vertebrae, which you've had since birth.

Otherwise, you'd be screaming

in pain, so it's not that.

Are you dizzy? No.

Just do some fitness training

and lighten up your backpack.

There's nothing serious,

nothing at all.

You see...

Those reports are written by kids

in laboratories or hospitals

who write

down everything to protect

themselves.

They're not perfect.

What can you do?

If you want to worry, go ahead,

but not about that.

You're the same.

Until I can work as an architect,

I'm designing shop windows.

It distracts me

from other thoughts.

I think of the windows

as lost places.

They're neither inside

nor outside.

An abstract and magic space.

They reflect a pan of me.

At the same time,

the anonymity calms me.

Maybe it's stupid, burl think:

If someone stops to look,

they're somehow interested in me.

I've had this book since I was 14.

And forgive me, great writers,

but it's a key book in my life.

It's the origin of

my fear of crowds,

which has become existential.

It dramatically represents

the fear of knowing

I'm one lost person among millions.

Years have passed and I still can't

solve one of the puzzles:

"Wally in the City".

I found him shopping,

at the airport and the beach,

but not in the city.

Perhaps my nerves

have blinded me.

So I'm wondering:

If I can't find a person

when I know who I'm looking for,

how can I find a person when

I don't know who I'm looking for?

"Hi, I'm Sus,

part stuffed animal and part dog."

Seven years ago, my girlfriend

visited her parents

in New Jersey, USA.

She wanted to stay for a few weeks.

As painful as it was for her,

she called me collect to say

she wasn't coming back.

It was her new home and she'd

realised she was very American.

Ingenious! She felt very American

when Argentina was devalued.

The truth is, there wasn't much

to keep her here: me and her dog.

She left her with the best

of intentions too.

She claimed the change in language

would be too difficult for her.

You know planes make me nervous.

Please take the rock I travel with.

- You've only travelled once.

- Well, it worked.

It's my kabbalah. Do it for me.

Alright.

AH at once,

I lost the woman I loved

and my ability to fly.

Hello, this is Mariana.

Leave a message after the beep.

Hello, hello. Are you there?

Alright. I just wanted

to tell you that tonight

a great film will be on TV

with Bill Murray

and the groundhog.

And because you took the TV,

I thought we could watch it together.

Pick up. I know you're there.

Are you with a guy?

You screwed me!

How can you be close

to someone so different?

That's the stupid conclusion

after a four-year relationship.
