Did everyone have a happy Cinco de Mayo? Because mine certainly was pleasant.
Cinco de Mayo is a funny holiday. It's a holiday that Mexican culture doesn't actually celebrate that much, but brings the people of the United States into a tizzy. Why do we care about holidays that don't matter that much to other countries? Wouldn't those in Ireland care about St.Patrick's Day more than us? (Then again, the whole basis of how the legend works is skewed.) The point is, Americans like to have a holiday to party.
I'm all for holidays for partying. It can make a boring weekend much more enjoyable. Pretty much my mindset is to make a holiday for every occasion... Then again, I'm a college kid. We like having an excuse to party.
One random holiday that I like is National Peanut Day. Why would I like such a random holiday, you ask? Welp, that's actually my birthday. I like having something else fall on my birthday as well.
Other than that, I don't have a whole lot to say so I'll leave it at that. I hope everyone had a happy Cinco de Mayo!
What random holiday do you celebrate? How did you spend your Cinco de Mayo?
