Procrastination strikes again…


So, I have been neglecting this Project because it wasn’t a priority and someone else had the same Project, it wasn’t hard, actually it is pretty easy, but I had to get some information from other persons since there isn’t a public document where I can get it, only my boss has the documents, like the mission, vision and objectives of CAPSIC, what has been done, some administrative data that I need, but tomorrow I have to present some advances.

I made what I was able to with what I had and I think it is fine, but far from finished, I need to ask a lot of things that I can’t just invent myself, but neither my boss nor I have had the time to sit and do this, I am always with other things as well as her, we’ll see tomorrow how it goes.

Best song ever...

This is something I wanted to write from some time ago, a few weeks ago Sergio and I were outside my house just listening to music and "singing", Dream Theater to be specific, we know that there isn't such a thing as a best song, at least for us, and I doubt that any one can consider any song the best for ever.

While we were there we tried to list our favorite songs, I don't remember why, but we decided to rank the calm songs first, we both accorded that the best calm song from Dream Theater was Disappear from Six Degrees, we like other calms songs as much as this one, but at the moment this one was the one that we thought was the best.

Every album has freaking good songs, it is impossible to say which of them is the best, I have always said that every song has its moment to shine, for example Learning to Live is my favorite song right know, but a few months ago it was Octavarium, and before that it A Change Of Seasons, Never Enough was from some time too (one of the first songs that I fell in love when I started to listen to Dream Theater), and I know that in some time I will say that my favorite song is other one, which one? Who knows :P

It isn't easy to say which one is my favorite, not even from each album because most songs have something to offer either in the music or the lyrics or both, I feel the same with Opeth, Porcupine Three, Redemption, Pain of Salvation, and most bands that I listen right now. All of them are great bands and have amazing songs, and the thing I love about them is that I can listen to the same album time and time and never get bored, and notice things that I didn't noticed before, like with Redemption, I didn't like at first "What will you say" but now I love it, the same with Dream Theater, it took me more than a year when I started to listen to them to sincerely say that I love each album and song from them.

I love music!!!!!!!!
But I must admit that the best song to me right now is this one, so good it will melt your brain with its awesomeness :P

Saved...

Yesterday was my "assistant's" birthday, I told her that I was going to make her a cake, but since we weren't going to be in CAPSIC that day it would have to wait, tomorrow we need to go to make some reports and stuff, but it won't take us that much time, but I can't make it in the morning, it would take me more time that I have. That's why I made today.

The cake is a cherry cake, first time doing it, and I didn't prepare things before, I didn't have time to do it, fortunately I had the right ingredients to do it, and actually some things were just enough for it. I don't know what I did wrong but it was right before adding one of the ingredients (milk), I almost put in in the oven before realizing that I had forgotten that. The weird part was that it was ok without it, at leas the consistency.

I added the milk and it looked like it was pancakes mixture, I almost ruined it, the thought of starting it all over passed through my mind, but it was late already and I was tired as to go to the store, so I decided to try and save it adding more of everything, but I didn't have more butter, so I substituted it with some canola oil, there was no sugar either so I used some of the syrup of the cherries I used in the cake, I added more of the other ingredients with what I thought was the right proportion, before taking it to the oven I had to try it a little to see if the flavor was right, and it was.

Now I just had to wait till it was cooked. After some minutes in the oven it was ready, I made 1 big and 1 small cake, I cut a part from the small one since this one was for my family and it tasted great, it wasn't too sweet, but it tasted like cherries, it was moist and delicious (I thought it would dry since I left them the same amount of time), I was lucky I didn't ruined this, now lets see how they like it tomorrow.

Adventurous?

I don't know if I can call myself that way, but one thing about me is that when I have the chance to try something different or new most of the times I'll do it. Today I went downtown again, I had to go near an smart in "la chaveña" since it was the best place to wait for some one (this some one being my assistant) near where we were going.

I didn't know exactly how to get there since I had just been once and I walked there. I knew in what direction it was and that it was near the railroad tracks, when I got downtown the bus stopped far away from where I was supposed to go, but I decided to just walk till I got there, I don't really know where I was, but I walked as if I knew,I went through some flea market that I didn't know.

After some minutes of walking I got near the place, or at least that's what I thought. There were some people around so I asked them how to get there and it turn out that I was just 2 blocks away from my destination. I got there in time and went to do what I had to do.

Technology illiterates...

So, as I wrote some time ago the "Colegio de Psicólogos" is going to screen a movie and make an analysis of the movie by two psychologists, the movie that we choose was Lolita from Stanley Kubrick, the point here is that the manager of the theater said that the movie had to be in Blu Ray, but who knows is a blu ray? Well, you might say that most people, but here it is different.

I had to try at least in three or four different occasions to explain what it was before giving up, I made analogies like x = y like w = z, but it was too much for some to understand it, I tried just saying that it was like a dvd but newer, I tried with other forms but it seemed like talking with a kid, they just didn't understand.

I don't know if this had anything to do with something that happened today, but I wouldn't discard it. Sergio and I went to Las Misiones to hang out and we got to Sanborns, some weeks ago we saw a collection of Stanley Kubrick movies and some of the movies could be used at the "Colegio" for future events or other things, well, the problem was that when my boss went to buy it it was already sold out.

When Sergio and I went there we asked if they had it again, but they didn't, I asked if they had Lolita in Blu Ray and it was there, but before buying it I called my boss to ask her if anyone hadn't already bought it, unfortunately she told me that they decided to get it on DVD and they didn't had it in that format because it was easier to watch or something like that, I don't remember the exact words, but going from a blu ray to dvd just because you don't understand what it is is silly... or dumb, I don't know, it was ridiculous, but whatever it is their decision.

P.S.
If you guys can and want to see it, it will be screened this october 15 in Las Misiones at 9:00 a.m. (I know it is way to early, but there was no other option) and the tickets will be 50 pesos per ticket.

Prepared...

So, today I wanted to finish some work and to avoid going to my parents house (for food or water, not to avoid them :P) I prepared some things, after breakfast I cut a big slice of watermelon, a few oranges and an apple... it didn't survive though, I ate it before going out, I also brought a jar with water.

I went to my room and worked for a few hours, watched some Criminal Minds, and worked with other things. All in all, it was a productive day, though, I feel like a shut in sometimes, even if this past week I was out almost all day at least three days :P, well, at least this project is almost finished.

Coffee...


Sometimes not even coffee is enough to wake you up.

Today as always I woke up early, and since I was unable to sleep again and had some work to do I started to work, I finished what I was doing before breakfast, after eating breakfast I started to feel sleepy, I decided to prepare me a coffee, and it was pretty strong actually, even though, I was still very sleepy after the coffee, so I decided to rest a little. Unfortunately when I was almost falling sleep I got a call...


Well, I can't complain, it was from CAPSIC, I am going to have two new patients starting this Monday, with this it will be four and one still on hold. After that I worked a little more on other things and played some Batman Arkham Asylum, I beat the game today, I didn't know I was almost at the end of it, it was worth it. Now I am ready for Amnesia The Dark Descent...
