No More Drunk Emailing on Friday Nights

Tonight I find this interesting news "Gmail Goggles: No More Drunk Emailing on Friday Nights". Who had never send and SMS or have make a call to that girl you are in "love"...when you are drunk. Normally when someone is drunk is when starts thinking too much and feeling brave...and all the inspiration comes...and you need too share your feelings with that special person…but of course is not the best moment! You are not able to speak properly and you are fighting to don’t fall…so how are you going to be able to make a romantic phrase with any sense with you mobile phone or computer?? Sometimes I've sent messages I shouldn't sent…but I am sure that we are many people who did something like that ever.

So GOOGLE has an interesting feature to prevent you from sending mails that may you may regret later. It does so by asking you to confirm whether you really want to send that email.
So if you’re writing a mail late on a Friday night, when you may not be as sober as you would like yourself to be, you can get GMail to ask you a few math problems before the message leave your Gmail outbox.

And what better way to check than by making you solve a few simple math problems after you click send to verify you're in the right state of mind?

Paris je t'aime

Paris amazing city, I enjoy a lot the trip to Paris. Walking arround the city, visiting museums like the Louvre and Orsay, eating creps, was fantastic. By now Paris is the best city I visited in Europe....each city is different and is faire to compare but Paris although is expensive and french people are a little bit "cocky" (of course not all of them) I like it a lot.

I laugh a lot with Johana, Alex, Suelyn and Luis we spend a nice weekend.

pd: Joana I was checking on internet...and is true!!!! the Eiffel Tower grows during the summer...."Ohhh the Eiffel tower is not like a cake!?" LOL "During summer, on a hot day the iron expands so much that the Tower can rise by 17cm."

BEST party

BEST party, it was not the best party here in Eindhoven , but the "party take place in the BEST (Board of European Students of Technology ) place, it was great....3€ with 5 drinks (beer or sangria). Nice music, nice people, and the pleace was great.

The problem was going back home, not because I was tu drunk...a little bit, but the problem was the snow! last night it started to snow....but in a crazy way. I was with my bike....and I arrived home completly white! it was amazing! Tonight I dreamed that with some erasmus people we ehre doing a snow man....xD

This morning I get up, and all my garden was white....nice view....I decided to take my bike and see Eindhoven after a snowy storm, really beautiful, maybe the "city hall" must think on putting some snow canons to keep the city like this! Is extrange but rideing arround with this cold...take away my hangover...

Den Haag

Welcome International Students in den Haag! it was a sunny day, we went with Jesica, Juan Pedro and Wai to den Haag to the "Day of the international exchange student". I expected more of the event...but it was nice, we had the opportunity to visit the city, listen to the dutch education minister and also to laugh a lot with a great english comedian that made a monologue of "The Dutch culture", really funny. In the event I meet Elisenda a girl who was doing a dutch course with me in Barcelona, it was nice to see her, and meet someone known.

The activities were a little bit borring, but lucky I had with me my craziyMalasian friend Wai, that always does something funny is crazy guy..always thinking on girls! xD I love his dancing style, that guy knows how to move!

Another extrange thing was...it soppose to be a welcome event to international students to the Netherlands...why the food of the event was "extrange food that come from....Mars", I've never eaten before such extrange lassagnes and stew...why they don't serve typical dutch food...I know is not the most "tasty" food you can eat, but I don't know gastronmy is also culture! (in that issue the Dutch are ignorants...)

Reflection

Now is time to make decisions, one exam….more than 200 slides to study, more than 4000 words to remember in 2 days? That’s possible? Of course is it….but I’m not going to do it…and even try it. I’m lazy? Maybe, but that’s and Erasmus I don’t want to feel stressed…and if things will go in the same way …in two months I’ll have and anxiety attack…I come here to study of course, but also to have fun and chill out.

So is the moment to take a decision, something must change, work load VS free time…must be equal, is a simple equation.

Maybe I write this words because I’ve got a strong hangover…and I just want to sleep, but sometimes after been “drunk”...is when your ideas become clear, and things are more simple….so Hakuna Matata, life is short enjoy the moment! And erasmus is only done once in a lifetime, so no worries!

Halloween Party

Last friday was Halloween...but in Catalunya we celebrate "La Castanyada" people eats chestnut, sweet potato, eats some kind of small cakes "panallets" and drinks Moscatell (liquor).
Here it was different...we celebrate Halloween, it was really great! party in Sandra's and Jullie's house, lots of people and lots of fun. Evertybody dress up...me too I'll put some photos. The best Jesus, it was a kind of "girl" that looks like "Scarleth Johansson" in Lost in Translation with a pink wig....the bitch version xD. Goroño another crazy "catalan" boy...was dress up like a Scotish guy, with the typical skirt (kilt)...he finish the party being like Britney Spears, this guy is a show....sawing him wearing the skirt and rideing the bike to the Bunker....is something that I'm sorry but I can't forget.

Party in the Bunker....with the visit of the Firefighters, is amazing here someone or a group of people smokes in some place...and the alarms rings...and the Firefighters go....that's efficiency and professionalism. The party in the bunker was nice..the problem was the smell...horrible...I can't understand WHYYYYYYY they put fitted carpet in the floor in discos....is really extrange....I think the solution is noseplug to avoid the food smell.

To sump up: my first halloween party, it was really great...but next time is necesary to go to houses to ask fort sweets xD.

Kind reagards,
