And the coolest song I'm addicted to

"Big Yamo vs Calle 13 - Tocarte toa (remix)"

(In my opinion, the original version is not as cool.)

The new cool thing

Fuck Planking, here's Swopping.

Now, let's catch up on cartoons (III)

This should be enough for a while.

Now, let's catch up on cartoons (II)

Now, let's catch up on cartoons

Errr....

Why the fuck is blogger changing the type of letter I'm using in the middle of my posts? :\

I'm not going to bother investigating this shit. Fuck it.

What else is new?

I'm placing University on a secondary level, and I'm giving a shot at Entrepreneurship.

Time to stop being a wuss and going with the flow and be bold on that area of my life. There'll never be a better time to go for this than now.

I've been struggling with this decision but I seem to be feeling good about it. Even have some good ideas to explore.

What else?

I have another American Football game on Saturday. Against the 2nd placed team. I'll play Offense, Defense and Special Teams again. Our Superstar starting Running Back is very close to call it quits on his sports career, due to the tearing of cartilage on his knee, which means more beating left for me. :\

What else?

Regarding facial hair, I've been sporting a Van Dyke, but yesterday I decided to try a new thing, a sort of "the musketeer"/"the guy fawkes".

(Van Dyke)

(The musketeer)

I still don't look cool at all, but... Fuck it :D

Update

17 days since my last post.

What's new?

I've converted to Christianity.

Boom!

That alone is astonishing. Small change, and yet such a big difference on the way of seeing things. From believing there is no God to accepting He does exist and Jesus died for my sins.

I'm still struggling with some of my views, since I was an Atheist for so long, it doesn't go away like that. But it's not that difficult as I imagined it would be either. Reading Christian books and the Bible has been helping me understand a lot about my Faith, the whole reason why we're here and why humans are so screwed up.

It's weird that something that was so illogical now is so clear and helps me understand the world better.

Am I going to change the type of blog because of this change? No. I'll even avoid mentioning Faith related topics, but since it is now a part of me, it's hard to separate myself from it, so there's a good possibility my updates may be Christian-charged once in a while.

Am I going to stop posting funny atheist stuff? No. There are very few things that we shouldn't be able to laugh from, and some of the Christian beliefs (even those I now share) are very laughable given the proper set-up. It doesn't mean I'm mocking my faith or my God, it means I can laugh from myself and specially some of the crazy shit my Christian counterparts that are more extreme advocate.

Also (and I'll move forward from this in a moment), there are some self-proclaimed Christians that annoy me so much more than any atheist in the world. People that go to dead soldiers funerals with the "God Hates Fags" signs, Priests that molest kids, just to name a few. Because these people give a bad name to Christianity and actually do more to keep people from Faith than any atheist ever could.

DAMN! I mean... DAAAAMN!

I just fell in love again. Holy bejeezuz.

DAMN!

Football, Football, American Fucking Football

So, my team lost 0-38. That sucked. At halftime we were only losing by 10 and we had had already 3 opportunities to score...

Oof...

Then it was Superbowl time. Giants won. Cool.

I called it.

Then I had practice Wednesday. We suffered quite a bit in conditioning... :s

Today... I had massages, to cure my body. (My shoulder is killing me :s)

Anyway, what I'm saying is, I went through a physically and mentally rough week, but I'm in great mood.

Now, I'll go relax while watching a movie before today's free dinner.

P. S: I'm going to miss the NFL.... August can't get here fast enough...

There are no free lunches

Ok, what about dinners?

Because I could have had one yesterday, I'll have one today, and tomorrow. Monday too.

Saturday and Sunday are still up for grabs.

Let's go people.

We can create something beautiful here.

Let's work to make this possible.

My two new additions to my musical repertoire

The King has spoken.

Aristides de Sousa Mendes

There's something that has always astound me in this man's life.

Here's a wiki summary of his life.

I can understand how fear and the need to do what was right would be battling in his head before he decided to do what was right.

What always fascinated me was his resolution, right until the end of his life, in poverty and disgrace:

"I would rather stand with God against man, than with man against God"

"I could not have acted otherwise, therefore I accept all that has befallen me with love"

That's just powerful.

This is a true hero. His name should be known.

And the vid...

... That has been building me up for Sunday's game.

Couple creative ones

So... What's up?

I've done some exams for University, passed some, failed some. Going to sign up to redo the ones I failed.

Next Sunday my team is going to face the National Champions. The guys who haven't been beaten for 3 years now. Going to be a great game. There's a good probability I'll end that game with a limp here or there. No biggie.

Tomorrow... I'm starting swimming lessons. Yes, at 24, I'm starting swimming lessons. I want to learn the proper technique, and become good at it. Next 6 months, 3 times a week, at 8 am. Boom.

All in all, I've been cherishing my free time week.

And there's something I'm forgetting...

Something...

Ah, it must not be that important.
