Happy Humpday!

Ok. My last blog was in Spanish. Today...English!

My title says it all. It's Wednesday! I got home today after my longest day of the week and my roommate said something that cheered me up. He said, "¡Qué bueno que ya es miércoles! Ya vamos de bajada." Which roughly translated means, "Am I glad it's Wednesday! We're now downsliding" . . . at least for the week!

I won't bore you telling you all the things I did since everything went as normal. It's always fun to tell when things go wrong or extraordinarily great. Today, none of those two was the case. What I am telling you, though, is that tomorrow some of my classmates and I are grabbing some pizza and beer to celebrate the fact that it's gonna be Thursday (last class for most of us), it's almost the end of the semester, and Yeji's birthday (a classmate of mine) was on the 31 of October. Besides, even if there had been nothing to celebrate, I'm pretty sure we would have made something up. That's how we Mexicans roll!

That was all good things. On a more negative note, I do have to settle some matters about my transcript from Mexico and my registration here. I'm kind of worried because in Mexico if you wanna get anything done you have to go personally, otherwise good luck or know the right person to help you out. I am hoping I do know the right person and she is helping me with that. I just have to be patient. I won't say much more cause I want to avoid getting upset about all the bureaucratic crap in Mexico. And no, my Mexican countrymen, I do not hate Mexico nor am I talking crap about it. It's my country, but I am free to express my discontent with some crappy things that we all know happen down there! I just don't pretend nothing happens! If you think I'm a malinchista, you're free to think and say whatever you want, just like I am free to think and say whatever I like! There.
