My name is Rafael. I like learning about new things. I'm a hard worker only when I'm not lazy and a quick thinker at times. And I'm annoying when I'm passionate about something.

Rafa's Cramming and its Side Effects
Very haughtily, I would believe that two days of studying would be
enough for me to get a good grade for said test. I would believe
myself to be astute, thinking I could cram in all the information just
in time to take the test, get a good grade and act like a total
braggart for the rest of the week. But, as always, the consequences of my mistake were inevitable. As a result of my obsolete cramming session, I only remembered the easy topics, but couldn't remember the subjects that take time to learn. From this last experience, I learned to be more conscientious about my study habits.

Rafa, The Medium: Conversation With Don Salvador
Conversation with dead family member Don Salvador.
Me: I never understood. What are you in my family? Are you my uncle or something?
Don: I am your aunts stepather. Or was.
Me: Oh ok. Well I miss you. Even though the holidays were filled with animosity, the best Christmas present I ever got was when you said I was a good kid.
Don: Don’t mention it. And I mean’t it, don’t you forget it.
Me: I’ll try. You know, you’re really well spoken without that stuttering of yours.
Don: One of the few benefits of being dead. Everything that used to hold me down doesn’t anymore.
Me: It must be a relief being released from the burden of your wheelchair. Say, can you run in the afterlife?
Don: You never run. You just stay. You just are.
Me: That’s interesting.
Don: Somewhat. You never do anything but meddle into peoples lives
Me: Doesn’t that mean you’re in limbo?
Don: No, it just means there’s certain issues with my loved ones that keep me from “going into the light”.
Me: Oh. Well good luck with that. By the way, I think ______ has a crush on me and it creeps me out.
Don: Relax. She has a crush on everybody.
Me: Oh great. Not only am I creeped out, but now I feel totally un-special.
Don: You’re welcome.

Camila Featuring Colbie Caillat - Entre tus Alas
When I was informed of this assignment, I really had no clue which song I wanted to talk about. I didn't know what song was "blog post worthy". So what I did was I put my Ipod on shuffle and the first song that came up would be the one I would talk about. And thus, "Entre Tus Alas" by Camila Featuring Colbie Caillat was chosen.
I adore the song “Entre Tus Alas” by Camila featuring Colbie Caillat. The song is carefree and relaxing. It is a love song, but it makes me feel something much more powerful than love. It makes me feel bliss.To me, it represents where I want to be in life. I want to be relaxed and carefree, and I want to live blissfully.
