“The great blessings of mankind are within us and within our reach; but we shut our eyes and, like people in the dark, we fall foul upon the very thing we search for, without finding it.”~Seneca~ Buenos Dias my fellow SoLas. I attended my computer class this morning and decided to share with the professor the link to my blog here on SoLatina. I sent him a message through the blog site we are connected to and proceeded with my assignment. … Read more →
“Sorrows Of Happiness” (Saretha's Blog)
“Sorrows do not last forever when we are journeying toward the thing we have always wanted!” Bendiciones, My Fellow SoLas. I have been so caught up with family, school, Girl Scouts, and personal problems that I have neglected my blog. Forgive the distance and thank you for having me back! I sure have missed blogging!

Better Than Good Enough (Krystle’s Blog #9)
Hey everyone! I know it’s been a awhile but I’ve had a very stressful November. I applied to colleges, for scholarships and have been writing various essays for different classes, including my ‘College NOW!’ class. I want to pose the following question: does anyone know of any good tips on how to lose weight (and keep it off)? I used to weigh 200 pounds until I dropped 45 pounds due to daily exercise and dieting. After losing that I felt on … Read more →
An Inspired Latina (Saretha’s Blog #10)
“The source of love is deep in us. One word, action, or thought can reduce another’s suffering and bring joy!” ~Thich Nhat Hanh~ Today in my Introduction to Humanities class (colloquium- it’s a group that assist you in bringing out your interpersonal skills) my facilitator states that she wants us to participate in an exercise. She wanted us to pick a person from the group who we wanted to hear more from. She begins by asking me. Unsure of my response … Read more →
A Common Ground (Kassy’s Blog #1)

Chica Chelle (Michelle’s Blog #1)

An Inspired Latina (Saretha’s Blog #4)
“Negative emotions can transform into negative habits. Break the cycle by Learning to understand why you react as you do.” I have a class in college with a girl who I knew from high school and we didn’t get along back then. The first time I saw her I immediately recognized her but didn’t say a word to her. The next time I seen her in class there was an incident with the teacher and for some reason she left the … Read more →

Better Than Good Enough (Krystels’ Blog #8)
Hey I haven’t written in some time. Been busy with school. Applying for colleges! Just wanted to know how many people out here either have kids in high school or are in high school.
