Yes, you over there! The one reading this!

Uh, finally. I have your attention.

Help me improve my english! If you see any mistake, ANY mistake at all, let me know.

I don't want you to be nice. I want you to be cold and bitchy.

Here, have a poem..I wrote like four years ago as a class assignature related to the suicides ocurred in Bridgend
(I think)

I'm positively sure I've just sprained my wrist.

Not that I complain, mind you, it happened during a very fun activity.

Breaking a piñata.

It's been at least five years since the last time I broke one. I happened to miss it a damn lot, so now that I had the opportunity I kicked ass.

The first piñata? I couldn't broke it, but my turn was wild. I beat the crap out of the piñata and then when they were trying to get it away of me I catched the cord and managed to hang of it, just by one hand, while I was beating the piñata with the other.

The second piñata? A guy broke it with a single punch, it was awsome. Also I ran as fast as I could, tossed myself to the ground, wrestled with a guy and then stole almost all the candy.

The third piñata? We broke the stick before the piñata, but then a girl and I started beating the thing at the same time, two sticks are better than one...Yet it was being hard to broke, So I loose my patience and used the other side of my stick (Now a spear) and stabbed the piñata to dead. I stabbed it and then gutted it...
Again, it was awsome. (But I think I sprained my wrist)

The fourth piñata? Three guys started to beat it with three short sticks. It took time, but at the end of it they broke it. Not as awsome, but again I wrestled for candy.

I love piñatas

Libraries aren't "short people" friendly, Nuff said.

I'm 5'04. That's me, I'm not big but I'm not tiny. I'm just short.

And libraries aren't short people friendly; I had to walk around the entire library trying to find a box or bench or something to climb in to reach a book at the top of a shelf.
When I managed to find it, it happened to be heavy as hell.

It is not fair...or funny, as a couple of girls thought.

My University prides itself saying that there's a lot of foreign students around, not only from America but from around the world.
This is basically true, I've seem people from all around the world in this place, walking, talking and having fun.
I love this, it makes me feel part of something much more bigger.

So, when I heard that today is Thanksgiving day (Because, you know, we don't celebrate that in Mexico) I thought immediately of the foreign students that celebrate it. What would it be to miss an important celebration just because you are in a different country.

Well, when I went to the cafeteria to buy my meal I got a nice surprise; The whole menu was specially created for Thanksgiving, so the foreign students would feel more at home.

I thought it was a particularly nice detail. Now I like my college a bit more.

I like movies; Really I do.
There's something about all those stories that really catch my attention, and it's also one of the reasons I chose my major (Because I'm interested in the behind cameras of the whole business).
Also, I'm pretty capable to see...well, any kind of films, regardless my actual interest or disposition (More likely, sometimes I just have to watch a film, even if it's against my will)

Anyway, my motto regarding film is:

"If you liked it, watch it again...and again...and again"



( Why? )

Why that strange fascination with Tacos in USA pop culture?

I just don't understand.

I mean, we Mexicans can't care less about the Taco (Yes, we have a "taco day" but still), it's food, it's incredibly common, big deal.



Also, your "tacos" gross me out.

This is a real taco:





I mean, don't take me wrong, I really appreciate the fact that every time I go to the states you try to get me to eat "Mexican Food" but really, your whole concept of Mexican Food seems to be more inclined to "Tex-Mex" than actually Mexican Food.

And what they give in those restaurants scare the shit out of me.


And please, foreign students of my college; Don't look at actual tacos with that "WTF" face, it's disturbing.
Also, foreign students: Don't try to eat tacos in the street, ever heard of Moctezuma Revenge?

The new chapter, Healthklok is perhaps the craziest thing I've seen.

For a while there I felt like tripping balls, really.

Look Man, I'm sorry but we can't take it anymore.

We (The group) finished our papers, our investigations, everything is ready and we are just cleaning stuff, you know, checking grammar and such.

Why in hell did you decided that his was a good time to tell us what the work must include and how we should write it.

You are supposed to give us that kind of things BEFORE we even start working in the paper.

It's like asking us to bake a cake, wait for when we are adding the frosting and then give us the recipe.

It's not cool man.

Now we all have to write the damn thing again, in less than a week.

Thank you very much

I taste like Bread. I am a staple in almost everyone's diet. Friends like me are a complement to any other friends I get on with almost everyone, remaining mostly in the background, but providing substance when it would otherwise be lacking. What Flavour Are You?

Whoever shaved her armpits (I pray that I'm correct in that supposition) PLEASE CLEAN YOUR MESS.

It's not funny to try to clean your face and find a bunch of SHAVED HAIR!! In the fucking sink and all around it!

It's fucking disgusting.

Look sir, I know you are busy and all the stuff, you've told me already and I understand.

But I've send my paper to you at least three times now, and every time you promise to give it a read and tell me what is wrong (Because for god sake, there's always something wrong isn't it?)

Well, just do it!

Really man, again I know you are busy, but I really need to start another investigation report and I just can't do it because I need to know the first one is good and finished. I mean, I know it's finished, there's barely a thing I can add, but please pretty please, just take your time, give it a quick read, tell me how can I make the damn antithesis coherent with the rest of the text and it's over.

I'll stop pestering you and I'll be able to have my grades on time.



Also, for my "team mate" that just keeps disappearing.

Fuck you man. I'll do the job and I'll put my fucking name on it, and to hell with you. I won't give you credit for a work you didn't do.

Talking about a stolen Ipod.

Ares Who needs an Ipod when you have the rythm in your blood?
Me Who doesn't own an stethoscope.
Ares I don't own an stethoscope.
Me You need the Ipod
Ares But one day! One day I'll have it!
Me That day you won't need the Ipod anymore.
Ares Well...who needs an Ipod when you have a great singing voice?
Me Whoever wants to hear instrumental music of course.



Clearly, we need to sleep.

Somehow I got this weird idea in my mind, that all the stuff that we've been doing during the semester, like investigations and such for a final work weren't going to be checked...or considered at all.

Obviously I was wrong

XD

Now I'm fucking loaded with work

Today I learned something new that will help me trough my life, that I'm sure.

I've been working on a final essay for a while now, I picked a theme related to what I'm studying (It is called subject or what? I'm still not sure about that one. Any help?).

Anyway, I picked what pretty much can be summed as "Negative influence of the beauty ideal over Mexican teenagers"
Researching, writing and reflexing about the whole damn thing I've got to the conclusion that the whole idea is so far fetched that it's just stupid to worry about it.

Sure, taking care of what you eat and working out is good, whatever the reason that lead you to do it in first place, but lately I've felt much more comfortable about my body, and that's pretty much amazing.

I mean, I came to terms with my height long time ago. I stopped growing (Upwards at least) during highschool, leaving me with the grand height of 5'04ft, so really, it's not a problem (at least in Mexico) and it's actually quite practical.

Weight issues though, those are a whole different thing. Anyway, thanks to this essay I've been learning so much about body image and acceptance and really I can say right now that I feel comfortable with the way I look. Yes I want to be in better shape and condition, but mainly because I want to be able to run without loosing my breath, although technically I think that's because of my sinusitis.

The little baby hamster? It died.
Somehow it went missing and I found it today under everything Toni could found. Obviously Toni didn't wanted to it it, but she suffocated it.

With objects.

Though interesting and slightly disturbing, I find that just...well, cruel.



In other news, today in my Italian Class, Jack the Reaper ended up as Jack the Stripper, I don't know why.


Also, I've been watching the first two episodes of Metalocalypse third season and I'm not convinced about the new screamo style they are setting.
The humor though, is as good as ever, perhaps even better.

Well...that's a good one.

At first I thought about saying something between the lines of "Twilight, and any other book written by Stephanie Meyer."
However that would have been incredibly childish, because really I just hate the thing. However it involves young people with literature (In a very mediocre way that is) and this can evolve into something deeper, some sort of "I liked this book, therefore I'll read more, from other authors" (That's me, trying to express myself in english)

After a while I decided that, I would never ban a book from a high school library, I do believe that there are books more appropriate than others for certain ages, but I also believe this kind of guide, of what kids are allowed to read is somehow a problem. Sure, everyone wants the best for the kids, but when that involves burying them in the ignorance regarding sexuality, for example, is just wrong.

I'm talking, of course, as a Mexican here. And, as everyone must know, Mexicans don't read, as simple as that. The average Mexican reads less than a book per year (Less than a book! Dear God, I want to cry every time I hear that) therefore banning some sort of books from a high school library would be not only stupid, but unnecessary, after all, kids don't read.

That's what takes me back to the Meyer stuff. Twilight is getting a lot of fans, and yes, the thing (Not book, never book) is mediocre at it's best, but people read it, which is good after all, certainly not the best reading to start with, but well, every little bit counts.

Which is the whole point of the story, I think the answer would be not only not to ban a single book, but to allow kids to get to know good books in simpler ways. Somehow start a program for young readers, giving them simple books with good content and allowing them to make their own mind about the things they read, you know, critical reading!!

I would be careful with books regarding love though. I have nothing against love, but I do believe that filling the mind of young readers with ideas so romanticized is wrong, but that's just me, mind you, I hate Romeo and Juliet for the same reason.

As a conclusion I want to say that, no, you just can't ban a book, it's a horrible and cruel idea, what we should do is teach young readers how to recognize a good book from a bad one, again, critical thinking and reading.

I want need this tees
No, really I do
However Marvel seems to be "Too cool" to send stuff outside the USA and Canada.
Well, that sucks

(I'll find a way to get things though, really. Even if I have to travel to the US with the specific purpose of having them)
