Circa 1985. A force was born.

A sister, daughter, aunt, and friend. A dreamer and a lover of love. Transient.

Loneliness does not come from having no people around you, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to you.

I go through phases. Somedays I feel like the person I’m supposed to be, and then somedays, I turn into no one at all. There is both me and my silhouette. I hope that on the days you find me and all I am are darkened lines, you still are willing to be near me.

Things.

I’ve been trying to write an email for weeks now. It goes from sad, to angry, to too forgiving. Perhaps it’s best that I stay quiet for now.

I don’t remember the last time that I wasn’t stressed. This feels like a whole new territory for me. Contentment is a beautiful thing.

you never really
know someone
until you’ve read
what they write
at 3 am when
loneliness
consumes them
but does not 
destroy them

In positive news, actress Eva Longoria recently graduated with a Master’s degree in Chicano Studies from Cal State Northridge.
from the LATimes:

She titled her thesis “Success STEMS From Diversity: The Value of Latinas in STEM Careers.” “STEM” is an acronym for science, technology, engineering and math. The petite actress also has a bachelor’s of science degree in kinesiology from Texas A&M University, according to IMDB.
Longoria celebrated the happy occasion with none other than her parents, friends and family.
“In my cap and gown with mom and dad! I look like Harry Potter!” she wrote, posting another pic. And friends in the Twitterverse and online were quick to send her congrats.

Great job! In case anyone is interested, here are a few extra resources on STEM and diversity:
Latinas in Stem (twitter link)
Fact sheet on Latinas in STEM (published in Dec 2008)
The Center for STEM Diversity at Tuft University

Something always makes me happy when I see celebs of color going back to further their education.
