Real talk – Voz y Vida

Experiencing Life vs. Living Life.

Is it possible to truly experience life and not just live it? I sure as hell don’t know, but I will try.

The Job Search

It’s no secret that searching for work is a job in itself; however, how do you keep yourself from wallowing in a puddle of self-pity and despair after six months? Read on my friend, read on.

Under the Berkeley Skies-Day 40: Lost for words…

Hhhhhiiii, I have not been drinking any of the funny juice this evening, I’m just trying to sound like Ross Gellar from “Friends.” Not sure what I’m talking about?

Under The Berkeley Skies-Day 15: New Year’s Eve!

So I skipped a few days again, getting back from San Diego and the drive back to Berkeley really killed me. My usual drive from LA to Berkeley usually takes me about 5 hours, this time it took me almost 9. Flying is looking much more attractive, the last few road trips to LA have […]

Hello lovelies, I hope you are staying warm wherever you are! I’m currently enjoying 38 degree weather out here in Berkeley. So, unless you live in the East Coast or in the Midwest with snow don’t talk to me about how cold it is where you are, because I might just punch you in the […]

Under The Berkeley Skies: Weekend Mashup!

Weekend Mashup! Hello lovelies, so things have been a little crazy out here in crazy Berzerktown! Because of this I’m mashing up days six, seven and eight. I know not fair, but trust me nothing exciting has really happened, I didn’t get slapped, hitched, or ditched. This might happen a couple of times, I’m doing […]

Under The Berkeley Skies-Day 4: Time to Heal
