Love letter to my friends :)

Happy Birthday my loves :)

My friends birthdays got me thinking about a lot. This is part of the last months that I will be living in Vegas. And I hope that I leave Vegas with many loved ones in my heart. I hope that they all know how speacial they are to me and how they have helped me become the person that I love.
Anita has given me words and theories to articulate my pain, fears and loves. She has supported and motivated me to finish my undergraduate degree even when it felt impossible. She has given me the words from Gloria, Cherrie, and Yosso. So that I don't feel so alone.
 Nolito has shown me how to be me even if my jokes don't make sense to everyone. He has given me the courage to speak when I thought my words might not be valued. I owe my Vegas crew my heart because they have taught me to heal, love and to forgive. They are the reasons why I fell in love with activism.
Thank you Anita, Nolo, Joanna, Claudia, Adan, Jasmine, Jose Manuel, Kenia, Maria G, Maria C, Karina, Hugo, Destiny, Jairo, Fatima, Gracie, Justin, Jorina, Jenni, Danielle, and to the many more people who have helped me in developing my self.

Pocas Pero Locas is an even that UCIR does to raise funds and consciousness :) This is our second annual Pocas Pero Locas event! 

Mal Xochil and Rico (me) performed Bird Flu at the Pocas Pero Locas event! It was all Mal Xochil, she had the dance moves and beautiful outfits! I was very thankful to have been able to perform with her :)
