Hungarian update!

Hey there!

Greetings from Budapest!! Beautiful city, full of corners ready to be captured by my bb camera. I'll start posting as soon as I get back.

In the meantime, I'll tell you just how good I was today with a bow and arrow. All that wii practice and LOTR replays has finally paid its result! And I am ecstatic.

I certainly have a gift. Such is Life.

Dear passenger, we are going to make your holiday total crap

I really wanted to get out of Madrid for a couple of days. Really really wanted to, but I guess someone has a different plan for me, cause here I am, three hours after the departure time of my flight and still here.

Not only did I wake up at 5:15, but I had to put up with more crap than desired on a four day holiday.

Flight delayed, three hours and counting, and it doesn't look like we'll take off any time soon. Worst of all, I'm stuck in the plane, with some very annoying passengers wishing to stuck the seatbelt down their throats.

Of course, the crew's help in a scale from 1 to 10 is something between minus 12 and zero. No explanations, no information and no kindness either. Damn you Malev. Crappy airline...

Being my sister's assistant to help her with her broken arm doesn't improve my humor. I may have to dedicate a whole post to this issue.

Patience is a Jedi virtue I do not posses... Such is Life.

Making my life easier

Hey there!

Still trying to find the blue narnian donkey, but in the meantime I found a way to make my blogging life easier, and thus, yours more miserable.

This is my first email post!! Such is Life has become part of my Bb's phonebook and now all I have to do is email my posts to a very secret address any mediocre hacker could find in less than I produce my blue narnian donkey. But this is a huge step, one which I hope will let me keep posting on a regular(er) basis.

See you around, such is Life.

The short second life of...

Life is hard... and then you graduate.

In the case of a junior lawyer, life is hard... and then they suck your blood completely, make you believe you owe your life to the firm, squeeze all your strength, push you to the limit, make you wish you had studied something else, make you wish you hadn't studied (at all), take your money, your time, family and friends, make you look for (and find) a blue donkey fluent in chinese directly arrived from the magic land of Narnia, and then at the end of the day, they don't even thank you for the effort (and right now, a blue narnian donkey fluent in chinese doesn't seem so hard to find...).

Why?

Cause they are making you a favour so that you can become like them and suck someone else's blood come the right moment.

And so you cling to that hope, the hope that some day you won't work as much, won't have to sacrifice your holidays, your personal life, and your feet (cause you make yourself believe high heels are going to make you a better lawyer, of course!) and enjoy an average evening in which you leave the office before 11pm...

Oh, and then you die young.

If anyone asks, I'm officially on holidays, unless of course, you need a blue narnian donkey fluent in chinese, in which case... just leave me a comment.

April Fool(ishness)

Here's an springier look for April, trying to inprove my publishing avarage.

Bamboo for starters, let's see how much creativity this new month brings! Truth is, as far as spring goes, I'm still waiting to see some real sun and warm weather. Not that it makes any difference, since I'm spending Sunday home (pretending) to work.

It's been a crazy month of March at work, and the start of April doesn't look any brighter, but at least Easter is coming, and a trip to Budapest with all the family looks very promising.

Unless something really odd happens from now till dinner time, this is all you're going to get today.

Blogging is complicated! But what isn't?

The 10 worst things that could ever happen to you... vol. III

There I was, entering a restaurant with 12 other members of my family... I should have read the signs then, I should have turned around and leave the place for good, but I didn't.

The following, my dear readers (Thanks Ana for increasing my followers' list by 16,66%) is a list of the TEN WORST THINGS THAT COULD EVER HAPPEN TO YOU (when you go on a family lunch)

1.- There is a horrible painting of some horses riding through a storm on a beach at night hanging on the main wall of the room.

2.- The waiter announces the entrée you asked for is not available.

3.- You go to the ladies and the door doesn't shut.

4.- You try to gracefully keep the door shut while you... you know!

5.- Your sister likes your choice of second so much she eats half (ok, here I'm exaggerating, a lot, but I need 10 things, so let me have this).

6.- The waiter announces the dessert you asked for is not available.

7.- Your sister's dessert arrives before yours.

8.- You steal her complementary biscuit (which looks like this:

9.- You bite the biscuit, then seriously think of blowing in the hole just for fun. You randomly look inside the hole and...

10.- Your fate is decided. When you randomly decide to look inside the hole of the biscuit THERE IS A GIGANTIC GREEN WORM INSIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I chocked and almost died at that same moment. There is no excuse for such a disgusting thing to happen in a decent or not so decent restaurant. 

I could only picture Mr. Gordon Ramsay screaming at the cook, the waiter and anyone in the kitchen, just like I wanted to do... 


Never going back there, the complementary wine and the free desserts could not compensate such a disgusting situation.


Why do these things always happen to me?

The Glist

 Ok, so I think it is high time to post something, march is almost over, spring is coming and my lack of posting is starting to worry me after such a good start of the year.

I've been thinking on posting something on one of my favourite TV shows as of late, and considering how many of the songs of the show feed my iPod's playlists I could go no longer without paying my humble homage to a show that has joined the best songs of the old times and the current ones.

Ladies and Gentlemen, please raise your glass to... GLEE

If you pay a little attention to my blog you may have seen a little list of songs on the left hand of the screen, well, those are or may have been at some time or other my favourite glee songs, but right now, here's my top ten:

10.- Old but fun, and maybe one of Glee's underdog song if there is such a thing for those guys: RUN JOEY RUN

9.- I am so glad they started to give Santana the spotlight she deserves...: VALERIE

8.- Number eight is just plain sweet: BABY IT'S COLD OUTSIDE

7.- Again an all time classic, awesome song, awesome voice (awesome guy too): SWEET CAROLINE

6.- This is not just the song, but the performance (I want this in my wedding)... six goes to: MARRY YOU

Now here comes the TOP 5, most of them from the current season, but just so awesomeI can't stop playing them again and again and again (I've got a problem called song-burning, the good thing is the show keeps feeding me songs on an almost weekly basis)

5.- Another old song, but so relaxing!: LANDSLIDE

4.- Bon Jovi in Glee means success, but in this case, it is just perfect!: IT'S MY LIFE/CONFESSIONS Pt. II

Sorry for the interruption again, but I need to explain my top three a little bit! This next three songs just make me feel great, they rise my spirits, make me wanna shout and dance and scream. For that, they have earned this special place in my Glist. No further explanations, the songs speak for themselves... Enjoy!!!!!

3.- FIREWORK

2.- THE DOG DAYS ARE OVER

 1.- RAISE YOUR GLASS

I like posting a Glee song on FB every week, so if you like these songs and want to hear some more, just stay tuned. Considering how these guys get better and better episode after episode I may have to update this Glist completely before the end of the year!!
