Why I am sure aliens have not come to earth:

Haha, still not studying, the thing is this, i'm sure than at least a hundred times you've heard something like "aliens are here!!!" or maybe something more original like "I was abducted by an alien, he ate my face, raped me, licked my feet and left me sleeping in my bed looking exactly the same I looked before", and when you kindly ask for proofs, they get all defensive and even a little aggressive.

To all that people, I want to tell you that what you've said where lies, because aliens don't even want to come to earth, and here are some reasons:

If they come to experiment on us:

1.- they could have already created a human farm in their planet, what kind of creature can travel trough space but not have a farm

2.- considering that all abductions where true, they have "experimented" on almost a million freak-faced people, and they always do the same experiment, they should be bored to death by now.

3.- considering it is not the same experiment, some experiments would have failed leaving horrible scars or other side effects, but maybe, the side effects are molten faces, if thats the case, maybe all the experiments went bad.

If they come to tell us something:

1.- they are pretty bad communicators, I mean, PLEASE, WE DON'T UNDERSTAND YOUR FREAKIN' CIRCLES, maybe they should teach us to read before writing to us.

2.- why can't they do like the politicians and throw up a speech in front of a million people and TV's.

If they want war:

1.- they would have killed us like thirty years ago

If they are on a vacation:

1.- what kind of vacation would it be if you have to stay hidden from the natives

2.- this point comes in form of a chat between two of them (looks like one is the father and the other one is a teenage son)

"hey dad! where are we going on the vacation?"

"I don't know teenage son, what do you think of venus?"

"well, I don't know, the gasses are great, but it's not in any more"

"and the earth?"

"GREAT! I love playing hide n' seek, breathing all the poison gases they throw to the atmosphere and eating all that junk food they sell!"

"ok, i'll prepare the ship"

If they are naturalists:

1.- this would be a horrible planet, so why would a hippie alien want to come?

The most probable thing is that they are seriously sick and are humanphilic (that like to have sex with humans), and so they come and rape people, but then, it would be disgusting to think about the scene.

Those are my reasons, and if you have any opinion, let me hear it.

thanks and good bye

Exams: The history behind the nightmare

Today I found myself sitting in my not-very-comfortable chair, in front of my computer, asking myself why the hell am I in my house and not outside?, and the answer came right after the question, on monday I have a physics exam, YES, I study engineering, or at least I pretend to study, because it is not as if I where really studying haha.

Anyway, I decided to let go a little bit and write a little bit about what I think of exams here.

I don't know who was the person who came up with the witty idea of making an exam to prove how much we know about whatever the exam is about, but i'm pretty sure that it was the same person who discovered that a knife was really useful if you wanted to kill someone.

This person, who I am going to name Mr. X. M. only because I like the sound of those letters together, surely grew up in a non friendly environment, and when transformed in a fully grown adult, he decided to ruin the lives of everybody's children, he thought and thought, days and nights, during a whole year! and one day, he came up with his horrible idea.

He got a job as a teacher in the elementary school in which he had studied so many years ago, and worked really hard, until he got to be the principal, once he was there, he created the exam, and told everyone that exams where great, that they would help them know how much did the kids learn.

Years later, teachers are still convinced that exams are the only way to know if you know, and so, they keep making exams, and kids of all ages keep failing.

Thats the true story about exams, and now, i'm going to continue studying.

Thank you, and good bye

Presenting myself

My dearest reader:

My name is Manuel Q. Afaonaro Zernandef, I was born in Mexico from a portuguese father and an arab mother.

Because my parents are traveling artists, I never had a school, I learned what that I know all by myself, and now I am living in Mexico city alone.

What I do is to study the art of living, so I spend my day wondering, observing, writing down my ideas, and, from now on, communicating them to you in this blog.

Comments will be appreciated, hope you enjoy reading this blog.
