... exactly, swedish :P

even if we can surprise ourselves, or circumstances might change, or even consequences... it's not the first time we've been there, in some way or another:
disculpe, su vida le espera...: we keep tripping over the same stone

two perfect nights
***saturday 18/10, madrid***
- hey rita, i'll be having dinner here, and it's close enough, so maybe you can come by later with marta, we have some drinks here and then we go
- by car?
- i think so!
- nice...
- go to this subway stop, and we'll make light signs from the window :P
[...]
- so you are coming by car... ok, after this village you take this road, and then this dirt track... you'll pass by some fields, a big sewage system plant, and also many people walking in the same direction, is kind of a long way, 5 or 6 km... you'll recognise when you have arrived, you'll either see the ruins or quite many cars...
[...]
and there we were left, the 3 of us, at the beginning of a row of parked cars, people... and we walked up another path, jumped through the hole in the wall, went around another wall, and there we were in the yard of an abandoned monastery. few lights (most coming from the energy control stand), big speakers, music just starting...
we tried to go on a walk around the monastery, but with the rainy weather we couldn't see much, and instead i came back with mud all over my sneakers and trousers (and more that we got along the night!).
so back to the first place, while they were also preparing the second area, in the old chapel, with different music and so.
we also met there friends of mine (alberto, the "pharmacist"...), friends of rita (miguel, pavi, dani...)...
and mainly that was the night! up to the yard, down to the chapel, out to the forest, out in the other direction to the cars, back again... funny people doing strange things sometimes, and a very nice surprise that came to join us around 5 (and brought -more- water and -more- warm clothes!) :D and a different dimension...
i was more than 4 hours being completely unable to stop talking, ahah. i tried to avoid it first, but then i saw i couldnt, so i just tried to change the listener from time to time, so that no one got bored... and so happy! such nice views! (oh, that sky... :P) the best moment of the night, when the clouds opened a bit just where the moon was... amazing, i couldn't stop looking =)
- remember those cartoons where they mix with some real images... doesn't it really look like that? can't you see the real image and the cartoon part? :P
[...]
with the daylight we finally went to explore the rest of the monastery. really worth seeing! (it even has a bottomless pit... :O) and by that time you could find a lot of other people walking around there too...
and that was it! 10.00 time to go, for me at least, even if some friends stayed till 12.30, 15.00...
long night full of -happy- stories...
***tuesday 21/10, barcelona***
"erasmus party at shôko, say you are in nice barcelona list and you get free entrance, free drink before 00.45, and special prices all night"
and after a horrible day with everything going wrong, the planets started to aligne...
i was with the best people (even gloria that was visiting that day!), in one of the most exclusive clubs in barcelona, entering just in time (at 00.44!) to get the free drink. and it was exactly like being back in stockholm!
same type of club, with one of those cool terraces like in stureplan, but instead of the street there was the beach! so even better. same type of people, of clothes, that "sweden's short concept", so many foreign people... and same type of music, those hits we heard every day in stockholm! i sometimes even looked around to look for some sundby people...
nostalgic, yes, but happy to relive that for one day, it was exactly what i needed...

DEPORTES EXTREMOS ?
En Zimbabwe, Africa, se encuentran las magníficas cataratas Victoria a una altura de 128m. El lugar es conocido como 'La Piscina del Demonio'.
Durante los meses de Septiembre y Diciembre, la gente puede nadar lo más cerca posible del final de la catarata sin caerse!!!!
Estas cataratas son cada vez más conocidas en la industria del 'turismo radical' ya que cada vez más y más gente anda buscando experiencias límite.
Te atreverías???

the chemical brothers
sorry for not posting lately, but i've had absolutely no time... :(
i promise to update soon, i expect (hope!) to have a bit of time for myself next week.
but right now i was just remembering good times from this summer, listening to the chemical brothers' new album... i saw them live this summer at sudoeste festival, and if you haven't seen them it's definitely a must. the music, the images, the effects... you're taken completely to an unreal world. or to your own bubble, as you want to take it! and this album it's like being back there...
i was looking for some video, but i can't find any that really shows what it was so... ill leave this song, that was my happiest moment in my bubble :P and it was followed by "believe", that was the most impressive one, on effects i mean, so for me the best part of the concert! though it was perfect from beggining to end.
well... except for one thing :(

today must be architecture student's day... good news and surprises for 2 of my friends :)
one can finally go for his final project, and the other got accepted in the ETSAM (though i'm not sure if that's really good news... ahah, joking)
so congratulations to both of you!!!
and the rest of my architecture friends there we go, some of them already with the final project, others a bit slower but doing fine... and little by little we're making it, we can actually see the end, impossible as it seemed!
uff... scary...

llegara...?
When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse.
And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
"Just what your worth"
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
Tears stream, down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face and I...
Tears stream, down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face and I...
Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you.
(coldplay - fix you)

pst... pst...
it is possible to whisper and be heard 600 km away...
Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"
Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me...
Stars shining bright above you
Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"
Birds singin’ in the sycamore trees
Dream a little dream of me
Say nighty-night and kiss me
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
While I’m alone and blue as can be
Dream a little dream of me
Stars fading but I linger on dear
Still craving your kiss
I’m longin’ to linger till dawn dear
Just saying this
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
But in your dreams whatever they be
Dream a little dream of me...

meeting in barcelona!
i know i have to write things since almost 2 months ago, but last month in stockholm i was always busy, and first month here even more... and this one starting, just crazy!
but now i just want to talk about this weekend...
i started the month, day 1, getting a night bus to barcelona. i arrived at 7, and got a train to segur de calafell, where gerard has a summer house just in front of the beach :D
so i arrived quite early, we helped with some things for the lunch and went (igor, gerard and me) to the beach for a couple of hours. we went up again just before maite, diego and lukas arrived, and then laia a bit later. and we had luch all together, that gerard's parents prepared an amazing paella, and home made icecream, and sangria... we ate so much and so well! and so nice all together again...
and then all to the beach!
but not too long because we had to go to vilafranca (laia's town), to see her doing castells! we were lucky that they did it precisely that day, it was incredible to see it there. nothing to do with seeing pictures or a video, i was really impressed...
after that a beer in one place, dinner in another, and then we went to sitges for a walk, a beautiful town quite close, and then to vilanova, another village nearby.
*fotos* (i will put them when i get them!)
btw, i stayed these days in laia's place. so the next day we woke up later than the boys, as usual :P and we catched them already in barcelona. we were sightseeing all day, a really intensive tour!
*fotos*
we were really exhausted at the end of the day, so we decided to go home. but when laia and me arrived to vilafranca we changed our mind and went to have dinner to a very nice place, just the two of us =)
and on monday she had to work, so the guys came to pick me in the morning, and we went to montserrat. and we tried coca! :P
then we went to llinars del valles, to visit andrea, that is working there in a summer camp now. we could only be one hour, but i was so happy to see her at least a bit! :D
we had lunch in granollers, and back to barcelona, to visit the forum and to the centre.
*fotos*
and at 9 we met everyone (all the ones we were on saturday and also belen and david this time!) to have dinner. nice place, nice people, nice dinner :D
and another night bus back to madrid... i just arrived this morning!
short, but intense! it has been so nice to meet again and be together... i really felt exactly the same as in stockholm :)
thank you family...
ps: tonight another night bus... to portugal!
