The process of the ending of my life in Belgium is getting closer and closer.... for the people that do not know I am thinking on leaving Belgium, I am tired of leaving here and I am getting to comfortable... I am missing the excitement of being in a new place and discover new places...
For now my plan looks like this: I am leaving Belgium in the middle of September, I will go to Mexico to visit my family and enjoy some holidays there and then I will move to the next step in my life... and that step is to move to ASIA :)
I think that after living in Europe and America the next place I will like to experience is Asia. It is a bit hard to find a job at the moment in Asia (I am trying very hard but without any luck), so my plan is just to go there and establish in a country (the most probable destination is Singapore) and then search for job once I am there. I am getting a lot of contacts there, so that will make the process a bit easier.
I know some people might be thinking that I am crazy but I really want to do this in my life, I am still young and I can do some crazy things... the worst thing that can happen is that I am in Asia and I can not find a job but at least I will travel and discover new countries :) .
Well this is just the tentative plan, I can get a job offer and they might want me to start ASAP so the trip to Mexico might be postponed, but I do not know it is just expectations...
Lets see what will happen in the future... I am not nervous, I am getting excited of the future...
Another weekend passed and again many things happen...
I went to a festival in Gent (very nice experience), I had a great mexican lunch, I had a great goodbye dinner, I went with Michelle to church, I studied for my upcoming exams....
To many things that at the end of the weekend I finish even more tired...
Well now again is Monday and it is time to work....
ps. The picture on this post was one of the stages of the festival in Gent, it was very cool to have the stage just over the river :P
I went to Rotterdam, the main purpose of my trip was to attend the RedBull Air Race... but also this weekend was the traditional AI transition party.
Both events were amazing, it was great to see all the airplaines flying and making all those achrobatics... it is just amazing to see them and also just to listen to the sound of the engines.
The AI transition party was also good, I went only to the Handover party on Saturday night and it was great to see so many old friends :) and catch up with them.
I just heard this speach, it was given by Jim Valvano (a basketball coach) some years ago. He was sick of cancer and he died just a few months after the speach.
Some times you just have dreams of places you will like to be and you can imagine yourself being there... well today I will love to be in New York in order to see the Baseball All Star Game at Yankee stadium.
For the people that is not so familiar with baseball this is the last season that the very famous Yankee stadium will be open, starting next year there will be a new Yankee stadium and the old one will be destroyed. What is special from this stadium is all the history that surounds it, some of the best moments in baseball history happen there...
Well I never lose anything for just dreaming of being there.... and one of my future objectives is to see a game in the New Yankee stadium, it is supposed to be one of the best stadiums in the world.
