running away
My good friend Horacio and I are looking for scholarships, for doing master studies abroad. Waht Horacio wants is to live of philosophy. What I want is to leave this country, to leave my family, to erase my past... at least for the time it takes to finish the postgrade.
I have proved I am an unattractive product in the labour market. So I'm going into academics, because I'm getting old and still haven't got a place to get laid. Maybe there creativity and bohemian habits will be recognized as a virtue and not as a problem.
I want to research on Development Economics because, when I come back, I want to help this country to turn into something else, anything else. I don't know where the future will find me: Japan, Switzerland, Germany, Canada, China, Italy... Maybe I will have to stay here and die unhappy but I want to live intensely and leave a smile on my corpse.
