A normal day in the Red circle

Image
Bar stories : The Red circle, once the greatest gentlemen’s club there was in the city, the place where the people who belonged to the highest level of society aimed to be a part of, was now a place where lowlifes gathered. Mostly to plot for illicit activities and have a good time. Thinking about it actually it really didn’t change much except for … well let’s say the way people carry themselves. The games of poker once were about trying to measure one’s ability to play a part but now the players gambled out of vice which can only lead to bad decision making, for example in more than one occasion people lost everything they had just to prove a point. Something stayed the same, or it could be said, someone stayed the same, the family who ran the establishment the Carters. The Red circle has been passed down generation to generation and nowadays it’s the turn for William Carter jr. Now Sadly for William the place was a real challenge but the Carters... They don’t give up, even if t

Welcome to my blog: Finding yourself How’s it going? My name is Freddy Jabano, I’m 27 years old currently living in Buenos Aires, Argentina. First of all I want to greet you to my blog page and I hope you enjoy my writings, this post is for you to know more about me and what I try to accomplish with my blogs. I started “Finding yourself”  because it is my way to try and share my opinion on different topics and how what I thought while living through some experiences have helped me become what I believe is a better version of myself. Everyday I try becoming a better version of myself, I always try to improve. I decided to share my personal experiences because I’d like to understand how other people see life and their points of view. This blog divides into 3 series: 1) Chapters of life series : This series is about sharing my point of view and my insights on different perspectives in situations that have happened to me. 2) Bar stories series : Here is where I let my imagi

A place just like home

Chapter of life series: A place just like home The migration experience is a challenge, one that not a lot of people can understand without actually going through with it. Every immigrant has faced the challenges and … well if you have been an immigrant then you can comprehend where I'm going with this. Each one of us who has lived through the experience have been a witness of how hard it is to leave everything behind trying to create a new life, a better life in another country. Just how hard it is not being in the place which represents us the most, it’s hard to feel like you belong with every tradition being so different from the ones of your home country. I know I shouldn’t generalize because there are multiple ways of dealing with this situation and everybody just handles it differently. I believe that many of us have felt that this new place couldn’t ever truly feel like home in at least one occasion. Some people take the concept of home as literally a physical spa

Unapproachable

Chapter of life series: Unapproachable About a month ago I was riding a bus on my way to work, I was sitting in one of the front rows of the bus, I noticed a good-looking teenage girl who was seating right in front of me, I could see she was struggling because she had a sad look on her face, as the bus went on it’s route other teenagers were getting on and the bus was getting full. I was looking at the girl and every time one of the teenager dudes approached the seat she was sitting in, she grabbed her things in order to make room for a person to sit right next to her, and they just kept on going without even taking a second look at the girl who was kindly making room for them to sit. I am no stranger to feeling lonely so I could tell immediately how she was feeling. I have been in situations like that one, and it does make you feel lonely because you start asking yourself, am I really so terrible that no one wishes to be near me? Is there something I’m doing wrong? I have l

Finding yourself

Chapter of life series: Finding yourself Let's say you are out with friends and you meet a potential significant other, in-between questions one asks the other:  - Tell me about yourself, Who are you? It seems like a simple question, doesn't it? I mean sure there are millions of possible answers to the question and in my case, I tend to look at it in a philosophical way but it's almost impossible to respond. Or at least that's what I used to believe. One way to answer the question is to say your name or where you are from, what and where you studied, you know... facts about you... but  Does that really answer the question? I believe there is no real answer to a question like that, we all have our time periods to find the answer, some of us make take a lifetime to find the answer, some may find it in their teenage years and I suppose it's also possible we may never find the proper answer to the question. I guess what I'm trying to say is that eac
