Well, for all of you who do not actually know me (aka everyone) I am proud to say I am of Mexican Descent. What I am not proud to say is that I do not speak Spanish, very well, if that is I am every forced to speak it.
I am currently enrolled in an upper-division Spanish grammar class that is totally fucking with my mind. I suck at Spanish and this opens the flood gates to an entire line of insults I have experienced from people my own age (Mexican and not Mex' alike) as well my very own grandmother. School just makes me think about this more because I sit in the Chicano-Hispano student center and realize I have no friends there. Man, where's the unity, hermana?
Anyways, in class today my friend Leti and I were talking about how all the students in our class do such outrageous fucking things on the weekend. This past week half of our class left the state, another quarter went to Phoenix or Mexico (to volunteer) and the other quarter stayed here to work/do crap shit. Well, Wow, I would have really liked to go to Mardi Gras or hell, I would have even gone to Wisconsin, but I cannot because I HAVE NO FUCKING MONEY. Well, no I just spend it on stupid things.
Anyways, it is weird to be Mexican-American and not speak Spanish. I don't really fit in with the Spanish speakers in the Cesar Chavez building and I sure as hell am no Sorostitute. Thank god I found another whitenized-mexicano como yo. Pues, me voy a ver el futuro cuando lo llego.
