Spoiler alert...Atenção spoiler!
Finished reading this book a week ago and I must say like so many other books of Ceclia Ahern it did not impress me, granted it is easy to read and easy story to follow but, what the hell is this story of a diary that writes the tomorrow entry today and by itself? I know it is supposed to feel magic but it is a book for adults....not a fairy tail...anyway despite that it is still a good book to read in the tube, or in the metro (if you don't live in London), or in the bathroom...lololol don't think it's anything super great, however the cover is quite cute! :)
Acabei de ler este livro há uma semana e devo dizer que, como tantos outros livros da Cecilia Ahern, não me impressionou lá muito. É verdade que é muito fácil de ler e a historia náo tem muito que se lhe diga por isso é facil de seguir. Mas que raio, qual é a ideia de pôr na historia um diário que escreve a entrada de hoje amanhã e ainda por cima sozinho?? Eu sei que é suposto ser mágico e tudo mais, mas este é um livro para adultos não é uma história de encantar....De qualquer modo é um bom livro para ler no metro ou na casa de banho...lololol realmente não o achei mesmo nada de especial, no entanto a capa é muito fofa! :)
PS- this comment will only apply to the portuguese version.
Este texto não foi, não é e nunca será escrito ao abrigo do acordo ortográfico ( que nem sequer existia qd eu deixei Portugal). recuso-me a escrever deliberadamente com erros! as Helenas serão sempre Helenas, os factos serão sempre factos e não fatos e afins! :)
down memory lane..
today I went back to the city where I lived before moving to London...and what a surprise it was, it didn't feel the same...it didn't feel like home anymore...for 3 years I lived there and I saw it as my home away from home, but today was not like that...the shops are not the same, the roads look different...not sure if i felt happy or sad, not sure what I felt...maybe all my ties to leicester have been severed, maybe my home now is here...and it is so strange!!!
I guess is like my mum says, home is where you are happy, and that is here...at least for now! :)
Hoje voltei à cidade onde viví antes de mudar para Londres...surpreendentemente não me soube ao mesmo...já não me soube a casa...viví lá três anos e sempre vi o sítio como um lar longe do meu lar, mas hoje não foi assim...as lojas não são as mesmas, as ruas parecem diferentes...não sei bem se me senti feliz ou contente, não sei bem o que senti...talvez todos os laços que tinha com
Leicester foram cortados...talvez a minha casa agora seja aqui....e é tão estranho!!!
Talvez seja como diz a minha mãe, lar é onde somos felizes e feliz eu agora sou aqui..pelo menos para já! :)

i woke up, got dressed, went to this amazing bakery...got back home and had breakfast...nice bread nice scone, strong coffee....and now here I am ...writing and interestingly enough feeling well....
It's cold outside, sunny but cold...I missed this cold air that wakes u up...this is the only thing I really like in the UK, it can be really cold...and you eventually have to snuggle up in all this nice accessories such as hats and scarves and gloves and to be honest....I CAN'T WAIT! :)
Acorder, vesti-me e fui uma padaria muito boa ali do outro lado do rio Tamisa...voltei para casa e comi...bom pão, um bom scone e um café forte...e agora aqui estou...a escrever e interessantemente sinto-me bem...Lá fora esta frio, um dia solarengo mas frio...já tinha saudades deste ar frio que nos acorda...esta é a única coisa que eu relamente gosto no Reino Unido, é que consegue ser mesmo frio...e eventualmente temos que nos aconchegar em acessorios como chapéus, cachecois, luvas e para ser muito honesta....MAL POSSO ESPERAR! :)

Jack Johnson-Good People
i am super close from finishing my PhD, yes I am now in correction stage and today I am at home taking care of finishing this...the thing is, all week has been grey weather, and today that I have to stay at home and I really have to it is good weather???like really sunny...in any other weekend I would go to greenwich have a coffee at the bookshop while reading a book, or would go to the food market and eat some food from elsewhere in the worrld...but no, this is all in my head! TODAY I will seat in front of the computer all day and correct my discussion...oh LORD!
anyway I will probably do it at the sound of this...
Eu estou muito perto de terminar o meu doutoramento, sim, estou agora em fase de correcções, eu hoje estou em casa a tratar de acabar isto...o problema é o seguinte, toda a semana esteve um tempo cinzento e hoje que eu tenho que ficar a casa está um tempo magnifico?? tipo, solinho...noutro fds qualquer eu iria a greenwich beber um cafezito in livraria enquanto lia um livrinho, ou então iria ao mercado de comidas internacionais comer assim uma coisinha do outro lado do mundo...mas não, hoje isso é tudo na minha cabeça..HOJE vou'me sentar em frente ao computador todo o diae corrigir a minha discussão...Oh Lord!!
de qualquer modo, provavelmente vou fazer isto ao som disto!

The Gift Five minutes of everything
this song is the soundtrack of my London...in a strange way when this song is in my headphones London looks like my london and not the London city without soul...and I smile...I don't know why...I really don't....but it's like I am another person in another place....
I love this song!
Esta musica é a banda sonora da minha Londres...de um modo estranho quando ouço esta música Londres é a minha Londres e nao a cidade de Londres a cidade sem alma...E eu sorrio...nem sei porquê...não sei mesmo...mas é como se eu fosse outra pessoa num outro sitio!
adoro esta música!

Upset / chateada
the other day I was in my office and a superior comes about, ah Nessi would you like to move to another office? and I said, yeah, actually I wouldn't mind ...
Today: someone else that was supposed to go to that office, ah Nessi you nicked my spot.
Nessi answer: well I did not nick anything I was asked to go there I DID NOT ask to go there...
I got upset!!!
No outro dia estava eu no meu escritorio, vem de la um superior e diz me, ah e tal Nessi gostarias de mudar de escritorio? e eu disse, ah por acasoa te nem me importava...
Hoje: o cromo que afinal era suposto mudar-se para la (mas que eu nem sequer sabia que ia mudar), ah e tal Nessi, roubaste-me o meu lugar naquele escritorio.
Resposta da Nessi: Bem, eu nao roubei nadinha, eu fui mandada para aquele escritorio, nao pedi para mudar para la!
Que raiva, fiquei chateada!

why do I write in engllish?
many of you may think that I am a bit snob because being portuguese I write my blog in english...the only reason I do that is because my other half, the love of my life is not portuguese...and since he is topic of many of my posts and being a great guy is surely the only one that spends some time looking at this blog I thought i should write in a language that he can actually read!
So, there you go!
I am thinking though in maybe writing the posts from now onwards in both languages! i will try!
till my next post!!

Life in London
Today I woke up, like everyday, at 7.00 am...to then jump out of the bed at 7.20. Got out of the house already late, and it was hot and sunny and I was even wearing sunglasses...I got in the tube emerge 45 min later in the centre and surprise surprise, what do I see??? RAIN!!!
Yes rain...and obviously I got upset because:
1) I did not bring appropriate shoes for rain
2) I was still with my sunglasses in the head (looking like an alien)
3) my mascara (rimmel) it is not waterproof...
So I almost run to work, to try to avoid getting wet feet and black face...
and it has been raining since...I just hope it improves until it's time to leave otherwise, will get home with wet feet and black face!! lolololol
Hard life in the city!

I am who I am....lolololol
This blog is in a way my very public diary..here is where i write what I feel, what I think and what I wish for the future...
Because of that I understand it can sometimes be a bit boring, to personal or even just dull...but it is my life, my experiences, my view of the world, perhaps just a view of my world...but it is what it is, sometimes boring, sometimes exciting (but not as many times as boring) ...it is in fact a reflection of who I am...sensible, inconstant, bit crazy...this is who I am...and I hope someone enjoys reading this blog...
I know I enjoy writing it quite a lot!
till my next post!!
PS- sorry that the background changes all the time...I am trying to decide which one I like the best!

Harrods @ Knightsbridge, London
On saturday I went for the first time to Harrods!
and OMG....I must say I was offended...there was a chandelier that was costing close to £3000...at some point I went to Oscar de la Renta stand and saw an amazing skirt, I was all happy explaining my boyfriend how much I usually like OdlR collections and la la la and all of the sudden I look at the price tag and I see £2650...two thousand???I mean come on, what are the clothes made with? gold??diamond? at some point I started to feel offended really...but the thing that annoyed me the most was that there were loads of ppl buying! there were people buying dresses and skirts for over 2000 pounds!
It kind of makes you wonder doesn't it? so many people that has nothing to eat and some schmucks have enough money to buy clothes that are apparently made of gold...
the world is very unfair!

Going back to work after a great weekend is the hardest thing...and my mind is so not here...
I feel like I need something radical to happen!
How can I go and stay at the same time? I wish I could...
I wish I could close my eyes and there you go , me and you as it should be!
I wish...I wish...I wish...
Love you!

this is me and you..
" life is not how many breaths you take, it is the moments that take your breath away"
from someone...not sure who!
from someone...not sure who!
Now he is here...now he is not!!
And the great weekend finished...Liverpool street is always going to be in my memories as the station where I have to say "see you soon" to my love...why is it that two people that love each other like we do have to go through this?
We are together for 3 years and a half...and in this time it has been hard...the times we were away, but now we have jobs at the opposite ends of the same country...it's so hard...our love is so pretty, so strong and so filling...he has this special gift of making me feel like there is only 2 people in the world....always makes me feel great! he is the best thing that have ever happened to me...now the only thing I can do is wait for the next great weekend!
I love him so so much!

shoppinggggggggggg!
Shopping is something that always make my mood, but not always in a good way...sometimes I go for a shopping session in order to get in a better mood and by the time I leave I am so so down...
I am guessing that we all had that urge of going shopping and buy something amazing and then you get there and either what you like doesn;t fit you or doesn;t look good in your body shape, or there is nothing really appealing although the notes are almost jumping from your wallet! I get stressed and upset when this happens...
But then there are the days when I go shopping and I come home completely new...not just with new clothes (and with no money left in my wallet) but actually feeling good about myself! Those are the days when I say that I have been to some shopping therapy! :)
Today, after work I will go with the love of my life to some nice shopping therapy, but today I am sure that even if I don't find anything, if I don't like anything or nothing looks good on me at all, I will still feel great about myself cause he will be there with me!
being in Love is so nice!!! :)

babies
I have been reading this blog which I find very amusing and at the moment everything she talks about it's her baby...her newborn baby....
by reading it made me realise how much I want one too!!
I always wanted babies but always thought it's not time yet I am not ready, life is not structured...but when I come to think about it i really think I am ready, it is time and I really Want ONE!
:)
till next time !

life is not always pink!
yesterday started as such a nice day, sunny, pretty warm...and at some point, not sure when, everything went downhill...I started feeling down and ended the day crying...but it was not sadness, it was build up stress from so many things...today I feel slightly better, I still have easy tears and I still feel down...but somehow the crying helped, released all the feelings,all the frustations and somehow did the trick...Feel slightly better...
Till my next post!

Sunny LONDON!!
Today is an amazing day here in London...I woke up naturally only with the sun coming in from the window...i did not dream, I slept like a baby, and in a lot of time I did not feel down and grumpy I actually felt happy...I still miss him so so much, I am still thinking in a possibility in a solution, but at least today the sun is shinning and for some minutes, hours or even the whole day I actually feel alright!
I am a happy woman, and if it wasn't for his absence (for work reasons) i would for sure be someone complete and so so happy!
But as I said before, today is sunny and everything seems easier, and prettier and I feel well!
Enjoy the sun, if you are back home go to the beach and please don't complain about the heat cause in a couple of months it will be grey and rainy and cold and ugly and we will all feel not as good as today, let's save the complaints for that day!shall we??

the 3 basic rules to happiness
this is the name of the movie I saw last night...It wasn't a great movie it was just so so but at some point in the movie the female character said the 3 rules she follows to live her life...and I thought that this rules were pretty good...they made sense, so here they are:
1) Don't take advice from someone you wouldn't trade places with;
2) try no to do things you can't take back;
3) something is what it is and it is not something else;
And after giving some thought to this rules I realised that she is right, I think rule number 3 is very important....think about it, how many of you have analysed something a guy did or said so much that whatever he said now has a totally different meaning? But is it the meaning he meant?NO! Because something is what it is and NOT something else. I realised that if you live our life by this rule we will be a lot happier, because we will not spend half of our time trying to find the hidden meaning in a word or a gesture, because girls, let's face it man aren't as deep as we are, when they speak there are words in what they say not metaphores...and therefore what they say is what they say and not something else....
and this is it...I hope the rules help you living ur life fully!

if it has to happen will happen to me...that is a fact!
I know I used this blog mainly to complain and for some of my readers this may read as a sad blog, but that has never been the intention of this blog, actually this blog was supposed to be a real narrative of my adventure in this great country!
So I will try to go back to it...I wil try to be more cheerful and happy...as I promised someone very dear to me I will enjoy life more! (or at least try)
the only problem of this amazing plan is that I am a pessimist by nature, I truly believe that if something bad may happen it definetely happens to me...and this my friends, this is a huge block on the way to happiness...
today i decided to play along with this and against all odds I didn't go to work, and why? Because there is a 24h strike in the London underground and I was sure that if I endure the 2 hr journey (in a a normal day- God knows how long in a strike day)to work I would probably get there by the time I was supposed to leave....so today I am working from home!
just to prove my point that things always happen to me hear this one...
approximately 1 month ago i left home as I always do exactly 45 minutes before 9 I took the train as I always do...2 stations into the trip I heard the unpleasant announcement " ladies and gentleman, there is a signal failure we are experiencing severe delays, costumers are advised to take another line..." Fine I thought, I was just in a interchange so I said I change to this one...not great but good enough...and what happens?? surprise surprise...1 station into the trip we stopped in between stations, so in the dark part of the tunnel, and we listen the unwanted announcement " ladies and gentleman there was a passenger alarm in the train in front of us we will be on the move asap" well asap in London apparently is 45 min...after that we listen " ladies and gentleman, please hold tight we will be doing an emergency manouver" 1 min later half of the costumers in the train almost fall and we are being evacuated by walking 2 trains from the inside of the train up until the platform....what happened to the person that pull the passenger alarm I have no idea I hope nothing to serious, what happened to me? well i reached work at about 10.30 am completely sweaty and so annoyed that i can't even describe it with words...
so u see, this is just one of the unbelivable situations that I get myself in to...today i stayed home...i am sure If I went to work by bus I would most likely end up walking the 12 miles to work! lolololol
So I will try to go back to it...I wil try to be more cheerful and happy...as I promised someone very dear to me I will enjoy life more! (or at least try)
the only problem of this amazing plan is that I am a pessimist by nature, I truly believe that if something bad may happen it definetely happens to me...and this my friends, this is a huge block on the way to happiness...
today i decided to play along with this and against all odds I didn't go to work, and why? Because there is a 24h strike in the London underground and I was sure that if I endure the 2 hr journey (in a a normal day- God knows how long in a strike day)to work I would probably get there by the time I was supposed to leave....so today I am working from home!

Issues of London
I was going to write about something really serious and important but I decided that the sadness that we are feeling is already enough so maybe writing about little things is probably better and best!
My life in London has not been a bed of roses...ohhh no siriiiii! this has been a hard journey that I had to endure alone, and no matter what people say, I think living in London is horrible! no matter how many things you can do, how many musicals, how many shops, how many parks...London is most certainly not a place for me...It's one of those places where despite being surrounded by millions (and literally I mean millions) you can feel the self...the loneliness...people in London are cold...
there are about 4 types of ppl living here:
1) the hippster " uhhh living in London is so cool..."
2) the "i don't care what anybody thinks"
3) the families
4) me the " I can't wait to get out of here"...
in London you miss everything, but most important you miss the smile of the nobody in the streets, you miss other ppl...I miss not feeling lonely...
London can sometimes be magic but it can also be so creepy and scary...
I will leave on day, and maybe that day is closer than I thought!
