent and some other actress, who I cannot recall her name, but you could see her on the pictures. I got there late because I could not find a ride. Unfortunately, I was not able to take pictures with anyone but I took pictures of the celebrities on stage. I mostly took pictures of Eduardo because he was closer to the public and was the only one who kept facing and greeting his fans. I was surprised to see, what I assume, is a beer belly. Bibi is beautiful though and there is no way you can tell she had 4 kids and is in her mid 30's. Since there were a lot of people, I was not able to find Joe, until after the presentation. By the time I met up with Joe, he had already called Bibi's attention with the album he had of hers. He was fortunate to get an autograph and a picture, which I'm sure he'll post soon and I'll share. Bibi is absolutely gorgeous and a tad taller than her husband, Eduardo. Here are a few pictures:

Andrea Echeverri pictures from her visit to Chicago

2006-04-29T22:52:41Z

Andrea Echeverri never ceases to surprise me. Her stage presence and the energy she exudes are inexplicable. Her voice literally sounds as if it is off an album. She seriously rocks! I was a tad disappointed because she didn’t sing “Amortiguador,” from her solo album. However, I was able to grab a bundle of carnations she threw to the audience. I’ve never been fond of her wardrobe but I have learned that she wants to be everything but ordinary. Her talent, however, overshadows her choice in clothing. Now I actually look forward to seeing what she is going to wear next. I went to her website and believe she is coming again in August. Yay!

A few pictures from the concert:

I have not updated in soooooooooooo long. I've been quite busy with student teaching but it's almost over and I graduate in May. I had no idea Shakira has a new song out. For those of you who have not heard it, go here:

Gloria Trevi pics at Circuit

2006-02-25T22:32:32Z

I went to Circuit on Thursday for Gloria Trevi’s concert. It was very exciting because I didn't know what to expect, considering that I had never been to any of her concerts. She was awesome but I was a tad disappointed because her performance was short (approx. 40 minutes) but what can I expect when they were only charging $20 to get in. I actually got a VIP ticket, which gave you access to meet her backstage. I have to admit that she looks really good for her age. I can't believe she just had a baby not too long ago. The same promoters are bringing, in the near future, La India, Paulina Rubio as well as Fey. However, the next person to visit Circuit is Pilar Montenegro (March 23rd). I took tons of pictures but I'll only post a few on here. If anyone is interested, I am going to upload them all to Snapfish, and I can send you the link.

This is Gloria and I:

I'll post a few more later because I need to upload them onto photobucket.

YAY!

2006-02-25T22:21:01Z

I am extremely content because I just received the results for an exam I took a month ago and I passed. Now I need to go celebrate. I was exteremly nervous because I was uncertain how I did and thank God it's the last exam I needed to take before obtaining certification and graduating. Therefore,if all goes as planned, I should graduate in May.

pictures from feria de la mujer

2006-02-21T22:07:12Z

Thought I'd share these pictures from "La Feria de la Mujer," two weeks ago in Chicago. It was a lot of fun and I can honestly say it was pure luck, getting to meet these celebrities. Well, we did sneak into the VIP room.

"Get Him Back"

One man, he disappoint me
He give me the gouge and he take my glee
Now every other man I see
Remind me of the one man who disappoint me

But wait till I get him back
He won't have a back to scratch
Yeah, keep turning that chin
And you will see my
Face as I figure how to kill what I cannot catch

So I say, and on I go
To another one to disappoint me so

Next one up, a contemptible snob
He live to put things in their place
He did a commendable job
He put himself so low
He can hardly even look me in the face

O, he made my blood just burn
I flipped so far, I thought that I would not return

But the last one I had who was getting my hopes up
I might've been a little fast to dismiss
I think he let me down, when he didn't disappoint me
He didn't always guess right, but he usually got my gist

So wait till I get him back
I'm gonna bring him home and I'll watch him unpack
Yeah keep turning that chin
And you will see my face is fixed on the one
I'm gonna get back

I'm gonna get him back
I am
I'm gonna get him back
I really am
