And I tell you it don't mean jack:.

Good day at the amazing Texcoco, though there's no much you can do outside I really enjoyed hanging around with my family. Today we even tried some of that english tea that I brought home, and to our delight it was really good!!:.

Today I was also supposed to start working again, but because of the influenza paranoia I'll have to postpone that till May 5th, well, at least I had the chance to see where I'll be working, and all I can say is that it's really far from my house, I can only imagine the mess it will be around that area once the traffic is back to the apocalyptic Mexico city!!:..


At worst I feel bad for a while
But then I just smile
I go ahead and smile

To the left, to the left:.

Today I had the chance to meet with two founders of the mythical CoyoSoft, it was really nice catching up with them and see that their entrepreneur spirit is higher than ever!!:.

Tomorrow is back to work for me, unless the influenza-paranoia decides otherwise:..


Standing in the front yard telling me
How I'm such a fool, talking about
How I'll never ever find a man like you
You got me twisted

Quizá no fue coincidencia encontrarme contigo:.

There are days when things don't go out the way you expected, and today was one of those for me. First of all the Red Ring of Dead made it's way to my loyal Xbox, and as today I have a useless piece of Microsoft hardware!!.

I was preparing for some good vacations back home, but then someone at everis phoned me to tell me I was expected at some Telefonica project several days ago, say that again!!, and so I had to phone the project manager and ask him what was I expected to do. As a result of this I'll have to go to the Santa Fe zone next Thursday. It's good because I'll have the chance to keep improving my programming skills, but I'll warn them that I'm not eager to be exploited in any way the consultancy world is used to:.

I was looking forward to watch the Barcelona-Chelsea match, but it wasn't aired on public TV...and what's more, they didn't win and Rafa Márquez will surely miss what's left of this season:..


Esa sonrisa traviesa que vive conmigo,
se que pronto estaré en tu camino.

Yesterday:.

It's physics' day!!:..it's also time to watch again Children of Men, excellent movie:...and of course today is the Barcelona-Chelsea match, go Barça!!:.

The birth and death:.

Well, the influenza paranoia is at its maximum, and because of that I won't go back to work till May 6th!!. A good chance to focus on my exam preparation, just let us hope I won't get infected, though truth be told I don't really think the situation is as bad as the media says it is, there's something else going on though:.

The best replacement for Spotify is definitely 'imeem'. Though it's more in the style of last.fm, here you can create and share playlists, listen to songs you've heard previously, there are no time restrictions and the catalogue is huge, really huge!!, finding some jewels that would otherwise be very difficult to listen to:..long life to imeem!!:.

Great weekend with my family and colleagues. It was really nice meeting again with some of my high school friends, it's been more than seven years since we left school and we still hang around from time to time, I'm glad for that!!:..


of the day.

I'm just waiting till the shine wears off:.

I didn't know, till yesterday, that behind the Auditorio Nacional there are some little theaters, and what's more, that on Thursday it's theater's day, so going there costs you less than going to the movies!!. So yesterday I made the most out of it and went to see 'La exhibicionista', considering it had received good critics. It was totally worth it, though it's basically a 2.5 hours monologue you don't get bored, mainly because they combine different ways of conveying their message: cinema, good music, a good actress and even a motorcycle!!. It's a good option to spend a Thursday's night if you are near the Reforma zone, give it a try:.


You might be a big fish in a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one

Cosas del día a día:.

Learning statistics at a good pace:...I think I'll buy the Physics' book tomorrow!!:..it's a rather controversial book, receiving some bad reviews, but I think the Head First guys know their stuff and they wouldn't ship a bad product, not them:.

We're celebrating Sant Jordi's day, it's a good idea to show that special someone that you care by giving away a book and a flower!!:..by the way, it also applies to your friends and respected ones:.


Porque el tiempo va cambiando pero la gente también,
porque el tiempo va pasando y nunca se va a detener,
porque quedan muchas cosas todavía que aprender,
porque aún queda un camino en la vida que debo escoger.
