Hello to everyone!
Yeah, you're right, I'm a Mexican girl (who else would be doing this?) and here I am just testing how much the boardies know or like about Mexico, including Mexican ones.
So if you know something about Mexico but you're not quite sure about it, we'll tell you if it's true or false (isn't it Mexican people???).
Or if you like something about Mexico, we will tell you if you should like that or not (just kidding) =).
I just want to know what every boardie thinks about my beautiful country.
Sorry for my poor English, I hope you can understand this thread or at least to get an idea of what I'm trying to say =).
Cheers and thanks for everything. |

| I met a few Mexican in my life and all of them were really kind. Nice people! I like your accent, and we had some discussions talking about words with different meanings in Spain and Mexico. I said a word, and all of them asked me what that means, and so did I. Very funny! Another thing I noticed about Mexican people is that you LOVE spicy food and tequila. |

Yeah, we're very kind with everyone no matter what. Everyone thinks our accent is quite funny, dunno why but it's nice you like it. Yes, discussions about meaning of words between Spain and Mexico never end =P. Of course we LOVE spicy food and tequila, although we don't drink it everyday, hehe, 'cos we have to go to school or to work. Just a few people drink tequila often but it's not very usual to drink it everyday. |

Hahahaha. I don't know why people find your accent funny. Maybe it's because your intonation is different. For me, it's like you were singing, or something like that.
When I was in London, I met three Mexican girls, and they were eating spicy food all the time. And I tried to eat a jalapeño, and I almost died! Hahahaha. |

Wow! In 1968, long time ago, I wasn't even born, hehe. I'm not quite sure but I guess you're talking about Pato Pascual soda, if you're talking about that YES! we still have that soda! |

Yes, that's what I've heard, it's like we were singing, haha. I'm from Mexico City (Distrito Federal) and even Mexican people but from a different location thinks the same thing you do.
I believe you, not everyone can eat a jalapeño, even though it's not the most spicy, for me the most spicy is the habanero, that's why i don't eat it very often 'cos it makes me almost cry, hahaha. |

things I like: the food, friendly people, focus on family
things I hate: going to Mexico for 5 days and having Montezuma's revenge for 10.
I am bitter. |

What I know about Mexico:
* “El chavo” is the best show ever!!
* You are Travis´ most spoiled fans (Mexico is even mentioned in a song!!)
* You are happy people whose accent is cute
* Molotov is a great band
* I love tacos but I cant eat them with my hands (I drop all the stuff, ja)
What I would like to know ;-)
* Why is still Chabelo on air!?
* Where is Don Francisco?
* Why Belinda calls herself a singer?
:-)

Sorry for that curse, hope you don't get very angry with us or Moctezuma, haha.
At least there are some things you like, thanks for telling us that!! |
