On valentines day my GF gave to me......

Last Sunday on Valentines day(for us in Brazil is a different date), i took my girlfriend to watch Pirates of the Caribbean 4, which by the way i thought it was pretty good, and thought that Johnny depp oughta be one of the best actors there is, he's is definitely one of my favorites.

The guy simply created one of the most memorable characters of all times, Capt. Jack Sparrow is full of personality, unique, and  even though he was not the one that wrote the character, he was the one that gave him life in his own way. I'll be drawing a piece on Jack Sparrow soon.

Another good thing that happen to me on Valentines day was my gift, or rather the gift i was given by my girlfriend Tatiana Yu, check it out it another of those favorite characters of movies!


Predator rulez big time, my favorite alien character for sure, the pic was done by me, using a plants vase on my "front yard" !

Cheers to all!

Time goes by and life goes on!

Happy birthday to me hehe!

    Not much is going on in my life at the moment, apart from a beautiful girl i'm going out with, i still don't have a job, i have a cold since last week, but as i said before life is a collection of good and bad moments and i believe that if i'm going through a rough patch now, things will get better soon!


By the way the one on the pic is me, unfortunately the Vader's armor is not mine was just borrowed for the pic itself, The lightsaber was done on Photoshop!



Cheers!

Happy geek pride day!

Well i was just informed by a friend this morning( 25/05 ) that today was Geek pride day, i was unaware that we had a pride day, hehe, i mean it does make sense as being a geek nowadays is sort of in "fashion" right?!

I am and have always been a geek, and very proud of being one, grew up watching cartoons, anime, reading manga and comic books, I still read them, instead of playing with toys i collect them now, mostly action figures that are statue like, but mainly i have always stood by the stuff i liked because i never felt like denying who i was, and today i can celebrate it as another geek around the world hehe!

Cheers folks!

Live up your goals!!!

Kia ora folks,

    I know i know it has been a very long time and no post, there are times that we feel like nothing interesting is happening in our life and therefore, we don't feel like writing or doing much, it's a bit of a vicious cycle...
 ...that is not the case here. As a matter of fact i had a lot going on. My last few months in New Zealand and the start of my new life back in Brazil.


    Travelling is my life, it defines who i am and so far it has been 35 countries, 3 continents, thousands of liters of beer, wine, kilos (or Pounds) of various food, several kilometers (or miles) driven, flown, sailed, on tracks, pedaled, walked, ran, hiked, climbed, handstands in famous places, people met, fancy cars, jet skies in beautiful paradisiac beaches, expensive night clubs, extreme sports, concerts. Played with all seasons within their proper weather, snowboarding in Colorado during winter, biking on the reddish Central Park during autumn, snorkeling on crystal blue Caribbean waters on a hot summer day, going for a run up the mountains breathing clear springtime air in Akaroa NZ, natural disasters such as earthquakes, tropical storms at sea, hurricane storms, hail, snow storms, cyclones, bad rain and lightening, bruises, smiles, pain, relief, happiness, memories, moments good or bad, the list is almost endless.
 
   Trying to write all of it down, makes me think how wonderful and much like a Hollywood movie my life as been, i'm not rich financially and yet i was able to do sooooo much that made me rich on the inside, i have achieved most of my goals, a total of 20 % of the world, and from here on i'll be working on settling my life on my biggest dream;  ARTS, by getting involved in courses, and getting to know people with the same interest.


    I still intend to do some travelling, my new goal towards travels is to be in all of the five continents (not counting Antarctica) before i reach my 35th year, i'm 16 days away from my 27th birthday which gives me about 8 years to visit Africa and Asia, ahhh and also to learn Italian and French hehe.

Folks now i'm back to my online "duties", i'll be posting new journals here and drawings on DA, so tag along if you like and share my perspective of life, leave a comment if possible!

C ya!!!

When life gives you lemons, you make Lemonade!

 After being here in Akaroa for such a long time i really started to appreciate the country life, the beauty and silence surrounding me me as of lately has become part of who i am, yet still i'm not ready to only have this, i need the commodities of a big city to balance the stillness of the valley, and one of the things i miss the most by being here is not having a gym to work out, i've been eating so much bread and carbohydrates, which would be fine if i was working out on regular bases, but since i wasn't doing much i've just packed up on a few kgs.

The other day after dinner i was playing with Alice, Celia's (my boss) daughter, when she propose for us to move the fun to the kids playground in her school, and so we went , it took me about five minutes after playing with her to realize that i could use the same place for a few work outs.. and vous a la , this is my new Gym!


Between going for a run, riding my bike and figuring new work outs every day, i'm exercising again, feeling the joy of endorphin and adrenaline rushing through my veins, without the use of chemical stuff hehe!!!


Kia kaha

PS: kia kaha means stay strong in Maori language!
