A few days ago, @Carogonza (from Twitter) said congratulations on being nominated on Latism.org,  I voted for you so I hope you win. At first I thought, Oh cool, someone added my name to win a cool Latism award.

I had no idea what she was talking about until I saw it myself this morning.  I was nominated for one of the best NY Latino Tweeps.

Can you believe it?

I still can’t believe it. I am in shock because I never even thought I would be nominated for ANYTHING in life!! Sounds crazy, uh?  I know this doesn’t sound like it’s a big deal to others but to me it is.  Never thought this idea would even exist just being a blogger and a Latina.

I’ve always been a proud Latina and so very proud of my heritage but this is the icing on the cake.  There are a lot of Latinos in Twitterville that are (in my opinion) greater than me, especially @Urbanjibaro (George Torres), so being chosen for NY’s Best Latino Tweeps was a total surprise and a huge honor.

George Torres is one of the best Bloggers, Tweeps and everything that involves social media for Latinos and beyond so to be on the same list with him among other great people is just amazing.

So, being that votes are REALLY important, I would LOVE for you to click on the link, Latism Awards, scroll down to where you see The Best NY Latino Tweep  and vote for me: @newyorkchica – Lisa.

This is what the page looks like:

PLEASE VOTE FOR ME and help me win a $300 gift card to Walmart (that is the prize for being the best NY Latino Tweep) and maybe I can take you shopping with me

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
