Carnivals:
Good or bad memories
When I was a child, carnivals were a party that for me was like halloween, christams or new year. It was a parade eith costumes , parties and desorder. I really never found the big deal about it.
I remember that I never liked them and my mom was always theremaking me go to the "La Batalla de Flores" and "La Guacherna".
Those were four eternal hours sitting on a hard chair made out of wood with a very unpleasant noiseof music and cheering people.
Later on when I was about 14 years old, when I started to hang out with frineds without my parents supervision and be able to be part of the desirder, it started to look kind of good. While years went by, and I went growing in age and responsability, with more freedom by my parents, it got even better.
So there I have been, having fun with my friends, finding them in every corner and having one of the best days in the year, but, in "El Garabato", because I still doubt about the other two.
