Six Random Facts About Me, Alis Volat Proplis:

1. I like to eat macaroni and cheese (from the box) when it's thunderstorming (or a rain storm). It's tradition.

2. I used to feel incredibly confident, sure, and driven in my career....I feel like I wasted a lot of money to become a "professional glorified waitress." I am not so sure anymore.

3. One time when I was a little girl I found a frog when I was playing. I used to have these blocks (to build things...such as castles, houses, etc.) that where my father's when he was a little boy. So I decided to build a castle for the frog. I brought the frog in the house and into the living room where the frog was and put him in the "castle." Well the castle had doors and windows. I left the frog in the castle and went off to find something to do. I came back to check on the frog and he was gone. I exclaimed, "OH! The frog left." My Mom (who hates creatures like that....especially in the house) says, "OMG! What frog!!" I told her that I put a frog in his castle and he must've decided to leave. We never found the frog.

4. I really love Charlie Chaplin.

5. I like to drink wine when I am cooking. Especially if I am in pretty or sexy clothing.

6. I can sing opera. Well, I had training, but haven't practiced in a long time. I'd love to get back to singing.


I'm supposed to tag others but I don't have a lot of friends with blogs! :(

Save a Prayer for Me Now

I have to keep remember that I am young and fortunate (semi) these next few months/weeks. I love being with people that I like, but I don't want to live with anyone. I like my time at home after long days at work, that is why I moved out on my own. Living with Rodolfo has been fine and it still is perfect, but now his sister is staying with us. I just need Rodolfo to explain that it is only temporary to her until she finds something else. Her and Juan Carlos have just broken up and he was helping her pay for her apartment. So....yeah. It's been a dramatic break up by the way. She needed to leave him (he had two faces come to find out).

I feel like an old lady this week. I don't want to go out eerynight and I like to be in my house only in bras and panties. I like to have romantic late night dinners with my boyfriend. I don't want people at my house everynight and I don't want to go out every night. I don't want to sound like an old lady, but I feel like that's how I sound. I should just keep my mouth shut maybe. Ugh.

Ooo. Forgot to mention that I did have a lovely time last Friday in Boston with Junior (Rodolfo's new friend who is in love with his sister). We took the train in (which goes fast!) and walked around Boston. We ate at a really bad Chinese restaurant in China Town and walked around some Chinese shops. Then we went to the mall. Crazy mall! We also went to the top of the Prudential Building at night and had a drink at the bar. The view was amazing. Who knew Boston is cool looking at night....a little bit.

I am getting excited for Christmas and going to Virginia with my sister and Rodolfo to visit my Mom and Brother at the new house. I can't wait for Rodolfo to see Virginia. Ay. Also, Allies sister is pregnant! Crazy. So is Darrah's roommate. Who's next? Not I!!

Intersting note: Ever heard of Animusic?? So weird.

Shall We Dance?

I love Spanish music. Not only that. I love dancing to Spanish music. I never have been a big "dancer," but I have leared a lot being with my Spanish boyfriend and his family and friends for a year and a half. Here's what I can dance:


The other night I danced all night to this music. This is music from Mexico and how they dance in the Yucatan. So crazy. Not difficult. Imagine me dancing to this!?


This is Merengue. I really like Merengue because it's a lot of fun. Rodolfo does it really crazy. I wish I could be like he and his sister....


This is my favorite of all, Bachata. This is the music from Rodolfo's country, The Dominican Republic. It's easy for me to do and soooo sexy. I love dancing with older people because it's so much easier and they are so cute. Haha. I'm a dork though. Here's one more Bachata dance:



I clearly can't do it like them. It's obviously advanced. This is more modern Bachata. How do they do that with their legs?

Haha. I love dancing. It's so amazing.

Now....I need to learn Salsa. I can't do it. Period.
