Well then, I will suppose at some point I will write in Spanish, but not now, simply because my head is full of Jewish. Right now I'm in Southport, CT, bored out of my mind I must state since I dont know anyone here and my family has they respective duties to attend during the day. So mostly I just sit. So if my blog seems a little busy at the begining and then the initial fervor begins to die away, Its because I have left this fucking State and gone to Colombia to party my latin ass off... let me tell you why I have no life here. My family moved from florida as I left to UF, because my mom found a great job in CT working for General Electric. So for the past year, my "going home" for thanksgiving and Christmas was pretty much going to this place in which I have no friends and I am yet to meet a hispanic person that does not do my nails or landscaping. So yeah... what is pretty cool about it is that a very short train ride away lies NYC, and I LOVE THAT CITY. Its like a cultural orgasm. Me love me love... but its expensive so I cant go every day... anyways, right now I should talk about my mother's dinner party. 8 people: well mi madre, her bf, my bro, her bf's bro, his wife and their two friends. All of the guests jewish, very smart an obnoxious in several ways. ofcourse they all talked about their kids... who go to berkley, cornell, georgetown etc... all ivy or wannabe ivy schools. The problem is, they do keep staring at me in disbelief cause I seem to be a smart cookie yet go to a state school... in florida??? for crying out loud... its like not eating kosher... so well, in every bit of the conversation amongst the praise and awe towards my mom's latin cuisine, every reference they made to any person they asked about what school they had gone to. It was like "yeah he got pretty high in GE and I think he only went to like a state school or something" or like "what is his background, is it IVY league or just random?" the other one was trying to convince my mother not to move back to Colombia ( which she is about to do in July) and other commented if he would say the same thing about it being dangereous is she were going to Israel. Quite entertaining I must say, and for the first time I didnt feel snobish. Floridians and people up north ar two different specimens.
Anyways, after eating shrimp with fruit, coconut rice and sangria I am tired yet slightly drunk and feel like writing my guts out. But that hasnt happened in a while. I guess it is a vice which I dropped which I wouldn't mind re-acquiring... hey maybe I should start smoking cigars as well...why not? It should probably be in my top 100

I think the Ivy's have the football equivalent of "penis envy" for UF. Don't let their jealousy falsely impress you as stature ;)
PS: Thanks for joining AAFSA. Hope to see you at a meeting.
