Rock girl

Rock girl

Sitting on a rock, in Chapultepec.

That day we were walking all around, with a few pauses to rest or take a few photos.
Went all the way up to the Chapultepec Castle, but didn't go inside. Then back down, and around the lakes. And bit of walk to move between points.

After all the walking in chapultepec, went towards Obregon, to have a bit of food. Also there outside was a little market are, so we went there to see the things on display. Bought myself a couple of rings.
Later to eat a cup of coffee and talk, and then being a bit late, my friend take me to my hotel, and they went out to their places to rest.

I only went to my room quickly to leave some things, and out to the street again, it still was early. Went to see something for the camera, in a place near by.
Then back to my room, that time to change clothes and get ready for that night I was to go out dancing again.

Greetings
Jessica

Well we were walking around Chapultepec.

A full day of exercise, both physical with the walking, as mental, to kind of ignore at a start the whistles.

Didn't really bother that much, and I was able to enjoy my happy day outside.

Here a photo I really liked, but a bit unmoral

Saturday with my friend Trixie

Con Trixie

Saturday with my friend Trixie

What did I do on Saturday, since I woke up I already was as Jessica, the plan was to go out with my friend Trixie, and some friends of her.
First , the spooky part, to go out as Jessica on day light, totally different from the usual going out at night.
Then to take a taxi, but It was like a normal thing. I arrived to where I was to meet with my friend. a funny thing happened there.

While I was sending my friend a message, to tell her I was to wait on the other side of the street (me wanting to hide from the sun) , I heard someone started calling "Miss, Miss", but I was like "Oh they are calling someone"
Then a man passing by, tells me, "I think she is calling you", so I look around, and there was a girl in a car. and she asked "Hi are you a, the frind of B". I was thinking "how?? whats going on", so I with my not so calmed voice said to her "no". And she repond all natural , "Oh sorry I thought it was you"
Spooky

Mi friend Trixie with her friend Joanna arrived, then we went to an event Joanna has invited us. A different thing, interesting, but kind of strange. The thing was that we were suppoised to talk, act, and perform the activities with the people there. Interentingly the people there, acted as if me being me, didn't matter. Actually they selected me quite often to be part of the activities.
Finishing that, we passed by for another friend, and then to have a walk in Chapultepec, that where I took this photo woth my friend Trixie.

Tomorrow I will tell about the walk day.

Started on Friday

Inicio el viernes (Con Fernanda)

Started on Friday

So here comes the long,long chronicle to explain a bit about the photo with the costume mascots, and all the other things
Turns out, this weekend I went to Mexico City again, the plan, to spent the most time possible as Jessica, zero time on boy mode (except of course for travel , arrival and departure)

Well everything started Friday, after finally arriving to the place I would be staying, and getting rid of my boy appearance, started what was to be a weekend as Jessica.
A few mobile messages later, I have contacted my friend, and after getting clothes and make up ready, and another failed attempt at doing my hair, went out to wait for my friend Fernanda, my friend from Merida, that by a lucky coincidence was also visiting Mexico City.
From there go to a sanborns, where I was to meet another friend Trixie, and we were there a little bit talking and drinking a bit of coffee. My friend Trixie with another friend arrived, and a bit later my friend Nina Minerva.
After a little while, time to go somewhere else to have a bit more fun, so time to go dancing. Till the night ended
On the way back, a police car asked my friend to stop, to do a check up, but since I been in a similar experience before, no problem there for me.

The photo was in a sanborns, before going to the disco with my friend Fernanda, a big hug to her.

First, I do not know the word in english for the people who used those costumes, the dictionary suggest "mascot costume" as translation for Botarga. So if anyone knows, tell me.

And now, for the photo, is just one more proof that Jessica is sillier and doing more crazy things each day

The Letter

La Carta

The Letter

She remembered seeing those kind of written letters somewhere before, since for long time people did'nt use to wrtie like that, but she couldn't remember where. Also the letter had no name of a sender, or even a post stampo. Must had been personally delivered, but from who. Inside she found a key and a pice of paper, with curiosity she began reading.

Matilde

It is now time to tell you about Arugai. I still remember the day when I realized you were the one that should know the secret. Was that day your mother took you to my home, still a little girl in her arms, but since your eyes saw it, all day long they kept coming back to see it. The following years, in all your visits you always look at it with great concentration, even when you nevr tried to touch it, even when you never asked what it was, it was like if deep inside you, you knew it was important.

Destiny, has chosen that death visitted me before time, and so I will only be able to guide you through my letters, my memories, and my instict that tells me that anything I am not able to write before the time, you will for sure find it out on your own. I am sure, that you lke me, will be able to see the wonders of Arugai.

The key, will allow yo to enter my house, remember that night when the black cat came inside the house, in there I will leave my next letter.

A hug.

And that was all.
No mention of who wrote it, or what house. It looked from the reading it was someone, she know some time ago, and why did that word "Arugai" seemed so familiar to her. What about the letter, why was it delivered to her.

Sea walk

Malecon

Sea walk

Well after the afternoon out on the verbena, went back to my hotel, my plan was to go out again a bit more late to go dancing. So needed to change outfits
I was on that, changing when I received a message on my mobile from a local friend.
So decided after changing to go say hello, and see if I could make my friend go with me. So we agreed on meeting at the seawalk.
And there we were talking, first in my car, then ge wet down and kept talking, until 1 am. At the end didn't went dancing but had a good night talking to my friend.

The photo on the seawalk unfortunately came out totally blurred. :(

Tomorrow I'll post the outfit photo.

Jessica has to talk

Jessica tiene que hablar.


Jessica has to talk

Took me a couple of days away from posting pics, been more than busy at work those 2 days.
So back to my adventure in Campeche, I was starting to feel a tiny bit hungry, so decided I might get something to eat, had to decide between one of the food-place on the garden or go to one restaurant.
Decided that it was less trouble in one of the food places (little cars), so while walking around looked to see what caught my eye.
In one of the places saw a food dish that looked different, so all nervous, managed to make a little of courage, to go closer and ask.

- Good night, whats this food?

And just like if I were just another costumer, the woman on the little car told me it was made of bread and cheese. Jessica had managed to talk, and no get a weird reaction, and so with that, managed to ask for one serving of it and a slice of flan.
Every place, has a few tables for its costumers to sit, so after preparing my order, the woman on the car, asked a girl sitting next outside, to "Can you take this for the miss here to a table", referring to me in female.
But turned out that while I was ordering and paying the table I saw empty was now occupied.
The girl outside, then stand up and said "yo can sit on my chair", me thinking as boy that it was not ok, so said "No thanks, dont want to make you stand"
And looking at me , as if telling her that was weird, she insisted "You sit down pretty, its no problem"

So I sit down, and while eating the women finished serving other costumers, turned to me, and asks "you are not from here, right?"
So I was to continue talking more, and so all nervous I answered, and had with her a little chat.
After finishing my food, I return the girl her char, and she stills tells me "Good luck, pretty one"

Not only all the time I was addressed as female, they even complimented me.

After such a good experience my nervous level went down, so I dared to do bits more, went into a little-jewelry shop and bought a hand-bracelet, and after that bought a "ice-and-fruit" thing.
To enjoy the remaining of my night out as Jessica downtown.

Kisses

On the verbena in Campeche

De verbena en Campeche


On the verbena in Campeche

Well, after being walking around Campeche, trying to pass as tourist, I went to the main square, where at night there is a verbena.
A verbena is an event where there are food stands, singers, and other activities, of course there is a lot of people there.
There goes Jessica, first walking around seeing what was around, and after a bit decided to go sit down for a while.
This time, to not be caught just sitting there looking to nowhere, I took a book with me, to read a little while listening to music, stopping from time to time to look around, try to catch something from the people passing by, but I couldn't notice any reaction towards me being there.
Even a couple of times, people sat down at the same bench I was.

After a bit more time, decided to make another walk around, and also to get something to eat for dinner, a thing that required me talk and interact directly with people, scary.
I'll tell tomorrow how that went on.

Jessica walking in Campeche

Originally, I was to be grounded on the island this weekend, but upon the development of a process on friday, I figured out I could take off saturday after lunch hour, so without much planning, Jessica decided to go as tourist to Campeche city.
An so it was like that, that a little more late than expected, the biological entity arrived to campeche, and after finding a place to sleep, to get a shower, and do the makeup, Jessica was ready to go out on the streets
Little note, originally I planned to use white leggings, but since they were too much transparent for my liking, I decided to wear brown. Yes even looking monochromatic.

And with a little of light, I arrived downtown, and went walking around, trying to be one more tourist. And apparently that part went fine.

A little later, as night was falling down it was time to go to main square, and enjoy the little activity there, a thing that would make me interact with people.
What was the outcome of that??? well I will be telling the next days (I have to write something to go wit the photos, jejeje)

SailBoat

This boat is the "Raga Queen", actually a day before I took this picture, I went on a snorkelling tour, and was lucky that the trip was on that boat. Unfortunately I only carried the underwater camera with me, so no pictures from the deck.

The movement on the sail boat, is totally different from the ones with motor outside. I liked the little trip, plus the snorkelling in hol Chan was awesome.

Went to Caye Caulker again, to do some more snorkelling, eat great food.
It was a great trip, Only sad thing is that it only lasted 4 days (minus transportation times).

Had few new experiences, went snorkelling at night, also did the discover diving thing, which had definitively put in my mind that definitively this year I am going to get the PADI diving certification.

A few days in paradise.

Trying another style, without color, well there is a bit of color. But mostly is gray and black.

Ps, I think the skirt is actually more a dress, but I bought it thinking it was a skirt. So I tried here as skirt, covering a bit with the black thing.
