Cielo Azul: Harnessing the Full Potential of our Brain (not just that 10%)*
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2012/01/harnessing-full-potential-of-our-brain.html
Friday, January 6, 2012. Harnessing the Full Potential of our Brain (not just that 10%)*. Remember my post about googling your brain? Oh, you don't? No worries, here you go. I had a similar thought the other night. Anyhow. I was thinking, how cool would it be if I could hit "send"? Like, from my brain. Then I wouldn't have to freak out in the morning and try to remember all those emails I wrote the night before. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. I have a complaint to file.

Cielo Azul: Unplugging.
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2012/04/unplugging.html
Friday, April 13, 2012. Aside from coffee, I've never been addicted to anything. The only time I actually had a cigarette between my lips was as a prop for a White Trash Birthday Bash (and yes, I won the Trailer Park Queen award, a-thank-ya-very-much! And it wasn't even lit. Again, caffeine headaches aside, I didn't know what addiction or withdrawal symptoms felt like. Until this week. Google "technology addiction." Scary stuff out there, people. My cell phone to entertain me, do I? So I told myself no m...

Cielo Azul: February 2012

Monday, February 27, 2012. Charity of the Month: Illuminate International. 8220;Young people are capable of doing widely extraordinary work, their voices should be heard.”. If you’re one of those people who think you can’t make a difference in the world, I hope this Charity of the Month changes your mind. Mike Kang was a freshman in high school when he started a youth activism campaign, which sprouted from a documentary made by Invisible Children. So what does GAGI have to do with Illuminate International.

Friday, January 27, 2012. Discussions on Development: The Right of Indigenous Communities to Hit the Airwaves. I read this article. Today, and it really upset me. So I wanted to share it. What upsets me, is that there are people trying to make things better in Guatemala, people and organizations that go to great lengths to write and promote legislation that would create equality and fairness, and I'm not just talking about this specific issue- this is just one example. This is the exact reason. Why Carlo...

Cielo Azul: August 2011
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 30, 2011. Kimbra was in the last music corner, as a featured artist. But after exploring some of her own stuff, my husband and I think she deserves her very own Music Corner post. Imagine a one-and-a-half year old sitting on Uncle Jeff's lap and shaking his shoulders to this video. It's as adorable as it sounds. The next one is a little slower, but her voice is simply amazing (especially towards the end):. And she's freaking adorable! Friday, August 26, 2011. And so it begins. A change of...

Cielo Azul: March 2012
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. Discussions on Development: Guatemala Land Grab. Was in the news early this week, and this is a response I just came across that I really enjoyed:. Wednesday, March 28, 2012. What must it feel like getting to the capital city for the first time? What do the queqchis [indigenous tribe of Guatemala] think of our shadowless streets, of our grey colored progress, of the smell of shit of our city? Photo caption: "My mother taught me to fight.". Monday, March 26, 2012. What I love about...

Cielo Azul: Finca Cielo Azul has a new home!
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2012/04/finca-cielo-azul-has-new-home.html
Tuesday, April 24, 2012. Finca Cielo Azul has a new home! I've mentioned it a few times before, and I finally did: I moved to wordpress! Seems like it was just in time, since I logged in to write this post and realized the set up on Blogger has changed a bit. I'm sure it's a good thing, but I don't really feel like learning a whole new user interface on here. Anyhow, the blog writing will continue over here. I hope you'll keep reading!

Cielo Azul: March Charity of the Month: Mercy House
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2012/04/march-charity-of-month-mercy-house.html
Monday, April 2, 2012. March Charity of the Month: Mercy House. A couple days late, but here we are! Toward the beginning of March, I volunteered with a small group from the Orange County Bar Association ("OCBA") at the Fullerton Armory, where Mercy House provides emergency shelter for homeless people during the fall and winter months. This year they received some extra funding, so they were able to provide emergency shelter through the month of March. (You can learn all about Mercy House here. I think t...

Cielo Azul: November 2011
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 14, 2011. Charity of the Month: Robin Cheney, aka, 3-day for the Cure. We walk because we must. We are strong because the journey demands it. Together in body and united in spirit we lay down our foot steps for this generation and the next. This is our promise, a world without breast cancer.". It's three days. Of walking. 20 miles a day. That's 60 miles in three days. Like I said: insane madness. Why would someone put themselves through that? What keeps her coming back? From the minute y...

Cielo Azul: July 2011
http://fincacieloazul.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 28, 2011. Things Seen in Orange County: #2 and #3. Older twenties-aged man in the rough streets of Irvine, CA, on a pretty serious looking unicycle. So serious, in fact, that I was relieved to see he was wearing a helmet. This is an old one that Jeff and I recently reminisced about. Twas at the Stadium Brewery in Aliso Viejo, CA (ahem, Cougar Den). Jeff and I were in the bar area waiting to snag a table. Man in his mid thirties-ish, taking up the one long table by the bar area, by himself.
