Sunset

The sky is beautiful.

Post Christmas

Hello again, like every year I spent Xmas with my family, lots of
food, champagne and candy. I didn't go out later for partying, just
stayed at home.

It felt so strange, so out of place, maybe I'm too old (or too young)
for those things. When I was a kid all the celebration had a sense:
the gifts; but now, all the magic is gone. It could be that I'm too
sensitive...

Anyway, I wish you a very good year.

Just for fun

I changed a setting in blogger formatting that allows to show 999 posts in the main page.

Event Horizon

The amazing soundtrack is from Orbital, do you remember? the movie about the ship lost in space, with Morpheus and the actress from NipTuck. Orbital also made the soundtrack of The Saint. I didn't know them, they are terribly famous, you can download many mp3 from their website. They've remixes from Madonna, Kraftwerk and something with Metallica. The Event Horizon Soundtrack.
I've been also hearing Telepopmusik.
She's sooooo right.

Friday fury

Today, some lucky people have pop access to gmail, following the tradition of this last months, I'm not in that group. And again, msn defies google with their brand new beta search. As always, shamelessly copying the concept.

At last

The counterpart in Spanish has its own name: akuma.com.ar!.

Before I go to bed

The death blog idea came to my mind. Like in the death zone.

Lunar Eclipse

The end is near. I've seen the moon hiding in the sky, maybe it was a big dog that have eaten the moon like a mooncake, in the Chinese Mid Autumn Festival or Moon Cake Festival.

How ignorant a person can be, just take my example: seeing the moon, thinking 'would that be a lunar eclipse?'. C'mon, its half past eleven at night, there is no Sun...

Brain dead. Maybe I should sleep more, not like now. Bye.

Finals, again

Another time that I've to study, another chance to be preparing the exam one day before, or maybe the same day. At least now I'm sure that my name will be on the list.
I searched on the archives, on November 18, 2002, ... has my student life had any advance in two fucking years? I would like to say yes, I would like to say that I've my degree just hanging on my wall. But I can't. Maybe someday I can blog about this post smiling.

First mobile post

Technology advances. Life changes. Blogging changes too.

Enjoying

Soulmate and a little of Jpop.
The perfect combination, a rainy atmosphere makes it just beautiful.

Chinese Shanghai Dialect

Japanese is too easy for me. So I'm after this, I'm also learning Go (aka Chinese Chess). Go is really fun, I would like to play it in a rush. But playing like that will become losing.
(???)

Where am I going?

I wish so many things lately. Things that only I can grant me.
The reality today is a mix of problems without prices, challenges of wisdom and not skill. Magic, magic is the only thing that can save me from the same. Or my dreams, the good ones, those who go away and the get back. Where is real? if unreality was better, but not enough to be the real thing. The unreal or the ethereal, the last one for me; where there is no time nor space, competition is fair, there is the sensation. It's so simple but so unknown, if I know I will go for sure.

Wow

I wanted to do the same, this mytinygarden.com makes me feel like a kid with a toy camera. (Maybe I am that)

Syntax error

Wrong blog...

Clear conscious

Told this client the truth about the project. It was just editing an html...

Football Football Football!

The football experience was not that traumatizing. For the first time in my life I've converted a GOAL. Yes, that sounds fucking unbelievable, but its true. More amazing is that two goals were made by me.

I had fun playing with my colleagues. Obviously, I didn't accepted that fact in front of them. I cannot stop being me.

Note that this sport is very demanding physically, and not only that, you can also hurt yourself a lot. The sand on the floor can wipe out skin brutally, while you slide o bump (and it does). Now you may know why football is hard on my knees. Anyway, No, I'm not (and wont be) a football fan. Never ever.

Heading Spain

It's not confirmed, but I may go there. Madrid.

Cellphone is a toy

A very expensive toy. But I love it.

Quote

While reading I've found this quote very interesting:

One of the principal functions of a friend is to suffer (in a milder and symbolic form) the punishments that we should like, but are unable, to inflict upon our enemies.

This comes from 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley (1894-1963).

A Phrase

I always loved your madness.

Is Alive

The malice is back. Yahoo!.

Gmail again

As you may notice, your gmail account may have invitations available!. I'm thinking about my children accounts... I wonder who'll be my next grandchild?. This foaf thing is amazing.

Art

It is through Art and through Art only that we can realize our perfection; through Art and Art only that we can shield ourselves from the sordid perils of actual existence.
Oscar Wilde

Mail blogging

I'm happy that I cant post a new entry just by sending an email. This
post was delivered with gmail, directly. It's nice and comfortable.

You won't catch me blogging

no

Nice again

I had a pretty busy weekend.
I really need to rest now. I don't know why I can't go home now.

Gmail is beta
I'm noticing some issues in gmail, apparently randomly I see some "oops" error messages. That is very bad karma.

One task done
At last, faex new design is already up, there are some fixes remaining or pending, so don't be rude with me when you criticize.

This was a crosswords weekend
The only way to let time roll freely resulted to be solving this mad little puzzles. Cheating is achieved by -unlike in videogames- reading a dictionary. I may code a crossword generator, wait, I coded that once. Where is that now?. I'm looking for a frog.
The keyword is 'tango'.

Active Day (not me, the day)
Dreamed about a movie like story, just imagined by my subconscious.
Returned home thinking about a way to trip around the world. The ideal transport was a Yacht, later, a Zeppelin came into my mind.
When the bloggin' mood catched me, discovered GMail. I have GMail, the google webmail. Also my nick was available! I have Gmail! I have Gmail!. This is _the_ hype.

I missed home
Today I arrived home again, it wasn't much time since I left. My dreams were nightmares the last two days. Luckily I don't even remember them. Right now I feel like shit.

Today I dreamed with God
An amazing dream, one of those that can be confused with reality. I was in some kind of building, full of windows that go to the street, working on my previous job, but this time we were saving the world. Moments later, I find myself alone in a room (big like a parking), and then floating in the air, I see God's image, in that exact moment, I feel like touched -admiring this revelation- and tell to myself 'I believe, Why do I ever doubted?'.
God was a woman, much like and hindu goddess, dressed with tunics and long dark hair, I have sought her face, the body was glowing with an aura of light.

Long time no see
This week was terribly consuming. I think I aged one or two years in this past five days. Well ... Where are you?!!! call me again! call me again!. I miss you a lot. While you were away I've found almost seven ways to summon you. Yes, black magic and all stuff. Ignore that black magic stuff, it was just to give dramatism to the thing. -I wont eat if you don't come back! ja, ja-

Oddities
Plant a tree.
Have a child.
Write a book.
The three sentences have twelve characters long, with or without counting spaces.

I can't sleep
There is a growing pile of things that I should do. Firstly, I've to survive this (last) year of boring consuming madness on the university. Secondly, I've to amass massive amounts of gold, collect the payment checks for almost 2500+1000+100 dollars, thus, finishing 2 proyects, also get the last salary from my previous job. On the third place there is this recurring proyect that will never end, I could extend it and evolve, but it will take some time (that I don't like spending). Fourth, is for my current job. Fifth is for this forthcoming proyect, maybe I can get some coins.

Ego
It's all I and I. The are two options: my egocentrism is out of control or I'm facing the limits of my knowledge on this crappy language.

I've to read
Bram Stoker's Dracula.

I want
To hear ambient music in an open marble room, with a fountain in the middle and tisue curtains waving softly, somewhere will be a comfortable desk and over it a pencil and a paper block.

Eight Seconds Exposition
A gift for Saint Valentine's day. With love from my camera. Happy ever after. ;D

Twentieth of February
My team has to finish the first stage in the core development.

Alien Highway
The neon.

Not again
For the first time in my life, I've rejected a job offer interview. I've done it because I like where I'm now.

Tomorrow
I'll be wasted. I can't sleep, proof that I ate too much. Chicken with potatoes, very well cooked. Here, try some!.

Fractals
Apparently, their father was Gaston Julia.

Don't forget!
Write down all your dreams just after you wake up. Yes, before even washing your face.

Happy Holidays
Enjoy.

Thanks NASA
Did you know that humans have an increased rate of lung cancer due to SNAP-9A's global dispersal incident?. No?, then google it!. We are talking of the complete Earth, not a country, not a continent, the whole world was affected. It seems that a geiger counter can check this (measuring your body).
Back in April 21, 1964 a plutonium-powered U.S. satellite (SNAP-9A) fell back to Earth, breaking up and spreading plutonium worldwide.

Concrete psychedelia
The rare wild flower and a water tank. Both are part of the urban wilderness. Acid junkie nature.

Extreme Tourism
Unbelievable. In my homeland, the new tourist boom is going extreme. I'll give you a brief. The tour consists in a group of foreigners racing one each other for one goal, reaching the finish line unharmed. The game core is based in the fact that initial locations are demografically unpleasant (they are like ghetto encampments), surrounded by misery and crime (the law of the jungle).

So, this is the extremeness of the thing, if you come from the first world, you'll be bored by having anything served and be babysitted by police security. This is your chance to demonstrate your suburban survival skills.

The pathetic fact: we -the third worlders- have to manage this situations (the challenge) everyday.
The good side: we've no charge :D

Florianopolis, Santa Catarina
Mmm, Brazil. Today I perceived the soft perfume of a tanning/sunblock gel, instantly taking me back to the Praia. Lots of nice memories are from those days. That picture...

Suddenly, The origami red hearth poped on my desk.

Voluptuous Sky
The clouds at South are simply beatifull.

Dreams come true (well, some)
Sony QRIO (also check the flash version of the site, the pictures are amazing) is just what I wanted since I've memmory of the word robot. The ninja styled body, the three cameras, the wireless networking support and the autonomous behavior control architecture. After googling for it's price, I found Availability: Prototype.

It's the fact of buying a robot what makes me think this: a robot that I'll treat like a man, buying him, sounds like slavery.
With the dog (AIBO), this was not an issue, because some people actually buy dogs without any moral complains.

Also have in mind the posibilities that result of combining wireless networking with a bipedal all purpose robot. You can use them combined with a computer to scan your house for lost things, as surveliance robot cameras, you might configure them to use their voice synthesizer to answer the phone and the door. It's amazing. This robot will give a new vision of what a true robot means, the becoming of an all-in-one device, with full integration of all other artifacts.

This robot combines the features of a digital camera, a laptop, and a mobile phone. And returning to the price, lets figure some numbers, AIBO (the dog) actually costs between ~600 to ~1500 USD. So QRIO won't be cheap. Will I live enough to see the future?.

Nihil

Evanescence
I like it.

I have to draw
Something.

Afterlife
If I never stopped believing in afterlife (in heaven). The hope of dying will mantain me alive and happy.

My ex-car
It's being used by someone else, a stranger. They have converted the marvelous machine into a moving banner. The bannerized car concept resembles me that night, when she wanted that I publicize the enterprise (my thrid world enterprise). Well, someone else have done what I cannot. The worst thing is that they do publicity of a Disco (a thrid world disco called America), they are exactly the kind of people I use to oppose. In a synthesis, I sold weapons to my enemy.
Puting aside that I actually earn some coins for the sale, in the end was my laziness that cost my car.
What if my laziness cost my happiness?... Anyway, they found a way.

New new job
Wow, I fucking like this one. I should have picked them on the first time. The atmosphere is the best. My role is well balanced. This is a short -six month- project, but they are organized, and provided all the infrastructure very elegantly. I haven't seen their hardware yet. I think this is going to be a very exciting experience. Wish me luck.

Extremly
Another rare finding in google, look at this list of count by lastname taken from real statistical data in year 2002. My lastname is one of the tops. Grrr.

Frustration
I'm making a recopilation on wich areas, hobbies (not the little ones on Lord of the Rings), careers, aspects of life, I was or am frustrated. Here is the list: a frustrated artist (clearly you can see it with you own eyes), a frustrated inventor, a frustrated electronics technician (I've never fix any electronic device), a frustrated boyfriend (...), a frustrated lover, a frustrated friend (I have none, maybe one), a frustrated colleague, a frustrated martial artist (sipalkido, taekwondo), a frustrated hacker, a frustrated cracker (my cracks will never get listed), a frustrated poet, a frustrated photographer (I can't get the twisted picture), a frustrated philosopher, a frustrated coins collector, a frustrated chef, a frustrated dj (yes I've downloaded ReBirth), a frustrated poison maker, a frustrated alchemist, a frustrated bussines man. For the close future I've reserved a frustrated engineer, a frustrated architect and a frustrated employee.

A picture of the moon
I see the moon surrounded by the morning's dark blue,
meeting the sun at south's dawn,
quietly stays in first quarter phase,
I wish you see the moon close to me,
...
Pictures I've taken: the moon at today's early morning.

Quotations
The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it.
He knew the precise psychological moment when to say nothing.
Women are meant to be loved, not understood. I must write a book.
Women represent the triumph of matter over mind, just as men represent the triumph of mind over morals.
The world was made for men and not for women. ( :D ) I told this one to everyone before even reading it.
If a woman wants to hold a man, she has merely to appeal to the worst in him.
These mainly belong to 'The Picture of Dorian Gray'. When I grow up, I want to write like that.

Oh la la
The desktop I like.

I need to draw
Seriously.

Tomorrow
At dusk I'll quit my new job. Why?, because I hate the environment, the coworkers are arrogant ignorant slaves, the air conditioning is unhealthy, the orientation of my desk was specifically forced to show what I'm doing to my boss, the contract isn't for a year as they lied, it takes almost two hours to reach the office from home, the salary isn't the best, the fourteen inches monitor don't suit well for a programmer, and there is no place for lunch. So, what I'm loosing? the two free weeks promised, the high speed unrestricted internet access, the dell optiplex desktop and the possibility of learning new shit. The only problem: I haven't decided the shape of my resign.

The secret of being a surrealist
After seeing this test of the effects of LSD in an man, and this recopilation of what seems to be a change of style, with the famous glow common in the Psychedelic Art. I wondered about what was the nature of LSD creation?, after googleing a little I found that was a laboratorist error in 1943 that make contact with some derivatives of lysergic acid for lab use. Also, it appears to be that the CIA was funding the R&D of a mind controlling drug.

Heavy
I've one of those dreams again. It was shocking, woke up me at late night.

I found it
This is what you must have.

Scary dream
I was in a common holidays atmosphere, all my family were involved. In this alternate reality, my father leaves home in a silver car (is a concept car of neoclassic design), mom asked divorce to dad, because infidelity, he was leaving home too frequently so the suspicions over him goten uncontrollable. Mom goes to my grandparents home to live. I feel very bad and sad. Dad doesn't want anything to do with us.
How strange is this, I used to think that I DON'T CARE about this, but this cloud mean the inverse.
