| My favorite quote of a song: "Nosotros los cubanos sólo estamos de visita pues lo que preferimos es vivir en nuestra islita y es que en cada cubano habita una verdad: queremos ver a Cuba en libertad." My favorite flavors of milkshakes are mamey, fruta bomba, and guanabana. "Vivaparub" (meaning Vick's Vapor Rub) is the greatest invention of time and can cure all that ails you. I have a semi-chemical-dependence on Cuban Coffee after every meal. For lunch i eat una media noche with un batido de mamey and I am still wondering what a peanut butter and jelly sangwhich is. I have a fear of una nalgada and of the words "lo que te espera". On outings (like baseball games), I take el thermos con el cafe instead of a water bottles or hot chocolate. I consider platanos to be its own important food group. I am guilty of dropping food on the floor, picking it up, eating it and after saying "lo que no mata engorda." I know the meaning of "esa chica esta de madre". (Do you?) I believe and have told others not to walk the floor barefoot or they'll catch a cold. My family reunions consist of all types of food (like lechon asado, gigantic ollas of congri, yuca and don't forget el mojo), dominoes, political talk, music and lots of people and what others consider general screaming. I still ask my mami and abuela "hazme cafe y traeme agua". I don't believe in "brujeria" but I respect it anyway. I say "oye", "no me digas" or "y ven aca" even if you are seated next to me. To display dismay, I say "no jodas" and "le ronca el mango". The babies in the family like violetas (Augustin Reyes) and wear a "Dios me Bendiga" pin with an azabache or a cadena with medallas of all the saints. When I have a dolor de barriga, my abuela makes me pure de malangas and gives me te de tilo with manzanilla and anise. I constantly say "en Cuba era mejor... en Cuba no pasa eso... etc". | |
