The Sea

At every step she took she could feel the blisters on her toes. the lines on her hands were covered by a layer of dirt and the white palms had gotten used to the constant shade of gray. She knew that by every pace she was closer to where she wanted to be, she only needed to figure out where that place was. She then felt a smell she couldn't quite place, a smell she was sure she had seen once before but now seemed like a distant memory. it was only when the sound became clear that she realized where she was. The salty smell she before couldn't distinguish now was strong and a natural component of the place she was, the sea breeze hit the messy hair, and even those sad colorless locks flew in the placid wind of the seaside. Through the trees she couldn't quite see the expected water and she grew almost desperate to push through those thick shrubbs that seemed to be there in the sole attempt of teasing her. She pushed a specially thorny branch and blood trickled down her arm, the pain caused her eyes to water and only after they ran down her cheek in the form of tears was it clear enough for her to look up at the imensitude of blue she was faced with. Waves crashed into rocks with a force that dazed her. she walked further on and the painful feet walked over the sand, she smiled as the tiny grains slipped in between her toes and under the dirty lashes her eyes sparkled with a childish anxiety. She couldn't restrain any longer so she broke into a sprint towards the water. As she first placed her toe inside she winced at the coldness but soon her whole body was in.
For the first time in very long, she had a plan. as the sun settled lower in the sky she swam farther away,swam and swam. swam until the dirty hair was engulfed into a blanket of water, and as it was before she came, the placid beach returned to its usual state.

I feel i have neglegted the blog, pois bem. I am in sp and it feels really nice being here. i traveled for a few days to the country house (however you say that in english) and it was really nice, i went with a friend i hadn't seen in ages and it was nice to talk. i'm back now and in don't think i have ever been so "mimada" and thats saying a lot concidering how much i ussually am. This morning i woke at 5:00 in the morning, don't ask me why. and it was acctually really great because i finnaly caught up with mu reading. I'm now reading Tess of the D'ubervilles which is a really nice book, but i do feel guilty because i should be reading it in french to practise a bit. i have been doing french classes again, and after being refused at the Aliança Francesa i began with a private teacher, she is amazing, i absolutly love her, it is worth paying just to talk to her, her french is perfect and she knows all the cool plays and artshows to go to and i'm having so much fun.
Today i called tech support for the internet and i have to admit i had amazing amounts of fun talking to the people there, it took about 50 minutes on the phone for my tech skills (or rather lack of) to kick in and manage to fix the problem. However the guy that was helping me out was just so adorable it was really fun, he had this cute accent from Bahia and he was really worried because he couldn't fix it and in the end he started talking and talking and telling me that he worked there for only a month and that he just got married to this girl and they were trying to save money so he was working two jobs and serio, he was beyond adorable.
Today my grandmother announced we're having fondue for dinner, and i i'm not kidding that i'm about to kill myself, everywhere i go someone remembers i like fondue so they make me eat it again. very very soon someone is going to find me with a foundue stick stuck up my brain and cheeze blocking my breathing.
my grandfather is having a heart attack (not the real kind, vicky) because i am on the computer for too long. beijos
oh and something i can't forget to say!! hj eu tava passando na frente de um posto de gasolina e tinha uns tres caras com uma blusa escrita "Equipe do Lubrificante", tipo que lubrifica carros, but still i couldnt stop laughing
