Ser chilango es chido, dicen

This is probably better written in Spanish... But, meh, I've been singing stuff in English and that's how the voice inside my head sounds. I don't think I really feel all that chilanga (person from Mexico City) or even Mexican. I do feel Latin American. But I don't really know other latino countries... I don't think anyone feels all that attached to any place; I think it is a thing of this generation: suddenly other places seem closer to us. But, of course, I only think, I don't really know shit.

I do appreciate driving here; when you can actually drive, that is. I mean, it would probably be prettier if you could see, say, a moose walking placidly by the road, rather than all these people going places in a rush... But then there are these elevated avenues... Pff, I really, really like looking at stuff from up above. 

I never get to copilot when I am on this second floor thing so, today, I had to take a crappy video with the phone. Damn. You could see the mountains and all but this stupid phone... 

I suddenly feel the need to show, even to myself, how I live. Things are different when one writes them here (letter in a bottle and all). I don't think I'll be sharing any of this with people but still... I can't quite explain it. Things change when I see them here... I have to take a better video and maybe share that with people.

So, driving and getting to see the city from above...  I feel in need of perspective so often... And I still need to find a tall building I can climb when stuff suffocates me.
