Es definitivo... Esta vaina e un ressort!

Ok, adivinen a ver donde es esta vaina:

Malibu, California??? no viejo, este es el patio del "gimansio"...

Esta tarde me acorde, despues de 3 semanas aqui que nunca habia pisado el gym y voy de lo mas quitao de bulla pa mi gymnasio en shorts y chalcleta, dique pa ve k lo k...

Toy afuera, veo que es un edificion grande (claro, tamo en texas, todo es grande aki... sobretodo las camionetas... es mejor no dejarse atropellar pq aqui dan mas duro todavia)... una vaina bien... un edificio de 3 planta con aire... un gym como el body shop... na... yo entro... y lo primero k veo al fondo es esta vaina:

Para los k no se dieron cuenta de la lo ke es... es una pared para escalar... si, adentro del edificio... y ese balconcito que se ve alla atras es la 3ra planta, yo tire la foto de la segunda... na...

Sigo caminando... y me encuentro con tremendas canchas:

 Todas de tabloncillo... esa es 1 de las 6 que hay.... y sin contar las 8 canchas de squash que tienen... todo techado claro...

Cuando me da con salir, salgo por la puerta de atras, y me encuentro con esta vaina:

Ok, la primera son 2 piscinas, una semi olimpica y la otra de baniarse con los niños (de ahi la analogia del ressort) y lo otro son las tres canchas de basket... no se olviden de la 3 canchas de voley de playa de arriba...

ok, dense el pasillo ahora:

 esas 3 cositas son gente...

...y mi parte favorita de ultimo:

 La pista de correr... en el 3er piso... con pisos de chevron para que las rodillas sufran menos... con una circunferencia de casi 400 metros... no ta mal, eh?

Hey, por una vez k toy impresionado dejeme ser LOL

ps: lo primero k hice despues de salir de ahi fue irme a cambiar pa darle un par de vueltas a la pista... todo bieeeeen :p

Passionate entrepreneurship/ Passion et entreprenariat

Today, on the Entrepreneurial issues class: A speaker presented his experience... He left his job as a university teacher in a MAJOR US university to start a company in order to push his research discoveries forward through regulations processes in order to get it on the market.

His reason for doing it: Humanitarian reasons or as he said "The results were just too promising to just let them sleep in the darkness of a university laboratory."

The results he was talking about were experimental proofs that this technology could, through drug delivery, make possible NEURAL REGENERATION. Personally, being kind of a scientist, I can tell you that this is the Holy Grail of regenerative neuroscience... The only thing that struck me was the fact that even though the results were promising, they didn't seem conclusive enough to give birth to a useful medical technology.


So here is our guy: Determined and really knowledgeable in his field like those people that you can guess, even by their manners, have the highest intellectual education. He had this behavior of a really smart person... maybe too smart for everyone else. It was clear to be seen, and if you couldn't see it was to be felt, on his way of speaking and the ideas he transmitted throughout the presentation. Nevertheless, he looked lost, had this empty look that morally exhausted people have. He had the attitude of the men determined to do great things no matter the cost... in fact, he described what his point of view on prices to pay in life:

"You haven’t yet paid the highest price you will be called on to make"

He looked passionate, he looked smart, he looked determined and he looked sad, but above all he looked consumed and worn...

[This made me realize a couple of things about human will and about perception. I hope this works out for you too...]

The diplomatic affairs/ Les affaires diplomatiques

Aujourd'hui j'ai ete invité au resto par un de mes profs et la personne chargée des echanges internationaux... c'etait cool de manger avec des grandes personnes tres serieuses (c'est pas de moi, c'est de saint exup') qui m'on posé maintes questions sur les etudes en France, la vie la bas et comment ça allait pour moi jusque la.

Si vous voulez tout savoir, le resto s'appelais "Fish Daddy's" (blague américaines a deux balles qui ne fait pas rire). J'ai mangé un sandwich au poissont frit avec des frites qui etait plutot bon. pas gourmet mais bon lol. Donc, durant ce meeting diplomatique nous avons parle de choses tres serieuses au début comme la possibilité d'envoyer un etudiant américain en France, et de chose moins serieuses comme de la degustation de rhums portoricains et dominicains (barcelo imperial en occurence). Je suis plutot content de ma performance linguistique du fait que j'ai pu sortir des paragraphes entiers avec une coherence accecptable. c'est a dire que tout va bien coté linguistique!
