Hey guys, My name is Mauris Lopez but if my name is complicated for you, you can call me by my last. I recently just got back into school after almost two years of being out. I recently become a mom and it’s been the best thing in the world. Don’t get me wrong its been a ride and a lot of changes especially because of the pandemic but  I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world. I was born in the Dominican Republic and came to United States at the age of five. Ive practically been living here all my life, I love to dance and I love music epically my cultures music. I recently just moved to corona queens after living in the Lower East Side for about six years before that I lived in Brooklyn. As of now i’m not really doing much but just trying to get myself and my life together trying to find balance. Right now I’m a full time mom, a full-time student and full time fiancé. I was really nervous and anxious about starting college again after being out for so long, but I took the leap of faith and I did what I had to do to pull through and come back to college. I am very proud of myself.

This Is my world. My baby boy Aiden. He’s my first and I got really lucky, I wanted a boy and I got it. Its been an amazing experience and he has shown me so much he makes better each day. Everything I do is for that boy, I’ve grown and changed so much since my son. Know I understand some of the things my mother use to tell me while growing up, that I’ve lived through with my son. My son has mad me value my mother so much more I thank god everyday for this blessing. Even though my son wasn’t planned he couldn’t have came eat a better timing. I lost my grandfather the same year my son was born, I was five months pregnant and the day after I found out that my son was going to be a boy my grandfather passed. It was hard but I’m thankful for my family and my son that help me throughout this time.

Hi, My name is Nada. My story started when I was 4 years old.  My parents decided to move to the states in hopes of a better life for our family. We’ve been living in Brooklyn, NY ever since. Since high school, I knew that I wanted to work in a hospital. Even though I spent most of my childhood in hospitals which should result in me hating them, I want to help people the same way I was helped.  This is why my major is Nursing. My favorite hobby would have to be painting. (I’m not any good at it but I love doing it ). One of the many things I enjoy most is romanticizing my life through videos. I love making videos of little things happening around me and living in the moment.

This is a photo of my cat, Luna. I got Luna 6 months ago after a whole lot of begging. My mom did not approve of Luna at first, neither did my dad. when I first got her, I hid her from my parents for a week. She stayed in my room until one night she was being fussy and meowing. She woke my parents up and I was caught. They love her more than me now. She hates affection but the cute aggression in me kicks her in the butt sometimes.
