1 out of 3 people who died last week end in traffic accidents in Spain last week end were motorbike riders. Taking into account that motorbikes in our country are only the 8% of the amount of vehicles on the roads there must be something we all could do. I lost a friend who had bought a brand new motorbike a year and a half ago and I know many people who have lost arms, legs or have suffered horrible injuries. I hope all the bikers accept that they must ride on open roads under speed limits, I hope the rest of car or truck drivers respect the bikers because their own body is the only protection they have, I hope the governments would spend part of our taxes on new road barriers less harmful for the riders and I hope this figures will never be repeated in the future. Ciao.
Last night I discovered that someone had moved into the apartment above mine. Some time ago, lived there the ancient owner of the apartment who was a complete asshole. He used to have parties during the week days, watch the TV at the highest volume level possible, argue with his girlfriend and make love to her as in a porn film just 15 minutes later, ....and so on. The girl worked in a bakery on the corner of my street so whenever I bought there some bread I couldn´t stand the sight of her face and her hands touching MY BREAD whith tha hands that I knew were full of ......, and she didn´t look very tidy. I still remember somebody took there a dog that never went out of the house so he was waiting for the guy to come home to start barking asking for a little stroll. One day she left the home, and at least the hard sex was over, and some time later he disappeared too. I hoped he had never payed the loan so the flat could be sold again. But happiness does not last for ever. When I got to bed at about 1:00 am the banging of the doors, the loud tv and the yelling showed me that he could be back. The worst of my nightmares has come to reality. No more sleeping in the next future. I think I am moving my bed to one of the empty rooms in my apartment. If I commit a crime you know the reason why. Ciao.
Now summertime is almost over, I have decided to start the assembly of the Ikea furnitures I bought. I don´t know whether the task will be as difficult as many people say but I feel tomorrow will be the D day. Thanks God if I find myself on trouble I can count on some friends who are skillfull guys and will be willing to help me, at least I hope so hehehe. It´s only a 1,5x2,00 mt wardrobe, nothing for 1 year student of engineering when I was at university.We can watch a very funny advertisment on the spanish tv about how anything can be easier than assembling an Ikea product, and the ad is about mobile tariffs, wich nobody understand them.
I had spent too much money on my present home's refurbishing so I sweared that, in case I ever bought an apartment again I wouldn´t waste my money again. And that situation has come to reality only six years later. Everybody say that Ikea furnitures are worth the price. I will tell you next monday after a weekend of swating, swearing and suffering. We can watch a very funny advertisment on the spanish tv about how anything can be easier than assembling an Ikea product, and the ad is about mobile tariffs, wich nobody understand them.
If I succeed on the task I will study the whole catalogue hunting for the rest of the stuff. I hope I can keep all the fingers safe and sound from the hammer. Wish me good luck.Ciao.
A year and a half ago I lost a friend on a motorbike accident. We knew each other for almost 20 years and we shared a lot of experiences, hobbies and passions. He was the first youg person that has passed away really close to me. We have all lost our grand parents, old aunts and ucles... but that shock has nothing to do with the one you feel when you realize one of your closest friends will never be by your side.
He had just bought an apartment in order to live with his girlfriend. You all may imagine how distroyed she was when she was told the news. On top of it all her dad died too on the road while he was practicing the cycling. I don´t know why life must strike two times to the shame person. She worked as interior designer in a well known store in our city but she left the job because she couldn´t find any motivation on that after the accident.
After months of misery, pain and agony she has discovered what she whants to do in the future. She will be joining one of the best schools of design in Spain, that is settled in Barcelona. The classes begin next Monday and we made the removal to Barcelona last weekend. She has rented a little apartment in the center of the city and we have moved all her belongings on a rented van and she will be able to start her life again. I wish her the best of lucks. I feel very proud of my friends.
Who whats to be back home after the short but very pleasant summer holidays? Not me, for sure. I should be home by last sunday in order to have some rest before returning to my office on monday. I must be the most irresonsible person I know all over the world because I arrived home at 2 am yesterday. I get up usually by 7am, so I didn´t sleep at all because I was too worried thinking that I was not going to hear my alarm clock and I would be late, as usual, on my first day at work. That´s why I feel worn out and I will not get over until next week end. Maybe I should be on holidays again. Let´s suggest it to my boss.... Ciao.
Homer Simpson is my idol, I love him. I don´t mean loving him in a sexual way, I mean being a super fan of him, enjoying every minute he appears on tv. I went yesterday to the cinema with the biggest popcorn bucket I found willing to have the funniest time of my life. And God knows I had it. We were sourrounded by tons of children laughing just because The Simpsons are cartoons, maybe we were the only people older than 20 there but the effort was really worthwhile. I wish they will offer us a second part as Maggie promised at the end of the movie. If you still haven´t found the time to go to your nearest cinema please look for it, Homer will never deceive you. Ciao.
I have just watched on tv the accident of the bridge in Minneapolis. I always feel dizzy when I drive along a very high bridge and pray the Lord it wouldn´t fall down. I can´t avoid thinking on that poor people plunging into the void. Now a days accidents are so common that we don´t pay attention to them but this time I have been stunned by the news. Ciao.
Many people in Spain have discovered a new way of enjoying the holidays: travelling by foot along "the walk of Santiago" as the pilgrims did during the middle age. The route starts in the border between France and Spain and ends in Santiago de Compostela, a city that belongs to Galicia a region in the NorthWest of Spain, above Portugal. The distance to walk is about 800 km and a they usually cover 25/30 km in a day. If the mathematics are right people must spend at least a month in their lifes on this purpose.
Some friends of mine decided last year to try this experience. They live in Alicante, in the SouthEast of Spain. I know them for several years and they are a lovely couple that got marmried two years ago. As one of the stages of the walk ends in Pamplona they rested at my home. I looked after them the best I could. They had been walking just for three days but they looked quite tired. I hope they will be able to reach Santiago but I wouldn´t bet a single Euro for it.
Thy brought me a set of pictures that we took last year when we visited Barcelona. We were invited by Honda to test some cars in the Montmeló's Circuit, where on May the Formula 1 Grand Prix takes place. It was a great weekend although I had forgotten that they had taken some pics and films on the circuit. Thanks God that´s why we are nothing without our friends. Please always remember that. Ciao.
