Coldplay

We were theeeeeere!
O2 arena in Praha!!
COLDPLAY TOUR!!
The concert was trully passionate and they made me feel warm inside while playing (trust me: difficult achievement due to the freezing temperature outside).
Turana and I at Coldplay conceeeeert ;)
Coldplay live at Praha - Fix U, Viva la Vita Tour
Not even Chris Martin's humour could've stoped me from dropping a tear on this one x)

"Love" vs "Amor"

Why are we so afraid to use the word "love"?
Or aren't we? Is it just me...?

The truth is it actually doesn't sound so compromising in english, but in our own language it gets a whole new meaning.

"Amo-te" should mean something like: i'll mary you and have your children. LOL call me oldfashioned, that's what i naively believe in.

However to say the words "I love you" isn't so terrible. It just means you love/like/whatever one person now but it doesn't imply that you won't love/like/whatever another person in the future.

How can the same word have such a different meaning when translated?

Is our way of living, are our beliefs, so intricate into our own words that simply translating them isn't enough? Once again I ask: what do words mean? What are they trully for? And how do feelings change so dramatically from one language to another?

And by the way, how do we say in portuguese "I love you" and in english "amo-te"?

Jogos Olímpicos

E pronto, não que seja surpresa para alguém, mas andam aí os JO, acompanhados por uma série de records batidos de forma extraodinária.
(O Phelps é uma máquina... É que nem sequer tenho palavras para descrever o fenómeno.)
E os nossos atletas estão a portar-se super bem!! Imeeeeensos records nacionais a cair na natação! Isto deixa-me extremamente feliz, até mesmo rejubilante! xDD

E claro, como não podia deixar de ser, um apelo desportivo e do coração ao nosso querido Fernando:
Vamos lá pessoal! 6f às 8hs da matina de Pequim, quero tudo colado à tv a torcer pelo nosso Nandinhooooo nos 1500freestyle!! xDD

YEY! Os Jogos rulam!! \o/

Svefn-g-englar

Com muito pouco tempo para respirar, deixo 1 música que faz esquecer que o tempo existe x)


"Music is well said to be the speach of angels; in fact, nothing amog the utterances allowed to man is felt to be so divine. It brings us near the infinite."
