A bunch of celebrations clustered together this spring: within two months there were two music festivals, my friend Momo’s birthday party, and a farewell party for me before I moved to Mexico City. This is a diary of all that fun.
Photos 1-12 are from Festival NRMAL in Monterrey.

17/18 are seriously two of the crazy best photos i have ever seen
17 looks 3D it is so cool!
I love them all!! 17 and 18 are my favorites!
awesome and breath taking! 17 is sooo good!! so many good vibes and energy!
this is so great, it makes me want to live my life at the fullest (not even sure it’s a word..)
great pictures
I LOVE THESE!! I always love all of your photos. It’s so nice to see images of young people leading normal lives in Mexico, since all the U.S. media will show/talk about is the gang/drug violence along the border.
Yeah U.S media can be a little dramatic sometimes
I mean, most of the things are really happening
and that’s very sad, but Mexico is awesome and pretty and I’m happy you like em’ :)
You’re such a babe
Amazing photos btw
Love the photos!!! the 18 is the craziest (and the coolest!!!) You have amazing friends, and you’re really pretty <3 <3
I created a blog to talk about the things I like, so if you want check it out (btw, it's in spanish)
can this be my life
These can’t be real because there’s no way your life could be so damn cool. These are awesome and perfect.
#17 is truly fantastic!
What ISO film are you using, Maria?
I use digital most of the time but with analog lenses
and disposable cameras haha :)
FAVORITE FOREVER
these are just beautiful
I FEEL EXTRA YOUNG
These are all so beautiful, I love them! My favourites are 13 and 14, they’re so pretty! I also love your hair, your bangs are super cute!
I kind of love these. The last one is super awesome.
beautiful! i am so jealous of the sunglasses in #9. i wish there were parties like this where i live :P
Your life seems like so much fun. The photos from the party I had to remind myself were of real people and weren’t staged because it looks sooo cool. Also, the weight loss pants had me LOLing.
MARIA i can’t believe how cool n cute you are
You too, you too ♡ ◕ ‿‿ ◕
I LOVE these! It’s nice to see a normal view of Mexico and average people who live there–as opposed to the impoverished and gang-stricken side we get so often in the media. And your pictures are so PRETTY! Thank you for posting them!
♡
I especially love the composition of the dancing shots! Well done!
Also, the Velvet Underground reference in the title= Perf.
worlds collapsing
hahah wow! I didn’t know about those!
Thank you ◕ ‿‿ ◕

It’s beautiful! I felt like I’ve been there with you. To see photos from places other than US or UK feels like travelling and I always want to see them, I hope you take more photos for Rookie, Maria.
And do you have anywhere that you put your other photos or something? Like flickr, tumblr, twitter etc.?
These are so inspiring! I’m planning my birthday already, do you have flickr? Wow.!
Some of these photos are really great, too many to say all the numbers.
You have an unique way to document your life. It seems to be there with you, to hear the music out loud, to see you play that tambourine.
These are so lovely, I really love the way they embody that whole spirit of just youthful fun, really. They’re all beautiful pictures but I particularly love number 17!
dayum, i wish more parties that i go to were like this, it looks so fun!
María Fernanda, literalmente todas tus fotos son las mas hermosas que he visto en toda mi vida!
These are so lovely, and i love how the feeling of the farewell party pictures is kind of sad. Seems like the energy in them is so much different from the other pictures – sad but not quite idk how to explain it. But awesome, awesome, awesome pictures!
17 is just so amazing omgomgomgomg it looks 3d.
obsessed with #17!! love
Aww María, so want your life/friendships <3
this is really beautiful!
xx
This pictures are amazing and seriously good!!! Please keep posting these posts, Rookie!!!
A lot of the pictures also had good photography behind them… as usual, I can say a million things about Rookie- all positive!
I love your dress in number 29 :)
#17 might be my favourite picture EVERRRRRRr
Maria, your hair is perfect and your photographs are perfect. You are so on point in my books A+
Your photos are perfect and this diary makes me want to do the same thing for the summer. Thanks Maria <3
These fill me with nostalgia for places I’ve never been and people I’ve never met. The best kind of photography
I will make
