End for Paul Beckman story.

I called to the Chief. He was already noticed about how irresponsible I was with the Wong’s appointment. I tried to solve the problem, but it was late. The Chief, who doesn’t feel empathy for Mirsky, was thinking about how to fire him. Just one excuse and the complete business will be on charge of him. In that time, the Chief start thinking about all the envy he has for Mirsky. When they were kids, they used to be neighbors. From most people, Mirsky was adorable, a good boy, interested in help other ones.
Despite, the Chief was the opposite of Mirsky. He was like the bad guy in a movie, he never tried to help someone else, just think in himself.
When they grew up, Mirsky became in a popular boy and most of the girls liked to be his girlfriends. In other hand, the Chief was despised for the ladies, every time he was around.
But time pass by, he had already changed. Now, for an unexpected event during Mirsky and Chief’s college, he finished his major and his employee was, in fact, Mirsky.
Besides this, the Chief was totally in loved with Mrs. Crenshaw, actually, they had a relationship but it was unknown for most people in the real estate business. Mrs. Crenshaw suggested to his lover that it would be better if no one knows about that, because that could affect the work relationship with the other members as Mirsky.
The Chief phone to Mrs. Crenshaw to explain what happened about the Wong’s appointment. Mrs. Crenshaw tried to calm down the Chief, for her it was not a big deal, at the end; the Wong family got what they want. But the Chief wanted that she fire Mirsky. But she denied doing that, for her it was impossible to fire Mirsky, because she realized that she was in loved with him. Obviously it was unknown for the Chief.
While this was happening, Mirsky still is being at the supermarket waiting the cashier. Because of that, he was trying to get himself some fun, but it was impossible. He would try to read a magazine. Then, his cell phone rings, it was Mrs. Crenshaw.

-I would like to see you Mirsky. I change my mind, it would be better if we see each other in the last coffee shop, do you remember it? -
-Oh… mmm… Actually, I’m still in the supermarket. I hope it be faster. I’ll be there as soon as I can.-
- I will be waiting for you.-
-Ok, see you then.-
For Mirsky it was a estrange situation, he has never expect that Mrs. Crenshaw want to see him. In any way he would go to the coffee shop.
Suddenly, after thirty minutes waiting in the row, the cashier checks all the stuffs that Mirsky has chosen.
He drives his car and go to meet Mrs. Crenshaw in the place she decided. When he enters to the place, he was surprised because he thought that the Chief will be with Mrs. Crenshaw. But that’s not a problem; he prefers it in that way. He knows that the Chief will be able to do anything to destroy him; the memories of childhood never left alone Chief nor Mirsky.
In the last table of the coffee shop was Mrs. Crenshaw who looks different from the eyes of Mirsky.
-Hi, I’m sorry for be late. I have a kind of trouble at the store.-
-Yeah, it’s ok. Don’t worry about that.-
-What do you want to talk about? - said Mirsky.
-First at all, about the Wong’s appointment. I think that it would be better if you know that the Chief, as you call him, is trying to fire you from work.-
-I had already thought about that. For him, this will be the best excuse to do that.-
-Mmm… I try to calm down the situation, and I think you can get another chance.-
-Thank you, said Mirsky. This is all you want to talk about?-
-Not actually, I want to tell you other thing. I think I’m in loved with you.-
At this time, she approaches to him. Mirsky doesn’t know what to do. She was the boss of this boss. And even if they didn’t make public their relationship, he knows that the Chief was the lover of Mrs. Crenshaw.
-Hold on. Even if I’m unmarried, I think you should respect me. I already know that you have a relationship with the Chief. I don’t want to be in more problems because of this.-
-Don’t you listen to me? I do really love you; I don’t feel comfortable with him. All the time I’m thinking about you.-

Then she starts kissing Mirsky. In the bottom of his heart, Mirsky felt some attraction for Mrs. Crenshaw, so it was difficult to reject the kissing lips of Mrs. Crenshaw.
In the office, the Chief was asking for the girl.
-Where is she? Asked to the secretary.-
-I don’t know. She never tells me where she is going; but you can phone her.-
-I will do that, even if you don’t suggest it.-

For one reason, Mrs. Crenshaw makes a note in her agenda about the appointment. May be because she never thinks about the Chief looking for her. The Chief goes to his own office and take the weapon that he kept into the second drawer of the desk.
The Chief become into a mad guy. His eyes look like an insane person. He drove to the appointment place. When he enters to the coffee shop, looks his lover and his rival kissing in an enthusiastic way.
-How can you do this to me? I love you more than anything. Why did you choose him? He is insignificant. We have wedding plans-.
- Calm down. I tried to talk to you, but you were always complaining about work, about your own problems, even about him. I just don’t know what to do, and I fell in loved with him. I don’t where, how, why… but I did. And I think there is nothing to do. Just leave us alone.-
-And you… you only were waiting to make me something like this. This is not the first time; I should kill you since we were teenagers. You were the perfect one for everybody.-
-What can I tell you? I know you had always been envy for everything I have. Now she chooses me. And if you want to know, this is the first time we did this, so don’t be disappointed, because she never cheats you with me.-

The Chief takes off the weapon, and crying, shoot to the girl.
The people around call the police; he never tried to escape. Mirsky, who think that now everything was going to be ok, was inconsolable. He will be alone as in the beginning of this story.
-Since morning, I thought it would be a bad day, but I never imagine how bad it could be.-

Fifht day

Just cause you feel it
Doesn’t mean it’s there

There, there, that’s not me.

This are also lines from one of my favorite songs. I think they can apply for every single situation we passed. Today was my speech day, actually most of all the team thought that it would be perfect, but it wasn’t. Well, we make a dialogue and it sounds great the disappointing situation comes with the execution. Also the teacher gave us a good grade but we think (the people who care) that we disappoint the teacher; he expects too much for us.
I think this was the most important thing had happened, but as I say those lines apply for everything. Sometimes when you are in loved think or even you create that the other person feels the way you do, and they don’t. I think that these lines make us learn about how we can interpret and how is the real life. I mean that sometimes we are dreamers and we don’t care too much about reality. Sometimes it would be dangerous for us, but we just have to learn when we have to make a difference about real life and our dreams.

Fourth day

Simple things are the best

Simple things are the best. Thursdays are long days, but I always enjoy them because I have most of my favorite classes. Well the thing is that the last class is Golden Centuries. The teacher was upset so the class wasn’t too funny but at the end of it I asked to the teacher about the topic for the speech. I told him that I was very confused because of the information of the book, but the information was right, the wrong was my team’s partner. Actually the speech was easier than we think, we just have to tell obvious thing and not complicate ourselves searching for complex information.
Today’s reflection is about that, simple things.
Sometimes people think that fancy things have more value, but they don’t, and this is related about the “hard and endless speech” we spent so many time thinking how to talk and make the differences between the writers and it was easy; don’t make things complicated.
Most of the times we think because of fear or whatever that things have to be easy and they are but we because of fear or anger we make things bigger than they are. May be we just have to learn on do not do things bigger or try to live in an easier way, and trying to get the best of all our experiences.

Third day

Individualism vs Teams

Today was a boring day. I just have two classes, and supposedly we have already finished the speech for Friday, but my surprise was that they didn’t so we stayed until 6 pm doing the speech. The worst thing was that we didn’t finish all the work because we have too much information and then we get confused. Also I had a problem with my computer system also with my net connection. But work is work, and I’m doing this in a paper.
I think that tomorrow I will ask my teacher about the topic, because I’m totally lost. I thought that I was right and I’m not, that we have done the work and we haven’t. The worst thing is that I can’t go to English class because of this.I think that my reflection is that we don’t have to trust in teams, only if you have worker and responsible persons, most when I have to do works for my favorite class.
Sometimes I believe that it would be better I work by myself but in this case I couldn’t. I don’t like to seem like an individualism person, but most of the times it works better than teams.
But also teams have advantages, because you can have more ideas or different point of views, so that makes a very enjoyable activity because you learn about other ones perspectives.
I think it would be my reflection for today.

Second day

Books don't say all the truth!

Today was not such a good day. The only thing that I consider important is that sometimes I don’t have to trust too much on what I read on books.
The thing is that I –with my team- have to make a speech talking about the different kind of styles of some writers for my Golden Centuries class. I think the speech was done, but it wasn’t. The information I had found on a “specialized book” was wrong. And I realized that because of some of my partner’s team had Iberoamerican Literature class and they are also talking about those topics, so I asked to their teacher about the information. She is amazing, and she told me “it isn’t wrong, but is a complete answer for what your teacher is asking to you”.
Sincerely, I am just a little bit angry, because I have to do again the search, and do the speech.
Also I consider that is awful that are books which are “specialized” when they don’t.

First day

The Clock

Time is running out for us
But you just move your hands upon the clock
Throw coins in the wishing well
For us
You make believe that you are still in charge.

These are lines from a song that explains something that everyone knows that happen. I am telling this because my today’s reflection is related with those lines, and it´s about time.
Today was as every single Monday, but I think as it was the same it was also different. It was when we were talking about when we decided to study our major and why did we choose them. So my common day started at 6:45. I had to wake up early to go to my literature theory class. The class was good; we were talking about one book of James Joyce. This book talks about how an artist’s mind changes while the time passes by, how it is in childhood and when you are a teenager. I didn’t know that part of this class will be related with English class, most of the time I think that my major classes are related with English class but today I was totally right.
The topic of the activity was when we decided what to study, my partner and I started talking about why did we choose each major also when we think that we like it.
I remembered when I decided to study Hispanic Literature, and it was since I was at CCH, also we talk about all of the other majors we had chosen.
Remember those chapters in my life, make me think about how time pass by, how I’ve changed and that I’m pretty sure that I really enjoy the major I’ve chosen.
So time still running out and life seems to be a racer between it and us.

Dear Amy

Dear Amy:
Few days ago I had lunch with some of my friends in a place near from school. I had class so I left them in that place, while I was walking I saw the boyfriend of one of my friends, but he wasn’t alone he was cheating her with someone else. The worst thing is that she phoned me and told me that she is really in love with him, that’s why I feel bad… and I don’t know what to do.
Should I tell her that her boyfriend is cheating her? Or just try to do like nothing had happened?
