Its been 7 years of Livejournal.
Lots of turns in life, lots of changes, lots of growing up...

I am now in a new phase in life, with new objectives and old dreams.
I feel that I am starting a new phase, that has been in the process for the last 4 and a half years.

So...
I have moved!
You can see me here. Visit me!!!! :-)

I'd like all my livejournal friends to follow me there from now on... :-)

I have been thinking for a while in coming back to my diaries. I have never been much of a diary writer, much because I always thought I was writing and no one would be reading it, but I always loved diaries! I have them stored at home, all of them, most of them ended up being used to write my poem collection.

Because tradition is still what it used to be, my online diaries are going through the same path... Left abandoned for years and, all of a sudden, they get a blow to dust off and here it goes.

I have two. This one and another where I only write in Portuguese.

This past two years have been keen on changes... From a wedding to a pregnancy and, now, motherhood, I have been more absorbed than I ever anticipated or imagined. But I need to find myself again!!! I need to go back to exploring other areas of my life that are now in stand-by. And I need to win procrastination!!!!!!

Well... All this to say that I may be back to publishing stuff. I say maybe because I have been thinking about creating another blog (and now, anyone who's been reading this will be wondering if I'm crazy... I have two, I don't write in ages, and I'm crating another?!)...

Yeah... The question is, I have been reading another blog from someone I met not long ago, but who I've been learning to admire immensely... This person does what I, in all sincerity, think will be probably the solution for me. A blog in english AND portuguese... I feel like stealing the idea and do the same. I will think of it. And I will talk to the person in question to ask her if its ok to steal her idea!. :-)

I still don't have a name, nor layout, nor idea of what I'll write there... But I want to start doing something, and a blog is the most immediate thing!

Let's see for how long this vein goes.

Hi,

I was born on the 29th August at 12:45 GMT.
My weight was 2.755Kg at the time, and I started screaming as soon as I was taken out of my mommy's belly (it was a cesarean).

Everything is OK and all the family is proud! :-)

( Want to see me? )

And this is our wedding ring:

I thought you would like to see some pictures of my wedding.
I don't have many of them yet, but these have been sent by friends of mine that took them, so here they are. Click on each to see a bigger version! :-)

( Inside tag in order not to overwhelm you with the beauty of the moment... Eh Eh Eh! )

[EDIT: Added one more picture of my back, so you can properly see the wings...]

As most of you might now, I am getting married next Saturday, and free time simply ceased to exist a few months ago...
While getting married was never my greatest goal in life, somehow it does make a little bit of sense with this guy.
The way I see it, there's nothing ohhh so special about it, it's just making something that already exists official in the eyes of society and bureaucracy in general. Because, yes, there are juridic laws for couples that are not married, but everything is way easier when the piece of paper exists.

The wedding itself will be, I hope, unforgettable to the people who were able to go.
Just because I can, I made lots of nice unusual things for the day...
I am not giving any details right now because they are supposed to be surprises and there are people who read this who will be there.

Expect some delay on posting news after it, because, yes, I am going on a honeymoon!!!
Other advantages of getting married are: we are supposed to do a trip (what a shame!) and we have 2 more weeks of vacations on top of the rest we already have... So, as you might imagine, I'm weeping immensely for having to go on a trip on the first of my brand new 2 weeks of vacations... Eh Eh Eh. The other week I'll just procrastinate, which is something I have forgotten how to do.

So, yah, I'm getting married next Saturday.
Incredible, no?

I love my sis and I miss her.
I also am proud of her and all that she's been able to achieve.

This is valid to both my sisters.
My blood family rock. My spiritual one too.

I'm fortunate.

I've been caught by South Park's camera woman, Satine...
