Is it Fall yet?

So, I had the feeling the summer was over and we are into Fall. It turns out I was mistaken. I can't explain otherwise the heat of these last few days. It has been over 90F day and night and it's making my life miserably. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against summer and/or hot weather. But it has been too hot for a summer this year for me, so I just want to get it done. I know my number one thing on my summer purchase list next year... A/C!

This week passed by really fast, I didn't realize. Maybe it was because the week started on Tuesday, since Monday was Labor's Day and therefore a day off for most of us. Maybe because I had an easy week at job, no troubles. Anyhow, bottom line is this is the second weekend of September. A busy birthday month for me. A lot of my friends and family celebrate their birthdays this month so starting next week I will be super busy going to parties and eating cake (always good).

Yes, I still need to do laundry. Sometimes I wonder if I have enough clothes to go over a month without laundry. Well, pretty soon we will know ha-ha. I have been listening to a lot of music lately and I have been actually listening to a lot of NEW music. Discovering new bands and sounds, always attracts me. It's not very common nowadays to find a new band that will impress you much, but it looks that I did. Now, I have to let my friends know.

Talked with my family back home yesterday. Things are changing down there. For the best, I hope. I told my parents I won't be home for Christmas... again. Yes, they loved that.. you can imagine. I am lucky they are being so supportive about what I do and for that I will forever be grateful to them. I said to them I will try to visit them next summer for about a month. Most luckily it won't happen but, you never know.

Enjoy your week!

It's been a while

So, it has been a while since my last post. The truth is, I wasn't that busy not to write anything. It was more like, I didn't had much to write. Still don't. I realize my life is not very exciting. I just wake up, go to work and then do the usual stuff all of us do. Have dinner, watch a movie or be online checking websites, emails or talk with friends and family.


Well, I had to fix my door. Ever since I moved in to my new apartment, about 4 months ago, my bedroom's door wouldn't close all the way. So I finally decide to fix it. Went to Lowes and bought the necessary tools and then went home with a positive feeling of "I am able to do that". Took the door off, I had to trim the side and the top of the door 'cause I realize that's why it won't close all the way. So, I did that. 10 minutes later the door was fixed and I was a happy man. First time in 4 months I can actually shut the door all the way, very nice.


Last week, I have been cooking a lot and I realize again how much cheaper it is to actually cook home than having lunch and dinner every day outside. I am living alone, so cooking once every 3 days is more than enough for me. There's is plenty of food and it's a) cheaper, b) more healthy, and c) always there anytime I want to have something to eat. I think I will have to include cooking to my weekly schedule.


I really have to do laundry. I hate doing laundry. I am sure I am not the only one. Everybody or most of the people I know feel the same way. It's like someone says "Hey, let's go do laundry" and I instantly reply "How about if we do something else?" and the other person instantly change his mind for laundry. Yes, trying to convince someone not to do laundry doesn't take much effort. Unless it's really absolutely a necessity to do laundry. Which in my case, it's not.... yet!


I can't believe we are in September. Days are flying by, really. Next thing you know, there's Thanks Giving and then Christmas. I went to my local Wal-Mart the other day and they had Christmas stuff already for sale. I asked someone "Isn't too soon for that?" and she goes "We always are 3 months in advance with every season". I am like, "hm, alright". So yeah, Christmas! I probably won't go home this year. Anyway. Weekend is almost here. Make it a fun one, enjoy!
