How to clean your White MacBook

The worst thing about white MacBooks is that they get dirty quite easily. After having searched the internet for several different kinds of ways to clean my MacBook, the best way (apparently) to do so is with a product called Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Well, since I live in Brazil and we don’t have this [...]

Diet

Somehow my cholesterol diet didn’t work. 4 months ago (or so) I did some blood tests and the results were not good. My doctor said I should go on a fat-free diet to see if I could reduce it. 4 months later (today) I have a new appointment at the doctor’s office to show him [...]

MacBook

It’s been a week I’ve got my MacBook. To be honest with you, I’m really pleased with it. I’ve always wanted to have a Mac coz It just looked cool. But it’s much more than a trandy piece of plastic. Mac OS (Leopard in my case) is way much better and reliable than Vista Windows. [...]

Iron Maiden back in Brazil in March.

As I expected:
Following the huge international success of their spectacular ‘Somewhere Back in Time World Tour 08′ Iron Maiden will be taking to the skies once again in 2009 for a fourth and final leg starting in Dubai on February 13th.
Loaded up with a full complement of band, crew and twelve tons of stage set [...]

R.E.M.

I had never been a fan of R.E.M. before 2001, when I first saw them live at Rock in Rio 3. In fact, I quite disliked them because they were trendy in the 90s and I tend to dislike most trendy stuff. After the 2001 gig I saw how great they are live and I [...]

Eleventh hour

When I read the plot I thought “I don’t need another X-Files kind of show, aren’t they tired of it?” And right after that I read that the show was a remake of another British show and that the main character is played by Rufus Sewell. My impression changed immediately and now I’m watching the [...]

Can you hear me Major Tom? Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow!

I’m going through this big Bowie phase at the moment, which means I’m depressed. Whenever I’m on a ‘phase’ it’s because I’m depressed. The ‘phase’ is usually a Skunkworks phase (see old posts for reference), and for no specific reason it has changed this time. Not that it hadn’t changed before. It once was a [...]

Second Date (continued)

Second attempt of having a second dated failed yesterday. On Tuesday morning I started to chat with her on MSN and after a few minutes invitded her out by saying that I was thinking about going to the theater and would like her to go with me. And that’s when she didn’t reply anything… I [...]

After almost 30 years later…

Earlier today I overheard a conversation among my mother, my oldest uncle and their aunt. And after almost 30 years later, I found out that my youngest uncle isn’t actually my uncle, biologically speaking, I mean. Apparently my grandmother adopted him when he was a baby. Well, it wasn’t a shock. Actually, it does make [...]

Second Date

My first attempt of getting a second date has just failed. Just called her at work inviting her to have something to eat after it. Well, she had already made plans for tonight, which she explained detailed, and then she said other opportunities would appear. And before I could have asked her if she was [...]
