Weird moment of the day

This morning, while i was on my way to the uni ( i must say i was driving in the highway at more than 100km per hour), a guy suddenly crossed my way. I don't mean a guy driving another car..no, an actual human being that was crossing the highway, running with a plastic tube on his sholders...it's not something you see every day i must say, and i was really surprised...you must be really brave to attempt to cross a portuguese highway running...
so after this, i got to the conclusion that not only portuguese drivers are completly mad people with suicidal tendencies, normal pedestrians are suffering from the same insane symptoms too.

Quote of the day

No matter how careful you are, there's going to be the sense you missed something, the collapsed feeling under your skin that you didn't experience at all. There's that fallen heart feeling that you rushed right through the moments where you should've been paying attention, Well, get used to that feeling. That's how your whole life will feel some day

No wonder our perception of beauty is distorted

Depois de mostrar mulheres reais em suas campanhas, a marca Dove expõe agora a realidade por trás da publicidade que exibe mulheres maravilhosas. No site da campanha, um filme mostra a transformação de uma modelo - do rosto lavado com que chega para ser maquiada, penteada e posar para foto até o painel na rua exibindo um rosto perfeito. Passa também pelos retoques no Photoshop.

Time

Time flies. Time waits for no man. Time heals all wounds. All any of us wants is more time. Time to stand up. Time to grow up. Time to let go. Time.

The things you find on the net

"You can`t make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved, the rest is up to the person to realize your worth. We spend too much time looking for the right person to love or finding fault with those we already love, when instead we should be perfecting the love we give.

Free your heart from hatret;
Free your mind from worries;
Live simply.

Give more.

Expect less.

My hope for you is that you will finally discover the happiness within you"

Extracts from a poem by Heinz Shalloff.

It's always hard to say goodbye

"The universe may not always play fair, but at least it's got a hell of a sense of humor. "

Secondary effects of the university

This topic emerged last night after a lonf afternoon of work at the uni. Before going to the uni, teachers, parents, friends and others should warn us about the secondary effects of the university.
Here are some examples:
- uncontrollable laughter
- crazy ideas (i mean really crazy ideas)
- extremely important philosophical theories or rather dumb conclusions
- moments of complete happiness or total depression
- emergence of wield side of the student
- lack of hunger or constant need to eat (it depends on the personality and the level of stress)
- sudden need to scream
- moments of madness were you imagine yourself hiting a teacher or a member of your work group
- images of computers flying outside the window
- etc.

(if you have experience different side effects than the above, please share your experience with us. Is important to warn the future generations about the side effects of the so called great institution that is the university).
Best regards,
A traumatized student

Guerra com o teclado

Não sei se já vos aconteceu isto mas ultimamente ando numa guerra incrível com o teclado. Como se devem ter apercebido, de vez em quando aparecem aqui no blog uns posts com erros, ou sem acentos, ou mesmo com palavras que não existem. Admito que às vezes esses erros se devem à minha distracção ou mesmo falta de cuidado ao clicar em publish post sem ler antes o que escrevi. Mas muitas vezes acho que o teclado me prega partidas. Estes ultimos dias têm sido um suplício no messenger, nos blogs, etc. porque não consigo escrever bem as palavras. E o teclado não faz diferença nas línguas..tanto pode ser inglês, como português ou espanhol, está sempre a fazer das suas...
Começo a achar sinceramente que as novas tecnologias têm alguma coisa contra mim, porque desde o telemóvel, ao computador passando pelo mp3, estes aparelhos passam os dias a brincar com a minha sanidade mental...não se admirem se um dia de estes me virem a atirar o telemóvel ou o portatil pela janela fora..

Quote of the day

Childhood is what you spend the rest of your life trying to overcome. That's what momma always says. She says that beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most. Try to remember that when you find yourself at a new beginning. Just give hope a chance to float up. And it will.- Hope Floats

Solo hoy me cayo el peso del mundo

Llevo 3 semanas de clases, pero solo esta semana se me cayo encima el peso del mundo.
Ultimo ano, nuevos cambios, cosas que tenemos que hacer hoy pero tambien cosas que tenemos que pensar ya para el manana que esta en la puerta, tocando la campana.
Este semestre no quede en ninguna clase con mi tradicional grupo de amigos,pero tube la feliz sorpresa de encontrar otros amigos en mis clases. Por eso ahora tengo la oportunidad de convivir con personas diferentes, sin con eso dejar de hablar con mis loquitos lindos, mi familia.
Este ano me toca hacer semanalmente listas de cosas por hacer, porque no me puedo dar al lujo de dejar cosas para el dia siguiente. Nos tienen viviendo como alcoholicos en recuperacion, un dia de cada vez.
Ahora comienza a delinearse el futuro de cada uno. Cada persona que conozco va poco a poco tomando su rumbo, delineando lo que quiere hacer cuando termine, y aunque juntos, nos vmaos separando poco a poco. Es interesante descubrir lo que cada persona quiere hacer con su futuro, los planes, los suenos..todo.

Veremos durante el semestre donde nos llevaran esos planes y esos suenos...
