Hello... I don’t know what to say, but I will try and write what is on my mind now. I’m a journalist and Law student. I’ve always dreamed of writing a book. I didn’t do it until now. Maybe I will never will, but I still want to think I will one day. While it doesn’t happen – or if it never happens – I write about books of other writers (www.entrelinhas.info). Reading is one of my passions, as the same way of learning other languagues. I wish I could learn Italian, Chinese, Latin, Japonese one day... Other things I like a lot are skirts (always very colourful), cats, History, Politics... Some people think and say I am a revolutionary. I don’t think so... or I don’t want to be anymore. Revolutionaries are romantic people and these people are the ones who have more pain in this life! Oh... how it is true! Maybe I was revolutionary one day and wanted to change the world – and I guess that old revolutionary will never come back because first I will have to learn how to change some things in my own life – however I like to talk and try to say what can be changed, what can be done to have a better world. I try and use the words to make people see the things, maybe I don’t do a lot, but if words have power, I hope I am helping the world. Sometimes I wish I could have a clone to do some things for me, not because I think things I do are boring, but because I’ve been feeling soooooooo tired. In fact, I think nothing that I do in my life is boring, it can be tiring, however I love these things I do. One thing I am loving to do is teaching, that makes me feeling useful in this life. I love my friends and family and I thank God for having them. Actually, they’re my reason of living and they are the things that make me going on in this life. I try and make the best I can to make them proud and to make them enjoying the time they are with me, even if I feel I am boring... But when I see their smiles... it is like something inside me says I am alive. Sometimes (well... in fact, since the beginning of this year frequentely) I close myself in the bedroom to cry and cry... alone... because I don’t want people to see me like that. I know... it sounds melancholic (nothing that years of therapy won’t help...), but just to not finish this profile like that... I will tell other things I like to do: travelling (I wish one day I could know all Latin America, Asia and Africa, I wish I could visit Canada, Sweden, Norway and Denmark too... I also wish I could spend some time in Portugal, Germany, Belgium... the places where my ancestors came from), talking (the good conversations with my friends are being my biggest pleasure nowadays), watching movies and series, music and knowing different people and cultures. I love culture... especially mine (hehehehe...) that is full of amazing things. I don’t know what will happen in the future, however I am trying and not think about that. I am learning to not thing about that and to try and live only the present. If I will really learn it, I don’t know yet... but like some things I’ve written about in this text, I am trying... I just want to have my revolutionary, young spirit back (ok... that is a contradiction... but what is life if it isn’t a biggest one?). Maybe nobody will finish of reading it (it became so big!), but... this is a little about who I am.More information: http://www.entraporosmose.com
