gone for 1 month...

at least it feels like I been gone just for one month. I'm back in Bolivia after one year and some days. My last 3 weeks were sort of a mix between surprise and good news and new hopes.

La Paz is quite the same...only that now I'm totally sure that despite its size..it is very cosmopolitan. Last friday I was talking in german, english and spanish just like in any other big city. Well, Tempe was not that cosmopolitan, but in the end was not bad.

I'm now ready to start a short time to get ready and do my best to go back to NK. Yes...after all I think we both got used to be together and share our space and time. Just when I was starting to feel confortable....I have to return.

any way, I'm more calm down now, have more energy to deal these days with reality, like I'm not sure if I still have a job or not, but I might work as a tour guide for germans while I fly back to AZ. I have 2 strong reasons to go back and I'm also counting on really starting what I have wished long ago.

Getting in touch with friends again....GRANDIOSO! I've missed them and their oddities :). But now it's time to sleep. Tomorrow is another busy day and there is more to fill in order to send my application.

my steps into a new hope...

Pedacitos de ti tengo entre mis manos...
Algunas miradas, algunas caricias
Mas tengo tu silencio
tengo tus dudas y preguntas reflejadas en tus ojos....

Que sigue de aqui? eso me preguntaste hace 5 meses...quisiera preguntarte lo mismo, pero creo que a diferencia de aquella vez, esta ocasion no habria respuesta.

Mis dudas iniciales se hacen tangibles ahora. Eres chikitito aun en esta vida. Sabes bien lo que quieres? o solo pretendes saberlo?

No te preocupes, me ando desprendiendo de ti... se ya que no puedo aferrarme mas a algo tan inestable. He encontrado en cambio algo nuevo en que soñar, algo que depende de mi y no de ti. Que hare con o sin ti... ya vez como al final sin ti aun la vida es posible?

Don Giovanni by Komische Opera/Berlin

We were tired with Gisell, and this opera may have not been the best idea to clean our heads from Transfer Project. I must say this is the weirdest version of an opera I'll ever see in my life. I just can't imagine how Komische Opera puts in scene La Traviatta or anything else.

Don Giovanni (el Don Juan) is supposed to be darkest opera from Mozart. I would really like to see a normal representation of the same opera. This version is totally BRUTAL!. Stage is great, gives lots of possibilities to display and change actors in different situations. First part was a bit porno (according to Gix) and second was really dark. Music was excellent, with parts where some musicians will play near the people. Singers had good tones and beautiful voices, only one character was a bit a fiasco...singer didn't perform, but then again...maybe she refused to do all that drama and sexual performance.

In the end...I always have problems understanding modern art in paint...but this kind of modern art in opera...was simply too much!! hhahaha not bad but too much.

Jetzt bin ich nah von Norbu....komisch...es gab kein grosses big bag...aber ich fuhle mich ganz ruhig und zufrieden.
