i love those old-fashioned styled lampshades............

r.e. boxes

i am afraid i did not make myself clear enough when describing the 8M box project........

those coloured post-its which covered the boxes where all had-written with gender inequalities and stereotypes present in today's spanish society.............some of them really really unfair

so, destroying them meant wanting to get rid of those stereotypes and bringing a change to the world........to their world............

that is why there where blue envelopes with purple post-its inside where they had hand-written the changes that they wanted to see...........at home, at shcool, in society.............

i am so sorry my words made you believe it was quite the contrary.............

if that had happened, those students would have been expelled from school for a long period of time, for sure.....................

obviously we took picture of everything to share them on social media, where everything is well explained....nothing like the bad explanation i made.............!!!!..........so sorry...............

r.e. antifreeze

i imagine it is antifreeze because it has got the same colour of the antifreeze liquid i use for my car...........i have an small antifreeze tank next to my motor engine that has to always be full.......do not ask me why because we never get temperatures cold enough to freeze even pools in the streets.............

re. upside down

that picture is the ceiling of the ramen restaurant we went to last friday......the picture itself is upside down.............

re. 8M

it means march the 8th.........international women's day...........

now that you know the whole story well, you could have a look at the 8M posts again.......and i hope you enjoy them now.........so sorry to have caused you so much suffering and concern..............

re. maximo, the teacher

'hacía loca- fría'........i imagine you meant something like 'the cold was crazy' or 'it was chilling'.............in spanish we would say something like 'hacía un frío de locos'............

re. maximo, the teacher
Espero que no se decepcionen (that type of verb conjugation with the verb in the third person plural to refer to a second person singular sounds like mexican to me........in spanish we do not use it that way)...........a third person is a third person and a second person is a second person.......both IRL and in the verb pattern, which has to match the reality you are talking about.......................

espero no decepcionarte..............

El jardín y la terraza recibieron unos 35 cm de nieve

El jardín y la terraza TENÍAN unos 35 cm de nieve.............

re. maximo, the teacher
