Tengo una pregunta.
¿Porque?
¿Porque me quieres? ¿Porque me ames?
No sé porque.
Y es la pregunta de mi vida,
pero la respuesta que no quiero.

I Won?
Remember that Spanish poem I entered into my school's Spanish writing contest? (Here if you don't know what I'm talking about). Well I won first place in the poetry category. Yeah. I'm kinda shocked and thoroughly excited. It's the first thing I've ever really won. They had a ceremony on Monday night but I didn't go, for various lame reasons (now that I think about it). The only two participants who didn't attend were myself and a guy in my Spanish class who wrote a short story. My Spanish teacher was disappointed :( I wish I had gone but alas, too late now.
I found out I had won something from a girl in my french class yesterday, who herself had won in the speech writing category. Today I went to the Department of Hispanic Studies to collect my prize: a pen, a mug and $40 to the university bookstore. Yea!! Now I can by some mints and sweater.

Loneliness
I decided to enter a Spanish writing competition at my school where you can enter a short story, an essay or a poem. And of course I wrote a poem, because I suck at short stories and the thought of attempting more Spanish grammar than necessary, is not particularly appealing.
I finished my poem on Sunday after thinking about it for the whole weekend. It's called La soledad or Loneliness. It rhymes in Spanish, but not too much in English. The Spanish version is first, and then my English translation (it sounds better in Spanish :P)

La soledad
La soledad
es una oportunidad
para examinar la realidad
de ayer
La soledad
no da racionalidad
pero la claridad
en el mundo
La soledad
es una invisibilidad
y una dualidad
nadie puede ver
La soledad
es la tragedia de edad;
la longevidad
de tiempo
La soledad
es fragilidad;
es la casualidad
de ser.
