oh i needed a break from writing last night so i went out... woke up earlier but couldnt stay up... and i just woke up to a group members call... i sounded confused and stuff i guess... i really was lost and apologized... i musta sounded crazy to her... need to finish this up to send to the rest of my group members...
oh this paper is frustrating!! but I am learning alot about boriquas ... for the presentation of Puerto Rico, we're going to show west side story, the whole "be in america" part because it shows the perfect cultural battle puerto ricans went through durring their great migration to nyc... its a great scene from a great movie.. one of my personal faves... i didn't learn to appreciate the movie untill one late night in paris some years back...
i kinda felt that whole where do i belong stuff when i moved back to the us... you spend 12 years of your life telling ppl outside, hey, im american, but as soon as you get back, you can't relate to anything... am i still american... yes... but its damn frustrating when ppl ask, "so where are you from?"
i hope to finish this b4 i have to meet up friends for the super bowl...

Even living in the US all of my life I still went through the whole where do I belong thing. No one believes that I'm from the place I live. It's hard to relate to other people. Did you try the link I sent you? What did you think? Hope you enjoy the superbowl!
