Still ALIVE!

Hello everyone.

Yes, it's me. I'm not dead but I've been without internet access for the last few weeks, and without it there's really not much chance of writing here or chatting with all of you by msn, aim, skype, ect. :p

So where am I right now? The CITY OF WINDS or, as the rest of the world knows it, Chicago. To be more precise, I'm not in Downtown Chicago, I am in Aurora, which is a small satellite city of the big metropolis that Chicago is. The whole area is called "Chicagoland" creatively enough.

It is nice out here. It is a big contrast with the usual city life, the suburbs are so wide and expansive its amazing to see an actual building like the ones we city-folk are so used to. Skyscrapers? Nah. There are admittedly places like Oakbrook, that are like a small sanctuary of buildings and offices... but let's face it, that's it.

Life here is very different from the UK or Mexico, and thankfully I have managed to make good frienships and managed to survive this long ;)

Right now I'm working at a place called VMI. It has amazing teamwork ethics, but sadly cars are a necessity. I've managed to survive so far, but it might be time for a change of scene... or not. We'll see how it works out.

Writing came back a week or so ago, and with that a re-affirmation of my true calling in life. I've been looking at some contests and I think I have the story to send :) I'll let your guys know, so keep checking here from time to time to find news about that. Again, I'll have to re-schedule my blogging. So I'll simply write everything from now on and put long posts online when I get the chance.

Now let's see... the place where I live.

It's a house. I'm renting a room from a couple of friends. They are married, their names are Candece and George and they have two little girls, Angelina and Isabella. I don't know if I've mentioned them before (I haven't re-read my blog as I write this) Anyway, they are nice girls when they are not around. I'm not going to say which, but one of them, despite her name, is as far away from heaven as hell is.

Anyway, I'll write more later on... I've got a library card now, and hopefully I can get a ride there at least once a week. :)

later!

Nya!
