Tomorrow the Lost last episode will be aired on TV. There are millinos of people who will be watching how the Hurley, Sawyer, Kate and Jack will end up. I am one of them; I started to wacth Lost only two months ago; which made me one of the lucky one; I didn't have to wait years to see how the Lost adventure was going to end. By the same token, the official summer break has strated for my kids. It means a lot of swimming and other outside activities. Leandro and I have planned to practice a lot of baseball to get him ready for middle school. Isabella wants me to go to the pool every day. Though I will be working, I trust my ability to perform and fulfill my kid's expectations. So Lost is over and summer is here, what a great timing: less time sitting down and more time outside.
My kids will appreciate time spent with their parents; and we will appreciate them forcing us to move farther, harder and faster. The king has died; long lived the King!
******Did I say we are having a big celebration tomorrow?*****

Lost
I have to thank my friend James "Jimmy the boy" for hooking me and Susana with Lost. I remember hearing about the show few years ago; however, we never watched it; why? I really don't know. We never put much attention to what is going on TV. So finally, five years later, Jimmy got the best of us and the magic of the show did the rest.
What took millions of people six years, has taken us around two months; we are almost there: we are currently watching season five. We have sumerged ourselves in the magical world of Lost.
Our imagination revolves around numbers, Jacob, Ben, Sawyer, John, us and the others. I guess Lost is a parody of life, of our life, of your life and the life of the others.
To live is just as fantastic as it is the polivalent world of Lost. We are navigating a process which purpose becomes the road to cover. It appears that the goal of the life is life itself. Sometimes I wonder about the millions and millions of people who have already done the trip and have been forgotten in the anonimity of history.
We too will forget Lost until the next time we meet Jimmy Boy, who without hesitation will hook us with another virtual adventure until we become Lost!

Cheerleading
Today the whole family went to the Knoxville cheerleading compettion. It was great to see those girls and boys united under one roof dancing with highly sync moves. Susana and I agreed that cheerleading is a unique American sport. We were impressed by the stern actitude of all involved in the event; which started with the US National anthem.
The competition lasted around 4 hours with groups from the greater Knoxville and other close-by cities.
Isabella's team did so well that it has been invited to participate in the state of Tennessee championship this coming saturday at Nashville. The competition will be hard; teams from all over the state will be competing there. I truly hope that our team does well.
In any case whatever happens, it has been a great learning experience for the whole family.
See you in Nashville,
