Jaja The people that doesn’t know about grudges, and will always receive you with the arms wide open in our very wealthy lands! Too much congratulations compas’!
As an special edition of this important celebration (la independencia de México pa kien no lo sepa) I will tell u some curious things that doesn’t make us bad to know…here they go:
Firstly, did u know that “México” means “in the navel of the moon” or what is the same…“en el ombligo de la luna”? that’s because in náhuatl.. “meztli” means moon (osease luna) and “xictli” means navel (osease ombligo). The Aztecs used to say “meshico” … and today we used to say “méjico” but it’s written with X, as the song of Timbiriche says.
Did u know that the meteor that provoked the dinosaur’s extinction was collapsed, 65 million of years ago, on what we know today as the town of ChicXulub, in the coast of Yucatan?? Yes, and the impact formed a crater of 180 km of diameter, and nowadays it’s hide under 600 meters of land. It was discovered in 1981 while workers of PEMEX made perforations to search oil. Yes, another wonder from Yucatán to the entire world! jaja
But…do u know what does “Yucatán” means? No, it is nothing related with moons or with hills or with navels, and with any part of the body, neither… it actually comes from the Spanish conquer, when a Spanish man asked to a native which was the name of that wonderful place, and the native answered “YUCATÁN” and that’s how they put it, but they didn’t know that what the native was saying was: “I am not from here” (osease…”no soy de aquí”) !!! jajaja. Lo que es no saber idiomas verdad? Jaja.
And guess what?? El Zócalo is not called El Zocalo because it’s on the center of the city…jaja no no.. it is because in 1842, the president Antonio López de Santa Ana wanted to construct a column for the celebration of the independence day of mexico… but it was not finished (as it’s natural in our country jaja), and it only remains the base, that is also called zócalo in Spanish. This base stayed for many years there, as the same for the name…but then the base was retired, but the name of the place stills the same.
You surely know that the first president of mexico was Guadalupe Victoria…but what u maybe don’t know is that his true name was “José Miguel Ramón Adaucto Fernández y Félix” válgame dios… so it’s understandable why did he change his name, jaja.. to Guadalupe, in honor to the Mexican virgin, and Victoria, because of the victory of the insurgents band.
And talking about politics, do you know why is Los Pinos called Los Pinos, although there haven’t been any pines in the surrounds? Jaja ell, this is because the president Lázaro Cárdenas, the first inhabiting this place, wanted to put this name in remembering of the place, -an orchard in Michoacán (Guys! At least we are going to see something in the trip!!!!)-, where he met his wife.
And tell me something: who invented the first system for television in colors??? No, it wasn’t Da Vinci, and no, it wasn’t Benjamin Franklin, it wasn’t even an American!!! And no!!! it wasn’t Paco Stanley!!! He was Guillermo González Camarena, a mexican guy of only 23 years old!!
And, so u can be even more proud of your country…do u know that it is the city with the biggest number of museums IN THE WORLD??
And more over…El Castillo de Chapultepec… is the only true castle in aaaaall the American continent. (of course u are not thinking in Disney’s Castle because, in the name of God, it’s not a real royal castle! Don’t get lied, it’s just fantasy! (sorry if I disappointed u))
And something you must always suspected…Yes, it is the country with more taxis in the world, with 60, 000, of them …without counting the Piratas ones! just imagine! (just triply the number! jaja)…and thank you and your family, it is the biggest consumer of cola drinks “refrescos de cola” per capita! Per capita means for each person!!! Jaja…
So now u can celebrate this date with a little of more conscience about what been mexican really means!
Although…. We actually must not be celebrating today…because in fact, the date in which “el padresito Hidalgo” shouted against the “regimen virreinal” in favor of Fernando VII, (and not because of the Mexican independence, let me disappoint u) was in the dawn of the 16th, there was no shout in the night of the 15th…buuuut, in order that it was a tradition to do it as the pre-party jaja, and in order that it was Porfirio’s birthday…this president decided to make official this day of party. However, nowadays the 27th of September is not celebrated, even when this was the date on which the trigarant army entered to the city, and our independence began…yes, before we used to celebrate also this date, but because of some conflicts with the liberals and conservatives… we stopped doing it…. Never Mind! Jaja i don’t want to become a partypoooper, a killjoy, jaja, so let’s have fun, no matter which is the reason, we are glad to be mexicans and that’s the only thing that matters!!!!!
FELICES FIESTAS!!!!
y FELIZ DÍA DE LA INDEPENDENCIA!!!!!! (cualkiera q sea este día jaja)
sean felices! enjoy everything what comes! become crazy!!!! jaja ntc.
I wish I could write this things in Spanish…but homework is homework…never mind… ARRRTAS FELICIDADES MIS COMPADRES MEXICANOS, los amo un huevo! jaja
