So we had to make it a quadruple celebration?

Mood: Sleepy, but in a good mood.
Feeling like: Spending some time in a quiet place, on my own.

So... September 15th came and went... and what did I do that night? I allowed myself to feel nostalgia flowing through my veins as I stared at the fireworks that came after everyone yelled "¡Viva México!" (and after me rolling my eyes in exasperation at some of the local traditions... It is The Independence of Mexico, not of Quintana Roo, people... ah well...).

I did know it was a triple celebration. Besides The Independence Day, here in Mexico, two of my best friends had their birthdays on Sept. 15th. (Um... Javier, Jorge... No need to translate my pseudo-apologies to English, right?)

Anyhoo, I didn't know there was a fourth reason to celebrate... Google's B-day! Yay! It's been ten years since it was born... and very good years, too!

I could go on and on raving about just how amazing my beloved Google is or how much I wish my two dear friends the best of the best, but I think that would bore everyone (even said friends) to death. Which is why I'm gonna abbreviate like this:

[Insert happy dance, fun party and enthusiastic speech to honor Google, Javier, Jorge and México!... and then multiply it by one million.]

I'm off...

I recommend...

Mood: Happy, but not excited.
Feeling like: Writing... and eating :P

OK... so the changes in AWOS have begun! XD

1) The kinda-heading: I won't write Mood, Listening and Reading anymore. I just left Mood and added Feeling like because I thought it was cooler :P What I am listening to will appear at the end of each post, thanks to FoxyTunes =D

2) Hot recommendations: Now I have a recommendations mini-section. Books, Songs, CD's, Movies, Artists, Games, Toys, TV Show, anything I think is worth being recommended, will be listed there =) I thought about naming it "Recommendations of the month" but then I thought "nah... I'll prolly change them whenever I feel like it..." lol.

3) The poll: yep, now I'll have a poll to know your opinion, my dear visitors... please vote and don't forget to comment on posts, too =)

And that's it for now... gotta get back to work...

I'm off...

"Heridas" by Papa Roach

Mood: surprised and impressed.
Listening: Papa Roach - Heridas

Well, well... the things you get to find out in Wikipedia! Turns out that one of my favourite Papa Roach songs exists in a Spanish version and was recorded by... well, them! XD

I was very happy to hear Jacoby Shaddix's voice singing in Spanish and I've got to admit that he's not bad at all. Although the lyrics are sometimes kinda... rushed, so to speak, I'd say it's a very good translation ^_^

But besides finding out about this, today I also discovered an amazing web site called SpanishJamz.com where you can find songs by some artists/groups who usually sing in English, but have also performed some of their songs in Español, like Beyoncé, Madonna, Spice Girls, JoJo, Backstreet Boys, and many more. The "Heridas" lyrics is on that site and here's the link.

Anyway, I'll live you with the "Scars" video, with the "Heridas" audio ;)

"Hola", September!

Mood: sleepy.
Listening: Breaking Benjamin - Firefly
Reading: Cafeteria Confessions, Hey Arnold Fanfiction by Deep Voice [link].

Isn't it amazing and yet awful how fast times goes by? We're officially in the "Mes Patrio" (Note: September is the month in which we, mexicans, celebrate our Independence Day— on the night of the 15-16th) and I've barely even noticed... =S

A few days ago, I reached the conclusion that I need some adjustments on this lil' blog of mine so I'll try to implement them.

Firstly, I'll do my best to keep my entries short, I wouldn't want to bore my readers to death, do I? I'll also try to do some entries from my alter egos' point of view because, ocasionally, they're quite right and they're also pretty funny at times :P And I decided that if I feel like it, I'll post more than one entry a day... um, well, if I feel like it and if I have time for it XD

One more thing I'll try is to change the skin/layout/design of the blog... but I honestly don't know if I'll be able to because I've just started school again and I have no time =(

Anyhoo... I just wanted to say hi to the new month and... well, just post something new to ease my kinda-guilt about kinda-abandoning AWOS.

I'm off...
