Getting to know Lucy

My name is Luz (meaning light) , my father named me after my mother because he was madly in love with her , well thats the way I like to think of it . I would rather be called Lucy , seems more me :) . I was born 2/25/92 making me 16 years young . My favorite color is purple (royalty) . I love dancing . singing . writing . food . reading . laughing . joking . smiling . life . friends . family . getting to know others . making new friends . and being myself . The reason I blog is the things that I happen to encounter in life make me feel like I need to let others know about it . Either to impact and change someone elses life or to maybe motivate others . I believe that I can change the world (most likely not the only one who feels this way) but hey I am going to try to do so anyways . I currently live with my mother , older sister , her 2 sons , her daughter , older brother , baby sister , and our 4 dogs . So I encounter plenty of 'family' time . It makes me laugh that people assume that I have so many family members in my house because I am mexican , they have even asked me if we all pile up in a small car (which I find funny and I laugh at the sterotype) . I can just picture what goes through a mind , as if they are sitting enjoying a circus as all these clowns apear from the smallest car ever ! I am proud to say my family owns 2 mini vans :D .

I like to use my humor to explain many things and I am not afraid to speak my mind . I with hold so many flaws , which is perfectly fine because it sets me different from others . I think most of people go wrong when they constantly pointing out flaws in themselves . I know thats were I went wrong . I dislike when others shove my age down my throat . Yes I am young , but I feel so OLD ! How funny , huh ?? That a girl as young as 16 can actually have morals and wisedom ?? If I could have been born in 1920 or The Elizabethean Era , I would have sadly I had no control over that . When I graduate from college I want to major in journalism and minor in dance . I am a carefree spirit and a loving person . I hope I can meet many people like me . Who love to express how they feel , and not afraid of people who are different . I am Lucy perfectly imperfect .
