Haha nah, I don’t drink soda. Plus I think Inca is traditionally a Peruvian soda. I grew up on Kolashampan.

I washed it down with this:

Ahh I see. I think I got my sodas mixed up, haha. I let my dad pick out the sodas when we stop by this Guatemalan restaurant/bakery.

It’s funny you don’t drink sodas when I don’t drink any alcohol, even wine. My dad was an alcoholic so I vowed to stay away from it since I was a kid. Definitely have to quit sodas though, they’re just not good for you.

What kind of discussions
How do you guys feel about having to assimilate to another countries culture?
I came across a friends resume. His name is Jose, but on his resume he had his name under Joe.
He said he would get no calls prior. After that, he got more offers.

acclimation >> assimilation.

keep your culture and add to it, dont forego one for another... that's why certain NY Puerto Ricans can't speak Spanish.

Depends.

I’ve always gone by Robert even though my name is Roberto because it’s just easier for people to say and most non-Spanish speakers pronounce it close to rubber toe. I’d rather avoid the cringe.

Interesting about the resume thing, though. I thought it’d be a plus to use his government name since it might seem like he’s bilingual and that’s considered a plus to employers. Especially here in CA (I’m assuming he lives here).

Yo what's popping uptown. Trying to bring my El Salvadorian baby mom's out there since the kids is away for the month of July...

I know but the spam of music at this point is just some weird form of narcissism.

I’ve actually been looking into taking classes. I want to learn salsa & bachata on a master level. Ladies, Latinas especially, love to dance. And I want to expand my repertoire of yamb impressing skills for when I travel abroad especially. More likely to run into salsa dancing joints than these little ratchets twerking on you out of country.

 

[sharpshooter718]

My kids understand Spanish but can't really speak. Their abuela only talks to them in Spanish... Our baby sitter of two years only spoke to them in Spanish. Their mom didn't want to teach them Spanish growing up in fear that they may not learn English. Yeah she mad dumb for that. But it's whatever.

As long as they can understand it, I guess they can learn to speak it.

ur on da right track, plus latina girls age out of twerking on you, and wanna dance salsa/Bachata/merengue...once you good you can basically rub all on em anyways under da guise of good dancing, and they let it happen cuz they're impressed, and no one judging em cuz its "just dancing"

dumb logic. we're in America..they gonna learn it anyways, you need that extra Spanish reinforcement at home to master beIng bilingual.

they can speak it, they're just embarrassed.
