i can finally move in

recognize this house?

‘Ferris Bueller’ House on the Market

i'm a modern mermaid

so, this is an excerpt from my favorite book as a child called “If I Were in Charge of the World: and Other Worries” and it’s a collection of short stories and poems written in the perspective of children. my favorite chapter is called fairy tales and provides alternate endings to some of my favorite fairy tales such as this one [my fav, and possibly the reason for my realist romanticism]:

…AND ALTHOUGH THE LITTLE MERMAID SACRIFICED EVERYTHING TO WIN THE LOVE OF THE PRINCE, THE PRINCE (ALAS) DECIDED TO WEAR ANOTHER

i left the castle of my mer-king father,

where seaweed gardens sway in pearly sand.

i left behind sweet sisters and kind waters

to seek a prince’s love upon the land.

my tongue was payment for the witch’s potion

(and never would I sing sea songs again).

my tail became two human legs to dance on,

but i would always dance with blood and pain

i risked more than my life to make him love me.

the prince preferred another for his bride.

i always hate the ending to this story:

they lived together happily; i died

but i have some advice for modern mermaids

wh wish to save great sorrow and travail:

don’t give up who you are for love of princes.

he might have liked me better with my tail.

dear doritos: please, stop

had a pretty long discussion about this on saturday and i just saw the commercial and it reminded me: do i really want my chips to taste like my drunken late night craving that i totally regret in the morning? no, i do not. these chip companies are gettign way too creative with their chip flavors. what’s next? let’s just skip all the bull shit and go straight to hangover flavor lol

adventure with nika #2

so nika and I went to the sony ericsson open today to watch the men's single semi-finals and despite the blistering heat it was quite fun. high light of the adventure: watching federer lose his temper and slam his racket [above], causing everyone to burst into cheer haha

more pics and videos later

speaking of technology

that's a laser disc
google it

new technology is so much fun

so i haven't seen a movie in imax since they first opened the theater here and they didn't even play real feature films then just documentaries on sharks or something like that but i went to go see monsters vs. aliens with my family the other day in imax and it was so much fun! btdub: monsters vs. aliens, pretty funny!

i laughed a lot today

so today i accompanied my parents to the high school i went to for 9th grade for their annual brazilian carnival. it was so crazy seeing my old school especially because it changed sooooooooooooooo much since i went there. kinda reminds me of what a BAMF [i thought] i was lol also, i got to be one of the judges for the miss carnaval contest which was pretty cool. it made me miss high school and it also made me proud to be brazilian woo hoo!

i was me before you

"You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-you-are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a "wild thing," and you're terrified somebody's gonna stick you in a cage. Well baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somali-land. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself. "
