The Mexican Diaries Part 2

5 de Mayo? I went shopping yesterday and in every store the cashier told me happy 5 de Mayo. In Spanish. And it is always amusing, because they always say it in Spanish with a cute accent. My point is: I have absolutely no idea why people in the US celebrate this... I just don't get it, us Mexicans don't celebrate it! it isn't a date even worthy of missing school or a day at work! like, at all. I mean yeah, we won a mini battle against France but that was after we lost a bunch more battles and, well... we don't celebrate, lol x)

All the 'happy 5 de mayos' reminded me that I hadn't made another one of this posts, so I drove up the hills and took a picture of the part of Mexico in which I live [seriously low quality picture on the Left]

and the other day I saw one of my favorite Mexican movies of all time in Target! which brings me to my next point: Mexican Movies are great, I love them and if you understand Spanish or don't mind subtitles I recommend you watch them, we have this really dark sense of humor, even in the most cruel of situations we can still make a dry joke so if you feel like this is your thing, let me recommend a few movies for you:

Casi Divas - Niñas Mal - Cansada de Besar Sapos - Amar the Duele [You will cry, I swear on my life, You Will CRY.] - Volverte a Ver.

those are just a few mentions. and since I'm taking advantage of this post and showing you guys my favorite movies I shall show you also show you some of my favorite song [I'm pretty mainstream in my tastes, and really into pop so... yeah. it's still music.]

[Youtube Links]
Camila - Solo Para Ti
Pambo - Perdon
Sin Banderas - Suelta Mi Mano
Belanova - Por Ti
Playa Limbo - Imaginarte

Again, those are just a few of my favorites, seriously recommend.

and now totally out of the blue, three announcements: I built a mini bookshelf for my mini books [you know those pocket size books that totally mess up your normal shelve, example Jennifer Echols books? well, I made a mini book shelve for these books for one of my classes. I went to see Cirque Du Soleil, this time I saw Totem, as always, these shows are totally worth it. And I got bangs. Indeed, totally out of the blue....

 and the Cat LITERALLY ate my Math Homework...

My favorite bar in all Mexico: [they have the most delirious Margaritas and Martinis in the whole world!] oh yeah, in Mexico you can go out clubbing, drinking, smoking and vote at the age of 18.

Le Conteiner

Yum.

I seriously would have loved to have nice pictures of the city but my school schedule is killing me and I haven't had the time. You still get the insider in the life of a Mexican 18 year old's extremely boring life. 

Since this post is insanely boring in with no point I shall add random pictures below to compensate the lack of interesting things. Enjoy:

Feliz 5 de Mayo :D!
