Aunque No Te Pueda Ver /// April 13th 2010

This is a song i became obsessed with, i thought i'd post it in here.






Just Listen to the Words

Semana Santa /// April 6th 2010

This post was meant to be written on sunday, however, i barely had time to finish my electricity homework. Semana santa, or Holy week, was this past week. Here in Mexico we get our spring break during holy week. What a relief it was to be able to rest from all the hard work from school, i also had vacation from work, for i go with the school calendar. For those who didn't know, i'm a robotics teacher at WestHill Institute.
I thought i was gonna have a relaxing, break, time for rest; however, a friend of my cousin came over from France, on Tuesday we went to pick her up at the airport in Toluca, which is like an hour away from Mexico City. I had only been to Toluca once in my life, and it was on a school trip to the Bimbo Factory; for those not familiar with that Brand, Bimbo is a Mexican Food Brand that owns many other around the world, it owns the Sunbeam sliced bread brand in The US, for example. So on my way there, i realized that it was beautiful, for the way passes through a foresty landscape. Once we met with her, we were on our way back and we stopped in La Condesa, to eat some Fish.
The Next Day we went to Teotihuacan which is a huge archeological site nearby Mexico city, it is known for its huge Pyramids and the Avenue of the death, it also holds numerous murals and artwork. Teotihuacan was the largest city in the american continent of the pre-columbian era.

It was really sunny that day, i got sunburned, although, at the top of the pyramid it was really fresh and cool. There were a lot of European People and we met a guy from kentucky whom with talked with for a while. On the little pyramid you see in the third picture, there were some dudes
juggling, it was really fun to watch. We stayed there for a while and rested, then we decided to get down and go to Tulancingo, a city located about an hour away. My God Parents live there, so we drove to their restaurant a had Argentinian food. While we were eating my godmother called my grandma and asked her for permission for us to stay in her house, so we did. The next day we went to the Mountains of Hidalgo, which includes towns such as: Huasca, San Miguel Regla, Mineral del Monte, Mineral del Chico, etc. First, we visited the "Prismas Basalticos" which are geometric forms made by the erosion of water on rocks.

The next place we visited is called "La pena del Cuervo" which is a huge rock on top of the mountain and you can stand on it and look at the valley and the forest and it's just beautiful. I didn't take any pictures though, my battery died (sadness). We went to eat at the town and walked around, then we headed for Pachuca, which is the capital city of Hidalgo(The state grandma lives in) and then to Tula(Where grandma lives). We stayed there for the next day, i was really tired, for i had driven long distances for the past 3 days, so i did nothing but sit around, watch TV, Movies, and think of stuff. I thought of all those places that there are to visit in Mexico, i still need to plan a trip just in case. Lets see, Guanajuato, Hidalgo, Nayarit Riviera, Oaxaca, Veracruz, Tabasco, Chiapas, Yucatan Peninsula and the places in between. There are some virgin beaches around that are just beautiful. :D Anyway, on Saturday, We visited several places in Mexico city: Chapultepec, Museums, La Condesa, Coyoacan( They have the best Churros there).

I had Fun, i was able to go to places i had never been to which were absolutely awesome. I went back to school though, i need to finish the semester, and be a junior in august. I can't wait for the summer though, i hope i get to have a lot of fun. I really do.

Equations, Moving, and Life /// March 29th 2010

I started my spring break last Friday, here in Mexico, they have spring break during Holy week.

I haven't done much on my break, lets see. On Friday, i got out of school at 11:30, however i talked to Kelli during my numerical methods class and a little after i got out of classes, i walked out to the small outside cafeteria and tried to show it to her, however, for some reason, my stupid computer doesn't work well with video when it is not plugged to the power. I brought it with me to the library so that i could try to Skype with her, we did for a while, but then i lost her. She doesn't have much reception in her room, she was sitting on Lauren's bed, just to get the most of it. I hope she gets better soon, for she sprained her ankle a few days ago, it must be horrible to walk with crutches. I've never had to, but when i hurt my neck, the neck thing i had to use was so uncomfortable..., plus knowing Kelli, she likes to be running and jumping around. :) once i lost her i was bored for a while, for everyone still had class, walked around, said hi to a few people. Oh btw, it was really funny, for when i was Skyping and talking out loud, everyone was giving me this weirdo look; i could imagine them inside their heads saying: "Why is that guy talking to himself, or to his computer, he must be nuts or something" ha ha.

At 12, R told me she would meet me at the Cafe at 2 pm, so i waited in "Las Quesadillas" ( a little food shop close to the engineering labs) and had myself a torta de milanesa with fries on the side. I met my friend Arturo there, he was about to eat too, we talked and stuff and he passed some movies and TV series onto my computer. Arturo is a really weird guy, he's very nice, but he's weird big time, he's really quiet most of the time, and he says he's got no friends, just mates. But i don't care i know we all who hang out together with him are all his friends.

At 2, i went to the cafe and waited for R, i realized that it was really hot and sunny outside, and i just hate to get sunburned. so i decided to wait in front of the water font in a table with an umbrella. I saw her as she was walking towards the cafe, i was gonna walk up to her there, but then i thought of the Hot sun, and i just yelled her name out. She came and sat next to me, its really funny for she was dressed in green. Ever since i told her i liked how green looked on her, she has dressed in it twice, and i have seen her 3 times ever since then. I don't know if it was a coincidence or something else, i just think its funny. I think it's weird, for the color green has had a lot of influence on my life lately, just a lot of stuff that are close to me are green or have something to do with it. I think i should make up a story or a poem about green.

Later on a group of friends and me went to the movies and saw "How to train your Dragon", it was a really good movie, i liked it a lot. We hung out at Starbucks for a while and then i came back to school, where my friend Carlos went to pick me up, we were about to play Night Gotcha.

It was about the second time that i played Gotcha in my life, none the less at night, it was really fun, i got hit about a dozen times and many of them on my mask, you can see how the paint hits, some of them were on my legs and i got bruises. It was all worth it though, i had lots of fun.

Saturday and Sunday i did nothing... Today, i'm going to call a few friends to see if they wanna go play Basketball, and maybe i'll start out on the green story or poem.

This week was really full of events. I got my grade, which were surprisingly awesome, with exception of Dynamics, i got a 75, it it weren't for that, i would have got a higher average. Right now i have got a 92 average, which is good, but i know i can do better. People call me "Nionio" ni, standing for the letter enie, i don't have it in my keyboard, you know the n with the little ~ on top. "nionio" means Nerd, they don't say it in a mean way however, its just that i always get good marks, and i always want to get higher marks, for me a b is unacceptable, it feels as though i failed.

This week, Tec de Monterrey was dressed in black, two students died in between a shooting outside of school in the Monterrey campus. It's a shame on how some innocent people are killed because of the narcotics traffic and the war between the army and the organized crime. According to the Dean's version, the students walked out of school, they were confused with hitm hit-men en and they were shot by the police. They were hidden at the morgue for two days, and the police was trying to hide their identities, until the university kept pushing for them and the families recognized the bodies. Lately, the cartels and the police have got more violent against each other, for President Calderon is really cornering them, and when any animal is cornered, it tends to be more aggressive and attack. Unfortunately, us innocent regular people, when caught in between, also pay the consequences. I was planning on attending the Monterrey campus, i really wanted to be there, for i would be closer to home, Houston is only 6 hours away. I'd be able to visit every 2 weeks or so, from here, it takes 20 hours by car to get there. However, even though i really want to go there, i won't for now, my mom would get really worried about me if i did. And when my mom gets worried, she tends to get sick. I don't want that. My dad called me really worried, the day following the shooting, asking me not to live in Monterrey, or to just move back home. My family is currently in a bad economical situation, which is why i left in the first place. He was telling me that we'd find a way, and to be honest it sounds really tempting, to go back home and be with my family and friends over there. I pray only that my dad is able to get the job that he wants, it would make our lives way easier.

I sigh when i think of my story, I've passed through so many things you'd never imagine.

I still don't know what i'll do, and while i give it a thought, i'll pass the time caught up in Physics, Differential Equations, Greek letters and my dreams that stand before me.

Anxiety/// March 19th 2010

Woke up one day, i realized something was missing,

The clock kept running, the night was still deep and dark

i wish i knew what was that spark

that could make it all complete

Roll in my bed

put the pillow on my head, turn it so that the cold side

can help to calm me down

Fall asleep, wake up again

sit up, rub my eyes, scratch my ear

what's this thing i fear?

No idea of what it is

can't think clearly, i'm so confused

why did i do, what i have done?

what's the reason, i haven't won

what's a man to do, when he's got nowhere to go

home was long time lost

all i did, it had a cost

i'm not tranquil, i'm not calm

Fall asleep, wake up again

what's the might inside my head?

my heart, enough has bled

and all the things i haven't said

i want to make it all stop

i'm really cold, where's my blanket?

i have it on, i am still cold

i'm shaking, i'm sweating, i'm hot

what is this thing that i have not

Can't sleep, can't breath, can't feel

The empty space for that one thing

the white skin showing, that golden ring

The messy hair, the tired eyes, the lack of sleep

the mark it left, it was so deep

I still don't know what it might be...

My Puente /// March 14th 2010

Okay, so i know i haven't posted anything in a while. To be honest with you i haven't had any free time during the past few weeks, exams and work have kept me really busy. During Exams week i had little time for sleep, literally i slept about 15 hours in 5 days. That's like 2 days worth of sleeping in a whole week. So yesterday, i was very tired, and i got to my grandma's house and watched Pinocchio with my little cousin Abril and i was falling asleep during the movie, until my little baby cousin Leo came and hit me on the face with a bowl. But anyway yeah, I've been meaning to write, not much has happened in my life lately, but i suppose the little that has happened is somewhat important. I have this saying "every little detail is very important, and those that are littlest have the most importance, for they define how curvy a curve is".

I wanted to write a story in this blog, i really wanted to be able to post something that's worth reading, and as i was typing on my laptop i realized i put too much of my life into characters and a story in general. I really have no idea if that's good or not, i think i need the help of a professional in the matter( ahem, Kelli) in order to find it out. I also need a lot of help into knowing how to really structure a story, and how to come up with so many ideas for further on stories. I wonder how she does it, and every single time she gets me so tangled up in them that i dunno, it's just amazing. So yeah, in order to write a story for your enjoyment, i will need a lot of help. :D

For my puente i thought there was gonna be nothing to do, so i started out my day by waking up at 11 am (So happy, because i slept for 9 hours) i had breakfast (Scrambled eggs and ham, ooooh that just reminded me of green eggs and ham by Dr Seuss, ha ha, such a good old memory from childhood) and i watched some videos online. I then realized i had received an email two days ago from my boss asking me for my presentations i was supposed to translate, oh darn , i hadn't started because of exams, so i spend my whole day translating them into English.

During my day however, (one of the best things about my job is that i can do anything i want while i translate stuff) i decided to watch videos on Fuel Cells and read about their making and their functioning. They are quite amazing technologies, those fuel cells. They are easy and cheap to make and produce no pollution, for their residues is plain water. That gave me a really cool idea, maybe i can experiment with hydrogen fuel cells for a while at school and do some projects and then maybe i will be able to hit the market with them and be able to help the environment with the development of new technologies towards new alternative forms of energy while going forward with the Green Phoenix Project.

I've had a lot of anxiety lately, i have no idea why. Ever since my car accident, I've been coming up with new ideas and new attitudes and i hope it turns out to be something good. For example i've teamed up with my friend Carlos, so that we can design and build our own airplane, we'll start out next week. He studied Aeronautics in the University of Texas and is now studying his second major at Tec de Monterrey in Mechatronics. So i'll be able to help while i learn a lot of stuff, for some reason i really want to be able to leave a good impression on the world. The other day i went for a coffee with my friend Adriana to Cafe punta del cielo in school and we sat for a while while we talked and she asked me of my life, thing that not many people do. While i told her part of my story she was amazed of how far I've got all by myself, and it really got me motivated. I know i'm really ambitious, but i think that it can be a really good thing to aim really high. It's just like they say, "Aim for the moon, even if you don't get there, you'll land among the stars".

I've got caught up with several songs this past few weeks, it's just that music is really amazing. I enjoy how it makes you feel so many different ways: Happy, Sad, Loved, in need of Love, Friendly, Strong, capable of doing anything. It's true when they say that notes were the gift of God to human kind. As you may already know, i really enjoy country music. :D i've listened Tim Mcgraw and Brad Paisley a lot lately. I've got to enjoy and learn a lot of their songs. I want to learn some on the guitar, and i will once i have time, which on be until the summer.
I also mean to write a song, I've got some verses written down, and some somewhere inside my head, i just need some time to sit down, sing it over and over, change words, notes, pitches and stuff. I'm really good when it comes to writing songs, when i was a teenager i used to write down some. Last summer when i went home, i found my old notebook and i saw several of them, they brought me so many memories. Like i wrote one about the rodeo in Houston once. I really miss Houston, and the rodeo. It is being carried out right now and i so wish i was there...


I was talking to Rocio tonight, and she fell asleep on me :P meanie. oh well i'll talk to her tomorrow. I've kind of got used to talking to her a lot. I like it how she gives me company during the afternoons, even if it is through im's. It is one of the things that gets hard when you live by yourself, sometimes you feel kind of lonely. I'm glad i get to talk to my friends from time to time. I wish Spain wasn't 7 hours away. Talking to Kelli would be so much easier.

But anyway, aside that, i am so excited about the fuel cell thing!!!
Oooooh Today's Pi Day!!!!! (3.14) :D only a geek like me would get excited for that ha ha. i don't mind, i know i am a geek, a cool geek however.

I really miss taking weird awesome random Pictures.

And yeah, that's all that has come up to my mind that i was able to remember. Oh i almost forgot, i don't know if you've heard he song called "Ocean Avenue" by Yellowcard. It played on my itunes today. And just like 2 years ago, it got me all thinking, it makes me feel so weird when the verse
" I remember the look in your eyes,
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight,
Not here,
Not now.
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
We'll be together for one more night,
Somewhere, somehow ..."

comes up. I dunno if it is important to mention, but just like i said before, who knows. btw if you want me to let you know about songs i think are awesome. just let me know, I'll be glad to recommend some.

Good night Y'all.

Only one chance /// Feb 22nd 2010

This Blog was partially written from my blackberry and partially at home on my laptop.

I Have just found out the value life can have. I'm typing on my blackberry for i have been in an accident. I'm alright, i'm not badly injured. I thank God that nothing major happened to me. My back and my neck both hurt, i've must have injured my bones or something.

The interstate can be really dangerous though one never really knows. It was around 5:00 AM when it happened. I was on my way to school from my grandmas. I woke up at 4:00 AM for i wold have to drive 2 hours in order to make it to my 7 am class, which is mechanics of materials. I had decided to stay the previous night, for i wanted to spend some time with my cousin. We out, i saw on my side view that another car had lost control too and came towards me. I stepped out of the car as fast as a could and i ran as far as i could. The car collided against mine on the back, my trunk: completely destroyed.

I walked out of the side road onto the rocks and grass there and i was shaking big time, partially from the cold, it must have been around 27 degrees, and the nerves of being in an accident. i realized there were people coming out of the car that hit me and i ran to see if they needed any help. fortunately they were all alright. It was insurance time. We both pulled out our insurance things and called them. it took mine about an hour to get there, while the other guy's never got there.


From my computer:

Later on while fixing damages and what they covered or not, i decided to call grandma and see if she could help me with anything. She moved her contacts and they took me back to her house so that my car could be taken to a shop and i, driven to the hospital. I was right i had a minor injury on the neck for i have to be using the little neck thingy on it for two weeks( it's gonna be so uncomfortable later on).


Its really weird when you think you are going to die you think of a lot of stuff on those seconds, and they seem like eternity. I thought of my family, my friends, what would happen, a little "Oh Shit" and i also thought of you.


There's things that are within my mind that i would like to say to you. i just don't know how. I like the you when you're drowsy. It makes me happy, all you say while you are in that state. Did you know, everything you say while you're drowsy or asleep it's truly meant, it has more significance within you, for it is not a lie.

I dunno what sort of spell it is that you have over me, over my mind, over my actions. just as when you give chord to a tiny dancer on a melody box, i keep going everytime you turn the dial one more time. The accident made me realize I've got only one single chance at everything, i need to take every opportunity i have.

but anyway, i shouldn't say much.

I'm really tired and i think i should go to bed. I'm beginning to feel very drowsy
i may say thing i shouldn't.

Btw i realized i can type with my eyes closed. ^^

Good night everyone

Valentine's Day Special /// February 13th 2010

-----------------------------------
And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her skies

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you...
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...
'Til I find somebody new



So this Song has been stuck in my head for about a week now, ever since i listened to it i felt something weird, i don't know, maybe memories, feelings, who knows. Its name is "the blower's daughter" by Damien Rice, it is included in the soundtrack for the film "Closer", i started watching it last night but i was too tired and i only got to see about 15 minutes of it.

Tomorrow's Valentine's day, one of the days of the year that i really can't stand, it's all just so yucky and clingy and Mellow. o.O YUCK!!!! i really have no idea of why are people so stupid and celebrate love on a single day, when they have the rest of the year. I mean they can do all of it and way more throughout the year, instead of finding a card that says "I Love You" in the store, some flowers and chocolate to be able to "express" feelings. Love is something that doesn't require a card, i mean and if you want a card, why buy it? when you can make one much better, with better words for the feeling you have for the other person.

The only time i've ever bought a "Hallmark" card was back in the summer, when i really didn't have any idea to say to my ex and i bought her a thank you card and a rose to say good bye to her forever, and at the last minute, i ended up creating a whole poem. Maybe it's just me, but Valentine's day is just an invention to make people buy needless things. It is also a day for those who stand by themselves to remember memories that you want to keep in the back of your mind.

So on friday, i finally finished with exams, i hope i did good, although, i still haven't found out results of 4 out of 6 tests. I gave some tutorials to some friends during the week and i am thinking of maybe making it into a business or something. I think i could run a webpage and the schedule appointments for students in the surrounding universities in several topics and hire some other smart students to give the tutorials.

I got out at 11:30 am that day, i went to the gym, took a shower and went to library, i stayed there helping some friends with some math problems and then at 2 o'clock i was supposed to meet Rocio at the Cafe in school. i got there fashionably late (5 minutes) and talked to her for a while, we kept going to and from the registrar's office for she needed some letter so that she could go get her passport Saturday morning. I was supposed to call Kelli at around 3, so i went to a study room at the library and got on skype. There she was online, i called her but unfortunately she was about to have dinner. I said hi and then hung up. I met with the gang in the students hall and waited while we decided what to do that night.

We ended up deciding to go get some stuff at the supermarket and then off to Rich's house. We played Rockband 'til about 9ish-10ish then some people left and i got bored. I went upstairs to the restroom and i found Rocio laying on the couch. I think she was asleep and i woke her up. he he he. So i went downstairs again and i tried talking to her on msn, i dunno i found it a little awkward being there alone with her in the dark so i kept asking her to come downstairs to the bar and play with us. So while rich and both Pablos played halo, Rocio and i Played with the dice, we bet several things (coffee, ice cream, a mini, and pepper powder) Ha ha ha, Yes, Pepper Powder, we are so crazy, but anyway, she beat me most of the time, so i owe her all of those things, except for the ice cream. That, she owes to me. We talked during the rest of the night until about 1ish am, that's when everybody left.




so i stopped writing a while ago because i was getting tired( a little bit) so i went in and started watching a movie: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, i had forgotten what it was all about. I mean i know what the book was about, but you know how the movies always change stuff from the book. The thing that i hate the most about that movie is that they let out so many key facts that will be retaken during the 7th part. The funeral of Dumbledore and the white tomb..... So, while watching the movie, i realized that Kelli is and looks quite a lot like Hermione. :) i don't know if i ever told her, i think i did once.


But anyway, continuing my story..

Once i got to my apartment i wanted to find a country song that would mean something to me, but i gave up for i'm always listening to country and i would eventually find it. Instead, i decided to look for the movie that includes the song stuck in my head, "Closer" i found it and i stated watching the first 15 minutes until i found out i was too tired to stay up. I got online for Rocio said that the first thing i would do once i got home would be to get online to talk to her, i wanted to check if she was online just so that i could say Good night. She was online, but she never replied, i assumed she was already asleep. ha ha, it was my fault she stayed up late, her usual bedtime is around 10-11.

There's a lot been going on right now, but i suppose i'll leave that story for another post.
For now, i would just like to say, Thanks to you people who have stayed by my side and are called friends. Happy "dia de la amistad" as they call it here, i will leave the love portion out for the real name is "Dia del amor y la amistad" because i don't have anyone by my side at this moment. And after all i have passed through i know exactly what kind of person it is i would like to have.

"The best things in life come to you Unexpectedly"

Peace Out


Oh, I got to talk to Kelli today, It was hillarious because we had so much trouble with the video and audio, so we were like Hello Da-kgukjb-ny, Hi K-kkjgkjgh-li, how are Yolkjghgkhg, ha ha.
I wasn't able to see her, so i was making weird faces and i heard her making the faces and stuff. It was really funny.

Btw if you want to listen to the song, here's the link

The Sun is Bright ///February 4th 2010

I'm sorry i haven't been able to type anything down lately, like i had said before, school and work have me running forth and back.

So anyway, what's been new lately?

Not very much really.

I have Exams Next week. Monday is going to be awful, i have 3 exams that day: Mechanics of Materials, Electricity and Magnetism, and Dynamics.

About two days ago i got sick, i really don't know what was wrong with me, i just didn't have any appetite for two days and my tummy hurt. I felt that if i had eaten anything i would have thrown up. I started feeling like that on Tuesday night, on Wednesday morning i headed to school as usual and while i was in the design laboratory i started feeling dizzy and sick. I decided to leave. I realized however, that it was still early (9am). Which happens to be Rush Hour.

I changed my path to the cafeteria and had some hot Peppermint tea while i got on my computer and checked on my email and some other things. To my Surprise, Kelli was online, i talked to her for a little while only though, her computer was dying on her. At around 10 i left, there was some traffic leftover from the rush hour still. But nothing to be worried about.

Once i got home, i passed some files onto my computer ( i needed to do some translations i hadn't started on). I decided to sleep for a while. Once i got up, i felt way better. i think i must have been wore down or maybe exhausted. i had never experienced exhaustion before in my life. It feels terrible. I checked on my computer and i had a lost call. :( oh well.


I got up and started working on some homework and then i headed to work. I am thinking about quitting my job at western Union. I really haven't had the time to keep up with everything. i have two jobs and school. so i will just keep my job at Microbotix and focus on school. the good thing about Microbotix is that i would work right accross the street from my school and i would only work for 1 hour and a half everyday. :)

I haven't got anything meaningful to express as of right now, i don't think. Oh yeah, i just remembered, i need to look up several scholarships. That Roberto Rocca Foundation sure has a really awesome one.

I've been talking to Rocio a lot lately, we've become really good friends. She's Hillarious and makes me laugh quite a lot. Her Brother thinks we're like secret lovers or something, ha ha, she's just my friend. Plus she's only 17.....

I've got really good friends at school now, that makes me really happy.

The other day i felt quite well when one of my classmates asked me to give him tutorials on Electricity and Magnetism. I felt like "ooooh, I'm smart"

I hate how i cannot wear any of my jeans anymore, they are all so loose. I've been working out lately and that combined with stress and a messed up meal schedule have made me lose weight. So whenever i start running i have to hold them up or jump to put them in place ha ha. it looks quite funny though.

There's this trend on Facebook about putting up a picture of a celebrity that looks like you.
Ever since i was a kid i've been told Shia Labeouf Looks like me. and yes i say he looks like me, because of course i am me, and i am more important. :) so anyway, i think he does look like me, especially with the beard. My Hair is really messy right now, i have kind of let it be. Some would say it has an Einstein look to it.

Facebook doesn't really get me so excited as it used to before. i suppose i've lost touch with so many "friends" on there that used to be good ones, just like when your world changes all of a sudden. I suppose that happened to me. But its true what they say, one all of your fake friends have left you, only the true ones will be standing by your side.

I am thinking about getting a haircut, but i don't know whether to keep it long or cut it shorter. whenever i ask people, they give me different answers. Gah. I suppose i will ask the important ones and see what they say. I don't know, image is not as important as it used to be to me before. And i don't know whether that's good or not. My Long hair is quite fun to play with though, and i can make it go funny ways that my good friends laugh at.

Oh, i almost forgot. I have had this song called "2 is better than 1" by Boys Like Girls and Taylor Swift stuck in my head since like 3 weeks ago i heard it while working out. I find it thoughtful. There was another song i heard on the radio i really like, i dunno who's it by, but i think it dates back to the 90's it goes something like "i am sorry i am a little late... shalala shalala" Ha Ha i forgot how it went, when i listen to it again i will remember.

I read Kelli's new story "on High" just yesterday. Once again, it made me think a lot. Angel wings, would it really be a curse if you did become an angel. I mean, of course it would be sad if you forgot everything and just thought of going high up in the sky. Isn't it everyone's dream though, to be able to fly and be free of the chains that this material world has. Plus i mean, Wings. Imagine having cool looking Wings on your back and to be able to fly and feel the wind on your face and the sun's warmth. I suppose the real angels in life are those who are there by our side no matter what and give us advise.

I want to read a good book, but i don't have time!!!!

I had forgotten how good it feels to express your ideas somewhere, even if it is just a diary that wont be able to respond or give you advise. Its just that you let many things inside of you go into ink on paper or bites on a computer. It really is magical.



PD: Whatever i forgot to post now will come to my mind later, i will keep posting. :D

The Things in my mind/// January 20th 2010

A lot of things have gone through my mind lately. Well there are always things going through my mind. If it is not school, then it is work; if it is not work, then it is leisure; if it isn't leisure, then it is some "stupid" Theory about something either scientific or philosophical.


The last time i posted something was the day before school started; it kind of makes you realize of how absorbing can school be. My First day of school went alright, i expected it to be either much worse or much better. All of my classes feel as thought they were some sort of Scientific level or such. For some reason i feel all of them relate somehow, and with them i will be able to find out something about something. My favorite classes are Electricity and magnetism and Calculus of Multiple Variables.

I started with my new job at Microbotix, I give robotics classes to little kids and work from home translating stuff into English. For the first time in my life, i've stood in front of everyone in the classroom for longer than 20 minutes. Its is a great feeling to be called "teacher" "professor" "mister" and such. I have finally understood the great work it requires to be calm and patient when people do not listen and or play around. They are just kids though. It was really funny and cute how on my first day i walked through the gate of "The Irish Institute" and a little boy walked right up to me and asked "Who are you? Are you here to Teach robotics? Whats your name?" and so on. Children are so innocent and true. While in class some of them were really loud and stuff. I've learned how to manage them though. I think i am really liking to be able to be part of their Tuesdays and leave something of importance in their minds. I Really like kids, i think that whenever i become a father, i'll do a great job. At least i will try to be with them a lot.

While watching my stupid TV series, i was able to watch how some fathers were there for their children whenever they were kids. My dad's still alive, he's a nice guy and all. I have found out that i barely even know him. The last memory of him from my childhood dates back to when i was 6 years old. I remember playing frisbee in the street in from of my house in Chiapas. Oh those days are so long gone. If you could only know the story of what drove us away from that place. I suppose i'll post it up some other time. One thing i know for sure: once i grow older and i am able to Work(in a nicer Engineering Job) i will take my dad on a trip to get to know him better.

I miss my mom a lot. My cooking is not that great.....

Meeting new people is probably what i've enjoyed the most about this school year. I've met about 5 new persons. From today on though, my new year's resolution (besides getting in shape and stuff) will be to talk to people even if i am too shy to do so. It feels really good to walk around campus and find people who say hi to you.

Even though i know a wholesome bunch of persons, i feel lonely. I think something went wrong in my head last April when "the incident" happened. Well i think i am excused somehow, it kind of scarred me.

My favorite cousin came back from Orlando, i am so happy. She is like a sister to me. Last sunday i got to spend the day with her. We watched "The Time Traveler's wife" and talked all night. I had one of the most productive talks i've had in a long time. I was able to Let go of many things i've kept in for so long. I had a shoulder to cry on at last. That's what i need to do i suppose, to let go of the tears of Pride, Sadness, Anger, heartbreak. We men are so proud, that we keep everything inside. Or at least i do. It's so hard to try to talk to someone who you barely know about something so deeply hidden within your own self.







Kelli takes off to Spain tomorrow. I hope she has a safe flight and a safe stay in Sevilla. I think she's mad at me or something. I dunno. She sent me this message on skype that made me feel kind of like a bother.... I really don't mean to be one. I'm sorry if i ever was.


Once again, for some reason, music makes me feel all tingly and stuff. Ever heard FFVII soundtrack? Oh my. Nobuo Uematsu is a genius when it comes to make you feel stuff through music. FFVII is my favorite video game of all time. You get so tangled up in the story as though you were the main character. I remember when i was a kid, i fell in Love with Aerith. Ha ha


I Still need to get new strings for my guitar... need to learn a few new songs. Not that anyone would want to listen to them. I still do it for myself. I love to feel the strings in my fingers while the notes play. I don't think anyone but Kelareh and my brothers has have heard me sing while playing something. Oh, and Cristy; she doesn't count though.

About a week ago, my friend Carlos said something that got to me: "I always look for the way to say I'm sorry to those whom i may have hurt". It reminded me of how i need to start doing some work around.







I'm very tired, i don't remember what else i wanted to say.

Oh, The picture i posted, i took it a while ago cause i thought it was pretty. i dunno if it has anything to do with what i wrote or not. Maybe in my mind it does...

The Vampire /// January 9th 2010

Today was a quite interesting day. I went to the planning meeting at Microbotix and met a whole bunch of new people. I will be giving courses at The Irish School along with Sergio and Jimena. I met Sergio, he's a nice guy. Jimena, well she didn't go to the meeting, but i talked to her on the phone, she sounded very nice. I'll meet her on Tuesday when we go teach the first robotics class of the semester.

I'm really excited about teaching, this is the first time in my life that i will be doing so. Well, without counting the tutoring I've given at school. I really don't know what impression i can leave on kids, i can maybe try to make a difference by teaching them something different than just the course materials. :)

I will be going to the main office this week, to discuss with the general director about the translating and redesigning of the robotics course. It seems to me that i will have quite a blast in this job.

Today i met one of the pretties girls i've seen while i've been in Mexico. Her name is Rebecca, she is old though, she's around 22, 23. I didn't really ask her. She's a cute redhead that studies psychology and the Ibero-American University. I think its cool how she has some interest in robotics, even though her field is way off. But anyway. I just think she's cute. I don't really like her. For me to like someone, more than looks is needed. I would have to have known her a little bit for me to decide. That's what i've learned over the last few months. And its really good i think that way now.

We finished the meeting at 2:00 and i was given a case with robots and lots of materials for class giving. I will be the Case Guardian, as they call the person who carries it around, for i am the one who has a car. Good thing i will get a bonus for that.


I Finally finished reading Dracula by Bram Stocker. I absolutely Loved it. One of my favorites so far; even though i would say it is a draw between Dracula and Frankenstein.

And i leave you with a poem inspired by the book that i liked very much.

The vampire by Rudyard Kipling

A fool there was and he made his prayer
(Even as you or I!)
To a rag and a bone and a hank of hair,
(We called her the woman who did not care),
But the fool he called her his lady fair--
(Even as you or I!)

Oh, the years we waste and the tears we waste,
And the work of our head and hand
Belong to the woman who did not know
(And now we know that she never could know)
And did not understand!

A fool there was and his goods he spent,
(Even as you or I!)
Honour and faith and a sure intent
(And it wasn't the least what the lady meant),
But a fool must follow his natural bent
(Even as you or I!)

Oh, the toil we lost and the spoil we lost
And the excellent things we planned
Belong to the woman who didn't know why
(And now we know that she never knew why)
And did not understand!

The fool was stripped to his foolish hide,
(Even as you or I!)
Which she might have seen when she threw him aside--
(But it isn't on record the lady tried)
So some of him lived but the most of him died--
(Even as you or I!)

``And it isn't the shame and it isn't the blame
That stings like a white-hot brand--
It's coming to know that she never knew why
(Seeing, at last, she could never know why)
And never could understand!''

Lack ot Time /// January 8th 2010

Starting Monday, my life will be consumed in Books, calculators, Robots, Computers, pens and Pencils. A Mouse will make my life a little easier, luckily i have one. Machine Designing is way hard when you don't have a mouse.
Even Though i know i will have no time for leisure, i am very excited school is starting once again. College is the only place here where i feel at home; i feel like Harry during winter break, he always stayed at Hogwarts because that was his home.

What has happened during the last 2 days? well, nothing much really. Same old, same old. Wake Up, Computer, Shower, TV, Work, Computer, PSP, Sleep. That pretty much is my life here when i am not in school, my friends where all out...

I'm almost done reading Dracula, by Bram Stocker. It is indeed one of the finest pieces of literature i have read: The Mistery, The Thrill, The Imagination, The Monster. Every time i read a new book, i just fall a little more in Love with Words. On how they can make you imagine things you wouldn't even dream about. How they can make you feel things you forgot existed, or how you fall in love with a fictitious character. I Know it sounds silly, but i also do know there's many more that feel that way too about books. The Only Thing i hate about them is when i dont have time to read them.

Every Break i have, when i go Home, I bring back with me a Whole Bunch of books. Last Summer i brought with me 8 books, of which i have only read 2. and i keep doing the same each break, i bring books, and a read a few. Lack of time. Once i have a little time, i need to make it up to my own library, i will have to read each one of them, so that when i am older, or even now, i cn give some good recommendations as far as literature goes.

I've only told this to one person in my life, but one of the things i love to do is to find Quotes. I Love Quotes. That Explains why i still keep the planners they give out during High School, they are full of Quotes. Today i found one in particular that called my attention: Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes. -Oscar Wilde-

We all have experiences, for we all commit mistakes. It's one of the Principles of Human Beings.
We Are created to Gods Image and Resemblance, but we are only Humans and commit mistakes. Every experience we have, makes us stronger,wiser, Humbler.

Two Nights ago right before going to bed i did something i had not done in a long,long time: I Spoke to God. I'm not a very religious person, or very rarely do i go to Church. But that night i felt some sort of connection that allowed me to express my feelings to Him.
I suppose when we don't have anyone else to go to we always go to him, to ask him for things. What i did too though, I Thanked him, for everything he has given me. While i don't have every Treasure in the World, i'm very fortunate to have the people that surround me. I Thanked him for everything that happened in the past, for it has made me who i am right now. I Think i like who i am right now. I Thank him for my wide vision of things, on how everything is going to be better.

This Year, 2010, for some reason i can feel is going to be just Amazing. It's one of those things you aren't really sure why. You just are sure that something Amazing is gonna happen, you can foresee it, like a sixth sense or something.

As far as i can see right now, everything is going to work itself out.

Have a Good Trip Kelli

First of all i want to apologize for not being able to go to Houston this break. Like i said before i have too much going on right now that i wasn't able to go.

I wanted to have a little way to kind of make it up, even though its not much i hope you like it, i picked it for you because i know you like green and who doesn't like flowers huh? especially when they are so pretty like that. ha ha, the scarf i thought was really awesome, like all those colors are so beautiful all together and stuff you know. They contrast each other, and yet they complement each other as well.

I don't know if it was right to send it to you, like i wanted to send you something that represented the place where i live, you see, they both were hand crafted in Chiapas, remember what i told you about that state? that's where my dad is from and where i spend my life until i was 6 years old. I Haven't really gone there for like over 6 years now, since my grandparents passed away. i Should go, i have a house there and stuff and it is all so beautiful. My House is in the city but the little towns and national parks and stuff are all so nice. I think i might have some pictures somewhere in there so i can show them to you sometime when we talk.

I Know sometimes i tend to be a little annoying, or at least that's what i think, people tell me i am too pushy, but what can i do? its just the way i am.

I am really happy that we have kind of got to know each other a little bit more not so long ago, i really appreciate that you are my friend and i hope that you go on being one. I really think you are an amazing person and i admire you for all you've done. Whether you believe it or not, i think everything you write is just amazing. I Wish i had the skills to do it. I am glad you gave me the idea of keeping a journal. i am really liking it.

I could say a whole lot more, you know me, with you i get really talkative.I really don't know why, i just do.Ii suppose you bring so many ideas to my mind seeing that you are very interesting yourself. i'm not going to lie to you, you truly are the Most Amazing girl i have ever known, i'm glad you are my friend.

But anyway, the point of my letter is to wish you good luck in Spain.I Hope you have a lot of fun and get to learn a lot of things, make new friends, learn some more Spanish(not that you aren't good at it already), and just enjoy your time in Europe. You need to keep posting pictures up every once in a while.Don't forget to write back and to get online every once in a while.

And please: never forget you will always have a Really good friend right here in Mexico city, or in Houston or wherever i may be at the time.

I send you a Big Bear Hug. :P

Yours Truly

Think about Ponchos /// January 5th 2010

I Thought that today wasn't going to be interesting at all. I went to School to make my schedule i will take super hard classes:

Differential Equations
Numerical Methods For Engineering
Dinamics
Mechanics of Materials I
Electricity and Magnetism
Mathematics for Engineering III

I Sense the fact that i will have no life this semester...

Anyway, after coming back from school i noticed my car was somehow overheating..... WHAT???
Yes, it said it was overheating during winter... :S so i took it to the shop to get an oil change and refill all the liquids,get new spark plugs, etc, etc, etc. After i went to pick it up it said it was hot, but when i opened up the hood, it was normal, WTF??? I'll get it checked this weekend.

I think i might be getting a New Blackberry, i need to get a new plan and they give out new blackberries with the plan, so yeah..Wooooo HOOO!

This morning i thought about a lot of things; i've been thinking about a lot of things lately.

I thought how will i be able to put up with the new job and the old one and school and the starting of the company and all. Wow, i sure will end up losing at least 20 lbs. So i will go to the gym often, i don't wanna look so freaking skinny.

i Went and Bought the Poncho my brother asked me for and a little Green Scarf like-thingy, its pretty, they are hand made.

While i was at school this morning i felt that it was gonna be a good semester, i dunno why, i just felt it in the air. I Miss Rocio, i need someone to freaking talk to and be crazy around, who doesn't really mind. Kelli Doesn't either, but i suppose she's busy, i'll rather not bother her.

I need to practice my french.

Boy Meets World is awesome, i need to get back my life, everything's been so crazy ever since April 2009. I've been Mostly depressed until about now.

When does a girl stop being innocent and nice, to become mean and cold?

I Love my friends, although i don't really talk to them much.

I should Keep writing things down, so that i don't forget them when i want to post them here.

I went to the fine arts Carnival again, i thought of how gifts can mean something so special.

I Won't be able to go to Houston this January, i've got so many things going. I'll make it up.


It's funny to realize you fall in "love" with someone, and then about a month later you find out you don't even know her. First Sight Love... Does it Exist?

I Hate Valentine's Day. Its So Cuddly and YUCK!

I Really Wish I could Fly.

While i was at the carnival thing, i really wanted to freak people out by doing my Super Victory Funny Dance.

Shipping is Awfully Expensive -__-

I've never kissed anyone under a mistletoe.

My skin is yellowish, i'm not dark, but i'm not like Pinky white. i'm just like Yellow-white.

Man, I'm so picky with Girls. They have to be Crazy and Random just like i am, but not Big Time Cuddly and Girly, i would like to have a girl who is normal, who you can be funny around and she wont give you a Weirdo Look. So Freaking Hard to find a chick who is not judgmental.

anyway, i guess i shall go.

School Starts next week /// January 4th 2009

Today wasn't a very interesting day. Nothing interesting happened really...
i woke up at 8:30 to find out i was too tired to get up, so i went back to sleep until 11:00.

I was supposed to call several companies to find out prices of materials i need to start up manufacturing of CA Shirts, but i didn't; i stayed in bed and watched Boy meets World. That show surely brings a smile to my face every time.

So i got up and played on of my favorite songs: She said yes by Brad Paisley. I cleaned my room... Sorta. And made myself a sandwich to take for lunch to work.

While i was at work, i realized of how many things i could do in the near future such as different designs for CA Shirts, monetizing, the Website etc. Some of my co-workers said they wanted to buy some shirts once they came out.

The most important thing i could have thought though was the fact that i may have a contact who could help me get Kelli's Book Published... i remember my friend Monica saying something about a publishing company her dad's friends with the owner, so I'll ask her about it next week once schools starts out. i Hope We can get Kelli a deal: She would be so happy!

i was also thinking that i could make t shirts of her book, to help her kinda make publicity about it, i'll ask her sometime she gets online what she thinks about that, i can get my brother(who happens to be one of Texas' Best Artists) to help me out here. I'm thinking of a Peach and a silhouette with red hair or something, and a catchy phrase.

I dunno, my mind works in the strangest ways, i really do have the spirit of an entrepreneur...

My First Post /// January 3rd 2010

This is about the 3rd blog that i have written on: the other 2, i just kind of got bored for they were only an assignment for school.

My name is Danny, i'm 20 years old, i am a college student, my majors are Mechanical Engineering and Electrical Engineering. I'm a really weird guy, like Big time weird, but like cool weird, not like freak weird.

Anyway, i started this blog because i mainly needed a place where i could post my ideas and feelings, i mean, there must be something interesting in my life that can be worth reading in the future. The idea of keeping a journal was given to me by my best friend Kelli, She's a writer, she is awesome with words and sentences, and she's really creative. I Love everything she writes, like her book "peaches" is amazing, i would say it was thrilling, i couldn't put the computer down, until i was done reading it, you should all read it when it gets published. She has like 20 journals so far, so i need a little catching up to do. :)

Today:

What did i do today?

This morning i woke up around 8:00, even before my alarm went off: i was having one of those dreams you want to keep dreaming of. I went back to sleep until 11:30, i loved it because i was able to decide what to do in my dream. one of those dreams that you just love cause you know that you're dreaming and you can control everything that happens in it. so i dreamed of a party me and my friends were organizing and about a girl i haven't seen in ages. i dreamed i rescued her from some revolutionary gang back in the 1900's.

After i got up, i took a shower and i got ready to go out. i was set to look for a Poncho my brother asked me to buy for his best friend. i went to this "mercado de artesanias" and looked for it, although everything was really expensive. i went back home and watched Boy meets world for a while. Boy meets world is my favorite TV show, its just so real, i have had every single emotion they show there. The episode called "starry night" was just amazing, how Topanga and Cory get back together, and find out that they love each other more than anything despite the problems, differences and arguments. I once had that with this girl, so i felt kinda sad-happy, i dunno, one of those feelings that gets to your heart, but you don't know what it is. so it made me want that again, although, i don't know when i'll be able to find anyone who will like me as much...

After about 2 hours, i decided to go on my quest again, so i went to the Fine arts palace, and in the park there, there was a carnival. i went through the shops and found really pretty Ponchos, and a gift for someone who i care about. (I'm not gonna post it here, otherwise she'll know). Its beautiful, tomorrow I'll go get something else just to make it a little more complete.

I came back home and started working on my scale model, while i watched this movie called "Trainspotting", it was about this heroin addict that decides life is more that just drugs. it was really good. Then i watched another movie yet, "dos abrazos". I feel like i have no life.... Just before i started this blog, i was feeling very lonely.... my phone started vibrating.. it got me all excited because i thought that someone was calling... My battery was just dying... i know i'm pathetic...

The worst part of not having my old life, is that i Miss having someone to talk to every night. Someone who would just care to listen to my silly voice about my random stuff... i guess that's why i am making this blog... so that i can tell someone about it all... even if i don't know you.....


I'm so obsessed with the song on the flute i learned how to play.... it reminds me of love....
