 Six-word story 

There I was, eating your soup.

Six-word story

 I loved you, I still do. -Alesi Canul

What goes around comes around.

 In junior high school  I had "problems' ' with the math teacher because I was the worst in the class. He used to tell me it was a fortune that I knew the difference between 1, 2 and 3 or it was a miracle that I could make ads. I had to stand this for a year  and  by the end of this I had failed the subject . Of course my parents had known everything about this situation  and they went to talk to the principal, he had been thinking that it was all my fault but my classmates told him the things he used to say in front of them about me, and other students  in different grades where  the same situation had also happened. In the end, I passed the extraordinary exam.I kept  studying and improving my skills in math. In high school I participated in a math competition and I was in  the top ten  competitors list . Finally, I finished my degree in engineering of energy and petroleum. Thanks to mygrades and skills I collaborated with a laboratory for my thesis project, and my ex teacher was fired and his license to be a teacher was withdrawn. The point of this is I never did something bad to him, and he treated me badly, and many people thought that it was my fault, even my parents; but the time shows that I always tell the truth, and It could sound bad, but the life gave him back what he did to myself and other students, in a very bad way because he ended up losing his teaching licence.

 Better to get an egg today than a hen tomorrow

Once I was in the casino and was playing and winning, in  a moment I thought change my tokens for money and go out but I played again and I lost my tokens. Sometimes is better keep what you have, I think it depends of luck.

Necessity is the mother of invention.


When I was a child my parents gave me a little money for school ($2.50) every day. Of course It was not enough, because like any kid I wanted candies and junk food, so I started a “business “ in class.

I had started to “give money with interest”, so I lent money and in exchange I charged .50 cents for each day that elapsed. With this money I could buy candies and junk food like sabritas, and the sabritas had “tazos” and  all the kids wanted me to share my snacks, so later I was selling them, and I was very happy because  when the school was finally over, I was running to eat my food cravings, which honestly there were completely prohibited to me, so I truly believe that necessity is the mother of invention

         “YOU CANNOT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER”

One day, when I was still working, I met a girl who seemed extremely smug, and had a puffed up sense of her own importance, her posture…

As the days passed, having talked to her, I had to admit that she was without a doubt sympathetic, people person and honestly trustworthy.  When we had already started to be friends I told her my frightful first impression of her, she told me that now many people appreciate her, even when they had said the same thing to her.

Since then, we have been best friends.

Paella - Cuisine Culture.

Are you bored of eating the same every day? Well, I have a solution (or a suggestion, an idea, a proposal) that you will enjoy, like, love, cherish, relish, etc.). I recommend a dish that is extremely delicious and if you try it, you could not stop eating it and you know what? It is totally healthy. So now I am going to introduce the dish that you need to try. Its name is Paella. Have you heard the name? Paella is made using salmorreta, which is also used in dishes such as arroz a banda or arroz del señorret and is a sauce made of garlic, tomato, ñora (a hot dried pepper)  and parsley. Then, in addition to the rice, it is made with chicken, rabbit, pepper, garlic, saffron and occasionally chickpeas. It is a cooking recipe based on rice.

So ... Do you want to try paella? you will not regret it!, the best part of eating paella is the completely (inexpensive, reasonable) cost of the ingredients compared to other more expensive dishes. I tried paella one year ago and the funny thing is that I do not like the sea food, but paella is different because you won’t  taste the “sea flavor” like in other sea-food dishes.
