i learned to read english by collecting comics. i'ld buy comics everytime my parents gassed up at a convieance store, it"s rae to find that now here in texas. comics and candy!!! (spanish is my first language)
i spent my childhood wearing superman underroos and a cape my mom made me, i'ld wear it on the swings and jump off or i'ld run all day long or on my rollerskates tying to leave the ground.
when inside i'ld talk into a recorder like an alien, filled with giggles and burps out of my cardboard box that was a space ship.
i was a latchkey kid so i spent alot of my time watching cartoons, coloring in coloring books, and drawing in sketch books all by myself.
i remember always waking up at 5in the morning on saturdays grabing a box of frosted flakes and staring at the color bars before the cartoons turned on.
snorks, Jem, smurfs, Thundercats, superfriends, visionaries, and my favorite THE GETALONG GANG!!!
in winter i'ld sleep with my jacket and bluejeans and boots on. my mom would come into the room when i fell asleep to take off my boots. I liked to sleep with the window open right angled at my face for the freash air. i imagined all the time it seems, i still do.
my parents would buy me toys or i'ld get them for free cause' my dad worked for fisher price.
i used to climb trees and hide on other peoples roofs. i was the best at hide and go seek; i could hide for hours and hours. i used to ride my bike all across town or skateboard in circles on the pavement. Unfortunately i burned a few ants with a magnafing glass.
My mom would always by me a ball at HEB. (like the ones in my LJ) she'ld buy me coloring books, and sketchbooks.
I would pretend and makebelieve all the time when i was by myself. In school i'ld be the quietesst and stilless little boy. I had a bowl haircut and i like to dress up in a tie and jaket. I looked like AC/DC with pantshorts on and tall socks. I made A's all the way till puberty kicked in and lost myself to the woman or young ladies respectively.
OH and CANDY was a major food group. mmmm nerds. I LIKED music videos alot.
oh i toatally listened to phill collins and genesis and loved the pet shop boys of which i'ld listen to late at night on my headphones cause i have always been an insomniac.
that"s little me, but big me still does alot of the above.
(trailed you from modest mouse lj, hoope you don"t mind... take alook at my lj, if you decide to add me, i'll add ya back) peace. :)

You are one of the most interesting kids I've ever heard of. It's cute how you learned English. I couldn't imagine being a little kid and having to learn another language. My friend, Jay, was almost left back in kindergarten because he couldn't handle learning another language so young.
I loved music video's, too. They were so much more interesting when we were little - like, with actually story lines. Video's now don't keep my attention unless it's Christina Aguilera dancing around half naked.
