About Me


I'm a walking contradiction. A sometimes cold and rational industrial engineer who works in marketing for personal care products, is highly sensitive, soft and a hopeless romantic idealist despite everything.



If you feel up to it, come check some of my latest rantings out at the Dreaming Chilango Blog or some pics at Dreaming Chilango Flickr Site



Comments and criticism of all sort are not only welcome, but encouraged.



I like driving fast, good movies, long conversations, brutal honesty and making friends.



I work in marketing for Unilever Latin America, based in Argentina.

Interests

Cinema, music, photography, parties, travel, love.... and as of lately, writing... although I'm REALLY rusty.

Favorite Quote

"We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars" --Oscar Wilde

"Perhaps the feelings that we experience when we are in love represent a normal state. Being in love shows a person who he should be." --Anton Chekhov

"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored" --Aldous Huxley

"Life is what happens to you when you're busy making other plans" --John Lennon

"Once the game is over, the King and the pawn go back in the same box." --Italian proverb

"There is always some madness in love. But there is also always some reason in madness." --F. Nietzche

"Misery no longer loves company. Nowadays, it insists on it." --Russell Baker

"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man." --George Bernard Shaw

"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher regard those who think alike than those who think differently."
-Nietzsche

You never know. Lightning could strike.
-Joe Black

"That's easy for you to say. You've got a cool sounding name." --Mr. Pink

Need some space! : May 15, 2007

I barely have the time or energy to write a few times a month... if that much. But when I do, I like a bit more flexibility... and the possibility of moving things around and editing, etc.

So, much to my chagrin, I am relocating this journal/blog/notebook to a blog. If you really, really want to know what goes through my head from time to time, point your browser to the  <a href="http://dreamingchilango.blogstpot.com">Dreaming Chilango Blog</a>.

To the three people who have ever read this.... you're welcome to join the craziness over there.

Thanks!

Alejandro
