.....omg, really, we called it arquitortura, which translates exactly into architorture....i remember one time me and a friend, for a final stayed up for 3 days(and nights) in a row, sleeping in shifts of 15 minutes every four hours.....by the end of the third day i could hardly speak......
as Nacmat said, it´s awesome to findout the similarities in such different places such as spain, u.s. and my little country.

yep, i used to get the feeling that people looked at me like a freak that wasted my time drawing, taking pictures and building models, but once they get to know your actual work they´re like ..."ohhh,,i like zees, how on earth did you do that.." i like the look on their faces at that little moment, i feel appreciated and usefull. And by the time i started working ze repect is back for ze wee_one!...hehehehhe
anyway, i´m probably mumbling.....i´m going to bed now. hope you have a goodnight sleep little witch
*zee wee_boy goes happy to bed ´cause he shared nice memories with ze witch*
*(wonders where all ze war days have gone.......prolly better ally forces with ze wicked one.)*
nanight you. 0_+
