Musical Friday #45

Old Market Square in Nottingham 2010

Hello everyone! And Happy Easter! :D May you be filled with chocolate eggs XD.
Soooooooooooooooooo this week passed really fast, or is it just me?
Last Saturday I went to Stonehenge and Bath with my work colleague Mina, great trip, I was so dead by the end, I will try in the future to do a post about it. OMG I still need to finish my Posts about my experience and Prague, and Mozambique and my roadtrip las Summer, and now in London, ooohhh my daaayyyy. It's really hard for me to focus were I'm leaving at, with a almost 4 year old child always bugging me around.
Anyways, today after work I will be going to Nottingham! Haven't been there almost two years now. For those of you that don't know in the year 2009/2010 I was an Erasmus student at Nottingham Trent University, again it was an awesome experience not only party wise but also academically, they have a bit of a different measure of teaching which I found very good and accessible. I will be going with my friend Zuzana, who also was an Erasmus student on the same year as me, that were we met, and we will meet up with other to friends of ours from the same time as us Sarah and Maria. AAHHHHH I'm so existed just hope the weather is good . Is gonna be so freaking weird to go back to Nottingham.
Yesterday I had another Acting Class, OMG, I'm so tired. Did I signed up for an acting class or a gym class? XD We did some acting yesterday, ooohhh I love it so much. Whenever is my time to act, right before going I get a bit nervous “Oh no, I'm gonna make a full of myself, this is so embarrassing” but then once I'm in VVVUUUTTT I'm in the ZONE! I forget about everybody else in the room, is just me and whoever is acting with me. AAHHH WHAT A RUSH!
Hope you enjoy the music selection of today :).

P.S.: Oh by the way, I don't know if you get any notifications or not, but I've been replying to some of your comments/question on the same post, with the “Reply” option. Just to let you know. But I will still visit your Blogs when I got the time, ok? Xoxo

Jennifer Lopez - Dance Again ft. Pitbull – New Single – Jennifer's new video is muuuyyy caliente! And if you wanna have a Hit Single, “who you gonna call?” - haha you see what I did there lol – Pitbull of course! In this video, you can see Jennifer interacting with her new “boyfriend” Casper, who is also one of her dancers. You would think that after Jennifer married one of her dancers back in 2001 with Cris Judd she would not mess with dancers, plus to do a video with you love one in my personal opinion is almost like doing a Tattoo on your body with your boyfriends name... it's a curse! Coff Coff Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck “Jenny from the Block”.... I'm just saying... But HEY don't get me wrong, I still love Miss Lopez <3.

Double B-day (2010)


So last weekend (18 of April) was my birthday, Hurraayyy now I'm 24 -_-' lol, never thought I would get this far XD. My B-day was on a Sunday, and on Saturday it was my friend's Zuzana B-day (she turned 21). So we decided to do a Double B-day.
Two weeks before the Birthdays, I sent a message through Facebook to our Erasmus friends, to ask them if any of them would like to join us for the Double B-day. Me and Zuzana weren't expecting many people because it was Easter holidays, everybody goes to their home country bla bla bla. But surprisingly about 11 people came plus other 5 that I didn't knew lol for the dinner.
So yeah, on Saturday, I did my pampering, pseudo-spa treatment, washing my hair, shaving lol, exfoliate my body and my face, then I did blow dry and straighten my hair. After finishing that, I went to Zuzana's house, and helped her blow dry and crimp her hair, and I also did her eye make-up, and I used false eyelashes for her, it it looked awesome. Then I did my make-up, but no false eyelashes :P
Dinner was at 8pm I think, so we left the house (me, Zuzana, and Maria) around 7:40pm. Arrived at the restaurant at 8:01pm lol, we were the 1st, so that was good, Oh the name of the restaurant is The Citi, is a buffet restaurant with, Thai, Chinese, Indian, and Italian food (what the hell is Italian food doing in that mix lol), then in the following minutes the rest of the people arrived. It was a nice dinner.




After dinner, we went to my and Zuzana's favourite nightclub in Nottingham Dogma >.<>





Then on Sunday, for my B-day, it was a more chill'out celebration. We went to Alboretum Park around 4pm, and had a picnic, and the 2 French girls, each one baked a cake :P Juliette did a chocolate cake and Axelle a nuts cake, they were both delicious nom nom nom.






Thank you all for coming, and thanks to all that wished me a happy B-day, specially my friends from back home, that couldn't be here <3

Never go to a Kebab shop at late hours

Once upon a time 4 girls went to their favourite local nightclub called Dogma. Karen (that's me), Zuzana, Eva, and Kamila.
Karen was the 1st one to arrive, she stayed outside Dogma, waiting for the other girls. On that night there was a queue at Dogma's door, which was rare to happen. Then the other 3 girls arrived, they entered, and Karen notice something odd going on inside, about 3 or 4 Dogma's employees were cleaning the floor o_Ô huh? Did someone spild a jug of Vodka on the floor? Nope, there wasn't it, on the 1st floor of Dogma it's the toilets, and probably something happen with the pipes and then shiz happened >.< . So the girls had a drink, and then went downstairs to dance. They dance the night away, great music that night,and of course as always an occasional guy, that just stands there on the dance floor, “looking around” with their leather jacket on and also the occasional guys fighting and then the security comes along, break the fight and take the guys out.
After having fun at the nightclub the 3 Russian girls (Zuzana, Eva and Kamila) [there are not Russian, they're from Slovakia] were feeling hungry, so all 4 went to a Kebab shop that was close to another bar called Bodega. It was around 3am. It was a very small place and it was kinda full of hungry people. So the girl ask for a burger with chips and a pizza and they stayed at the Kebab place to eat. There were some young teenagers in there, one of them all happy 'cause it was his B-day, and he turned 18. Some minutes later, those teenagers left and two guys started to fight, God knows why. At first we thought, “Oh it's going to end soon.”, but no, it didn't, the owners of the Kebab place, didn't manage, or didn't have the balls to fully separate those guys and take them outside, so the guys kept fighting, and moving towards were we were sitting, and it got to the point that Karen and 3 Russian girls, got stuck in a corner and couldn't get away. Karen was in front of the 3 Russian girls, the guy that was being punched (let's mark him as “A”) was close to the girls and the guy that was punching (let's mark him as “B”) was punching “A” and also throwing him tables and chairs. The girls were screaming, “STOP! STOP!”, but Mr.B nothing, kept on throwing, and unfortunately for Karen she also got smacked with the chair, on the arm and legs.... Then another guy, let's call him Mister Golden Teeth, opened Karen's handbag probably trying to find her wallet to steal but unlucky for him Karen only had her boots and umbrella inside the handbag (the important stuff, keys, money, and documents, were with Karen in another small purse) Karen ran towards Mister Golden Teeth direction, screaming “LEAVE MY BAG!” and took her handbag of his hands, and he didn't fought about it, just ran away. At the same time all of them ran, leaving behind a crashed Kebab shop, with a guy bleeding from his mouth, and a bruised girl. The 4 girls immediately left the place and a bruised in pain Karen began to cry....
The girls went home, Karen undressed herself to see the state of her body and she had a swollen left arm, and bruises on both legs. She put ice on her arm so that the swelling didn't get worse. On the next morning Karen had “black bruises” on her body, you can see on the pictures below. Also you can see a drawing of the Kebab place. Conclusion....Karen is never going to a Kebab shop, specially at night, specially that one close to Bodega.

A pseudo-hero for a couple of minutes


 
Sunday, 28 of March, my friends and I decided to go out to a park and have a picnic. So since we need it "picnic food" we went shopping at our local ASDA :P
When we were almost finished, I bumped into a little Asian girl, and I said "OH I'm sorry.", and I notice that the girl was sad, and I thought that I had hurt her in someway...
- OH, did I hurt you?!?!
- I lost my mommy... - said the little girl... I kinda panicked, then a man came and started talking, and I thought for a moment that he was her father, but he was saying...
- Take the little girl to a employee.
Luckily a Asda employee was right there next to us and by this time he noticed also that the little girl was lost. So I asked the girl's name, she answered crying, Natasha it was, and I told her mine. So the Asda employee told me to follow him and take the girl with me, so I grabbed her hand,and the Asda employee told someone on his walky-talky about the little girl, I tried to calm the girl, saying that everything was going to be alright, that we were going to find her mommy. As we were approaching the Costumer Service place, her father appeared "NATASHA!" he said, he looked really P.O., poor girl just ran into her father's arms crying. So I went to meet up with my friends, and heard the Asda guy saying that it was the 3rd that this has happen in a week....
If I hadn't bumped into the little girl, I would probably not notice her, because my friends didn't and in a way , here in the U.K. we are used to seeing little kids, in one part of a place and the parent on the other, and the parent don't look that much concerned about it... which is horrible in my opinion.
One word.... pedophiles.... I'm just saying.

Desperately in need of my Spring Break...

 
Yeah that's it, I need a big fat break.... Lots of stuff going on, and all at once. Like that saying in Portuguese "Quando uma coisa vai abaixo, vai tudo abaixo" it's basically, "When one thing falls, everything else falls", and it's not little things, it's actually big shiz -_-
I wanna sleeeeeep 'till late hours. I'm Le Tired. But then again if I do that, the day has passed away, and time really flies fast in this country (U.K.). One of the craziest, weirdest things I had to get use to it was the fact that in winter, when other people say to you that at 4:30pm is basically night, it is TRUE. And by 5pm is completely night, I'm not joking. So imagine that you wake up late lets say 1pm, before you know it's 4:50 and it's night... but technically is still "day" get it?
Most people are going home for Spring Break, I'm staying here.... big lack of money. And a lot of studying to do -_-
Oh well one of many thing I have to get use to.
I'm off to bed guys....

At Casablanca

After my classes today (16-3-2010) I went to friends Zuzana's and Maria's house, a.k.a. La Casablanca :P.
First I dyed Zuzana's hair blond ^_^ and then I became a cleaning freak >.< I helped Zuzana clean her W.C. and Kitchen, 'cause she's having her sister plus a friend over. Then I had a snack and did by daily English homework of writing a resume of a News per day. So far is going well, because I'm writing about things that I like, such as MUUSSIICCC, it's always better then writing about, bombs, politicians and shiz, those things are depressing -_-
And now I'm in bed with Zuz, she's booking her flying tickets to Slovakia for the Easter holidays :P
Mutxos fannós no?

Woke up, didn't felt like getting out of bed like always on a Monday morning, but since I can't miss more classes, I got up, did my stuff and went to Uni. Once I got there, apparently it was video session today, but the VCR wasn't working, ssooooo 5 minutes later, class dismissed huurraayy. So I came back home, since I have a 4 hour gap and thank God I only live 10 minutes away from Uni by foot :P

Chuva... com Sweeney Todd

 
Ehpah hoje choveu por aqui (Nottingham)..... Sei que em Portugal teve a chover, e o que o povo já não podia com tanta chuva, agora mandarem a chuva cá pa cima é que não -_- já me basta o frio.
Esta noite resolvi rever um dos meus filmes favoritos "Sweeney Todd", e relembrei-me de algo que não gostei do filme, o sangue, yes the bloody blood. WTF, mas que sangue mais falso é aquele? Ou será que existe uma razão para tal? Por favor se alguém souber que me diga, que aquilo é o sangue mais FAKE and GAY que eu já alguma vez vira.... é tudo.... vou mazé dormir que mais logo tenho um dia cheio...
