  • My high school teacher never liked me and most of the time she ignored me and the times she didn’t, looked at me like I’m a loser.

    I didn’t do very well on the big exams (similar to sat) and after few tears I served in the army, I did some courses to raise my grades.

    These exams happen to be in my high school with all the 12th graders, and so I was sitting there and waiting for the exam to start and then I saw her peaking from the door after years I didn’t see her.

    She got in and called my name with a huge smile on her face saying “I knew I would see you here some day”.

    I’ll never forgot this mean smile and I have to say, this smile really helped me on hard times at the university. It kept me motivated.

    This was 13 years ago and today I have a bs.c. In computer science and working at as technical team lead in a big software company, managing engineers.

    I sometimes remembering this and smile to myself. I don’t think she knows what I’m doing today, but the fact that I know I made it, gives me comfort














  • I generally don’t like meta episodes like the jokes in the show reflects on the real cast and writers. The self awerness usually ruin it for me. R&M did it well with the train episode, but I didn’t like it too much here. Not only that, the entire advertising if Hulu was a bit much.

    I mean the idea is great, they tried to tell us, the audience, that times are changed and the world have changed with all the pc, me too, gender awerness, etc. And showed even a bit of concern. Also that they laugh at themselves with all the reboots and breaks. But I just didn’t like how it was served. I wish it was an interview and not an episode (they laughed about that as well with the "that’s too smart joke) and just write an episode like the know, without being afraid of all the pc and do on.

    It wasn’t bad I still enjoyed it, but as I said it felt to meta and self aware for my taste.

    Any one feels the same?




  • No body knows him but I yesterday I went to the pharmacy and asked the pharmacist where do I get a ticket for the line. Some old guy behind me said its over there, I said thanks and went to get it. When I got back, I saw that the person who answered me was a very famous guy in my country, who hosted talk shows and have multiple gold record from the eighties and now run commercials.

    That was wild to me lol
