About Me

I was born in june 29th 1994, to mexican parents.
When I was 2 years old I learned to talk and walk, and I started to experiment with music.
At age 5, I got my first guitar.
All that time I lived in the south part of town (where downtown is), but when i entered fifth grade, i changed to what its supposed to be the "suburbs", but i wouldn't call it like that.... its just part of the city.
Nevertheless, I made a lot of new friends and all that stuff that teenagers are supposed to do.
The change from elementary to middle school was rather difficult for me, because in elementary I was "the A/B" guy of the class and when I entered middle school, the "magic" worn out. Everything was very tight until finishing 8th grade; then it all took a better course, and I was back to be an "A/B" student (like most of my classmates)
I think of myself that I'm a bit weird, but with a nice personality. "Alonso is an honest and funny guy, and VERY extroverted", my classmates comment (I am not a bit egocentric, so I asked...). I like psychedelic stuff, history and contermporary world classes, art (especially impressionism) and music.
Music is a very important part of my life (just like my dad's), in part because I have been interested since I was a little kid. I'm always practicing guitar and piano, and I even have a band (Collateral Damage). The music I like is mostly rock (alternative like Radiohead)and electronic (but much less techno, like Daft Punk): anything out of it does not enter in my judgement or interest.
I also am a sportsman: I practice karate two days a week and go to the gym 3 days: fridays are free!
I like partying, being with my friends... you know, having a good time.
When I finish college I'd like to be a corporative administration or an specialist in international relations, but I know there's a long way to go. Im very interested in the possible future of humanity, and I am curious of how will it end or continue.
