Bad Blogging Bad

I'm such a bad blogger :)

Terrible Terrible Terrible.

Nothing, note even a Word in half a year.

This way I’m going to travel to New York in the year 2689.

In my defense it’s been a lot of things in the middle. Holidays to two different places, starting college, seeing my school friends and new college friends, family, lots of work, and Mad Men. It’s been a lot, and I’m also a bit lazy so that’s my fault.

Back to the blog again, I’m saving my money, working like a pig in “Animal Farm” and still wanting to go to New York in any flight possible. In fact my father and sister are traveling next week there and I’m dying of envy, but on the other hand I’m terribly happy because the are able to do it and really deserve it.

I’ll leave you with the trailer of the movie that makes me want to go to NYC the most J and promise to write back soon

Good Morning Sunshine, The Earth Says Hello!



Hello. I am L. And I am ready for New York.

Ok, that was not enough, but I was actually trying to be a hyp and cool writer- which I obviously am not. I am not even a writer either, I was pretending to be that too. I do like to write, but this is actually my first real try, so I hope it's a good one. I don't know why I even started the blog, but it's really a rather exciting process to write something you don't know by whom it's going to be read or if it is even going to be read- and to write just anything that goes through my mind.
You have probably noticed many mistakes, which I'm not aware of and I kind of have an excuse to that. My first language isn't english, it's actually spanish. I'm from Argentina, born and raised here and living in the same haouse that I grew up in in Buenos Aires. I am 17 years old and I just finished high school. In March I'm starting college here as well and studying advertisement, and quiet frankly I'm terrified. I'm not even sure of what to expect of it, all I know is that I'm scared to death of it, but at the same time I can't wait to start it, live those new experiences, make new friendds and learning about something I enjoy and not some much of stuff that bore me to death.
Anyway too much of myself and too little about the blog. I am ready for New York and I'll tell you why. I don't really have much of a travelling culture, even if I would love to. I've been to the US once, when I was 6 years old, and as you can expect I went to Disney. Then two years ago I spent three months in Germany on an excange programme, which was such an amazing experience in which I grew up so much and learn many many things of life. Having the chance to live outside my country, speaking another language and away from my family was huge and something that I really would love to do again. This time - and the pourpouse of the blog may be this- I want to go to New York. It would be totally different since I wouldn't be with a host family and I'd love to travel also to other places in the US, but would be something that Id do totally b myself,visiting friends who live in there and getting to know for the first time so many places that I've been dreaming of for so long. Every movie or TV show set in New York makes me want to catch a plane and land in the JFK. Actually - and opposed to the title of the blog- in reality I'm not ready for New York. I don't hve the money, the papers, the time -and maybe not even the guts- to go there by myself, but this blog might be an impuse and encourage me to actually fullfill my dream, continue working and saving money, setting a date and get to know the city that never sleeps. I really hope I succed. While I'm here in old Buenos Aires I will daydream about my trip and the city and I invite you to do it with me. :)
