Silicon Island

0x19

Today I'm turning 0x19, it sounds so much better in hex (however in octal is pretty scary). I had a delightful party on Saturday where pretty much all of my friends in Dublin showed up.

In addition, tomorrow will make my second year in Dublin and Sun Microsystems. Specially this last year has been remarkable, one of the best years of my life for a variety of reasons, moving with Carlos, Luis and Adrian has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. Sadly, Carlos will leave soon, and Luis and myself will have to split and find a place for each other given how low the demand for houses is in Ireland this days (we can't fill the place with two new house mates at a time).

Anyway I just hope this year is at least a half as good as the previous one.

New York was great. I'm not so.

I think it's time to get back at blogging.

It's been almost two weeks since I came back from New York, lovely city, people were actually quite easy going and charming there, a pretty good first impression of the US citizens, I wonder why people from the states usually talk about NYC people as very stressed and not so easy going. I guess it's the same reason people from Madrid have the same reputation among the other Spaniards. I will post my photos soon... ish.

However the coming back have not been so pleasant, I've been sick during the last week, actually quite badly and I'm still trying to recover and during this week my insomnia problems are striking back, so I'm still a bit fuzzy and unable to concentrate on pretty much anything which is kind of frustrating when it happens for so long.

All this makes the fact that I'm turning 25 next Monday a little more depressing, so this is it? am I getting old? is this what it feels like?
