Merry Christmas! Feliz Navidad!

22 December 2003

Happy Winter Solstice! Oh, and yeah, my luggage arrived. I have no idea where it was, but now it's with me, yay!

17 December 2003

Got home 6 hours late. Yes, 6 hours. Stupid snow delayed the stupid plane in the stupid State College airport. Stupid delay made me miss my stupid flight in Philadelphia, so I got re-routed through stupid Orlando. But by the time I got to Philadelphia, the flight to Orlando had left already. So I got re-routed again, this time through stupid Fort Lauderdale. Also, through a different airline. I was supposed to get to San Juan at no later than 3pm. I got there at 9pm. And my stupid luggage got lost. Stupid snow. Stupid airlines. I am not a happy traveler right now...

16 December 2003

Tomorrow I'm going home for Winter break! Yayyyy! No snow for three weeks!!!

14 December 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Luisito!

7 December 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Michel! Feliz Cumpleaños, Jesús!

6 December 2003

I added a new page in my Photo Gallery. This new page is titled "Seasons", because it has pictures I took of the trees when they changed color some time ago and also pictures of the snow from the past couple of days... This is my first experience with real seasons, so I will keep taking pictures of the seasonal changes and put them in here...

SNOW!!! It's snowing, it's snowing!!! Oh my god, it's snowing!!! Everything's covered with snow!!! So of course, being the Puertorrican that I am, I have gone crazy taking pictures. I took a LOT of pictures of the snow... Hey, I had not yet experienced the whole "going to bed one day and the next day waking up to snow that fell during the night" thing... It looks really, really pretty :-) ... Some of the pictures I took with my normal, non-digital camera, so I don't know yet how those turned out... And I don't have a digital camera, so... BUT, I do have my camera phone... So I took a whole bunch of pictures of the snow using my phone, and those pictures are already here! So if you want to see what the first snowfall of the season in State College looks like, then go to my Photo Gallery and then look in the page that has the pictures taken with my camera phone...

28 November 2003

The Links Page now has a new format, one that could be considered less confusing than the three-column thing I had before...

20 November 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, María!

19 November 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Glorieli!

18 November 2003

I have discovered how to upload the pictures from my phone into my laptop... Soooo, now I have added a new page to my Photo Gallery full of pictures taken with my camera phone... Ok, it's not THAT full, there are only 8 pictures now, but as I keep taking pictures with my phone I will keep putting them here... BTW, those three or four days of warm temperatures... long gone... Winter's a-coming... Oh, and another thing: soon to come: additions to my Research Page...

3 November 2003

So yeah, we've had about three or four days of teperatures in the 70°F range... Beautiful days, not cold at all, and very nice nights... And it's November! Amazing! I just wish it would stay like this and winter not come at all this year...

2 November 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Tamara!

26 October 2003

Happy Birthday, Justin!

25 October 2003

I put up some pictures of my apartment, so that the people back home who've been wondering what it looks like can finally take a look at it :-) I've also created an "Update Archive", where I will put the updates as they get older, so that this page does not become extremely long.

5 October 2003

Ok, it just keeps getting colder. I can't believe it. Just colder and colder and colder... It actually almost snowed the other day (people here said it was "sleet", but still, frozen water falling from the sky, something I'm really not used to in early October or any other time for that matter)...

27 September 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Angélica!

24 September 2003

So yeah, Fall started yesterday and already today the temperature was in the 50's (°F)... So cold, so very cold...

23 September 2003

Happy Autumnal Equinox!

17 September 2003

So yeah, I am officially in grad school, since I have no free time whatsoever. It's very disturbing when three homeworks converge towards the same due date...

14 September 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Capitán Santana! (aka Carlos) :-)

13 September 2003

Feliz Cumpleaños, Javier!

3 September 2003

Finally! Online! :-) And I've also started grad school this week, so let's see how everything goes... It's been cold here, temperatures in the upper 60's (°F), which is cold, at least for Puertorrican standards... Judy loves it, says "it's just perfect" and that it will definitely get much, much colder...I'm gonna freeze...
