Apropos of Elie Wiesel, I’m in the strange process of choosing a name for myself that Americans can pronounce. Most automatically call me “ely” (ee-lie, rhymes with fry) but I’m not a big fan. I think I’m going to go with “elie” (eh-lee, rhymes with jelly), which I like the sound of. Plus, I totally dig girlboy names.

A fun thing, renaming oneself. We should do it more often.

I kinda like “ely” though. They’ll end up calling you “E”, but the important thing is that you’re going to SF. Congrats genius friend’s brother! Great Wiesel quote btw. Happy New Year, it seems like a great one for you!

Thanks Diego! Hope to see you around in California sometime (you’ll always be welcome at SF, btw). Don’t take too long to realize your future isn’t in Mexico—your country is there where you aren’t lonely. :)
