Halloween

Last week was really boring since I do not take my robotics courses anymore. But a few interesing things happened to me. The first was dressing up with my friends for Halloween, the second was finding and old friend and the third was watching "Les Miserables" in philosophy class. Anyway the best part of the week was Friday, I really love "Día de muertos" here at Tec. Me and my friends dressed up as "Pin up girls" which was not a really original custome since a lot of girls came the same way. I liked it anyway. On the other hand I felt deeply sorry for my best friend, he was taking care of a little girl who was an orphan. Last week she had a terrible accident because of a dude working in the orphanatory. He was depressed, and it remind me how fragile life can be.

Learning or something

I finally had my robotics competition, we lost. My team was really sad because we had an excellent robot, the best perhaps, but we weren't ready for the contest. Anyway it was one of the greatest experiences in my high school. I meet a lot of people, I became closer to some others, and I had a lot of fun in spite of losing. It would be very hard for me to try to describe how supportive that team has been with me even when I am a new member. They showed my how to drive the robot with an Xbox control, we played, made plans, we are very excited for the regional competition. The bright side is that we were all pretty motivated to continue improving. The rest of my week was working in the robot and spending time with my friends. I am very thankful now that I see all the amazing things in my life. Against all possibilities and predictions for this semester, I am happy.

Saturday morning

Yesterday morning I was walking by the halls of my school at pajama, it was actually a pretty good feeling. You know? All types of random stuff always happen to me and I always wonder how I ended up like that, but this time I didn’t, I was very happy for that. The Team Buluk (the robotics team of my school) is a week away from Off Season competition, so we stayed working until yesterday at 4 a.m. It was a kind of honor for me to be invited to work with them, because it was the first time that an applicant stays the whole night with them. I thought it would be the worst night of my life, but it was pretty awesome. First we had tacos for dinner and we sang while eating, jaja probably not a very good idea. Then we began working, but when we ran out of Red Bull and we were trying hard not to fall asleep we decided to take a walk. An advice if you ever stay in Tec at 3 in the morning, don't go to the first floor of Aulas VII, it is dark as hell. I also learned a lot, and I enjoyed it. You know? This semester seems to be getting better and better, perhaps my Economics teacher was right, as long as I do what makes me happy everything else will be alright.

Pd: I loved this picture, it was taken by a friend who found really random that I was wearing my pajama at Tec.

Rainbows and stuff

Have you ever heard that cheesy Katy Perry’s song that says "after the hurricane it comes a rainbow"? Well, sometimes it happens. For many reasons I thought this would be an awful semester, and at the beginning, it was. However I have improved a lot my grades, and I learned how to manage everything in order to have time for all my activities. As one of my favorites teachers said once “You know you are doing something good when you stop counting the days for the weekend”. I have also learned to manage assholes, so all the things that worried me last month don’t seem so important right now. Perhaps the best part of my week was Monday; I was kind of blue so a friend took his guitar and sang for me "Iris" by Goo Goo Dolls, I almost cried when I heard it. It is nice to see that in spite all the people that leave our lives and all the people who want to hurt us there are still many others willing to do whatever it takes to make us smile. It has been a pretty nice weekend as well, but I’m dead (: See you, I’ll go to sleep.

This week was a really tough one. I had exams of physics and philosophy, and it is kind of sad because I love them but it seems as I can't do it. And I actually love those subjects, I think that philosophy class has changed my life. But even when my grades are not as good as last semesters, I have been learning a lot and I don't want to be worrying all the time about them. Instead I have decided to focus on learning as much as I can and enjoy it. There are few things I really love, among them, my robotics class, my dance lessons, and writing. So I actualy think I actually owe a lot to my english teacher. Perhaps I would never start writing a blog. And I love it.

Not in love

I feel like I can't even remember my week, it was very long and hard. I don't think teachers realize we have important things to do besides homework. I had awesome plans for the Friday, "I just have to answer my physics quiz" I thought. But my teacher forgot that he had to open it, so he asked us to do it at 7:30, and you know, everything got messed up then. 
If I had to choose the best part of my week, I guess it would be a really nice talk I had with someone. It was pretty motivating to realize how people manage to get through hard times and become stronger after them. Anyway, it was a really boring and common week and I have nothing else to say but that I hope this to be a better one, so goodnight (:

Pd: I found an amazing band, perhaps you'll like it http://grooveshark.com/#!/s/Not+In+Love+feat+Robert+Smith/3gjh8N?src=5 

The butterfly Circus

I had a really amazing week, mainly because the organization I've been working in had it first important event. It consisted in collecting food for an orphanage. The members of UPEC had to go classroom by classroom to ask for the cooperation of the students and teachers. I really liked it, not only because I really wanted people to participate in, but because I realized that I have great persuasive skills. It was really nice, this week gave me the opportunity to learn a lot about myself. And today, we are having the best part of this project, we are taking the food we collected to the orphanage, then we will spend time with the kids, feeding them and playing. It has been a really hard week, because I am also trying to apply to Buluck so I have to take the robotics courses they are giving. Anyway it is awesome, I am very exited.

 On the other hand, I had a terrible Friday night. I stayed at Tec to the "desvivetec", however it was pretty disappointing. I wanted to see División Miníscula playing, but like 1 hour before they turn at the stage came, it began to rain. I was wearing cloth boots and one of my friends had my sweater, so you can imagine how cold I was. Even though, it was fun, we were 8 friends under a tiny umbrella trying to survive between all the people trying to steal our place in front of the stage. 

I didn't really think that the policeman would let me get in the bus as wet as I was. So I went to a friend's house, which is in front of the Tec, and I borrowed some towels and dry clothing. So yes, I was wearing men's clothes. 

Finally I am going to talk about a short film the teacher showed to us in Friday. It was called the Butterfly Circus. I liked it a lot, I really think Nick Vujicic is an inspiration. For me, the movie is about how extraordinary people take advantage from their imperfections and transform them in their strengths.    But the most important message from the short film, is not to judge people because of how they look like, miserable people usually hadn't had opportunities to become something better. We must help them.
