CaAp's Intro

This entry will be a sort of introduction rather then a commentary on some architectural specimen. My name is Cesar A. Parra, aka “da Godfatha”. I am a recent graduate from NJIT. As of September 2004 I have joined the working world of Architecture. For those of you that are still in school, I suggest you stay in school for as long as possible. If I could get paid to go to school I would do it at a drop of a dime. Unfortunately I haven’t met anyone that has offered to pay for me to get more degrees. Enough about me, you will get to know me and my views in my future entries into this Blog.

I’d like to thank our host Matt Klein. He’s been “geekin” over this blog since its mental conception. As much fun Matt is he happens to be a closet geek. Still though he has given us a stage where our voices can be heard here In my opinion it is not only wanted but very much needed. I believe we need new blood and new ways of maneuvering through our Architecture society. Thanks Matt.

For those of you that like to read there is a new architectural magazine I just picked up this weekend. The magazine is called, “Volume”. It isn’t your ordinary architectural magazine. I have yet to read the entire issue but what I have read is really interesting and outside the mundane as far as subject matter. You should be able to pick it up at your local architectural magazine store. I picked mine up at Urban Center located on Madison.

Finally I’d like to congratulate fellow alumnus Ralph Justo, aka “Mr. Santi” and future alumnus Maria Espino, aka “Giggles”. These two have now entered upon a new plateau in there lives. They are the parents of a new healthy baby girl. The only detail I have is that her name is Daniel Justo. Welcome Daniel. You have arrived at a time where there is turbulence and chaos however with the youth there is hope. With hope there is the promise of a better way.

Sorry no pictures in this blog, it is my first and I wrote it on the fly. Next time it will be much better, I promise.
