Advice from my lovely abuelita

I grew up with a very independent and strong Latina grandmother. She came here by herself from Honduras when she was 17 years old. 

If you’re picturing a cute , small, and sweet old lady she’s definitely the first two, but let’s just say all my childhood friends feared her. 

She played no games and took no shit....as a woman coming into my own self I realized I large part of who I am is because of my grandmother. 

But oh is she fabulous!

Cher is her idol, so I grew up with that kinda woman. The kind who won’t leave the house without mascara , blush, or lipstick...she’s extra but she showed me that you gotta flaunt it while you got it. 

So here is some advice I wrote down throughout the years that helped me with many situations in life... I hope it helps you too.

1: Don’t care about what other people are doing, worry about your damn self.  

2: Open your mind, not your legs. A lot of men are full of shit. 

 3: You’re single until there’s a ring on your finger.

4: Money talks, bullshit walks. 

5:  Fuck that shit. 

6:  Don’t tweeze your eyebrows.

7: Take a tequila shot, why would you want to worry about a drink ? Now no one will drug you. 

8: “Whatever I don’t do today, I do tomorrow...who cares ? “

Oh grandma... 

The other day she told me, “ I have always said whatever I wanted to say, but the older I get I realize I can say whatever the fuck I want to say...”

This list might get a little more interesting. 

You are my woman man crush every day grandma 💕
