I have been tagged by one of the leaders of the revolution, Tin of Flor y Canto en Xochitl.

Uno.
i want a job sitting under a mango tree reading books and eating mangos.

Dos. Ando agotada. Mi trabajo me ha dejado súper agotada. I love the word “agotada” because I don’t think the english “exhausted” describes how I really feel. Me siento agotada y cada vez que digo la palabra, agotada, me hace pensar en la canción de Maná, Estoy Agotado.

Tres.
I love my mamí. I worry, I don’t appreciate her enough—because I don’t. A feminist, a revolutionary, an immigrant, an activist in a land and language that she fights to make her own. I wish I was half as strong (and hot) as my mamí.

Cuatro
I compare every boyfriend to the one who squeezed all of the innocence of love out of my heart. I wonder when I will stop comparing.

Cinco
I wish I knew more about Jazz. I’ve checked out some CDs from the library but I feel quite ignorant about jazz.
