Good questions!

Yeah! I need a break from my paper . . . perfect timing:-)

1) I am not completely sure. Depends . . . on whether or not I get accepted into law school . . . if I do . . . then I think I will go to Mexico or Europe . . . Traveling . . . if not, then I think I will work. It'll be fun to just chillax and not worry about papers or getting into law school . . .in Mexico I must go to mexico City . . . if Europe, then England and Rome . . . Brittain is my spiritual homeland; London, Glastonbury, Scottland.

Really good questions. They hit the spot.

2)Wow . . . I don't know how you knew, but that is the other location of where I am thinking about living in . . . going to UC Hastings in San Fran . . . so if I get in, definitely there . . . for the three years I plan to be there, I plan to comb over the city life and go to Haight Ashbury and all the other cool places.

3)The most Latino thing about me would probably be . . . my spanish. It's that bold and terse spanish of my dad's hometown . . . mexican spanish is so distinguishable from other accents. It's a lil' bit arrogant and reminds me of the harsh dirt and rugged terrain of my dad's little town, Tepusco . . . I hear that sort of spanish on Novelas . . . it's very self-assured, direct, yet folksy at times, common, of the people; I guess. I don't know if I am articulating this well . . . the least latino thing about me would be my individuality and need for space, and being the truth teller to my parents, which is a definite no-no, and challenging the family dynamics that I perceive to be dysfunctional . . . so, there's a few things that are counter-cultural.

4) Do I have to? I want to do constitutional law, or international contracts . . . I don't know; that's hard. hmmm . . . prosecutor: I do believe in holding people accountable for their actions and being a factor in meting out justice . . . on the other hand, Defense attorney: unjust and inequal social order would make me want to defend people of color and the lower class who are people of color or part of any underclass (not for people who have admitted to murder or rape or something like that; just ones where only circumstancial evidence points to guilt) . . . really good question.

5) I would have to say, sometimes, with King Lear's daughter Cordelia because I try to really honor my parents and not be a burden and for the most part, my effort goes unnoticed . . . at others I would have to say that I identify with any Fellini character that is lost and seductive because I tend to try to seduce without thinking about consequences or the future, and I have regrets, though, this aspect of myself is gradually becoming diffused as I've learned to relate better with people and in healthy ways.
