Viviendo en Spanglish

Life is great!! So because it is a joy to be alive I must complain about something, we wouldn't want all the joy to suck the fun out of life!!

Selena




I was 12 years old when she died. For my generation she is the one thing everybody will remember what they were doing when they heard the news. I became obbssed with her music and learning more about her history and the struggle her family went through to achieve so much, has made me in a little way be the way i am now. I learned from watching Selena videos to always smile, I learn from reading about her to always treat people the way you want to be treated and I learned from her music videos to dance cumbia. I used to dance to her music all the time and do personifications of her, sometimes when I'm alone I still do it.

You are definitely right about that, I was a freshman in college and we were returning from Spring Break, South Padre Island. Her last performance was actually in Chicago, she performed there with Bronco. I remember the day of her performance was the day of our departure or else I definitely would've been there. I remember exactly where we were at on the highway when I heard the news on the Spanish station and felt as if the wind was knocked out of me. Very sad. She was such a talented performer.
