It was an intense week, which began with the now traditional annual gathering of former students of cinema from my film school college. I call it Traditional because we created this event three years ago as an excuse to gather those ex-classmates that due to work commitments, etc., we not see so easily.

The first event was at a bar near my home, and managed to gather only a few former classmates. The second one was largest than the first and took place already at the house of a friend of mine even here in Rio. For this year, we got the beach house of another former colleague, and we could spend a whole weekend together, drinking some beers, eating a barbecue (sorry my vegan friends) and playing soccer. And best of all, two days together with very important people in our lives.

Monday I started my training process for a new job. Nothing too exciting, a telephone operator service customer service. The salary, not fabulous, but the fact that it was only 6 hours a day and it gives me some money to buy books and still have time to read and work on my screenplays and other texts make me accept to do the job.

At last, on thursday night I went to another friend apt. to drink some beers and listen some rock'n roll. On the next day, all of us went to a restaurant here and my the price of my dish was a big surprise.

I believe that I will return to write a new blog journal before the new year's eve.

thank you man.

I'm a bit jealous,
not only of the weather there,
but the camaraderie you have with your classmates.
Looks like a nice reunion.

That looks like so much fun!smile

Feliz Natal, baiano! I hope you had a great holiday.

I am wishing/dreaming/trying to work out my finances so I can come back for a few months in fall 2012. I need to learn to speak and write in Portuguese, properly. Your vast knowledge of Brazilian music and history just reminds me that I have so much to learn!

That looks like a lovely set of events! Even with your demonic meal - hahahaha.

Sometimes taking a job that allows you to simply live your life is the best plan. I hope you get lots of wonderful creative time!

hello!!!! smile ah yes, i do love her. i hope i can meet her again some day! brahma? is this a local beer of some sort??? barbecue looks delish!! hope life is awesome!! the new job sounds perfect. i am a firm believer in working less than the typical eight hour work day. working just little enough to get buy and have all the books we desire and freedom to do what we really want (if we have not yet achieved doing this as our everyday work) is the way to live.

That's the one! The Ethical Slut was life-changing for me, so I thought I'd give this book a shot and I'm glad I did.
