December 10th

Great week. Tuesday PSV, where Jefferson Farfán (Peruvian) is playing, won its match in the Champions league and classified for the next round. Wednesday Bayern Munich F. C., where two Peruvian strikers play (Claudio “El Bombardero de los Andes” Pizarro and Paolo “Predator” Guerrero) won their Champions league match and pass to the next round; the same day I finished with my History class, now is time to do some work for the other classes and start studying some more for them; and Sporting Cristal couldn’t defeat Alianza Lima (my favorite soccer team over the world) so they couldn’t be champions of the Peruvian league; finally yesterday Nolberto “Nobby” Solano scores the only goal in the match in the victory of Newcastle united over Arsenal F.C. Best week ever? Maybe, I hope I get better ones because I certainly liked this one.

What a great match. Fantastic goals. .. Just perfect, I am talking about Tottenham Spours against Sunderland; a 3-2 match, none deserved to lose, but someone has to. Sunderland is still in last position but they are getting a bit better, if they carry on like that, they might stay in the premier league.

November 25th

Thanksgiving!!!!!! Great day to have a holiday, but I still have to read some more for my history class, the professor think that is the only class we have or what, there is way to much homework and is making me not to do some work for other classes.

November 19th

What a waste of time and money!!!! Today I saw a pay-per-view match (Chelsea F.C. against Newcastle United F.C.) In addition, I was expecting not only a good match but also my favorite team, Newcastle, to win, bit they did not, they loose 3-0 and playing like the worst team ever. I hope they get better... and better be quick; I do not want them to go to first division.

October 22nd

What a shame, I was hoping a comfortable victory of Chelsea F.C. -the champions of last season- against Everton; which last season had a tremendous starting, they were undefeated for three months; but everything change, that is why they are now playing so they don’t go to the first division and stay in the FA premier league of England, by the way the match ended 1-1, it was a good match for those who like soccer like me.

Long day in Long Island

Sunday morning I had to get up at 7 a.m. to go to Long Island to pick up my mom, who was taking care of my aunt who had a surgery; First I went to New York Penn Station taking the 8:14 train from North Elizabeth; I got there aroung 8:50, so I could take the train of 9:14 to Brentwood (I got there around 10:30); more that 2 HOURS train trip doing... nothing, I can say I "waste my time" getting there.

When I got there they (my family) were just waking up to get breakfast, so I took a good breakfast -mine at home wasn't that good- and talk with them for hours, while talking we start playing cards, a game called "ocho locos"; as usual, in our family, the youngest one won almost all the games -lucky for me I was the youngest- after lunch we got back home, once again two-hour-train-trip back home.

Coments on AA's Blog

Do not read it it's a blog by Armando Angeles, classmate in my class in Eng 1430; that talks about many things such as movies, thougths, opinios, etc. It is very interesting to me because it makes me see things in a different way. Grammat and vocabulary are good, but there are some misspellings, everything else, as I said, is good.

SAW II

Finally a good movie that is the sequence of another, I haven't seen one since "The godfather II". I went this saturday to wacht "saw II"; to tell you the truth I didn't expect much of it because the second part of any movie is usually bad, but this one was awesome, I hope there is a third one with more surprises than the other two, but "...you have to play by the rules".

Coments on DG's Blog

My thoughts, by DG, is a blog that talks about feelings and thoughts; it's pretty expresive and led us to understand how she thinks and feels when something that affect her life happens. I found some misspelling errors but they are tiny, so they don't affect the reading.I found it really interesting because I can relate some experiences of my life with hers.

BUSY FRIDAY

Today I have been so busy I didn't have enough time to do all the things I wanted to. The morning started at 9 a.m. with the first exam in economics; it wasn't easy and what made it harder was that I couldn't study because I had to read many pages for my History class, well what is done is done, the next exams I will be ready to get a 100. Afeter that exams, which last like 'til 10 or 10:15, I had to go to work; there is not hard beacuse I already know what I have to do. Then I had a lot of fun talking with my tutor (Prof. Campell), but I think she didn't enjoy it as much as I did. Last thing at school, I went back to work to install some program at the HH building. When I went back home I started reading for the second exam in History, this time I don't want it to interfear with my economics exam, but I completly forgot about updating my final draft at wiki.

GREAT DAY

This day has been great. To begin with, we (dad, my brother and I) sang "Happy Birthday" to mom it was relly cool because it was at the same time when she born and dad is not here, he is in Peru. Then, at school, classes went really great (Intro to CAD), I have become really good with that course but I haven't any 10's because the professor don't like giving us that note, so I only have 9's and a couple of 8's. Work today was good too, I figured out how to fix an old kind of projector after some time (last summer I fixed the apple IIe); I think I getting good at it too, I hope I can get a raise soon :). This day was great, after a long time I had one like that

WEEKEND

I was hopping to have a nice weekend, relaxing from the clases, I know it is too soon to be sating that but it is because my history class is taking a lot of time from me, anyways I tried to relax a bit watching some sports, soccer to be more specific, Liverpool against Chelsea FC, I was hoping the "Reds" to defeat Chelsea, but ... you know what comes next, yeah, Chelsea won. Now I have to wait for the next match between them for the Champions League. I expect a victory from Liverpool.

HEAVY METAL

The blog made by luv jana talks about how heavy metal is bad look by people that doesn't like it and think that it is a bad influece to people, specially teenagers, which I don't agree. luv jana's bolg is very interesting, has good information based on (News), has good develop of ideas and support its point of view; and the grammar is very good.

One of the other bolgs "New album release" is a blog that talks about a new album released. It is strong: knowledge of the topic and good grammar), but the ideas need to be develop.

Last but not least "Heavy metal, dark metal, death metal ... art metal?!" tells to us about how metal is becoming more accepted by people and now it is call an "art". The blog is really good: knowledge of the topic, good grammar, good develop and good sources to get more imformation about the topic

Weekend, finally, this week I have been so busy, doing a lot of homework, specially history, that without considering the reading was a Confucio's book; working in T-217 meeting the new lab assistants (Naama and Sindy), teaching them what do we usually do in the lab and things like that, learning Korean (thanks to Seung-Hae) and going to classes every morning.

Now I'm going to enjoy my weekend starting, as always, watching soccer macthes for the Barclay's premiership (England) and talking about them with my brother.

2005-09-19T10:48:00.000-07:00

Yesterday was a really busy day, first watch a soccer game, Liverpool against Manchester United, very good match, I had a great time with my brother since I can't remember, then we went to his room to do some work he had and I saty watching tv; while that was happening my mom was doing cake and when was taking it out of the oven she burn herself so I had to take to the hospital lucky for her it wasn't bad. I knew I would have some time in the hospital so I took my books of History,it is not that I like history it just I need to study a lot because I am having some trouble with that and I don't want my GPA to go down.

2005-09-15T19:59:00.000-07:00

This day has been quite productive, I finished my work at class really fast, even the porfessor congratulated me because it was great, unfortunately I couldn't finished my homework for my history class because there were too many words in the reading text so I had to be looking for their significate in the dictionary, which is good because I'm learning new words and my vocabulary it's increasing, but not for the homework beacuse it makes me waste some time.

first day in 1430

After my vacation I'm back to college; even though this week is the second one, it feels like the first because it's monday :s. The class seems to be OK, but as I said this is only the first class, I expect it to be much better.
