Welcome to Gaia! ::

yum

Asada fries. I hope you've tried these Aoi.

Get them from like Alberto's or something. They're like chili cheese fries but with carne asada.

It's not that great. It's a fast food mexican place. I prefer mexican restaurants.

Taco Bell and Del Taco is like.... white people food.

And I think that El Paso and Las Cruces are crawling with fast food AUTHENTIC MEXICAN food places. Like Cruces has a Si Senor express place that sells fast food mexican products, that is related to their most popular Mexican restaurant Si Senor (awesomeness). Haven't been there though. And El Paso, got knows what they got there, it's mexicans galore. Everyone there speaks Spanish, it'd be hard to find a job there if you don't know spanish.

Um....I doubt your Si Senor is the same as the one here. Theres a Si Senor restaurant here in Alamogordo but they are NOT affiliated with the one in Cruces. And the one in Cruces only has another chain restaurant like it in some town in Arizona, that's it. And they mostly use hatch green chile, which is New Mexican-based, which I doubt your Si Senor place uses.

And Spanish-speaking is rediculous. My brother Blaine is a math teacher in Gadsden High School in Anthony, New Mexico, yes still in new mexico, about 15 miles away from El Paso downtown, and he has to teach like ESL math classes. And as of now, he now has to get stupid some extra kind of certification within a year to be allowed to teach ESL classes if he wants to continue working at the Gadsden district, they just enacted that like a few months ago. Only when he went there. And he already is having soo many problems with some of the stupid mexican kids there. He even resigned cuz one of the students he had wanted to leave and was mad and was all cussing at him in spanish in stuff, he grabbed her backpack and supposedly hurt her arm, so she's all like going to like press charges against him with the police in s**t, so a few days ago he resigned so he wouldn't be fired. It's a horrible district. He wanted to work in Cruces, but woudln't hire him cuz he didn't have enough experience, but he hopes that'll change now that he has 1 year of it now.

I've never even known that they sell products sold in like stores in stuff. I've only heard of Roberto chips sold in grocery stores in Cruces. Robertos is also another major mexican restaurant competitor to Si Senor in cruces. But my mom and me ate there one time and she hated it. She said SI SENOR is KING!!! She will like do anything to make her food taste like Si Senors. And Robertos is kinda crappy, you order something at a counter like at a fast food place, rather than be seated at a table and give you a menu like at Si Senor. So crappy. Taco Cabana (El Paso, Cruces) does the same thing. We ate there and had the most crappiest service available. My grandparents even had to get to the stupid workers since they didn't even know English much since we ate at one in El Paso. Horrible!!!!!!!! Stupid illegal immigrants.

I don't know. I have no idea how weird mexican ppl work here. I don't know. I just know that many mexicans come over here from Juarez Mexico to move into El Paso, Texas or Las Cruces, NM cuz they don't have to go through border patrol. Only to get into the country. That's it.

So yeah. I think that Las Cruces and El Paso are isolated from the rest of the US since it is like Mexican central....since they move here and can get any job they want, all they have to do is speak somewhat English to get around. That is probably why I couldn't get a job anywhere in Cruces, cuz I didn't speak Spanish well. They would hire Bilingual ppl over me anyday. Which is why I am back in Alamogordo, NM. Since you have to pass the border patrol to get to here or anywhere else in NM.
