Fresas

So they guy I'm staying with is apparently a 'fresa' as they say here in mexico--i guess the equivalent phrase is 'privileged' or just kind of one of those rich kids. but this is different than what we might think...
Cuernavaca is a great city, but highly confusing--it's in the mtns and so all the roads are like this labyrinth that never ends. i'll probably get lost many times during my stay here...which i find fun usually. i went to el centro yesterday and there were lots of people. i went into the palacio de cortes where there's a mural by diego rivera--it was pretty sweet. I also went into several markets and you know, they are the same here as pretty much everywhere else i've been--just selling different stuff. While I was walking around two separate groups of students (high school age) came up to me and interviewed me on camera--they were so cute because they had to speak in english (it was for a class) and they didn't want to make mistakes and such. It was fun, and it confirmed that no matter how hard i try, there's no use, everyone knows i'm american, or foreign at least =)
And this last event is just for Stephen and Smeal, if they read this....last night i played Guitar Hero! yes, you thought i would be deprived of it, nope. it was fun!
So, life here in Mexico right now is pretty lazy and laid back, which is a great thing in my opinion. we'll see how that changes when classes start. The campus is freakin far away and so i don't know how much time that will take out of the day....anyway, hope it's not as hot wherever you are as it is here =)
