Crazy lady: Where would we be without Mexicans? You are a very hard-working people.
Mexican, working the register, nods.
Crazy lady: All the time I see your people working.
Mexican nods.
Crazy lady: Like no other.
Mexican nods.
Crazy lady leaves.
Mexican, to no one in particular: Soy de El Salvador.

I’m now 21. Three nights of some drinking and monday morning was killer and raining but im happy about everything that happened so no worries. The quarter is coming to a close very fast but i am not to stressed about it…got everything.
Had a friend take me to the gym today and show me how to lift weights. I prolly wont be able to lift my pencil tomorrow but im excited. I want to get some moooscles on this little body i got here.
Went swimming after and got in the big plastic bubble and bounced around in the deep end for a while. I miss being 6.
After all this stuff that has gone on recently to me I feel odd and different but better overall and it is all a process and it is good to step back and realize that everything overall is fine, just not to get to caught up in the bad times. Hanyways…got a big weekend coming up and hopefully I make the most out of it. Get out of class 9am on friday and dont have class till wednesday. So I should do some fun things! Fogrov, capital hill, fam time, friend time, camping?, whatev im down.
K later
