im proud to be mexican too, but it failed in part of its objective. they were supposed to not go to work/school, not purchase anything rom grocery stores and whatnots, and not buy gas etc, etc. so what did they do the day before, buy all the shit they needed, raking in more than $40,000 over what was expected in a lot of grocery stores, it needed to be better planned, its weird, i would have taken part in it, but i had school, i appreciate school, i guess im not an immigrant so it doesnt hit me as hard? i dunno, but i saw them rallying at school, and i would have stayed to listen and watch but i had class and they probably would have given me dirty looks, tryin to represent latinos but looking hella white. whatever, i dont know, im tired, i woke up early to study for my econ test today, and now i've got to go take it soon. FRIDAY WHOOP!

Hahah, yah, I guess I just missed all the stuff going on in downtown SJ, b/c I was @ work, w/ my cousin, so I wasn't gonna boycott work, haha. I get the "I thought you were white" thing all the time, so I understand. Can't wait for Friday! Lots and LOTS of pictures, w000! =)
