RAMS vs. Aztecs

Badakit denbora dexente pasa dela azkeneko aktualizaziotik hona baina hainbeste gauza dauzkat kontatzeko filtroa jarri ta zeoze aukeratu beharra daukadala. Horregatik ba egin ditudan gauza guztietatik amerikanoenarekin geratu beharko naiz eta abentura pertsonal honetatik gauza on ta txarrak argitu (ze alde txarrak ere badaude).

Bueno egia esan, USA (kirol asuntoan) = espektakuloa. Eta hala da, partidoa unibersidadeen arteko partidoaa da. Rams (Colorado State University) vs. Aztecs (San Diego University) nor baino nor antza denez okerragoa eta partidoa ustez oso txarra izan zen. Hala ere, Super Bowl-eko finala bailitzan (edo nei behintzat ala iruditu zitzaidan) ikaragarrizko animazioa. Partido aurretik "talegating" deritzon prolegomenoa, hau da parking-ean al den zerbeza gehien edan ta gero ta edanago hobe. Gendea kotxe ikaragarri handiekin... ta hantxe ni sofa ta bañu bero bat zuen kamioi baten ondoan (bai ur beroa zun bañera bat) ikaragarrizko musika ekipoakin (argazkian ikus daiteke). 3 zerbeza edan, bizikleta trailer handi baten aurren aparkatu ta partidora.

Partidora sartu ta ikaragarrizko banda kanpo erdin (akojonau), animazio bikaina (bideoa ez da ona) ta bueno partidoa hastear. Nere lehen sorpresa 56 jokalari ekipo bakoitzeko!!! Bakarrik 11k jokatzen dutenean. Dena den partidoa oso entretenigarria, asko gelditzen dute partidoa baina banda denbora guztian musika jotzen zeon ta cheerleaderrak dantzan ta atentzioa deitu nahian ere asike ezin aspertu. 3 ordu in nitun han. Azkenean Rams 20- San Diego 23.

Kantikoak:
I said I´m proud of being a CSU RAM (ta errepikatu)!!
Go RAMS!!
Ta ez askoz gehio.

Partido bukaeran dator historia honetako zatirik onena. Nere bizikleta destrozatuta aurkitu nun aparkalekuan. (argazkik ikusi). bizikleta zakarrontzian dao dagoeneko ta grazia gutxi dena den, iada beste bizikleta bat utzi didate Fort Collins-en ibiltzeko asike ezin naiz kejatu ze estatu batuarrak oso ondo ari dira portatzen nerekin.

Argazkitan orain arte izan ditudan bizikleta guztik.

Lot of things to write but I have to filter all of them and I will just tell about the most american thing I did here. It was a american football match here and It was good but not with a good ending.


First of all, US in terms of sport is just a spectacle (unbelievable). The match I was seeing in the stadium was between universities (second division in europe). Rams (local team) is teh Colorado State University team against Aztecs (San Diego university, I guess). The match was terrible, both or them were playing a bad football. Anywais I didn´t care because I didn´t understand too much. The surprising thing for me was teh animation they have before, during and after the match. The band (see pictures) was playing all the time music to entertain people. Before the match the popular talegating, everyone tries to get drink as much beer as possible. So I was there before the match I drunk 3 beers and I went to the Hughes stadium to see the match.

The match begun and my first surprise, 56 players for each team when they were just 11 of them playing in the field (unbelievable). The match finished and the RAMs lost so people was kind of ungry and they broke my bike (rigth now is in the trash, you can see pictures). Anywais, people around me are really nice and they let me another one to ride around Fort Collins so it´s ok now.

Songs they were singing in the stadium:

I said I´m proud of being a CSU RAM!! (repeat)
GO RAMS!!
Not more.

My bike story is arge here in Fort collins so I show you all the bikes I have had until now.

Fort Collins!!

Bueno gende askorekin hitzegin det eta denei hemengo bizitzan pintzelada ezberdinak eman dizkizuet. Orain gutxigora behera fort Collins zer den deskribatzeko unea iritsi dela uste det.

Fort collins Colorado estatuaren iparraldean kokaturik dagoen 100.000 biztanleko hiri ikaragarri handia da. Kale printzipal batetik bestera distantziak oso luzeak dira, kotxe edo bizikletarik gabe hiri hontan galduta zaude. Autobusak garestiak izateaz gain gutxi daude, taxiak 10 bat eta garestiak, asike kotxea edo bizikleta beste ezer ez.

Nere etxea, unibersitateko kanpusan ondoan dago kokatuta, (ondo ezta???) ba ez. Nik lan egiten deten laborategia 7 bat km. ra dago kokatua hirian kanpoaldean asike kanpus-ean behin eon naiz eta ez det uste berriro jungo naizenik. Kanpusa gertu daola diodanean 2 km. izango dira (distantziak ikaragarriak).

Downtown (alde zaharra) izango zena 3-4 bat km.ra. Hor omen dao asteburutan giroa, Larunbatean kontatuko dizuet baina dagoeneko 4-5 pertsonek komentatu didate ez emozionatzeko.

Lana: Lan egiteko asmoakin etorri nitzan... baina lan plana gehiegizkoa da. Jefeei Igandez lan egitea gustatuko litzaieke (Larunbata antza denez lan eguna da) eta eguneko ez dira 8 ordu izango, 9h ta 30 minutu baizik. Kotxerik ez daukat asike besteei itxoin behar handik alde iteko.

Lankideak: Argentinoak eta USAkoak. Tipo majoak oraindik ondo ezagutzeko ez det aukera izan baina gu baino zaharragoak dira (argentinoak behintzat) denak neskakin bizitzen daude ta dexente asentatuta daude. Hau da, Larunbatetan parranda gutxi.

--------------- English version-------------------------------------------

It´s time to describe a little bit the place where I am living.

The city is located in the north of Colorado. It has 100.000 people and the city is big (at least for me). The distance from one main street to the other are big. One mile between each!! So you need a bike or a car. The public service is a shit and the taxis too!!

My flat is very big for me. I have two rooms, one kitchen, living room and a little garden just for me and the best of all is that I don´t have to pay anything. But I have to clean a lot!!!! As I have two rooms I accept visitor´s (you are invited) whenever you want, for those who likes skying I am near the best mountains of the US!!

About the job, I am working for Colorado State University. I am working 9 hours a day and the boss want to see me working during Saturdays and Sundays too. (so no efficient thursday´s this time).

The workers that are working with me in the lab, they are all from Argentina or USA (except my boss that is French!!). So I can speak spanish allmost all the time but I can continue practising my english too. This is different from Lulea but everything is going well. Next satruday the first party we will see, I hope I won´t have work on Sunday.

I will attach some pictures of my flat soon!!

Sala, sukaldea eta sukaldean daon gelatxoa--Living room, kitchen and the little room of the kitchen
