Road Trip to Corpus for Selena Festival

 A few weeks ago, I took a road trip to Corpus Christi to visit the Selena museum and memorial during the Selena "Fiesta De La Flor" festival. Had a fun 2 days with my friends, we laughed a whole lot, visited the grave site, the memorial on Ocean drive and walked through the museum. Seeing all her clothes which didn't look expensive while in glass but on Selena the outfits looked expensive. The many awards she had received while alive, were a sad memory for those visiting that weekend. 

Forever in our hearts!

Selena's hubby releasing a book

Selena's hubby Chris Perez has decided to finally release a book about him and Selena's love life. He says the fans have wanted something like this for years. Some critics wonder whether the timing is right or not, being that the album is being released.  Either way, should be a nice intimate look into their romance. I'd read it.

Selena on the Cristina Show

I grew up in Corpus Christi, not too far from where Selena lived. #TrueStory My mother worked for a local radio station in CC and I remember seeing Selena's phone number on the wall near the front desk. Being the person that I am, I decided to dial the number. Phone rang, A girl answered, I asked..."Can I speak to Selena" mind you I was about 6 or 7 years old... lol anyway her father finally got on the phone and said she wasn't available to speak. I said "thank you" and hung up. I just remember being inspired and obviously looked up to her in some kind of way for the thought to even call her, to come to mind.
