I'm trying, I really am

Gosh! I'm really trying this time, but even though I'm putting effort and perseverance it still seems I can't get it. Why is there always something that keeps me away from achiving my objectives? The sad side is that the real problem is nothing else but me myself. The deadline is not there yet, but it gets closer by the minute...

Melancholic time...

Bash for example

Recently I've had to deal with bash regulary, but I keep forgetting the "for" syntax on bash. I've thought a good place to keep an example would be the blog. Here it is then:

for i in $(seq 1 100); do java -classpath classes pcusr78.practica1.Principal ; done

The sentence just executes a hundred times a small java program I've been working on for university. Hope it helps someone else!

Deserve...

I don't deserve it.

That's what I'm feeling right now. Wanna know what? It *SUCKS*. A lot. What have I done to be so lucky?

I'm feeling guilty accepting such a present, it was already bought though and couldn't be returned :S Even though I told my mum not to buy it, she did it anyway. I'm sad because she is blinded by her love to me and imho she should've waited a little bit longer. What can I do though?

I'm convinced to make whatever I need to do to make the feeling go away and to make all of you who belive in me proud.

Please, whoever (if any) is out there with "powers" give me the energy, abilities, resources and (specially) will to make it.

Vimperator

This is the name of a firefox extension I've been trying these lasts days. Wanna know what? I don't know how I have survived this long without it! It is AMAZING.

The truth is that it makes firefox work as vim ( VIMperator, you know ;) ). The keys work exactly (or almost) the same as within vim therefore you don't need to use the mouse at all! not even to click on links because it has a special function for that: you click on "f" and then all the link get a number next to it so you only need to type it to follow the link. Anyway, this is not really optimized...what's the best way to do keyboard surfing? You press "f" and as you type the *text* on the link, the numbers options will reduce until an exact match so the link will be followed automatically.

What else...? Well, you can go backward/forward on your history with a simple command, move along tab... well, tons of good stuff!

I'm in love with this extension! I prefered konqueror over firefox for many reasons, but after getting to know this extension... I guess konqueror is "death" for the moment.

PS or SP (english) and moving!

Tomorrow I'm taking my Signal Processing exam :S I'm pretty nervous! I've studied hard, at least a couple of weeks. Don't know if it'll be enough though: wish me luck!

Anyhow... I've got news! I'm moving to a new flat this month! Don't know exactly how I'm gonna do it, because using a scooter to move big stuff is not...mmm... let's say adequate ;)

Any good soul out there that offers to let me his/her car/truck for a day? hehehehe

PS: there's a lot of soccer on TV! Eurocup is on!

Sad

Why? Because I'm *tired*. Today I've realised that. No more happy faces, no more caring about others, no more. And it's not that all these things weren't natural or sincere, it's that I don't want anyone playing nor hurting me anymore.

Only those who have proven to deserve it will get what my company, patience, comprehension and understanding can give.

Yours sincerely,

Damnshock

Good reply

Indeed it was a really good reply my friend, *really* good one. Simple, short and directly pointed to the wound.

Amazing game!!!

I really needed this, I really did. After an awfull exam that I took on the afternoon I needed something to cheer me up. And this game actually did it! Very few games I've watched in my life that are as good as this was: the strengh, the sacrifice, the effort, the hard work, the pain, the extenuation.... god!!! it was AWESOME

It was a bit strange at the begining because I was wearing my Barça shirt
at the "enemy's" house but nobody but a security guard watched/told me anything about it. I even sit next to a Barça supporter too! hehehe I was surely nervous , didn't really know which team to support (it's kind of crazy, isn't it? ;) )

I had a great time yesterday night :D


Anyway, this game brought to my mind some promises I made to a friend and haven't kept: If you are out there reading, keep in mind that you can still call me and come with me to the matches (well, there might be no other games this season but...)

Tonight... Indiana Jones!!!

See you all folks!

The power of words

Don't ever understimate the power of words (or characters) as for sometimes, three simple lines may really harm someone you care of.

Never give things for granted, as many would look totally different from another point of view. Different interpratations may come depending on where you look at things from. Difficult lesson to learn, but I'll try to do it.

I'm sorry

Telecogresca '08

Yesterday it was, yesterday took place the biggest college party in Spain: Telecogresca!

We had some pizza at my place before getting there, it took us a while before we managed to gather the friends altogether because the party is so *big*.

Many laughs, many drinks, music music and more music!

"..."

See you all guys!

Palau de la Música

And finally I got to visit the "Palau de la Música Catalana"!!! Moreover, I did it listening to The Four Seasons by Vivaldi! My favorite Classic piece!

I was amazed, startled, captivated by the music playing in such a beautiful place. And it got even better as I closed my eyes and really *felt* what the piece wanted to tell me: brutality with the storms, fear with the "shots"... tears came to wet my eyes as the act went on.

Words cannot describe precisely what my feelings were.

On the 100th anniversary there's gonna be plenty of good playings, hope I can be there more often.

Bad days

These past days have not been really good ones ( excepting the awesome Calçotada we did on Sunday) but I'm confident enough to change the dynamic.

Maybe seeing Marta has something to do with this "sadness" that's in my mood, but mostly is my completely lack of *money*. I can't even buy a new battery for my motorcycle :( and( to make it worse) there's people who even criticizes you in the matter without really knowing what money problems are (even if they did, giving a speech about what you should have done or not is *NOT* helpfull at all)

I'd like to mention Esteban and Mar and thank them for *being there* whenever they are needed and always ready to listen even when they have problems as well. THANKS guys, love you both.

Well, i don't wanna write anymore... see you all next time!

I can't be with you

Lying in my bed again,
And I cry 'cause you're not here.
Crying in my head again,
And I know that it's not clear.

Put your hands, put your hands,
Inside my face and see that it's just you.
But it's bad and it's mad and it's making me sad,
Because I can't be with you.

Be with you. [X 4]
Be with you, be with you, baby, I can't be with you.

Thinking back on how things were,
And on how we loved so well.
I wanted to be the mother of your child,
And now it's just farewell.

Put your hands in my hands,
And come with me, we'll find another end.
And my head, and my head on anyone's shoulder,
'Cause I can't be with you.

Be with you. [X 4]
Be with you, be with you, baby, I can't be with you.

'Cause you're not here, you're not here,
Baby, I can't be with you.
'Cause you're not here, you're not here,
Baby, still in love with you.

Still in love with you. [X 6]
