Me entere que AKB48 va a Los Angeles el primero de Julio, quiero ir, pero lo tengo en chino.
Este blog ya está por alcanzar la mayoría de edad, es una cosa de locos, pocos llegan a hacerse tan viejos. Algún día veremos actividad en http://jiff01.com/

Talk is Cheap
Pero, en estos días que no he podido bloggear a lo mejor he tenido más tiempo para que mi cabeza aprehensiva le de vueltas y vueltas a algunas cosas.
Hablar es bien fácil, lo difícil es ser congruente, y lo más difícil es explicar como una decisión que a primeras parece que se contradice con tu esquema de valores o con lo que pregonas es el resultado de una decisión difícil para elegir el menor de dos males.
Ustedes saben que yo tengo ya casi 10 años de maestro, en ese periodo he trabajado casi siempre con chicos de secundaria y preparatoria, algunos universitarios, algunos de primaria y a veces con gente que en aquel entonces me doblaba la edad (hoy ya no, ya nada más son unos años mayores que yo) y un aspecto que no todos conocen es que Rafael Gomez, un maestro de escasa calidad humana quiso joderme la vida cuando estuve en la vocacional #9, y la vida me lo puso enfrente cuando ya estaba egresado, pero, ejercer la venganza que tantas veces soñé me hubiera rebajado a su nivel, el tipo me hizo perder años, pero él tiene la vida podrida.
Entonces creo que algo se de tratar con jóvenes, yo creo que si una persona no ha demostrado tener los conocimientos debe repetir el año y que eso no tiene nada que ver con lo bien o mal que te puedan caer el alumno o sus padres.
Es sabido que no me gustan las libertades que algunos se toman con el español, como escribir con "K", pero croe que la dificultad en comunicare, la pena que eso les provocara en un futuro y lo poco estético que es ya son suficiente castigo, yo no soy la policía del castellano, y nadie ha dicho que escribir mal sea un crimen, además, los defensores a ultranza del español harían bien en reconocer que hay muchos casos donde las cosas podrían hacerse mejor, tener tres letras con el mismo sonido como : s, z y a veces la C, no es de un idioma perfecto, así que no hay lugar para esas posiciones absolutistas y triunfalistas.
@solsupernova, una twittera a la que deberían seguir porque hace muy ameno el timeline puso éste tweet
Algo también he visto de gente que presume de tener ortografía perfecta y a la hora buena, les sale "el tiro por la culata", porque esa presunción convierte a muchos en eternos cazadores de sus errores, si, definitivamente ya no soy el mismo. Yo comenté que no es fácil dar un juicio en unas palabras:
Aunque ella parece pensar que no es así.

Y el highlight de la semana fue
Me desconcierta esa manía de grabar con el celular, la respeto, siempre y cuando noi me lo pongan en el horizonte visual, ahí si me puedo poner muy necio.
Muse nunca será como para mi como Lacrimosa o Metallica, pero me gusta mucho, no tengo una rola favorita como tampoco tengo alguna que no me gusta, todo lo de ellos me agrada, a pesar de que sólo tengo un par de años escuchándolos.
Aunque viendo los vídeos de los chicos de abajo, parece que hubiera sido otro evento, si de algo no se pueden quejar los "artistas" extranjeros es que el mexicano es un público entregado apriori, cálido y que no exige ni buenos tratos ni la mejor presentación.
Yo también
I believe a stronger sense of empathy would tilt the balance of our current politics in favor of those people who are struggling in this society
Steam en todas partes
Parece que pueden jugar Portal "de a grapa" en lo que dura la beta, pero eso no es todo, Linux parece ser el próximo objetivo de los de Valve, en blogsDNA reportan al igual que en Engadget que en el código de la beta maquera hay referencia al pingüino, como siempre, esto es un conflicto entre no usar nada, pero nada propietario en el software, vaya, que ni los drivers o admitir la ocasión...y por último ¿se acuerdan de la beta con la nueva interfaz que se actualiza a cada rato?
Pues ya está lista para ser Steam y ser uniforme en todas las plataformas
Emulando a El Jobso,
"So...a revolutionary software, at the right price and support for eveything?"

Where's JIFF
Well as many of you know I severed the ties with NSK on march 31st , but not completely, I'm still in contact with them for work reasons as well because I left many friends there.
Yes, you know, this is not the first time I'm out of the NSK, but I don't believe I will be returning there in such a short time as the last time if ever.
As I told them, I have nothing but praise for the company that took me to Brazil and Japan, as well as the United States, Canada and Panama, I had already been to the U.S. and I only set foot on the latter two countries in order to catch a plane, that is why I almost always omit them.
Times flies by, I remember that five years ago I was writing as a restless student willing to make an effort in his last semester at college, but life took me some other places, I did work at a metrology lab for only four weeks, and also was an assistan proffesor at Unitec then I was summoned to the NSK, the only place where actual English speaking capabilities made a f***ing difference, I felt vindicated because up to that moment it hadn't been a differentiator, not at all, then I was on an expo at Toluca not even two weeks after being signed, and I was on Sao Paulo ogling at the world's most beautiful women only a month and a half after that important day June 16th 2006, that was almost enough for me, but that ride was not about to slow down just there, I had to go to that city I love to hate known as Tijuana a lot of times and one was only to get a visa for the U.S. and head to Franklin, Indiana on February 2007, that year was one of the greatest, I started studying French and without expecting it also went to Japan for a second time and also started studying Japanese (after refusing to do I when I was 17 years old), returning from that trip was when things started going sour and that song All good things come to and end appeared on my playlist and the honeymoon was over, but of course that doesn't mean I was willing or ready to leave and I really screwed things leaving for Walworth on May 2008, working with those people was something really stupid, you shouldn't speak poorly of your past employers and I've been lucky that in most cases I can't, but Walworth was the worst, I was forced to lie about the place where the valves are made, treated as a blue collar worker and both parties agreed that it was an awful mistake and so I left and they let me go willingly and that is when I returned to NSK.
As the eternal drifter and someone who does not have the slightest clue of what he should be doing I decided it was time to aim for a masters degree and created this plan with several actors that should have ended with me on a plane headed for Japan and at least two years to study, but I needed to get to the interview, that didn't happen and the shock was huge, it made me question a lot of things I believed obvious and facts, suddenly I didn't know why the he'll I was studying Japanese after all, and I was seriously tempted to be assimilated by the Borg and become one of the masses that only want to work as little as possible to come home and kill the rest of the evening watching TV, god knows the stupids lead happier lives, specially the ones that never tried their luck at anything and thus don't know the pains of having dreams and hopes shattered to pieces by jerks that don't know what they're doing, that perhaps by selecting the nerdy kid that has never worked they're shooting at their own feet 'cause he does not really want to.
After that short period of sorrow I decided I would not make plans anymore and try my best to overcome the shortcomings I detected when doing an honest look at my background and that required me getting a new environment, that is why I needed perhaps to get a new work, the one I had had become annoyingly repetitive and boring and monotonous and I had to avoid so many hurdles with stupid regulation and a boss that hated my guts because...well I spoke poorly of him in this very blog, and Google indexing so freaking fast made it appear that time at Japan, but anyways his behavior was really not what one would expect from a Pro, and I did my best to work despite him, I don't believe I was perfect but when I was working I did my best and I felt that at some point they didn't care anymore about giving me more tools to do my work, that was so frustrating and it was not going to improve, that is why I took the chance at sales and I will let you know what happens from this day on.
