He hit me accidentally when he was playing in the classroom; I cried. The teacher made him say sorry because he was too young to instinctively know that what he did hurt me.
During the Christmas play, I played Mary and he played Joseph. We were too young to truly fall in love, but I had enough craziness to be obsessed.

When I was a kid, I wished I was born beautiful. Since I thought my genes had forsaken me, I had to find another way to transform into a swan. I had this crazy idea that imitating the personalities of beautiful people will do the trick. I don’t know why I thought that way, but that led me to imitate characters in cartoons and telenovelas.

Here’s my cousin Juancho eating spaghetti sauce on rice. There is a long history of weird food combos in the Cruz family. Here are some of those stories:
Juancho Eating Leftovers
The dilemma–you cooked too much spaghetti sauce, and you are out of spaghetti noodles. What do you do? Usually, I slice a piece of pandesal, spread spaghetti sauce on each half, add some slices of Quickmelt cheese, then I heat it up in the toaster. My cousin Juancho doesn’t do this. He prefers to put the sauce on top of rice. I thought this was weird; he thought this was totally normal.
