This morning i got on a bus to Caracas (venezuela's capital) 'cuase i got some errands to do there.

Actually i'm already there in fact i'm here

i'm staying in one of my mom's friend's house
she's like an aunt to me so she has no problem with me staying
she has one son and one daughter they are twins but we don't really get along well
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
my mother said to me before i left "be nice"
and i said " yeah don't worry i will be nice"

then she said -... and be polite
i didn't quite understand but i said - O.O yeah mom i will be polite

then she look at me like saying "this is the number one rule when you get there" and said -... BE SOCIAL

Ok mom - i said - i'll be social
