Well-set-up day [Taken from Live Spaces Blog, 06 septiembre 2005, 21:24]

There's some green stuff in my room, it's burning slowly and letting out a lot of smoke with a tingling, delicious smell. It'll probably give me some inspiration for my writing today. :D

Today was a well-set-out day. I'm kinda tired of writing every single detail that goes on (I'm still in my peaceful mood :D), so here's the summary:

I picked up Bidkar and drove to work... got there at 7:20. I worked til noon, I left and Bidkar stayed. I drove to college, took my swimming sufficiency test, and WON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swam 1 km in 18:35. It's not an awesome time, but I haven't really swum since June, so I'm satisfied. It's a 95/100, anyway. But it was one of those strange experiences, like, when you enter another state of mind. I think it was just the adrenaline flowing... cause approving the swimming course was TRULY important to me now. I can now get my B.S. on Dec... that alone is pretty helpful.

Afterwards, I took a long time showering, cause there was HOT WATER!!!! OOOOHHH, SO DELICIOUS! I even got out, and then realized I had not combed well, and my hair was uneven, so I showered again to put it just the way I wanted it. I left the pool at about 14:00, and then waited a while til European Lit. class began... til 16:30. I checked my mail twice or thrice, played www.ebaumsworld.com games (the site's a time-killer), talked with Alberto, did some important calls but the person I was calling for was never there, I got into a Biochemistry conference dictated by Dr. Alvaro Molina, brother of a certain Math professor at college, fell asleep there, and got to my class at about 16:40. I left at 17:20, but I decided to stay a while in college... I didn't really need to leave right away.

So I stayed... I went to the main office to find out if my sister could get her B.S. there, I went to my car, rested a while, then got out, met Annie (she's the really nice girl from chorus), chatted a while, and then met Paola. She was waiting beside G-205 with Chata for a class both of them didn't want to go to. So she asked me for a ride, I agreed, but then she wanted to do lots of stuff before she left. I wasn't in a hurry, so I followed her around. We said Happy Birthday to Guicho (I didn't know, Paola told me), and then we left. It took us a while to get back... maybe an hour. We chatted some on the way, I dropped her at her place, I went back home, and here I am.

Well, that wasn't really the point of the blog. I wanted to write some stuff here. I think I once mentioned I drove my sisters and a friend to a 15th-birthday party. There really wasn't anyone I could talk to, so I wrote some stuff on a handkerchief with green ink, and I wanted to blog some of it. (Not all of it... some parts could be turned against me). So here goes:

"Toxic

How much is the exact balance between social adjustment and self-development? Although society provides the virtually necessary commodities, predecessor of thought and invention, it can also obscure the traits of an individual so completely that, not only does his life revolve around society... but he would see it no other way.

I see people argue on the color of their clothes, sometimes just as heatedly as long-vowed foes. I see people paying months and months of their salary, only to satisfy their daughter's traditional birthday. Parties. I don't know. Some people would not willingly live outside society. It IS very convenient. And it could be really fun, too, if you know where and how to look.

Parties where few guests really want to go. The true intentions of each individual are known by no one except him/her. Is it always like this? Personally, I like to have the element of surprise. And I usually have it. And it would give me some advantage in society, if I knew how to use it. It still is a very very fun thing to have."

You figure it out. I don't know if I should throw the handkerchief away... it's got one of my neat drawings on the back of the writing.

Well, besides that, I bought some new razor blades (finally!) and a lighter. Hmmm... if I only had THOSE two things in the wild, I'd be able to cut AND cook. AND shave. Pretty useful tools, those two.

And besides THAT, I GOT MY ABACUS BACK!! I don't know if I had already said it... but I'm so happy it's back!

And now my dad just told me that Isabel (my sister) is in one of the first five places in the National Physics Olympiad. That's VERY good news. For her, anyway. She'll get some money, a certificate, and maybe a medal. And free food too... she's having lunch tomorrow at Hotel Camino Real!

Oh, and the green stuff that's burning here is called Aután. It's doing a very nice job at keeping mosquitoes away. And for those who haven't tried, it's a better way to light fireworks than the cigarettes you always use.

And I'll be a good boy tonight and go to sleep early. Night night.
