ACDC

O Grande Show:
Minha fase de ir em shows de rock ja esta um tanto quanto ultrapassada, porem, se tem 2 bandas que eu me sinto honrada e obrigada a ir nos shows sao Red Hot Chili Peppers e ACDC.
Red hot ja esteve aqui antes mas quando vieram eu nao era tao fan. ACDC vira em novembro, e depois irao se aposentar, realmente eu me sinto obrigada a ir nesse show. Entao, acho que ja sei o que quero de natal (ou aniversario) XD

Gelatina!

Namaste!
Hoje nao tive aula :/ Acordei, fiz uma otima sessao de yoga, arrumei tudo por aqui.. fui ao mercado novamente, recarreguei meu estoque de trakinas, chocolate e congelados, hehehe e outras coisinhas mais. Passei numa lojinha e comprei 3 pacotinhos de incenso.. ah eu nao resisto. huhu, 1 real cada pacotinho ainda por cima...
Pra quem ainda nao viu, tenho o porta incenso mais bonito do mundo:

Para o almoco, pasmem, fiz um arrozinho bonito com pedacos de polenguinho e temperei e fritei 2 bifes. ihul! Hoje nao teve nada em especial, somente eu comigo mesma. Agora vou assistir um filme que baixei (Clube da Luta) - eh, nao assisti ainda. E depois dormir.
Ah ja ia me esquecendo, comprei um suco que entregaram aqui em casa, nao sei se peguei da prateleira assim (ate parece) ou se na hora de entregar ficou assim:

E ai? Sera que esse suco esta estragado e eu perdi suco e dinheiro? Affe.. porquera, pindaiba...
Gelatina?!

Sim pirilim. Hoje fiz gelatina de tangerina. Ah nao sei se esta boa, pois ainda nao endureceu, esta agua ainda na geladeira, espero que fique boa huahuahu. Coloquei um saquinho de gelatina, ach
ei que iria ficar meio aguado, entao despejei 2 pacotinhos, acho que sabo
r nao vai faltar heheh.
Na proxima sexta-feira de manha, darei uma aula demonstrativa de yoga para alguns colegas da faculdade, acho que vai ser bacana mostrar pra eles um pouquinho do magico estilo de vida yogi, creio que ficarao felizes. Por mim, faria no fds, mas todos voltam pras suas respectivas cidades no fds, entao sexta de manha acho que esta valido.

Essa foto sou eu no Extravaganza - India. Sim, sou chique. hihi!
Boa noite!

Veterinarios, parabens pelo seu dia!

Namaste!
09/09/09 > Parabens a todos os medicos veterinarios!
Essa eh a semana da veterinaria, por isso estamos tendo palestras gratuitas sobre oftalmologia, dermatologia e neurologia de animais de companhia.

Gostei muito da palestra sobre oftalmologia que foi ontem, a de hoje nao achei muito proveitosa, ja que falaram mais sobre remedios e usaram muitos termos tecnicos, coisa nao muito boa para estudantes do 1 periodo..
Fiz almoco, queimei um pouco da omelete :/
Mas deu pra comer ate. haha
Obi Wan esta bem por aqui, parece que agora ele me reconhece, toda vez que chego da faculdade ele fica nadando de um lado pro outro feito doido.. ( ou entao eh pq ele sabe que vem comida hehehehe )
Mas ainda acredito que ele ja me reconheca... (:
O dia em que (quase) choveu canivetes: Hoje choveu o dia INTEIRO. Impressionante. Agora de noite que esta escassa, so uma garoa.
Tudo nublado, clima propicio para ficar embaixo das cobertas assistindo filme. Nao pensei 2x. Depois da palestra, passei na locadora, aluguei: Recem-chegada, Ligados pelo crime e 12h para viver. Assisti Recem-chegada, muito engracado, gostei!
Os outros , pelo trailer, parecem ser bons tb, mas nao sao comedia. (esqueci a classificacao).
Baixei um filme o qual muitas pessoas ja me diziam que eh muito bom, se chama Clube da Luta, com o Brad Pitt ( gatissimo ;)
Gostei tb, bem valido assistir huahua
Agora estou com os olhos meio embacados de tanto ficar na frente da tv e pc.
Boa noite :*

Positividade

Namaste!
Ahh! Estou na reta final do trabalho de citologia! Ufa! Nao foi dificil mas foi complicado.
Hoje feriadao, nao aconteceu nada muito interessante, a nao ser um desfile do 7 de setembro que teve na avenida principal aqui que deve ter aparecido na tv. (Estou sem tv, mas vi as cameras la filmando e o reporter etc)
Hoje sai de manha, finalmente consegui o apanhador de sonhos, dancei uma musiquinha no pump e ja voltei pra casa pra fazer meu trabalho de cito.
Aqui vai uma foto do filtro dos sonhos (Nao reparem a bagunca, sabe como eh, casa de estudante nao tem mtas regras, hehehe) Obs.: O filtro de sonhos eh esse negocio verde pendurado no lustre e nao o galao de agua ali do lado esquerdo.

Os vendedores do apanhador de sonhos
Fui buscar meu filtro dos sonhos que tanto sonhava (hehehe); pra variar, nao estava pronto. Estava, em partes, eu tinha que escolher que penas eu queria, bambu etc. Enquanto a vendedora terminava, ela e o marido dela conversavam comigo sobre a cidade. Pelo meu sotaque foi facil descobrirem que sou paulista, e entao ficaram me perguntando se eu estava gostando etc. Ate que chegamos num assunto que o vendedor disse - ah tem que tomar cuidado com as amizades que faz, aqui tem mta gente boa mas tb tem pessoas que nao sao boa companhia, e ai vem aquele velho ditado - antes so que mal acompanhado. Eh verdade, conclui.
Conversa vai, conversa vem, chegamos em outra parte que contei que estava estudando veterinaria, e a vendedora me disse - ah voce tem cara que gosta de animais silvestres. (Uau, eu nao tinha falado isso pra ela e ela adivinhou na mosca). Concordei, e ela continuou - Quem sabe um dia vc vai pra Africa ou India, nossa ja pensou, cuidar daqueles bichoes
HAHAHAHA.
Incrivel... Contei pra ela partes de minhas aventuras na India, ai que a conversa rendeu mais.
O marido dela, vendedor, comentava - ah da pra ver que voce eh de bem e curte sua vida com positividade e aproveite de todas essas suas experiencias que vc ja teve na vida, nada foi em vao, etc etc.
Sai de la inspirada.
Acho interessante como pessoas boas se identificam umas com as outras. Acho bem valido aquele outro ditado - Voce atrai o que voce transmite.
Acredito que quando uma pessoa esta carregando energias positivas, sua aura fica brilhante, viva, e isso pode ser transmitido ao mundo ao redor.
Pessoas positivas atraem positividade em todos os aspectos.
E a ultima coisa que o vendedor me disse antes de eu ir embora foi - Venca sempre, procure ser a melhor em tudo, o mundo pertence aos vencedores, nao 'as pessoas mais ou menos..
(Algo assim ele disse...)
Aqueles vendedores renderam meu dia.

Obi Wan, o meu peixe!

Namaste!
Hoje acordei e fui buscar meu apanhador de sonhos. Nao esta pronto ainda --'
Amanha pela ultima vez irei buscar na feirinha, caso nao esteja pronto, irei na loja anterior mesmo. E ai perdeu playboy, ou melhor, perdeu feirante..
Assisti um filme chamado Encurralados. Quem gostade filmes espertos, essa eh uma boa opcao.
Agora tem um outro que vou assistir amanha, chama-se Busca Implacavel.
Amanha conto o que achei do filme.
Agora tenho 2 trabalhos pra fazer, um de citologia - transporte celular grande e pequeno porte - e outro de bioquimica - falar sobre alguma doenca metabolica em animais. - Eh, se vc for um vet, seria agradavel se me informasse algumas doencas, pois acabei de entrar na faculdade e a profa ja pede um trabalho desse grau. Ajudaria se ela explicasse alguma coisinha minima ou pelo menos me falasse uma doenca pra pesquisar.. Mas acho que de agora em diante sera assim, devo tatuar o Google e seguir em frente.
Obi Wan, o meu peixe:
Enquanto eu esperava pelo meu apanhador de sonhos ficar pronto, fui passear pelo centro e encontrei uma pet shop. Pra ser bem simples e direta, comprei um peixe beta.
Eu queria um peixe japones que vi que eh todo molenga e tem uma cauda bonita ou entao uns peixes dourados, mas pra quem nao sabe, eu tenho medo de peixes :S
Nao eh um meeeedo, eh uma aflicao. Assim, eu nao gosto do fato de eu relar num peixe e comer mto menos entende?! Entao o vendedor ficou confuso pq eu queria um peixe sendo que eu nao curto, dai eu disse que to estudando veterinaria e preciso perder essa frescura e entao ele disse que talvez seria melhor se eu comecasse com o beta, um peixe calminho e sozinho e aquario pequeno. Custou-me 20 reais e foi um custo pra colocar ele no aquario ( aff e se ele pulasse em mim?! ) mas deu tudo certo, agora ja alimentei-o e ja coloquei espelho na frente dele pra ver ele armado. Pensei em nomea-lo de bola wilson ou apenas wilson, talvez pelo fato dele me fazer companhia em casa, mas entao eu decidi nomea-lo Obi Wan pois ele eh meio ruivo igual o Obi do filme.
Apresento-lhes Obi Wan, o meu peixe!

Sabado.

Yakult, gatorade, frutas, chocolate, tudo que ha de bom e um pouco de elemento X; estes sao os ingredientes que criaram aaaaa:
Bruna, a menina super poderosa!

Mentira, essa era minha lista de coisas pra comprar no mercado hoje. So nao citei ali em cima o papel higienico e veja multi uso pq sei la ne... E o elemento X eh invencao.
Hoje acordei as 7h naturalmente como de costume. E voltei a dormir, pois eh sabado.
10h eu levantei, hihu, tomei um cafe da manha supimpa misturando todos sucrilhos que tenho aqui, limpei a casa inteirinha (como se fosse grande, mas deu pra suar litros..) e ai como toda pessoa moderna (nao eh preguica) fui almocar no giraffas.
Passeando um pouco mais avistei o piu (pump it up = maquina de danca) eeee nao resisti. so 3 dancinhas... e ja passei de level, agora estou no hard! (mas depois posto sobre isso)
Entao fui ao mercado e depois aluguei mais 2 filmes. E dessa vez nao vou fazer pipoca :(
O filtro dos sonhos ( ou, o apanhador de sonhos ):
Ontem passeei pelo centro e vi uma lojinha de coisas misticas para casa.
Gostei de um filtro dos sonhos, custava 35 reais. Nao achei valido esse preco, nao combina muito comigo sabe.. Entao eu vi um de 18 reais, esse estava bem valido! Resolvi nao comprar ainda, nao sei pq, mas nao comprei.
Hoje decidi ir busca-lo. Cheguei na loja e ja tinham vendido e nao tinha mais :(
Entao encomendei um. por 18 reais eh claro.
Depois disso vi uma feirinha a qual decidi pinicar por la. Ora ora, tinha uma barraquinha de filtros dos sonhos! Mas era 20 reais..
Gostei de um verde e bege de algodao, mas nao comprei de novo... a vendedora disse que faria um novinho pra mim, sem compromisso, e por 18 reais, hehe, amanha irei la e vou conferir, montarei +- do jeito que quero. E amanha conto se consegui o tal filtro dos sonhos ou se vao me passar a perna de novo.aff. huahuah..

Vida nova!

Namaste senhoras e senhores.

De volta ao Brasil sil sil [...]!
Sabia que a mamata acabaria um dia.
Eis que estou aqui, cursando o que finalmente desejei em toda minha vida: a Medicina Veterinaria!
Agora estou reativando esse blog pra contar mais sobre minha rotina para quem quiser ler, principalmente meus pais.
Contarei aqui as minhas novas experiencias , aqui tb chorarei as pitangas e transbordarei de felicidade.
Voce entao podera compartilhar comigo!
Como eu estava dizendo, comecei a faculdade mes passado. Estou gostando muito das pessoas, das materias, de tudo. Mas, nao acredite em mim agora, quando eu passar pela primeira prova entao eu direi se tudo continua lindo e maravilhoso. hehehe
Eh a primeira vez que estou literalmente tomando conta do meu nariz, ate que estou me saindo bem eu acho. Ah nao ser ontem que estraguei a janta ...
A janta foi pro brejo:
Era uma sexta a noite e eu tinha locado um filme. Tive a ideia que todos tem: estourar pipocas.
Como toda pessoa moderna, abri o microondas e coloquei o saquinho pra estourar. No saquinho estava escrito: deixar estourar entre 2-5min. Coloquei 4min. OmG como eu ia saber que meu microondas tem uma potencia tao boa?! As pipocas sairam totalmente torradas, pretas e aquele fedor de queimado. ;O
Joguei tudo fora e decidi fazer macarrao.
Como toda pessoa moderna, abri o pacote de macarrao pronto e coloquei na panela pra cozinhar.
Ate que eu poderia ter usado a leiteira pra me ajudar a medir a agua mas essas coisas a gnt pensa so depois que faz a besteira ne?! Coloquei muita agua e quase transbordou tudo. Ahh sem crise, retirei o excesso de agua e voltei a cozinhar o macarrao pronto. Depois de alguns minutos, fui pra frente da tv, apertei o play e experimentei o macarrao. Era ruim, nao gostei. Era um sabor estranho, e nao foi eu que errei na mao nao pois eu so cozinhei, o tempero ja estava la no pacote, pronto.
Comi metade do macarrao, abri um pacote de trakinas e assisti o filme.

Fala Português?!

Estavamos eu e mãe na fila do Mantralaia (uma espécie de prefeitura aqui em Mumbai - India) pra pegar um documento do meu cachorro que é viajado. Falavamos, em português, mal de uma garota que, na fila anterior à que estavamos, não tinha modos. Ela estava atrás de nós mas ficava roçando a bolsa nas costas da mãe. Não só a bolsa mas quando mexia no cabelo, a pata da elefanta sempre batia "sem querer" no cabelo ou no cotovelo da mãe. Pois bem, confabulavamos como falaríamos pra guria se tocar que estava sendo incoveniente. Mãe disse: - Eu queria dizer a ela "keep distance" Eu disse: - Se tivesse me falado antes, eu falava com a garota Mãe disse: - Você seria grossa com ela. Retruquei: - Até que não, eu falaria com delicadeza, bem assim " com licença por favor, você está incomodando minha mãe, portanto mova-se um pouco para o lad..." Quando um moço se aproxima (indiano) e nos pergunta: - Olá, vocês vieram pegar qual documento?  
... ele disse em português ...
Ok , mãe e eu ficamos de beiço no chão, afinal, o moço entendeu toda nossa conversa porcaria... Mas o moço queria treinar o português, descobrimos que o moço é casado com uma brasileira. Com a gente, aprendeu a palavra "cachorro" que ele não sabia!  
Pra quem não sabe ficar de bico fechado, há sempre modos de contornar uma situação mesmo falando nada com nada. Pelo menos às vezes... 
Logo mais, ele nos disse - Tchau.

Certificate

Hi!
3 days remaining for my birthday.

Today my very good friend came back to Brazil.
She was living here in India too.
I feel a little alone now.
Its hard to explain, i know i have more friends but, brazilian friendship is different , i am already used to it, we used to go to many places together and acting same way. Boh, nevermind, you wont understand me unless u have friends from other countries too. Luck of me that my family is with me.
It is a blessing having the opportunity to travel and know different parts of he world, to communicate and live with different people. But at same time its difficult, you feel like not wanting to let go of some things/people.
People who travel a lot is obliged to practice detachment, everyday, everytime.
I can handle it.

I am happy!
Yesterday i got my yoga certificate. Now i am a oficial Yoga Teacher!
The certificate says that i ve done the comprehensive yoga teachers training course. Now i wanna put a glass on it and put on the wall. lol.
After 1 year of course, getting stressed ( haha believe it, i used to get stressed during the course, because we had to do some jobs together, so some friends didnt use to cooperate well. hehehe), doing many volunteers camps, talks etc... finally i got it!
Now i am planning to do another volunteer job in an orphange. Also i want to go to peoples house and teach them. Then create my own Yoga Studio! I already have a name for it, but its a secret for now. =P
This is my pic at the yoga intitute, holding my certificate:
Hahahaha, this is the best bday gift i ve given to myself!!
I was suppose to do my yoga exams on november 08, but as i said, i am always traveling, so in november again was not possible, neither december. so i did in the beginning of this month, jan 09 and passed and all. Yeah!
Now if u need a yoga instructor, just let me a message. hehehehe
Ahh, i m thinking to make a workshop of yoga, an introduction of yoga. It sounds nice isnt it so?
But i m afraid here in India they dont get much excited, as u find yoga teachers on each road. hehehe.
I ll try anyway.. lol

2009 started very well for me, besides getting my certificate, i started a photography course.
I m learning about professional cameras, how to take pics and composition etc.
I am enjoying so much the course, almost everyday my group goes to some place here in the city to photograph, our teacher is always there with us, telling how to do each shot.
I like very much to take pictures of flowers and dogs. People are also fun to photograph, but then i need to ask permission for each shot..
Also i am learning modeling, hehehehe. No , i m not doing any course of modeling. Its just because at this photo course, we also learn studio lights, so a model is recquired just to be there so that students can make their practices by clicking. I m always the model,. hahaha, its fun.
But not everytime, as i need to click too.
Anyways, im having fun.
Now i wait excited for my visa to Australia.
I wanna go, i need to change, i need to come back to my studies.
Yo. and thats the way i take life. Always changing, always doing something.

I wish to...

Hello everyone! (:

Merry Christmas and happy New Year to you all!

I am here to tell you that finally i got over my yoga teachers trainning course! Yaaaa, just waiting my certificate to be ready now.
Anyway, i m gonna share what did i do today.
I woke up and watched Animal Planet. heheh
It has been sometime i didnt watch, i was missing it. uheuhe
Two photographers went to Quenia - Africa to photograph wild life. I found this tv show really nice, cause they didnt have to touch or cause any stress to the animals. They were there, in the middle of the jungle and savanas and were not touching anything, just photographing. Cool!
Then i went shopping with mom and brother. I was looking for jeans and shoes but i bought a bag. hehehe
I was suppose to go to a demo class of kickboxing, but we got late from the mall, so i m going to this demo class on saturday.
I came back home and watched Supernatural. I am addicted to it, hahaha
I like to watch Dean :~ lol
Reflecting on today and what i ve been thinking this week, i would like to share some of my wishes to next years, not necessary 2009, but things i wish to do during my life.
1) Safari Africa - To do like those photographers;
I love animals, i love to be in touch with nature, wildlife is just amazing and i wish to be in touch with it in the future.
2) Comb a lion's hair - lol, no, i am not crazy. One day i will. (I just dont know who will photograph me, but in case no one wants, i ll take a tripod. hehehe) Maybe i could do that in a zoo. =D
3) Cross Route 66 - In a car, listening to a good rock n roll. Alone or with somebody, doesnt matter, feeling like heaven is what matters.
4) To visit Amazonia in Brazil - Its my country, its nature of my country. I should go. I wanna go.
5) To make a snow man - I never touched snow :(

Ok, these are my very challengeful dreams, now here go some other ones that i have in mind for 2009:
1) To do my college in a university abroad - This doesnt depend only on me, but its not prohibited to dream. heheh
2) To be back to karate - thats my lifestyle, i wanna come back to it.
3) To teach yoga
4) To make my book for modelling - Why not?! Easier here in India than in Brazil...
5) To keep learning violin and guitar

These 10 were materialistics wishes, well, not that materialistic, a little bit i would say.
I prefer these kind of materialism than materialism that dont give us experience in life. Like shoes or bags for example.
Ahhhhh, i like to buy these stuffs but you know, its different.

Anyway, so here some wishes that i have in mind for the rest of my life:
1) Seeing God in everywhere/one
2) To love
3) To do my best, always
4) Dont having expectations
5) Drinking water
6) Being positive
7) Eliminating mind defects - fear, hate, ego, ignorance, attachment
8) Being friendly
9) Keep smiling
10) Always having more challenges to be completed - My life is complete when i have challenges remainning.

Now, two things that will never change:
- I will always be thankful to God
- I will always be happy

" Enjoy the day's simple pleasures and may those pleasures, simply make your day."

Sevagram tour - A journey to the heart of India

Hiii!
Ahnmn, i told that i would tell about my trip in this post, isnt it?!
Well, i ve got the pics now :D
I went to Wardha here in India. I was hosted in Arogyadham (http://www.arogyadham-seva.com/). It is a nice place, they have some activities like yoga and naturopathy. I would say its like a spa. I loved the treatments and the enviromment is very good too, but i found the food a little spiced in the beginning, but after the second day they were making non spiced food. (Good for me, haha)
Here one pic of the place:
This small doors are the rooms and there is a small very round tree, there is the massage/naturopathy room.
Some treatments i ve done:
- whole body mud application
hauhah, this was so funny, my friend and i did together, the woman applied mud on us then we had to be under the sun for a while, i was feeling like a monster after the mud dried. hahaha, then we took shower outside, cold water. haha, sounds weird but the weather was hot so it was fine.
- Spinal bath
Ah ok, this was nice but not sooo nice. heheh
I mean, i had to lie on a machine that massages the spine with water; the water comes 'with strenght' and its a little uncomfortable. I was wishing the time pass fast. hehe
- Massage
I dont need to say anything, massage is always nice. haha
- Steam bath/face
Hahaha, man, this was funny. First i did the facial steam, this was normal. The woman put a towel on my head and the steam was coming to my face. After that we feel very fresh.
The problem was the bath steam.. heheheh, they have cut a wood box so that people would get inside and this wood box has a whole so that your head stays out of the box.
I tried to get inside the box but i am too tall... my shoulders were on the same level of the whole.
¬¬
If i had insisted, my knees would be bended. hahah damn it. i couldnt try the body steam. anyway...
- That green cream on the face
Hehehe, they loved to see my green face, i have pics but its not on the pc. heheh
- Jalaneti
This is kriya yoga, i knew only one way to do jalneti, now i know 2 ways.
look what i learnt there:
I wish i had my pic doing this. hahah
It seems very difficult but its not.
You just have to put the pot in your nose and wait for the water to come out. Please dont do that at home without knowing properly how to do. Im just telling the gross thing, but actually the water should be well prepared. anyways..
The other way to do (the way i already knew) is like you have to breath in the water through one nostril then the water should go to your mouth. These are techniques of cleanness.
On this trip, i went with my yogic friends. We were 3 brasilians and 2 indians. (:
Well, next post i ll post something about my routine over there (beside the treatments, haha)
Today i m doing 2 posts in one day because my computer is not working (damn it) and .. anyway.
I ll be back. (:

Pooja!

Hello (after a long time...)!
Uau... i dont know why i took such time to come back to this blog, but anyway, i am back. (:
I ve done an interesting trip here in India, but i ll talk about this later on because the pics are not in this computer and i want to talk about it with the pics.
So, i ll tell about a hindu ritual that i did this week! :O
I live in a peaceful building.. and they were building another build right beside my building, hehehe, did u get this part? So, now the new building is ready and they wanted to celebrate (celebrate is not the right word for that but i forgot the word i need). I mean, to use the new apartments, they needed to do a ritual and to do this ritual they needed a non married girl/woman. (I think its because non married girls represent purity... i guess)
So, since the building is very small, i am the only girl non married.. so they called me to do.
I went there.
First, i didnt know what to do, so they asked me to remove my shoes and go inside the main hall of the new building. There was some flowers on the floor and a liquid, dont ask me what was that, haha, but it was smelling coconut.
so, they put a red painting on my forehead, that red 'pin' that indians use.. and they threw rice on me, hauahah
I had to tell the owner of the building: - come to me.
Hahahahh, dude, can u imagine my face?!?!
After that, we went inside an apartment and everybody went to the kitchen, they lightened the stove and put some flower on the stove and they were singing something that was sounding like prayers... At this time i was kinda frightened thinking that they would sacrifice me or something, hahha, just kidding.
They also threw flowers in a drawer in the bedroom. Then there was some small temples in the living room and they also did something which i could not see properly because of people in front of me --'
Then, my made was with me, she asked to take a picture with the owner, then i asked: - why? is he famous or something?
She said: - yes, very famous, he is Ekta Kapoor's dad and he does bollywood movies.
(Ekta Kapoor is like our lovely Silvio Santos. hehe)
Uauuu, even i took picture with him after that. hahahaha. Have a look:
His name is Mr. Jitendra.
I think you can find more informations about him on google.
Anyways, after all was over, he introduced himself and asked me where did i come from (of course he knew i am not from India, because i didnt know what to do on this ritual and because i didnt know him! hahahaha)
Ah yah, the name of the ritual is Pooja and its something like decorating gods and all so that they will have luck and success. (If you are an indian and you are reading this and you found some wrong information, be comfortable to correct me... cause this is the first time i pass through this experience! :P )
Look at me, do i look indian now?! :D
Hahahaha, thanks God, for each experience u give me!
Now look at this pic <-
This is the livingroom part that i told.. the owner was stepping right on that small carpet and they were making something, i couldnt see properly, but, probably they were putting flowers somewhere too. heheheh
Its a big living room, isnt it?!
But they expent just a little time on this room.. pity, because it was the most decorated room.
Now see here, they were doing the ritual...
After this part, they gave me an envelop and sweets.
I was not knowing what to do with the envelope, so they said me -put in your pocket..
Ok then.. after a while i said my made: -ohh i forgot to give the envelope!
She said me: -dont worry, the envelope is for you, there is money inside it. :O
Yeah, the envelope was really for me.. Some rupees were there. I could not get why they give money, but they do. Indians love to give money. hehehe
Well, yeah, i hope u enjoyed reading my most recently experience, now is time to go to bed.
Sorry but i ll not put thought for the day because the website is in my favourites of another computer. boh, anyway.
Have a nice day. (:
Namaskar!

Talk!

Today i did my first talk!
(that presentation i told you before) It was quite nice, i was nervous but i did it.
My friend recorded me, so i evaluated myself and now i ve got some points i need to get better. I was thinking english speech would be hard but it was not. I gonna tell you what i feel that needs to get better. First, i have to do my talks without glasses, i got distracted by constantly touching then; also, i ll do my next talk with my hair tight because when i get nervous, i keep touching something, like i did with my glasses and if glasses were not there, my hair would be the target. hehehe
Another thing is that i keep dancing and shaking hands while speaking. Clearly its sympton of anxiety.
Anyway. Mrs D liked my topic, and so the target group. They found it very interesting. XD
(I spoke about hiccups and how yoga helps)
Well, i could explain this to you but i fell like not wanting to hear about hiccups for a long time. hjehueuheuhe
But i can tell you that yoga helps through pranayamas. (:
Ok, you don't know what is pranayama, right?
Pranayama is the control of our bio-energy, our breathing.
Particularly , i am proud of myself because i have choosen the yogic cures for hiccups, i mean, i didnt search on any place for yogic cure, i just looked for homecures, but yogic cure i ve made it, and man, its danm nice. heheh
I have choosen the pranayamas IV, V, VII and IX because they have retention and suspension of our breathing, and when we do this, we are increasing carbon dioxide in our blood, so that, the body removes this carbon dioxide and forgets about creating hiccups.
*Excepting for the pranayama IV which you have only to focus and control your breathing through the diaphragm.
Uffs. This was a part of my talk. hihu! :D
Now, changing abruptely the subject, i ve got a new hobby which is photography.
I ve got a lot of influences, so i opted for this hobby. I am very open minded and i like to do many things, thats why i have lots of hobbies, but sometimes, having lots os hobbies is not a good deal because you might dont have time for all or not get improved in all hobbies. Both are my case. hehe
This pic was taken in Collaba, this building is one of the stations here in Mumbai.
Particularly, i found this pic very nice. hihu.
This is the beautiful part of the city that i live.
See this black and yellow old cars. These are taxis!
huihuih, soooo old, so noisy and cute at the same time!
Now, take a look at that white car from the right side. This car is taking part of the contrary road, hahah! Its completely normal, it was remaining 8 seconds to the traffic light become green, but this car was not bothering. hauhaha, when the light became green, most of the cars started to horn and then the white car got out.
Yah yah, horn is one thing that drivers love. It is written 'horn please' on each truck we see. hehe
I got used to all these horns.
Now see the difference. This is another part of the city.
People live at these places!
Some people does not have neither places like that; they just lie down at the side walk (if they find one).

So... will you still complain of something?


I also took this pic. See, i am not a photographer, as i told you, its just a new hobby. My intention is not only showing how i am improving in photography subject or whatever, but the real aim is to show some meanings of life, to show the reality.
Anyway.
Right now, i am hearing a song which says: "This is real, this is me, i am exactly what i am supposed to be now, gonna let the light, shine on me.." - Demi Lovato - This Is Me
This is a teenager song, but if you listen carefully this part (i mean, this phrase) and try to put it like a practice in your life, you can live happily with what you are, where you are and yet, you will automatically shine. No need to complain.

Hola amigos

Hola!
Sorry folks, but todays post will be small, i am kinda tired and its late night.
haha, today started with hi in spanish.
Spanish because, i noticed that i did a good friendship at yoga institute. This new friend is mexican and she is doing yoga with me. She is a nice person, funny i would say! haha!
The most funny thing i found, is that i dont notice when she is speaking english or spanish. Yeah, i mean, i can understand both languages and when she speaks, after a while i notice which language. Ok, example.. Suppose she speaks with me in spanish, while she is speaking, i am hearing, but i am not noticing which language she is speaking, i am just listening and understanding... But when i m going to reply i become to notice. hahaha.
Its a funny thing, sometimes she is speaking spanish and i reply in english, or sometimes she is speaking english and i reply in portuguese or mix of portuguese, spanish and english, ehehehehhe
Yah, i do that because my spanish is una mierda. hahahah
I can understand very well, but to speak its another story. =P
I think this mexican has the same little problem i have, people think wrong about our language. Ej.: People come to me and say -ohh you are brasilian, so you speak spanish/brasilian. There are a few that know that brasilians speak portuguese and not spanish or 'brasilian'. hahahah
I have heard people saying to my mexican friend: - ohh you are mexican, so teach me mexican words.
hahahah, i ve heard this twice at the same classroom, and for the first time, the mexican replied: -mexican is a nationality, we speak spanish!
hahah, dude, she broke their legs by saying that. hihiuhuehauehau
Also, she likes parties very much, she is always calling me to go somewhere. I think mexicans are very fun and outgoing people, just like brasilians. (yes, i know one more mexican. thats why i am saying)
Anyway, its nice to have friends, i was missing to have a good friend at classroom, just like school time. (:
Well, today my day was ok. I was suppose to wake up early but my sleep was stronger than me. So, i slept... in the afternoon, internet was not working, i wrote one more talk. Now i have to get these 2 talks for correction so that i can do them this week. - tiring.

Ganesh

Olá!
Today my hello is in my language. =D
After a whole week without posting, here i am again.
Well, today was satsang day again and i was there at the institute shooting the actors when i realized that i forgot to sign my attendance.
Shit shit shit shit shit...
And i lost a violin class to go to this satsang; I need this attendance so i can finish my course as soon as possible but then, i forgot... holy crap.
Anyway,. I shoot some of my friends after the satsang, they were asking what i am up to with my camera , hahah, i told them its just a new hobby! Then i went back home, watched a movie and now i am suppose to finish that damn talks because also, i discovered that i need to do 2 talks before starting the 7 days camp - otherwise i can't do it. Hunf:~
Yah, i ll be volunteer of this 7 days camp, i think it will be fun, cause a lot of foreigns (i never know how to spell this word) come to do it, usually they do this course because foreigns dont have much time to expend here in India, they usually come to visit or business, both cases they dont have time enough. One thing about this camp that i dont like, is that the institute explain the concept of humility, but if they only explain it would be ok, but also, they make the students clean the institute, like sweeping the floor or cleaning the windows. I mean, this is not right i guess, its exploration, hahaha.
I am telling this because i believe its not cleaning floors and windows that will make one humble.
I believe that through explanation and examples we can awake the feeling of humility in someone. For example, i was talking to a friend on messenger and we reached this subject, i told him that by living here, seeing all this people on the streets, i stopped complaining about having tissues in the toilets. hehehe, this is just an example, but yet i tell you, that by living here and seeing, i stopped complaing about many things; materialistic things most of the times.
So, now i can show you some pictures, but which pictures? I posted all pics from India in my album at orkut.com
Ok, so, this pic is also in my orkut but nevermind, its one of my favorites!
Look, they look like Chiquititas! Soo cute! I was walking and i saw them, they noticed that i was trying to take their pic, haha, then this girl from right side (who is pointing the finger) asked me if i wanted their pic, and she said me to come by their side, so that we could appear in the pic together. I shoot this pic then they had to rush cause their bus was coming...
Now see this girl with scarf and pants; she looks like muslim, but i am not sure if she is. I m judging only by the clothes. Well, she is not looking at me while shooting. I heard once that muslims cannot take pictures, now dont ask me, cause i dont know if its true, hehe, i must ask this... But last year, i took a picture with a friend of mine, she follows islamism. I dont understand that much of religions, but if its the same thing i dont know. Now i am curious about that and i feel like figuring it out. hihu!
Now this elephants are for the coming festival wich is Ganesh! I am sure everybody heard about Ganesh once in a life. hehehe
Ganesh is one god of hinduism, also is considered the master of intelect and knowledge. He is also know as Remover of Obstacles (Lord of Beginnings and Lord of Obstacles), because he has an elephant head and his transportation is a rat. On this way, he shows logics solutions for problems.
This festival takes 10 days of duration and indians make big parties at the streets and they carry statues of Ganesh to the temples, its nice to see, the festival will start on 2nd september i think... I know its on the beginning of september.
I am sure from that time, i will have a lot of pics to show you! huihuih
For those who dont know which god i am talking about, here goes a pic of him:

Satsang day!

Hello..
Now, while eating pringles i am typing this post. Nham...
Well, today was a reflective day i would say.
I woke up, went to satsang* in the morning, then i was waiting for a brasilian friend to come here, but she didnt come. I mean, she is sister of my brother's friend, so, my brother called him to have lunch here, my mom told me to invite his sister also. Well, let's say we are not close friends. We just know each other.
They just didnt come, without call us to say they could not make it.
So, now, i have to eat Lasagna every day...
My parents and brother went out, i stayed home doing my talks and books summaries. Then the power got off, i mean, no lights, in the night, luck of me my mobile was next to me, so i could take a few candles. At this moment Max was with me, we were alone in the house, i mean, if i would be alone i think i would be very scary or kinda of. But my dog was with me, i felt like i should 'protect' him, so i wasnt scary, i was very calm and took the candles. It seems nonsense, but in fact, we have this instincts.. Another example was when we (mom, 'brotha', dog and me) were at the airport . If i would be alone maybe i would get lost or feel like lost, but i was the one who could communicate properly and i was thinking about taking care of my family, so i felt more 'responsible'. Usually, my dad does everything at these places like airport, but this day, dad was not there. We made ourselves on our own. (:
Back to today, hehe, i am feeling a bit weird. But not because of the blackout or whatever, I mean, people forget us very easily, i was looking at my orkut.. what for do i have that thing?!
Well, it took more time for this to happen then i really thought. I am thankful anyway.
Now back to India, hueuheh...
*Satsang is a kind of acting that we do every sunday to teach yoga for the public, anyone over here can come and watch, its free; i mean, we teach yoga through acting, performance, its very fun, a different way to teach yoga) .We have 2 kinds of teachers training course, the hindi batch and the english batch, in alternate sundays, each batch make your performance and also decoration of the institute.. Usually we get tired after each satsang, but is fun..
Surely i took pictures to show you and also, i made a smaaaaall video clip; this last sunday satsang was in hindi.
This is the video:

And here i have some pictures. Look carefully at each detail, each cloth... (:
Now this is a part of the decoration. It's the OM symbol. Very popular in yoga stuffs.. It's made of petals, sometimes, they make with colourful sand.. Its just so beautiful!
Particurlarly, i prefer with sand, its more delicate..
Candles are always present in the satsang.
Ah ya, they dont the habit of lighting incenses. I mean, i see some incenses to sell, but at the institute i never saw someone practicing with it. Weird, but yet, i never asked, hahaha, i will ask surely. ;D
Now see this picture below, they were acting! (:
Those in the middle, in white and orange colour are Dr Jayadeva and Hansaji. They are the masters of the institute, the teacher of the teachers! heheueueh! In indian culture, people touch their (masters) feet to show respect.
Now i will become their photographer,. hahahah!
Next satsang i ll be acting, i hope someone take pics of me! :D
Ah ya ya, i told that i am very shy etc etc, but, its not the end of the world, i ll do that *again* easily,. hihuhih
Sorry for not write that much today also, its already midnight. Gotta sleep.
Yeah, i am becoming better on managing my camera! XD
Oh yeah, one more thing, i have deleted my flog. -- Its not a new information anyway.

Kinda boring.

Hello!!
Today, saturday, kinda boring day. I did nothing very useful i guess.. I just washed the dishes (boring³), then studied a little about english, went to yoga class. Booooring. The first lecture was about babies. Dude... I didnt deserve that lecture... Then we had the medical talks. More interesting. After that, Dr. Jayadeva took the lecture about sutra. Usually i am not able to understand him very well, because he speaks too low and not that clear. Anyway, when i dont follow him, i copy from someone else. hihuh!
Then finally we had Samkhya class. It was interesting, the class i enjoyed the most today.
Ok, now...what to write... I could speak about yoga again, but today i feel like not speaking very much.
I can talk a little more of India.. how about that? :D
I told someday that we have small shops (stores) over here..
See, actually, there are some small shops more acessible, but they usually are near a big mall or kind of. >>
Looks like christmas time isnt it?! I like this road very much, there are lots of stores, no place to walk at all but we can have a lot of fun! heheue
Now, if you look at these three guys in front of the shop, yes, they were looking and probably talking about me. hehehehe
I can say that indians are very curious. They keep looking at me, making questions like -how many baths you take in a day, how do you do your hair curls (man, every day i have to explain that i do nothing.) etc.. Also, they take our pictures with their mobiles and they think i am not noticing but actually i am very aware! heuheheuheh.. Okay okay, i am taking their pictures too, so, no reason to be angry. In the truth, we take pictures from each other because our difference is too big, i mean, we look different, we have different habits, different religion, everything is different, i just cannot find anything same as Brazil. Even the big brands are different. Yes, adidas is not the same everywhere! hehehe. I mean, in Brazil we have adidas clothes for sports, here they have too, but, can you imagine you doing a sport with gold or silver t-shirt.. i mean, every clothes are so shiny, hahahah. Yet, women like to go to gym with fashion silver bag and they keep feet nails always long. (i think they are not able to wear tennis with that nails..)
I dont think women from here like to wear tennis anyway. (:
Now, this is the open-air market or street market if you prefer so.


Yaaah, you can see this pic and say

unpleasant things or whatever, but i tell you what, many times, these fruits are better than the supermarket ones... Seriously.
Look at this guy clothes. Pink t-shirt. For them, its just one more color. They dont have 'blue for boys and pink for girls'. All colors are the same.

Now see the woman's clothes. Its traditional indian clothes (women). This cloth name is Saree ( pronuncia-se: sarí ) and usually old women wear this kind of clothes more than youngers. Youngers are now wearing more western clothes, but they still like their own (indian) clothes. I mean, i have friends that wear only western clothes, but when they see me in indian clothes they praise me so much....

Now see one picture of youngsters wearing western clothes... They were probably going to or leaving from college. (:
(remember i told about the tennis?! huhuihuhui)
Yeah, i like to talk about India. Theres a lot to say about and yet you want to know more and more. (:
Well, i think i am done for today!
Hope you enjoyed the pics, though they are small.. :/
(:

India

Hiiie!
Today, my mom was alone instead of me. heueuhe. I went to yoga earlier, for special class. We have to observe this classes (one per month) and make notes and take signature. Well, everybody knows that i am very organized with my stuffs, hehe, so, i made my notes in a draft, so i could make beautifully in my real book later. Teacher didnt give me the signature, she said only after i write on the right book. shit. Never again i shall go to this batch (I used to go in the morning, today i went in the afternoon).
Anyway, after that i decide to explore the institute road. My friend from hindi batch came with me. She does not speak english, only a few things, but we are friends. huhuhh. We went to a small shop and had ice cream and orange juice (of course i would have my favorite juice, even if i had an ice cream in hands. heheh).
Then I came back to the institute for regular classes, my friend went home. Remember i told that i usually give ride for Payal and Sudhi?! Well, indians are so shy with some things, i must say, hahaha.. today my dad was in the car to pick me up, and payal got in the car, Sudhi didnt, he went home by train, he was shy because my dad was in the car... It is not the first time that it happens, i think indians are like that.
Yaah, i am talking about indians, so i feel like posting some pics from here.. huihuihu
GOTCHA!! HAHA!

That guy was having fun hahahah; those boys noticed that i was taking their pics, so i just waved at them, they laughed, i tried to take pic of them laughing but the car moved out. ):
Yaa, they use formal clothes as school uniform.. I think they look like "chiquititas" heueuhehuh, but some of them, are cute. (ya, i am not friend of children. heueuheh)
Once, i was at the airport and i saw an indian boy with tuxedo and shoes.. i was wondering where was the wedding, but actually, their parents made this to him. heheueuh, pity... he would be hours inside the plane with that clothes.
Who would like a Pepsi?!?!

Well, the small shops i always talk about are like this one. hehehe
Not kidding!!!
I shall show another picture to prove my words..

Dude, i really wanted my pictures larger, bigger, but this blog i dont know how to opperate very well i guess... pictures are very small here ):
If you guessed 'man, whole mumbai is in workmanship' yes, you are right. I think i inhale lots of kilos of dust. If wasnt yoga to help me to breath.. hehe, i would be doomed i guess.
Yah, that's it, i ll not write too much today. Also, i will not speak about yoga stuffs today. I started to write late night, means, i am tired.
Hope you enjoy the pics. (:
Ah ya, i changed again the font. XD
