Did you ever fall in love?

I'm not in love. Falling in love is horrible, isn't it? It makes me so vulnerable. It opens my chest and it opens up my heart and it means that someone can get inside me and mess me up. I build all these defenses, I build up a whole suit of armor, I build an unbreakable wall so that nothing can hurt me, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid guy, wanders into my stupid life.. I give him a piece of me, though he didn't ask for it. He did something dumb one day, like kiss me or smile at me..oh I still remember that day.. and then my life isn't my own anymore.

You're all smiles and silly conversation
As if this sunny day came just for you
You twist your hair, you smile, and you turn your eyes away
C'mon, tell me what's right with you
Now it dawns on me probably everybody's talkin'
And there's something here I'm supposed to realize
‘Cause your secret's out, and the universe laughs at its joke on me
I just caught it in your eyes, it's a beautiful surprise

When did you fall in love with me?
Was it out of the blue
‘Cause I swear I never knew it
When did you let your heart run free?
Have you been waiting long?
When did you fall in love with me?
When did you fall in love?

Make your way over here, sit down by this fool, and let's rewind
C'mon, let's go back and replay all our scenes
You can point out the hints, the clues, the twists and the smiles this time
All the ones that slipped by me
I bet my face is red, and you can hear my heart poundin'
Well I guess it don't matter now that I realize
‘Cause baby I missed it then, but I can surely see you now
Right here before my eyes
You're my beautiful surprise

When did you fall in love with me?
Was it out of the blue
‘Cause I swear I never knew it
When did you let your heart run free?
Have you been waiting long?
When did you fall in love with me?
When did you fall in love?

Was it at the coffee shop
Or that morning at the bus stop
When you almost slipped, and I caught your hand
Or the time we built the snowman
The day at the beach, sandy and warm
Or the night with the scary thunderstorm
I never saw the signs
Now we've got to make up for lost time
And I can tell now by the way that you're looking at me
I'd better finish this song so my lips will be free

Have you been waiting long, when did you fall in love
I kept you waiting so long, when did you fall
Have you been waiting long
When did you fall in love with me
When did you fall in love?

Cochinillos al poder!

El fin de semana hice un "mini" viaje. Me fui a un pueblo de Castilla y Leon. Nunca habia estado antes, y la verdad, no tiene nada que ver con las grandes ciudades  como Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia donde la gente va muy estresada corriendo arriba y abajo, pegandose empujones por subir en el metro y todas esas cosas que a todos nos estresan y nos ponen de mal humor sobretodo si es Lunes.

San Lorenzo, un pequeño pueblo perdido en la Comunidad Autonoma de Castilla y Leon. No creo que tenga mas de 1000 habitantes, porque recorrimos todo el pueblo en menos de 5 horas. La mayoria eran abuelos, por lo que vi no habia mucho movimiento, ni tampoco mucha juerga. La mayoria de edicicios permanecian intactas, tal como era en el S. XV creo.
Calles al estilo romanico, comercios pequeños, pero no te creas habia Bershka y Pull and Bear en una de las calles principales.

La gente muy tranquila, habian un par de turistas como yo, ah! y como no tambien vi japoneses. Estos vecinos mios asiaticos estan en todas partes!


Eran las fiestas de San Lorenzo,mis amigas del trabajo y yo  fuimos expresamente hasta alli para ir a ver estas fiestas. Todo iba bien. Cogimos el tren a primera hora, llegamos al hotel, descansamos un par de horas. Nuestro plan era, comer como lobas, ver la corrida de todos y al final del dia quedarnos para ver los fuegos artificiales.

Todo quedo en un segundo plano, cuando a mi me dio un dolor de estomago por la mañana despues de comer cochinillo. No habia ni una farmacia abierta. Se ve que cerraban para hacer la siesta! Y la farmacia de guardia se encontraba en otro pueblo en El Carmen a 20 minutos en coche! Ojala hicieramos lo mismo en Barcelona. Asi que mientras mis amigas se iban al pueblo a divertirse yo me quede en la habitacion retorciendome de dolor hasta quedarme dormida por completo.


No se cuanto rato paso cuando  desperte pero ya era tarde, era la hora de cenar! Desperdicie un dia entero en la cama!! Creo que pase mas tiempo en la cama que paseando por las calles de San Lorenzo. Maldito dolor de estomago!  Para la proxima vez me llevare, un Almax e Ibuprofenos a saco, no sea que no hayan farmacias abiertas.


Tengo planes de hacer el Camino de Santiago. Alguien lo ha hecho? Algun consejo?

Despierta!! Abre los ojos!!

Solia escuchar esta cancion antes de dormir.. Asi que aqui la teneis! Para aquellos cegatos o prefieren hacer la vista gorda!! Para los que no quieren ver la realidad o simplemente pasan de largo.. Despierta o se te va a pasar el arroz!!



Take time to realize,
That your worth is
Crashing down on in.
Take time to realize,
That I am on your side
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.


But I can't spell it out for you,
No, it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you.
If you just realized what I've just realized,
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'll never find another
Just realized what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other now.


Take time to realize
I'm on your side
Didn't I, didn't I tell you.
Take time to realize
That this all can pass by
Didn't I tell you.


But I can't spell it out for you,
No it's never gonna be that simple
But I can't spell it out for you.


If you just realized what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realized what I've just realized
We'd never have to wonder if
We missed out on each other but.


It's not that the same
No it's never the same
If you don't feel it too.
If you meet me half way
If you'd meet me half way.
It could be the same for you.


If you just realize what I just realized
Then we'd be perfect for each other
And we'd never find another
Just realize what I just realized
We'd never have to wonder now.


Just realized what I just realized
If you just realize what I just realized.


Missed out on each other now
Missed out on each other now


Realize,realize
Realize,realize.
