Friends

Did you ever live in a foreign country full of foreign people who probably will not spend more than a year in that country?... so if the answer is yes, you probably would be able to share with me something that comes to be quite sad: the fact that sooner or later your friends are leaving the country. One by one those who shared with you wonderful moments depart to somewhere else to live another life. And you know that this is going to happen from the very beggining but anyway that doesn't mean that you are prepared for it.

I have more than one hundred numbers in my phone. For my barbecue I just invited the closest friends and those were more than twenty people. My phone rings and receives messages every now and then. Every week I go to parties, dinners, pubs... In fact my social live in here is a complete success. As I said once to a girl that wanted to have a cofee with me: "I have friends enough" (bad guy). So if one of them leaves I know that there will be lots more to replace him/her but this selfish thinking doesn't really prepaire me for it.

When a friend goes far away that doesn't mean that you are going to break the contact forever. We are in the 21 century. We have lots of ways to keep in touch with a friend that it could be living even in the most distant place of the world. So if you both do an slight effort (some of them do a great effort, eh Amelie? ;) you will probably stay as friends for a loooooong time. But, at the end, when a friend leaves this idea doesn't really prepaire you for the crucial moment.

Because my friends, as that wonderful song says, when a friend leaves something
dies in your soul (cuando un amigo se va algo se muere en el alma).

This post is for you Frederick, we will meet again in Barcelona man, let's burn the city!.

Bueno, y tras tanta seriedad bien viene un video que viene que ni pintao.
El que canta bien es un gaditano como no hay igual, el Juanma (otro dia os
hablare mas de el), el del centro es el mencionado Frederick el belga
estrujaculos y el de la derecha, ese que mas que cantar vomita las palabras,
ese no necesita presentacion.

Ala a disfrutar de este momento tragicomico.

Vamos maestro....

The Koala

This weblog is changing. Before its main purpose was to show my life in here to my friends all over the world. Now it had become more global, so this is the time to show my friens (again all over the world) how was exactly my life before. As we use to say in Spain "para muestra un boton": the video below show us "the koala" a phenomenon in my country playing some variations of his incredible hit "Opá, yo viacé un corrá" which translation could be "dad, i gonna make a farmyard" (with texas accent). Enjoy.

My birthday one year later....

No, it is not an error on this weblog. You will not find older posts in here except the one below. That one was my first post in Dublin, a few days before my birthday one year ago. Thousands of things happened since those days but I prefer to focus on the present... carpe diem guys!!. And this present begins two sundays ago, when I enjoyed my birthday with most of my closest friends (some of them couldn't come) in Dublin before my departure to Spain where I also celebrated it with my beloved family and friends. Next days I'm going to post some videos and pictures of that barbecue and also some other wonderful moments in Dublin. I will try to rebuild this site from the very beggining. Let's see what is the result. A big hug for all of you!! Let's make a farmyard :).
