WANNA GO HOME!!!!

Hum... it's just been 2 weeks since I arrived from beautiful Mexico, yet, I wanna go back! Maybe it's just the gloomy weather, or the fact that PhD is proving to be the best way to lose valuable work experience. I don't know. I just miss the fact of going out to Coyoacan (my-kind-of-town) and having some "papas de carro" (perhaps a filthy version of fried potatoes such as the much processed Walkers). I miss the fact of looking out of the window every now and again and knowing that even if the weather is gloomy, it's not going to stay that way THE WHOLE YEAR (except perhaps for 2 wonderful but not long lasting weeks in the middle of the summer). I miss the fact of eating green salsa whenever you are in the mood of going out and purchasing it from the "tortilla on the bicycle" guy. I miss being able to call my sister "naca" just because she's bugging me to change the channel to see "La fea más bella" (The Mexican version of the Colombian soap that the US guys remade in Ugly Betty).

But anyway, grass always seems greener on the other side of the fence, I would probably be complaining about not having a job if I was there ;) .... or not.... anyway. Hopefully this time it's not going to be a year before I see clearer skies and before I eat tortillas again, even if they are now really expensive because the f******ng gringos decided to use maiz as their new source of fuel and the f******ing government decided to help the f*******ing corporations so that they sell tortillas cheaper than the small "tienditas de la esquina".

MISS HOME!!!!!!
