Moving to....

Nashville next month of May :( ..... probably

My mom has an incredible taste in music

So I was having a conversation with her about music and i asked her what she liked and she pretty much said, "I love Oasis because you boys love them, I enjoy Nirvana cause they bring good memories of when I drove you to school, I like Coldplay because they are mellow but my favorite are The Strokes!!! When are they coming up with a new album???" Obviously, the conversation was in Spanish since she can't speak English. I was like, what the fuck have I done to my mom?? Funny thing is that if I would go back to my High School years, those were the only four bands I would listen to when she gave me rides to school. haha!!! Supposively, she wants tickets for the next time The Strokes come to town.

Since she cant speak English, when she sings the lyrics to songs she makes up words to sound like to the ones in the song, haha. its fuckin hilarious.


what a cool lady

Interview in Connecticut

So the interview:

Arrived to LaGuardia at Queens. Had a fuckin driver picked me up!!! Yes!! A driver!! I was that important...for a day. Anyways, he drove me to Danbury, CT and dropped me off at the hotel. Then I forgot to tip him, lol. That night we went to Ishiros, one of those Japanese places where they cook in front of you. As I looked at the menu I see a steak that I want, it was $30!!! So I said, "shit no, thats too much." But then I looked at the rest of the menu and turns out that was one of the cheapest things on it. So I got it. Fuckin nice and FREE. I sat next to Vanjia, the lady who will or will not hire me. So dinner was nice. I met all the other interviewees and they mostly suck. I was great, they sucked. I reviewed my power point presentation that night and then I laid and watched tv until midnight. I laid in bed for 2 hrs!! Not fuckin kidding!! I was super anxious and just wanting to be done. I set my alarm at 7am but woke up at 5:45am!!! Totally not me. I was more anxious than nervous, fuckin hate interviews.

Anyways, so I went to my interview. Arrived fifteen minutes earlier than the thirty minutes early that I was suppose to arrive. So, that was good. They were going to interview a total of ten people and they separated us in three sets which lasted two hours each. First group was I, the earlier one and there were three of us. The interview started with a presentation from them about the job. Then, they kicked off the two other candidates and I stayed there with 15 people from the company, 13 girls and 2 guys. Anyways, I nailed the presentation!!! I mean, I was fuckin good!! Didn't stuttered, didn't say "hhhmm" maybe a few times but not many. What im trying to say is that I fuckin shined in that room. I was making eye contact with all of them and they were enamoured with me... I mean, the girls.... how couldnt they.

After us three were done with the presentations about "How are you the best candidate for the job" the actual interviews started. They were mostly psychological questions where they would ask you, "Have you ever been in a situation where...." and like a million of those questions. I thought I did really well. At the end of the interview I was told that they would let me know by the end of this week or would call me to tell me to wait another week.

That day once in NYC, I called Kurt, who is the one who got me the interview. He called his ex roommate, who was part of the interviews... not a decision maker though. Dan was a bit afraid of telling Kurt information since he knew that Kurt would tell me about their conversation. So this is pretty much what Dan said according to Kurt, "Jesus did very well. Everyone liked him. They eliminated five candidates out of the ten and Jesus is one of the survivors. But it can go either way with him depending on the ten coming next week. We are only hiring 6 out of the 21 being interviewed. "

So I guess that was good news and bad news. I thought they were going to hire at least twelve but theyre only hiring six!! Fuck me!! I am nervous, I do see myself getting the job because I think I am perfect for it. The problem is that there are many people being interviewed with a Masters degree but I believe that they are over qualified and hopefully will decline the job... even though these days everyone is putting their hands in whatever they can get.


So cross your fingers for me or pray for me if you are religious or send me good vibes or whatever works these days.

Morrissey

A tribute to the best lyricist of all time!!!!

p.s. IM GOING TO SEE HIM TOMORROOOOOOOOOW!!!!


The best lyricist to ever live


"I haven't had a dream in a long time, see the life that I had could make a good man turn bad so please please please let me get what I want this time, lord knows it would be the first time"- Morrissey/The Smiths

"So we go outside and we gravely read the stones, all those people all those lives where are they now?? and with the love and passions just like mine they were born then they lived and then they died..... seems so unfair, I want to cry"- Morrissey/The Smiths

"I don't dream about anyone except myself"

"And if a double-decker bus
crashes in to us
to die by your side
is such a heavenly way to die
and if a ten ton truck
kills the both of us
to die by your side
well the pleasure, the privilege is mine"

"I can surely rely on you
and yet you start to recoil
heavy words are so lightly thrown
but I'd still leap in front of a flying bullet for you
so what difference does it make?
it makes none, but now you have gone
and you must be looking very old tonight

I stole and I lied, and why? because you asked me to
but now you make me feel so ashamed
because I've only got two hands
well, I'm still fond of you
But no more apologies
no more apologies
I'm too tired, I'm so very tired
and I'm feeling very sick and ill today
but I'm still fond of you"

"Oh the alcoholic afternoons
when we sat in your room
they meant more to me than any
than any living thing on earth
Vivid and in your prime
you will leave me behind"

"I am human and I need to be loved
just like everybody else does"

"There's a club if you'd like to go
you could meet somebody who really loves you
so you go, and you stand on your own
and you leave on your own
and you go home, and you cry
and you want to die"

"When you say it's gonna happen "now"
well, when exactly do you mean?
see I've already waited too long
and all my hope is gone"

"Let me get my hands
on your mammary glands
and let me get your head
on the conjugal bed"

"No it's NOT like any other love
this one's different because it's us!
If they dare touch a hair on your head
I'll fight to the last breath
The good life is out there somewhere
so stay on my arm, you little charmer
But I know my luck too well
yes, I know my luck too well
and I'll probably never see you again"

"ask me why and I'll spit in your eye"

"Does the body rule the mind
or does the mind rule the body?
I dunno..."

"for there are brighter sides to life
and I should know because I've seen them
but not very often"

"Two lovers entwined pass me by
and heaven knows I'm miserable now"

"In my life
why do I give valuable time
to people who don't care if I live or die"

"In my life
why do I smile
at people who I'd much rather kick in the eye"

"she took away your troubles
oh but then again she left pain
so please save your life
because you've only got one"

"I've seen you smile
but I've never really heard you laugh"

"but I don't want a lover
I just want to be seen
in the back of your car"

"Others conquered love - but I ran
I sat in my room and I drew up a plan
but plans can fall through as so often they do
and time is against me now"

"She says:
"He never really looks at me
I give him every opportunity
in the room downstairs
he sat and stared
in the room downstairs
he sat and stared
I'll never make that mistake again!"

Boy afraid
prudence never pays
and everything she wants costs money

"But she doesn't even LIKE me!
and I know because she said so
in the room downstairs
she sat and stared
in the room downstairs
she sat and stared
I'll never make that mistake again!""

"and you never knew
how much I really liked you
because I never even told you
oh, but I meant to"

"I still love you, oh I still love you
...only slightly less than I used to my love"

"Oh, so I drank one
or was it four
and when I fell on the floor...
...I drank more"

"Last night I dreamt
that somebody loved me
no hope - but no harm
just another false alarm
Last night I felt
real arms around me
no hope - no harm
just another false alarm"

"so, tell me how long
before the last one?
and tell me how long
before the right one?"

"I've come to wish you an unhappy birthday
becasue you're evil
and you lie
and if you should die
I may feel slightly sad
But I won't cry"


"Ooh, but don't mention love
I'd hate the strain of the pain again"

"and people who are uglier than you and I
they take what they need, and leave"

"I started something
I forced you into a zone
and you were clearly
never meant to go

typical me, typical me typical me
I started something
...and now I'm not too sure"

"Love, peace and harmony?
Oh, very nice
very nice
very nice
very nice
...but maybe in the next world"

"my faith in love is still devout"

"I want the one I can't have
and it's driving me mad
it's written all over my face"

"How come someone hasn't noticed
that I'm dead
and decided to bury me
God knows, I'm ready"

"I smoke 'cos I'm hoping for an
early death
and I need to cling to something!"

"What she said was sad
but then, all the rejections she's had
to pretend to be happy
could only be idiocy"

"when you laugh about people who feel so
very lonely
their only desire is to die"

"I wish I could laugh
but that joke isn't funny anymore
it's too close to home
and it's too near the bone
more than ull ever know"

"I've seen this happen in other people's lives
and now it's happening in mine"

"I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen
every sensible child will know what this means
the poor and the needy
are selfish and greedy on her terms"

"Well I wonder
do you hear me when you sleep ?
I hoarsely cry

Well I wonder
do you see me when we pass ?
I half-die

Please keep me in mind"

"and the turkey you festively slice is MURDER
do you know how animals die ?
kitchen aromas aren't very homely
it's not "comforting", "cheery" or "kind"
it's sizzling blood and the unholy stench
of MURDER
who hears when animals cry ?"

"life is very long, when you're lonely"

"and as I climb into an empty bed
oh well, enough said"

"Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
see, the sea wants to take me
the knife wants to slit me
do you think you can help me?"

"although she needs you more than she loves you"

"I know it's over
and it never really began
but in my heart it was so real"

"If you're so funny
then why are you on your own tonight?
and if you're so clever
then why are you on your own tonight?
if you're so very entertaining
then why are you on your own tonight?
if you're so very good looking
why do you sleep alone tonight?
I know because tonight is just like any other night
that's why you're on your own tonight
with your triumphs and your charms
while they are in each other's arms"

"love is natural and real
but not for such as you and I, my love"

"I know I'm alone
I'm alone, I'm alone, I'm alone
And I never, never had no one ever
I never had no one ever"

"Keats and Yeats are on your side
while Wilde is on mine"

"sweetness I was only joking
when I said I'd like to
smash every tooth in your head"

"and when you want to live
how do you start?
where do you go?
who do you know?"

"some girls are bigger than others
some girls mothers are bigger than other girls mothers"

"Don't feel bad for me
I want you to know
Deep in the cell of my heart
I really want to go"

"But when she calls me I do not walk I run
when she calls I do not walk I crawl..."

"End of the pier, end of the bay
you tug my arm and say: "Give into lust,
give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll
soon be dust..."

"Learn to love me
Assemble the ways
Now, today, tomorrow and always"

"poor old man
he had an "accident" with a three bar fire
but that's OK
because he wasn't very happy anyway"

"pretty girls make graves"

"Pass the Pub that wrecks your body
and the church - all they want is your money"

"Coyness is nice, but
Coyness can stop you
from saying all the things in
life that you want to"

"A double-bed
and a stalwart lover, for sure
these are the riches of the poor"

"Shyness is nice, but
Shyness can stop you
From doing all the things in life
That you'd like to"

"Too freely on your lips
words prematurely said
oh but I know what will make you smile tonight"

"so rattle my bones all over the stones
because I'm only a beggar-man whom nobody owns"

"I need advice, I need advice
because nobody ever looks at me twice"

"No, they cannot hurt you my darling
they cannot touch you now
but me and my 'true love'
will never meet again"

"but I can't believe that you'd ever care
and this is why you'll never care
but these things take time
and I know that I'm
the most inept
that ever stepped"

"you should not go to them
let the come to you
just like i do"


"Hate love and war
Force emotions to the fore
But not for me of course of course
I keep mine hidden"

"And when I'm lying in my bed
I think about life
and I think about death
and neither one particularly appeals to me"

"I know I'm unloveable
You don't have to tell me
Message received
Loud and clear
I don't have much in my life
But take it-it's yours"

"Cause I love you
And is it really so strange?
Is it really so strange?
Is it really so, really so strange?
I say NO, you say YES
(but you will change your mind!)"

"Call me morbid call me pale
I've spent too long on your trail
Far too long
Chasing your tail"

"Sing to me
I don't want to wake up
On my own anymore"

"Hang the blessed DJ
Because the music that they constantly play
it says nothing about my life"

"And you think they're sad because you're leaving
But did you see Jealousy in the eyes
Of the ones who had to stay behind ?"

"You left
Your girlfriend on the platform
With this really ragged notion that you'll return
But she knows
That when he goes
He really goes"

"Tried living in the real world
Instead of a shell
But before I began ...
I was bored before I even began "

"There is another world
There is a better world
Well, there must be"

"I wear Black on the outside
'Cause Black is how I feel on the inside "

"And if I seem a little strange
Well, that's because I am"

"But I know that you would like me
If only you could see me
If only you could meet me "

"I like it here - can I stay ?
Do you have a vacancy
For a Back-scrubber?"

"She was left behind, and sour
And she wrote to me, equally dour
She said : "In the days when you were
Hopelessly poor
I just liked you more..." "

"As we lie, you say :
Will the world end in the night time ?
(I really don't know)
Or will the world end in the day time ?
(I really don't know)
And is there any point ever having children ?
Oh, I don't know
All I do know is we're Here and it's Now "

"Today I am remembering the time
When they pulled me back
And held me down
And looked me in the eyes and said
You just haven't earned it yet, baby
You must suffer and cry for a longer time"

"But don't forget the songs
That made you cry
And the songs that saved your life
Yes, you're older now
And you're a clever swine
But they were the only ones who ever stood by you"

"I'm here with the cause
I'm holding the torch
In the corner of your room
Can you hear me ?
And when you're dancing and laughing
And finally living
Hear my voice in your head
And think of me kindly "

"Don't you remember you once knew a girl
You loved her more than the world
Is life always like this, brother ?
Good for one side but bad for another
I must put you behind me tonight
'Cause you belong to the lights "

"I know I need hardly say
How much I love your casual way
Oh, but please put your tongue away
A little higher and we're well away
The dark nights are drawing in
And your humour is as black as them
I look at yours, you laugh at mine
And "love" is just a miserable lie "


"End of the pier, end of the bay
You tug my arm, and say : "Give in to lust,
Give up to lust, oh heaven knows we'll
Soon be dust ... "

Oh, I'm not the man you think I am

I could have been wild and I could have
Been free
But Nature played this trick on me

She wants it Now
And she will not wait
But she's too rough
And I'm too delicate

Then, on the sand
Another man, he takes her hand
A smile lights up her stupid face
(and well, it would)

I lost my faith in Womanhood "

"There'll be blood on the cleaver tonight
And when darknesss lifts and the room is bright
I'll still be by your side
For you are all that matters
And I'll love you to till the day I die "


"Under the iron bridge we kissed
And although I ended up with sore lips
It just wasn't like the old days anymore"

"Too freely on your lips
Words prematurely sad
Oh, but I know what will make you smile tonight
Life is never kind
Oh, but I know what will make you smile tonight"

"Over the moor, take me to the moor
Dig a shallow grave
And I'll lay me down"

"Oh, find me ... find me, nothing more
We are on a sullen misty moor
We may be dead and we may be gone
But we will be, we will be, we will be, right by your side
Until the day you die
This is no easy ride
We will haunt you when you laugh
Yes, you could say we're a team
You might sleep
You might sleep
You might sleep
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM"

"I'm not sure what happiness means
But I look in your eyes
And I know
That it isn't there"

"There's ice on the sink where we bathe
So how can you call this a home
When you know it's a grave ?"
