Life in Brazil and Perserverence!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 25oC, hottish and a clear sky. Sunday is always a special day. Especially when you have something special to do, you are at peace, and it is a beautiful day. It is a day where you can do whatever you want with whoever you want, or even just with yourself. I got up and went […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 22oC, sunny and slightly overcast. It is Thursday and almost the weekend, and I feel a little guilty. I have not been able to develop or do anything with the sites in the last couple of weeks. This is due to not knowing exactly what I want for each site and its identity. I also […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, overcast and rain. It is the middle of the week again, and everything is going smoothly; I am exercising and working. Yasmin is doing well at school and is on holiday until the 1st of August. Nalva, because she worked one week straight in Sao Paulo, is off from work until the following Monday. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. Today, I woke up stiff from yesterday’s hour of skipping. It feels very good knowing that you did a lot of exercise and that you and your body are receiving the rewards. At the moment, Tuesdays and Thursdays are my busiest days. I have classes from 7 a.m. to 7 […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, warmish and slightly overcast. It is Friday at the end of the working week. Work this week has been relatively light compared to other weeks. I wonder whether this has been because Nalva is travelling or that just everything has worked relatively well without any drama or confusion. Returning to what I had written before, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warm and sunny. Monday, the beginning of the week, and everything is good. After a nice weekend, it is easier to start the week well. I have an early class at 7 am. The idea is to give the class and then go out and exercise, as the next class will only be at midday. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, warm, overcast, rainy and stormy. After a perfect Friday and Saturday, it would be asking too much for Sunday to be as good as the last two days, but it was all right. It was more of a simpler, easy-going day than one of wining and dining. I was up at 6 pm and […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 29oC, hot, Sunny and slightly overcast. It’s Sunday, the day after a lovely night with friends I hadn’t seen in a while. What I also found nice is that when I’m socializing with friends and family now, I don’t feel the need to drink too much. A couple of years ago, I wouldn’t have known when […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, warmish and sunny. It is late afternoon, almost evening. I have worked out, worked, had a rest, and now I am bored. Yasmin is at home doing her things; Nalva said she would arrive later than usual, so I need to do something and go somewhere. After some contemplation, I decided to walk around Flamengo, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 25oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. It is already Wednesday; half the week has already passed, and that is a good sign. Like anything else in life, if it is going slowly, there is something wrong. When it is fast, things are usually going the right way without too much stress. The classes are going well, […]
