i just thought this was appropriate cause i've been wearing chanclas every day for a couple weeks now. somebody stop me! lol plus i have an alcoholic uncle, i have about 20 or 30 first cousins on my dads side alone, and sometimes i probably talk too loud. eh, so it goes.

You know your Latino if:
You have ever been hit by a chancla
You can play any sport wearing chanclas
You grew up scared by something called "El Cucuy"
Others tell you to stop screaming when you are really just talking
You use your lips to point something out
You constantly refer to cereal as "con fleis"
Your mother yells at the top of her lungs to call you to dinner even if it's a one bedroom apartment
You can dance ranchera, cumbia, or salsa without music
You call your sneakers "tenees"
You have at least thirty cousins
You can't imagine anyone NOT liking spicy food
You are in a 5-passenger car with 7 people in it and a person shouting, "SUBANSE, TODAVIA CABEN!"
Tamales, champurrado, posole y menudo are must haves on Thanksgiving
There is more Tequila than punch at little Juanito's birthday party
There is at least one member in your family named Maria, Guadalupe, Juan, Jose, or Jesus.
You swear "Choco Mil" is the same as Slim Fast and try to lose weight by drinking it
You have a drunk uncle/aunt
You not only know who Don Francisco from Sabado Gigante is, but you tell people he's your tio
You have ever had to tell your kid not to walk the floor barefoot or they'll catch a cold
You go to a wedding or Quinceanera, gossip about how bad the comida is, but be the first one to take a plato to go
You have a bottle of Tapatio in your purse or back pocket
Your cousins are delinquets/hootchies
You have a chola in your barrio named "La Flaca" who's bigger than a house
u know a chola named "La Shy Girl" who is loud and obnoxious
You need to point out how much something you just bought cost
You have a bottle of Bacardi or Tequila in your house right now
You're laughing right now because some of these things have actually happened to YOU
You're proud to be Latino and you pass these jokes on to all your Latino friends

BrideyHoney is back.......

made a new xanga. guess the hiatus only lasted a week, but ya know i didn't miss it too much. the layout to my new site is still a work in progress. working on a banner. if you want to subscribe to me, or me to subscribe to you, then you must leave a comment, cause i'm currently subscribed to over forty people on brideyhoney, and i don't want to resubscribe to everybody. it would just take too long, especially if you aren't going to read. also, if you do read, please leave a comment, cause i've always found it rather shady when people read but don't leave comments, and the next thing i know strangers are gossiping about something i wrote on here. that's awfully sneaky kids. don't do it. this xanga is gonna be different then brideyhoney. shorter entries, less entries, and certainly more protected posts. ttfn <3

Dear Xanga,

I think I'm going to take a break from you for awhile. I don't feel like I have anything new to say. Well, except for school, my future, and relationships, most of which are personal subjects and shouldn't be shared with xanga anyways, right? I'm not sure how long this hiatus will last, but I'm just not as addicted to xanga as I used to be. I just feel my real life is way more articulate and exciting, and xanga has just become a shadow of all that. Who knows, maybe I'll make a new xanga in the future. Or just return to this one. Whichever comes first. Adios for now.

Sincerely,

Bridgette

so i didn't go to school yesterday or today. i'm so sick. for some reason i get sick the same time every year for like the last 4 years. it's this horrible weather, it's unnatural. it's january, it should be in the 70's. and summer shouldn't have humidity.

when i went to walmart today my eyes wouldn't stop watering and i kept coughing and wiping my nose. i bought more loreal paris lip color, this time in peaches & creme cause i don't have that color, mascara, and intouch magazine. j.lo wants a baby, which is cool cause she's like 35, but supposedly nick is hassling jessica to get pregnant. she's only 24, and it's california not kentucky, so leave her alone nick. as someone who will be 24 in a few days, let me tell you 24 is wayyyy too young to start procreating. i'm not even going to consider it for another 10 years. unless of course i find out i'm gonna die soon. or the potential father is dying soon. other then those drastic reasons, i'm staying baby-free. but knowing my luck it just may be one of those reasons. i associate young people having a bunch of kids to illegal immigrants or white trash. case in point: 23 year old britney spears is trying to have a baby with a man who already has two kids with a black mother, and britney is from kentwood, louisiana. i still love you though brit.

i also bought valentines for some friends. it was harder then i thought too cause most just had pics of flowers and i wanted cute sparkly ones with pink shiny hearts. and luckily i eventually found that.

oh yea, i wanted to do one of those cute xanga quiz's but now i feel too tired. maybe later.
