When you’re on a holiday
You can’t find the words to say
All the things that come to you
And I wanna feel it too

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

hip hip
hip hip

When you’re on a golden sea
You don’t need no memory
Just a place to call your own
As we drift into the zone

On an island in the sun
We’ll be playing and having fun
And it makes me feel so fine
I can’t control my brain

We’ll run away together
We’ll spend some time forever
We’ll never feel bad anymore

Ben Harper - She’s Only Happy in the Sun

“She’s Only Happy In The Sun”I know you may not want to see me
On your way down from the clouds
Would you hear me if I told you
That my heart is with you nowShe’s only happy in the sun
She’s only happy in the sun

Did you find what you were after?
The pain and the laughter brought you to your knees
But if the sun sets you free, sets you free
You’ll be free indeed, Indeed

She’s only happy in the sun
She’s only happy in the sun

Every time I hear you laughing, I hear you laughing
It makes me cry
Like the story of life, of your life
Is hello, goodbye

Shes only happy in the sun
Shes only happy in the sun

As the time far away from home passes I see myself facing my identity in different ways. My country is not what it was when I first left, neither am I. Hatred became understanding, days became months, smiles became doubts, words became warriors. How can fully understanding of a person from a different background ever happen? Why are some of us still trying? Para los castellano hablantes, hasta aquí ha llegado mi entendimiento de castellano hoy (and i literally quote): ” berenjena y esparadrapo son las palabras más españolas”. Y hasta ahí puedo leer, aunque sepa donde están mis raices no me interesan ni me llenan, sólo me atan a una ciudad en la que yo sólo soy un ser automático. Si ser bilingüe activa diferentes secciones del cerebro hasta hacernos más ágiles en ciertos aspectos, adquirir o aceptar diferentes culturas nos hace avanzar como personas. Y sí, todos lo sabiamos ya, pero quería dejarlo claro. Sea de donde sea, me sienta como me sienta sobre ello soy mis circunstancias y como el mundo me va tratando.

The War Sonnets: V. The Soldier
If I should die, think only this of me:
That there’s some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam,
A body of England’s, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.

And think, this heart, all evil shed away,
A pulse in the eternal mind, no less
Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given;
Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day;
And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness,
In hearts at peace, under an English heaven

the flowing tears
of the black prostitute,
clear – like mine!

(José Juan Tablada – 1922)

As my anger ebbs,
The spring stars grow bright again
And the wind returns.

737

In the summer sun,
Near an empty whiskey bottle,
A sleeping serpent.

Empty autumn sky:
The bright circus tents have gone,
Taking their music.

Your Heart is An Empty Room - Death Cab for Cutie

Find Love - Clem Snide 

Everybody Is Gotta Learn Sometime - Beck 

Somehow all of us have read, seen or heard about The Apprentice. For those that arent familiar with it, it could be described as the one hour on tv when a bunch of superstars in business terms try to win the other bunch of super amazing business people. This, of course, is achieved by the Malcolm X attitude “by any means at all”.

So, I question myself and my morals. I did not support the Irak war, I do not approve of the harsh approach, I do not believe in the authoritarian figures, but even so I truly enjoy seeing Sir Alan Sugar being above good and evil. Am I just one of those fake people we can all think of? If i think about it I can come up with at least 10 people with the go-get-it mind set, but I never thought of myself as a hypocrite saying no to it and then promoting it on tv.

Being in my 20s is far more interesting than expected, getting to know myself and how controversial most of the things in life are is teaching me not to judge.

I apologize to you for having judged you, I had no right.
