By the pool

Saturday. Morning. Chilling at the pool. Am I getting in? I don't know, it's not that hot although it's sunny. Some wind and a palm tree by the pool. We can see some palm leaves floating in the pool. Two plastic laying down chairs, with 2 pairs of flip flops close to them . Surf shorts, colored towels and she is wearing a bikini. Cool sun glasses. Feeling calm, chill. She has the right fit, in terms of emotion, attitude, as a person and body. Her tone calms me down, helps to relax and gives that 'I don't wanna leave' feeling. Her toe nails are painted white or another light color. She is tanned, but just a little. I feel a sweet scent, probably her lotion. Some music is playing, I can't remember the name of the song, but it fits very well in this moment. There is nothing to worry about, nothing. Is time passing by slowly? That leaf took 3 minutes to reach the ground after it fell out of that tree. Well, I guess this morning will never end, we will just stay here.

The Journalist - Getting back up again


Ok, so the title of this blog is "Never Down and Out". I was out, and yes longer than one year. So sorry computer, let's get back up again.

I just gave a quick look thru all my posts and something called my attention.
"Never Down and Out" comes from a song played by a band called "The Academy is". But hey, look:  the funny thing is that the chords for this song go like this, "always up and down, never down and out!". You can easily see how I was oscillating between up and down in posts the last years. There were some days that I was up, so I wrote positive things. Other days I was a little blue, so down and sad/desesperate things came out of my fingertips.

Before further due, let's get down to it. (not down-down, it's just a expression, ok? this is a up post by the way).

Today I met a Journalist. And she is the responsible that I'm here, writing this post . Of course this person is a she, what do you think? This girl writing is so amazing that made me wanna write some things on my own. I don't have anything specific to write -so this post will probably end in the next 30 letters - but I just felt like writing again, and here I am.

I'll keep you posted on how things are going,
Regards,

Gabriel

Eu já postei a letra da música do título do blog?
Acho que ainda não... Ou já?

Eles são de Wheeling, IL. 15 minutos de Glenview, onde eu morei. Sempre colocava The Academy Is quando eu ia pro Hawthorn ou pro Gurnee Mills. Yeah, I did a lot shopping there.
Here it goes...


Always up or down, never down and out.
Dream of demons while you sleep that make you stutter when you speak.
Speak now or forever hold your peace in pieces.

Now that I'm grown I've seen marriages fall to pieces.
Now that I'm grown I've seen friendships fall to pieces.
Weekend warriors, and our best friends.
The writers weren't kidding about how all good things must end.
Then again some things, then again some things are far too good,
Some things are far too good to go ahead and let go.






True dude. True story

Facebook just asked me: what's in my mind?
 I'll answer then:
"Breaking new ground". It's always awesome.
It can be learning a new skateboard trick, a new song on the guitar, or getting to know someone you know you  will like a lot.

and maybe, just maybe I might have a heart again.
do you know what is weird? the cold weather usually melts it...

winter is always a good time to start things up. actually, I think it's better than the summer.
