Not too long ago, I was writing here to describe my struggle in deciding whether I should continue living in Thailand. It was a place I was very attached to, with it's unique environment, full of different colors, sounds, sights and tastes. A place where people were kind and…

I am currently a new intern with Latinitas and this is my first blog. To formally introduce myself, my name is Jennifer Lopez. Many people think I was named after the famous star, “Jennifer Lopez,” but everything happened by coincidence.

The year I was born, 1993, Jennifer Lopez starred in a television show known as In Living Color. In…

I might have been standing among one-hundred and nineteen other students, but this was different from standing in my own high school junior class. Our crowd was standing in front of the Sacramento Capitol building and even with the vast differences in hometowns and high schools, I felt connected like…
