Casarme

So two dominicans asked me to marry them today.

First of all there is this ‘classic’ Dominican movie titled Hanky Panky. It is about this Dominican guy named Sanky Panky who really wants to marry an American girl, basically so he can get a green card and move to the US. He gets a job at a resort to meet girls. The thing truth is not far behind.

My community service class was cancelled so I thought I would wonder downtown. The first I was walking toward Calle del Sol after volunteering at the hospital and this guy, at least 6 inches shorter than me, started walking along side me and we start talking. Where are you from? What do you study? Oh you are beautiful and speak really good spainsh!! The normal… When he found out he was only 10 years older than me he said I should marry him so he can be like Sanky Panky. I said no I’m sorry I’m not ready to marry anyone right now. He was sad but asked me if he could call me sometime. I lied and said I didn’t have a cell phone, and walked into the next store I saw. (where I bought some earrings for about $1.50, I was excited about that). So then to head back to the university I got in an M concho. I guess I took it the wrong way because it took forever to get there. All the other passengers had gotten out of the car and the driver stated talking to me. The first thing he asked was if I like the country and the second thing he asked was if I would marry him. Oh no not again. This guy would not let it go. For the next 15 min I he kept making me explain why I didn’t love him and why I didn’t want to marry him. I kept trying to change the subject but whenever there was a lull in conversation he would bring it up again. Talk about guys being forward. I thought I was use to the priopos and guys coming up and talking to you, but two marriage proposals in a day through me off.
