That's ****ed up. When my cousin, my brother and I were kids; we would go to TJ and Rosarito all the time. Some of the store owners would speak in Spanish and try to rip us off, they knew we were from up north (we were born in the US). and since all 3 of us are light skinned they thought we didn't know ****. But our moms made us learn the cotizaciones (money exchange) so that we knew how many pesos amounted to what in American money. We would reply to them in Spanish that we were just going to go to another store where they wouldn't try to rip us off and then they'd try to change their script .
We always make sure to change some of our dollars to pesos so people don't try to rip us off
El chupacabras, La mano peluda, and thousands of local legends/ghost stories.
In Rosarito there are lots of "haunted houses". Some people swear that they actually saw the ghosts.
I don't really have any but when I used to live in Mexico my mom would put garlic by our beds so the bruja wouldn't come near us. I also remember nobody in my town would be out past 12 because then la muerte would come rolling with his carriage or something. I believed all of it and still do tbh.
Most English ones are boring and STILL running after like 50 years.
Call Spanish novelas melodramatic, but at least they END.
Exactly! And they're passionate; the love, the hate, the comedy and drama is all real emotion. The ones in English have no spice at all they are lame and last an eternity.
Even though I can't stand this place, one good thing is that we get novela episodes at the same time as Mexico so we're up to speed while in Los Angeles the novela is barely starting on another station
My mom's friend always tells her the novela has barely started there while here it's about to end.
.
I be like damn, it's not even real!
or a children's album.
