the a.m. walk

My first dip into film-making.



Apologies for the frivolity!

Wired

This is not lack of motivation, just an acute sense o'self preservation. Nothing new! Just the very same that's been keeping me sane. Appearance's a bitch!

Coimbra

I was born in Coimbra and I'm pissed-off by the fact that there's so few info about my city online, or it's rather scattered and badly translated into English.
A couple of months ago, a Danish friend of mine asked me for help, because he was taking his girlfriend there and he wanted to know of some places to visit. I could have just made a list, but it didn't seem enough... It didn't seem right at all! So I made, not one, but five maps with different activities, to be carried out in that aulde city of mine.
They are all in Google Map format, follow the links below:
So, if you have friends who have shown an interest in visiting Coimbra, please direct them to this post. Then again, if you follow this blog, you probably have no friends.

to current affairs.

In the long run we are all dead."

Couldn't have said it better myself!

Need I say more?

A sermon to the fishes

I'll tell you this much, I was not born to be idle.
A few days without physical exercise and my body starts aching in places as strange as they come. I need to change. See new places, experience a new reality... something. Still not done growing up, I guess. Otherwise, why does it feel so good to have a new challenge? I'm 26 and experiencing a new kind of frenzied will to put myself to the test and I'm frikin' loving it.
Am I making a mistake? Should I just keep still?
I've been watching to many people do that and I'm definitely not fond of the end result, so far. Full-grown people still living with their parents, not taking a chance with the world, afraid of bearing their own weight or carrying the risk of a new endeavour. Not for me, thanks!
I'm afraid to loose, as any person who's born with a competitive mindset is. But I have. In more ways than one, I've lost my fair share and I will loose some more. By any rate loosing is an effective way of learning and not something to keep myself from sticking my neck out... And hey, my neck's still here and he's going effin' strong!

Candlelight Poetry


There's not a photo of you that can capture what I saw
No amount of words can describe it and no formula can explain it
I see it still, the goosebumps assure me of that.





Alright...

Cave dwelling

My mind is swarming with ideas which I cannot realize right now. 1.5's the new magic number which symbolizes happiness.
I'm shape-shifting into a cave dweller, for the next couple of weeks and my Doors albums ARE my playlist... Guess it's exam season!

By hook or crook

What I stand to loose is but peanuts, when compared to the rest. One would think I would take solace in this fact, but the truth is, looking back, I just hate myself a bit more for being so lucky and yet...
