“oh, come on, no one’s going to judge you.” eva reached across the table, giving koleen’s hand a gentle pat of encouragement, before leaning back in her seat once again. “everyone’s here for the same reason, and it’s a really great way to express yourself. plus, it might help you with your confidence, you know? like, if you can stand up in front of a crowd and speak from the heart, what can’t you do?”

slam poetry wasn’t something she ever thought she’d be into, but eva was determined to live a life of never regretting passing up on an opportunity, and she was surprised to discover just how much she’d enjoyed it. even if she still wasn’t entirely sure she actually did it right. “what if i go first? worst comes to worst, we can embarrass ourselves together, right?”

⋆ ― when eva was thirteen years old, her family immigrated from spain to san diego. she lived there until after high school graduation, when she moved to new york for college. ⋆ ― eva’s first language is spanish, but she is fully fluent in english, and really mostly just speaks spanish when she’s with her family. she regularly has to remind herself to slow down when she talks, as she’s so used to speaking quickly as a child, but she knows that not everyone can always understand her due to her accent. (sidenote: if you’re interested in hearing how she sounds, i recommend checking out this video) ⋆ ― during college, eva was lucky enough to get an internship at paper magazine, where she was then hired as an assistant stylist after graduating. though the hours can be grueling, she loves it, and is very happy with her career. ⋆ ― eva has been referred to as a serial dater, as she has a problem with jumping from relationship to relationship, due to her love of the “honeymoon phase” of dating. once it wears off, she often loses interest, which has caused her to have difficulty with commitment. she loves love, and when she’s in a relationship she is incredibly passionate and gives it her all, but her relationships, for the most part, all tend to rise and fall very quickly. she’s never had one that’s lasted longer than a fling, really, even though she would like to meet her soulmate and settle down one day. for now, though, she’s okay with just having fun, and getting the most out of life. ⋆ ― eva is a little bit obsessed with romance, which is part of why her relationships never tend to work out. growing up, she was always watching romantic movies, reading romantic novels, and listening to love songs. it’s gotten to the point where she now has sort of unrealistic expectations for love, which is why her flings tend to fizzle out so quickly, once the butterflies die down. ⋆ ― despite having her head in the clouds a bit when it comes to romance, eva is generally a pretty easy going person. as long as someone’s nice and respectful towards her, she’ll most likely get along with them. ⋆ ― eva is a major daddy’s girl. as the youngest in her family she was often spoiled by her dad, and she talks to him on the phone at least once a day.
