The ant nest

We spend days looking at those ants nibbling away mixing moving arranging and fixing those layers of soil, always moving never stopping always trying to escape yet living in a closed world which they cannot escape from a world which they have no hope of ever existing until one day one of them accidentally makes it out and realities that he and all his brothers and sisters all his family friends and all those who he know they were trapped yet they didn't know they were all living their life with their own little problems but not realizing that they were doomed and closed from the bigger much more beautiful world outside so he goes back in and tells everyone about it about the amazing beautiful world that exists.

The sad part. No one listens to him.

No one understands what he wants to say and they all igore him, and this the an becomes sad living while making a desition to either stay or to go, either way he will lose something, he will lose those around him, or the chance to see a greater world and live like he never imagined.

Rambling

Hiiiii,

How are you all? Good? Feeling Fat? Disgusting?

Well don't XD you had some of the best food you could have all year long, granted the energetic value is probably equivalent to a yea of food and munching. At least for myself, I started eating at 10 am stopped eating at around 7-8pm took an hours break at 9:30 I had a gorgeously large slice of amazing ness called cake.

But that was yesterday, what is today? Today is yet an other amazing day of awesome! Yes it is, well I am writing this ( what I'm getting to the point in the second paragraph tztz OnK on second)

Third paragraph it is, and yes I am writing this because I am on the ferry and the jolly molly feeling there is here is amazing ( granted the water is a tad bit wavy, must still be drunk from yesterdays festivities) OK that was lame but it's staying.

OK focus young one focus. People happy talking almost singing, boat a swaying and now I'm just rambling.

Anyway what do I want to say!

Hope you had the Merriest of Christmases,
And wish you the most enjoyable hangovers these holidays!

Christmas!!!!

It's Santa,
He's coming,
Rushing though the snow they said,
Bringing gifts they said,

But what truly comes is the magic,
One of the few times,
That we all say,
A lie,
As white as virgin snow,

But this magic never,
Brings gifts,
Brings flying reindeer,
Brings magical beasts of an other world

But this magic does bring,
Unity,
Love,
Truces,
Breaks from war,
Breaks from work,
Peace and reconciliation,

It's not a religious feast,
No,
This is a spiritual day,

So let's all prepare for the massive feasts,
The long time with our insufferable families,
The boring and useless gifts,
The drunk uncles and dads,
The drinking of conspicuous amounts of whisky.

Let's all enjoy Christmas!!!!

A happy merry merry Christmas to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fire

Small and fickle,
Hungry for more.

Fed with:
Leaves,
Wood,
And petroleum.

Burning strong,
Burning bright,

Yet the hunger is never,
Sated,
Gone,
Satisfied...

Yearning for more,
Sending shards,
Embers fly into the night,

Landing everywhere,
Burning for an instant,
Then dieing out.

Yet the fire burns,
Strong and bright.
Dancing over,

Trying to escape,
Trying to run,
Trying to explore.

No matter how much,
No matter how many,
The fuel never was enough.

Then the wind came,
The wind bought the rain,
The rain fought the fire.
The fire lost its flame.
The flame thus lost its appetite.

And then the fire went to sleep,
Yet,
Small,
Slumbering,
Ambers,
Ready,
Waiting.

To burst out once more,
To burn yet again,
Bright and strong,
To dance,
To burn.

Dream

Time is all we have, and time is all we base our lives on,
yet sleeping, something that is the most
worthless

takes the most time of all of our lives
we sleep for a third of our life,
we spend time with our eyes closed,
we spend time with our brains allowed to grow,

we spend time to dream...
what is this dreaming,

dreaming is the most beautiful thing,
yet reality is the scariest thing of all,

reality is what kills dreams,
reality is what makes us hate sleeping,
reality is what makes us hate dreaming and calling them nightmares,

what is the real nightmare,
that is waking up,
that is having to stop dreaming,
that is my worst nightmare.

What do I do about it!
I dream while I am awake, I dream of what I am,
what I can do,
I dream of what I want to do.

But most of all,
I dream of dreaming,

Friends.

We will drink,
we will drink to remember.

We will drink,
we will drink to forget.

We will drink,
we will drink to make new memories.

We will drink,
we will drink so that we can live.

We will drink,
we will drink for each other.

We will drink,
we will drink with each other.

We will drink,
we will drink far or near.

We will drink
we will drink for friends, brothers.

and now I drink to you!
And together we send cheers to ALL!



Note:

This is dedicated to all my old friends, and to all my new friends and those that I will yet have to meet, this is dedicated to all those who I went though thick and thin with, but specially to a group of people who have been there for as long as I can remember, and to you right now I raise my glass and I drink to your good health!

The deepest ocean.

The deepest ocean, this isn't found where you are expecting it to be. No this is not something tangible or something physical. It is not something that many think it is and use. This deepest of  oceans is the internet.

It is the amazing space where anyone and everyone can put what they know, what they love and what they care about. They put their 'life hacks', case in point a year ago while looking for a job, online. I found one which stated :  Write ten life hacks and explain them and we pay you 150 euros upfront.  Our experience is recorded stored and saved on this massive data base a cloud, that once anything is on there it is very hard to remove. Yet, we often restrict our self's, me included to the first 2-3 pages of Google, if not the very first search that comes up. We often do not even dare to go and see the 2-100 million more results what they can offer and what they have in store for us.

I read an article recently saying how the writer of the blog, which promotes starting companies and initiatives, He mentioned the fact that so many amazing start ups have no chance to start, because they never are able to get to the top, as the top have monopoly over our attention.

In fact we cannot even access some of them as Google censors them according to who pays it money to be the high light. Or according to what is used the most. ( tells you a great deal about Wikipedia and how many desperate students resort to such measures)

http://www.ebizmba.com/articles/most-popular-websites

This site shows us the views of which sites we visit and how many times we visit them, and I am sure you use a fraction more different websites then these mentioned. For anything else opened its though links of highly liked statuses and posts from famous people who influences 200-1000000 million people to look at someone.

I must say myself I post here, my thoughts my ideas my stories and my personality. Some people told me it is as if I know you and have known you for a long time. However why do we still have people saying, I am sorry but I don't know how to use that! I am sorry but what is Google drive? I am sorry what are Google docs? I am sorry but what is video chat? I am sorry what is live streaming?

I was told by a close friend of mine, and I love him to bits, but he told me: "Alex not everyone is like you, not everyone knows how to use computers like you."

To that I will tell you, I learnt everything by trying, I learnt everything by watching others doing something and asking. I ask Google daily, how do I draw a graph, how do I use excel ( people using massive statistical analysis please give me an alternative I would love you for ever)

The point is, my basis in being able to interact with computers is minimal and archaic compared with some people I know who are computer, tech wizards. Unlike these tech wizards, to be able to use and maximize you experience from this giant pool of knowledge of experience and just plain amazing opportunities is very easy..

All you need is to understand, there is more to the internet then just the same few sites everyone uses. I, as a number of you know, have a thing to have 40-80 tabs or so open at the same time when I'm working on my laptop (granted 20-30 of them are from Facebook) , when I am gaming or even just watching a film. I highly suggest you learn how to use different sites at once, of course granted you have the RAM for it.

Anyhow, I have rambled and jumped from point to point. Saying many things and yes saying nothing at all, but I will say is this, use and integrate internet, and its million and one uses in your life.

Canteen: The Pea Soup!

A pleasant surprise, very pleasant and tasty surprise from canteen. It came in the form of a nice small bowl of green tasty and yummy, not to mention heart warming and filling soup.

The moment I saw this massive vat, the first thing I thought was. Yay mulled wine, ( you know since its the start of December, and I expected the canteen to capitalize on that) (PS please do I want to get drunk on campus with wine) anyhow beside the point. I was so much happier to find this filling and cheap soup.

Very pleased I marched out of the canteen with a bowl of soup and a doughnut. I must say, to my earlier comment about the canteen. It is still a very expensive place to eat. Very expansive for students, however they toned the prices down after they tool their tie to meet around 40 students who showed up. The coffee and the pastizzi went down in price (pastizzi very important) and the service is still one of the best served around.

So all in all I must congratulate the canteen on their improvements and for listening to their client's. I must also say, I will be returning to look for more soups very soon. Maybe a nice cabbage and bacon or some French onion soup. Or a simple good old minestrone.

I do wonder what else they have in mind!
