currently, my pal “insomnia” is visiting me.
it’s been a frequent visitor lately, and i don’t know how I feel about it.
My insomnia somehow motivates me to do some journaling, blogging, or crafting. I mean, usually the lack of sleep is inconvenient especially when you have to wake up early the next morning for school or work but now since I don’t have those responsibilities lined up for me.
Well, at least not for the moment.
I can use the malicious visitor as a positive factor in my life. Get into all the creative habits I once would do on a day to day basis again.
Turn something good into a bad thing, right?
Which is where i find myself right now, inspired to write a blog post while I listen to a response playlist dedicated to angsty college freshman year karla.
Here, on this early Wednesday morning, I find myself looking through my camera roll on my phone.
Something, I don’t do often unless i’m sending a photo to my friends or looking for the screen shot with vital information, usually a pic of a pug.
The curiosity of my camera roll made me realize how there is recent moments that I was able to capture.
An action of attaining a moment physically which is hard for me to incorporate on a daily basis. I usually like to soak in the moment rather than stress over photographing it.

The Walters show at Bottom of The Hill, SF.
Joss, Sarrita, and I went to the show with the idea of standing in a crowd of elderly individuals since it was a Wednesday night show. Yet, the venue was filled with metal heads whom started a mosh pit similar to one that would be at a Tyler the Creator’s shows. The Walters btw have slow songs most of the time, even then, it didn’t stop the metal heads from smashing their heads together including
me.
me.

Goodbye party at Zoe’s, SF.
Zoe decided to throw a small get together with close pals for the last farewells before we all departed our ways for our summer adventures. Honestly, I don’t remember much this night. I do remember trying to keep up with the ping pong ball as it drifted from one side of the table to the other as everyone played beer pong.

A visit to Coit Tower, SF.
Joss, Sarrita, Mia, Jess, and I decided to venture off to the hidden treasures of SF. The highest peak in SF intrigued us to view the beauty which the bay possess. Other people on the peak of this hill intrigued me as well, they all had different reactions to the view which made me realize how some people appreciate nature and others don’t. Well, in this case, the development humans have done to nature by establishing buildings and other architecture.

Mission Library, SF.
Towards the end of the semester, the chicas and I made it a habit to do homework at Tierra Mia in SF. During the long hours of studying, I strolled around the neighborhood where I found the local library. The Mission library had different posters relating to the history of Latinos and the culture. Encouraging me to lose myself in the building to find all the hidden treasures of the latino culture hanging on the walls.
