Sex loves the City.

People usually want to get to know places and they wonder how would it be like to be in that place. Many people wonder about how is it like to be in New York. So, what is it like New York? Well, from a 21 years old gay guy perspective I can say: it's the closest thing to heaven I've ever been. Pretty much all the cliches about New York are true, all you get to see in New York is true and all you wanna do in New York can be done. When you're in New York you get to see a brand new world called fantasy becoming reality. Streets with high hills girls, suit and nice haircuts gays, tourists every where holding a map in one hand and a camera in the other, skyscrapers defying gravity. In New York anyone can dedicate you a smile because they realize you're not from around or ask you how to get to some place just because to look more confident than them. You may actually know all these things, but what do you really do when you get here? You've got two options; either you follow a boring museums and typical buildings guide, or you can grab the damn complicated subway map and just go wherever you wanna go. Obviuoslly the last option is the best, I tried it. Althought you should be aware that there are some risks. The second night I was here I went to look around for gay discos and I ended up in a asian strip club (yeah, WTF! - and I don't even like asians at all!). After that I learned that there are some places where you can get to "nail" regular people - without the need of putting singles in their almost non-existing underwear. Now, let's just talk about a "commom day". There are so many particular things about New York that not everybody can notice. If you get into the subway and look around, you'll notice that it's like a human zoo. People from all the races with no exception is sitting there; but you can tell who is from NY and who isn't. A New Yorker will be either holding an iPod -or any "i" product -, a newspaper or checking the email in the cellphone, an outsider will be looking over and over again at the subway map trying not to get lost - been there!. Yes, of course there is the liberty statue - use the free ferry, even if it is just to step on staten island -, the Time Square -  oh my gosh, those billboards can hypnotize you! - and the Ground Zero - you can barely see anything now -, but there is nothing in the world like the Central Park, is HUGE!, lovely, amazing and the best part is... if you go in the afternoon you get to see beautiful bodies jogging pretending to be alone in the world.
If you are reading this note because of the title, probably is because it reminded you of a show called "sex and the city". Well, I can assure you that it was totally well done and that probably New York will fulfill most of your expectations. If you are a girl straight and you see a very well dressed, atractive and polite guy, be careful, there's a lot of chances that he's gay. If you are a gay and you can't tell if someone is gay, just ask him where he lives, if he lives in Hell's Kitchen it's your lucky day!. If you go out with friends to a random place, be careful with the bill, it can be suddenly 300 dollars! If you meet someone who lives in Manhattan and doesn't have a roommate... JACKPOT! One last advice; don't get tricked by the taxis. In this city there are 3 taxis for every car, but the fares are expensive like hell.
However, no matter how dirty it is or how weird it is to see steam coming out from the drain, everyone fall in love with New York <3

A prior birthday epiphany

I'm actually less than an hour I'm turning 23 and it's been quite a journey. in less than a year I went from heaven to hell back and forth so many times I lost count. I went from being surrounded b pole I loved in a way I never expected to being a stranger in my own hometown. To losing myself and learning about the kid I used I see in the mirror, to being happy to let the sadness tear me up from the inside.  Yes, I grew up, I was surprised, I allowed myself to be dissapointed by people for one last time, I let the wall keeping me away from falling for a guy down. They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, I say fight back. There are lessons I must never forget, and I mean it when I say never. The first comes to friends. Friends are magical beings that appear in your life and are loyal to you no matter what. They'd take the bullet for you. They'd swallow their sadness to cheer you up. Friends are beyond time and space, beyond destiny and destinations...

First time

There are many first times. We crave them. Our first time outside the coutry, first time on our own, first time doing something crazy, or simply "the" first time. However, there are first times we don't know they are first times 'till it's too late. For example, our first time truly in love. When we're teenagers we have crushes, we think they are our first loves till we realize they're not. As we grow older we have our first kiss and, well, hopefully later, our first time. What we seem to forget is that we rarely share all those first times with the same person, that only happens in movies. Our first love comes later, when we know ourselves, when we less expect it. Our first love comes when you less expect it, that moment when you're off guard, when you might not want to be in love, when love is too silly to believe in.  As we grow older we meet new and more interesting people and there's someone, someone with whom you share a certain connecti...

To The Object Of My Affection

I, from another land, met you in the summer, and you from another time, made your way as my lover,  I was reckless and didn't see the moon,  shining brighter, gravitating around you, and though I, I never was one for strings attached. l let you in, to be part of my life. Later the fall came, turning leaves in red, and so promises were made, nice things were said. It showed me that usual as you there are few, Cause you know no season, they avoid you, And though I, I never was one for sharing, Let me say, when you sleep, I lay staring. Finally an early winter came and it's far gone, I had no idea what was it like not spend it alone, I get it now, we're just outlaws of love, running away from anyone with a soul. And though I never was one for happiness, I summon thee and farewell loneliness.
