Time flies...

It’s been such a long time since I last wrote!! So many things have passed in the meantime.

In less than 2 years, I’ll be finishing high school and who knows where I’ll be heading to, what I'll be studying... (I do have a vague idea of what I'm going to do, I'm not so lost haha) 

According to my dad, these years will define the person you’ll become. So he keeps on telling me to study and prepare myself so I can go college abroad.

I guess that’s right so I try to follow his advice.

I’ve started studying for the SAT’s and I just need to focus, a lot!! I’ve also a lot of school activities to do, robotic, football, french and so. So I think maybe this year will be kind of tough but I’m sure that if I organize all my activities and time and most importantly I don't waste my time doing nothing, I might be able to achieve my goals. 

These months I have seen that time flies and I need to start working fast! 

Sometimes as you grow up, you need to realize that priorities change, the amount of responsibilities grow and well you, you only need to keep up with them.

Each decision you make forms part of what you’re becoming and each step you take defines you.

Growing up implies a lot more tan just having more freedom and responsabilities, but the ability and maturity to deal with them.

Sometimes I’m scared of what’s about to happen, of the future but I guess I should just do my best and hope everything works out. 

CERBOTICS. Imagine and Build.

This time I’ll tell you about our school’s robotics club.

Everything strated before xmas holidays when many students were invited to participate in a robotics project (first robotics competition) organized by FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology).

The FRC is an international competition and this is the first time we’re participating. Peñoles is sponsoring the whole Project for our team and for other 3 teams from the region.

We really started working after the kick off, on january 7th. Our goal was to create a robot that could play basketball; throw the balls and defend the area.

The first thing we did was to divide ourselves in different areas; mechanic, electronic, informatic and comunication. I’m in comunication.

Each area got together and started planning everything they had to do. Our first job was to create a name, a logo and a slogan for our team.

After going through different options and propositions we decided that we would be called Cerbotics; Cervantes + Robotics.

Each one of us was assigned a especific work; I’m in charge of the media and press diffusion, so I talked for the radio, tv and press.

We also had a “cascarita” (a game) in which the 4 teams of the region presented their project and made a demostration of their robot.

For 6 weeks of intense hard work, the bag and tag day had come. We had to close the robot and pack it before the 24 on midnight. That last day was full of surprises. Our robot had some technical issues so suddenly it stopped answering commands and working. Everyone of us was getting so worried and nervous because if the robot didn’t work there was no chance of going to regionals and competing. The tension level was high at the critical moment. The fact that it was already 10 o’clock when this happened made us feel so scared and worried.We had so few time left, the electrics, mechanics and informatics got to work and check what was going wrong.

After they knew what was happening, quickly they started working and got the robot fixed. The good thing was that the problem could be solved and we managed to pack everything before 12:00.

When we finished we were so happy and excited because it is a product of hard work, dedication and effort.

Now we move on to the next step of preparation for the regionals in April at Houston. The first half of our job is done, now we have to go on and do what it needs to do our best performance in the regionals.

Check it out!

Real Steel

Yesterday I went to the movies and saw a film called Real Steel.

The story takes place in the 2020, at that time human boxing is extinct.

It actually starts when a man called Charlie (Hugh Jackman) who used to be a boxer is told that his exgirlfriend has died and their son, Max will be under his control. Charlie hates the idea of it as the only things that matter to him are robots and money. He makes a deal with the husband of his son’s aunt to exchange the boy for money. They decided that the boy will just spend the summer with him and the rest of his life with his aunt.

Charlie wants Max to stay with Bailey, who after her father’s death owns the gym where he grew up, but Max insists in being with his dad.

Charlie had bought a once famous robot called Noisy Boy and in a fight it gets totally damaged, so he and Max go to a place where they could find robot parts to be able to build a new one.

There by chance Max finds a complete Generation 2 bot named Atom buried. He brings it back and in the gym Bailey lets them that it’s in good conditions. It is programmed to support a lot of They find out that it has a shadowing mode.

Max programs voice control for Atom. He teaches it to dance while Charlie teaches it box. Max was determined to make Atom a good fighting robot.

No one believes that Atom can win a fight but amazingly he does. Through words Atom becomes famous in the small leagues. It was innovative to see a small boy and a bot dancing and winning.

After some time they invite Charlie, Max and Atom for a fight against two cities in a preliminar fight of the world robot boxing league (mayor league).

Before the match, they are called to the Lamckova suite. There Farra, the owner of Zeus the most powerful robot on earth at that time, tells them her interest in buying Atom. Charlie wants to accept because of the amout of money they would receive but Max refuses.

The fight seemed to be to easy for Two Cities at first but then Charlie saw the weak point of his opponent and Atom seemed to work it out pretty well.

At the end of the fight Max challenges Farra for a fight against Zeus.

Summer was over and Charlie took Max back to his aunt’s house. Even though they had grown close Charlie decided that it was the best option for Max’s future.

He came to realize that he wanted to be part of his son’s life from that time on, so he went to apologize to him and tell him that their challenge had been accepted.

When the day had finally come, everyone was nervous, Zeus hadn’t ever been defeated. At the start everything seemed to go bad for Atom. It was being hurt awfully but it hanged on till the last round. The voice mode wasn’t working so they were practically lost. Max asked Charlie to box for Atom using the shadow mode. It was hard for Charlie to accept but he agreed.

Everything was going wonderful they almost won Zeus, the bell saved it. It was time then for the judges to decide the winner. Zeus “won” but the people had seen that extraordinary event and called Atom “the people’s champion”.

It’s a good movie. I really liked it and you should see it! I think it’s worth it.

Never give up, everything’s possible.. that’s clear!

time goes by...india 2011

This year on summer vacations we went to India .

We first went to Chennai with Janani akka, Varshini, Mishal, Shanti athai, Ganapathy mama, Shankar chitappa and Mini chiti.

After staying there for a couple of weeks, we went to Coimbatore to see Lalitha achi, Samy thatha, Aparna, Devi athai, Soori mama and Mani mama. We also saw perrito (Lalitha achi and Samy thatha's dog)! He's really big and cute.

Since we arrived at Chennai and in Coimbatore Balu thatha and Gomathi achi stayed with us.

We also saw many ammappa’s friend in both cities.

We went out to malls, temples, to have an ice cream, to go out for dinner, to see Harry Potter and many more things.

Before coming back Mani mama took both achi’s, amma and myself to Ooty (a hill town). I loved it! It is really cool: the climate, the scenaries, everything!

It was really nice to spend time with all of them after such a long time. I had such a wonderful time and even wish we could have stayed a bit longer!

I think India is changing, I saw a lot of difference between last time we came (2 years ago) and this time. It has become really Cosmopolitan and modern. But there is still the essence of Indian culture and I do think it’ll always remain there.

Something quite interesting is that I noticed a lot of difference between people from North India to the ones from the South (talking generally). The southern people are more conservative and in a way a more closed society, meanwhile in the north they’re more open, a more liberal society.

Sometimes, I wonder what will happen if I return there. What will I have to do, what will happen to my ways of life, even maybe my ideas will have to change, and in a certain point of view it’ll be really hard I guess. I hope and know that when that time comes, my family will be able to help me through it.

Maybe I have an mexican way of thinking, maybe not, maybe it’s a mix of both cultures. It’s the way I grew up not here nor there. Lets see what happens next….

Champions League! BARCA CAMPEON!

Hi eveyonee!

Yesterday took place the Champions League Final in Wembley 2011. I was really anxious about this match because I knew it would be a great match, with the best teams in the world. Both, Barcelona and Manchester United went for their 3^rd title.

Manchester United started playing well and controlling their opponent but after some minutes Barcelona began to play way far better than ManU.

After 27 minutes, the first goal was scored by Pedro with a pass from Xavi. The culés couldn’t celebrate for long as 6 minutes later Rooney gave the tie for the red devils.

But in the second half, Messi and David Villa gave the triumph for the Barcelona team. Now the team coached by Sir Alex Ferguson couldn´t even make a clear shot at the goal posts.

The man of the match was Lionel Messi, I do agree that he’s the best player in the world!

Here in Mexico, a lot of people supported Manchester United just because Chicharito is playing there while others supported Barcelona of Pep Guardiola. Many were comparing him to Messi, I think that even though he's a very good player we can't compare him to Messi who is a genius in football.

I support Manchester United not only because of Chicharito but because I like their way of playing, but even then I do accept that Barcelona is a fantastic team!

The Champions League is an annual tournament organized by the UEFA for the top football clubs in Europe; it was inaugurated in 1955 by the proposition of a French journalist who conceived the idea after seeing the Campeonato Sudamericano de Campeones in 1948.

Since then, the Real Madrid is the team with the highest number of titles (7).

Let's see who wins next year! Hope its ManU or Real Madrid! jiji :D

Feliz Dia de las Madres

Most of all the beautiful things in life come in twos and threes, by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers and sisters, aunts and cousins, but only one mother in the whole world.

Happy Mothers Day!

127 hours

Que ondaa todos!

Just a couple of hours ago I saw a movie called 127 hours. I really liked because it had something that keeps you in it. It’s really interesting.

It’s directed by Danny Boyle (the one that directed Slumdog Millionaire) and its music director is A.R. Rahman. A quite interesting thing is that it's based on a real story so well you do end really impressed with the facts.

The plot is that Aron Ralston (James Franco) an engineer, mountain hiking lover gets trapped in the Blue John Canyon when he was trying to jump into a passage and when he does it a huge rock falls over his hand and he gets stuck there. He now had to find out a way to get help or to get his arm loose.

The problem was that until monday no one would now he was stuck there because he hadn’t told them where he was going just that he would be out for the weekend.

For five days he was stuck there. From saturday to wednesday.

He started thinking what to do, how to return back. As he had finished his water he started to drink his own pee just for the sake of not dehydrating.

He had also started imagining stuff. He tried to figure out the way to get out from there but he couldn’t even move out from there. At last after 127 hours, he just got out because he cut his arm with a cheap swiss kind knife.

As the time passed, he started to remember few important moments of his life. He started to appreciate his parents, his sister, his ex-girlfriend and a few of his friends. He realized how selfish and egoist he was.

At last when he was walking in the canyon he was a family and shouted for help. The movie ends when a helicopter comes and takes him.

This movie is really really good. You should really see it.

Guerra de Comida

¡Hola todos!

Last week on thursday we had a get together at school for St. Patrick’s Day. Each classroom had their own. In my class we just brought food (chips, cake and cokes), we didn’t even bring music so everyone was super bored. Then someone started throwing ice cubes and after sometime I just heard “¡Guerra de comida!” (food war) and everyone in our class started throwing chips, coke, lemons, and cake.

Like an hour later the principal came and scolded us. We had to clean up all the mess in just an hour before 2 o’clock with is the time when school finishes. I don’t know how but between all of us we cleaned it really fast, I think we did a good team work. Some cleaned the floors while others cleaned the tables and chairs and others went for the stuff that was missing so that we could clean the classroom completely. At the end the classroom smelled really strange. Before leaving, the principal told us that we had a week without recess and that we had to plant a tree. We were all surprised that the punishment was so hard on us.

The next day, we went to the movies from school. Here also someone started throwing popcorn and everyone ended up doing the same. Miss Rose got really angry and made us clean up the mess. When we reached school, they told us that our punishment was that each one of our class was to clean a classroom (sweep and mop it) for a week.

So now, we are all cleaning the classrooms after school!

I think it was like fun at the time but then when you think about it you say omg there’re so many people without food and we’re wasting it! I do think it was wrong and now we have to pay for our mistakes.

Bonne Apetite

Hey guys!

This time I'm posting some photos of different dishes I've prepared. Last summer holidays l started cooking and since then I've liked to cook from my own recipes. I prepare pastas, pies, and a lot of desserts. I've been told that they taste great jiji

Hope you at least like the look of some of the dishes and someday get to taste them.

Fin de año en Calgary

Hey guys!

After such a long time I’ve got myself sitting here and writing a new post.

This time I’ll tell you about my experience in Calgary, Canada. We went and stayed with Siva mama, Manju aunty and Nanda’s house. I loved it because I’ve always wanted to see snow and well this was it.

We arrived there the 29^th of December. The temperature was really cold, around -6°. Siva mama told us we had a great timing because just a day or 2 before there had been a snowfall, so when we reached town it was all white and snowy.

The next day we went to a small town nearby called Drumheller. First we saw world’s largest standing dinosaur. It’s really cool because you can go up to the dinosaur’s mouth and from there you get a wonderful view of the surrounding. The only thing that I didn’t like was that the air up there was freezing. From there we went to the Royal Tyrrell Museum. I learned a lot from the museum, first of all that we can find a lot of fossils in this region of Alberta. One thing that caught my attention was that the structure of the Royal Tyrrell Museum is very similar to the Museo del Desierto here in Saltillo.

The way to Drumheller and back is really great because the prairies are covered with snow, so sometimes all you could see was just white and white everywhere!

The 31^st, on New Year’s Eve, we went with some of Siva mama’s and Manju aunty’s indian friends (Dr. Marcus and his family and Mr. Saravana murthy and his family) to celebrate the New Year. We came back early according to Mexican timings (at 1:30) haha but we stayed up until 4 am just talking and talking and talking.

The next day Dr. Marcus and his family and another friend of Siva mama’s and appa’s called Bala and his family came to eat at Siva mama’s house. We ate indian dishes, byriani, parotha, vadai and other vegetable side dishes.

One day, we went to the University of Calgary. I really liked it, it’s so well organized. I think the idea of connecting all the building with tunnels is great, because then you wouldn’t need to go out in the cold to get something or go to the other building. We also saw the Olympic Oval. It’s really amazing how people coordinate while skating. I hope someday I will go I study there (:

A day before returning to Torreón, we went to Lake Louise and to a small town called Banff. I loved this day because it snowed and everything looked like from a movie. The snowfall started when we were on our way to the lake and when we reached Banff it had stopped. I totally loved the lake because apart from the fact that it was snowing, the lake was frozen! I had never seen anything like that so I loved it. They also had like a castle made from ice cubes over the lake so everything looked sooooooooo nice. It was really cool.

After taking a great deal of photos there, we went to Banff. There we first visited a big hotel which looked like a very tall castle. The sceneries were great as the small town is very close to the Canadian Rockies. We also visited a frozen falls. I liked the view of the mountains from there, more than the falls itself.

Well, finally I just have to say that I really loved Calgary. The city is really nice and I liked this trip very much.

DEBATE: Legalization of the Marijuana

What’s up!

This time I’m writing about a theme we recently discussed at school. Last week our Spanish teacher told us to choose a theme for our class debate. We chose the legalization of the marijuana in Mexico.

I think that’s really an interesting subject to debate about because its effects could be either good or bad.

Personally, I think they should legalize it because in that way we could eliminate the drug dealing problem and to avoid addictions problems we could educate the young generations and all the people living about the drug and about its effects in an inadequate way. Like this we can have a controlled use of the marijuana.

Our argument for supporting it was that we could overcome sooo many problems, deaths, kidnaps etc. and it even does less harm than the alcoholic beverages and the cigarettes.

Well, in the debate some of my classmates who were against the legalization said that the main reason it shouldn’t be legalized was because the society wasn’t ready yet for such a drastic change. But I think that it can be used correctly if people have conscience about the marijuana’s bad effects.

Well we finally came to the conclusion that maybe it should be legalized but first the government and each family should teach the people to differentiate the good from the bad and about all the consequences of each action you make.

Bicentenario 2010

Holaa todos!

2010 is a special year for Mexico. 200 years ago the Independence movement started in Dolores, Hidalgo by a priest called Miguel Hidalgo and a group of criollos (children of Spanish but born in Mexico). Another important thing this year is that it has been a century since the Mexican revolution.

Even before this year started, the government started making a lot of publicity for many events in commemoration of this historic year. There were many cultural and social events in many important places in the country. The main event is the grito on the 15^th night. The most important grito will be given by the president in Mexico City.

This year apart from the all the events; we had the longest Puente (it’s when we don’t go to school for several days because an important event’s date fell on a week day) ever; we just went to school Monday and Tuesday.

At school, we had a kermes for the Independence Day. The seniors of junior high school and high school were in charge of everything. In each classroom there were 5 teams and each team was to sell something typically Mexican. My team sold duros preparados, cake and we had the civil registration. We had a laugh with this because we made soooo many funny things to get all our things sold. Some of my friends sold; ice-pop sticks, quesadillas (it’s like chapatti with melted cheese), fruit juice and so.

Later the next day, appamma and I went to Valeria’s house for the grito. There we met Vero’s, Diana’s and the twins Maya and Kenya’s family. The parents stayed in the house talking while we went to the plazita to play and talk. We had a lot of fun!

summer's gone! getting back to basics

What's up!!! Summer time is over, now it time to get back to routine life!

Today was my first day as a senior, as I'm already in last year of junior high school!

When I reached school, the first thing I saw was a whole big bunch of first year students trying to see in which section they were.

I was really happy to return to school as I hadn't seen most of my friends in 2 months. We all were like omg! what did u do in these vacation? did u went in a holiday? did u have fun? I missed u soooo much! and stuff like that LOL

We have now 2 new students in our class, I hope they get used to our way of being in a short time and get united with our class.

We started our first 2 hours with miss Cecy explaining us the methods that were to be used this year and then just making some dynamics to get to know each other. Later we were presented to a new teacher called Norma who will be our chemistry and oyt (orientacion y tutoria) teacher through out the year. We also saw miss Rose our history teacher, as well as miss Alejandra our F.C.y E. (formacion civica y etica) teacher, miss Artemisa our spanish teacher whom we know since our first year and our new maths teacher prof. Rodolfo who we all hoped to be prof. Bustos magically! In the office I saw miss Pilar our always kind and friendly coordinator.

Finally, it was a great day! To see soooooooo many new faces and old ones of course! at school is always a nice thing!

The only sad thing is that we weren't able to see many friends who for a variety of reasons weren't able to be at our school this year :( but wherever they are I wish them all the luck! :D

Well, just hope this year will be even greater that last years!

Cuando un amigo se va...

It’s really sad when you have to goodbye to someone you really love…

Today at 5:00am was the last time I saw Jibran, Karina, Montse and their parents.

I first met Jibran, Montse and their parents in fifth grade when he was in my science fair team and I still remember I owe him a movie I promised him 3 years ago! He was just my friend in the past few years but in the last 3 to 4 months he became one of my best friends.

Karina, well I remember not knowing her until I got into the football team, from the first time I knew she was a very happy and fun person but I got to know I wasn’t mistaken in the last year when we all got together very often.

Now, there aren’t words to show what I feel at this moment, they are great people and they’ll always be. I’m really glad I got the chance to know them and of course I’ll always remember them no matter what! We all will never forget all the things we did and spent together.

I hope to see them again in the future someday…. As they say distance is no obstacle for true friendship.

Hope you like the song. It talks about the feelings you have when a friend goes away…

ESPAAÑA CAMPEOON!!

Bonjour!!!!
Well, Spain is the new world champion, now in South Africa 2010. I’m really happy as since the world cup started I have supported this team and of course Mexico.
Spain started its performance in this tournament with a defeat against Switzerland but later it recovered it level and won against Honduras and Chile in group stage. It passed to the knockout stage as first place of the group H. Spain passed over Portugal in the round of 16 with a goal of David Villa in the second half. With the same result Spain against Paraguay in the quarter-finals, they passed to the semifinals. This match seemed a bit complicated as it was against Germany who had been showing a really impressive way of playing and was one of the favorites to win the cup this year. When the time came, Spain showed it huge potential winning the match with Puyol’s header, breaking of the forecasts.
Well, today in the world cup final against Netherlands; both Spain and Netherlands didn’t reach their great football level, but I think they gave their 100% in the ground even with all the faults made. In my point of view the first 90 minutes were a bit boring comparing the 2 extra times. There was a stage in the match were I thought that the champion was going to be defined in penalties but hopefully for me Andres Iniesta scored the goal of the victory in the 2nd extra time.
This is the first time the actual European champions win the FIFA World Cup. Actually, none of the 2 finalists of South Africa had been world champions before. Netherlands is now a three time sub champion. Netherlands lost with dignity.
Finally, I’m really really happy for Spain and for winning my bet haha(:

south africa 2010

Bonjour a tous!

The first game of each country in the world has finished. It has been a round with many surprises; as the very good strategy of North Corea against Brasil, Spain’s defeat against Switzerland, and the golazos (it’s how we call very good goals here in Mexico) of Brasil.

This worldcup’s inauguration was really colorful and in a very african style. It’s the first time, this magnificient event takes place in an african country, so this world doesn’t just represent southafrica but the whole african continent. I think it’s a memmorable world cup.

The opening match was against Mexico , so all of us here really got into the match. I think Mexico could have played so much better but well we can’t do anything about it now. The other day when I saw a group in facebook called ; I really started laughing about how people have crazy ideas.

My favorite to win this world cup is Spain, but seeing yesterday’s performance I really think they should start playing as in the Euro. Other teams are Brasil and Argentina; the all time favorites and Germany is playing really well too.

Now that the second round of matches has started, Uruguay played really good in their 3-0 victory over the host Southafrica, Argentina won 4-1 against South Korea and Greece won 2-1 against Nigeria. In a few hours we will know Mexico’s future in the world cup as it’s going to play against France. We are all wainting for this important match.

Finally, I just hope this world cup we had been waiting for 4 years, will overcome all expectatives.

Each day is a new adventure(:
