Her eyes where lost somewhere near the infinite and a turmoil of ideas was boiling in her head. She didn't knew what to say, and it was easy to know, I only had to watch how she softly bit her bottom lip in that kind of way only she did. <br /><br />While we were sitting in those bright red comfy seats the bar noise started to surround us. The coffee machine's beep, the quick steps of the waitress, the sound of plates hitting the table, people chatting about business, anecdotes or even the autumn weather. All those noises, mixed with our chaotic thoughts led us to just stare at the window, hypnotized by the atmosphere. It wasn't until a sigh came out of her lips that we became aware of where we were. That girl sitting in front of me, that brown-haired, crazy, spontaneous and full of life girl, slowly moved her head away from the window and looked at me with her bright green eyes. In the middle of that bar, in the middle of our problems and chaos, she smiled. <br /><br /> --<br /><br /> Ella se sentó ahí, mirando a través de la ventana del bar sin decir nada. Sus ojos estaban perdidos en algún lugar cerca del infinito y un torbellino de ideas bullía en su cabeza. No sabía que decir, y era fácil saberlo, yo sólo tenía que mirar cómo se mordía suavemente el labio inferior de una manera que solo ella sabía. <br /><br />Mientras estábamos sentados en esos asientos rojo brillantes el ruido del bar nos envolvió poco a poco. El pitido de la cafetera, los pasos rápidos de la camarera, el sonido de los platos al chocar con las mesas, el ruido a cubiertos, gente charlando de negocios, anécdotas e incluso del tiempo otoñal. Todos esos sonidos, mezclados con nuestros pensamientos caóticos nos llevaron a simplemente mirar por la ventana, hipnotizados por la atmósfera. No fue hasta que un suspiro salió de sus labios que nos dimos cuenta de donde estábamos. Aquella chica sentada delante de mí, de pelo marrón, loca, espontanea y llena de vida, lentamente apartó la mirada de la ventana y mi miró con sus ojos verde brillantes. En medio de ese bar, en medio de todos nuestros problemas y caos, sonrió.Claudiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00947711728341355217noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3577283312051557103.post-49389276831116636812011-11-07T19:00:00.000+01:002011-11-07T19:00:03.995+01:00James Vincent McMorrow - We Don't EatJust that, just a song.

<i>Ok gente, es Lunes, y que? Te vas a quejar por ello? O vas a empezar esta nueva semana dispuesto a trabajar para conseguir hacer lo que quieres hacer? Si todavía no sabes la respuesta, déjame enseñarte un vídeo (arriba^) que me envió un amigo ayer noche (subtitulado en español por si </i><br />

Tenía tiempo sin escribir nada, lo echaba de menos.<br />
<a name='more'></a>Están siendo unos días LLENOS de cosas que hacer, trabajos, reuniones, exámenes, gym, es un no parar pero me gusta. Porque es así cuando de verdad exprimes hasta el último segundo del día. La gente se queja de que no tiene tiempo, yo les digo: dejad de ver la televisión, dejad de dormir 12 horas, dejad de PERDER tiempo y <b>aprovéchenlo</b>! La vida es corta, hay que <b>vivirla</b>, no hay que verla pasar sentados desde el sofá. Por ello, levántate temprano y exprime tu día. Leonardo Da Vinci, Newton, Einstein, Shakespeare, Aristóteles, Sócrates, Confucio, y muchos más, todos tenían 24 horas a su disposición, fue su decisión aprovecharlas.<br />
<br />
Siguiendo otro hilo: Tenemos impresora! A algunos les parecerá una tontería, pero para mí tener una impresora propia es algo liberador, sobre todo cuando las impresoras de la uni parecen tener vida propia y por lo visto les caigo mal. Entre trabajos he aprovechado y he impreso lo que ahora son cuadros en mi pared.<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>I haven't written anything for a while, I missed it. These days have been FULL of things to do, assignments, reunions, exams, gym, its a non-stop but I like it. Because that's how you truly squeeze every second of your day. People complains about not having time, I say to them: stop watching tv, stop sleeping 12 hours, stop LOSING your time and <b>make the most of it</b>! Life is short, we have to <b>live it</b>, not watch it pass while sitting on the couch. Therefore, wake up early and squeeze your day. Leonardo Da Vinci, Newton, Einstein, Shakespeare, Aristotle, Socrates, Confucius and many other, all of them had 24 hours at their disposal, it was their decision to seize them.</i><br />
<i><br /></i><br />
<i>Following another thread: we got a printer! Some people may find it silly, but for me owning a printer its liberating, especially when your uni printers seem to have their own life and don't like you. Between work I've printed some pictures that are now paintings hanging on my wall.</i><br />

Ya hace una semana que empecé a ir a nadar. <br />
<a name='more'></a>Hacía tiempo, bastante si soy sincero, que no iba. Contar 1, 2, 3 y respirar, el agua en los oídos, el olor a cloro que impregna el ambiente, el salto antes de nadar donde por una milésima de segundo te ves reflejado en el agua, como si volases, sentir como el corazón late fuerte en el pecho luego de muchas piscinas sin descanso, y los pensamientos. Me había olvidado de todo menos de los pensamientos. Todo el que haya nadado entenderá perfectamente de lo que hablo: el sonido de las brazadas acompasadas al romper el agua y el aire entrando a tus pulmones a bocanadas es lo único que oyes a parte de tus pensamientos, que van y vienen como si jugasen. Te acuerdas de cosas que tienes que hacer, de momentos divertidos, piensas en todo. Aunque hay otras veces que no piensas en nada, simplemente nadas. Son esas veces las que, en medio de tanto ruido y caos, se encuentra un poco de silencio.<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>A week ago I started to swim again. It's been a while, a lot if I'm sincere, since the last time I went. Count 1, 2, 3 and then breath, water in my ears, the smell of chlorine impregnates everything, the jump done before swimming where just for a millisecond you glance your reflection on the water, as if you were flying, feel the heart beating hard in the chest after many laps without rest and the thoughts. I had almost forgotten everything but the thoughts. Anyone who has swum will understand what I'm talking about: the noise of rhythmic strokes breaking the water and the air filling your lungs in gusts are only things you hear apart from you thoughts, that go and come as if they were playing. You remember things you have to do, funny moments, you think about everything. Although there are other times where you think about nothing, you simply swim. Those times are the ones who, in the middle of so much chaos and noise, a bit of silence is found.</i>Claudiohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00947711728341355217noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3577283312051557103.post-71239186848271427042011-10-09T15:54:00.001+02:002011-10-11T19:26:34.162+02:00One week<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<a name='more'></a>Ha sido una gran semana y las que vienen serán mejores seguro. En solo una semana he aprendido mucho y espero que siga así. Sé que aún toca mucho trabajo hacer, infinitos posts por escribir pero, por ahora, voy a disfrutar de este momento bebiendo una taza de café, escuchando música y mirando por la ventana de nuestro balcón al cielo azul dominguero, porque la vida esta hecha de momentos así de sencillos, y a mi gusta parar el tiempo y disfrutarlos.<br />

I know there's a lot of work to do, infinite posts to write but, for now, I going to enjoy this moment drinking a cup of coffee, listening to music and looking out our balcony window to the blue Sunday sky, because life it's made with moments as simple as this, and I like to stop time and enjoy them.</i></div>

Steve Jobs. Hoy en día es difícil encontrar a alguien que no sepa el significado de ese nombre, de la persona que se escondía detrás de esas letras.<br />
<a name='more'></a>Por que? me preguntareis. Muy sencillo, porque aún con sus virtudes y defectos poca gente ha sido tan brillante, innovadora y visionaria como nuestro amigo Steve. Muy rara vez la humanidad se encuentra con individuos con tantas ganas de hacer lo que los demas califican como "imposible" que cuando lo logran, la única reacción que la especie humana puede hacer es morderse la lengua mientras un escalofrío le sube por la espalda como diciendo "esto puede ser grande". Gente como Jobs es la que hace girar ligeramente el timón del mundo haciendo que viremos hacia un nuevo horizonte y lleguemos a lugares antes impensables.<br />
<br />
Una de las cosas que me parece mas destacable de Jobs ha sido su pasión por lo que hacía. Fue dicha pasión la que le empujó a crear Pixar luego de haber sido echado de su propia empresa, y es con esa pasión con la que deberíamos vivir y hacer las cosas. Así lo transmitía él mismo en el famoso <a href="http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html">discurso</a> que dió en el acto de graduación de la Stanford University (vídeo mas abajo).<br />
<br />
No intento poner a Steve Jobs en un podio y darle una medalla pero, independientemente del punto de vista o la opinión que se tenga sobre su persona o sobre los productos de Apple, hay que notar que ha sido un personaje destacable en nuestra historia y que su legado es tangible en todas sus innovadoras invenciones.<br />

<i><br />Steve Jobs. Nowadays is hard to find someone who doesn't know the meaning of that name, of the person who hided between those letters. Why? you ask me. It's simple, even with strengths and weaknesses so few people have been brilliant, innovative and visionary as our friend Steve. Humanity rarely meets people so eager to do what others describe as "impossible" that when they do, the only reaction that the human species can do is bite his tongue while a chill goes up his back as saying "this can be great". People like Jobs are the one who slightly spins the wheel of the world making us turn towards a brand new horizon and get to places previously unthinkable.<br /><br />Personally, one of the most remarkable things about Jobs was his passion of what he did. It was that same passion what led him to create Pixar after being kicked out of his own company, and it's with this passion with which we should live and do things. That's what he transmitted in the famous <a href="http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html">speech</a> he gave at the graduation ceremony at Stanford University. (video below).<br /><br />I'm not trying to put Steve Jobs on a podium and give him a medal but, regardless of the point of view or opinion held about him or Apple products, it should be noted that he has been a leading figure in our history and his legacy is tangible in all its innovative inventions.</i><br />

"Todas las batallas importantes se libran dentro de uno mismo" Por eso necesitas una espada afilada por la determinación y el valor. La piel llena de cicatrices y algunas heridas sin cerrar. Callos en las manos de tanto empuñar la espada y la suelas de las botas gastadas de tanto caminar. A cambio tendrás los ojos llenos de mundo y la mente repleta de ideas junto con una lengua que las sepa expresar de manera sabia. Así es la vida, o emprendes el viaje o te quedas en casa a salvo, la decisión es tuya, la mía la tomé hace tiempo.<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>"All important battles are fought within us" That's why you need a sword sharpened by determination and courage. The skin full of scars and some wounds without closing. Calluses on both hands of wielding the sword and worn-out boots soles of walking. In exchange you'll have your eyes full of world and a mind filled with ideas along with a tongue capable of expressing them in a wise way. Such is life, you can undertake the journey or stay in home safely, the decision is yours, I made mine a long time ago.</i><br />

Es lunes por la mañana y en vez de pensar el típico "i hate mondays" me viene a la cabeza la idea de una nueva y fresca semana, llena de posibilidades y proyectos nuevos. Así que porque no empezarla de buen humor que seguro que así la disfrutamos mas?<br />
Recordad, la vida no esta hecha de semanas ni de findes sino de días, y somos nosotros los responsables de llenar esos días de proyectos, experiencias, risas e historias que valgan la pena recordar.<br />
