I´m Getting Old...

Honestly..I dont even have a song thought out for an entry in a blog that I haven´t written in for over a year. So Sue me.

Fact of the matter is...I wanted to write, because..I´m getting old.

I know..I know..it sounds so tragic, as if I just turned 95 or something..but bear with me here..There is no longer this bright golden sheen to my complexion, when my skin had yet to meet the hazzards of smoking and the shadows under my eyes had not yet joined forces with the dark underworld of insomnia..

...........................Regardless. I still feel young and I will continue to party with the best of them. Maybe not untill 4 am. Maybe just untill 2.

OK so hypothetically speaking..Im an adult now..right? I no longer have the safe warm blanket of college around my shoulders to excuse my late nights and reckless behaviour. I can no longer say..Hey I can do that..I´m in college, its allowed. Thats what all americans say to make ourselves feel better about the Boys and Girls Gone Wild episodes of our lives.

ITS OVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now What? The only song I can come up with which is appropriate and fuck, it even makes me a bit nostalgic given the direction this post took on:

Happy Birthday TO Me..
Happy Birthday To Me..
Im getting to be an old crazy fart reaching a pre mid life crisis.......
Happy Birthday To ME!!!!

Woman, just think of age as wine...
nah, lame excuse! but what can i do?

we are getting old woman! :(

But we are "grown ups" now... and grown to the sides also :| ours hips, our "belly" our arms are growing also :|

Man, this is depressing! HAPPY BDAY MIAMOL!! Dios te Bendiga! :P

Y para finalizar...

Once a year we celebrate,
With stupid hats and plastic plates,
The fact that you were able to make
Another trip around the sun.
And the whole clan gathers ‘round,
And gifts and laughter do abound.
And we let out a joyful sound
And sing that stupid song.

Happy birthday!
Now you’re one year older.
Happy birthday!
Your life still isn’t over.
Happy birthday!
You did not accomplish much.
But you didn’t die this year, I guess that’s good enough.

So let’s drink to your fading health,
And hope you don’t remind yourself,
Your chance of finding fame and wealth,
Decrease with every year.
‘Cause if you feel you’re doing laps,
And eating food and taking naps,
And hoping that someday perhaps
Your life may hold some cheer.

Happy birthday!
What have you done that matters?
Happy birthday!
You’re starting to get fatter.
Happy birthday!
It’s downhill from now on.
Try not to remind yourself your best years are all gone.

If cryogenics were all free,
Then you could live like Walt Disney.
And live for all eternity,
inside a block of ice.
But instead your time is set.
This is the only life you get.
And though it hasn’t ended yet,
Sometimes you wish it might.

Happy birthday!
You wish you had more money.
Happy birthday!
Your life’s so sad it’s funny.
Happy birthday!
How much more can you take?
But your friends are hungry, so just cut the stupid cake.

Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Dear… [names]

well, even though is a fact you're getting older.. remember: we all are :(..[so, you're not alone in this one pal] and guess what? you have the choice to change your tragic vision of birthdays and instead of thinking how ugly you're gonna look a few years later, you can keep celebrating all the great and not that great, the crazy and the bad, [really bad] things you've done all over this 22? 23?
at the end, it only matters if you ENJOYED YOURSELF. Good or not that good! who cares! Just keep focus on what you want and go for it!

Take everyday as it comes! as you've done by now, i asume :P. You will surely find some joy in everything you do, cause you are GABRIELA! That's what you do! That's how you are :P

I dont quite know how different you were before.. but im quite sure you've change! for good! your spirit and your energy, makes you a VIBRANT women.

MAnten tu ONDA NARANJA all the years of your life.. and do the the things you wont regret at 95! Enjoy every breath, every shadow under your eyes, every smoke [until you QUIT SMOKING, cause i want you to live LONGER], every arruga, every humo! cause everything you do, makes YOU.
I do love you too :D
dont goo :(.


OH! best part:
You've done this year, the best thing you'll ever done jijiji!.

You've been an inspiration to me! To be Liberal, to stand out, to EXpress myself all the time, to ENJOY the pleasures of life and the pleasures of the body.. to BE UNIQUE IN MY OWN STYLE NOT GIVING A SHIT WHAT SOMEONE MIGHT THINK AND LETTING MY LIFE BEING STOPPED, BECAUSE OF NOBODY. For reminding me that I AM ME AND MY CIRCMUNSTANCES. :D.
SO THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU.. y transmitir todo tu hedonismo :S TQ. once again.
