My life has changed a lot from the last time we seen each other. I had a baby girl, her name is Aaliyah Desiree Montano. Aaliyah was born Jan. 20 2010 she is now 3 months. We live with my mom. I had tried taking a break from school so I can spend time with my daughter and my boyfriend, but then I realized I was gonna need an education in order to raise my baby. My boyfriend is now looking for a job because a baby sure needs lots of things. We should be getting our own apartment some time next month. Then i can give my baby a good home where she can play and be happy.

I had a new baby cousin born this week. My favorite cousin Sandra had a baby boy. It was pretty crazy because we were all expecting a girl and she turned out having a boy. She named him Manuel Alejandro Torres. Too Mexican, huh? He is so adorable. He's got the cutest nose, and the smallest feet. She is excited and so am I.

"Why was it so hard? Through writing, dramatize the hardest thing you've ever had to do."

The hardest thing I ever had to do is to eccept that my grandma has past away. She was very sick when she lived with us. Me and my sister took care of her. She was a cranky women but also filled with joy. When she died I couldn't tell myself what was going on. I keep thinking to myself that it wasn't true that I was just dreaming. But after days go by I realize she wasn't with me anymore. And it was the hardest thing I ever had to do.

THIS I BELIEVE.....

2009-04-21T10:19:00.000-07:00

I believe that family is the only real people I can rely on. Because no matter what happens my family will always be there for me. To me my family is who I can run to. They have shown me that I can trust them for anything I need. Most people seem to count on friends a lot more, but to me they just seem to get me into trouble.

For example my cousin and his friends got into a lot of trouble. Him and his friend fought with people, instead of being good friends like he thought they were they ended up blaming everything on him. When he had to do time for it in prison none of his so called good friends went to visit him. None of them put money out for him or showed any interest in him anymore. He wouldn't even receive a letter from one of them.

When it came to family I can say we were all there for him. It may or may not have been his fault but we loved him. No matter what it was he could count on family. We visited him, we sent him money, wrote to him and gave him all our support he needed. I could see how my family wouldn't care what he did. They were just there for him and showed him how much they cared about him.

I believe in putting my family first before anyone. They are who I can trust no matter happens. Friends just seem to get you into trouble. It is important to put your family first.

Opinion On Barbie dolls

My opinion on Barbie dolls is they are just for girls. They can use them as role models, or it can also be a way to just get together with other little girls and play with their Barbies.
