Quinceneras and other topics on my mind

so i'm talking to cathy right now and it's really tragic because she only has the intRanet at work, or like some really toned down version of the internet where she can can only use aim express and gmail but no perez or anything. tre tragique! she can't even google chat. it's really bad. aaaaaanyways...

so last night my mom and i drove out to irvine to see the much talked about independent film "quincenera." this is not to be confused with the really horribly cheesy 90's movie "quince." Anyways we always are up for supporting our latino peeps in the movie industry and this movie was actually pretty cute and REALLY quite realistic. All the kids really looked like they would be messican kids from echo park. it was real deep. FYI Quinces are big gigantic coming out parties that latin people throw when a girl turns 15 because this symbolizes her ascent into womanhood. There is all this shit that goes along with it like she has to pick anywhere from 1 to 15 men and women to be in court and they are called damas and chambelanes and then they all choreograph this really cheesy waltz which we pronouce "valz" and there is mariachi and cheesy pink roses and a big ugly white dress and it's all kind of a mess if done the wrong way. Anyways i didn't do a formal quince i just had a big 15th birthday and got a car. honestly though it would have cost as much as a car. the way that people offset the cost is by getting random people in the family to sponsor something and they are called the padrino of this and that so you have the padrino of the limo and the padrino of the cake and the padrino of the banquet hall and it's all a big community event only growing up i had no mexican community so the whole padrino thing wouldn't have really worked for me. Anyway this is kind of what it ends up looking like...
Anyways this is in no way what i was planning on talking about today since i had something else pressing on my mind, namely how i noticed that i talk in wierd code that i started using as a joke but now i can't really remember what the real worlds were. like how i call sandwhiches "sangwhiches." And yesterday i was out and i saw a place that sold "sandwhiches" and i thought "that's wierd they spelled it wrong. don't they mean they sell sangwhiches?" and then i was reminiscing about being in vegas and how i always refer to the burberry coast which is actually called the "barbary coast" and the thing is that when i think about what it's really called i have to really think hard because i can't remember because the only think that goes through my head when i think about it is "burberry coast." Anyways there are lots of other things like craycray, and totes, and ridic, and eemagine that i won't go into detail about but i'd just liek to apologize for not always making sense.
