Merry Christmas...

To everyone.!!!!!!
May Santa bring you guys a lot of things but don't forget the true purpose ... the birth of Christ.. If you are reading this right now, get your ass off your seat and go watch the History Channel. They are airing a series of interesting things about Christ. It's quite captivating ... and this is coming from me!! An atheist, ... actually ... I don't even know if I believe or not! I'm confused.... I'm always confused... arggghhh.. Anyway.. Merry Christmas!!!!!!

Good start today...

Yep.
I don't feel irresponsable anymore! I found my badge!
It was in one bag I had already looked but today after breakfeast I started looking everywhere I had looked again and I found it.
What a relief!!!
I feel so great that I almost kissed my friend in front of everyone (remember her right?!? :p) but I didn't. Not yet... although I want to I don't want to push her, I'll just take my time - I guess it's better that way and I don't think she feels that strong a feeling like I do ... yet ... but I'll grow on her ... LIKE A FUNGUS!!!!!! lol. :p

Anyway, I was bored yesterday (is that rare?) but I was tired and didn't played with my DS. I'm on the verge of finishing Final Fantasy I (I think) and then after that I'll go tear up Final Fantasy II. Maybe I'll finish both games on my vacations next week.

Oh, ... I almost forgot. I'll see if I can score some pictures of the Christmas party on Friday and upload them here and create a page for them. Also, this past Saturday (again I forgot to mention it) my parents made a little party for my sister because she defended her thesis succesfully so there's a PhD in da house! I'll post some pictures of that next week!.

TTFN. Maybe I'll post something else if I'm bored!

The beginning of a Bad day...

First I want to say that I started living in Aguadilla this past Friday.
It's a quiet place where I'm staying and it's actually a cool place because there's some cool breeze at nights so I don't think I need an A/C!

Also, this past Friday was the company Christmas Party. It was kinda cool but I was bored for most of the night. The food was good, the place was good and overall it was a good party but again, it felt I needed something ... something was out of place... I don't know.

Anyway today I wake up at 7:00am and I was ready to go at 7:50 but I was missing something. Yep, I was missing my badge ... I couldn't find it. I looked everywhere but I don't remember where I put it... or maybe I lost it or threw it away? Who knows. But I hate feeling irresponsable. I mean, that's one of the things I hate the most! It's like when someone borrows ... let's say ... a movie for example, you expect to turn it back within a certain amount of estipulated time but if you don't that makes you irresponsable (right HUGO?). Well things like this mess with me good. I spent the whole trip thinking about the possible places I could have put it. Arrghhh...

Then I arrived to work (8:30 aprox.) and they made me move my car to another area because there was no parking (it seems that EVERYONE -- EVERY SHIFT) will work normal hours this week. WTF!!!!!!!

Apart from that, I guess I'm good... I guess..

I received Penfold LP (Our first taste of escape) and what a beautiful cd it is.
It is 200% depressive... just how I like it!
Now why can't I make songs like this?!?
Now I feel incompetent!
Dammit... maybe the afternoon will be better?!?!? I hope.

Was listening to

the old Empire Records Soundtrack and remembered these words:

"In this world, there are nothing but possibilities."

Yep... so true!

Monday, December 13, 2004

This one is in Spanish.....

Bueno... aqui les cuento.
Habia estado medio ansioso estos ultimos dias
y una de las razones era por pendejo!!
Pues es que soy pendejo... anyway, lo que pasa es que ya hace un mes
me di cuenta que hay una mujer aqui que me vuelve loco! Te digo, con solo escucharla
reirse me basta. A veces voy a su cubiculo solo para hacerla reir y verla.
Y pues estuve peleando conmigo a ver si la invitaba a salir y whatnot y el dia que me decidi a salir con ella me di cuenta que no tenia el numero de ella (pero de otra que se llama igual -- duh!! que huevo!!!!!). So, le pedi el numero pero despues no me atrevi a llamarla. Esa mierda siguio creciendo en mi hasta que ya no podia aguantar y tenia que decirle algo...
Pues le dije todo ... y cuando digo todo es todo lo que sentia super cabron! Te digo que no se de donde saque las bolas para hacer eso pues hace muuuucho tiempo que no me sentia asi y que no hacia eso. Hace como 4 años que no sentia algo tan fuerte. La cosa es que ella no es una super reina pero la encuentro perfecta! Es acaso amor!?!?! Si lo es, entonces estoy bien jodido!
Hable con ella bien cabron y pues no le dije que queria estar con ella (apenas la conozco) pero le dije que queria acercarme mas y que si ella me daba la oportunidad pues chillin. Pero por el momento solo habra amistad. Ella no ha tenido mucha suerte tampoco con los hombres (es que yo digo que los homobres son unos perros) y yo se que ella querra coger las cosas con calma... y sabes que? Yo tambien. Te digo que vale la pena. Creo que estoy muy apendejado ... pero ... no se. Hace cuatro años senti lo mismo y sali jodío por pendejo. Cai en depre y me colgué como un cabron en todas las clases. Solo espero que no pase lo mismo en este try por que sino definitivamente mandare pal carajo a el amor y borro todas mis canciones y todo lo que he escrito sobre el tema.

Anyway, eso era lo que me tenia ansioso. Pero ya lo solte. Hable con ella, todo esta chillin. Eramos panas, creo que podremos ser amigos y si en algunos meses o quien sabe mas formalizamos algo, pues perfecto.

En otras noticias, ya estoy casi muda'o pero todavia no me voy. Me voy el sabado o algo asi y me mudo completo ese dia. Ya fue ayer a limpiar el apt. y a acomodar par de cosas.

En el trabajo me tienen haciendo algo medio aburrido pero ... eso es hasta que lleguen mas cosas que hacer para mi!

Eso es todo por el momento.
Gracias por leer mi ensayo!

I don't believe this....

I actually had the balls today to do what I wanted to do!!!!! In the past blog I talked about doubt, insecurities, choices, well ... I made one today. I don't know how it will turn out but at least that will not be on my mind too much now! I still don't believe what I did ... I will leave you with the suspense...

Oh, another shit happened!!
Hey Monchichi... Pedro Vasquez wants to talk with me. I think he is going to offer me Luis's job! I think Luis is moving to another Department or something and Pedro is looking for someone to be the Systems Admin... How about that?!?!! That's fucked up. I'll see if I meet with him today and talk... at least that's what Zorivi said on the phone. Anyway I'll see what's up but I will probably (most likely) not take it. But will recommend Ilde or Hugo (although I doubt Hugo will take this).

We'll see..

Talk to youse later! :p

Wednesday, December 08, 2004

This has been on my mind...

for a month and a half (almost 2).

"Doubt is a pain too lonely to know that faith is his twin brother."

I even made a song and shit that deals with this.
Yep!!! I'm officially sick! :(

Cleaning

Spent like 5 hours yesterday cleaning the current apartment I live in. FIVE HOURS!!!!!. And still I believe it's dirty. I have to leave it clean when I go so ... on Saturday (hopefully my last day there) I will just need to clean very lightly. But what's the worst thing? That I will probably end up taking longer in cleaning the new apartment!!! That SHOULD suck!

This week-end I spent most of the time playing with my GameBoy. Bought Final Fantasy I and II recently and I'm addicted once again. Ahhh... RPG BLISS!!!!

I haven't checked my emails and I'm thinking that I must have like 400 messages (all of the email accounts combined) and I guess that about 350 is SPAM. I hate SPAM... (both the "meat" and unsolicited messages.).

I gotta go now ... do like I'm working.! :p

Friday, December 03, 2004

Here I Go.....

and up I went to Aguadilla. So now I have the keys
of my new apartment. It looks quite good (it's definitely the best-looking
apartment I've had all of these pasts years), the owner was painting and
organizing a few things. I went there and stored some things I had in my car
(for like 2 years I've had books and stuff I didn't wanted to throw out but there was never any space in my home nor my apartment to put it ... now I have space! ;)).
I'll see if this weekend I move the bed and some stuff. Probably by the middle of December I'll be living in Aguadilla.

I've been feeling anxious for these past two weeks and I still don't know why!!!
I'll probably need to talk to my psychologist (my sister :p) and look into this... it SUCKS.! Bye

Wednesday, December 01, 2004

Have you ever felt...

sad and happy at the same time?
Yeah, I get that a lot.
Symptoms of an asshole? Don't know...

that's all.

Wednesday, November 24, 2004

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.. I Got IT!!!

Noooo not an STD (thank God). I found a Nintendo DS. There was only one unit available were I went and it was all mine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So that's why I had not posted earlier (I was playing). This thing really surprised me. The touch screen is a very cool input device for game playing. Now I'm waiting for cool games to come out.. Yep... I'm a 24 year old kid! :p

Car Insurance company called me today. I almost shit my pants as I thought they had the wrong information and shit but no... everything was cool. Whew!!!

What else.... absolutely nothing.
Ok. Back to playing.!

Alberto's probably playing his World of Warcraft right now too!
It looks like a really cool game, too bad you have to pay and that Blizzard didn't put out free servers like always huh!?!

DAAAMMMIIIT ... (part 2)

Since I'm such a dumbass, I didn't preorder the Nintendo DS
(yeah... I'm a geek) and I can't find it anywhere. There are still
some stores I haven't visited so I will check them tommorrow morning
and see if they have some on Stock!!! DAMMIT!!

On a Lighter note, Utah won against Atlanta (the should've) and I
received my copy of Amateurs and Professionals by Penfold one of the
best EMO bands ever (but broken up sadly). I need to buy their LP
(I'm on the waiting list) and then I'll be happy again!
I already have all of their songs in MP3 format but still I support
indie bands like this one that make great music.!!!!

This week is going to be pretty uneventful since I'm on vacation for
the whole week (hence why I hate myself for not preordering the NDS!)
so I'll eat shit the whole time ... probably... I still haven't finished
Advanced Wars 2 (on the GBA :( ).

Oh well ... I guess I'm calm now.!
See ya!

Thursday, November 18, 2004

Dammit....

Well, seeing that I'm going to move soon and all I called a friend
of mine that has a pick-up truck and guess what .... he sold it and bought a Dodge Durango... Argggghhhhhh..... And yesterday the Utah Jazz didn't win their game against Orlando... and tommorrow they're up against SHAQ and Miami... dammit dammit all to hell. You Go to hell and die... (this reminded me, I need to buy Season 4 of South Park)

Uhhhhffff.. Had to get that out of my chest.! :p

Tuesday, November 16, 2004

Got a new home ....

Yep...
Yesterday in Aguadilla I went to see the apartment I got offered and guess what!!!
IT WAS TO DAMN SMALL!!!!
So what I did was take a bigger apartment (in the same place by the way) and now I have a new home. I will be moving probably the first week of December or something like that. So that means that I'm broke as hell but at least my plans are almost complete for this year!

Now I need to find myself a woman, keep working, paying my dues and live happily ever after.... ok ... maybe not.

See you around guys!

Monday, November 15, 2004

Again to Aguadilla today...

So, today I'm going to Aguadilla again and I will
look at what will be my apartment. Already talked with the guy
and he said he will keep it for me till I'm ready to move so that's cool.
Today has been uneventful but at least I have work today and tommorrow, etc.

Good news for me ... Next week I will be at home doing absolutely NOTHING!
Yep, started taking my vacation days now because at the end of the year they will expire! So next week and the last week of December are for doing nothing just sleeping and eating shit all day! Ahhh... that's life! :P

But I'll probably take the time to help my parents painting the house or doing whatever and of course, update the page! I'll probably help my friend Alberto
with his page too because ... IT SUCKS!!! hehehehe
http://www.ajovei.com

Well... this is gelocks (eagle1) signing off...

Talk to you later.

Sunday, November 14, 2004

I updated the site as promised...

and uploaded some pictures from what's going to be out new
workplace. These are some pictures from the inaguration a few weeks ago
but I assure you that more will come. I'm getting to know the people
here and they are a nice bunch ... though ... they are not as wild
as I'm used to hang out with (with the exception of like 3).
Expect more pics later.

Oh ... and since I found this lying in my Hard Disk ...



And a link to a bigger pic...

Thursday, November 11, 2004

I'm bored...

Yep ... workflow is pretty weak.
Been eating shit for most of the day.
This sucks..

Hopefully, tommorrow I'll have something to do.!

See ya.

Tuesday, November 09, 2004

Ok. SO. This is what has happened...

Hello.

I just wanted to say that I bought my first car this Saturday.
It's a Jeep Liberty 2005 and it looks fucking cool! (at least I think it does!)
I bought it black because the color I wanted (blue) was going to take like 2 months
for it to arrive here so ... I know black is a pain in the ass to clean but .. what the heck.
My first car, paying with my own money ... and already I received a Speeding ticket!!!
How cool is that?!?!? hehehehe

Anyway, I also went to Aguadilla to look for housing and I decided to take another
little apartment (like the one I have) of just 1 room 1 bathroom. Once I looked at the bigger
one (3 rooms 2 baths) I decided it was too big for me so... I probably move in the middle of
December to Aguadilla...

In another news, I will probably be flying and staying for one month in
East Hartford Conneticut for training purposes with my company. I think
it will be a great experience going over there, learn a few things, see snow for like
the first time and maybe have a lot of unprotected sex with some gringas!!! hehehe Just kidding on this last comment ..... I think ...

Anyway it's not written on stone yet but ... there's a high probability of me going over there.!

This is all I have to say for now, since I have no ftp access, I haven't been able to post
the inaguration pictures but here is one with all of the team (embedded systems) I work with in the company.

See you later guys..



and a link for this same picture (bigger size)

Friday, November 05, 2004

So it seems that I can update this from Work! :P

Hey again.
This is going to be short because I'm at work.
I just wanted to say that I have pictures and a video from our
inauguration last week.

I'll see what I can do next week... tommorrow I will
look (test drive) the Jeep Liberty and look for housing in Aguadilla.

Well guys, see you later...

NO I'm Not DEAD!!!!!!!

But it looked like it huh?
Sorry for not writing as I know some of you check this to know my status
once in a while (since I'm a bastard and don't email or call anyone!) Well ... what can I say?
I'm doing good. My three months of training expired and I'm officially an Infotech employee now so that's good. I've been keeping up with my movie addiction and buying DVD's like crazy too. Also, this Thursday we had the inauguration of the company in Isabela Puerto Rico and it was really cool. I got to see the Governor up close *she looks old as fuck* and after that we had a picnic (with a lot of alcohol of course). It was a cool day and since this was this past thursday, students celebrate Halloween so I stayed partying till like 5:00 am (to go to work at 9 :P)

Since the company is moving to a new facility, I'm looking for apartments in the Aguadilla Area (near the university of course -- cheap and close to a bunch of places) and I'm looking to buy a car now (trying to decide between Jeep Liberty - Suzuki Grand Vitara -- Ford Excape and Nissan Murano ---- this one is expensive :P ) so that has me thinking.

About me ... I'm healthy, started to play basketball again, and I'm doing good in general and so is my family -- but the dog has gotten fatter and fatter ... I think he will die (the dog is my aunt's but he is always here!).

I think that's all for now... I'm not going to promise I'll write soon because I suck....

So see you around.!
Anything you want to ask or recommend (car selection) email me at eagle1@prtc.net or angel.melendez@gmail.com or gelo17@yahoo.com

See ya!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Holy Sheit!!! ;)

It has been almost a month already since my last post.
I didn't even noticed. Time passes by so fucking fast.
Anyway, I had not update this because I'm a lazy ass and there's
no other reason.
In this past month, all has become routine.
I wake up, eat breakfast, go to work, get out of work, eat, watch TV or
read something and then go to sleep. Repeat the same thing.....

It doesn't seem pretty exciting isn't it?
Well, this has not always been the case.
Last week for example, my friend Carlos went to Mayaguez
and Anibal, Carlos (both of these guys were my housemates in the University) and I got together for the last time with them. Carlos is going to LA to Work
at Raytheon. So we went out and got hammered. Too bad there are no pictures! :P

Also, this past Thursday I was super bored and I didn't want to drink
by myself at the apt. so I just went out.

At first I felt like an old bastard because I didn't recognized anyone
but I found some old friends and met some new ones while drinking
Medallas and talking shit... ahhhh... now that's good.!

Well. I think I have spoke (or written) too much.
I'm going to go now.
Hope to write in less than a month!!! lol


See ya.

My First 3 weeks....

Yep... It has been like 3 weeks since my last post.
So, I'm going to talk about my work experience these first 3 weeks.
The first week:

A freaking boring one. I just read and read and read about Gas Turbines
and all that stuff. Nothing else that week.

Second week:

Now this week was pretty cool! We actually got to look at some
real data and test cases and got down and dirty with them and their scripts.
This is what I will be doing. I will be auditing test cases. Now what are the test cases
about? About different engine settings and possible situations an engine might have.
Pretty interesting stuff.

Third week:

Now this week we actually started working. Auditing tests and stuff.
I think I'm getting better at it but I know that this will come gradually.
Aerospace technology it's pretty difficult and you have to cover a hundred things.!

So these past weeks have been work and work and work.
I haven't done a lot since the building is still pretty much empty.
But this will all change since school starts pretty soon.

Anyway, that's all for now.

Check it.!

Sunday, July 18, 2004

I moved and started working!

Yo guys!
 
So, I finally moved to Mayaguez and bought all the things I needed (like a TV and Home Theater! ;)) and started living there this past week. I felt like a freshman going to college ... not a good feeling! :P
 
I'm almost fully situated over there and started work this past Friday (actually I didn't work -- went there to fill out a bunch of papers and for a tour of the offices). So that means that my first day is tommorrow. I'm actually really excited as it seems this will be a kick-ass job.
 
I'll probably post some pictures of my new apartment and stuff later so be sure to check them out later!
 
See ya!

Sunday, July 04, 2004

Starting again.....

Hello.
Welcome to another episode of LIFE SUCKS ;)
Well... not really.

This past Friday was my last day on the job at Intheco.
So I said goodbye to some old and new friends and although it was kind of sad, I feel happy that I'm going to return again to Mayaguez.

Tommorrow I'll be going there to look for a new apartment but the thing is that most of them are quite expensive. I think I found a good one (hopefully) so let's see how it goes.

I start on the new job on July 15 (or 16th -- hell I don't even know for sure ... I think it's the 16th). That's going to be exciting.

Stay tuned for more info. :P

Wednesday, June 23, 2004

This always happens ...

Dammit dammit dammit.

In this room so cold, as we lay in bed
we realize that this will end.
Not a mistake, as this feels good
but still I will - walk out that room.

A million reasons fly through my head
as to why in this place I cannot stay
As I say this I know I'll miss
everything that makes you the same as me.

And I still battle my own fears and everything I had dreamt.
Ans as it looks I'll battle everyday ... this is the only way
if I want to stay the same....

The same shit happens to me everytime... causing me to fight with my own principles... SHould I throw them out of the window and go ahead like nothing is wrong?
Shit ... you see ... the only thing I believe in it's getting corrupted....

This always happens...

Sunday, June 20, 2004

My Birthday

YEAAAAAHH!!!
YAY!!!!

Uhhhh... am I supposed to be celebrating that my birthday is today?
Am I supposed to celebrate that I'm 24?
EEEKKKK!!!!
SO, today I grow a year older but am I wiser?
In a word ... NO. ;)

Anyway, in other news, I start working in Infotech Mayaguez in July 16 so ... that means that I have to give my letter of resignation this week over at Intheco.
That sucks ass since there's people over there that I'm friends with and the environment is really really cool but this is the time for me to take risks. I'm still young and I can take these chances!
So, I'm taking it.



Tuesday, June 15, 2004

Another Update

Hello guys! (or whoever is reading this -- you must be bored or lost)

I updated the page again so now there's a section where you can download some proggies I have made using VC++. There are 3 right now but I'll probably add more later.
Also, the pictures section is still growing (heck, I will need more web space if I keep adding pictures at this rate). So I put some random pictures of me and my friends and also uploaded SOME graduation pictures but I still haven't uploaded all of them.

Anyway, I was pissed about something and I was going to write and vent my frustrations in here but ... maybe some other time! ;) :P

Talk to yous later ;)

Monday, June 14, 2004

My First Post

Hello guys!
This is my first blog post and it's going to be a boring one! :P

So just wanted to tell you that I graduated a week ago!
It was a long and boring ceremony but I got together with some friends and that's always good.



Anyway, I'm right here at work and I'm really bored (as always).
There was a contest inside the company though.
They are offering $1000 to come up with a new name for the company.
I already made my submissions so .. wish me luck..

Well... I'm going to stop taking shit now so.
See you in the next post :P

;)
