Orange’s triumph

Looking at some photos of me in Zürich, I realized that I love my orange T-shirt. Moreover I also enjoy wearing my orange sweater. But the most interesting discovery I made was that the walls of my bedroom are (dark) orange too. Hold on!, also my favourite towel is orange. So I looked for some… Read More »

Biological cleaning

A month ago I drunk the last tea from my old teapot. I neglected it in a corner of the kitchen, with some water and green tea leaves. I thought the cheap iron that it was made of was too old, and the teas didn’t taste good. Today I thought of giving it a second… Read More »

Tactics & Strategy in life

“Tactics is doing the things right. Strategy is doing the right thing” Next weekend I’m going to participate in the “Gofme Handicap Go Tournament“. It’s probably the funniest Go tournament in Spain (but also “Go in the Street”, held in Barcelona in August, it’s another winner).

I can also program it with the numeric keyboard it has, but it’s quicker to use the data-wheel as the input device. They said it’d be repaired in 2 or 3 weeks. One… Read More »

Trip to Zürich

Last weekend I visited Zürich, and I was staying at my friend Ana’s house. A lot of things happened to me, but the most relevant was about “my english”. Everyone says my english is fluent enough, but I felt in Zürich it is not. So I have the determination to improve it as hard as… Read More »

Internet es el punto de apoyo

Pensaba, mientras iba en autobús, tratando de abrir mis ojos sonámbulos… Hoy es imposible cambiar el mundo. Sin embargo, es muy fácil cambiar algo en Internet. Bueno, relativamente fácil. E internet está cambiando el mundo. ¿”Cambiar” será una operación con propiedad asociativa? “Dame un punto de apoyo, y moveré el mundo” – Arquímedes ¡Internet es… Read More »
