I feel that I have so many things to start....

#83

It's going to be the "Bach's Cello Suites" =)

[#2 I've heard that becoming a donnor doesn't hurt...it's just by giving a blood sample! I think that what really hurts it's when you have to give the marrow, if someones need it

#10 yeah, I thought in that one too, but we use it for the Zodiac sign also called Cancer...in portuguese "Caranguejo", so I didn't have sure

#29 Well, I liked the "End of the Affair" ;)

#12 Just have to see where their office in Lisbon is :P

(You want cards from "hard countries to get", I'm seeing...)

#87 No... I stood so sad and thoughfull... There's such a tiny line between life, dreams, madness, luck, reality...]

Sandra's 101 Things to Do in 1001 Days

On Friday I read for the first time (and I stood very happy with it) the 101 Things to do in 1001 days of my friend Sandra. I talked with her about it some days ago, occasionally, and this week she has join the craziness and started her own list too. The funny thing it’s how in reading her things my mind automatically was thinking “I can do this with her!”, “I want to this too”, “I also want to take more photographs”, and so on. It’s also good to see that I’m included in one or two of her “to do” things, like the one of the picnic or the other of being part in one of her journeys =)

Now it’s going to be funny to show the lists to other friends and see their reaction =)
(if Manela and Sandra can go with you to Madrid to the museums-tour, you three can also go with me to Italy or Czech Republic…after all we still have many days to plan it!!)

(and yes, I have to take a photo of you and your list…after all, you’re my #30)

Hard Questions

Reading this week newspaper I saw a movie advertise that I simply loved. It has one of those “smarty-and-intelligent” lines (in this case, a question) that I couldn’t resist to, and yes, I even cut it to put it in my agenda. After a little research on the internet about it I saw that was the poster of the so spoken film “Smulldog Millionaire”. I knew that the film had won the some golden globes, that has several nominations for the oscares and someone had already told me about it something like “it’s a film where we learn very much about people, about how they are”. Despite all that the little thing that really conquered me to want to see the film was that simple question…

Which will be the right answer?

Studying...

...the gym prices and timetables!!

Cold

Today it’s the coldest day of winter in Portugal.
Despite the cold, the shudder when we go out, the news that shows the “special-plans” for the homeless and coldest areas, and the “orange alert” in most of the continent regions, I am sure that definitely we are not a cold country. First, the coldest year, in Lisbon, has temperatures between 0º and 9º C (last year, in April, I was in France and in Paris during the day was always between 0º and 9º C) and, secondly, because I found out that I don’t know were my pair of gloves is. If we were a really cold country I should have about 5 pairs of gloves, a woollen hat (or something to put in the head) and wear about 3 pairs of socks at the same time. I looked to people today and or they don’t know of their gloves also, or the cold in Portugal is not so unbearable. And I’m tilted for this last one.

Today I also bought a Pearl Jam DVD.
Pearl Jam is probably my “adolescence band”. I am perfectly remembered that my first CD was from Pearl Jam (before that I only had some vinyl records of don’t-know-very-well-what) and I get it in one of my birthdays. When I entered the store I was far of imagine that I would be buying that DVD few moments later. It wasn’t expensive and what captured my attention was the songs-alignment. In the first line I read “Long Road” and right away in my mind a voice talked “Long Road?? Wow, a rare song in the opening of a DVD”… my eyes kept reading and the voices in my mind also “Dissident also? I only had this one in a tape! “It’s OK” – what music should be this??” and the almost 30 songs convince me to take it. No “Black”, No “Alive”, No “Last Kiss”… Like they say on the little pamphlet “…a half a bottle of wine left to go and the perfect atmosphere to break out an obscure b-side”. The DVD is playing for about an hour and I’m glad for had bought it. It feels good to hear all this songs so many years after. To notice that I still remember the lyrics and the feelings that they gave me in that time =)
