Much has happened in these fast paced months, first and foremost,
every week I was blessed with the presence of [[http://kdeveze.tumblr.com][my beautiful girlfriend]].
Her constant care and help is what makes our days work for better. For
that and more, I'm grateful.
In a more egocentric agenda, I've been working non-stop for my next
move to the big city. Of course, of the closest big cities in my area,
the most =techie= is /[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Francisco][San Francisco]]/. So expect me soon in the
streets of /[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Beach,_San_Francisco,_California][North Hill]]/, /[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_of_Market,_San_Francisco][SoMa]]/, and /[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Hill,_San_Francisco][Russian
Hill]]/. I haven't found a job nor a place to stay in SF, but I'm
pretty sure that as soon as I get to the city, I will start seeking
and settling in the beautiful city of massive sunsets.
*Why San Francisco?*\\
Well, simple answer:
- Techie city: Half of the population of professionals in SF is involved/works with technology.
- Beautiful city: [[http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=san%20francisco][Search for "San Francisco" in Flickr]], and you'll see what I mean.
- Fun city: Beach, restaurants, shows, mostly everything I like in walking distances.
- Diversity city: There is a huge diversity of races, cultures and activities.
Born and raised in a border city, I've learned that the more I travel
the more I learn, so moving to a city with such rich diversity will
nourish and teach me more than any experience in my hometown will ever
do.
*I want to learn from all these key-points* that make\\
/San Francisco/ such a magnificent metropolis.
*What about School?*\\
Well, what about it? I'm going to continue, probably enroll to a
community college of the area, and continue until I can enroll in
[[http://www.sfsu.edu/][SFSU]], [[http://www.ucsc.edu/][UCSC]] or [[http://berkeley.edu/][UCB]] (of course, if the gods of UC will grant me access).
*On another note*, I'm almost done with =Google Summer of Code=. I've
learned a lot, and I've experienced communicating remotely with other
to other developers. To be honest, I don't want =GSoC= to end, I've
learned a lot from my mentors, people that work with =Dancer=, and
from the people that put so much time and effort to develop great
projects in =Perl=.
I have written about [[http://gnusosa.net/gsoc/2011/07/20/midterm-evaluations.html][my experience passing the midterms]], and also
about [[http://gnusosa.net/gsoc/2011/07/27/current-state-dancer-script.html][the current status of my project with Perl Dancer]].
I'm pretty sure my log will be more active in the following weeks.
