Choosing Asignatures...

Finally, I decided which asignatures I'm going to view the next semester when I get back to Colombia...
They are:

ST075 SISTEMAS OPERATIVOS
ST104 METODOS CUANTITATIVOS 1
EC055 ECONOMIA GENERAL
HL165 AXIOLOGIA Y CONTEMPORANEIDAD
ST130 DES. DE SOFTWARE EDUCATIVO

I've heard that "Sistemas Operativos" is a hard asignature..., BUT from now on.., I'm going to make with myself the pact that I'm going to WIN it no matter what.
For "Métodos Cuantitativos" I've heard that it's not difficult, I'm starting to enjoy economics, thats why I think that "Economia General" won't be a major problem, as usual some useless asignatures like "Axiologia y Contemporaneidad" that the only thing that they does is drain time and energy, and the last but not less important "Desarrollo de Software Educativo" which I think is interesting (It's from the diversification line that I chose which is "Software Development").

Making some plans...

Talking today with the "Citizen Dildo" and "Maya", both friends from Colombia, I invited them to come to my place, in order to spend the 24th of december together, and also do some traveling later on, we were thinking about going to Rome, that would be nice, I haven't been there already.., and I have seen very cool pics of that city. We're thinking on renting a car, or going by train...., I have to check out the prices for the trains.., because the current system of the Swiss Railway Home page doesn't give me the price for the ticket when I'm going to travel outside of the country...., that's bad.., so I will have to go to the SBB railway station, and talk to an agent and tell him/her what I'm looking for in order to get the price.
In the other Hand, we're thinking on maybe cooking a Turkey for that day...., I've never cooked one in my life, neither I do know how to do it, but I'm sure that the web is pretty full of receipes telling me how to do it, step-by-step... I also hope to don't have to face the same kind of problems that Katie Holmes got involved in the movie "Pieces of April" while she was cooking it for the thanks giving day.
I have spent all my life the 24th of december with my parents and my family, what is really good..., I'm going to miss'em too much this year..............

Right now I'm listening a 143MB session that I downloaded from paul van dyk..., that DJ is just the best.
I'm kind of sad at the same time because DJ Tiësto played this last weekend on my city....., "I came to Europe looking for him without knowing that he was looking for me" ..., that's my favorite DJ... Bob (Julian), one of my friends told me that the party was just great....., specially when he played the song "Silence" ... people went crazy with it.
At the same time, I can't complain..., I've been in cool partys here also..., The Zurich Street Parade that was just incredible, Paul Van Dyk featuring his new production "Vandit" also in Zürich in the Techno park was also amazing................ Conclusion: I Can't Complain.

Plans for this weekend broke up a little bit..., love problems involved...(can't say too much here, because it can compromise the hapiness and stability of third parties), BUT as always..., nothing that can't be fixed and/or replaced.... (By the way., this Paul Van Dyk Mix is just great). I'm just waiting for confirmation on the plans..., who's coming in the end, from which day until which day...... etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

Confussion...........

Confussion, that's the main feeling right now. Getting closer each day to the finish line of this chapter of my life in Switzerland bring a lot of things to my head. I feel good because it has been a very good experience with a totally different culture, learned tons of things from it, experimented another way of work, another situations that I didn't face before, got to know new things, places, ways of life, new friends, and specially more of myself. Also, I'm very happy because I'm going to see all of my family again, because I'm going to see YOU, my friends...., the university, the student life, to be able to talk in spanish again ( I never thought that I was going to miss the spanish the way I'm missing it...., However, I'm writing all of this in English, because I have some friends that doesn't speak spanish and want to read my blog...).

In the other hand.., I know that I'm going to miss this, to miss the perfection of this country (which is not the best, but it doesn't mean that i'm not going to miss it), I'm going to miss all this landscapes, the silence of the cities, the quiet people, the fact that wherever you go you won't find queues, the loneliness of everything and everywhere, also that when you go by the streets the cars stop to give you the way....., the fact that when I'm in the streets and people is talking in swiss german I don't understand absolutely nothing This and much more things that have made my life here in Switzerland....

Is now, 2 months before I leave, that I realize how different our cultures are........, how has changed and grown this guy that arrove here 10 months ago, how big but at the same time how small the world is, BUT the most important thing is that I'm happy to get back to my City.

Doing Pancakes

mmmm...., I'm not the expert, but this is the receipe that I'm using today for making my pancakes:
-3 cups of flour.
-4 eggs.
-2 cups of milk.
-A tea spoon of vanilla escence.
I'll mix everything...., and that's it.

Eye strain

I tried....for one week doing the exercises that my optician told me to do, but it definetively doesn't work. It doesn't help me to reduce my eye strain while I'm all the day in front of the computer. That's why I decided to use again my eyeglasses.., now I feel relieved, no eye strain any more.

If you're twenty something ... then this apply to you.

"Being Twenty-Something" They call it the "Quarter-life Crisis." It is when you stop going along with the crowd and start realizing that there are many things about yourself that you didn't know and may not like. You start feeling insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or two, but then get scared because you barely know where you are now. You start realizing that people are selfish and that, maybe, those friends that you thought you were so close to aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met, and the people you have lost touch with are some of the most important ones. What you don't recognize is that they are realizing that too, and aren't really cold, catty, mean or insincere, but that they are as confused as you. You look at your job... and it is not even close to what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are looking for a job and realizing that you are. You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your life. You feel alone and scared and confused. Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the past is drifting further and further away, and there is nothing to do but stay where you are or move forward. You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you loved could do such damage to you. Or you lie in bed and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough that you want to get to know better. Perhaps you love someone who doesn't love you back, or worse yet, loves someone else. Or maybe you love someone but love someone else too and cannot figure out why you are doing this because you know that you aren't a bad person. One night stands and random hook ups start to look cheap. Getting wasted and acting like an idiot starts to look pathetic. You go through the same emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends about the same topics because you cannot seem to make a decision. You worry about loans, money, the future and making a life for yourself... and while winning the race would be great, right now you'd just like to be a contender! What you may not realize is that everyone reading this relates to it. We are in our best of times and our worst of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this whole thing out. Send this to your twenty something friends.... maybe it will help someone feel like they aren't alone in their state of confusion..... GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF US!!!!!

Status = Hibernating

Ok, I know that I do like the cold weather..., BUT NOT THIS !!!! This is most than Cold.., I would say.., it's a "Freezing Cold".., that's why I decided to switch my status from Active to Hibernating, starting from now on until the day I leave...
Days are getting pretty short, full of clouds and fog all the time......, trees are getting without any leaf, the streets are getting more empty each day...., peoples mood start changing.., you can tell.
My decisions now from where to go doesn't depend anymore on who's going, which place, what kind of music, what kind of liquor, etc, etc, etc.., instead they're being depending on how much distance I will have to travel and/or walk in this freezing weather to get there.
For example, I just got to basel last tuesday morning.., my fridge is almost empty.., and I haven't gone to the supermarket because the weather is extremely cold..., adding that I have to bike.., I'm not so sure if i'll be able to make it. Today I'm gonna try, because if I don't I would just and simple die of hunger.

Home sweet Home (Basel)

Being traveling throughout Germany and Holland was awesome.
Seeing again old friends from school, town and city was the best..., definetively there's nothing like being with Columnbians !!! We had a very cool time !
I want to express my gratefulness to my friend "Luis" (when said by german people it sounds like louis, that was funny) who gave me asilum at his place in Köln.... where we did a webcam "striptease" (The word is in quotes cuz it wasn't a real one..., just teasing) to a scandinavian girls without seeing them while talking on the phone..., that was very funny also.... Lot of fun Louis.
I would call Amsterdam "La ciudad de la Lujuria"..., don't take me wrong..., BUT a lot of things that are forbidden in the real world are allowed up there.., what is good for some people..., personally I didn't take any advantage not even from the hookers (It was like buying meat, they were showing themselves on a 3 x 3 square meters room where you can see them throughout a crystal and if you liked her, she would open a door and let you in.... the rest is up to your wallet and/or imagination, I was kind of impressed.), not even from the pot.
When I was coming back I got to know 3 swiss girls on the train that were coming also from Amsterdam.., and while we were talking they said "The good girls go to heaven, the bad ones go to Amsterdaaaaaaaaaam", Yeah right...!!! I don't think that taking drugs and having sex as a madman will give you some kind of stability.., actually.., they were very twisted and immature to be 20 years old. This is what leads me to talk about my "Stability" Theory (I'll write about this later on).

Location: Munich, Olympic Area 1976.
PD: Andres was grabbing my ass, that's why the spontaneous laugh.

Getting to know Germany..

So far, traveling in Germany has been the best. (Currently I´m in Köln)
I´ve had very cool momentos, like drinking multivitaminico (Thanks for that Mario), "Ah parce, no quiero descompletar el billete" (jajajja, that was really funny Maria Camila), "NAchos con Queso" said almost perfectly by a German waitress, "tupale, tupale..." very funny also (This word came from Francisco el Matematico, especifically from Jhon David), and on and on and on... My friends are the best.

SO far I´ve been on:

-Stutgart: Very nice city, I took cool pictures there that I will post later on (I´m not at home already).
-Munich: Lots of money everywhere...., interesting things to see.
-Berlin: Just amazing.
-Köln: YOung people again !
