I always tell the girls....

“never take it seriously. If you never take it seriously, the you’re always having fun, if you’re always having fun then you can’t get hurt, and if you every get lonely, just go to the record store and visit your friends.” ~Almost Famous.

In Panama’s case, the book shelf, skype, gchat, or la cantina.

Either way, it’s something I’m applying to life in the second year of PC. Dead are the days of getting all worked up over comments my silly lil Ngobe make about me or my work.

Today for example, while asking for a boat to go cruise around in, I got the response, “Joven, you can’t go alone, you’ll sink and drown.” Not true. Swim team since age 5 makes me safer in the water than on land, where I can trip or fall, or get lost in the woods.

Que va….

I’m not taking this warning “NO” as an insult anymore. It’s just their nature and not mine to stress bout. Don’t take the insult seriously; maybe tomorrow they’ll let me go.
