Como Hay Gente en la Calle
por Albita

This morning I went to watch the midnight showing of Pirates: On Stranger Tides... oOoOoh... Went with Kira and Elena, to Sunset. The movie was fun, and they were cool as always.
Woke up at 2 PM, slummed it at home, cleaned up my room, watched some SNL and did other unimportant things. At night it got interesting again, when my aunts made sure I heard through the grapevine that Albita was giving a free concert on the mile. Hells yea! Picked up Mileini, went to the Borders in Merrick Park (MERRICK PARK IS SO GREAT!) to buy the Unbearable Lightness of Being (DID I MENTION HOW COOL MERRICK PARK IS?), and then headed over to the Sears lot, to park and walk to the concert. Felicidades, Cuba! Hoy ganamos nuestra independencia~
Albita estuvo... vaya, fenomenal. Y la orquesta de antes, también. Se pasa bien. Back to Mileini's for refreshments and then back home, arriving circa 12:30. Ate half a laftover turkey burger, watched Sports Night, and went to bed.

Happy 4th of July! The most All-American my weekend's gotten is wearing Bermuda shorts and watching Star Wars-- even the steel drum guy is playing Guantanamera. That having been said, this feels appropriate. Forloderdel!

THREE

Today I realized that this project is more than what I thought it would be. I figured it would be a way for me to keep busy and stay remotely organized, reminding myself that structure still exists despite the season we're in. I realized, however, that people need my help. So this has turned into the answer humanity doesn't know they were hoping for. Even if it doesn't reach that magnitude, it'll get by helping in particular a friend of mine who is in need of a musical education (¡ni siquiera sabe quien es Beny Moré!). So without further delay, this one's for you, Naty.
