Good..

It´s good to get to spent time with my fellow IIS... the congress was somehow boring, the hearings, the workshops and the conferences were not really that great. I suppose this things are designed for younger guys than I… "fresh" in this. Although most of the things that I've heard I already kwen, it's worth it 'coz I have had the change to get to know tons of people. That is and always will be: good times. Besides, the amount of pretty ladies in IIS is much much bigger than I've thought!

Friday night I had to turn down a couple of offerings from parties related to the congress because I went to an indie fest were Sappho played. Great. Great. Great. This guys are really getting better and I’m proud of being a loyal groupie to the band (I think I’ve never missed a Sappho concert). Anyways… a good concert with good company. Almost all of my friends was there (the really good friends) and of course Mariel was with me. I gotta tell you, that girl has lots of surprises under the sleeve and she’ll never cease to amaze me. Good… really Good “kissu session” when I gave her a lift back home. We had some problems with the blues though… but surely good times and memories.

Saturday. Get up early and went to the concert. Then I watched a movie with Mariel. Finding Neverland. The poor thing couldn’t stop crying for a while… we had one of those times when we just hug for a while in silence and after 20 minutes or so. That was the first time I saw her cry… so I was kinda shocked at the beginning, but after a while I just got comfortable enough and was able to share that moment with her. It’s great to be able to hold someone as she cries… just be there.

Then we went to eat something and then I dropped her home. No “kissu time”, he he he, we were being… errr… cautious.

Saturday ended up quite early… I was very tired so I didn’t feel like going out with Blanco, or staying up until late at Pancho’s… so I went back to my house and sleep.

Sunday… argh… getting up early again to get together with some classmates to do a team project. Good God I hate those. And I really didn’t have the time to rest this weekend so I feel worn out and tired… and it’s just monday ¬-¬

Good thing about Sunday was going to “el Rancho”… hehehehe… good food and company and we had the chance to be adventurous… jumping all around, throwing things… climbing trees… not being able to get down from trees… my brother throwing things at me while I was trying to get down… Carrying a fallen tree… giving it to my brother and watch him how he made a fool of himself by not being able of holding it in front of Wend… he he he… almost getting myself killed/wet by trying to climb a wall… managing it ^-^… helping others to climb… seducing cows… good times.

After “el rancho” we had icecream.. and by we I mean Mariel, Wend, Hector and I… and then we headed home…

I am tired…

Dense...

Well yesterday was a pretty neat day... well, most of it. The night was dense.

School was a joke... as always. Not in a bad sense of course... but tuesdays and fridays it doesn't feel like school at all. It feel different. Like a playground. My few classer are simply: fun. One of them is really practical. Messing around with different materials in a lab, literally playing with all these machines and seeing things in a microscope that I didn't think I could ever see. Like molecules. Those things are feisty and really difficult to see and probably that's reason why is so cool to see them.

My second class... well is soooo easy, that I can simply ignore the teacher and play in the computer. This last partial I didn't even paid attention to any of the classes and I got a 99!!! that is like one of the highest grades I've got in this last couple of semesters.

And well... the day after Valentine's is good. Especially when Mariel is all fuzzy/loving/cute/ in love 'coz I managed to surprised her really hard.

Good times playing Lunar. God I've forgotten how much I loved RPG's.

But... the night... well. In the night there was a point when my brother and I just laughed 'coz I realized that thinking about team projects was a "happy thought" compared to the shit that was going on with Kike. That guy is really strange and he... well I don't get him. The way he usually sees things and feel them is just... weird. He is really bad and relationships and he is having a hard time fitting into my family.

I really hope things work out for the best. Whatever happens, if it is for the best, I'll support it. , if it is for the best, I'll support it.

Valentine's Day...

Well, I have always tended to dislike holidays 'coz of the hypocrisy of them. The whole "I need an excuse to get together, and excuse to be nice" We really don’t need and excuse for this things… and besides this “Valentine’s Day” is supposed to be about love and friendship… not only love, and people without a “special someone” tend to have a really sucky day, and I hate to see some of friends depressed and all… but still, a day such as this is worth celebrating. Despite the double standards, the lonely miserable people and the money expending… I like “the vibe” (yikes!!! I sounded too much like my bro).

I wanted to surprise Mariel, so I told her I really hated this day. But.

But I made the necessary arrangements to buy some Pocky (her favorite candy) and went through lots of problems to wrap them (I wanted to make it look original, and believe me… when I want to be original at something… well there is nothing that can stop me ^-^).

As is this whole day was plotted against me… shitty things started to happen. In my school they decided to present the new “Who knows what” and forced all high school students to attend to an auditorium… so I couldn’t see her in the morning. As soon as I knew that the conference was over I started looking for her… but I couldn’t find her!!! SHE WAS NO WHERE AROUND! And she didn’t pick up her cell phone. I must have spent a good couple of hours, with the pocky melting under the sun looking all over for her. I was beginning to fell… upset.

After what I swear were two hours under the sun looking all over for her I got one of her friend’s cell phone number and I called her. She told me that Mariel left early to one of her girl friend’s house…. DAMN IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I called Mariel to Marilyn’s and talked to her… she told ‘coz I told her I didn’t like this day she went to her friend’s house.

That’s what happens to me for trying to make a surprise. Of course she is not to be blame… neither do I… err… none is to blame.

I talked to my dad about the possibility of skipping my 7-10 pm class to go see her… he didn’t agreed and them gave me the whole “grades speech”. Blah.

After a while, around 8 pm I decided to fuck class and go with Mariel, but of course thing weren’t to be easy for me: Quique decided to wait for me and leave home at 10 pm… THANK YOU FUCKING MUCH SHIT HEAD!

My brother offered to pick him up… but I didn’t want him to change his plans just ‘coz Quique wasn’t man enough to go home and face my dad (apparently Quique got himself into lot of problems and was avoiding him ‘coz my dad told Quique that he wanted to have a chat with him). I couldn’t just leave Quique behind… and I really wanted to see Mariel… so I decided to go see her and then return to pick Quique up and be back at home before my dad could suspect anything about me skipping class. ARGH!

I did it… I was able to go and see Mariel, give her a kiss, a hug and her present… and spent a little, A LITTLE, time with her. I was able to stick around from 8:30 to 9:15 approx.

It was troublesome and hard but it was worth it.

So my lesson for the day: “if you want to surprise someone make sure it would work and stop saying that you don’t care when you do.”

So very tired... O.O

"Excellence is not something that you achieve once. Excellence is a constant practice" - Aristoteles

These days are promising. They promise to be tiresome days, but I guess that if I really want to achieve a certain level of excellence I'll have to put up with them.

School is quite hard this semester. With my awful schedule and the tons of homework and team projects... bah! I knew where I was getting into when I decided to study here, and am starting to like my career. It is not like I want to really spent my life as an industrial engineer, but lately I've being attending some hearings about fellow industrials engineers that have really made it in life... and wow, I really want their jobs and the kinda of things that they do. People usually tell me that we are heartless bitches that all we do is count gears and stuff... but once you made it to a respectable management level, you can have te opportunity to really make the difference in lots of things: in human resources, in plant capacity, work philosphy, quality, customer’s voice, etc... Anyways, things that enable you and your company not only to improve your workers life, but the whole society around you. It's a long way ahead...but one day I'll be able to contribute something to this world.

Besides, subjects this semester are kinda interesting... I just have a couple of boring ones, the rest are OK.

In the other hand I've started working part time... I'll be paid almost nothing (like 2000 pesos per month if lucky) , and I'll have pretty shitty hours... hehehehe... getting up early, working all morning and studying in the afternoons, and coming home to lots of homework. Bad times for that, but with this lil job of mine I'll be able to save money which is goooooood. I've being staying up 'till 1 am these last few days... I just hope things get better or I'll become some sort of zombie!!!! MUAJAJAJAJA...

And excersice... damn!!! it feels good! ^-^ I just wish I had more time to do it... somehow three times per week doesn't feel enough...

On the plus side... TODAY IS MY FIFTH MONTH celebration with Mariel ^-^ She is really great and I am grateful for that. I just hope my whole going abroad things wont massacre our relationship U_U ... God knows that I don't want that. So keep your fingers crossed for me.

The wheel is in motion...

Both my brother and Blanco have new posts. And I felt compelled to write something too. By the way bro, now that I see how shitty you are feeling right now, I am really sorry for using your pants w/o asking first. So sorry.

Half and hour ago I turned out all the papers that I needed to go and study in Canada. Finally. I am very excited and also a little scared about the whole going abroad thingy. It's going to be my first time, and well, things get a little fuzzy in my stomach when I think that I might be living on my own, cooking on my own, doing laundry, etc... Also there is the BIG detail called Mariel, I am beginning to miss her already, and sometimes I feel kinda bad about going and leaving her behind, but this is something that I've dreaming to do for a long time, and I'll fight 'till my dream is fully accomplished or totally shattered. I wont accept nothing in between.

I just hope my bro doesn't get a new chair or something... he he he.

Living in Canada is going to be somehow expensive. I've being doing some research, and renting a room and the University will cost like $ 450 CAN and I'll be needing like $ 150 CAN for living expenses per week... so that leaves a grand total of $ 900 CAN per month, so lets bring it up to $1000 CAN per month (juts for the sake of buying things).

I know… I know. I can live with much less money than that, but I always tend to study the “worst case scenery”, If I’m able to survive with much less then I’ll save lots of money! Maybe I’ll be able to cut the living expenses to $100 or $75 per week, and if lucky I’ll find someplace much cheaper to live. I really want to stay at the campus though, that is where all the fun, drinking, gaming and sex is… hehehehehe

I maybe able to save around $1000 CAN this semester, so I'll still be short $3,000... plus the plane fare. So heck!!! I just hope my dad knows where is he getting into. I'll be needing lots of money.

Wish me luck!!!!
