Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @Ocasio2018 19h19 hours agoOne thing I really appreciated about my time with @Univision today (besides practicing my Spanish) is that they were the first major outlet to ask me how I defined myself, instead of assuming it for me.
That opened up a totally different conversation.
Gracias, @jorgeramosnews!

...and thanks for the interview today, Alexandria. That made my day 😉

Theres nothing like walking into the bodega, grabbing an iced cafecito, chopping it up with everyone behind the counter + appreciating the dude whos blasting Oye Como Va through his backpack speaker.
In this small moment, nothing else matters. Today is a good day.

OK. I had to use google translate to come up with this, but I have been practicing with Duolingo. It's a lot more fun than playing candy crush or any of those time waster games.
