At last! / ¡Por fin!

Hey fellas today was a glorious day..

Why?, you could ask.

Yesterday night, I received this email on my inbox..

"Dear student: We are glad to notify you that we already have your Degree and Professional Cedula at College, so we are pleased to ask you pick it up as soon as possible to our College Services Department at Cuitlahuac Campus with a valid Id, where happily we will be waiting for you. Our timetable at College Services is Mondays to Fridays from 9:00 to 20:30 and Saturdays from 9:00 to 13:00. We will wait any comment or doubt you could have in mind."

So, today I went to the College to pick-up my Degree in which certifies myself as a Bachelor in Computer Systems.

I'm so excited about that. It's amazing how a little piece of paper can bring you happiness.

Another completed stage.

Amigos, el día de hoy fue glorioso

¿Porque?, tal vez se pregunten.

El día de ayer por la noche recibí este correo.

"Estimad@ alumn@: Por este medio informo que ya tenemos en nuestro poder el Titulo y Cédula profesional de la Licenciatura, por tal motivo solicitamos de la manera mas atenta acudan lo mas pronto posible al departamento de Servicios Escolares Campus Cuitláhuac con una identificación, en donde con gusto se los entregaremos.

Así que el día de hoy fui a la Universidad a recoger mi Titulo, el cual me acredita como Licenciado en Ingeniería de Sistemas Computacionales.

Estoy muy emocionado por eso. Es asombroso como un pequeño pedazo de papel puede traer tanta felicidad.

Una etapa más completada.

We are engaged! / ¡Estamos comprometidos!

Hey mates, we have some news for you.

We are engaged, yes!!, we are excited about that, no more "girlfriend", just... "fiance". Jeje!.

What happend?, you will ask.

Can you remember our last vacations?. Well, before that, I bought a ring for my girlfriend and planned to ask her to marry with me on the beach, waiting for the sunset.

We arrived to Cancun on saturday 20 of March, 2010. That day after eating at 28 Market, we moved to our Hotel, on the way, I asked to my girlfriend about watch the sunset in the beach, she answered me with an affirmative sign, so we drove to "playa las perlas". When we arrived, the beach was almost alone, there were just a few couples, we walked to a far and peacefully place with a wooden dock, pretty houses and some nice background music playing.

We seated on the dock to talk in the middle of the peacefully sound of the waves breaking up over the sand, the wind was cool and the ambience turned magic, we were alone in that place watching the sunset, my girlfriend was distracted for a moment, I took advantage of the situation and standed up quickly from the dock, took out the ring box and I knelt on the sand. My girlfriend was took out from his distraction by my movements, then, I opened the ring box and said..

"I'm here over my knees not such your prince in blue. I'm here like a humble man asking you to be my wife".

The time was stopped for a moment and we were sorrounded by some kind of peace, there we were, she and me and no one else in whole world.

My girlfriend couldn´t believe it and then ask me..

- If is a joke?, she said.
- "No, it isn't", I answered with a serious hard face.

My response was accompanied with tears of my girlfriend and with some soft words from his mouth..

- That's a serious proposal?, she said.
- Of course, I answered to her.

The moment turned dramatic, because she was crying and I did the same, suddenly, the calm raised for a moment and a happy feeling, increased inside me.

- Yes!, I want to be your wife!, my girlfriend answered me.

I took out the ring from his box and put it on his finger, we kissed while the time started to go on...

Hey mates!!!.

We will get married!!!!.







Hola amigos, les tenemos buenas noticias.

Estamos comprometidos y estamos muy emocionados y contentos con esta decisión, así que ya no más "novia", ahora será "prometida".

¿Como sucedió?, se preguntarán.
¿Recordarán nuestras vacaciones? Bueno, antes de eso, compre un anillo para mi novia y planee pedirle matrimonio cuando estuviéramos de vacaciones en la playa contemplando el atardecer.

Llegamos a Cancún el 20 de Marzo del 2010. Ese día, después de comer en el mercado 28, regresábamos al Hotel, en el camino, le pregunte a mi novia si deseaba ver el atardecer en la playa, ella inmediatamente me dijo que si, entonces condujimos hasta "Playa las Perlas". Cuando llegamos, la playa casi estaba sola, solo había algunas parejas, caminamos a un lugar lejos del bullicio donde había un pequeño muelle de madera, unas casas hermosas y una agradable música de fondo.

Nos sentamos en el muelle para hablar en medio del sonido de las olas del mar rompiendo sobre la arena, el viento era agradable y el ambiente se torno mágico, estábamos solos admirando el atardecer, mi novia se distrajo por un momento, me aproveche de la situación y me levante rápidamente del muelle, saque la caja del anillo y me arrodille en la arena. Mi novia, al escuchar el movimiento volteo a verme, entonces yo abrí la caja del anillo y dije...

"Estoy aquí, a tus pies, no como tu príncipe azul, estoy aquí como un humilde hombre que te pide que seas su esposa".

En ese momento, el tiempo se detuvo y fuimos rodeados por algún tipo de paz. Allí estábamos, ella y yo y nadie mas en todo el mundo.

Mi novia no me creía y me pregunto...

- ¿Es una broma?, ella dijo.
- No lo es, respondí muy seriamente.

Mi respuesta fue seguida con lágrimas de mi novia y con algunas suaves palabras de su boca...

- ¿Es en serio?, ella dijo.
- Claro que lo es, yo respondí.

El momento se torno dramático, ya que ella estaba llorando y yo comencé ha hacer lo mismo, de pronto, la calma llego por un momento y un sentimiento de felicidad aumento en mi interior.

- ¡Si! Si quiero ser tu esposa!, mi novia contesto.

Tome el anillo de su caja y lo coloque en el dedo de mi novia, nos besamos mientras el tiempo continuaba...

Amigos...

Nos casaremos!!!

Cielo Rojo en Sydney

Hola a todos..

El día 23 de Septiembre, me llego una noticia muy rara...

Mi novia me comento que Sydney había desaparecido... Yo me quede ¡¡¡COMO!!!, "DESAPARECIÓ", apoco David Copperfield tenia cuentas con Sydney.
Bueno, mi novia termino diciéndome que hubo fuertes vientos, los cuales habían levantado arena rojiza del desierto llevándola hasta Sydney, cubriéndola con un manto rojo.

Investigando en Internet, encontré que estos ultimos dias ha habio vientos muy fuertes en NSW y en Australia del Sur provocando que se levantara arena rojiza del desierto australiano llevándola a la ciudad de Sydney.

Esta ultima amanecio con polvo rojo como marte y hubo muchas contingencias.

Se suspendieron los vuelos a la ciudad, los cuales fueron redireccionados a Melbourne o a Brisbane.

La visibilidad era muy poca, por lo cual transitar por las calles se volvio todo una faena, ya que solo se podía ver a unos cuantos metros de distancia.

Este acontecimiento no es nada común en las ciudades australianas, por lo cual se le pidió a la gente que se abstuviera de salir y que mejor se quedara en casa.


Saludos







Hi Mates..

The last September 23, 2009, I recieved a very strange news.

My girlfriend told me that Sydney had disappeared. 

I said WHAT!!!, "DISAPPEARED", That's insane. Has David Copperfield had problems with Sydney?.

Well, with all that confusion, my girl told me that the problem was produced by strong winds from the last days, those winds loaded with red sand from the outback covered Sydney with a red dust cloak.Searching on the Internet, I found a lot of information about that situation.

I found that the cause of that rare event, like my girl said, was produced by the strong winds from NSW and South Australia, those winds lifted a lot of dust from the outback cause is too dry out there, this caused that in the morning, the sky of Sydney looked like sky of mars, producing many contingencies.

The airport suspended the service and all airplanes on route was redirected to the most nearby airports like those Melbourne or Brisbane.

The visibility was so blurred and caused a slow down on the street traffic, because you could only see a few feet ahead.

This is not a common event on Australian Cities, that is why the goverment asked the people to don´t leave his homes and stay on them.

Here you can find some pics about this rare event..
