Isles of Capri


This past summer I traveled to Italy with my mother, sister and aunt. We flew out of JFK and landed in the heart of Rome. We stayed in a beautiful hotel that had balconies that overlooked the busy city. We took day trips to different parts of Italy everyday, we were always on the run! One of my most favorite parts we traveled to was the Isles of Capri. This part of Italy was breathtaking, it was the most gorgeous place I could ever dream of, let alone actually be there. The ocean was a blueish green color and you could see the ocean floor about 10 feet down. I sat on the beach all day,as the Mediterranean waves hit the rocks I was hit with a refreshing splash. The beach was made up of all rocks, I felt the sun glistening off of my body and thought how lucky I was to be there. This was truly an experience of a lifetime and I am blessed that I have experienced it. I wish I could live there!

In the fall...


I love the fall.Watching leaves fall to the floor for a new beginning is a perfect way to start off the new year for school. I love the fall because my birthday is in the fall. I also love the fall because of Halloween,my favorite holiday. I love going to the country in the fall because the leaves are beautiful colors orange brown and red. The air smells so crisp in the fall. Since I was young every year fall has been the best time of year for me. I like to go up to my Grandmothers house in the Pocono mountains and go horse back riding. I also like going apple and pumpkin picking. The clothes in the fall are also great because you can wear boots and a light jacket and I love that look. I can't imagine living in a place like Florida where there is no fall, how boring. New York is amazing in the autum!

Never want to grow up!

I have recently had the pleasure to spend the day with and babysit my little cousins, Justine, 6 years old and Jaclyn, 3 years old. Both little girls reminded me that the world isn't so serious, that everyday is a blessing and that you shouldn't take the litte things for granted. As I spent the day with them, I studied and learned how beautiful it is to be a child. Being that young makes everything seem so pleasant. I watched Justine and Jaclyn pick flowers, play dress up and play with their dolls pretending to be mothers. When you're a child the simplest things make you happy and you appreciate life more. As people get older they lose the bliss for the little things in life and you don't see how you had to learn to walk, talk, eat and do anything by yourself. The little things in life such as picking flowers is what most of this world is missing. The appreciation of the earth we live on and admiration of the beauty of it is missing in this world. Remember when you were younger and you saw a rainbow? You were automatically amazed at how it had appeared. Now when you see a rainbow, you look at it for 5 seconds and run back into your crazy hectic world. Being around children made me realize that at one point of my life I actually was amazed by the little things. What I still don't understand is why little girls want to grow up. Playing dolls pretending to be mothers was the most fun, well for me it was and watching my little cousins play I assume it is for them as well. Taking on responsibilities is something no one wants however; being a little girl helping set the table and doing chores is fun. I am now appreciating the feeling of being young and never want to grow up!

My life in the eyes of the stars*

I'm first going to talk about what truly and undeniably makes me happy, because of my sun sign I like to get along with everyone. I like equality,peace and people. I think forming partnerships,being diplomatic and caring about people is the way you should live life and therefore everyone will like you. I care about what people think too much and now know most people know what you are thinking if they have water signs in their charts. I like to match and wear lots of colors. Fashion isn't my main concern in life but I adore clothes and different styles. i am always writing my thoughts down and reading between the lines of things when it comes to people. This is because my mercury is in Scorpio. I am intuitive and can solve mysteries. I also like order and routine due to the fact that my moon is in Virgo. I am searching for a partner because of my sun sign and with Venus in Virgo that means someone who is perfect in my eyes. They must fit into my world and be likeable to my friends and family, who I think is perfect in my own judgment. I am happy when things are done complete and as perfect as they can possibly be. When all of my Virgo demands are fulfilled I feel balanced over all. The need to write down all I learn and what makes me happy are my Scorpio moon tendencies. I want to get to the bottom of my happiness and that also will help me to be good to the world and everyone around me. I hate feeling hopeless, that's the worst feeling in the world. I look to my family for happiness and support. Being alone scares me; I always need a friend by my side. I don't like people who push me to do things I'm not happy doing. I like to do things on my own time. Maybe I am wrong or maybe that annoys people but I can't help it, that's me! I like a job that is not too demanding yet if it is hopefully it is one that I enjoy. Being home everyday is boring to me, I always have to be on the run.
