Notes: Not all of the films on this non-exhaustive list are entirely “about” the lives of their respective writers to a tee. I cannot vouch for the accuracy or quality of all of these movies. I’ve only seen about 75% of these films personally. And yes, I know this list is very Westernized – I’m working on it.

How to Request :

Make sure to state what you would like in the imagine/story and what genre (?) Like angst, fluff, smut (sometimes). Also what character or person you would want in the imagine. 🙃

*Disclaimer*

I write for all of these characters and their actors and if you have someone else you would want me to write for be sure to put that in your request these are just the characters I could think of off the top of my head

P.S. I also do some ship imagines like Nick x Charlie (heartstopper), etc. So if you want ship imagines be sure to send them in and I will try and get to them.

I’m rehoming Peach. My vet came for a follow up last Friday before I went to Santa Cruz, and we had a long talk over a bottle of wine after the appointment. Peach is sick again and it’s such a high risk situation for Buddy - if the socialization had gone more smoothly, it would have been lower risk, but not zero. We have a really harmonious situation here and it’s not ultimately good for any of us.

When I tell you how big of a lump I have in my throat at the idea of letting her go. I’ve cried more tears in this process than I have in years. I need to keep her until an antibiotic can clear the infection so she can get spayed. Then the rescue will take her.

In the midst of grieving her, I had a thought - why don’t you just love her as long as you have her and be ok with the fact that you did a really good thing? I couldn’t hold that for long but it was there. When I told Shirley she said “you couldn’t hold it for long because you aren’t used to being happy.”

That was mind-blowing. I woke up that next morning, peaceful. I’m still sad and have flurries of tears but it’s going to be ok.

Shirley Cruz Le Progrès Article (August 22, 2023)

Much more willing to translate something as a favor when people are nice and respectful :)

Blah blah standard disclaimers apply, Pumpkin Spice Lattes are back and so is my desperation for OL Comms to chip in for my addiction, y'all know the speech by now.

Olympique Lyonnais: Shirley Cruz, the most French Costa Rican

The former Lyon defensive midfielder, who played a part in the club's first European titles, retired from professional football in early 2023, after more than 15 years at the highest level. At Lyon, the Costa Rican "Shishi" was part of the first foreign players to play in the French league.

"This isn't amateur football over here!" Shirley Cruz exclaims, who dropped by Décines [Lyon] at the end of July to visit the Lyon Feminin training grounds. Replaying her memories of her Lyon experiences, which ended 11 years earlier on the field at Garland [Lyon's former stadium grounds].

It's on the pitch in Tola Volga that the "small" 20-year-old Costa Rican arrived, in December 2005, to try out with Olympique Lyonnais. "It was my first experience with the cold, it was hard, hard," jokes the 37-year-old former defensive midfielder, a black jacket with a white neckline around her neck. One of the core members of this initial Lyon team and their first European trophies, in 2011 and 2012.

Having left her paradise in Central America for a European experience, "Shishi" left the noisy neighborhood in San Jose, where she lives with her parents, four brothers and two sisters, for the quietness of Lyon.

In tandem with her French lessons, perfected with her teammate Elodie Thomas, Shirley Cruz adapted little by little to her new environment.

"Beyond the winter [season], I discovered that the mountains could be something other than green. I also experienced pollen and allergies," laughed the former No. 11 Lyon player, who only knew "dry season and rainy season" in her native country.

A 3-week try-put which lasted 6 years

After a one-month probationary period and a game against Montpellier, the head coach at the time, Farid Benstiti, decided to keep her as part of the team. "What was supposed to be 3 weeks last six years," Cruz summarized, who was found at Lyon a new family with Sonia Bompastor, Camille Abily, Louisa Necib, Lara Dickenmann, Elodie Thomis, Lotta Schelin, Sabrina Viguier and others.

"We were kids who wanted to win titles and become the best footballers in the world. Aulas allowed us to do that by giving us the means so our dreams could become a reality," the Lyon player says, who retired from football back in January after almost 15 years at the top level. Of which six years were spent in the club's rival in the French capital, where she had followed Farid Benstiti.

"I didn't know anything about French football or European football at the start. I remember finding out on the fly that we would qualify for the Champions League by finishing first in the league, that was a nice surprise. Even if the first year was brutal," "Shishi" recalls fondly.

Remembering the Final lost against Germany's Postdam in Getafe (Spain) in 2010, after a penalty shootout which started well with Lyon having a two-penalty lead over their opponents. "The lack of experience, certainly. After that, it didn't happen again," the retired international player explains. Who is conscious about having "accomplished something big with Lyon by walking the halls of the Lyon museum, where she found her certification as a professional player hanging on the wall.

A good reminder for her who wanted to always wanted to represent Costa Rica. And who left her mark in France.

"With the girls, we went skiing in the mountains even though that wasn't allowed"

"My parents didn't know anything about football, I still have to explain the offside rule to them"

"I'm not from a sporting family. My mom was a stay at home mom and my father was a customs officer. They didn't know anything about football. Even today I have to explain what the offside rule is. But it wasn't all bad, they let me do my own thing, unlike certain parents who push their kids and get a big head over their performances. I learned to play football with my older brother and his friends. He is ten years older than me, when we were younger he had to take care of everyone, we followed him everywhere. Having played with boys until I was 13, and then with girls who were twice my age, it helped me grow physically and mentally."

"At Lyon, I could have even played as a centerback"

At Lyon, I started as a defensive midfielder to fill in for an injured player, and I stayed in that position. I was pretty technical, and was in charge of clearing the ball. Here [at Lyon], I learned how to play with my back to goal, to take more risks and push forward. I was surrounded by Camille (Abily), Sonia (Bompastor), Lotta (Schelin), Lara (Dickenmann), Thomas, Louisa Necib, players who knew how to play with the ball, so it was simple. At the time, I could have even played as a center back under those conditions.

"Sonia (Bompastor) left a mark on me, she yelled at me a lot"

"Sonia (Bompastor) is the player who left the biggest mark on me because she yelled at me quite a lot (laughter): she's a fierce competitor, she wants to win more than anything so she makes that known to you on the field. It worked out for me after, at PSG. Over there, it was me who was playing Sonia's role (laughter).

"We went skiing even though that wasn't allowed"

"When I came to Lyon, we had to train with our own clothes. The very next year, everything was paid for. In this team, no one was above anyone else, we were very united. We had a lot of fun during training sessions, we spent a lot of time together off the field as well. We even went to the mountains to go skiing even though that wasn't allowed. We couldn't make a mistake because we had to play a game afterwards..."
