Ein weiteres Wochenende in der Hölle

May 14th... and yes I'm here in the middle of nowhere, in the middle of the jungle, in the middle of nothing... away from everything, and everybody I might care...if only it wasn't so fucking expensive to leave this town on weekends at least I'd be at home... but recently not even my mom's house feels like home, it's a direct consequence of living for so long here, I had to stay here for so long so I can save some money and I can actually afford some things I do like and I feel good wearing and owning, but I wonder if it's so high price to pay... it's been a year, more than a year since I got here.

I was in Bogotá with my lover at that time... I called mom and she told me the "Hearing" to pick some jobs was gonna take place within the next days... of course there was a big issue, I was scheduled to be in Buenos Aires, I was totally fucked up, that was gonna be the first time I was gonna be in another country and picking up a fucking job in the middle of nowhere wasn't going to fuck up that wonderful chance...so I did what I had to do, I empowered my mom to pick my job...well it was like picking a job but picking the place where I was going to be send to work...yes everything was fucked up, so many things may go so wrong, specially because I feared my mom was going to be tricked for somebody in the Hearing room in Sincelejo.

Thank God, my mom did so great in the hearing or at least that was what I heard, and I end up here in the middle of nowhere...but hey it could be so fucking worst, actually I think Mommy gave the chance to write right here right now, or maybe I was end up in an actual jungle, like some of my college classmates that ended up in places with no electricity, sweet water, cell phones, and worst with no Internet... that's an actual hell, and thanks to mom, I'm not there.

I went to Argentina where, surprise!, I was the fool again, I lost my wallet, I was got into some nightclub where they took money from me, I thought I was screwed but that's what happen when you go after unknown people in unknown countries, yes for the record it was in Florida Street in downtown Buenos Aires... got fucking scared, thank God I didn't have my passport on me or anything worthful like cameras or cellphones, actually my clothes were so stupid...and that wasn't the end, but thank God Colombians like me learn real fast when someone attempts to get your stuff without your permission. I was walking with my companion and suddenly some stinky crap was thrown onto ours jackets, and like magic some old, ugly witch came out from nowhere and she attempted to help us, with some water she had on, very useful, you know... of course I quickly understood she wanted to get our jackets and God knows what else, I suspect that it may had something on that water... but thank God I got it real fast and get me and my companion away from the stinky witch... and later I lost my wallet, maybe in a cap, maybe in the stadium... and also my companion lost his camera....fuck, so cool pics and they were lost for good.

But the pluses topped the minuses, I specially remember the walking I made from the hotel to the cool Boca Juniors Stadium, in the Boca neighborhood, but weel that's more topic for my Wordpress blog than for this blog, and yes I'm here and today's saturday (and Sunday comes afterwards) and I got a mountain of work to do, so I have to take advantage of all my time today... so I can finish my work tomorrow and wait for this days to end real, real fast, after all I don't belong here.

Bored Weekend, Android and Three (or Four) Weeks to Go and the Gone Ones

Well, it's been a while since I posted my more recent entry on this blog...well I will have to summarize it.

Well last friday it was time to go to Sincelejo, it wasn't that exciting, just like I supposed, when I finished my job I have to run (as usual) to finish packing, so the car wasn't leaving me behind... that was the easy part, when we were on the road, after like 15 minutes, the car suddenly stopped, and that delayed us a little bit more...well but that wasn't the crappy part, when we get the place where the road was broken (by the water, remember?) we had to jump onto a boat, bad news?, there was nothing to protect us from the harsh sun of mid-afternoon and we were in that boat like 2 hours, under the cruel tropical sun, not that funny, I have to say. Well, later the trip by car again to Sincelejo, long enough and of course expansive enough as well, I got home like 8:30, very tired.

Well but I was tired, very tired not only coz of the crappy trip...I couldn't sleep not even the thursday (thor's day now I know) or friday, why? I wanted my Android phone...and I was completely stressed, I wanted a real good phone, and the best choice to go was the Motorola Defy, a very good Android Phone, but there was also the LG Optimus One, cheaper, but less handy than the Motorola Defy... I was in very stupid confusion, one hour I was completely sure I wanted the LG Optimus One, and the next one I was completely sure I wanted the Motorola Defy...when I was in the store, I could finally, finally got rid of the plan with the BlackBerry 9630 I had... and it was time to choose...I wanted the LG Optimus One but when I got the prize it was only 90.000 cheaper than the Motorola Defy, and sorry but I don't want to regret later for not having a completely better phone (water resitant and against hits) for less than 45 US Dollars, sorry but no...

I got my Android finally...but also I got out of cash I only have coins to finish this month, but this weekend is the 15th and is just like two weeks more to hold it on, and then I hope to be free, but you never know if I'm gonna stay here three of four weeks more.

A lot (well only two) of my workmates got the chance to leave this jungle, it's great news for them, I hope there will be that chance for me too, it's not such a great idea staying here for longer...this crappy place is getting shittier by the day...but you never know what the future is coming over...and yes I'm sleeping very well, I think I'm sleeping too much, long naps and stuff...well I think the title was long... but that was all I have to say.

PD. I just got a very sexy phone call, I'll keep you posted lol.

Decisiones difíciles.

Bueno debo decir que en los últimos dos días he pasado por una disyuntiva bastante fuerte. La decisión de comprar un nuevo equipo, un nuevo teléfono celular representó mucho más trabajo mental, de lo que yo hubiese podido imaginar... tenía claro que ya no quería un BlackBerry, pero definitivamente quería un teléfono Android (with Google) soy un fanático de Google y creo que empezaré con un teléfono sencillo pero suficientemente eficiente, muy buena relación costo/beneficio. 


La razón del tormento era que había otro teléfono con ciertas características que lo hacían bastante apetecible, pero no, por lo menos ahora no, y me duele no poder darme este lujo pero bueno las cosas se consiguen poco a poco. Y pues tal vez si ahorrara y esperara un mes... pero el próximo mes tengo unos compromisos bastante fuertes, por tanto no puedo estar dándome esos lujos y lo otro es que DETESTO endedudarme, no soy un tipo que le guste ir prestando por la vida y mucho menos cuando existe la opción clara de no hacerlo. En este momento opto por un celular que me da lo que necesito y que no es TAN costoso, aunque debo comprarle algunas cositas para protegerlo y mejorarlo, bueno la verdad esta mañana había tomado otra decisión, pero ya que es hora de terminar con el insomnio y con mi etapa BlackBerry de una vez por todas.

Hordeolum

Well, it seems now a stye on my eye is the big news today... well it's not like Bin Laden's death is not important but, the fuck with the taliban if my eye hurts, and the worst is I got ice on my eye yesterday and the best for the stye is heat... big mistake... so now my eye is horrible, now I can't be sexy or attract too much... I hate the way I look with this thing.

Well in other news, well having no internet in my phone is hardest than I thought. I need to know, I need to be posted about what's going on in the world, for example yesterday I had to know about Bin Laden's death while I was watching "No Country For Old Men" and yes, I couldn't finish the movie because of the news.

Well, like stye wasn't bad enough I had throatsore all weekend, and it's not funny having two things to complain about I hate it...I don't know and I'm not sure, and I don't think it's related to my headset, maybe I'm listening music too high volume or something... I don't know, I don't think so... shit I don't wanna be with this fucking stye all week long, I have stuff to do in Sincelejo, real importante stuff, shit!

Well, while I wait for the stye to heal, I'm gonna think about what's coming for me next weekend, like 30 hours of freedom for me, let's wait and see. As Usual.
