Okay, so it's been awhile since I've posted on my blog, but I've been very busy with my summer!
Guess what guys? I went skydiving! It was so much fun and the craziest thing I've done so far. I was a tad bit nervous but my mind set was just "Whatever". I have tons of pictures and a dvd. Which I will post up for you guys to see. I went some where in NJ. The cost was about $200 to jump and $130 for pics and video. When I first jumped out of the plane, I felt that "falling" feeling in my tummy after while I was just falling and doing silly stunts in the air. I would most likely do it again. Good times.
As for my musical talent....it hasn't developed just yet! I still haven't gotten a chance to purchase a guitar, but my best friends boyfriend just bought a new Ibanez acoustic nylon stringed guitar for only 100 bucks! Gotta love Brooklyn. When I get a little money I will just have him purchase it for me.
Language: I actually met up with someone who was looking for an English tutor and willing to tutor in Spanish for free. We met a cute little Spanish cafe in Queens but after speaking with him, I realized he spoke great English, he just has an accent and didn't know some words, but he did fine. I was a bit suspect after that because it would end up being the case where I was getting the better end of the deal. We never met again. I figured he was using this as a way to meet people. To each their own. The journey still continues....
GRE: I did fairly well on my exam :) I didn't get the PhD score I so desperately wanted but I did get a good score to get me into a nice masters program. Now I am applying to 4 schools and for a Fulbright Scholarship to do research in the Dominican Republic. My deadlines are in October!
Travel/Vacation: I am off of work for 3 weeks for vacation and I intend to travel! I couldn't make it out of the country, but I am stopping by a few states to visit family and friends. This weekend, Connecticut to hang for a bit. Next week, I wanna go and see my biggest brother, John, in PA and then maybe hop over to Uncle Joey's house in NJ. After that is Virginia Beach to visit my wonderful mother. The last week of my vacation, I'm heading to Miami for Labor Day weekend. I am traveling alone, but sure to meet familiar faces and hopefully new faces out on South Beach. I may even get a bit risky and get a tattoo!
Overall: I am happy, I remember a few months back I said that I wasn't. Something has changed and things are moving forward. Also, my hair is growing so beautifully! Length check at my jawline :D. I'm still having issues with dryness but I've been you tubing and google-ing regimens and I'm actually about to run out to Whole Foods in a few. Time to try something new with my hair.
I hope everyone is doing great as well, until next time. Stay naturally You.
Sweetest Tabu xoxo
