what is up

*not* a continuation of a previous blog, but a rebirth of some sort, i guess. unlike my other very public friendster blog, i'm hoping that this will be one that is read by few on their own volition rather than read by many on friendster's incessant prompting. that being said, on this page you will come across thoughtful posts, straight-up feelings, manifestos on education reform, thoughts on social change, and generally - the craziness that *is* my world.....enjoy : )

la mujer is in la casa learning espanol

inspired by a bud and a longstanding desire to learn spanish, i bit the bullet last wknd and borrowed some spanish-for-beginners books. and having developed a severe case of attention deficit disorder during my adult life, i'm intermittently reading/listening/repeating spanish words and phrases as i type this post. big - grande, la casa es grande.

clean - limpio. wet - mojado.

i think i might just fall asleep listening to this cd, too. :)

things i'm lookin forward to: tomorrow's thursday which means the day after is friday - and so the wknd is in sight, starting a new book tomorrow on the train - how the garcia girls lost their accent haha, i guess it's funny cuz i'm trying to learn spanish at the same time (just finished night by elie wiesel), going to jackson heights tomorrow to chill with my teacher friend and her kids

things i'm dreadin: waking up at 7 in the morn, bravin the cold weather (esp. the 8-block-walk to the subway), being on the trains - some of those train compartments are completely different zones, folks are really the dead living. i looked around this morning on the 7 train and people were not happy campers. they were either sleepin away or had bitter looks on their faces because the only reason they got up this morning was to pay the bills. guess money does make the world go 'round, eh?
