"Just know when the glass is empty, that the world is gonna bend"

Hey there! tomorrow I will be going to the garage sale to be isntructed on the pricing system, and stuff like that so be cheking soon for the new post about tomorrow's activities.

I can't help myself, I'm addicted to a life of material...

Since I'm finally going to start working on the garage sale, I figured there must be still something else for me to do. I will try to get used clothes, shoes, books, "used anything" for the sale. I know it will be kind of hard and time-consuming, but come on, this is me we're talking about.

I'll just have to skip classes...

I've come to decide to skip a couple of classe every now and then so I can give conferences about sexual abstinence. I wish there had been another way, but there were no conferences planned on the afternoon so I'm guessing that since i've already skipped some classes with no purpose whatsoever, it won't kill me to give conferences on the morning. I'll have to be prepared and have studied the presentation throughout the week after the holidays for when they call me saying they have an open spot for me.

Such a small world

On the 3-day weekend I left the city and visited some friends from Aguascalientes, who would have thought my friend is actually the head of the VIFAC community center at Aguascalientes? How queer is that? At first she told me her story about how she decided to help VIFAC. She told me that she had always wanted to have children, but unfortunately they just couldn't get pregnant, then they finally decided to adopt and they went through a long process under the control of VIFAC. Some time later VIFAC called her and told her that she "had a daughter" and they flew all the way to Mexico City to pick up the child. After some time, VIFAC asked her if she wanted to be a part of the center as a way to recompensate the adoption and she agreed. We chatted about the ways they were trying to obtain funds and even told me that the same barbecue we had in torreon a few days ago had been in Aguascalientes 2 years ago but unfortunately the people did not seem to like the cooking style so they've now started to sell Paella instead of the barbecue. She told me that it was good for me to be interested in being a part of the society and giving back something.

Fully rested

Ater two (three) weeks of being useless, i've finally found out something I can do to keep on helping VIFAC. Today I went to the office near Constitucion in order to talk with the person in charge of VIFAC and we've decided that I will start helping in the garage sale next sunday and will continue doing so all sundays from 11 to 2 pm. When I got there she was on the phone so I had kind of had to wait for her to hang up and when she finally did, we agreed on the details and she gave me a letter so the people working at the garage sale would know that I'm authorized to be there and am not someone else trying to steal things away.

Isn't something missing?

Hey! I;m more than willing to post a small reflection about everything that I've been doing, but it's 1:46 am. so I'll post a new thread tomorrow. Sorry!

More than just a fashion statement...

I got a feeling...

That tonight's gonna be a good night,,,, hmm more like: that yesterday was a good day.

So Yesterday was finally the charity barbecue near the Revolucion stadium. I got there at 11 am and quickly was asked to help around by lifting boxes, setting chairs, do all kinds of handful things. I had been selling tickets for this even for the past two week and i managed to sell 30 tickets, total.
We prepared around a thousand orders in 2 hours. I helped by carrying the trays fully loaded with chicken breast, legs, wings, you name it, to the area where people were packing up and serving the other ingredients. At 1 pm all i had to do was hand out the orders and receive tickets. After that I had a little chat with the person in charge of the garage sale to see if there was any open day for me to go and help by any way i can. She said I should go to the lieu first and be "trained" in order for me to be there by myself on sunday mornings. I left the place around 5 pm and when i left there were very few orders that had not been picked up. When I arrived home i was completely exhausted. I was really happy and excited about the event, but all i really wanted to do was have some sleep.
