Social me…

Last Updated on 31 December 2008 Written by UrbanVox 3 Comments

Once upon a time I was a VERY shy young boy. How shy? Well, anti-sociably shy (?!?!?).

I used to hate social gatherings, used to hate the attention and having to give attention to others (which can be a real problem when your mother LOVES to entertain). I used to hate parties (I think I blame part of that in my aunt… she dressed as a clown in my 1st birthday party… after that every year I had to look over my shoulder to see if I could find the scary monster with the white face and red nose… hehehe)

Then one day I decided that being shy was nothing more, nothing less than a waste of time!

Yes… I am just random like that: If something sticks to my head then nothing will ever take it out of there, unless a better argument comes up. Once I decided that sleeping was a waste of time… I still partly think that as true… but Vic convinced me that sleeping can ge good some times so… u gotta compromise somewhere…

Well… back to my point: I became a social beast. Wanna go party? Hell yeah! I was first one one in and last one out of the floor (can’t say I can dance… but I would do it anyways)… Luaus at the beach and serenading with a guitar and a group of friends till late night comes were my favorites. All of a sudden I was surrounded by friends and ready for whatever at any time…

Yup I’ve changed from water to wine.

Those were good days… and they went till… well I think till a bit after I got married really… Sure we do go out and do stuff some times… but I can’t stop noticing how old I feel… Specially once I stop to realize the sort of things I am now doing and that more than half the people now doing the things I used to like are… well… half my age!

Does that ever bother you??

Am I back to water??? I surely hope NOT! I still haz got the skillz!!! A bit more refined but still got it!

Jack, KAthia, Marcio, Vic and me @ the Texas Embassy

Jack, Kathia, Marcio, Vic and me @ the Texas Emabassy

And at least I know that some of my friends are a lot “older” than me! lol! We went out to Texas Embassy with Kathia, Jack and Marcio the other day and whilst they all went home right after the Embassy me and Vic were still willing to go dancing!!

Not that we did go dancing as I managed to block my credit card by punching the wrong pin number more than allowed. I was a bit tipsy okay?!?!?!

“Nada me hara mas feliz que dos margaritas!” <- know what I mean?

I had four so I am justified!

Me, Vic and Mr. Hollywood

December was quite a month full of events!!! Right after that it was our (Me and Vic’s) wedding anniversary… so we went to watch Twilight and then to Planet Hollywood!! And guess what? I kinda liked the twilight movie but still no comparison to the book!

Planet Hollywood was great! Loved the fajitas!

Vic liked the blue cow!

we were going to go dancing… we even got VIP treatment and all but we realized that if we did go in we would be in no condition to anything else for the next day (and we had to hit the road early morning)

Now that I think better… we should have gone into the club!!!! :/

Then there was X-mas at the In-Laws and tonite there is new year at ours. The a non stop of events produced by the CWI HUB next year…. so… Thinking it a bit better… maybe I am just as social as I was… just… grown up.

Time to get things ready then… last year we went to the London Eye for the reveillon… but after waiting for 3 hours to get into the train to come back home we decided to go a bit more… low key this year.

We’ll be receiving some friends and family over at the UVN Headquarters… And that’s going to be our new years eve activity…

How about yours???

HAVE A GREAT 2009 FULL OFF ALL THAT’S GOOD!!

May your dreams for the new year all come true!
