We went shoe shopping yesterday and we got Nati these shoes in beige. It's really nice when she gets excited about something. Typically Natalia is very shy and reserved about what she wants to do or what she likes. Whenever she gets excited about anything, be it Taylor Swift or really rad shoes, we try to encourage it. I think I might have been too rough on her when she was little and made fun of her when she liked something I didn't like. It's nice to see that she's opening up now, despite my brattiness.
I also went for a walk on the beach today as a sort of farewell. I was feeling a bit sad that I know other people who are traveling to all the places where I would like to go...and I'm going to be in New Haven. I don't regret my choice of staying in New Haven at all--I'm excited for research and living in the "real world"--but I do feel like I should take advantage of relative freedom and travel while I'm young.
I guess on that note I could let you know the exciting event of today. It was originally the fact that Carlos and I were singing Aerosmith and Lady Gaga during our walk on the beach. Even more exciting than that is the fact that David, driving back from Mayaguez, has crashed my car. Yea, my car. He seems to be fine, but the car isn't. My mom is getting ready right now so we can go fish him out of the situation. Apparently the front of the car is all sunken in--it was raining and the car in front of him stopped (or something...) and David hit the other car. My mom is clearly upset but a lot more worried.
