This is a link to an article about my favorite client and one of my favorite companies, Patagonia and the work they do to save our environment. I've seen first hand, from working wtih them, all the good work they do. They are dedicated to changing the way we make clothes, the materials we use, and even the number of clothes we produce and sell...

Ever heard of continuous partial attention? I recently heard someone giving a speech about it when I was at the event in Santa Monica. It fascinated me since I'm usually doing my work, I'm also online, have my cell phone nearby (that people use to text and BlackBerry message me) and i often have music going. Here's some interesting information - The human brain, with...

I do not fully understand your journal today because I have a poor English and often miss the meaning of some words. But I think I understand the basics. Actually I'm saying about not just today, but everyday and everyone posts.
Do you know there is a big difference between woman's and men's brain, you know?
Woman can pay attention in a lot of things in the same time. And mens usually concentrate theirselfs in just one topic. Like when they are watching soccer in television and don't here what we are saying. ...

I think that's interesting, but I know that if i'm trying to write an article even if there's just music in the background I can get distracted and I start writing bits of the lyrics or whatever so I have to be careful. Apart from that I can do a hundred things at once, literally!! 
Wow, all these days and nothing really to say. Not much has happened, mostly work and not enough playing. But I do get to go back to California in just two weeks. I'll get to do a little surfing and get some of my work done. I can't wait to get back to the beach.

I never saw snow in my whole life.
But I'm not sure I'll gonna like it, when it is cold I feel so lazy............ wishing to stay at bed with some lover... eating chocolate for the breakfast.....
I'm so tired too. It is all about working, studding, working... I have no fun!
And in the end of the month I feel poor of money and poor of fun.

This is a reply prompted by Kyra. Maybe I should have used the term "natural" rather than "real". Everyone does have their own idea of what is the perfect body type and that what makes so many people interesting. I too have a certain body type I'm attracted to. While in graduate school I did several research studies on physical attractiveness and people as young as elementary school will consistently select the same people as attractive. There are variations by nationality, race, age, etc but if everyone is asked to select from the same group, the same people will consistently be selected. With that said, luckily everyone has different personal attractions even if they can pick out what everyone would label as attractive. Not everybody is attracted to the people the media portrays as beautiful. And the media does have a significant impact on our perceptions of attractiveness. When I was saying "real" I was referring to the fact there are lots of women on this site who don't fit the media stereotype of the way women should look. Again, maybe I should have used the word "natural" rather than real. There are girls of all shapes, sizes, colors, tons of tattoos, just a few tattoos, lots of piercings and just a few, thin, heavier and everything in between and there are lots of males and females who find each and every one of them attractive. That's what I was referring to. What I meant was that all those variations I mentioned above are natural beauties, thin included.
I just had a friend ask me to go on a climbing trip to Virgin Gorda, BVI next month to go climbing. They are shooting a climbing movie. Oh I want to go so badly. I wish I didn't have to work and I could just drop everything and go. I'd be in paradise.

This is a pretty parody from Mad TV on the Iraq war and Apple Computers. Very funny but if you are a die hard supporter of the war don't watch it.

Just random thoughts for the day.
Isn't amazing how good a dog can make you feel at any time? (I haven't had cats so I don't know if its the same)
And I apologize ahead of time for the rather heavy thoughts below -
Did you hear about the latest bombing in Baghdad? There's a report (it was in the NY Times today) that some...

I hate people who are mean to animals, children and elderly people. I'm not crazy about babies, but I could never hurt one...
About dogs and cats... I have a dog. My boyfriend has 3 dogs, 4 cats, 3 turtles and some other animals. After I met him I know that I'd rather have a cat, but they can't make you happy any time. And mostly they are sweet just with their owner
Well, I can post some pictures - I intend to - but I have to get back to Brazil and use a decent pc. Mine is a laptop from 2000 that I bought for 50 dollars plus shipping last month. It's cute but it doesn't run even windows 98 and doesn't have enough memory. But I can access Internet

Zara is great, and the best thing is that they have my size.
I like H&M, but once I spent more than 1 hour, trying on 15 pants and none of them fit me.
In fact I'm planning to go to H&M Thursday because 'M By Madonna' collection will be available

Looks like a good time, it is warming up here but not nearly as nice as there.
You get to be jealous of me next week, going to Florida.
Sometimes it is just nice to be away from the computer ~ plus I lose my cell phone too much to have all kinds of important info on it. The Internet is a strange place now though ~ don't blame the politicians for using it.

I've got to say it feels good to be in the west missing all the bad weather in NY (sorry for those of you stuck there). I'm having near perfect temperatures and its sunny. It's almost too hot for climbing and by the time I left the mountain today it was too hot for climbing.

So I couldn't take the crappy NY weather and jumped on a plane and went west again. I'm going cimbing this weekend. I arrived just in time to see a great sunset and tomorrow I'll be getting up early to do some bouldering. It is so nice and warm here, I'm in a T-shirt and jeans. Tomorrow will hopefully be pants and no shirt. We'll...

Well it had to come to an end eventually. I've left CA and am headed home. But I can't complain because I had a great trip. I had near perfect weather. Got to see sunsets over the gorgeous Pacific Ocean and sunrises over the hills while sitting in the water surrounded by dolphins. I surfed at Oceanside, Salt Creek (Orange County), Santa Monica and Ventura....

aww.....sleeping in our own bed must be the best feeling in the world, welcome home (to the snow and ice )
I am going to probably put up the project next week. It is a photo-essay/self-portrait but when I present it I need all kinds of meanings for it, I will l put that up with the pics.
Have a good weekend!

I feel like I've been so out of touch. I've been so busy between meetings that I haven't had much time to get on SG. I feel like I must've missed a ton. I've had great meetings that will hopefully result in me spending much more time in southern CA this summer. I could end up working with some very fun companies (all in the...

Speaking about Patagonia - geographically - this is one of the places I wanna go before I die, or before global warming melts the ice.
