I just came from New Altata, I went there because today is the day when Mexicans celebrate mothers, yes… Mother’s days… we had lunch there and we spent some hours in the beach club. It was, as I use to say, not bad.
Today I started feeling the hot weather. It feels like a hang over, I mean, dehydrated… the thing is that I didn’t drink any kind of alcohol yesterday, I guess is because of the hot weather … -missing Swedish-freshness :P-…
Oh yeah … tomorrow I will deliver a project and then my student life will be over… I will have a dinner next Thursday with all of the alumnae (graduates) during this dinner I will be in charge of saying some stuff as the one that will be representing guys from information systems school. I would like to say some funny things but as you maybe have realized I’m not that funny guy, at least I will try.
The day after the dinner, in the morning, I will have an event where we receive the degree from the chancellor (president) of the university, the same day after this, we’ll be celebrating in a party; on Saturday we have to plans to go camping to the beach and hopefully on Sunday I will be in an other fest.
So these means this week will be the party week :D… Cool
Well… check the news next Sunday, cheers!

Time to Write Again
I don’t accept myself when I don’t write on my blog because of the lack of time. When I started with this I promised myself keep writing every Sunday but like most of the times, urgent things superimpose important things.
Your know what?, I feel that I haven’t done anything important during these weeks that I haven’t written… yes… I’ve been pretty busy with project and stuff like that specially one the development of a system about a point-of-sale/inventory for a Retail store.
As you maybe know, the next, is my last week as a university student… I have this feeling again that I had when I was leaving Sweden; I don’t realized that I’m finishing my undergraduate studies and I feel that I’m gonna continue with this next semester, even thought I’ve been looking for jobs and I’ve made few interviews.
Now I remember that last week wasn’t that bad… I received the grades from two exams, the EGEL, which is an independent examination that evaluated the whole studies… damn… I got a great score… I was surprised and of course very happy, I know this is not that significant but at least I know that my knowledge is not shit J. I got my toefl score as well… I did it better that the last time anyway I need to do it better next time.
Finally I wanna tell you that next week is my last week as student. Now that I’m reflecting I sure I will miss my student days … I would say that my years as a student were very interesting, rewarding as well as challenging… it doesn’t mean that I won’t be student again, I have plans to continue learning and studying hopefully abroad…
For that moment I want to say: enjoy your student life.

Cool Week
This last week was very interesting; my birthday was on Tuesday, I had a meeting with the president of the university, I was part of an entrepreneur lecture and I flew to a Mexico City.
Let me start with my birthday. In the morning I had a class a 7 am, shit…, very early so I had to wake up at 5:30 am, to take a shower and dress up. I went to the uni and I got there a bit late but I didn’t miss the attendance, just when I came into the class room everybody wished me a happy birthday and stuff, after the class some friends and me went to have breakfast. At 9:30 am we were invited to be in a meeting with the president of the university because he was coming from Monterrey. He talked about the challenges of the new graduates and told us some practical thing for getting a job easily; the conference was quite interesting with lots of tips…
During lunch time my mother, sister and I went to a restaurant. I haven’t been there before, but now I can confess that food was very good. Unfortunally I had a class at 3 pm so we couldn’t stay more time in the restaurant.
Just after the class we came to my house and I replay some facebook posts as you maybe realized and I start getting ready for a small birthday party in my house. I bought some beer and I had some whisky and vodka but we couldn’t drink a lot cuz most of the people had classes the next day. There are some pics online, check them out… http://picasaweb.google.com/ochand/20080401CumpleaOs23
On Thursday I was invited to participate in the Lecture called: “Entrepreneurship, Opportunity & Managing Growing Business” by Dennis Ceru from Babson College. It was fairly interesting even thought it was specially focus of business ideas creation.
Finally, last Friday some friends and I went to Mexico City to an employment fair. I got up very early, 4:30 am, cuz the aircraft was leaving at 7 am, we landed in Mexico around 9:50 am and we took a fu&#ng expensive taxi, it was 430 mexican pesos, this is around 30 euros… but divided by 5 it was okay.
In the fair there were around 50 companies receiving résumés I left like 16 in different firms but most of them told me that they’ll check my CV and if I match with the profile they will call me… I hope to receive some calls J … lol… http://picasaweb.google.com/ochand/20080404EmpleatecSantaFe
Around 2 pm we left Santa Fe taking an another taxi, much less expensive than the first one, to Coyacan. We had lunch there and we went sightseeing for some hours and than took to the metro to the airport. We came back to Culiacan around 10:00 pm and we were very very tired.
Active week, don’t your thing so?...
Have an active week, bye.

Turning Older
I already have one birthday present, of course, I’m not expecting more than 2 or 3 but this one that I already have; a Motorola MotoMing one of the less expensive smartphones existing in the market. I feel like a kid in Christmas with new toys and stuff… however I will try to be more professional and definitely I have to learn lot of new thing for, you know, take advantage of all the features it has.
On other hand, I made a 12-hour-exam last Friday and Saturday, shit, it was exhausting. I’m just expect pass it, I guess I will get the grade in around 1 month.
And finally, cause I’m sleepy, I’m turning 23 next Tuesday, seem that I won’t do anything to celebrate it but of course I will be very happy receiving SMSs, e-mail, call phones and hugs :p… this day is gonna be a very impressing day.
Wish me a happy birthday!

Vacation at the Beach
The holydays are over and is time to continue with the last part of my so called student life. But let my relate you what I did this weekend.
The gang (some friends) were, since Wednesday and Thursday in El Tetuán Viejo… please don’t think that I’m talking about the city in the north of Morocco, believe me that would be much more interesting. Well, this beach is a swamp , … damn I don’t if I’m using the correct term for this, help me!... but your know it doesn’t have waves and the water is soother; ...Yes, I left my home this Saturday around 5 pm by my car, the journey took me around 40 minutes we have a 2 lanes motorway so the traffic is not like it used to be before.
I got there around 6 pm and I called one friend who told me about the broken car in which they were moving around so my car was very useful. After that we when to Omar’s home cuz they wanted to start getting ready to go out, finally we decided to spend the whole night in Altlata (the old one) therefore we met in el Cheto’s house (another friend that has a house in old Altata) and we drove along the main road where many people make street party, this means, they use to play music loudly or with live group playing and singing ‘banda’ and of course people dancing on the road and a lot of these four-wheel-motorcycle.

When we were fed up of being there we made a bonfire and we chatted and drank some beers until the sunrise, we came to El Tetún again to sleep for few hours because I was asked to take my friend to the place where we left the car, this was about midday on Sunday, then we waited until the breakdown van came and took the car to Culiacán. Just after that, we wanted to eat so we went to old Altata and I ate a great ‘Coctel de Camarón’, this is shrimp in its own stock with cucumber, onion and sometime tomato, served cold in a glass like this one on the left; I love this when I get hangover… yes I got some :p…Finally we came back, I took my friends with my car…
By the way, Altata is well know for having one of the Best Sunset of the World… damn… they are really astonish… look at the pics … wow… and also, there is a New Altata and is a great project where they have house on sale and is very modern, check out the webpage http://www.nuevoaltata.net/e/index.html and the map to locate Altata is here http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=es&geocode=&q=altata+sinaloa&sll=24.824135,-107.431909&sspn=0.009932,0.019956&ie=UTF8&ll=24.612063,-107.329559&spn=0.636745,1.277161&t=h&z=10

2nd. Round
Almost Easter… during this time I have a holyday-week but just before this I start the second part of my exams this coming week. Nevertheless, I did some project checks last Tuesday and I got frustrated because I was very motivated and I was feeling so free to do and change but I shocked when the teacher told us that the development process was shit… come on!... it’s not I methodology that I made up, it was created by IBM and it’s one of the most robust process to develop software. However I neither have the experience nor the knowledge to use it in risky real world project.
On the other hand, on Wednesday I went to the theater to watch some of the students of the university performing a something called ‘back to the 80’s’, it was nice, I had fun watching how talented people is when they’re very well leaded and when they have the commitment to make things happen http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=6622449981 … I think that I’ve always wanted to be in a play, I remember that I used to take some drama lessons while I was a child but know its one of the things that I really would like to do.
As I mention in the first paragraph I have exams next week I hope to take advantage of my time to distribute my time and stuff…
Well I was nice to write again.
