Every working day I'm on the run

Let me tell you that living in Buenos Aires is more or less like this (now I'll describe a random working-day morning of mine): firstly, the alarm goes off early (let's say 7 o'clock, which is pretty early to me), secondly I have my first (and useless) attempt to get up. Then, my second attempt at it, and I succeed. However, it happens at 7.20. Anyway... then, I get dressed and start making my breakfast and serving some food to my cat, all that in very few minutes because I'm really not interested either in having my breakfast in 3 minutes or in eating on the bus. Finally, what happens is that, most of the times, I do eat something on the bus. And I hate it.
Okay. At this point, I'm ready to go out. This is not over yet. Now, we still have the adorable commuting...there are only two buses that leave me near my workplace: 152 and 68. 152 leaves me only 2 blocks away, whereas 68 leaves me almost 5 blocks away. Nevertheless, 68 is much more frequent than 152. Do you think it's a good experience? I think you know it's not. The bus I take (whichever it is), like all of them, is completely crowded, so everyone has to occupy a very small space, accept the shoves without saying anything and, in spite of all the efforts, you still get to work late...I can't blame the traffic, I know I should wake up even earlier (which would make me feel as if I were a zombie), or maybe do all what I mentioned before faster. Anyway, I'm not worried about this, because we, the Argentines, are very famous for being always on the run and staying up really late. So, considering that, I'm just like everyone else. That's the system. That's Buenos Aires way of life.

My dear Buenos Aires

First of all, I'm gonna introduce myself: I'm Silvio Llorens, aged 26, and I'm from Buenos Aires, Argentina. Yeah, I'm a porteño from my first day of life. Then, why am I writting in English? Because I like it better, just that. First question: What is it all about? On this blog you'll find all the things I like best and least about living in Buenos Aires, my points of view, my thoughts. Second question: How often will the entries take place? As often as I feel the need. Third and last question: Why this topic? I think I have a lot of things to say about the city where I live. Its pros and cons, its good and bad days, its weather, its people, its "rules"... Okay. After introducing my main ideas to you, let's get started: Living in Buenos Aires can be really tough for somebody who isn't used to it. I don't mean people staying for a short period of time like 1 or 2 months, but longer. And I can say that just by thinking of myself in situations such as being robbed right after having left home or having to wait half an hour to get a bus at midnight. Nevertheless, living in Buenos Aires can be a really good experience too: night outs are longer than in other countries, parties are really fun and since you are used to the far-reaching bad mood and even moody people, when you find a smile on a person who is working, let's say, as a seller (which is clearly not the funniest job), you feel amazed! Sometimes people can surprise you! To sum up, most of the time, I complain about Argentines' behaviour, and that's a good reason to begin to write this blog. In this way I can avoid annoying the people I'm surrounded by.
