Back to reality!

De vuelta a la puta realidad.
Veronique and Olivier left this morning. They still have not arrived in Paris. I will talk to them in the morning when I have my breakfast, and they are ready to go to bed. I still don't get used to the idea of the different times. In a way that makes me be more aware of the shape of the planet. It is not that big, really, if I think about it. It is just a drop in the Universe, and we are nothing and a whole universe at the same time. We are little worlds inside the world.
Today, the temperature is between 5c and -7c. Hace un frio de muerte! I am even thinking of buying thermal underwear, and long sleeves thermolactil t-shirts, soooooo unsexy!. Pero ande yo caliente y riase la gente, tio.I have been postponing that as much as I could.
I have started studying a little bit of Chinese at home. If I do one hour a day, I think I will end up learning something. I can always ask Chen Jun (Charles)and Yihui Meng (Isabelle)for help with the pronunciation and the grammar. I still do not understand why they insist in using western names?!It is as if they did not accept who they are and they have to be someone else. Very Chinese in a way. They reject their past and Chinese old things and at the same time they are very proud of their milenary culture. They destroy old buildings to build them up again brand new!? Se lo coman con patatas, porque yo no lo entiendo. One of those things. I suppose I am also full of incoherences, innit?
