Introduction to my Mindset

I'm Mexican, born in Houston, Texas, but I'm of the belief that Mom (Mexican) + Dad (Mexican) = Me (Mexican), unless you correlate it as some weird multiplication where -1*-1=1. Too much to think about. I'm of Mexican descent, but I am of the American nationality. Even oddly enough, of the Texas mindset. If all this is confusing, you should see the udder look of concentration as I try to convey this cloud of beliefs into text.

I grew up in Alamo, between North 9th and North 10th, between Duranta and Birch. Yes I grew up in the Housing Projects. Moved to Weslaco right when I hit high school, graduated a Panther. Since then I've studied for a bit, worked and moved to Austin for the last 7 years. I wouldn't classify myself as a writer, just as a typer with a self proclaimed sense of humor, wit, and spare time to nurture it.

I keep in touch with the valley via word of mouth and technologies (Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, texts). A big chunk of my family both on my mother's and fathers side is either in The Valley or in Mexico. I have opinions and I voice them as individual opinions.

Here I hope to just accomplish to highlight overall points of interest and my thoughts on the subject. I encourage everyone to voice their opinions.
