Science is so fucking awesome

So, I have been reading a lot today about the Higgs boson or the Goddamn Particle (or God Particle) and trying to write about it (for another blog I have :P), so far, I still need to understand it a little more, though, it isn't supposed to be a technical post, more like an informative one.

Thanks to the efforts of scientist the explanation of the standard model of particle physics is near complete, this thing was explained back in the 60's with mathematical models and just today (4th of july 2012) was enough evidence to say that it might be right (a 99.999999% probability that the data is correct).

So, I wont get into details right now, I need to finish writing the other post and I'll share it on facebook.

Weird measures to make people vote

So, today was the election day for our next president, something I didn't know was going out in the city was that some franchises decided to offer things to people that voted, for example OXXO, a 7/11 like store offered free coffee to the people that voted and Las Alitas offered an order (or half, I don't remember) of free wings to every voter, I didn't go since we went to buy some food after voting (all the family went together), but we sure went for our free coffees, I was still pretty tired and sleepy after yesterday.

It really surprised me hearing that they were doing this, I was even more surprised with the people that was in the store, there was many people, mostly young and I even saw an old lady (like 70 or older), maybe this is wrong since people should go to vote because they want to, but lets be real here, most of the people in  Mexico don't even care, so I think this is a pretty damn good way of doing it.

And the coffee was actually good, not cafe good (or tenampa's good :P), but good non the less.

Overkill

So, yesterday I went to Sergio's house to play some Diablo III, I got there around 1 pm, and we just started playing, it was freaking challenging, I thought I would be back at home at around 6 pm, but since Sergio didn't go to school we stayed playing there, and since we were feeding our competitiveness we stopped until we finished the second act (the game has 4 acts), that was around 11 pm.

I had never played for so long, ever, but playing co-op is so damn funny, specially when your partner is as competitive as you, but, truth be told, I would never play for so long by myself, not even wow (since most of the times it is multi player), but this game, damn, I have been enjoying it since it came out (may 15), and since it isn't just go and kill everything (well, most of the time it is), we had to change constantly our strategies, balance between doing lots of damage or less damage and surviving longer, or doing lots of damage to groups or single target, getting to some special enemies and getting killed before even doing an attack, making them follow you while the other one attacks them, and some other things that happen in the game, all in all, it is a challenging game and very fun to play with friends, and we are not even in the hardest difficult yet.

[awesome title here]

So, third is the charm... or something like that :P, I missed this, just writing about what happened in my day, so lets continue with 365, although I don't know if we should continue with the count we had or start anew, I'm in whatever is the case.

So, as usual, I have been overworking myself, now more since Sergio, Michelle and I have been working in our game project. For the last month I have been working out too, and even though I feel tired most of the time, I feel like I can be more creative and have more energy than before.

Although, I have had a problem with that, since I don't really know anything of how I should work out properly, some days I just feel tired, other I just can't do anything since I am out all day, I have been working out at least 4 days a week, but it can either be in the morning or before going to sleep. But I'm changing that, today I wrote a schedule, my goals for the next month and a change on my diet, this time it's real, I want to do it right and not just do whatever I feel like doing that day, I really need to change my life style and this is the first step.

So yeah, I'm in to continue this project, I enjoy it and I will be here regularly.

P.S. I feel dizzy, I had this bottle of wine in here with less than half of it and I just drank it in one sip, it was good :D

I suck at drawing 4: Favorite place

I don't really have a favorite place, but I really like spending time in my house since I can do most things that I like, like cooking, playing video games, work, play video games, study, play video games, watch movies/series/documentaries, play video games... well you know :P

I suck at drawing day 3: Fav food

This one wasn't difficult, my favorite food has been for many many years rice, it can be red rice, rice with vegetables, rice with meat, sauce, whatever, I just love rice, but the one that I can always eat with out getting tired of it is white rice with soy sauce, I just love it.
The second and third place goes to sushi and a rice with vegetables and curry that I have made many times at home.

I suck at drawing Day 2

So, today we have to draw our favorite animal... tough one since I don't have a favorite one, unless you count manbearpig as an animal, but since that one is hard I picked a narwal... yeah, it's in my favorite list since they can beat a polar bear in a fight and they are like the jedi's of the sea... need I say more?

I suck at drawing day 1

This is my first drawing at the challenge, I put a picture in half the screen and in the other half I was trying to replicate it with Fireworks, not a great job, but better than I thought :P

Game of Thrones...

Today I finished watching the first season of Game of Thrones, I liked it so much that I now feel the need to read the books, I have not been so interested in a novel in so much time and I don't want to wait till the next season starts on tv, though, I don't know if they sell the books here in Mexico, I'll have to go and search for them :P

Epic!!!

This past weeks I have been reading, playing and watching only epic things, a few weeks ago I watched LOTR The Fellowship of the Ring and thanks to that I began reading LOTR The Two towers (I read the first book last year), I started playing The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, and watching Game of Thrones, and I love it, I am a little obsessed with Skyrim (one day I played like 5 straight hours :P), I have been reading the book while I am at the bus and Game of Thrones I have only seen two episodes but they are damn good, also, I started to hear the album from the 25th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda and it is awesome, I have heard it a few times already, lol.

Back to school

"Estimado(a) alumno(a)

Por este medio, te damos la más cordial bienvenida al Programa de Educación Superior Abierta y a Distancia (ESAD), de la Secretaría de Educación Pública."

Today I woke up to read this message, I just got into the Software Design career, although, I must admit that I'm going to change it to either International Marketing or business administration since both of those will be better in the long term for me and I am doing well with the software design by my own.

The only down side of this is that although I am saying that I'll be going back to school, I won't, at least not literally since this is an online school, on the other hand, I will be helping with some video conferences that are held in the UACJ every 2 Wednesdays, so I have to go to my old school :P

Round Two!!!

Continuing with the idea of Chuy I agree that we should try to start this thing over, or at least finish it, 365 cant die so easily :P, so let me continue with my post of this day, a few weeks ago I was invited to this Radio show that is held in one of the universities of Juarez, The Universidad Autonoma del Noreste (UANE), the invitation was for four shows of 1 hour in which I am going to talk about different topics of my liking, but they need to be about psychology too, so today I had my first show and I talked about Acculturation, a topic I liked back when I was in school.

I wasn't nervous or anything, I thought that I would be, but it was pretty cool, but I forgot to give some promotion to it :( I posted my facebook status when it was starting (I was in the studio writing as the host of the show announced me), I think I am going to be there 3 more weeks talking about other topics, so I need to prepare them so I don't screw it XD.
