My first time at Sonic

So, here is a funny story....talk about cultural shock?? here is an example for you :)
Summer 2009, Arizona, freaking hot....I am hungry and for some reason I am carless, therefore I decide to hop the fence and walk to Sonic, which is about 7-8 minutes walking distance (12 minutes if you don't hop the fence). Keep in mind the only reason I went there was because I didn't feel like walking more than that in a hot summer day. I had never been at Sonic (America's Drive-In) before and I thought it was a normal fast food restaurant. I get there and I start looking for the door...I find one I open it and then I close it real quick because I realize it is the door to the kitchen. hmmm, I start walking around the building once...and I see no door....I walk twice and still see no door...but there are cars in line for the drive in, and they are all looking at me weird...go figure! At one point I decide that I am going to do it! I open the door, a guy turns around and asks me: "May I help you?". I simply answer: "Yes, can I have a cheesburger?". The dude's response is just as simple: "First time at Sonic (America's Drive-In) huh? Let me show you how it works"....Embrrassing enough....Why can't it work like any other fast food place on the globe???

World Cup Reflections: Final thoughts

Who would have guessed an all european final before quarter finals? Well, in my ESPN bracket prediction I guessed Spain-England as a final game...I haven't been too good with all my predictions so I am not going to predict who will win, but I will only say who I hope will win.


I hope Uruguay and Netherlands will win their games. That's it!


Regardless, I hope you all enjoyed this magnificent event and I can't wait for Brazil 2014!


See you there ;)

World Cup Reflections: Semi-finals

We have arrived at the semi-finals with a lot of drama, surprises and bad refereeing.
Tomorrow morning (my time) Uruguay will face the Netherlands in a match that could be historical for the both of them. Nobody has been able to score more than one goal to Uruguay so far, but we also have to remember that they did not face any strong team. Netherlands just beat Brasil, so they are probably very pumped, but they have to be careful not to underestimate Uruguay. I got right only two of the last four predictions, but I am pretty confident when I say that Netherlands will get the first ticket to the final game.
Wednesday, the surprising Germany will face Spain; I say surprising because I don't know how many people pictured Germany so incredibly strong this year. They are very hungry, after losing in the semi-finals four years ago in their homeland, so they want to win, and win big!
Spain on the other hand hasn't been that strong so far. David Villa has been scoring almost every goal, so the question is: if he happaned to have a bad day, who would score? Spain barely beat Paraguay (definitely not the strongest team), and struggled a little to beat Portugal and Chile.
If Germany had to score first it would be extrememly hard for Spain to come back.
My prediction is that Germany will face Netherlands in the final game!

Was Judas saved?

Not long ago I got into this interesting conversation with a family friend and somehow we ended on this topic: was Judas saved? This friend said he had done his research and had come to a conclusion but he wouldn't share it with me, saying that I should have done my own research on it.
Well the very next day I did... I started researching Bible verses on the topic and look up the original Greek words for some key passages and I also came to my conclusion...
Now I would like to know if you have an opinion about this topic and what it is...
Here are some questions to help you out:

-Does the Bible clearly say that he accepted Christ?
-Did he repent or did he just regret what he did?
-If he was saved, did he lose his salvation after what he did? or was he ever saved?

Please post a comment I am curious to hear everybody's opinion on this!
