Mesa Verde Oasis

Hey guys! I'm writing to y'all from Cortez, Colorado this time! If you didn't know, it's the city right next to Mesa Verde. Tomorrow I'm actually going to Mesa Verde, and today the drive was nearly 9 hours... and YES, my doctors did approve of it, so there, I guess I really am doing all right. It's nice to be kind of "away from it all", I left all of the AVM drama back in Denver too. Hey, I don't know if I ever told you guys this but right after the surgery, I could only speak spanish! I have studied spanish in school for a little over 2 years, and I absolutely ADORE the language, and it is SOO much fun to speak it, and I suppose they did something after the surgery that "re-wired" me, and I didnt really speak english anymore, lol. I think that's hilarious! I've started tutoring again so I'm doing homework/schoolwork and everything again (there aren't that many downsides to recovering at all, but when homework is involved... bleah) I have an amazing tutor though, her name is Karen and she knows everything about everything and she's definitely helping me complete the school year. Otherwise I'd be so behind with all of these hospital visits and all. I swear I'm going to graduate high school in time!! '08 baby! So still do speak spanish a ton, but thankfully I do also have the ability to speak english again too. My mom had to translate for my dad and my nurses and stuff, she speaks spanish too. I would so love to someday tour the world, and I'll go to places like spain and mexico! I've also been thinking about maybe translating some jazz tunes into spanish, wouldn't that be cool? Well, stay tuned and come to my next gig and tell me how you like the spanish jazz. :-D Okay, I have to go now, but I've been trying to update my blog semi-fequently and it's so awesome to be able to have an outlet like this to express all of my thoughts and feelings that normallly go a million miles an hour and just pass me by. Thank you everyone for reading!!! Love and hugs,
