Everything In Its Right Place

who doesn't love a good radiohead tribute title.
friday was the jersil's 9th birthday (the older boy in my house) and it was great. i bought him a spiderman piñata, which he proceeded to dress up in his shirt afterwards and carry around the house like a doll. the kids love dancing to the pop music here and the dances seem to be universal..? like choreographed bollywood style everyone breaking into the same moves at once. granted, these were children so it was more choreographed flailing than moves. anywho, as they are dancing, i go over to jersil and ask if one of the girls there is his girlfriend. "no," he says, "that one is." and points to the other girl! turns out the one i had asked about is ton's girlfriend! the 7 year old! wtf!! omg i am so behind in my life. these kids are just passing me by in romance.
also at the party, among the bad dancers, was one boy--diego--who is quite possibly the gayest 8 year old i have ever seen in my life. homeslice has moves and i want to pack him up and take him to broadway. i took multiple videos of him dancing and shaking his little booty (like a creeper, i am aware). if i can post shit, i am posting a video because it is hilarious. how great is it that his name is diego btw? fresas y chocolate? meant to be a flamer. i love him.
today, i met up with todd, jenny, kashmira, dan, and some other people from their school and instead of going to san juan del sur like jenny and i had planned, we went to laguna de apoyo again. it was so fun! i met a bunch of new people--younger people in fact, which is a breath of new air. i got sunburned too (wtf?). i think it is because i publicly declared how happy i was that kashmira and i (another indian) didnt have to keep reapplying suntan lotion. god had the last laugh and now my chest is a strawberry. hopefully it will just fade into tan.
these tan lines wont make for a very good nude model, which i think im going to do btw.
today was also the 29th anniversary of the sandinista victory in the revolutionary war against somoza, so tonight is party times. we are going to a club near the lake where they hold booty-shaking contests. i dont know if i will partake in such contests, but i will definitely judge. too bad diego cant go to the bar. he'd totes win.
at the laguna, i met a kid named michael who has a fascination with indians like i have never seen before. i caught him shamelessly staring at me multiple times. i also heard him tell another girl, "She's INDIAN. how cool is that?!?!" great, im glad the most interesting thing about me is my race. i feel like if i were white (no offense my white friends), id be the most boring piece of shit ever. anywho, he will be there. i hope he stops his staring. he is very hairy.
i also met another 19 year old, the first i have encountered in my stay here. what a delight. i have given up on my stalkerish crush on oliver.
in other news, my movie screening i think is going to happen! i have a space i think and i now have films too! i contacted an organization here that gives young girls here the tools to make films, and they are willing to help me out and give me some movies to show. now i just need dates (i want it to last for 3 days) and start making promo flyers and get the man that drives around town announcing shit on his loudspeaker to announce this. i am so excited! i love seeing results! something i never see! what a novelty.
