Pues como no tengo más ideas para ustedes, porque ya he visto tantas cosas que no sufro tanto de choque cultural (ayer mismo vi en la calle comercial, donde todos van fashion de la muerte, a un africano con su túnica de africano colorida y me pareció tan normal... aunque al rato me di cuenta de que debería haberme sorprendido pero es que soy así de cosmopolita, y de guay), les traigo tres hechos callejosos que he vivido en mis carnes últimamente:
Well, I have no more ideas for you, because I've seen so many things that now I don't suffer cultural shock (yesterday I saw in the comercial street, where everybody wears fashion until death, an African wearing a colorful African robe and I saw it as a normal thing... although after a while I realized that I should have been surprised but I'm so cosmopolitan, and cool), I bring for you three street facts that I lived in my skin lately:
- Estoy convencida de que tengo una doble en Turquía, y además debe ser simpática como yo, porque ayer paseando por la calle más de dos personas me saludaron como si me conocieran desde que soy bebé, pero ellos ni me sonaban. Creo que la pobre chiquilla va a tener unas palabras con sus amigos porque yo, escamada, ni saludaba y me iba rápido como quien escapa de un violador.
- Últimamente no sé si es que estoy obsesionada con el español o es que empiezo a entender turco, porque a veces la gente (turca) habla por la calle y mi cerebro lo procesa como español, o empiezo a estar loca, lo cual es probable también. Por ejemplo, ayer pasé delante de un portal con un lugareño borracho al que se le había caído la cerveza por toda la acera e iba con converse de verano y juro que escuché al tío borracho decir: NO PISE, NO PISE. Miren, yo no sé si dijo eso o qué dijo, pero mi cerebro lo procesó tal que así y no pisé el desastre. Lo que sea, !!!Litrito salvada de la cerveza!!! (vaya ironía, eh).
- Ya soy toda una ciudadana, sí, en un mes ya me siento con valor suficiente para echarme siestas en la guagua, lo cual es muy típico aquí, porque como pilles tráfico te tardas 2 horas para un trayecto de 12 kms. (lo mismo que si fueras andando, pero la siesta en la guagua con calefacción es más rica). Ya dije que aquí hay muchísimos atascos y nada mejor para sobrellevarlos que hacerte colega de quien esté sentado a tu lado en la guagua y ayudarse mutuamente a echarse la siesta. Lo de hacerse colega es por las caídas de cabeza jaja. Por cierto, tengo que decirles que el otro día en una guagua, !!!se caló!!! ¿Alguien había visto alguna vez una guagua calándose? Es bastante brusco, total, quería compartir esta experiencia callejosa con ustedes, que les quiero mucho.

- I'm convinced that I have a twin girl in Turkey, and also she must be friendly like me, because yesterday having a walk in the street more than two people said hello to me, like if the know me since I'm a baby, but I didn't even recognize them. I think that the poor girl is going to have a few words with her friend because me, a bit scared, I didn't say hi and go so quick like if I was scaping from a rapist.
- Lately I don't know if I'm obssesed with Spanish or that I'm beginning to understand Turkish, because sometimes people (Turkish) speak in the street and my brain processes it as Spanish, or maybe I'm starting to be crazy, which is also probably. For example, yesterday I passed in front of a gate where a drunk local person was sitted and his beer had fallen down to the floor and I heard that man saying: NO PISE, NO PISE (in Spanish that means, don't set foot there!). Look, I don't know if he said that or what he said, but my brain processed it that way and I didn't step on that mess. Whatever, Litrito saved from beer! (what an irony, ah).
- Now I'm an entire citizen, yeah, in a month I'm feeling brave enough to take naps in the bus, which is very typical here, because if you are trapped in a traffic jam it takes you two hourse for a 12 kms. way (the same as if you go walking, but the nap in the bus with the heater is more pleasant). I've said that here there are many traffic jams and nothin better to cope with them than become friend with the person sitting next to you and help each other to take the nap. Becoming friend with that person has it reason in don't leting your head fall down. By the way, I have to tell you that the other day in a bus it stalled, has anyone seen a bus stalling? It's quite abrupt and strange, that has never happened to me before.
