Spanish Movie Nights... Como Agua para Chocolate

Winter is here and what better for the cold weather than a soothing cup of hot chocolate. Get cozy with this Mexican film, based on the book by Laura Esquivel. It is the story of Pedro and Tita and their forbidden love, which takes place on a ranch in Mexico near the Texas border in 1910, during the Mexican Revolution. A drama about tradition, love and cooking. Bring your friends, but leave the children at home as the film can get a bit steamy... and I'm not talking about the hot chocolate.

Quien soy?

Hola, me llamo Paola, tengo 28 anos y vivo en Denver, Colorado. Soy chilena, de Santiago, enseno espanol en un cafe pequenito llamado Hooked on Colfax que esta cerca de mi casa. Cada manana me levanto muy temprano, tomo desayuno, reviso mi correo electronico y voy al cafe, saludo al barista, pido una taza de cafe y me junto con mis alumnos para hablar en espanol.
No tengo perros ni gatos, mi familia vive en Chile y si, los extrano mucho, pero estoy feliz de vivir en esta ciudad, porque hay montanas y buena cerveza, tengo muchos amigos, todos ellos son muy simpaticos, y disfruto mucho de ensenar mi idioma nativo.
Algunas veces, durante la semana, mis amigos y yo nos juntamos para hablar en espanol, jugamos juegos tontos, como hacernos preguntas dificiles en espanol, o adivinar quien es la persona que esta detras de ti. Nos divertimos mucho, y ellos aprenden nuevas palabras cada vez.
Creo que soy una persona que disfruta la vida tal y como viene, me gustan las cosas simples, las mananas soleadas, la brisa suave, los abrazos de los ninos, el cafe dulce, la buena comida y la conversacion con los amigos. Y tu, como eres?
