Another Confession

I am completely addicted to this Telenovela. I'm ashamed to admit that it started on my mission. I saw bits and pieces of it in Ecuador (it was re-running there) and was always slightly curious. I got home and watched what I could find, but that wasn't much. Well, I'm not exactly sure how I found it again last week, but I started at the beginning and am slowly but surely devouring every episode.

It's just as horrible as the stereotype. You think american soaps are bad... they've got nothing on Telenovelas. But I can't stop! I know they end up together, because it's obvious, but I have to find out how! How is she going to forgive him? Will she ever tell him that Frijolito is his son? What about his fiance and her evil (seriously evil) mother? Will they ruin everyone's lives? Can Francisco get over his wife? Will Dulce and Daniela ever get along? What if Margarita marries Francisco instead of Ignacio?! Will Don Pedro and Angelica ever love each other? And then there's little Frijolito. He's so freaking CUTE!

The one upside is: I'm speaking Spanish by accident again.

I have a lot of other things to say (mostly about books), but I'm still trying to figure out what to say exactly. That's why I haven't written for so long: I'm trying to be profound. ...not that this post shows much of that. :)
