I woke up from 30 to 30 minutes with the alarm clock, until 11 am, when I realized I should start to move if I wanted to meet my friend at 12h30 in Philly. I don’t know why someone can be so tired all the time like me. Sometimes I just think I am sick.. but I am not. I always was a bed lover… and I am able to be there forever.
But thank God I had something planned because the day was great. I met my friend and we went for lunch at Gigi, a nice small restaurant in the Old City neighborhood. Then we did some tourism – Liberty Bell, Constitution Center, South Street. It was nice to understand more the Constitution creation, and the process. I love to see how Americans are patriot. Brazilians would not care less for a bell… but here there is a big and important meaning, and I kind of like that. I realized how general knowledge about USA is small, and if one day I decide to apply for citizenship I will need to study for the questions… more…
I felt kind of lost today. It is hard to be by myself.. I mean, I enjoyed it… but I felt guilty for not being producing more.I woke up to prepare Jan’s breakfast, and I was so sleepy that I dropped all the coffee on the floor.. so I had to clean, and he was anxious… not a good combination: carol trying to be nice + Jan agitated around me. So I wait him to go to work (that sounds weird) and I came back to our bed.
I set the alarm clock unsuccessful to 10am, but I woke up at noon. First moment of guilty of the day. more…
The day was based at home today… loved it! Oh God, it is hard to keep my mom calm inside my home. No, it is not that she does not like here, the problem is that she thinks it is a waste of time to be at home if she can go outside and enjoy shopping and different views. But today I was not feeling well; a pain in my back made me want to be home. I decided to stay home and get some things ready for our move. more…
Ok, that is a kind of joke. I only have my wrist as thin as hers… She tried my watch and got impressed that a girl like me (with some extra pounds) could have the same wrist as her (with some fewer pounds)
I don’t if that means that I can be thin one day or she will be fat! hehehehehehe more…
I gave up a long time ago. It is just impossible to keep on diet with my family, especially in Curitiba where everyone wants us to try something new or cooks delicious receipts. The activities in my parents apartment continue with total strength. Unfortunately they still don’t have internet. I use only at my aunt’s home (at night) and this weekend here in the beach, Pontal do Sul, where other aunt has a home. Here is to relax and EAT! more…
The post today could be 2 movies synopses – a comedian and a drama respectively.
The first one is about my meeting yesterday with my 2 best friends at college. We were inseparable. Always together. That is way our nickname was “Three Marie’s”. It was so good to talk, have dinner, a good wine and laugh with them. I missed those moments so much, more than I could realize. The good aspect of intense friendships, is that no matter the time without contact, when together all the emotions and feelings appear again. more…
That was even faster… I can’t believe it was one week ago that we went to Indianapolis… I can’t believe one more week of my project is gone… it has been so fast that is frightening. First time I brought work from home… for the weekend… there are so many things that I need to do and these two days need to be productive! Actually I already have a movie afternoon with girls tomorrow – Sex and the City 2! more…
Beautiful day for a tour in Cincinnati after sleep 12 hours! I felt so good and relaxed! We started out tour in Loveland, a city with a romantic name, just 30 min from downtown. It is a small city, with nice homes, and we decided to go and see a famous castle there. It was not a french style, but it was ok. It cost us $3 per each to see 10 min of rooms and a garden. Actually we went to that city because it will be where a couple of friends will leave at the beginning and we wanted to know how it looks like. more…
Nice Saturday! Friends at lunch and dinner. Family is better. I cleaned my home and went to the gym. I even both a Cosmpolitan magazine to feel more like a madam hahahaha. Actually, it was a good day to recharge my batteries for what I need to do until Wednesday, when I will be actually done!
Basically I had a barbecue with my section classmates and from some second years. It was pretty good… and I started my gastronomic day with a hamburguer! I think was the first time I had a traditional American barbecue … hamburguers! All the other times I went to one I didn’t eat it. After that I spent some time in grocery store and came home to cook! more…
I just woke up and a friend of mine asked if I everything is fine, since she didn’t see a new post from yesterday! First, of course I liked to realize again that there are people that read my blog everyday; second, I feel guilty about not having written yesterday! The problem was: I started to watch a movie with my husband and, of course, I fell asleep. He didn’t want to wake me up just because the blog…. so I just woke up today! more…
