There are really no words to express how much this album means to me. I wasn't even interested in music, period, before my friend bought Shakira's first(ish) CD, Pies descalzos, and intrigued me enough to go buy Shakira's next album - the one in this post. It introduced me to the Spanish language, to a different kind of sound, to belly dancing, and to a woman whose music I cannot live without. Every song on this album is incredible. Being a person who is addicted to language and writing, I was additionally thoroughly impressed by the lyrics - even just the crappy online translations that were all I could manage at the time. And the music was just a new, revolutionizing experience for me. It's pretty damn cheesy, but this album initiated the creative exploration of songwriting, singing, dancing and languages - most of which are now a gigantic part of who I am, and define me as me.
So, life is kind of crappy, and it's sad that I had to go to Vancouver for a week to realize how bad (as in messy and dirty) our suite has become. The reason I went to Vancouver in the first place was to see a specialist for depression, and coming back to an overwhelming situation in every way was not helpful. We don't have any money, and I don't want to work during school. If I'm going to focus on my classes and successfully make it through this year then I can't have a job. Plus I want to take a couple activities again, like belly dancing and voice lessons, and that's already probably more than I can handle without having to drop out again. I don't know if they let you get student loans just to help pay for living expenses, but I hope so, because my scholarship barely covers my tuition. Sigh.
There have been new developments in the cat department of my life. It's alot to type, so I'll just send you to my new kitty's page on Catster.com: http://www.catster.com/cats/592813/. He's absolutely adorable and won't let me sleep at night.
