oscar's life   Friday, April 04, 2008 2:37 AM posted by Oscar   Look out world, Oscar has his own twitter account now (twitter is sort of like a blog, but the entries are a lot shorter). http://twitter.com/osquitar Sorry, anglophones, it's only in Spanish right now, but I don't think it will be long before he wants to write in English... Quick updates: His collarbone is totally healed (broken a few months back). He's eating a million times better since we found out that he's allergic to eggs (that medical revelation dates back to December). He's also allergic to dogs and cats. This year we read Watership Down, Historia de cronopios y famas, El principito (The Little Prince), James and the Giant Peach, a book on Greek mythology, Alice in Wonderland, The Animal Family, parts of Don Quixote, tons of poetry...and lots more that I'm probably forgetting. Right now we're into Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. His best friend right now is Gabriel. He's a kindred spirit and they play games on the playground like: Robot 577 and the Robot of Time, the secret mine and the meaning of time, Magical Bunny, Spirit World, Gravity, and probably many more that he hasn't told me about. His "belief system" (as he likes to call it) involves a world full of spirits (I think he may be Shinto or druid, but I really don't know enough about either to say for sure). The spirit that he feels closest to is called "The Magical Bunny." She manifested her presence on earth on his birthday. Hopefully he'll write about it (he's already drawn hundreds of drawings about her--yes, she's a she), because being a non-believer, it's hard to me to grasp. He also feels a close spiritual connection to volcanoes and dinosaurs. And he's obsessed with the origin of time and the universe. He recently said his heroes are Neil Degrasse Tyson and Manu Chao.
