Ruben's adventures: January 2007

At the cafeteria...

... I don't do this, but it's a quite ispiring place.

Sometimes I wrote there, over small papers, things about the world, thoughts that somehow I share with Dylan, what in my opinion is wrong around me...

But later, I never copy those papers on my blog. I prefer just to write here a couple of stupid things with my bad English and keep looking stupid.

Como hacer un DVD de fotos con menu.

En http://www.hachemuda.com/29/09/2006/crear-un-video-con-tus-fotos/ he
encontrado unos apuntes sencillos para crear un DVD de fotos con menu y todo.

Lo dejo aqui para cuando tenga tiempo de hacerme uno :o)

Msn friends...

These are some people that I use to see around my msn.

They all have the same characteristic, they use use their faces (or something
like that) as 'Icon' picture.

The others... not here.

By the way, I am there too.

Coffee friend.

Last Friday, during my afternoon coffee I found a new friend... :o)

I love that coffee moments during the afternoons... The the sun come in
through the window, listening some music, with a extra hot and extra of sugar
coffee and all the newspapers that I can find on my way...

Reading them I also study Portuguese (taking notes of new words, copying
sentences, etc.) and get informed about the world, country and university (3
newspapers).

Before leave from Santander I heard somewhere this Chinese proverb. "La joya
mas valiosa no vale tanto como el pleno disfrute de un instante", and I
agree. (Something like) --The most expensive jewel doesn't worth as much as
the intense enjoy of a moment--

Ruta Cicloturista Guimaraes-Fafe.

This is the second time I do this route, so now I have enough good pictures to
make this video.

I love this route. You cycle around 30 Km between nature, towns, hills,
forests,... The nature's smell goes deep inside you, the silence let you
heard the forest and the life on the mountains...

And in the end, Fafe (a small town), there is a Plus supermarket that bring me
a lot of memories about Hungary and Belgium. It's strange, but there are some
supermarkets that when I enter on them, I feel transported to the past, to
another country where I lived before... Like a star-gate :o)

Natal 2006-07

This Christmas I went back home.

Well, It doesn't seem anything special, but it is, because it's the first time
I do it.

On 23-December I went to Porto to take a flight to Madrid. There I spent one
day and then I went together with my brother to Santander, to meet my mother.

The weather was so good that I could go to the beach many days and
play 'palas' with my friend Michel. Also meetings with friends and a party at
home.

Then, come back to Madrid and fly to Oporto. Arrive at Guimaraes on
31-December and party for new year's eve in Braga with my friends of Cabo
Verde and some Portuguese people.
