England.. more than a simple sabbatical year

Well, here I am again after  a really long time.

Things have changed a lot since I posted something for the last time. Now I am at home living a new life and once again along with my family, my real family……

As all of my friends know (or at least most of them), currently I’m in Colombia – South America(to those who don’t know where Colombia is located) working so hard and living my life as I should have lived it when I was in England. Now the question is: Why should I have lived my life over there like that? well.. if you met me there or if you spent part of your life with me (even if it was just for a few seconds)  Maybe you remember me as a spoilt boy or as a guy who hasn’t grown up yet ; thing I thought that was so cool when I was at school or hanging out with my friends at the Nottingham’s city centre… but after analysing my experience in that country I found out that I wasted my time and also that I could have learnt much more…….

It is so frustrating but it is better to be aware of the reality than to live a big lie or just to forget your past as if it nothing had happened. The past is real and leaves scars on you.. you are who you are and you behave according to your experiences, so to forget them would be like to throw them away and rub your mistakes out  with a magic rubber that wouldn’t let you learn from them. Have you ever heard that beautiful but simple saying which says “every day is school day” ?……. you must learn from your mistakes

As I was telling you I regret some of the things I did when I was in England, things such as being drunk all the time, not to study as I should have and specially being other person… a totally different one! …… now it is to late to feel guilty or regretful about it but it is not late to apologyse for those huge mistakes. so I want to take this time out to tell you that I learnt my lesson and I hope life gives us another opportunity to meet again.

Guys to tell the truth I was gonna write something deeper and longer but I’m really knackered and I’m going to bed right now……
