This is me, a little over a year ago, at Harvard. A lot can happen over a year… a lot can change.
Little did I know a year ago…
- How many amazing people would walk into my life.
- How many people would walk right out of it.
- How many friendships would turn into something beautiful.
- How many friendships would drift further apart.
- How many times I’d say too much.
- How many times I wouldn’t say enough.
- How many walls I’d let down.
- How many walls I’d still keep up.
- How many times God would close doors.
- How many times God busted Heaven’s doors open.
- How many times I’d doubt my faith.
- How many times I couldn’t be more sure of it.
- How many times I made people proud.
- How many times I let people down.
- How many times I’d get out of my comfort zones.
- How many times I’d change my mind about my future.
- How many tears I’d cry.
- How many laughs I’d share.
- How many smiles I’d flash.
- How many hugs I’d give.
- How many lives I’d impact.
- How many lives would impact me.

Country Cuban
Ileana Ortiz (a.k.a. Country Cuban) is the Director of Online Communities at Flamingo Road Church. She is a Jesus lover, people lover, and a world changer. Her family has seriously impacted the way she lives her life. She gets her sense of humor and passion for helping others, from her mom. She gets her business sense and realistic expectations from her dad. She wishes she could match the game of her little sister, because her little sister has had more boyfriends in her 7 year life span, than Ileana has ever met, in her 17 years of living. She loves to think of herself as a comedian, and hopes that people are laughing with her, not at her. She is constantly being mistaken for celebrities such as Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Penelope Cruz, Jessica Alba, Beyonce, Taylor Swift, and Angelina Jolie. She also happens to enjoy reading, writing, some good country music, all things tech, and when autumn rolls around.... a frothy Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks! I guess you could just say that she is your average 17 year old.. well.. not really.

Friend bought me season 2 of my favorite show, "October Road." No reason, she bought it just because. Her kind act has really touched me. [#]

Wow, what a year. I know for me, it’s been truly awesome to be able to see how much you’ve grown & how much God has used you. God surely has GREAT plans for you…..and the best is yet to come! Looking forward to seeing you blossom even more!
