On Boredom
I have realized that a lot
of crap is constantly
written in many social
entertainment websites.
Facebook.com has, perhaps
accidentally, sort of gained
control over previous well
known networking sites such
as Hi5 (launched in 2003),
myspace, spaces.live, etc.To
be realistic, I kind of like
the fact that I have found
people in that virtual place
that I thought I would never
ever see again in my life.
It is amazing the power this
modern creation has reached
to attract people of all
ages. It And it
certainly gives us the
opportunity to do a lot of
things very easy, in a
fashion way, and in real
time. Yet, (if you know me
you'd say that most of my
comments turn to be sort of
pessimistic) I've found
myself disappointed seen
what this important tools
has become.

I promise I stop the critic
here, but seriously, there
is not substance in most of
the content you'll find
here. You don't need to be a
politician, or a poet, or
even a philosopher, I'd say.
Just try to be a little bit
more creative and utilize
this medium to do more for
the people and not just
reproducing the same
stupidity coming from inept
personages that do not more
than offend human
intelligence.
And after four
months I noticed a big
change in my personality.
What does it mean to be
tolerant? Do we have to
accept people the way they
are, or is it necessary in
order to live a happy life
to coexist with all types of
personalities and diversity?
These question emerge as I
find now the above
statements awkward and too
radicals. In these four
months I somehow learned
that to appreciate the value
of diversity and try now to
see how people behave from a
different perspective I did
before. Even though life is
an issue we all should
considered seriously, and
knowing that we all play an
important role in the making
of society and society's
evolution, we cannot expect
people to be devoted to
political matters all the
time, or expect them to be
interested in how to change
the world. We should not
judge others for the way
they act either, not even
when their behavior affects
us for that behavior could
be the result or projection
of how we treated them.

- Investigations
made in different
places with the
intention, or
motive, of acquiring
data to support the
different theories
that can be found
under the Project
sectio
On Psychology
◊
Statement of Purpose
On Life
Digital
materials containing
information and references
to all what I have collected
throughout my academic life
can be found in this site. I
am sharing them for you to
look and use
the way it pleases to you.
In some links you may find
documents that have been
given to me by close friends
and also by those working
for this organization. In
some othe instances you will
find that my works have been
assisted by professors and
colleagues that served as
critics ans mentors to my
projects
I
also decided to share this
digital information with you
as I consider them not to be
mine. Instead, I believe all
this knowledge I have
obtained comes from the
people I have interacted
with in my lifespan.
I humbly, and with scarce
professional luxury put here
what I have achieved, and
understanding the
limitations of having an
arcaic website, but also
knowing that what is
necessary for your own
benefit is that you can read
and enjoy the time you spend
browising this pages
On the othe hand, my
autobiography does not
exclude the self interes ofr
letting you know more about
the author of this tale.
Although I do not have a
vast repertoire of
achievements and prizes, i
do present here an important
amount of details that began
when I was a little boy who
went to elementrary school
in Caracas, Venezuela. this
biography, then, will allow
those interested in
searching out of the context
of a resume, to be able to
understand betteer who I am,
and what am I trying to
achieve in this project.
Basically, with the
inclusion of resources such
as Mi Educacion, Ideas and
Pleasures, etc, you may be
able to contemplate what i
have thought and and dreamt
of as anindividual, a
colective being or a product
of social ideologies
The
links to images and videos
will take you to a gallery
of personal materials rather
than thos images and videos
found under the gallery , as
well as stories of my trips
and comments made by friends
and readers of this website
los enlaces a imágenes y
videos, relatos de mis
viajes y comentarios hechos
por amigos y lectores
complementan con la visión
original que cada uno de
ustedes tendrá sobre ésta
página. Les invito a que
paseen entonces por cada uno
de estos enlaces ya que sólo
así se evitarían los
estereotipos que suelen
crearse con la primera
impresión de mis fotos, ó
los que ya se han creado al
conocerme personalmente.
Espero, de verdad, disfruten
su paseo y recuerden que con
sus comentarios podemos
hacer de este sitio algo más
que una serie de páginas web
en donde se han acumulado
materiales textuales y/o
audiovisuales. Con su
opinión mi trabajo ganaría
críticas que harían de ello
la oportunidad de mejorarme
cada vez más, de aquí mi
interés a que me escriban a
mi correo
-
Interests:
-
To this point,
to find out what philosophy
and life can offer,
and what doesn't make me
feel more apathetic. Things
I don't do: alcohol,
drugs,
narcotics,
coffee,
smoking;
partying/hang out.
-
Favorite Music:
-
Oh,
this is though. Music really
is my blood. I love
slow-déjà vu songs. Baladas,
Boleros,
Protesta and Folklore. Pop,
Sould,
R&B/Soul,
Oldies But Goodies,
Country Oldies,
but specially those
reminding me of my childhood,
love,
all the things I appreciate
in live.
-
Favorite TV Shows:
-
Don't watch TV. I would say
shows like "Everybody loves
Raymond" are interesting and
finny. History & Discovery
Channel,
Animal Planet would attract
more my attention.
-
Favorite Movies:
-
Dances With WolvesWith
Wolves;
Into the Wild;
Schindler's List;
The English Patient;
The Fifth Element;
Life Is Beautiful;
Braveheart;
The Notebook and Along Came
Polly (Believe it or not);
and these documentaries:
Sicko and Aftermath:
Population Zero;
.
-
Favorite Books:
-
Science,
its method and its
philosophy (Read when I was
12yrs-old... and still have
some fresh memories. That's
learning). The Spirit of the
Laws;
100 years of Solitude;
The Interpretation of Dreams;
Discourse on the Origin of
Inequality/Social Contract;
and a lot more...
-
Favorite Quotations:
-
I can't include them all in
this tiny space so I will
tell you who they belong to.
Charles Montesquieu;
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Simon
Bolivar, Che Guevara, Arthur
Schopenhauer, Albert
Einstein, The Bible
(virtuous but not
conservatives), Aldous
Huxley, Aristotle, Plato,
Albert Camus, Mahatma
Gandhi, Friedrich Nietzsche,
Mother Theresa; and any
other enforcing our duty
toward humanity, earth and
our quality of life.
-
About Me:
-
Most of it is included
above. Any other
characteristic could be
inferred... Demographics:
Venezuelan, radical,
anti-everything most people
do, although a particular
being. Not intend to live
after reaching 50-years-old.
Traveling is my ecstasy, and
interacting with diverse
people satisfy my id. A
psych student who follows
philosophic and socialist
ideas even though I know
this will lead me to
frustrating ends.
Thank you for reading all
this, you are fabulous.
