.-The go round

El Columpio, corto español.
I loooove this...i´ve been ther, i bet you have too, we all have, it´s great! and it reminds me of a line in the sound of settling by death cab for cutie "i´ll sit and wonder of every that could have been if i´d only thought of something charming to say".

.-Fuerza bruta

Cuando vienen a venezuela???? (great joke eh?)

.-M. Night Shyamalan is the new Hitchcock

That´s overrating him, i know, but i just came home after watching "The Happening", which i loved as much as his other movies. There´s something about the ambientation, the music, the women, kids and path of his stories that i love, even tho there´s always a little something out of the context, still i like his style sooooooooooo much, it gives me a hitchcockish breeze (jaja, just like in the happening)...i highly recomend this one! =)

.-Random Thoughts of the Day

.-The past tends to seem more poetic than the present, even if it wasn´t as good as today.

.-Is there a way to measure change?? how much change is healthy? how much is too much? how fast is too fast??

.-I change too much, or too fast, sometimes is great, sometimes sucks...This time, sucks...

.-The perfect love song

It actually is...pay attention to every line...ithas something that no other love song i´ve ever heard has...it talks about timming (cause timming is everything), about that someone you love, loving you back just enough. every metaphore is as illustrative as it can be. it´s a down to earth love song, about suceptibility, efforts and risks and assuming your weekness. I just identify a lot with this song, i even remember the first time i heard this song and it makes me nostalgic, and confused about a lot of things, but well i guess i have a life to find out! I just hope the road keeps being as fun as it has been so far!

This is the first day of my life
I swear I was born right in the doorway
I went out in the rain suddenly everything changed
They're spreading blankets on the beach

Yours is the first face that I saw
I think I was blind before I met you
Now I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I’ve been
But I know where I want to go

And so I thought I’d let you know
That these things take forever
I especially am slow
But I realize that I need you
And I wondered if I could come home

Remember the time you drove all night
Just to meet me in the morning
And I thought it was strange you said everything changed
You felt as if you'd just woke up
And you said “this is the first day of my life
I’m glad I didn’t die before I met you
But now I know i don’t care I could go anywhere with you
And I’d probably be happy”

So if you want to be with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to wait and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to win the lottery
Besides maybe this time is different
I mean I really think you like meeeeee.

P.s: The video is also grrrrreat!

.-My Blueberry Nights

I don´t really know Wong Kar Wai, i just saw 2046 (which i hated, i only liked the look of the girls on the futurist side of the story), but from the first time y saw the poster for "My Blueberry Nights" i knew i had to see that movie...and i did it the 1st weekend it was on...and i loooooooooooooooooove it! i really do! it had been a while since the last melancholic/nostalgic/magic/brainylove movie i saw...

If you dig eternal sunshine, garden state, amelie, etc, etc, etc. You have to enjoy this one. I love jude law, his acting is so raw yet sofiticated, norah jones gets to be inocent all the way trough the movie with a lil bit unspiced (does that word even exists??) attitude, natalie portman plays the southern crazy girl role so gracefully that when you try to remember her in closer or V for Vendetta she gets to be a different person, she´s going up on my fave actresses list! and a story carefully knitted with some "secondary" characters with so many problems and emotions that stole me a couple of tears...

Ahhh! y los detalles! los colores! el ambiente en el cafe de Jeremy! Las luces! La velocidad! WKW es un genio visual! Gosh! <3

"I took the long way to cross the street" <3

.-Therapist

...My Therapist says my work is a hard work beacause it briongs me close to other people pain, and it´s true...and sometimes is great to see your patient walk away in perfect shape, or like in some speciall cases...i have a patient, a lovely woman who is about 77 or 78 years old who had a wrist fracture and had her hand almost useless, and now that she has started cooking again keeps bringing me delicious food!!! yey!!

anyways...i read something super fun today... think about it: "Therapist=Therapist" jajajajaja! yes, i think it´s funny!

.-As Always...

I always come back when i´m pissed off....

i haven´t written in a whole lot of time, but right know there´s somthing going on and off in the back of my head...death...

working at a hospital can be awesome but heartbreaking...

you get to meet awesome people (employees, students and patients), like this guy i met on the first days of february, he was such a fun man, specially for a man in the ICU, i remember we talked about movies, the beatles, trips, ice creams, it was amazing how every monday he asked me about how i spent my weekend, and he kept asking me wath exercises to do because he wanted to be walking pretty soon, i remember one day a dr was counting the patients going out of the ICU and he started yelling: "dr! here! me!! me!! Mariom get me a whistle! get me a whistle or a mic! help me! i´m gonna start a march!", he was a good patient, even in the days when he was so weak that he could barely talk he tried to make jokes...weeks passed and passed, he got better, got worse, i met his whole family and some friends, got better again, it was on and off...then my 3 months shift on the hospitalization area ended and my good friend Olga and i switched patients, a weekago i found out he was on the ICU again, a few days after he passed away...as i found out tears started bursting out of my eyes, not only for his wife, his 3 sons and his daughther...it was mostly for him! it was ALL about him...

i mean...he was there because of a small ddigestive problem, it was a simple procedure, but something wasn´t rigth...and things started to be worse and worse each day, it was unhuman...he had a huge open wound in his stomach and he couldn´t eat (i remember he wanted us to get him some vanilla ice cream)...

do you imagine spending 4 months in bed in a hospital, not been able to move, to eat, in the hopes of going home and free again?? and then die!!!! what the hell?? i mean...if the universe ment to teach him or his family something....it wasn´t necesary to put them trough all that suffering!!! and now they have to pay for all that insurance covering, and they are all alone...

plus...all i can imagine is how scared he should have been when he was about to die...even tho...i guess he might have been gratefull that it was over...i just, i hope his wife was there to hold his hand, or at least a nurse, i mean if i had to die and i couldnt have my mom by my side, i´d like to have someone to hold my hand, i don´t mind if its a stranger...

i wanna talk to his wife...i´ve been meaning to call her, bu t i wouldn´t know what to say, i just wanna show her support, but...i can´t even think of it without crying a lil bit...
