My Xv- December

My XV was on December 1st, 2024. It was fun but stressful. There were some things I did not like, one of which was my makeup. I would've rather done my makeup by myself because the makeup did not look good on me. My family said it did, but I did not like it at all. My pictures were okay when you couldn't see my face. I think the best part of my xv was the dancing there were so many people and everyone was super tired of dancing including me. One of the good parts was that I saw a family I hadn't seen in a long time like my cousin who is the same age as me. The last time we saw each other was when we were 4 and recently we've been catching up. I met a lot of families I didn't know I had and found out they are nice and fun to be around. Overall my XV was fun it went off by fast and I miss the day. I think that having an XV is a wonderful experience.

Pico rivera- february

In February I went to Pico Rivera. It was fun because many artists had most of my favorite songs. After that day I lost my voice for a week straight of how much I was singing. My favorite part of the concert was When Luis R Enrique came out. He has most of my favorite corrido songs. I was singing my heart out to those songs. There were a lot of fights too, cause people get drunk, and in Pico Rivera, they have a tradition of throwing beer all over and buckets and everything. Since people are drunk they get mad and they start arguing and fighting. One thing I did not like about it was the prices of the food and drinks we wasted more than $100 ON THREE PEOPLE and we didnt even buy a lot of things it was like 2 drinks and 1 hotdog and chips it was a crazy waste of money. Over all it was pretty fun and i would love to go again but instead of just thye concert i would wanna go to a jaripeo where they have like animals they have bulls and people get on top and ride it. Also Theres a lot of people dancing and i love dancing especially with pro dancers cause they know how to dance really good.

Snow- January

In January I went to the snow, I don't remember where it was or what date it was but It was fun. I went with my mom my dad and my brother, my dad tried climbing up to the top, and me and my mom were scared he was going to fall because we did not come prepared for anything we just went with winter clothes. At first, it didn't feel like it was that cold but after a while,e it got super cold. I went again in February but it wasn't cold at all, but the time that I went in January I remember getting picked up early from school to go, Now that I think about it I feel like if I were to ask my mom to pick me up to go somewhere and have fun she would say no. But that day she just never told me she wanted to pick me up, so I was confused. After I got picked up from school we went home so I could leave my stuff and change into something more covered. After the snow, we came home and we almost got trapped in the snow but we didn't.

Mexico-June

In June 1st i went to mexico like every single summer, i love going to Mexico it is my favorite place in the whole world. The first week that i was there i did not go out i think that all i did was just stay at my grandmas house. After that week all i would do everyday is go out with my cousin and we would have so much fun. Throught the summer i met a lot of people and i made a lot of friends, i also met a guy but we both weren't ready for anything, it was cute at the beginning but we realized we just weren't ready. We still talk as really good friends. I also spent a lot of time with my niece the one in the picture, me and her are inseparable and soon she is having a baby brother. I love love my niece because even tho she is really messy and doesn't listen i think that she is super cute and i would want to see her everyday. I Also went to a lot of parties with my cousins because the summer is when they have the most parties. We also went to the lake a couple of times, and there wasn't a day where me and my favorite cousin would take my niece to get ice cream. I love love going to Mexico even if when it rains we dotn have signal or light or sometimes it just goes out of nowhere and it is really really hot, we still manage to survive.

My birthday- August

On August 31st I had my birthday party, it was really fun because all the people I cared about were there. There are more people that care about that weren't there because they are all in Mexico but I still think they are really important people in my life. My birthday was pretty fun I think that it was better than last year because I really enjoyed it and my best friends that I hadn't seen for a long time were there and my mom and my dad of course on the morning of my birthday I woke up around 11:00 because I was exhausted from last night and like at 2:00 p.m. I started getting ready I took a shower did my makeup and my hair and got dressed. By the time I was ready, everything was prepared outside by my mom and my aunt my mom was also making food and she was making my favorite food so it was just a good day the night I went outside where it was decorated and they sing Happy Birthday to me with the cake and I open my gifts which was the things that I wanted and I was so grateful and I still am for everything that my mom got me that day

Party/halloween - october

On October 19th I went to a birthday party with one of my friends it was fun because I hadn't seen her in a long time. We were just talking we got there at the same time because I had picked her up to go to the party and after we just went and sat down we ate we danced and we did a lot of fun stuff with our other friend whose party it was. On October 31st which was Halloween I got dressed up well and only did my makeup as the Joker to go to school I think I did a good job on my makeup and I liked it later that day my friend texted me that if I wanted to go to her house and spend Halloween over there watching scary movies eating and talking and I said yes because honestly I didn't want to go trick or treating because I had a bad experience and bad memories of last year's October 31st so I just didn't want to remember whatever happened last year when I went to her house I still had my makeup on it was fun we started by watching movies I took some snacks and we ate her sister had a client because she is a nail tech and we had to stop the movie but it was okay because we were just talking after the client left we continue to watch the movie and her sister made us some pancakes and some churros they were really good but since they had a really fluffy dog I think I had an allergic reaction to that because my nose was stuffed I couldn't smell or taste anything and I knew I wasn't sick so I just stopped eating because I I wasn't tasting anything so there was just no point of me eating after we just started talking taking pictures taking tik toks it was really fun I really had a fun time with her.
