... I watched an old American submarine movie on television. The creaking plot had the captain and first officer constantly at each other's throat. The submarine was a fossil, and one guy had claustrophobia. But all didn't stop everything from working out well in the end. It was an everything-works-out-in-the-end-so-maybe-war's-not-so-bad-after-all sort of film. One of these days they'll making a film where the whole human race gets wiped out in a nuclear war, but everything works out in the end. I switched off the television, climbed into bed, and was asleep in ten seconds.

Por cá, saudades de leituras em fins de tarde de Outono, de idas ao cinema ao início da noite, de se estar com pessoas agradáveis em espaços verdes e não só. Uma saudade de coisas tão banais que são um ponto de equilíbrio na vida que levo. Além de tudo isto, sinto também falta de alguém especial que para já se ausenta.

No I don't want love you, / `Cos I know how you are, / That`s why I`ve been staying away from you, / That why I ever call you, Huummm, I know that you could possess my body, / And I know you could make me scrawl / I know you`d have me shaken, I know you have me climbing the wall / That`s why I don`t wanna` love you. `Cos I know how you are / Sure you say you`re right on and your righteous / But with me, I know you`d be right off / `Cos you know I could possess your body too, don't you / I know you could make me crawl, / And just as hard as I fall for you boy, Well you know you would fall for me harder / That`s why I don`t want to love you. `Cos I know what you would do to my heart / You scourge just like a hot iron, / Leave me burning all alone in the dark, / `Cos I know that you would make me suffer / I know you would drive me mad / You would take me in a circle / And when it gather you, I know you`d disappear / That`s why ain't gonna' love you. `Cos I know you like to be in charge, / And with me, you know you can`t control me, don't you / `Cos you know I make you drop your god / I have you eating your ego / I`d make it pocket your pride, / And just as hard as I`ve been loving you, boy, / Well you know you`d be loving me harder / That`s why don't wanna love you. That`s why I don`t wanna love you. No I don`t want to love you [X7] Betty Davis - Anti Love Song
Durante estes dias de férias que tive para relaxar e estar na companhia certa, as primeiras a sério em muito tempo (sem stresses, correrias, dormidas em tendas e todas essas coisas aborrecidas que nos deixam completamente exaustos em tempo de descanso), tive a oportunidade de me rever e chegar à conclusão que ando insatisfeito. Após ponderar com cuidado, decidi que é a altura certa para voltar a estudar e ir tomando outros rumos.
