We are, by natural evil. Not premeditatedly nor proudly, or at least we like to think so. We are so fearful to face the simple fact that we are indeed by nature, selfish, we are born just any other species form this highly diverse biodiversity that earth hosts with the common, unique element present in al life forms, essential for our survival, elemental for our failure as society, but success as individuality. That element is the one of selfishness and egocentrism for the sake of our survival, either emotional, mental, hormonal and not just mortal.
We seek for completeness, through any of those mediums, usually with a great sense of lack of attention on the counter-part. We will only focus on external happiness and equilibrium once we have fond ours. Therefore, it is obvious to deduce that for the first instances in a human, idealistic and natural relation all that our body intends is to full fill whatever space is left.
It is the moral and ethical values the last to be learned, the hardest, the ones that tend to go against desire. We are born this way; we fight against our own visceral and most carnal necessities of looking of no one's shoulders but ourselves. Is first as children, then as adults that sacrifices are to be done for the others.
Goodness if so may it be called is the mere human-created feeling to fight against the obvious need for evilness in the sense of tending to turn us in centers and not parts of the circle that encloses our community. We intentionally and consciously fight against this obvious truth that we commonly forget, that one, that as well as sex, anger, hunger and energy belong to the most elemental and animal segment which we inherit and transmit generation after generation.
It has been the struggle of human society to replace individualism with collectiveness, to change from anarqy to democracy, from violence to regret and acceptance.
So, if it is clearly known in the big plane I assume it must be dangerously obvious in a personal level. Or why not do we like to see and have other beauty but are too distracted and uninterested in offering ours, why is it that we always demand the best of the other and only then think in giving the best of us to him. This is just a larger description of what may only be known as shallowness, cause once a more deeper insight has been employed it becomes naked to the most blind emotional eye that we rarely start with generous and thoughtful ideas, actions and more than anything sex.
Sin is just the name for the constant rate of flaws which escape from our constant battle and struggle against our loud talking instincts to follow them, and instead we try to mute them eventually loosing the battle and calling it a sin. Impure thought, selfish act, deliberate and adrenaline-pure brutality.
We seek the opposite sex first than for the unique reason of completeness. Although we usually forget to say what is already known, that we are talking about our loneliness, our need for completeness, our vacuum to fill, and not our part to give and satisfaction to award.
It is not hard to notice is, just think of how many times have you have committed this in states of hunger, urge, nervousism, adrenaline or even sexual and physical needs. Whether in a meal with the food at table, at a sport for individual satisfaction and victory or the need for attention.
It is not anti-human, decadent or fatalistic to admit this, there is nothing to admit in fact, just to notice. It has come to my attention the fact that what makes several of friendships or even higher levels of commitment of constantly fail is that need for natural usage for resources. A symbiosis so-speaking, in which as its definition dictates cares not for the other and parallely receiving the reward, but for the survival of one himself in exchange for the partial lost of something in possession.
In is in our blood, we are evil, we are carnal, but that don´t necessary implicate it is in our brain or even person. It is will and has been our struggle, which goes back to the very first moments of sin in humanity. Nevertheless, as in hormonal needs, it tends to be hard to sustain this more “human” mode.

THE FOLLOWING IS A POST FROM THE OTHER BLOG: GROOVYLATINO.BLOGSPOT.COM, THE PICS ARE FROM A RENUNION AT ROBERTO'S HOUSE...(the pics are after the part in spanish)


Al igual que Sasso vi que tienen razon, hace tiempo que no escribimos... Aca AL FINAL DE ESTE POST PUSE LAS FOTOS que tomamos de lo que fue la primera fiesta que he ido desde que volvi ... Muy buena, charlando y reencontrandonos y despues por joda a la picina. Por increible que paresca no hubo tanto alcohol jeje. Voy a contar un poquito tambien en mas detalle de lo que venimos haciendo estos dias desde que estoy aca:

Dia 8, llego yo y me encuentro con Sasso en su casa, despues nos vamos al spot donde llego despues Roberto y Sushi que llegaban del Summer School. Despues voy para casa de Sasso, vemos una pelicula y venimos para casa. Ahi mas tarde se junta Robo con Juan Pablo y nos pasamos la noche charlando y testando las 32 marcas de cigarros. (Este dia de noche llego Alexandra por cierto)

Dia 9, es la fiesta de Robo. para la gente que me conoce sabe que tardo en vestirme y la cosa y normalmente soy "un poquiito" tardado jeje, pero bueno espere a Sasso que se vino a casa para irnos juntos a casa de Robo. Llegamos como a las 9 de la noche y debimos haber estado en realidad a las 3 o 5 de la tarde, pero bueno... Llegamos y esta Andres, Malu, Chicao, Martine, un amigo muy buena gente de Andres, Juanpa, despues Saboya y luego llegaro unas amigas de Jualiana junto con ella. La fiesta estuo tranquila sin mucho exceso, estupidez y sin nadie vomitando. Mas tarde cuando solo quedaba Juliana y su amiga se tiraron a la picina y luego caimos el resto, algunos con Ropa, otros mas preparados con short de baño, y ahi la cosa se prolongo. Cuando se fueron todos yo y Sasso nos quedamos a dormir y ayudar a alzar (que no habia mucho tirado en realidad igual), comimos todas las M & M's que pudimos y vimos una pelicula que no sabemos el final porque caimos dormidos.

Dia 10, ("hoy" hace unas horas). De casa de Robo lo acompañamos al colegio donde Sasso se llevo sus libros y cada quien se fue para casa. Originalmente iba a haber una cena aca en casa en honor a Paul y su familia que estaban de vacaciones pero se cancelo. Asi que solo vino la familia de Robo y salimos los 3 (ni Sasso, ni Andres, ni Chicao pudieron salir con nosotros) a encontrarnos con Ale que no la habiamos visto y las otras chicas. Pero al momento que llegamos se estaban levantando para irse y bueno regresamos todo el camino de vuelta a casa donde nos quedamos charlando los 3... ahora son como las 2 de la mañana, hace como 1 hora que se fueron y aca estoy contandoles de como han estado estos dias.

Aprovecho para mandar un saludo a todos los que no han vuelto y que sigamos escribiendo todos. Aprovechen donde esten y denle a la fiesta...

Se siente bien estar en Rio despues de ese tiempo fuera... Como se extrañaban los amigos....

Bueno y ahora las fotos...

Isn’t it amazing how people sleep when it rains? Probably no one is actually gonna read this, now on vacations… Well I suppose u have better stuff to d than to be stuck in front a 14’ monitor reading this blog.

Anyway. I called Chicao, Sasso, and yesterday Ale, Estevan, Roberto and others any my answers were either their voice with a sleepy tone, or someone from their house explain me they were having a pleasant nap.

Let me briefly update my status:


Monday 9th:

As a good student I went to classes only to realize it is only me and one student from our senior class. Immediately I decide the best option is leave as soon as possible. Then as planned I go home, rest and don the famous “nothing” or a while, till I realise it is time to begin my trip to Barra. I supposed to meet Macarena around 4:30, but since I played the scout boy and decided to take the 179 Bus I go to Barra around 5:00. I got to Andres’s house from where I was supposed to get a cab. Thankfully she was there. I stayed there for a while and now I am going to jump directly to the night when I left to the Mexican movie premier at Downtown for some clear reasons. There I met with my parents and watched “el crimen del padre Amaro” which is a Mexican film that will be shown here only till January, and it was like a special session or thing of the sort.

Tuesday 10th:

I was supposed to meet Ale someplace in Rio. But she was sleeping during most of the morning, so since I had not gone to classes I stayed home once again relaxing. Later at night I went to Roberto’s house with Sasso. There, Caroline, Martine, Juliana, Juan Pablo (Roberto’s brother that lives in Guatemala) and Estevan were waiting for us.
The night went long. We ended up going to sleep at 5:00 AM time when they left. Sasso and me we spent the night at Robo’s Place. AS juniors they still had tests. Today they had a chemistry test, which after that kind of reunion were not able to get the books.

Wednesday (Today) 11th:

And so we all went to school today with less that 3 hours of sleep and with a weird smell*.
There I finished my physics project, finally had my meeting with Dr. Lyndaker (Headmaster) about colleges, and talked to Mr. Pinherio briefly about my thesis.
By brunch we were out of school eating in a nearby lanchonete for R$1.50. Then I came home and my friends slept again, and now Andres called me to do something. But I still have to pack and get the last things done. For the record, I have not done a single preparation for the trip.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------



By the way I am travelling tomorrow and coming back to Rio on January the 8th. During these holidays we are going to have the following public and free-for-all-to-write BLOG called: http://groovylatino.blogspot.com. There we are planning to keep in touch. I would really appreciate if u guys could go into the blog and post when are u travelling and when are u coming back. And remember we still have to do that trip.

Updating from School, so expect several spelling mistakes...

Seniours Updating from School, 9:36 AM

Seniors from OLM are not even supposed to come to school Thursday and Friday. Plus on the following week, we only have optional exams, which probably no one is gonna take. So for most of the seniors vacations already started.

I actually had to come to school, and not have calls to wait for Sasso and Estevan. Yesterday I came but I left with Richard and Sasso. The reason for this is “Feira da Providencia” at Rio Centro.

Out school requires us to get 60 hours of community service outside school to graduate. I have only about 10. So by gong from 10 AM to 10 PM for 4 days I get at least 48 hours. SO there u know. I am only waiting them to finish their tests and the journey to Rio Centro begins.

In case u don't know where Rio Centro is, it is next to where Rock in Rio occurred. First we walk too humaita to get the 179 which leads us up to the Barra Bus Station, then from there we take a ban that takes us to the feria. There we sell at the Poland’s barraca. Most people from school are at the USA one. And believe me, it is gets u pretty tired. In fact yesterday we even sell around 400 reais in products and brought a full stock of boxes for the supply center 3 times.

The thing is… We have 4 free tickets and a hope that any of u guys will go. So if u actually decide to visit it, got to Poland or something. We can get u polish beer o r something. Me and Sasso we are planning a big strike which consists of the following: Due to the amount of effort and time we will invest in the barraca, as a commission we are planning in beg for a bit of products. And if that doesn’t work we will steal both male and female mannequins whom we heard are very valuable.

Yesterday was our first day there, and we are gonna leave school on about 20 min. to go to Barra.

My cell phone will be turned on, but Sasso is gonna be on the whole day. The number is 941 505 60. Give us a call or something. PLEASE!! HELP THE COMMUNITY SERVICE PEOPLE BY BUYING US A BEER!!!

I’ll get home at late night probably; hope I can go to Festival de Curtos for the premiacao. I also have extra tickets for the festival, so f u need them, cause probably I won’t we able to get on time.

Nos vemos, y aguante el NOODLE…
