Selena Quintanilla-Pérez

She was an artist that my sister really loved. I remember her listening to her, although it is a bit fuzzy. She had taught herself Spanish being around Spanish speaking people a lot of her life. She was amazing thatvway because she was actually pretty fluent in the language. It was almost as good as her English was.

Lately I have been listening to her music as if this would bring my sister to me. It was an artist that I have heard through her and I am not fluent in Spanish; I don't even know what most of her songs are about. I just find myself thinking of my sister. It is either her or Avenged Sevenfold. I wish my sister was here so that we could listen to her together. I would ask her what the song meant and she would have told me. She was my translator.

I miss her but I'm taking it one day at a time, although there are so many things that reminds me of her. Anyways I love Selena, and the movie with Jennifer Lopez. She met an untimely death and maybe that is why I keep going back to her because it is like my sister. I don't know but maybe, just maybe I will become fluent in Spanish. I think I would feel like I had a piece of my sister with me.
