Bye Bye FreeBSD


I tryed. Twice. I even installed you as my main and only OS for a week. You didn't fit my needs though :(

Don't get me wrong, FreeBSD is *great* operating system. It is not for me though. I definetely need a much more bleeding edge system that what FreeBSD can be.

There were things that even remembered me to a propietary system with no support for anything but it's own staff. For completely differents reason but, in the end, I couldn't even mount an external ext3 formatted hard disk were I had my backup!!! What the hell?!?! It is ext3!! A completely free, documented filesystem!

So far, I'm back to linux on a fresh Archlinux installation :)

Maybe another time FreeBSD (or for a server...)

Un mateix

Escric en català perquè em ve de gust, perquè és la meva llengua i perquè, crec, és la llengua en qu seria més capaç d'expressar els meus sentiments, neguits, pensaments, reflexions, com volguen descriure-els.

7:33 del matí; els ocells piolen; en sento la melodia que anuncia l'alça d'un nou dia; la melodia de "The game of life" de Scorpions envolta el meu ambient mentre escric aquestese línies. La lectura durant el dia d'avull d'un dels clàssics de la literatura com és ara "Política" (o, més aviat, "Politiké") d'Aristòtil ha pogut ser la causa d'obertura de velles vies de pensams que pretenia oblidadess.

Qui sóc? On pretenc arribar? Quin o quins és/són el meu/s objectiu/s? Jutjo la meva persona segons els mateixos barems o valors per els quals analitzo la societat i realitat en la que participo? La conversa mantinguda aquesta nit amb la Lelícia pot ser un punt d'inflexió en la visió de la meva vida personal. I no és pas per ser una persona molt propera a mi o que llegeixi entre les línees que presento com a persona.

Valor, rectitut, sinceritat, honestedat i pulcritut són valors apreciats en qualsevol àmbit de la nostra societat i, més concretament, molt estimats per mi.

És possible ser estricte amb un mateix? seré capaç de desenvoldre'm en sistemes diferents però a la vegada similars en el futur? El temps resoldrà aquest dubte...

De moment, en qualsevol cas, ens conformarem amb la certesa de què hom ha d'exigir-se sempre més i més per a podoer evolucionar la raça humana.

Sí Marc, has d'esforçar-te més: treballa, treballa i treballa. Concentra't en les coses importants i oblide-te'n de les coses menys importants per el moment.

Endavant!

7:53 am; "love will keep us alive" edulcora aquest clarejar que contemplo a través del meu finestral.

Exigència....

A change of seasons

This is one of my favourite songs by Dream Theater ( sí Ingrid sí, TheatER :P ) on the album by the same name.

Even though the lyrics are *great*, the true, important, meaning story is in the title: imagine life like the seasons cycle, where the bright spring follows the dim winter and ends up in a shinny and warm summer! Of course you'll get back to the sad season, you'll have to get ready though. How are you gonna do that? By *enjoying* and working in the other three seasons!

I'd like to think of these last couple of years as the winter in my life. Now I'm at the doors of spring though. I'll definitely *LIVE* it.

Sleeping

That's what I'm looking forward! I *NEED* to sleep like a stone (like we say here in catalan) for at least 6 hours! I don't ask for much, just six hours...six hours...

Let's get into bed and give it a try, I'll be positive :)

A man needed of sleep time

EF 50mm f/1.8 II



I couldn't help myself. I finally got it.After thinking about buying it for some months I decided it was time for me to make me a self present :)

After reading some reviews and giving it a shot while my friend Pablo lended it to me, I thought to go for it! Here you can see a couple of the first shots with it. Nice, aren't they? I'm pretty proud of them!


Cheers,

Marc

Nice week.


It was amazing having Anna around for a week. It made me realize how much I miss having her here at Barcelona, having fun, talking, playing to the Xbox, bowling... whatever! The thing is that everything is so easy with her, simple and straight. I remember when I practically (if not totally) lived at her place: the phone rings, pick up, "wanna come and watch a movie?", "sure, I'll be there in 15 minutes". And there I was, having dinner and loosing against her at that car game I don't even remember the name ( wait...now I did! Burnout! that was it!).

Well, last day and couldn't be otherway than with a dinner at Anna's place. How many were we? 10? It doesn't matter anyway 'cause we had a nice evenning. We had some pizza and beers! Cool! :)
And of couse, I took pictures!



Miss you Anna!

Loves you,

Marc
