Mi Vida de Frida Kahlo
Como las barras en mi columna, me duele. Como muchas cirugías antes de la edad de treinta, yo sangro. Como las palabras en mi diario, me reconforta. Como el vestido que lleva bien, el esconde me dolor. Como su odio y la ira y el dolor y la frustración que lo abrazan. Como el amante quien no sabe que quiere, ya lo tengo.

Kenya has been booked!
Kenya has been booked!  This is a somewhat surreal experience for me as it has not quite set in that I will be in the motherland of all motherlands, Kenya, Africa for two glorious, yet tough weeks. Why will we be visiting Africa you may ask? Well let me tell you… A friend and I have decided to volunteer at a children’s orphanage in Nakura, Kenya called the Nyota Home. Many of the...
