1.) You greet the ENTIRE FAMILY with HUGS AND KISSES!

You as soon as that door is opened you see cousins or aunts you haven't seen in years or the neighbor down the street, but regardless you greet them! You get hand cramps from your uncle shaking your hand hard or the smell of perfrume all over you!

2.) When your at the dinner table and some asks, "Y TU NOVIO o Y TU NOVIA?!"


Once everyone is gathered at the dinner table eating food, usually your tia or abuela asks about your relationship status. The older you get, the more frequent older you get, the more frequent this question comes up at the dinner table lol!

3.) Forget the turkey, HELLO HAM!


A Thanksgiving meal for Spanish people usually has some additional changes from the traditional dish such as having pig, rice or beans, and maybe for deserts some flan or other sweets.

4.) When the food is amazng and enjoying the holiday until you hear..

You:


When you getting judged for eating all of the delicious food served!!



5.) Getting on the DANCE FLOOR!


Spanish families love music and know how to get on the dance floor! Music will be blasting that you hear your someone at the party say, "Bachateame mama!!"

6.) Once the celebrations, the PARTY NEVER ENDS!


You are at the holiday party feeling tired and sleepy and you already ate all of the food you can find.. You wish is to go home! Usually your mom or family member gets caught in a conversation by saying, "Vamos ir en 10 minutos!" Those 10 minutes pass into hour and so on etc. that you might as well make yourself lucky!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
