yes, I watch big brother brasil

I watch it obsessively. And they are down to the three finalists. Tomorrow all of Brazil will know who has won the big prize of R$ 1,5 million reais (over 800 thousand dollars). It'll either be...

Dourado, a jiu-jitsu fighter and a closeted homophobe,

Fernanda, who has said she will spend the prize money on plastic surgery,

or Cadu, a sweet angel from heaven above, who is also the one I am rooting for.

This post is really a tribute to Cadu. A 24 year old personal trainer from Rio de Janeiro. Despite his young years, he is kind, consistent in his opinions and makes me want to carry his children.

He is completely not the type I go for. This is more my style:

But Cadu...

makes me sweat.

a note to myself

Don't ever flirt with a cab driver again. Not matter how bad things get.

It's very uncomfortable for all those involved.

holy crap

It's been a while since we last saw each other, hasn't it?

I want this for myself:

"homeless chic"

Nobody knows the identity of "Brother Sharp", a nickname given to this homeless man from Ningbo, China. But after a resident of Ningbo posted a picture of him online, Brother Sharp has become an icon of "homeless chic" (read full article on The Independent).

You can't deny his good looks. You can't deny he has "style". However...

There is something really fucked up about this.

guess what

We women now have the option to bedazzle our vaginas. Or, rather, "vajazzle".

How unimpressive are shiny vaginas? Show me a woman who can spit fire out of her woman hole and then we'll talk.

old & abandoned

This weekend I came across this website: São Paulo Abandonada & Antiga (São Paulo abandoned and old).

A historian and a photographer (Glaucia Garcia de Carvalho and Douglas Nascimento, respectively) have created a catalogue of São Paulo's rundown and abandoned buildings, since 2009. The objective, according to the pair, is to preserve the memory of the city through its historic yet unrestored buildings and constructions. The photographed structures range from old mansions, schools, factories, hospitals, and even monuments.

Going through São Paulo, it is easy to miss these once grand buildings, a lot of times hidden amongst recent constructions. I think it's wonderful that these buildings are being documented in this site as many of them will probably be demolished. I have read that some buildings have already been restored, thanks to this site.

How different São Paulo would look if someone took an interest in its preservation.

on the weekend

1. I am feeling deeply guilty. Yesterday, as I was driving, I saw a cat get run over by the car in front of me. I didn't stop to help it. Cats scare the shit out of me, but he was run over by a car. I should have stopped and taken it to a vet.

2. I found out a guy I am interested in just broke up with an emotionally retarded girl. If that's what he's into, then he should really call me.

3. After seeing It's Complicated this weekend, I realised that I would do Steve Martin. Then I realised that I have actually felt his way since Roxanne.
