Cinco de Mayo is a Mexican holiday that commemorates the Mexicans victory against the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862.

Out here in Boston, Cinco de Mayo is another reason for people to get drunk and be silly. I myself had a date Miss Margarita over here and had a blast.

I usually do not allow myself to get as drunk as I got yesterday but last night I threw all caution to the wind. I'd just finished my second semester at Berklee and I'd just come from watching an incredible performance by Sting (more on this later) and, well, it marks the beginning of my first summer here in the States.

Wow. I actually did it. I managed to be a good Berklee student for a whole year. I never thought I still had that in me. I guess self-congratulation is in order? Anyway, I'm still hungover and i have one final exam to (ahem) ace so... yeah. Cinco de Mayo was fun.

**Jeline made me a very nice testimonial over at friendster.com. Really appreciate it, mai-shi. Although I REALLY would like to know... WHAT'S SO FUNNY ABOUT ME!?**
