How happy I am to be here with you once again.

Another year, a new semester, new dreams, hopes and expectations.
My vacation period was awesome! I went to a beach somewhere between Recife and Maceió, in Maragogi. I stayed in a place called pousada "Barra Velha". When God thought of giving us humans a feeling of heaven, he thought of creating Barra Velha. I hope to return there next year.
Anyway, now let´s concentrate on the hard work........

More about me!!!!!

2009-07-07T14:15:00.000-07:00

I am carioca, Fluminense and Salgueirense!!!! I lived when very young in the US and there, I learnt to read and write. When I returned to Rio, I had to learn Portuguese and I confess I had serious trouble at school. When I was about to turn 13, I went to England to live in a city callled Southhampton. It was a very hard time for me beacuse I was a teenager, living in a foreign country, and having to get adaptated to new customs, and of course, the gray British weather!!!!
When I returned to Brasil, I only lived a few months in Rio before coming to Brasilia, where I have lived since then. Now I can also say that I am ""candanga"".
