- You too develop a habit of singing Shakira very loudly in the shower.
- Watching TV becomes an active dialog( A character in your favorite telenovela is contemplating breaking up with their girlfriend. You tell him not to[it was all a misunderstand!],forgetting that they can't hear you. He doesn't listen. ¡Hombres!)
- You actively look for excuses to say "Pura Vida."
