Chicane in the movies vs. Toy.
I think she's just neat! It's also the fee cars to last through all four movies (until its inevitable destruction in the last one 😔). Also heard somewhere the toy is really expensive/hard to get.

how do you pronounce "aurelia"?
this is a complicated question for me. i use the spanish pronunciation of /au-ˈɾe-lja/ when i introduce myself, even when asked to repeat it. i still feel a bit guilty that i don't correct people when they use the anglicised pronunciation of /ə-'ɹ̠eɪ-li-ə/, but i just can't find it in my heart to do it, especially due to the way that spanish names have transformed in my family. like many other families in the southwest with mexican heritage, we have experienced something called language shift, and we all now exclusively use english to communicate. but, of course, there was a bit of an in-between period with my grandfather's generation, and this interesting thing happened where certain relatives might have two different spellings and pronunciations of their own name, depending on what language they were using in a certain context. i think it is mainly for this reason that i can't bring myself to correct people who call me /ə-'ɹ̠eɪ-li-ə/ and reply, "yes, that's right!" when they say it that way after expressing doubt about pronouncing it correctly.
but it does make me happy when people call me /au-ˈɾe-lja/, because it shows me that they want to make an extra effort to respect my cultural identity. for people who have difficulty pronouncing the alveolar tap (aka rolling your Rs), there are ways that you can practise! did you know that this sound actually occurs in english? yes, it's true! take the words "ladder" or "better", for example. in american english, we don't really pronounce these words with a full D or T sound in regular speech. there's a bit of a different sound there, and it's also an alveolar tap, just like in spanish. keep this in mind and try saying these words to yourself if you want to pracise this sound. it is possible and you are capable, i promise! ❤️
but also, ain't nobody got time to give everyone they meet a linguistics lesson, and who wants to hear people complain about how their name is "impossible" to pronounce all the time? so, /ə-'ɹ̠eɪ-li-ə/ is fine too, and due to said language shift, most people in my family call me that anyway. if my own family uses that pronunciation, how can i correct others?
or who knows, maybe i should? i'm still conflicted. perhaps some day i'll gain the courage. 🤷🏻‍♀️

untitled piece
soy un niño <<no sabo>>. i did not learn this phrase until i started using social media. before that i had to rely on the english “my mother never taught me.” but perhaps it is best to start at the beginning.
genesis.
i was born to a mexican immigrant mother and a white american father. they are fine people but that is beyond this. my memory of my youth is foggy, without definite shapes, times, or recordations. my mother tells me she could not teach me spanish, because i refused it as a baby; much how a graft does not take to a tree. as a very young child i did not understand the ramifications of being chicane. to be white but not entirely. an undefinite other. during a month long trip to mexico with my abuela (one of the few spanish words i knew), a trip which i do not entirely remember, i had eaten nothing but plain cheese quesadillas because i refused to try foods i was unfamiliar with. in school i had taken a great deal of pride in my chicanismo despite not knowing spanish. i also often conflated mexicanismo with nahua culture; i had often imagined mexico as simply a modern indigenous country where they had maintained the customs of the aztecs and other nations, my understanding of colonization would come much later. it is around this time that my mother tells me i refused to learn spanish, in english this time.
malinchismo.
when one becomes an adolescent, around ten or sometime later, one begins to form the identical foundation on which their character will be built. it was then i had become attached to the juvenile concept of cosmopolitanism, believing myself to be not a part of any grand culture group, regarding america not as a nation or ideology but simply a place in which i lived. to be american, i thought, was to just live in america. i had met other people like me, children born to dominican, puertorican, cuban, nicaraguan parents but who spoke broken or no spanish. but i had still not understood that we formed a part of the whole, perhaps out of my own lack of understanding or my internal shame of not actively participating in american latin culture. this pattern continued through the last years of high school.
exiting the cave.
my ideological development began in the last two years of schooling, i had come to understand that the current state of society would not allow for equality, and that those at the top of the societal pyramid were to blame. but i still found myself identifying as mexican american, not truly understanding what either of those words meant. when i began college, with access to more books than i could reasonably read, i was entranced. for one course or another, i checked out a number of books; the labyrinth of solitude being the principal of these. i only read the first few pages, where paz discusses the pachucos and their “in betweenness” being the basis of their identity, and i found some comfort in that, but also an intellectual hunger had begun to fester. i registered for spanish classes the next year.
impresent day.
“no hablo español, lo siento.” my spanish, even after a couple years of studying, is very stilted, my voice carries my uncertainty within it. i still struggle with accepting this. there is a terrible shame in being unable to read márquez, paz, azuela, magón, o sor juana in their tongue, there is an unspeakable embarrassment in having your fucking boyfriend translate the poetry of gloria anzaldúa or sandra cisneros. but i will get over it. my spanish will always be that of a twenty something who got started too late, but it’s okay. no es una cosa.

There are some musicians whose introductions don't change much in the long run. For instance, Chicane had a great debut and his career is still going on, but we mustn't forget – the LPs don't matter for him. Yes, I'm selling them short – they're fine, most of the times –, though he belongs on a dance floor, which means that any album can mostly serve as an approximation of him concerting. Remember what I said a long time ago – the players like him, i.e. trance DJs, have their own set of rules, they have their own world to attend to, where the outside doesn't really equate much. While the idioman visit the charts, they do not mean much to their gigs, which remain the main reason for their tunes. True, I may be overexagerrating here, the reality is somewhere else.
