vasa!

Sometimes, we just want to disappear (or somebody else to...) not believing in what is happening.

Nobody dies due to a low self-esteem. What is more, time heals everything and tomorrow is another day! 

God works in mysterious ways. I'm pretty sure it was a blessing in disguise.

Let's live each moment as it comes, after all: what doesn't kill me, makes me stronger.

Deu o cano, agora vasa!

vida que segue...

Para o bem e para o mal. 

finally

It's not long until I can be myself, thoroughly,

again and for ever.

pour toujours

Oui, j'y crois!

tan rápido...

juggler life

Time flies! Sometimes, I just can't remember when exactly some things happened... Selective memory working, probably. No problem.

Life goes on... So much the better! After all, I sincerely don't know how it would be being a stewardess, marrying a clown (or being his eternal girlfriend! 'Wait' - that's not what I was born for! Not at all!). Or, even, maybe living in Italy... Who knows?!

By the way, I always thought I would have a dog... a big one (not a little kitty! - Life is very ironic! It can really surprise us - quite right too!) Well, we can't have everything... And I love what I've obtained, including all things I lost.

Choices and circumstances: c'est la vie! La mienne.

I can't complain about it... I live on borrowed time.

 

a força da natureza

É tudo uma questão de tempo...

 

Ninguém precisa derrubar!

winter solstice

Due to the theories of World's End, everybody forget... but it's winter! (or, for lucky people below: summer!)

In December 21, the sun was exactly at its southernmost point in the sky in the Northern Hemisphere. This means that, since then, days start to be longer. Finally.

Night at 4:30 PM depress... Just nine hours of sunshine a day it's very little. Not enough. NOT AT ALL! - mainly for me, a beach girl.

Hail to Vitamin D and omega-3 supplements!

de la culture, n'importe où

18h30 d'un jour de semaine... Il fait tout temps chaud dans le métro.

Il n'y avait pas du monde dans le vagon, seulement 18 personnes.

Une lisait le journal (pas les gratuits), une autre était à feuilleter une revue, et une troisième regardait attentivement un prospectus.

Deux autres écoutaient de la musique sur ses ipods, pendant deux autres jouaient sur ses mobiles (ou checkaient des messages...).

Cependant, ce qui a retenu mon attention, c'était le fait que huit passagers lisaiet des livres... parmi lesquels, plusieus appartenaient à la Grande Biliothèque! (son tampon est tellement apparent qu'il est impossible de ne pas remarquer!)

Les trois dernières ne regardait rien - peut-être les fenêtres, en attendant qui le temps passait vite... C'est pas fou, ça arrive.

La majorité des gens, donc, avait le savoir sur les mains durant le voyage! C'est bien.

J'aime ça d'ici, cette culture.

Des livres, ils nous apportent où bon nous semble. N'importe où.

avec beaucoup d'amour

Comme le temps passe rapidement! 
(presque six mois depuis notre mariage déjà...)

Nous sommes plus heureux que jamais. Alors, on profite de cette bonne phase pour remercier à tous amis et parentés pour votre générosité et affection.

Cela restera pour toujours en nos cœurs.

Merci! ♥

366 days passed

and one sureness:

Eating all the time can bring you love!

(furthermore, it is not fattening in my case. Blessed me!) 

___________________________________________________________

 However, (although my small tits) I hate the (Airplane!) jelly sensation, when, on the metro, everything shakes... (mainly which is "extra")

Gym now! 

so long!

We must enjoy every little moment in summer because it flies... When we realize, swallows are already leaving for south! 

While ants and squirrels wildly try to carry much food as possible (before arrive the time when bears hibernate), I attempt to stock as much as D vitamin I can. It's the last days taking sun in the skin, free of coats, jackets, overcoats, scarfs, hoods, bonnets and gloves.

Now, I'm catching on their rhythm... Maybe too late.

Well, many things we couldn't do this year, only in 2013... (Why? Because HE comes... the winter) It's a matter of cycle; here, the best season ends now... very early, so fast.

Next year, I WILL make up for lost (sunny) time.

too late

Past ghosts appear always at the wrong moment.

While single, they used to leave us in peace. On the other hand, when you are with someone else, they haunt.

Why they come? I have the impression that it's purposeful, maybe not even by them, but by circumstances... My theory: it's just to put us to the test, assessing our feelings, and focus.

Anyway, if they passed a long haul away, absent of our lives, things have changed since then. So, I wonder: Is it worth allow for them, making it real (again)?

I don't think so. After all, they had they time to make it happen before. Now, it's other's turn.

I'm not pushing my luck, putting it all on the line - not at all!

running

Landscape is changing. Autumn arrived.

Fields have closed due to the end of the season, while I keep running (trying to make up for lost time!).

Time flies... Impressive!

bonded!

Going too far? Too fast?

On the other hand, when it's (so) good, why not profit, get the most out of?!

Being distants, it's hard... Two nights, maximun! Phew, it's enough.

Easy. Excellent. Ripe. Infatuated.

 

bargain

Many things in life come as a freebie. Maybe even as a gift... We'll see.

I was not expecting win anything. So, everything going extra mile, is a gravy!

I can say I'm lucky. In fact, both of us - 27h is not for anyone.

reviewing old concepts

Well, I USED to say I enjoyed raisins… just because I really did! However, people change - me included! Now, I start to feel myself different about that (I confess I’m worried about time).

Wrinkles: it’s not exactly the matter, but the vigour and all the process related. Without that, for me it’s impossible to keep crushing on anyone, attracted… involved.  

Looking for maturity in men could mean for women a shooting in their own foot. Furthermore: a overripe bitter (unwished) taste.

baby phase

Well, ten years ago were the graduation ceremonies and memorable parties the major reason to celebrate; nowadays, alternatively, has occurred a baby boom in my friends circle - fact which deserves sublime happiness. On the other hand, it worries me.

Of course in our (early) twenties, many of us (began to have or) had children. However, nowadays, in (almost) thirties (or a little more yet), that situation makes me wonder myself if I’m delayed  about that, or, rather: if it will happen to me - and when.

Time runs… Some ‘nephews’ (sons of my generation people) are turning 10 this year! Many closer friends already have two kids inclusively! Other have been pregnant or have given birth recently... I reckon it hasn’t been the best time to live that - and I would regret if I had already had one, I admit.

Looking through the biological point of view, within the next years I must decide if I want to form a family, or not. Then, it will be my turn to become mother… and I hope that with a good husband by my side to take care of me and my offspring (after all, storks only bring us the babies, don't make them!).

peace of me

Specially this year I started to think about  forgiveness. I reckon it has been making me happier once it is not comfortable when we keep some kind of resentment inside us, bothering our minds.

I admit I would like to be a better person, who never carry any sore nor sorrow ahead. So, why not to show that? I’m trying to reach all possible peace - in my heart and thoughts. Bless me to do that - which isn't so easy! At least, it is somewhat I still haven't conquered until now.

Let time take its course… It heals any wound, making us even better souls!

something unless?

Well, It has been so strange live without television’s "presence" at home…

It is only a matter of time until I take mine back. Before, on the contrary, it was not my decision (inclusively and MAINLY the channel to watch it!). Equally House (of course!), I miss in particular the possibility to watch my movies on DVD.  

It seems like I am wasting my time doing nothing, alone. Nevertheless, I’m using this “free time” to bring up to date blog’s texts that I had written but I couldn't post until now due to technical problems.

I've never been away so long, or a mula nunca ficou tanto tempo sem rugir…(I always play upon words with the blog‘s name, in Portuguese indeed, because doesn’t make any sense in English) However, at this right moment, I’m at the peak of my glory - of writing my posts in English!

My ‘comps’ is my best present company in addition to the internet being something more powerful than the television was someday. Owing to this, I shouldn't miss it and enjoy this season with something unless (? - No, I don't think so...). 

nothing to lose

As soon as possible, when I will have just finished to up date this blog, I am going to be some kind of monster to these (online) days: I‘ll set aside the internet in my daily life as much as I can to giving a deep dive into some books I want to read. Another hobby I’m going to dedicate myself acutely is going to the cinema more often.

Accessing it everyday, a long period during all the day long, is practically impossible to enjoy these other arts as I’m decided to do. I want to take a cultural shower from these sources. Therefore, it’s necessary give a limit to this new media as mothers did in the past with children who used to stay many hours in front of television…

Books - all the best! (in any time, for everybody…) No restrictions, no waste of time.
