The Reason


One night last week my mother asks me if i still write in my journal. I havent written in my journal since 2004. She suggested that i should start again. So i decided to dedicate this whole "Blog" page idea to my parents. Hence the titel, "DacostaMaka".
That is my fathers and mothers name in one. Actually, my mothers name is Monica. But when i was small and couldnt pronounce words like orange juice or mom or Monica...i always took the shortcut, and decided to just call her Maka. Which to me is prettier anyway. My fathers name is oh so exotic, especially for someone coming from the panhandel, redneck part of Florida. His father met some Portuguese dude with the name, and i guess he liked it.
