(Some)Thoughts(on things I really love and what happens in my life that I judge relevant to post )

Dream Hunters, Luxuria, Hunter, Gula, Brief Lives and The Outfit.

2012-01-26T16:24:00.006-02:00

Last week, I went to a new (quite not so new) at least was new to me bookstore. It´s called Cultura, like you can see in the picture below. I ordered a book, Sandman: The Dream Hunters and they had the book, luck me. I went there and I have to say it wasn't an easy trip. It´s a little far from my home so I took the subway and then a bus to go. When I arrived, I was mesmerized by the amount of books they have there. I believe 20.000 give or take.I have to say the comic book section, TPbs and Hcsis one of the biggest I've ever seen. I wish I had a lot of money to spend but I spent a good amount as well. After all, not only I found what I was looking for but...

... I also bought Casanova: Luxuria and Gula, Sandman Vol7: brief Lives, not to mention...

... The two volumes of Richard Stark: Parker, The Hunter and The Outfit.

Sunny Day.

2011-11-28T12:21:00.002-02:00

In homage to this horrible raining day, some sunny photos I took last week,

Pretty much what is coming for Summer.

Superman Vs Muhammad Ali.

2011-10-03T17:06:00.003-03:00

Today, after some months waiting I finally got my Superman VS Mohammad Ali Deluxe Edition. I read that story when I was very young, back when I started reading comics. This one is new and like the name says, deluxe. I just can´t wait to read it again. It´s what I´ll go as soon as I get home.

Sometimes is hard to talk with lobotomized people.

2011-08-29T16:59:00.002-03:00

After lunch, I went back and I was only me, a woman, who sometimes do some work for us arrived just in time, to spoil my day!

She is very boring, those who when start talking, doesn´t end soon you being so pissed and start a fight.

She started asking how I was, not so bad, I answered I was ok, nothing new and stuff but for her, it´s the click to start her drill, endless talking. She asked me if I watched Green Lantern, I said I did but the movie was lame and boring...Why I did that? She stared trying to convince me I was wrong, the movie (even she doesn´t know a thing about Green lantern) was entertaining, full of action and stuff, maybe I watched a different movie. I said (which I am sure I am not wrong) the movie was boring, slow pace rhythm, the actor, Ryan Reynolds so dull, not to mention he made Green Lantern looks like a retarded. It´s what I think about the movie, sorry. It was what she wanted to re-start her crusade to make me change my mind, pointless. After some bi time later and so my patience, she changed the subject, talking about a rail accident that happened here in Rio. I was aware of that but not that aware, that was when the party really started. When I realised, we were fight about how Brazil handles its people and about this stupid Olympic Games and World Cup. I was about to lose my mind, when I decided to leave my office and go home, after almost an hour of terror.

I just hate to talk with people who doesn´t respect other´s opinions. Maybe I am not right, maybe I am but like I respect others, them have to respect mine. If you can´t do that, why are you gonna spend a big amount of time talking to others?

At least my afternoom wasn´t that bad, I bought some rare comics and have some fun with an adorable girl. Thank you my lobotomized friend for that and next time she comes, I will close the door and call the exorcist.

This Week.

2011-08-29T12:01:00.003-03:00

This week is going to be great! On Thursday, I will go to biannual book fair and only the trip to arrive there is like an event itself. It´s pretty far from where I live and work so, I will not go to work... don´t tell my boss.

If you want to take a sneak peek, check this old post about it:

http://cpahl2000.blogspot.com/2009/09/biannual-book-fair.html

Don´t worry, I will post abut it later this week, after I go. I just love to go there, it´s quite an experience!

Action! Figures.

2011-08-18T10:34:00.004-03:00

This Monday I bought two new additions to my collection. Marvel Select Captain America (Buck) and Spider Woman. I didn't have both and were pretty cheap, well, they were.

This is Buck, at least he is still alive in my collection, different from the comic world, which he died, trying to save the World from Sin, Red Skull´s daughter.

This is Spider Woman.

Now both are in their place in my shelves.

This is my happy face after I got them.

Just Like The Good Old Days!

2011-07-30T22:40:00.002-03:00

Today I went to watch Captain America with my mom and before that, we went to a small comic book fair, after a while a good but small one was here in Rio. I missed the old days when we used to go to lots of those fairs, It was like religious, not to mention stores to hunt down comics for my collection. I still remember those days, I always went back home full of comics, I just loved that and also miss it. Sad here in Rio doesn´t have it very often. I ended up buying some good and rare comics, specially that big captain Britain TPB, from marvel U.K. Also The Kents TPB and some Secret Origins issues and In The Shadow of Edgar Allan Poe HC from Vertigo.

By the way, Captain America was FANTASTiC!!!! Actually was a very nice movie telling captain America´s origin, respecting some of the comics elements and also adding some new things from the movie mythology. Also the scenes after the credits... Awesome!! That´s why Marvel´s movies are unique events and I can´t wait to watch The Avengers next year.

Funny and unusual

2011-07-27T23:21:00.002-03:00

Today I had some time off after lunch so I decided to go to a bookstore. It´s a type of flee market, a two floor store full of old books and magazines. Of course I went straight to the comic book section.

I already went there, several times but the reason I don´t go there often is it´s very dirt, all the shelves and comics are dust and disorganized. You need patience and hours to go deep and dig all shelves if you want to find anything you want and sometimes, you´ll not succeed.

Actually, I wasn´t looking for any specific comic, I just went to kill some time off but I found an old Prisoner limited series I didn´t read, 4 part mini-series. I also find some interesting stuff I will go get them in another opportunity but what really caught my attention was the cat I saw there, yeah a cat.

I knew that grey cat for a long time, he is a type of mascot of the place. He is a piece or work. he sleeps on the shelves, just like he is taking care of the comics. Interesting is when you ask him to move to another spot and he goes. He is really nice but very away, he looks to you, let you touch him and play but after a while. he moves, lays down and goes to his sleeping.

Sometimes, those small and amusing things really make our day, even for a little while, like this funny cat, definitively his way put a smile on my face.

Sad I forgot to take a picture but next time I go there, I will take one.

Bored (again)

2011-05-27T12:02:00.002-03:00

I am kind of bored today, actually this whole week I a´ve been feeling that way. Nothing really bad happened to click on this feeling but it happened. In fact, a bad incident happened, some accounting problems really made me down, also boredom really affects me

I am sure after watching The Hangover 2 (I will scape from work later to watch it) will, is going to make me feel much, much better.

Until them, lunch and some more boring stuff is waiting for me. Ah! Hope my new comics arrive today.

Thor.

2011-05-01T16:21:00.004-03:00

Yesterday, I watched Thor and what I can say, any doubts in my mind, it was a excellent movie.

I read toms of Thor adventures in comics but I never considered myself a big fan of Thor. There are amazing stories and runs, Stan Lee and Jack Kirby, Roy Thomas and John Buscema, Walter Simonson, Tom de Falco and Rom Frenz although after the latter I mentioned, I stopped reading his adventures, only his Avengers´s part, just that.

When J. Michael Straczynski too over, with his visionary and fresh vision of Thor, I became a fan again and since Thor #1 (once again) i've been reading Thor.

Thor movie really is what brought me back to the character in comic format, freshpoint but without the classic aspects of the character.

I had no idea Straczynski wrote the story, I have to say was amazing. He and the other writers really knew the game. They didn´t used a version of thor, instead, they mixed a variety of elements from the classic stories. Lee and Kirby´s run was there, Simonson´s Thor was there too, I just loved they didn´t used Dr. Donald Blake´s persona, really was a fantastic thng because it didn´t confused the non fans, and i liked too, even though I thnk Blake´s return to Thor´s mythology was another great things from Straczyinski´s mind and run, also, most of what he did was there, pleasing a big fan of his run myself.

The other characters were excellent played by their actors, Antony Hopkins´Odin was excellent, he portrayed all might father classy, like always, Tom Hiddleston as Loki was amazing! It was the real Prince of Lies in movie scream. Bravo, he was one of the best part of the movie, his moves, expressions, deceives and everything, Kat Dennings always cute and beautiful, Stellan Skarsgard was great as well. The Warriors Three were there too. I like them and they were great too.

Lady Sif by Jamie Alexander was so beautiful, she played her in an extraordinary way. She is now one of my movie crushes after that movie. I think the cast really got right in every choice for this movie.

Natalie Portman as Jane Foster and Chris Hemsworth as Thor had the perfect chemistry together. His Thor was flawless, from Thor´s fall to his return to grace, he knew the game and Portman, as (different from comics, which Foster was first a nurse and later a MD) movie´s Jane Foster was a scientist, really was the hook to make the movie relevant and perfect.

I loved Clint Barton(Hawkeye) appearance , made me want the day to watch The Avengers´movie, I just can´t wait for that.

The special effects were the ticket. The colors, locations, Asgard was huge, shinning and so living, like a real place not that fantastic making believe comics and mythology home of Nordic Gods.

If you have second thoughts in watching Thor, take this humble entry review as an invitation to watch Thor. From a die hard comics fan to others and non fans, it´s a movie you don´t need to read any Thor comics to have a great time in the cinema, go watch, you´ll not regret.

I´m back (again)

2011-04-25T15:20:00.002-03:00

After some time off , I returned to this old and reliable blog. In fact I kind of put behind what I like the most, writing. I totally lost my thing, I realized I had nothing new to tell, which was my mistake because the real reason, what make any blog alive is to write on it, even if it´s an ordinary and senseless (not so quite) stuff.

I felt I was voiceless and spending some type on my other blog, Life or Something http://cpahl2000.tumblr.com I saw I need some space to write and I still have lots to write, even if what I write will not save the world or cure ant disease.

I set a day, in every week to post anything here, Monday will be the prime day to do it, when it´s not possible, any other day but I will write weekly I will try.

If you want, check my tumblr blog and here too, I also change the blog´s title, just a little. It will continue to be Thoughts but with something else.

Hope can be relevant and be a blogger (kind of lol! )

The Cape,

2011-03-04T22:21:00.006-03:00

I just love The Cape! I stated watching because of the theme, super hero adventures and after 5 episodes I have to say, it´s one of the best TV series out there.

The series, set in fictional Palm City, CA, follows Vince Faraday, an honest detective who decides to leave the police force after he witnesses the murder of a new police chief by a mysterious individual known as "Chess". Faraday accepts an offer to work for a private security firm named ARK, owned and operated by billionaire entrepreneur Peter Fleming. ARK is petitioning Palm City to privatize the police and public safety operations.

An e-mail from an investigative blogger known only as "Orwell" leads Faraday and his partner, Marty Voyt, to a cargo train owned by Fleming's firm. They discover the train is smuggling implosiveWMDs inside children toys. Unfortunately, Voyt set up Faraday and delivers him to "Chess", who is Fleming the CEO of ARK. Fleming frames Faraday for the police chief's murder and sends his security team after Faraday (televised by News channels) ending with a tanker explosion.

The entire city (including Faraday's family) now believes Faraday is "Chess" and has perished in the explosion. Faraday is abducted, but then becomes accepted, by "The Carnival of Crime", a traveling circus turned bank robbery ring. Their ring leader, Max Malini, trains Faraday to use a special black cape for defense against his intended foes. Max convinces Faraday to not reveal his identity, as this would endanger his wife and son. He then decides to fight Palm City's corruption and clear his name by adopting the visage of his son's favorite comic book hero, The Cape.

Max Faraday The Cape is played by David Lyons, the aazing Summer Glau plays Jamie fleming /Orwel, an investigative blogger who wages war on the crime and corruption in Palm City. She becomes Vince's ally and helps him even though she is trying to keep her life and her reasons a secret. James Fraim is Peter Fleming / Chess – the billionaire founder/CEO of Ark Industries and the Cape's nemesis. He is a criminal mastermind and serial killer and is responsible for framing Vince for the murders. When appearing as his alter ego, Chess, Fleming's pupils appear as chess pieces, specifically a knight and a rook; it is revealed in the Season 1 finale that this change is made with contacts. He has an obsession with the game of chess, as he sees everything around him as merely a game, often using chess terminology in his speech. In "Scales", Fleming reveals he is a mechanical engeneer. It has been strongly implied that Fleming has multiple personality dissorder, as he has had conversations with his Chess persona - who urges him to kill everyone and .keith David as Max Malini – the ringleader of a gang of circus-performers-turned-bank-robbers known as "The Carnival of Crime". He mentors Vince after saving him and trains him to become the Cape. Despite being a criminal, he shows a strong knowledge of right from wrong, and abhors the use of killing, operating on what would appear to be a strong moral code.

The series has everything, action, intrigue, suspense, a real super hero comic in a TV series. Sad to not know if it will continue, another season is not sure to happen but if it only have only this season,I am sure I will always remember this series as one of the best I´ve followed and if you love The Cape, let´s make this extraordinary series continue.

Cruel Summer!

2011-02-07T15:21:00.002-02:00

Last Friday, I decided to break free from my regular activities and I escaped to take a walk on the beach. It was one of the hottest days in Rio´s Summer, which is difficult, real difficult to not name a hottest day during the Carioca´s Summer. I will not write or try to describe how beautiful and was the day so I posted some photos I took so, enjoy and let yourself travel your mind to the beautiful Ipanema´s beach. have fun!

A New Beginning Of My Old Collector´s Life.

2011-01-20T16:46:00.004-02:00

Two week ago, I started a new level in my collector´s life, I changed where I used to buy my comic books. Since 1991, I bought my comics in the same store/service but after almost two years of problems and bad quality service, they decided to stop the service of importing comics.

It is notorious I hate changes but I had to do if I wanted to continue to buy and read my comics, I have to say it was for the best. A good friend started importing the comics and now he is the store, if I can call this way. I felt a little nostalgic, after all I bought my comics in the same way but this new is totally different and much, much cheaper than the previous one.

These comics I received represented the November´s comics, was a huge amount but now it´s the way that has to be, weekly and in fact, I received another box yesterday and another one arrived and next Tuesday will be in my home. I am pretty happy, although I still got a big number of back issues but my friend found a place and we already ordered some, to complete this hole in my collection.

You can see some here, Superior, Sweet Tooth, Buffy, Action Comics and the box.

More of them.

Now you can see Superboy #1, Thor, Unwritten. Bellow you have zatanna, Superman, Detective Comics Gotham City Sirens, Amazing Spider-Man and Batman Inc.

I am very happy I can continue to collect and buy my comics and the most important, read them, was a dark time , the uncertainty of continue or not was really tough but now I am happy. I know it´s totally pointless but I love reading comics, since I was 6 I´ve been reading them and I just can´t stop doing it. I know, I am just a big kid

Christmas!!!

2010-12-21T18:19:00.003-02:00

So far, Christmas has been awesome! I got my Absolute All Star Superman editon and a copy of Grant Morrisson: Talking with Gods DVD, which I was dying to get in my hands and I watched last night.My dearest Sandra gave to me. I am not a Christmas type of guy but this year so far, it´s been fantastic!

Finally!

2010-12-19T23:37:00.002-02:00

Today I finally made this blog´s background the way I always wanted, my onw, not just an already created or someone else´s design, my very own. I found the perfect image that ilustrated what my blog really is. I am pretty happy, it took me a while but I managed it extremelly well.

Well done Claudio, you are a real designer. lol!

I have now do do a title image for my blog, half way throught it.

You Can Be Old But You Also Can Kick Some Ass And Red Shows That.

2010-11-27T21:03:00.005-02:00

Today was good day. I went to the movies with a friend and we watched Red. It´s a fine movie. Based on a Graphic Novel by Warren Ellis and Cully Hamner. It´s totally different from the comics, well, pretty much different. The main character was there but the rest, was a little different but great.

We just love it, even it was based on a comics ( I don´t like those movies based on comics, they change everything about it) and it´s a entretainment from the beggining to the end.

Frank Moses , a former black-ops CIA agent, is now living a quiet life in retirement. However, he begins to feel lonely and often chats on the phone with Sarah , a customer service agent working for Frank's pension office in Kansas City.

His life is disrupted when a hit squad raids his house in the middle of the night. Frank kills the assassins and, knowing they would have tapped his phone, goes to Kansas City to protect Sarah. She becomes Frank's reluctant companion while he tries to find out who is trying to kill him, and track down his old black ops team for help. Meanwhile, CIA agent William Cooper is assigned to hunt and kill Frank

John Mankovich is fantastic! Marvin Boogs , his character doesn´t exist on the comics but here, he makes it one of the best part of the movie. He is a extraordinary actor and this shows why. Mary-Louise Parker as Sarah is another gen of the movie. She isn´t one of my favourite actresses but here she is perfect, not to mention she was the best choice for the part and she and Willis fitted together perfectly.

Morgan Freeman, what can I say about him... just perfect! Hellen Mirren too. She is the best actresses of all time and playing Victoria, an international professional hit-woman. When she appeared, I got crazy! lol!

Red is an etraordinary and well made movie. if you read the story and don´t want to watch because it´s a bit different, change your mind and watch it, you´ll love the movie. If you didn´t read the story but fear it´s another comic-based movie, you are wrong! It´s one of 2010´s best action movie . After all, it´s doesn´t matter if you are retired or if you are old, Red shows elderly can kick some butts too and with style!

Darn It!!!

2010-11-18T10:13:00.002-02:00

This mid November has been a little unfair, specially to me. After I had a huge hindrance in my life, in regards to something I really love, I am kind of trapped in uncertainties. I know there is a way out to solve this bad thing but at what cost? I really don´t know how will be from January on, again, uncertainties.

Anyway, at least I got a way out.

Happy Birthday Janina!

2010-10-24T12:30:00.004-02:00

Hi fanpire sister! I promised you a big party and here it is. I also brought some friends, check them out!!!!!

I hope you like your party dear! Well, It´s a little present for someone so sweet, so special and a friend I have the honour to meet on twitter and after that we became god friends and fanpire brother and sister. You are a very special person Janina, that´s why I wish you a fantastic day, full of great things, happiness, joy, lots and lots of presents. Also you have your friends, family and everybody you love around you, making this day the most special of all, after all we have a day in the year that we can say it´s ours and this day it´s your day.

Once again, happy birthday!!! I wish you all the best and I am so happy I have such adorable friend like you and don´t forget, eat lots of cakes and save one for me!!!

Kisses. xxx

Claudio.

Some Great Fidings.

2010-10-22T18:47:00.003-02:00

This week was pretty nice to me. I found some interesting items to my collection, I always get lucky and find interesting and cool things, I am lucky indeed.

This is the first one, a Reprinting Superman book, collection stories from the 30´s through the 70´s. It was published by Bonanza books in 1971. Pretty rare and hard to find, a real treasure.

It collects the first Superman appearance, Action Comics #1, not to mention other gems from Superman´s library. Some pages are colorful and other in black &white, which makes the book special and one of kind. Also, a large collection of covers and other stuff, as a big Superman fan, I love I found it and I can add to my collection.

This is the second thing, finally my Ladyhawke CD came, a special edition with 5 bonus tracks including acoustic versions of My delirium, Paris is Burning and others.I had to wait almost a month to get it but worth every minute. lol

I also got Season 6 and 7 of Buffy, The vampire Slayer. I didn´t have those, here in Brazil both weren´t release and I found both for so cheap, the price of one and both are imported and in fantastic condition. I didn´t believe when I saw both them and the price. Now they are mine. Sorry, I didn´t posted the photo but you can see underneath,all items together.

I have to say, was a hell of week and I loved it not only because of those findings, but now, to close the week, a great night out. Se you later. Ah! This Sunday, I will read the whole book and watch some episodes.

Funny.

2010-10-05T18:40:00.002-03:00

I just stopped by to write some words, after all, new month and some new posts. Nothing new happened in fact, this new month brought (so far) some good things. I can buy my comics, I´m going this Saturday to My friend Dani Calazans´ show, in Leblon and I have plans to take photos, tape some songs too and post, that´s why I bought a new memory card for both camera and cellphone, more updates next week.

I am also looking forward to buying my Ladhawke´s CD, it´s taking more to receive it than I imagined but I am sure this week is the deadline (I hope).

Ah! I also started reading a Manga named Elfe Lied, I am not a big Manga fan or reader but I decided to give it a chance, let´s see if it is worth.

Dependable.

2010-09-23T16:56:00.002-03:00

I am dependable of computer, not only in my work but in private life as well. Right now, I have a free time and I went to Facebook and there is some technical issue so I can´t play my (stupid) games and I kind of feeling frustrated, I also have so problems while I was doing some important work today, our PC had some "technical" issue as well and I had to do the work by hand but I can´t play the games by hand... not possible.

The only think I can do is wait, do other things like twitter and tumblr, also checking my e-mails, waiting for Facebook return to his technical issues. My luck is later, I have other important things to do so, it´s my time to be away from Facebook. My own technical issues.

I Have to Write!

2010-09-23T00:28:00.002-03:00

I really do, I have to write more. Since I stopped, for some stupid reasons, I feel that urge to write but sometimes, I get lazy or I have nothing to write so, I procrastinate it. I have to return to my old writing routine, I really started it doing my #FF comics but this week, I feel bad I (again) couldn´t finish it, I want to do that so much, I want it to be so organized, so fancy that I get bored and don´t finish it but next week, will be done.

I also need some or at least one ( for a start) novel be published, I really need it... so bad.

Ladyhawke.

2010-09-10T22:50:00.004-03:00

Recently, I heard one song, on the radio but the station didn´t and that female voice and lyrics just got stuck in my mind and I had to looking for who she was.

I totally by chance discovered the name of the song "My Delirium" and the artist Ladyhawke. Her real name is Phillipa Brown, a New Zealand singer, and multi-instrumentalist . I just fell in love with her music and I became a fan, not hard because of her style and strong lyrics which gather me into her sound.

I watched some of her videos and performances on youtube and I like, specially because she is very powerful on stage, she has a strong voice and her shows, at least what I could she on video demonstrated that.
You can see this photo what I saw, I wish one day I can see her live, maybe she can go to Brazil or I can go, when I go to UK, she might performance there by that time.

Today, I ordered her album, here, when something is too cool you ca´t find, specially albums but no problem, in two weeks, I will receive my copy her her debut album... I can´t wait to upload her songs on my cellphone and MP4 player.

This is the video of " My Delirium", enjoy.

Claudio Pahl A.K.A @cpahl2000

August.

2010-08-30T19:25:00.002-03:00

Well, August is reaching its final days and I am glad, I really am. To be true this year was a pretty nice and strange month, some good moments and some others I am sure I will do everything yo forget it.

Interesting was that I achieved some good things, I bought some items to my collection I thought ´d never, I take a trip to São Paulo, I met someone pretty nice and I will start doing some things I really missed but for some stupid reason I just put aside and stop doing but I will start over, my #FF comics as well as my novels and that is really exciting me.

I also had some revelation, bad one about some stupidities I was doing and some people I really didn´t expected the worst but they reached that level. Now, I am ready to not be fooled or even tricked by anyone. Those "revelations" really hurt me, but I am strong and I am not dead yet, I am stronger than ever and no one will do that again, no one!

I also got something, a present from a adorable friend, someone I really love and admire, she is such I friend I can cont, someone I can talk about anything, I am not saying it because of the lovely present she gave me but everything she´s done to me, my lovely friend Sharon, which I have no words to say how much I love your present and how much you are special to me.

This is it, a new month is about to start and even with some obstacles, I will continue to be happy and confident because the worst is over and now, only the best is yet to come and come good things, come!

Finally, I am Going to Travel.

2010-08-11T16:47:00.003-03:00

Yeah, finally after a while I am going to travel. Last time I travelled was so fast and I spent most of the time at a friend´s place so, that doesn´t count but tomorrow will be pretty different.

I will spend a day in São Paulo. First, I will go to a book fair and after that I will seek some stores, looking for comics and action figures but I will also have fun and see the place. There I am going to see (again) a good friend and without my friend´s help, I will get totally lost there. I remember the first time I went to São Paulo, I thought I could be lost forever, I didn´t know the places and the subway wasn´tone of my finest experiences ever.

I am also finally meet a friend, which works where I order my comics and we´ve never seen each other, only by the phone and I will also get a free comic book, after all it is good to get presents and I need that comics, because it is # 0 of an important Superman event.

I can´t wait to meet the Japanese place called Libertade ( freedom) Also the Rock gallery and other places too, I am sure I will have a great time but spend 5 hours n a car, isn´t so pleasant but I will save money for my real trip, my UK trip and maybe US again.

Don´t worry, I will write about this trip and bring photos too so, see you later...

Good Bye Sweet Prince

2010-08-07T22:44:00.004-03:00

Last night, our cat Futuko passed away, he wasn´t sick or anything, he just died Maybe it was his time to say good bye and fly away from us, I don´t know, but he was with us, he died on his favorite spot his round cat bed, with his blanked and in my mom´s bedroom, his place to sleep . He was a nice cat, sometimes he was pretty crazy, full of habits and always doing something funny to make us laugh, specially when I used to make him walk on his front paws and he just pretended he lost balance and fell, like all his bones were broken or if he simply doesn´t have any bones.

I remember when I posted his photo on Facebook and everybody loved his blue eyes, his poses because he was a poser, like a friend said all the time when I showed his photos. He was something.

I will always remember him, his eating time, always hungry like a wolf, always wanted more to eat, his time sleeping or when he went out to date his girls. You will be missed Monsieur Futuko Ku, his full name or just like my mom called him, Tuko. Good Night sweet Prince, you will be missed but never forgotten.

A New, New Beginning.

2010-08-02T09:46:00.003-03:00

Last night, I was talking to a fiend and our jobs came to the chatting table ad we came to the bad conclusion, we both don´t have the jobs we dreamt of.

Back when I was a kid, I always thought I would be something creative, a artist, writer and in fact I am a writer, I haven´t had any of my novels published but I am a writer, an unpublished one but I am. She knows about that, after all I told about it several times but she hasn´t read any of my novels, it is something I don´t allow any one do it until I publish it.

My friend has the same problem, she wanted to do something different but like me, we need, we all need money so, we work where the money is. When I said that sentence, she laughed and suggested that I could write on this entry, which she will read later, when we meet during lunch.

Next week I will start over, after four years at the same place, a new one is my new, will be my new workplace. I wanted to be something different but so far I am gonna stick with that boring craft but I know it will not be for a long time, I will be a writer and I also will write about it, I know I will and it is only a matter of time until, I will continue to dream.

Night... Why it is so boring?

2010-07-27T22:24:00.000-03:00

Tonight, specially after a full busy day, I am feeling boring and depressed. I am waiting to talk to my lovely friend but I believe she is full of work, a big web design and that makes me bored, because I really wanted to talk to her , at least to make my night a little better. Maybe I should call her but I don´t want to bother her specially that she is full of work so I wave to wait for her to call me. This wedding program on TV isn´t helping me and I want to watch something nice to make me feel good, not adder. I miss my cell phone but until next week I have to live without it.

I have to wait a little longer to make my night less boring and I miss another sweetie friend, since last Saturday I haven´t talked to her and I can´t call her... what a night!

My Porn Shelf

2010-07-22T23:41:00.011-03:00

Don´t worry my friends, and don´t get confused b the tittle because it isn´t about porn, not at all, porn shelf is a term we give to comic books and action figures collection and here we will talk about my action figures collection. I´ve been collection comics and action figures for quite a while, more than twenty years so, I have a decent number of figures and comics but let´s talk about my comics in another occasion, today it is about action figures. These are just some I have, my current collection because I started when I was a kid and others are stored or lost, I still have lots of others like GI Joes, Star Wars but I still need space to display them but my super heroes action figures are my crowed gems so, let´s see them, shall we?

Here we have my Marvel Legends collection, ove of many I have and you can see Galactus´s figure, the big one in the back, my favourite and I love that one because I had to collect other figures to build the Galactus. You can see Colossus, Doctor Strange, Silver Surfer, Nightcrawler and others.

This is the last Marvel Legends series that was released in Brazil, after that one, no other was, just the small version which I didn´t buy any, not my style. Also my big Spider-Man figure, called Signatures series.She-Hulk is one of my favourites but we have Jean Grey from X-Men 3, Blob, Iron man from the movie and others.

Now this is X-Men Legends collection. We have here Gambit, Beast, Magneto, Wolverine and Rouge.Gambit and Wolverine are my favourite and Magneto I have another version, which is different, here he has a raging face. Ah, I still have the box. lol

Now my Superman collection. I have lots of Superman figures, his friends, foes and you also can see a Barbie Supergirl. I know, it is pretty girlie but I had to get that doll. We also have Perry White and Jimmy Olsen and Lex from Smallville, that one dressed all black.

From another angle, the left side of the Superman collection.We have Silver Age Lex Luthor, Bizarro, Superman Returns figures and my Superman and Lois Lane Silver Age box, on the left.

Clark, Lois and Lex fro Smallville and the rest of my figures. Also my animated series´box in the back.

That is all them so you all can see. I just love my Superman collection but I have more, you´ll see.

These are another Marvel Legends collection with first appearance Hulk, Weapon X Wolverine, Professor X, Giant Man Phoenix and others.

Here you can see The Thing and his trench coat, Captain America, Doctor Doom and others.

This angle you can see them better, I miss Marvel Lengends line it was the best Marvel´s figures ever

My Batman collection with some interesting figures like Nightwing, Azrael, Joker from the Batman: The Dark Night, I am not a big Batmn fan but batman is one of those characters you have to have his figures so, I got them. lol

Those are my lates figures, Batwoman, Powergirl, Shazam, Suerboy, Green Lantern, Animal Man back in the right and The Killing Joke Joker, on the right back. Booster Gold is there too.

Now Giant Size X-Men # 1 Collection. I never liked this one because Wolvderine and Cyclops are missing, they never made them for that collection and I never found two figures that could match. Even thought they are well made version, specially Storm, Nightcrawler and Colossus.

This are my mix of Justice League Unlimited and Super Power figures. I remember that Superman was the first ever Superman figure I had not to mention I love Green Lantern too. zatanna and Wonder Woman are fantastic and I love them all, no exception.

Here we have Some marvel characters like Alpha Flight, Captain Marvel, Luke Cage an others. I also have here the Secret War figures, in the back but the photo isn´t that good so you will not be able to see all.

More of those DC latest figures I bought. Powergirl is like the comics version and her big boobs.

I hope you all could enjoy a little of my collection. I know it is pretty silly and nerdish but i love them and I decided to share my love for them and my collection with you all. It´s a kind of labour of love because most of them were pretty hard to find but I could and I was lucky to find and I could be able to buy them all. I love them and I hope one day my kid can love them all too.

Aging.

2010-07-14T17:21:00.004-03:00

This is life and I am aging. Well, in a few weeks I will be a little older, one year older than now. Am I worried? Yes, a little but I can´t reverse it or even stop the process, not until I become a vampire, who knows Vampire Pam comes and bit me and turn me into a vampire and her sexual slave, hahahah! Seriously, I am a little worried about it, just a little.

Today, while I was in the subway, I thought about that, about my life and what is coming this new year of my life so , I decided to make a little list of things I will do this year, after my birthday. My top 5 things I want and I will do, maybe sounds a little stupid or even so pointless but I had nothing else to do during the ride so, here my list:

1- Publish my novel(s): Yeah, I hope now I can publish all or at least one of my novels. This time I m going to publish and become a author.

2- Travel to UK and USA: Well, I hope I can travel to UK first to meet some good friends I have there, both England and Scotland. I´ve been planing this but I am sure I will finally travel, I am feeling it.

3-Meet a nice girl: That´s something I really want to happen, to meet someone who loves me and wants to spend her time with me. Let´s see if this year I can finally meet my soulmate or at least a nice and beautiful girl.

4-Earn more money to do number 2: Well, without it, I believe will be totally difficult and impossible to travel .

5-Built my own studio: Yeah, I really designed my studio where I can write and store all my comics and books but again, I need that number 4 be fulfilled or will be impossible to do that too.

Let´s see if I can fulfill all or at least three items of this list or I will have to continue to pursuit it next year... NO!

Face Tags.

2010-07-01T08:50:00.004-03:00

Last night, in fact some hours ago, I had a pretty strange dream, I don´t dream very often, I never dream in fact, only when I am nervous, when I am going to do something special on the next day and from time to time, like last night.

Well, I was a in a big garden, and there were a party there, I had no idea who or what was the party for, but I decided to walk around, to see if I might find out or if I could see someone that I know.I start seeing some people but they didn´t have faces, just name tags in their face´s place. Pretty unusual and bizarre, I felt totally freaked and afraid because I couldn´t see their expressions, just names and no name was familiar to me.

More ahead, I saw two friends, Emma and Craig, well, I saw their names, their twitter names so I could see they were Emma and Craig. We talked for a while but for them, the fact that they didn´t have faces weren´t an issue in fact I believe they didn´t know about that and if they were seeing me like I was seeing them? I was too mesmerized to even ask that question, we continued to talk.

Suddenly, I was in a different place in that garden but now, alone, no one was there, near me or in the surrounded area and I continued wondering what was going on and out of sudden, I saw a little pond and I tried, to see myself through the pond´s reflexion and ... I just woke up. Well, trying to figure out what I just saw in my dream but I believe it will be an answer I will never have.

I am not an expert in dreams or even know what I might mean because they say all dreams is based or something, in our hidden sub-conscience but I will try to read on a book to see but I really don´t care, at least I woke up, which was a pretty good thing and also to have the chance to talk to Emma and Craig.

I hope next night I return to my regular non dreams routine or at least I dream of some gorgeous girl trying to marry me, would be great.

Farewell Moon Shadow.

2010-06-25T17:10:00.003-03:00

This is a tittle of the Moon Shadow original series, its sequel but my point isn´t that, I´m here to say good bye.

It´s been a while I try to keep up this blog with interesting things, relevant but I think, I´m sure I failed in that attempt. I had a good intention to do this as my vehicle to communication, a place t show my writing, my ideas and like the title says, thoughts but I failed, I´m sure I did. Not on purpose, maybe my lack of experience , I´m not good with Internet stuff and maybe I am not relevant enough to post relevant stuff.

My latest blogs were only praising some friends, trying to express my feelings and just that, which I can´t call them blog material, they were good, I showed my feelings, I made my friends good and happy but how about me? Today specially, I am not happy, I made a mistake, I know I did and I was stupid enough to let my heart spoke, not good thing to be done and I break it, I deserved that and maybe it is something good, in many aspects it will make me strong and will prevent me from doing another stupidity like that.

One of those things is to see that I can´t continue doing this blog. Maybe one day, tomorrow, next week, next month or year but it is time to leave, time to close this place I need this Sabbatical, I really do and it is time . I am good with it, it´s just a see you later, I´ll return, maybe with a new blog or with this one, updated and with a new design. I will same what I wrote after all it was good, I loved the experience and everything that was written, it was sincere and genuine. True display of love, even thought pointless ones.

Good bye old Thoughts, I had fun and maybe tomorrow I change my mind, I still got some FollowFriday comics to write.

Farewell .

Happy Birthday Kathy!

2010-06-19T20:00:00.007-03:00

Well, today is my BFF ´s birthday! I met Kathy some time ago, back when I still was going to Law and Order:CI forum which I have plans to return to post, I still love the series but it´s not about that, it is about Kathy.

Since my first contact with Kathy, we became good friends, but after some short time, indeed was sort, we became good friends and I knew she wasn´t just another forum buddy, she became a fantastic friend, a true BFF.

Some time passed since our first chat and I can say we are still BFF, which sometimes can be difficult to manage in that crazy Internet world but we pretty can continue to talk and be great friend. She helped me several times and still help, I can´t believe how she was able to put up with me sometimes but she was, she always was there for me, and still is, even when I look totally hopeless, she can find time to help me, to say some courageous words and open my eyes. I helped her too, not as much as she helped me because she is too wise but I helped her, I was there fr her or when it was just a post or a hello, she is fantastic!

I still have the opportunity to meet her in reason but I will one day but it really doesn´t matter, she is so nice and accepted me just the way I am that is a bless, I´m blessed to have a friend like her, to have the pleasure to be part of her life but one day I will meet her, we´ll have a fantastic time, I will meet her fantastic family, Tony, her daughter and her boys, I believe will be amazing to see her family, a family she loves and cares about like a big mama she is. You did and do a fantastic job dear, they all are adorable.

Dear Kathy, I wish you happy birthday, a day full of joy happiness, funny moments and lots and lots of presents. I can´t be at you party but I´ll be with my happiness, my love and my joy, because since we met, you are more than just a friend, you are my BFF. Thanks for being my BFF Kathy, next year,I´ll be at your party.

One Second.

2010-05-08T12:00:00.003-03:00

One second is plaint of time to realize that something we said was wrong, even if it´s perfectly the truth. But It took me one second to see it.

When I showed you that, I saw that it was a mistake, not to show you but to write that. Indeed you are right, I´m special, if I wasn´t , I wouldn´t met you or even be your friend.

My intention was put those bad feelings out of my chest, out of my system and indeed they are totally out and I thank you for read that and for those fantastic words you said, helping me once again.

I hope, tomorrow I can re-read it and laugh of my crazy reaction, in fact my crazy initiative to write that horrible thing and I wish I wasn´t but in fact, it helped me a lot to see that I´m not horrible, I´m a fine and good person.

You asked me to not write but I did the opposite, don´t worry, I had to show how I was wrong and once again, you helped me. Next time, I´ll write another one, just for you sweetie pie, one which I´ll tell once again how much you are special and how much I love you and how much your friendship means and matters to me but I can say I´ll not have plaint of words to say it because I can´t express how you are fantastic.

See ya, miss ya and live ya sweetie pie. Tell Lassie I miss her.

Once Upon A Time

2010-05-06T11:18:00.006-03:00

Once upon a time, there was a very sad boy named Claudio. He lived in a far away land called Rio and after some sad moments in his life, the boy named Claudio decided to start playing a game, in fact, several games to clean his mind from those bad moments. He joined a site, a facebook site, where he could meet new people and play those games and done that, he started his journey into the exciting world of facebook and its games.

Everyday, the boy named Claudio entered there and played his games, like a type of religion, but one day, we found out he had to add more friends to his farm, so, he went to the game´s page and there were a variety of friends, asking to be part of any farm but the boy named Claudio, just saw one, a girl, which called his attention, he felt something... good about the girl and he decided to add her as friend and later neighbor. He thought it would be like the other neighbors, no contact but like he felt, it was different, totally different.

One day, the boy named Claudio decided to call his new friend for a chat and she accepted and since the first hi, he knew it was more than just a hi, he was sure it was more than just a hi and a little chat, a friendship has just begun.

The girl named Lindsay was so nice, so sweet, even though they never met before but was like an instantly connection, something that was meant to be, and from that day on, a friendship has been born. Almost everyday, the two of them talked, shared their happy moments,

also discovered things about each other, and of course, they shared his bad days and events as well. One thing that both has in common is, they always try to help each other, with a word, a gesture or with a big smile. The boy named Claudio was happy, so happy he could met what he´s been looking for, someone who was there for him, someone who cared about him, his sweetie pie friend.
The boy´s heart was alive again, after all, it needed only a special person, who could filled it with love and Lindsay was that person, everyday she treated the boy named Claudio well, and one day, they decided to talk on the phone too, which for the boy was a problem because his phone decided to not help and every since, he fights against it to make a call but those are so good that it´s worth, no matter how difficult to make but he knows she will answer and both will have a great time on the phone.

Not only he loves Sweetie pie, but he also love his other friend, Lassie. Lassie is so beautiful and everytime she listens to the boy´s voice, she feels happy, wages his tail and farts in the girl named Lindsay´s face, showing how much she loves her. The boy is very lucky, to have two amazing and extraordinary friends. He know that, no matter what he does, good or bad, he can relay on her, she will always be around for him, with a smile, a song or just a conversation. The boy named Claudio will visit the girl´s kingdom soon, he counts the hours for the trip and he knows, he´ll finally can see what he already know, her stunning beauty. The boy named Claudio is the happiest boy on Earth, you know why, because he has his sweetie pie on his side.

The End.

This is just a little way to tell how I met Lindsay and how, after that day i became her friend and how much fun I have with her. I adore you sweetie pie, you are fantastic and so sweet, extraordinary and fantastic. That´s why you live in my heart Lindsay and no matter the distance, difficulties, you will always be my sweetie pie friend.

Love ya, miss ya and see ya!!! Byyyyeeeee!

Once Again, I Almost Destroyed Something Good In My Life.

2010-05-06T00:35:00.006-03:00

Yesterday, once again, I almost destroyed something really important in my life but I have to be glad and thank her for being that friend she is and forgive me for that bad thing I did.

I was wrong, totally, specially after her efforts to save me, to put out that misery I was so overwhelmed and dominated but once again, I did the opposite, I let that misery affects and dominates me, like the fool I always am. My biggest mistake was to hear what she said and fear that she might not care about me, because I felt that, I really did, I could felt that on her voice, and once again, I fear, to lose what I care the most, what I appreciate the most , her friendship.

I faced so many losses in my life, not to mention that I also caused so many horrible things to others and I also killed so many friendships and that possibility, to not be able to see or talk to her affected me and I let sorrow took over me. After I helped my mom, I set and felt like I was fading away, like my soul was trying to leave my body and waited to call her.

But my luck smiled at me again, thanks to my horrible phone, which decided to be a good boy and works, I could be able to talk to her, to express my feelings, my fears and to once again, say sorry, which she is totally bored of listening it but she did, once again, she forgave me, not that what happened was something so bad but because I was sorry and afraid to lose her.

I cried, while I waited to call her, I really did, because I didn´t know what might happen, because I was a horrible person, I thought: If she never answers my calls again? If she never reads my twitters again? if she forgets me forever? All that rushed into my brain, like horses on a race I felt myself get tired, o f me, of being such horrible individual, for let others to control me, to dominate me and to hurt my adorable sweetie pie, which I could or think about the possibility to be apart from her, to not laugh with her, to listen to her special song, which makes me so happy and smile on the other side of the phone, not to mention, which I can´t forget, my other lovely friend Lassie, which I just knew she gets happy only from listen my voice, I love you Lassie, I really do my dear.

Well, I think I said enough or I´ll cry again, but I can´t help myself, I´m already crying while I´m writing this and I´m proud of expressing my feeling, to say I was wrong and I knew I was so, I can , at least, to say ... I promised I would not say so, I´ll keep my promise but you are aware that I regret that, you was, is and always will be right, no more mistakes, no more sorrows and from this moment one, I´ll be that person you met, that one you became friends and I wait you continue to be my fan, to check what I write and don´t be afraid, when I need help, say, help me, I know but I feared for our friendship, to once again, not be able to know your opinion about me, about my things and... I can´t do it, I have to stop for a while, sorry.

Well, I´m good, so, I love you sweetie pie, you is and always will be my best friend, confident and beloved because I´ve never expected to meet someone, a angel like you on Farmville so, thanks for being my friend and for allow me into your life.

See, ya, miss ya and love ya,

From a fool who adores you.

Last Night Was... Fantastic!

2010-04-21T14:10:00.007-03:00

Yeah, that little devil up here is the responsible for the amazing night of chatting I , we had last night. The Sweetie Pie Lindsay. You have no idea how much fun we had, not to mention how much we talked about, if I tell you, I´d be banned from here. hahaha! Ok, but I think we´ll go to hell after last night, specially the subjects we talked about. I´m laughing only thinking about it. It also caused her a belly ache, imagine how much she laughed. lol!

What!!!! Lindsay!!! It´s a finger???? hahahah!

Don´t fool yourselves looking at this angle´s face, she is the DEVIL! Yeah, she is, she drove me to the bad way, straight to hell. That´s why I call her Lady Lucifer. We are both going to hell but with her, and be able to chat with her there, I´ll go with opened arms. She is pretending she is a good girl, she isn´t , bad apple but I´l be honest, I like her just this way.

She, now she is sending me kisses, just to buy me off and not share her dirt secrets. I´ll think about it, only if you sing Bananas in Pajamas´theme, pleaseeeeeeee!!!!!!!!! I love when she does it. ;)

She the reason she is my best friend, because she makes me laugh, cry and every time we talk, we have something new to tell to each other, something funny or just laugh a lot. I just adore my sweetie pie Lindsay. I´ll be very sad when she returns to University and we will have to chat less, I don´t know what I will do. :(

Don´t worry, this won´t be the last of my entries about her. I´m preparing a new one, full of adventures and in a comic book style so, she will love ( I hope) , just like this and the previous one.

Love yea my sweetie pie and see you later. xxx

I Need To Write More.

2010-04-04T17:13:00.002-03:00

Today, after some weeks without writing a single line, I returned to my current novel, my sci fi political tale of a ... well, that´s enough, It´s still a little early to say more about, I´m joking, although I already wrote it, it´s the second and last draft, after I realized the end was proper from the whole story.

While I was writing it, I had the impression I was in the story, like an observer, a bystander observer, watching the whole action, like an invisible one, with a fantastic view of the story. It might sound strange but I´ve never felt like this before, not in any of my other novels, quite bizarre but It´s nothing but the truth.

I always felt like part of the story, most of times I put myself in the role of the main characters, I am the character(s), like my last novel, which I divided myself in two, I was Lucas and Cristina, at the same time, sharing all their feelings , emotions and actions but this time, I´m like the narrator, the fortunate expectant.

I have to write more, I´m feeling that novel will be one hit, my top of the top, my magnum opus. Let´s see if at least I got this and my others published, would be be quite a victory.

?

2010-03-26T10:42:00.002-03:00

Well, that´s what is a constant in my life these days, a question mark and you ask why? I´ll answer you.

Nothing seens to go right, everything I try to do ends up in a massive failure or an incomp´lete task, may it´s my fault, after all, iot´s my life although some of those involved others. still, my faul for making some of those people part of it, not to mention a... forget it!

I need to see new people, to meet new faces, I´m tired of the same routine, the same face I´ve been seeing for ages and I NEED a change, a total make over in my life but am I capable of doing it?

...To be continued.

Happy Birthday Craig!

2010-03-20T00:22:00.008-03:00

Last year, when I joined Twitter, I was lucky to my first follower became one of my closest and best friend, her name is Emma, better known as @beingnobody. A little after, someone named @thecraigmorris started following me, it was cool, another follower but I had no idea that name would become more than just a follower, Craig became my best friend.

I could say, for sure that was a fantastic thing in my life when I joined twitter because I made some amazing friends, a great group which my dearest Craig is part of. He and his partner in crime Emma, I can´t love one and not the other, they complete each other, like two in one, both Emma and Craig were and are so good to me, since day one, talking to me, helping me , putting up with some problems I had and leading me to the right direction, but it´s Craig´s day so, I´ll being sweet with him.lol! Sorry Emma.

I love Craig, I´m not shy to say that, he is fantastic and I could marry him in no time. LOL! I´m joking Emma, I like the blonde ones. lol! It´s a big joke but I love him, as the fantastic friend he is, the adorable person he is and for being so amiable, sweet and extraordinary to me. This year, I will finally meet him, Emma, Leanne, Billy, Laura and the rest of my Twitter Tribe, he named us this way, he is so clever. We´ll party every day, every night and I´m counting the hours to take the plain and go to London.

I´m crying while I´m writing this but it´s ok, I made this entry/present to homage him, it´s a big joke, like the old Follow Friday Comics I used to do and next week ( I hope) a new one will be done and the tradition will return so, I hope you like it, I hope Emma like too because I did the last one for her, so, don´t be jealous Craig, she loves you and I´ll go to your wedding and I´ll make the speech, please, let me do it. lol!

Happy Birthday Big C, Lord Morris, Mister Morris, Craig, all ways I call you but there is one I´ll call you for the rest of my life, my best friend.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CRAIG!!!

Baby Gaga

2010-03-10T07:00:00.009-03:00

Last week, on a Brazilian TV Show called "Qual é o seu talento", it´s the local version of "America´s got talent", was shown the performance of a little girl, the 8-year old Laura Montana ( What?)and became an instant hit, here and across the World ( as some says). I only watched that in the next day, when a friend showed me that and indeed the child has talent, she sung in English, a good one by the way and danced, of course she is just a kid but you know, TV audience loves those gifted kids and so the host and the jury and that mad me wonder: This children exposition/exploitation is really health for the children and for us?

I know without it, we didn´t have names such as Shirley Temple, Elizabeth Taylor, Judy Garland, Leonardo De Caprio the Olsen twins and many others but I think a young kid has to be one, without worries, without those endless hours of rehearsals, exposition to the masses, paparazzis and all what comes with fame.What this exposition might bring for this young girl in the future? I´m not this kid´s parents (thank God) and I really don´t care about it, at all, after all, it´s good for all parts, the TV station will gain audience with her performance so money in the pocket, the parents, will fulfill their dreams of being famous or at least have a famous kids so, money in the pocket and the kid, which I´m not sure if it´s the case, will have her dose of fame and spotlight so, money in the others´pocket.

Maybe, when Lady Gaga comes to Brazil, in May, she can meet her young version and who knows, take the kid to be part of her tour, to open her shows or even sing bad Romance, a duet, this is show business, if even Gaga is a hit, why not this kid, even imitates Gaga, can show her talent.

Words... Can Kill Sometimes.

2010-03-09T10:48:00.007-03:00

That´s true, they can but this time, one single word saved me and that word was ignorant.

I´m not ignorant, at all but the way a certain person, which I used to have some love for her said that, yesterday to be exactly, really destroyed me, how dreadful that word sounded, they way she wrote, willing to hurt me,waiting for me to read it but if it was her intention, it worked other way around, it set me free.

Strange how a person, who you treated like a person, with love, respect and in a cherish way likes to be treated different, how so? Well, that person likes, after all she is a pile of manure that I tried to treat like an orchid.

Better still, I can move one without any regret or sadness, she helped me realized how stupid I was, trying to gain her heart, to be notice, by a not worth individual, who only acted me up, treated me like someone, like her peels, which I am not. I´m guilt too, I forced a situation, I tried to make her love me, which I´m quite sure this word, doesn´t belong in her vocabulary.

Unlike me, which I know the meaning and how to use the word "love" properly, I´m so happy to see that person behind me, way behind me like that The Primitive song, I really accomplished something with this thing, to see who people is by it´s look, and to be prepared more, to see through people, their true colours so, I want to say only one thing to finish it for good...

FUCK YOU!!!!!

See, words can express feelings too.

Manga Fair.

2010-03-08T10:23:00.008-03:00

Last Sunday, yesterday to be true, I went to a Manga fair, I have to confess, I´m not a big Manga/Anime fan but I decided to go, after all, the trip was good and I was going to hunt a present to a nice friend, in fact, I only got two and the real present wasn´t possible to get but I will, it´s just a matter of time.

There was a huge line, I wasn´t expecting so many fans but they showed up, dressed as their favorite characters, even a girl dressed as Harry Potter was in line. I don´t know how she survived, after that huge heat and sunny day. My luck I brought my press card so, no line for me.

The place wasn´t that good but it was big so the fans go walk through there without any problem. The only problem was that red light. I felt I was in a strip joint or something, after I left, I had a huge headache, other fans were complaining too but besides that was good.

Now, the booths, where you could by your Manga, Anime or anything else you could imagine. I tried to fid my friend´s present, I only got 2 DVDs for her, the main present wasn´t possible. I was sad about it, after all, I want to give her that but that arse was charging it for $5.000,00 which I will get for less than $ 200,00. Ah! There was also video games so you could play but i wasn´t in a mood and those lines...

It was a good Sunday after all , I had some fun, went to a good event, even though I´m not a big manga/Anime fan but I had some fun, watching those fans being themselves, free from others to judge them, being fans. Maybe I´ll attempt to other events like this, at least, I´ll again, have a good time.

Don´t forget the photos, not good ones but you can see the event.

Kathy, Kathy, Kathy...Everywhere!

2010-02-28T23:30:00.005-03:00

What can I say? Kathy is eveyrwhere and I have to say it´s something really great!

I´m joking about that, I really love her, she is a amazing friend, since we first met, again I´ll say that, we became friends instantly. That´s great but I won´t say that agin, I´m kind of repetitive and It´s not what I want to write this time.

I´m feeling she is a little depressing, a little down, I know the feeling, I was like that for a little while and she needs a little incentive, a little booters to help her get through it and be herself again, be my BFF, my good and always happy and outgoing Kathy.

During my dark times, I know I acted up, I really bothered her with that thing still, unlike give her back or just give her back, she stood up for me, she helped me to see I was a jerk, I did everything to dstroy me but I´m saw that on time, and I coped with that problem and now I´m back on track again.

That´s why I´m writtibg this, to maker her fell better, to see my friend back, my happy Kathy, I love our chats, our talking, her virtual gifts and now her PM on Facebook. We need to use our traditional point, you know where, but this new way of comunication is amazing as well.

I know one day we´ll meet, I´ll go to your state to meet you, it´s just a matter of time, my big aroung the World trip will cost me a fortune but will be worth. Speacilly when I arrive and see my BFF, waiting for me, to finally see her gorgeous face and extraordinary personality.

What can I say, I love her, she is my BFF, my confident and my adorable friend so... I love you Kathy, never doubt that and next time, I hope I cxan write something better than this poor entry but I´m sure you´ll love it.

Kisses and Hugs my beloved.

Claude.

Brand New Day?

2010-02-02T10:36:00.005-02:00

Well, that only worked with Spider-Man, after he cut that deal with Mephisto and started over, free from his mistakes from the past, even thought he "deal" kind of backfired, after all, instead of moving on, he is what he always was, a "loser". I´m going to put the comic book analogy aside, after all, my point can have something in common but not that much.

I agree things is a little better, since last week but I feel, I´ve been feeling like I´m walking in circles, that I´ve been walking in circles, Have I? Unfortunately I am.

It´s pretty funny and even peculiar, when we (in my case I) want something so bad that we create a illusion, a fantasy that only we (I) can see it. Little by little I´ve been seeing it, day by day it´s been showing to me what I want, what I desire is just an illusion, pure and simple.

The difference between I want and I will have is huge, like miles and miles and no matter how much I walk through it, I´ll never get there, when I´m just about there, it goes fast and I lose touch.

Como eu queria poder saber se ela gosta de mim, mesmo ela dizendo que sim (mentira).

That´s the point, I will never get that illusion, always , like that the Primitives song: I almost touched you, always, always, always...

I Have A Vague Idea...

2010-01-31T21:26:00.003-02:00

Last week was a little confused, I had so many problems and misunderstandings that i really wanted to erase Thursday and Friday from the face of Earth.

My mom got sick and almost died and I think I lost a important person, I have that idea, after all, I lost contact and because of a stupid question I asked. I wish I cold have managed better that situation but i act out of fear, I might be wrong, I hope I´m wrong but I can´t talk to her and tomorrow, a fantastic and beautiful present I sent to her will arrive, she will get it and I really don´t know if she will accept or even will want any of my presents, I really don´t know and I fear that, she is a great friend and since, we´ve been without talking for almost three days and I only got one e-mail responding from her, indicating nothing.

I´m really sad and down, I can´t believe I´ll lose her, out chats and everything. I´m.. I´ve been trying to face that possibility, of not be able to talk to her but it´s so hard, so hurting that I can´t even be awake, and there is my mom, still sick and facing a disease.

I have to wait, tomorrow will be the day, after all, she will have to respond if the present arrived and I was, am so happy giving her that and now it, it´s my life, after all, I´m sorrow´s native son (Thanks Morrisey for the title).

Today will be long and painful night, and tomorrow too, the day will be like today, full of uncertainties and fear, I lost her, I´m quite sure and unlike my dubious thought tricks on me, she will never talk to me again.

Róisín Murphy.

2010-01-10T12:34:00.003-02:00

This Sunday, as usual, I had nothing better to do, after reforming my studio, not a reforming, just change and cleaning up, I ended up like always, nothing better to do so, another time for the 10,000,000 times I listened Róisín Murphy.

It´s been like a habit, since i discovered her more than a year ago, back when I had no problem and I wasn´t that down, waiting for someone who will never come anyway, I can´t help myself, It´s like automatic, her songs have a positive power over me, when I need energy I listen and I´m ready for another day.

I really want to see her live, I´ve never had the chance and I hope she comes to Brazil someday, or I can go to UK or wherever place she is playing. It´s a dream I want to make come true.

One again Róisín, thanks for making my day bearable and pleasant, after all, we don´t know each other but like your song says, my favorite song by the way, You know me better than I know myself, you know me the best.

I Hate Sundays!

2010-01-03T20:29:00.003-02:00

I HATE SUNDAYS! It´s notorious, I really do. Since early age I associate Sunday with bad and sick things, I have my reasons and sickness is one of the related things that make Sunday a bad day to me.

It´s also the worst day to watch TV. Yeah! Here we have those re-runs of the weak´s TV series and the traditional Program Silvio Santos ( Silvio Santos Show). Which I hate from the guts.

At least, Sunday is almost ending, only 4 hours to go but while I´m writing it, will kill some time .

Well, It´s okay, Sunday is necessary, to balance the World order and to permit workers to have a resting day but no matter, I hate Sunday and I will always hate. I believe I will, I´m not sure.

I´m always worried about a friend, which is making the day a little more difficult to digest or to endure but It´s okay, I think so.

New Year (Again?)

2009-12-28T11:39:00.002-02:00

Well, it´s almost new year, and once again I´m making plains for this new year. I´m not a type of guy who makes plains, in fact I´m more like live and see what will happen person. This year I have some plains, I really do and one of them is to see my novel published.

I´m pretty confident this time, some light at the end of the tunnel and a concrete possibility of that happens so, maybe this time ( in fact) this time is for real.

No more be fooled by the others. I learned that this Christmas and after that, no more. I let myself be fooled but I´ve learned my lesson so, good by Mr. Nice Person.

My return to university. Yeah, I will, languages and to improve my English more. That´s something I´ve been postponing for a while but this year is different, I will go and take my degree.

I can see I´m a different person already. happy new year to me and to those who will read it. A new life is waiting for me and I´ll enjoy each and every minute of it.

The Head on The Door.

2009-12-13T10:49:00.006-02:00

Behind that door, I´ll finally have the chance to meet someone who has been so important to me, so nice, which I never thought I could have that chance, now it´s time and I´m ready, at least I think I am.

I open the door and I see a beautiful white room, very large but with any furniture in it, just a big leather arm chair and siting there, my beloved Kathy is waiting for me. She is as gorgeous as ever, wearing a beautiful white dress, high hills and those earrings I sent to her. Her smile, I can´t resist it, she has a genuine and happy smile, not to mention those eyes, which I fell for them since I saw her photo. I feel Like I am in another dimension, in fact, I´m feeling I´m in heaven, I can´t stop smiling, I also can´t wait to listen her voice, her southern accent. I have so many things to say, to tell and finally I´m having the opportunity, to meet her, not that I haven´t ,we know each other so well, I can say, just like Róisín Murphy song, which is my all time favorite " You Know Me Better": You know me better than I know myself, you know me the best. We´ve been so close that I really don´t know what I might do without her, without our chats, without her sweetness, she is so important and I can for sure say I can´t live without her.

I remember when I found your song, the lyrics demonstrates what we really feel for each other, "If you lose your faith baby, you can have mine, because we walk on the same line". Pretty accurate, we indeed walk on the same line. Now I´m deeply nervous, looking at her, seeing how gorgeous she is, I take a deep breath and I am ready but something is wrong, I can´t move.

I´m paralysed, I really don´t know why. I can move, she haven´t noticed it, maybe she thinks I´m nervous but It´s more than that, and the worst part is I really don´t know why. It´s like some spell, some magic because I want to come close to her but I just can´t. I´m desperate, after some time to finally reach that point and now I just can´t I´m going to lose our first date and I can´t help it.

She stands up, still smiling and now she is coming to me, touching her silky blond hair and coming close and I´m still paralysed, but happy because I am only a few steps to give her a big hug and a big kiss. Suddenly, I woke up, and she is gone. In fact it was just a dream, nothing but a dream. I start feeling sad, frustrated. I was so close to meet her, my sweet Kathy and It was nothing but a dream. Why? I really don´t know. It was so vivid, so real and ended up a dream, nothing but a dream.

I´m devastate, so sad that It was only a dream. I decide what I´m going to do. I lay my head on the door and I wait to fall sleep again, hopping I´ll once again dream of you my beloved Kathy, with our first date and praying for this time, my dream will have a happy end.

This is for you Kathy. I hope you like this short story. As a matter of fact, It´s based on a dream I had, even though the dream ended like that, I woke up so happy, after all, dream of you was really one of the pleasant dreams I´ve ever had. Thanks for being so important and so amiable. I really love you from the deepest of my heart.

Kisses.

DVDs.

2009-12-02T22:12:00.020-02:00

Two weeks ago, I had to buy another bookcase, in fact one bookcase for my always growing book collection and another, this time a DVDcase. I had to get a new one because my DVDs are so many that my old one was small for my also growing DVD collection. I had to put all my DVDs on the floor so I could arrange them in order, and I had an idea, I took pictures of my DVDs. It´s pretty strange but I did, stranger was i forgot the pictures, I stored them and I forgot.

Last Monday, after I returned form a trip, I remembered those pictures and I uploaded in my computer and now I´ll add on my blog, to show my DVD collection. Please, don´t go thinking I´m an obsessive person or even a geek, okay, I am but it´s okay, I´m cool with it and so you can be too.

This is my movie collection. Well, it´s just a part
of it, I have more. I spotlight Ghost World
because I love both movie and Graphic Novel. It´s a touching movie, showing how growing up is so hard and can affect our lives forever. You can also see Iron Man, Fantastic Four, Superman Return and many others. I love those comics movies, I know they are sometimes silly and stuff but i love. After all, I´m a huge comic book fan and it´s cool , isn´t it?

This is my Smallville boxes, season one to seven. I have to buy the eighth season (money, money). I still like Smallville, I know it has problems and some seasons weren´t goo but I like it, I love Superman so, I´ll stick until it ends, maybe this season or not but i´ll stick around. you can also see my Lois and Clark collections and my precious Speed Racer box with all cartoons. I still love and this one if my all time favorite cartoon. Go Speedy!

The Classic Adventures of Superman starring George Reeves is my treasure. I love this series and I have all volumes. I spent a good money on them and worth every cent. It has all, Superman at his best, silver age gala and magic. It´s pretty primitive in terms of special effects. They way Superman flies and how he jumps, using a little trampoline which is on almost scene. It´s also naive and childish but has the Superman spirit of "Truth, Justice and the American way". I have to watch the fourth season which this Sunday will be the day.

These two movies are my all time favorite. Before Sunrise and Before Sunset. The story of these two strangers meeting each other and start a relationship is my type of love story. Not to mention it´s well written and exquisitely shoot. Both Jilie Delpy and Ethan Hawke gave life to these characters and the sequel is even better . They meet again after ten years and it´s also a touching story of lost and found . I recommend to all at least watch it once, I do that once a year to help me writing my own love stories and one day i´ll meet my strange and we´ll live a romantic adventure.

Dead Like me and Point Pleasant are amazing! I still love those series even though they aren´t on TV anymore. Dead Like Me returned as a Direct to DVD movie, the one on spotlight. I like the movie and it closed the series and opened a possible return which never happened. Point Pleasant was extraordinary too, the story of a mysterious girl who arrived in a small coast city and changed their lives forever. Not to mention she was the daughter of the devil.

Now the misadventures of Hank Moody, a writer who lost his soul to sexy and drugs. I love Californication.It´s one of the most innovating series of Today´s TV. I have both seasons and I´m watching the third and It´s pretty amazing, just like the previous two seasons. As a writer, I identify myself with hank, besides the sexual content and his lucky to find girls willing for sexual adventures. I can´t live without my Californication fix, I just can´t.

At last but not least, My Buffy boxes, as well as my Psych, Chuck and Wolverine and The X-Men. Buffy is always good to watch, Psych is funnier no matter the episode and Chuck is Chuck, I can´t say how I love Chuck. I just finished watching the second season and I can´t wait for the third. Chuck and his new powers... Psych is my Friday night funny hour, 11 pm and one hour of laughing and joy.

It´s over. I have more but I´ll take them for another opportunity. You all had the chance to see some fantastic items of my DVD collection. Give one of those pics a try. I know you´ll have fantastic moments and you´ll know what I am talking about. and I´ll end up with a quote from one of mt favourite dead Like me characters Betty, she used to say it all the time so..." Happy thoughts".

Ha!

2009-11-26T14:54:00.000-02:00

I really tried to upload the video but nowhere seems to accept it, or it´s too big or it´s too small. Imagine if it was another type of video, that´s for sure wouldn´t be a problem to upload it if it was that type of video.

I gave up, I´ll try later but I have no hope at all but in the end, what the point? None I believe.

It´s Done.

2009-11-25T21:25:00.002-02:00

Today I finished the video, at least one of them I´ve been planning. It ended up pretty horrible, indeed, so horrible that I felt like Ed Wood. It´s okay, it´s just a Follow Friday thing, I ´m hoping no one feels as ashamed as I am after I saw it done. let´s wait until Friday to see my friend´s reaction in regards to it.

I hope I can do other videos and better ones or I will be the new Ed Wood of Internet videos.

It´s too hot in here and Rio is like hell but it´s natural here so, the only person who complains it´s only moi. I´ll enjoy the hot house until the sleep time so, tomorrow I hope I have more happy things to say or bad, this blog needs me and I´ll return and Friday there is Follow Friday Comics.

My Life On Twitter.

2009-10-27T12:14:00.002-02:00

My first Twitter account was about one year ago, under the alias of johnconstantine and it lasted two days. Yeah, only two days. I had no idea how that worked and I posted some thoughts and actions and I got bored and frustrated and I terminated the account.

Last April, my friend Justin convinced me to join again, this time under my real identity, and I decided to give it a try, still believing I would fall into the same trap but this time, he helped me to figure out Twitter and the rest I had to do on my own so, the adventure has just begun.

I can´t complain, at all, I made lots of great friends and some amazing and close friends such as Emma, Craig, Dru, Billy, Janina, Leanne, Rachel and others. I have a daily contact with them, others I have a regular and some others I miss and I have no idea where they are but it´s natural, life works that way.

I use Twitter mostly to write about my life, to chat with my friends and to read what others posts, like news and some relevant things of my interest, I believe it works that way, I´m still trying to figure it out, I know, I´m that dummy sometimes. I don´t regret my current Twitter experience and either my previous because without that fiasco, I would´t have met some excellent and amazing people I´m proud to call friends and I believe when I become a famous or just a regular author, I´ll continue to use it, after all, Twitter is a important and cool part of my life and without it, I would be kind of lost, it´s strange from a person who never liked Internet stuff or even twitter.

Hi My Blog.

2009-10-26T09:21:00.002-02:00

Well, since last week, to be true since two Fridays ago, I´ve been neglecting my blog, this blog not my tumblr one, I don´t know why, maybe because there it´s more fast pace, I don´t need to write anything down, just post a photo or re blog another one´s but I like Thoughts, after all, here was the first place I started writing my thoughts to others, even though I believe only a few read what I write but it´s okay, it´s better than no one.

I´ll write more, not to mention I´ll go to others places I´m member from now one, forums specially,l those I´ve been neglecting as well, like comic book ones, I miss those places and I´ll return today after all, I have fun reading and post about stupid super heroes, and comics stories and I´ll start another blog, this one is about X-Men stuff and I´ll earn some money to write it but both Thought and Life or Something will be my places, after all I´m a writer and I can write about anything, not only X-Men or re blog photos.

See, now this will go directly to tumblr and I´ll post something there too, I´m back my blog, and for good.

My On Line Novel.

2009-09-25T13:40:00.004-03:00

After thinking about this possibility for quite a while, I decided to publish a novelette on line. I don´t know if it will works out, if someone will read it but I will do, I´m going to do to be true and let´s see what might happen.

I´m a little afraid of the results,My English is but I´ve never written or even showed my English writings since my school years and I´m afraid of what readers would think about it, I´m a human, I´m afraid of the possible mistakes I´ll make and so on, I know only my close friends and some others will read it but I really don´t want to play the fool or make myself a fool in front of them, that´s the reason I´m re-doing some parts and proofreading it again, to avoid any mistakes but I´m quite sure I´ll make some but I hope lots of.

I´m still waiting for my written novel to be publish and that was the reason I decided to do that on line, to show I´m not just talking, I´m an author and to show my work off and with "Hold me Tight" I believe I´m going to be able to do that. Let´s see.

If it works out , which I believe it will, I´ll do more and maybe that big vampire saga I´ve been working could see a place on this new blog, called "Chronicles".

Wish me all the luck I´ll need.

Now It Is Time.

2009-09-24T17:39:00.002-03:00

I ´ve waited too much and now I know it´s time for an different approach and a new way to drive my life, now or never, just a matter of pride and no one will say I can´t do or I´m not capable. Tomorrow will be different and I really hope it will in a outstanding way.

Why?

My Dearest Kathy.

2009-09-11T18:55:00.003-03:00

Last Wednesday, I faced one of the darkest time of my life, which was so many that I can tell all of them by heart but this one really affected me, really made me so sad that I actually cried in from of the computer, I almost lost my best friend Kathy.

I hurt her heart and I know that, it was m fault, I admit but I also did it with no intention, but I hurt her, I tried to help her, I tried to avoid some bad people to attack her, which was something constant but instead of that I made what I should never have don, I attacked her and I broke her heart. I tried to make her see that I was guilt, but at a level I was, I made my BFF bad, something that I never thought I could do, but I did.

I felt, through all her posts she was suffering but I was too, with the uncertainty that she could believe me, that my intentions were just to help but in the end it only made her badder than she was already, and I was crazy believing I could lose her friendship, which is so important to me, since our first PM, we started that amazing friendship relation, which I always was thanked that it happened, for me, to help me facing some horrible moments I´ve been facing and with all her PM messages and gifs always made my day way better, as well as those that I sent her but at that time, I was afraid I would never get them again, not to mention any other PM form someone so important to me.

I could feel how she was suffering in each and every word she wrote, something that was hurting me a lot and for what? Nothing, just a stupid post I made and a birthday PM I sent to a bad person, how stupid I was, how horrible I was to someone so important, so amiable and the most important, my friend. Something that I will regret for the rest of my life, imagine not be able to talk to my close friend because of something so stupid but it was almost happening, even with my effort to prevent that but the damage was done and no way to turn back the clock and undo those things.

I was luck enough she returned my PM and talked to me, after all, after what I have done, it was something, I could stop asking for forgiveness, how sorry I was and how I regret the things I´ve done but I know she was sorry to, for what I have done to her, the way I treated her and how I made her cry, but how she could forgive me, specially after those things but she still, just like me fighting for something so special, our friendship, trying to understanding why I did what i did and so do I. I posted and posted and so she did too, trying to keep the friendship alive and I was trying to make her see that I still was her friend, even after those mistakes.

I´m not sure she will one day forgive but she is still talking to me, she still believes that our friendship can survive after those dark moments and I can say I´m happy for that, not for what I did but with her to be so nice to accept me again, to still answer my PM and more important, talk to me. I´ve learned my lesson, I almost lost my BFF and as I said, for nothing, she even asked for an advice, which she always asked and I always was and am pleased to help but for a long moment, I thought she would not come to me for help again, what a fool I was and I can´t stop saying that, not a moment. I still feeling she is hurt but I don´t want she feels that way, not anymore, that´s why I am writing this, to make her feel better, to know she is important to me and I will never act that way again, not after I almost lost her, not anymore so Kathy, forgive me, I know I don´t deserve but you was brave enough to fight for our friendship, the way I fought too fir still talking to me, with was also important, even facing that would never be possible again.

I love you Kathy, you are important to me and always will be, I hope we can be friends forever and BFF to be true, I was wrong, I hurt you but I was hurt too, knowing I could even talk to you is something that I can´s face, not you, not my close friend, and I´ll send you gifs because I know you love those and maybe will take a long time but you will trust me again because as I said you are important to me, in so many ways and I can´t and won´t let our friendship dies. I hope I didn´t talked to much so, one one thing, I mean two things I will say:

Kisses and Hugs from your BFF.

Claude.

Biannual Book Fair.

2009-09-11T00:30:00.020-03:00

Well this is is another edition of the biannual book fair or in Portuguese: Bienal do Livro, it´s a huge literary event, which is something traditional to me after all I´ve been to the last 5 editions, of 15, good numbers. I love this events and here in Rio is so rare that happen, after all, books are very expensive and most of the people can afford them but let´s forget it and go to the fair, I´ll be you guide.

It´s not near, it´s in a place called Recreio dos Bandeirantes, a little far from Barra da Tijuca, which is far too but it´s a good trip, after all, I could see some beauty places and others not so good.

I had to that the subway, which is a fast trip and the train is clean and comfortable, after that I took a bus to Alvorada and then one to the book fair but subway provides the fair so, only pay for one and have three, pretty good and more money to books.

The "trip" takes more or less two hours, which we can see some interesting views like beaches, most of the way is full of them, I love the coast and Rio is the place for that, and take a look.

Finally I arrived, after almost two hours and with my stomach in heat, I´m not tolerate to long vehicle trips but here I am, a little early from the opening, only a few minutes until it, I love the first day, no crowd, you can look for things without worry and it´s calm, for a hunter llike me, it´s perfect, different from the weekends, which is almost impossible, not to mention school trips and all the rest but it´s another tradition of mine, first day and it´s opening, I have to go.

I payed R$12,00 for the pass, which provided me access to all the place, I take the program and the map and here I go, to the hunt. It´s a big place, Rio Centro, the name of the place is huge, if you imagine when here had that Panamerican Olympic games, some competitions were practiced there, it´s so huge that you can get lost but I have the map and here I go.

It´s the corridor I walked to see the places and to go to my first place, Devir, there is the place I buy my comics, they send them to me but I also like to go to see my friend Paulo which takes care of my and other´s signature, I talked to him for a long time that I forgot to take the picture, I suck sometimes, but I also find some good things there, Ghost World TP, Miracle man Silver age Book 4, Grendel TP that I missed and some old marvel Graphic Novels, Those I took pictures, and look below and you´l see;

After those fantastic buying, I go for another run, after all there were so many places to go but a whole day to do, no worry and no need to work, I´m so good. I went to almost all places but nothing in terms of books really caught my attention, but I bought three novels, which one, "Undead and Unreturnable" by MaryJanice Davidson I read almost 60 pages in my way back home, I also bought a collection of short stories and plays by Oscar Wilde and " Slaughtermatic " by Steve Aylett, which you can see right bellow.

I also talked to some editors and take addresses to send my novel, which I can say look promising, at least they looked interest so, Monday I´ll start to work hard to see it goes well, fingers crossed.

More walk and more places but I stopped for a while to eat, my Club Social crackers and a Coca Cola, after all, I´m hungry. After the "lunch" another round and look who I found, Hulk, the literature monster.

Even Twilight was present, my friend Janina from twitter and Facebook would love that and not to mention the amount of magazines with Twilight on it, She would be in heaven. I like it too so, I was a little in heaven too.

Well, time to go, after three hours walking there, I´m so tired and the trip will be exhausting too, but it was worth, but it sad too.

Good Bye book fair, see you in two years from now.

The return is also full of good sights, nature is everywhere and also some not so good images but I´ll show only the beauties, which is right here.

Not to mention inside the bus, which isn´t that bad, at all.

So, after another two hours and some reading and photos, I´m almost home, pretty close.

It was a fantastic day, which I will always remember, which some excellent finds and a whole day of joy and fun and I´ll have to wait another two years to go again but will be great, just like this one, I´ll be part as a famous writer, will be excellent.

I Have To Do That More Often.

2009-09-06T11:28:00.006-03:00

I have indeed, it was a great time, I went, out of sudden to go to a little place called Mangaratiba, it´s a type of summer place and also has a fantastic beach so, why not?

I took the bus, which I spent almost two hours to get there, I was lucky because this weekend it´s a four day weekend due Independence day, it started well. I went knowing there were any vacancy in any hotel but I really cared, I was only stay for the day, so, beach here I was.

I had to walk a little to arrive to the beach, it´s along railroad but with no train so, just walk and walk, not a good thing in a hot day but that beach really make that sacrifice worth. After a while walking I finally was in the beach, which I really don´t know the name but it really mattered? Of course not, only enjoy every minute was important there.

I put my light bag, with only a t-shirt, a shirt, two towels and some money to eat and drink and have a great time, enjoying the warm sunny lights, not to mention I swan like I´ve never for a long time, The sea there is like a giant pool, no waves and just enjoy, even with the large number of people there but I really cared, it was my fun time so, give me space.

After almost a morning an most of the day enjoying the beach was time to leave, eat something so, I went downtown and there were a good restaurant when I had a very light meal, salad and a beef, just to eat something and have no further problem. After that, I took a walk through the city until my time to leave and that was my day, a great time which I have to do it more often, and I´ll.

While I was in the bus, returning to home I realized something, one thing that I have to buy in the future is my own private island, just like Johnny Depp, don´t have to be a caribbean one but a good and perfect one is good for me, who know? Maybe after I became famous.

Ideas, Ideas And Ideas.

2009-09-01T11:36:00.003-03:00

Well, after a finished my novel, some work has to be done before finding a place to publishing it but I can´t stop thinking about other themes and possible ideas for stories.

First of all, I have to proofread it, to see if I made any mistakes while typing and it´s almost done, only a few pages left then, I´ll take copies and right after take the rights and so, I´ll try publication. It´s not easy but it has to be done but even that my mind is still overflowing with ideas and one is just hammering so hard that I have to start the initial process.

I´m already writing down some ideas and the characters´profile and everything to help me this long journey, maybe I´ll do a type of trilogy, not a epic but a really funny and laid back one, with vampires, which is a favourite subject and for quite a long time I have the desire of doing such theme but none idea sounded proper, until now.

I still have to finish my short story but I can do both and meanwhile, i´ll have my novel published, so I hope.

This Is The End.

2009-08-27T14:13:00.004-03:00

Well, for my current novel is. After seven months, thirty chapters and two hundreds and eight pages, it´s over, done. My fiends Cristina and Lucas will finally have the deserved rest, until someone opens the book and bring them to life.

My novel "Amar você" (Love you) is about two young adults, that after apart, from some issues and most because of them, after ten years, they re-encounter and start their relationship again. It´s not that easy, there is a middle and most important, the beginning, which is told in form of flash-back but not a common one, in form of memories until the day they finally meet again.

Lucas and Cristina´s name are based on the lead characters of Point Pleasant TV series, which helped me because I had no idea of names, but the whole novel is the junction of three short stories, which the main is the principal plot, the Lucas and Cristina´s love story and other two, which I wanted so bad to make this into a novel and these two others helped me during the journey.

I love all my characters and Lucas and Cristina aren´t different, after all I spent seven months with them, not to mention they are part of me, flaws, qualities, fears and other feelings. just like all my characters, not to mention the support characters, which are also a little bit of me and others. It´s sad to say goodbye to them, but it´s also happy to finish something with love, the love I put in every chapter, paragraph, line and punctuation, something that I put, more than anything my total effort and heart, it´s over and the way I planned.

Now, it´s the hard part, proofread it, take copies, get the rights and try to publish it. I have good feelings this one will finally see print, after all it´s a love story, I´m good at love stories and it WILL be publish, I hope. After I wrote the last paragraph, I felt something, not that happiness and satisfaction feeling but the feeling of a well done job and I know my hero and inspiration would be proud of my, my prophet Jane Austen, thanks my lady for make me the author I always wanted to be.

Words Can Be So Harmful.

2009-08-26T09:20:00.008-03:00

Well, I´m feeling so bad right now, so miserable that I really don´t know how I´ll make through the day. I woke up nice but after those words, I was turned my mood and here I am, feeling that way.

Why words can cause so many warm? Specially those I just listened to, from someone so special and close, why? After I heard about my life, the way I live and how I deal with things, I can´t act differently, not right now and maybe not for a while.

It should have been a great occasion, I´m almost finishing my novel, it´s only a few pages left to write, it´s doing well, the story has come perfectly and everything fitted but because of that, of my novels and dreams that I listened to those words.

Who am I thinking I´ll become a author? I should have stayed in real life instead of living a crazy and stupid dream, not to mention about my mistakes, those I made back them, those I made in a month ago and some that I´ll make in the future. Well, after that I drunk my coffee and went to work, feeling bad and sad, devastated during the subway, like a 25 minutes trip lasted a lifetime.

Now I´m at work, in front of my computer and I really can´t do anything less than feelling that way, I locked my door and I hope nobody comes bothering me, not now or during the day, I´m feeling like digging a whole and go inside it, disappear for a while and then re-start as someone brand new but It´s impossible, I´ll have to stay me, face everything and everyone and put that behind, like I always do but this time, it´s pretty hard to do that. Indeed, I´ll get better by the end of the day, I´ll try something to help me get through it, maybe a movie or someone but this sadness will last for quite a while, if there is a light that never goes out, I think it´s not for me, not for this person who dared to dream, a dream that he may not see fulfilled but it´s not right or fair to say the truth for a dreamer, he has to break his face by himself, which by some help, I already broken mine.

My Best Friend Forever.

2009-08-22T20:58:00.005-03:00

I´m a big Law and Order: Criminal Intent fan, since it started I´ve been watching the adventures of Detective Robert Goren and his partner Alexandra Eames, every Thursday night and after it came to USA Network, I was browsing the official site and I went to the Forum´s section, I´m a member of numerous forums and I was a little cautions to be member of another one, I went there and took a look, liked and signed in. I waited for the confirmation and the next day I started to post, my first one, an introduction to other members, one member, called Krodgers answered and gave me the proper welcome in fact, a harm one and I realised this site would be totally different from any other I was part.

The time passed, I posted and posted and one day, Krodgers always so nice and her anniversary came and I decided to give her a virtual gift, I PM her with a gif image showing my congratulations for her anniversary, she loved and from that PM on we became Best Friends Forever.

I love her, from the bottom of my heart, she is fantastic, so nice, amiable, we PM each other always, with some fine word, a gif image or just to say hi, I really appreciate her friendship, it´s really important, she is fantastic and I always, when I go to the forum wait for a PM because I know will be so joyful and will make me and my heart happy.

I`ve never wondered the fact I love Law and Order: Criminal Intent could gave me not only entertainment and a great one hour per week but also a extraordinary and fantastic friend like Kathy, I´m really thankful to it to her for being my friend and the most important thing, my Best Friend Forever.

Kisses and Hugs from your BFF

Claude.

A Perfect Day Arrived.

2009-08-14T09:34:00.015-03:00

Well, I´m in London, in fact I always wanted to come here, for quite a while to be true but always postponed it, no reason, but most of time was money that made me do that, but not this time, specially after Craig invited me, to finally meet them, my coolest twitter friends.

For a long time I was apart from those communication channels like twitter, facebook and myspace and now I´m part of all, in part I can thanks Justin, my x-friend, we both share the love for X-men comics and I´m also administrator of http://www.xmenfansite.com/, I take care of preview and news part, all related to X-Men comics and also I put some cool games and topics, to spice things up, he convinced me to join twitter,in fact he created my page but after I made my own path, facebook came after and I realized what I was missing and later what I gained.

I had no idea how twitter worked, Justin helped me a lot but I had to find, like I said find out by myself, how to make things work, to follow and be followed, I had no choice but try and then follow Friday came, it was my first one and I had no idea what it was and I indeed figured that out. Another black taxi cab, I look like a fool amazed with those things,as well as double Decker buses, indeed I´m a fool, a one that the first thing I did when I arrived in London was going to King´s Cross Station, just because an old Pet Shop Boys´song. I still remember, Emma was my first follow Friday,the one that actually followed me in return,I was attracted by her vintage photo pic /avatar,and she was so nice I still remember that question I made "I will follow you, follow me?" and she did, and post after post we became good friends,which was so great, I just made an extraordinary friendship with such nice girl,totally out of blue, I just can´t spend a day without at least read one of her posts and say "hi" to her, she always has something cool to tell, something new, I really like her.

Two days here and I feel part of the place, totally different from the "Hellblazer" comics London I was used to and equal to "Nothing Hill" movie and "About a boy" novel and movie as well, those that I watched so many times that I can say the lines without any problem, so many people passing by me, a huge diversity, so cosmopolitan, a little bit like Rio de Janeiro but for me, it´s like a new world, I fell like Doctor Who in London, even the series is been shooting in Cardiff and not London, two days, so many places i ve been but they promised that will take me to know London a little better and I really can´t wait. Craig said will be a surprise, just like I was added by him on follow Friday and then to my close friends list, just like Emma, we instantly became friends, he always had and has a good word, something to talk with, to tell or say, he is fantastic. every time I had a date, he always encouraged me ,wished me luck and even when those turned into nothing, he gave me a word, I like him a lot and this opportunity to meet him is a once in a lifetime that I won´t pass.

Billy and his love for Nadine, his interesting posts and his attempt to turn me into an Arsenal fan, also a visit to Emirate Stadium, will a Manchester United fan become a Gunner fan, I´ll try to avoid it but as I told him, I like Arsenal too and for him, anything.We both share a love for Family guy and Simpsons, I brought some Family Guy gifts for him and a Nadine´s poster but It´s a secret.

Laura is so cute, her gorgeous round and vivid green eyes, she is so amazing, I remember hers and Emma´s FF video, I loved the way she tried to say my user name, she was so worried to say it right but in the end she did, she and Emma are so good and together, twice as good, I´m so lucky to have friends like them. She also post fantastic things, I always wanted to meet her, to see what I already know in person, how extraordinary she is and this is the time for that, I´m so nervous, I have to calm down and enjoy every moment, no time for nothing but good times, worries and nervous stayed in Brazil.

Being here has been so far, the most fantastic experience I´ve ever lived, I went to other places but this time is different, no strange in a strange place, I always want to visit other places, Manchester, New Castle, Jane Austen´s museum, that I won´t miss for nothing but right now London and everything it has to show me. I can´t stop look to my clock, waiting for the time they will arrive, to finally meet them. I can´t believe that in only two day I bought so many CDs, I really don´t know how I´ll travel back, I have to send them by mail or I´ll be arrested in Brazil, I´ll pass and by far so much the importing limits but who cares, I found what I´ve bee looking for and that only mattes but I will figure something out. That´s time I wish no to live in a country which is so hard to find good music and specially those that I like. Leanne is another great friend, she and Christina are always nice and I with great things to share, Leanna is so mysterious, always like me, with a photo pic that hides but showing something, she is beautiful, she needs to show that to us. Christina is amazing too, we are http://blip.fm/ friends too, I like her music pics, always a great choice, I hope both can show up, I really do.

Oh my God! I can´t believe, here they are, just around the corner, waving to me, Emma, Craig, Laura and Billy, finally I´ll meet them, Leanne and Christina also made it ! I can´t feel anything less that happiness and excitement, I open an ear to ear smile , waiving back. What a moment, I finally will meet my fantastic, amazing, astonishing, extraordinary... stop! My twitter friend and indeed I can say the perfect day arrived, finally.

To be continued...

Well, this is just an imaginary story, I hope one day it could become a true story and I can meet my great friends. It´s a homage to Emma, David, Laura, Billy, Leanne and Christina for being so great,friendly and way beyond any compliment, I was luck enough to meet them on twitter and be their friend, I hope our friendship can last forever and after, like 50 years we can still be on twitter, talking, posting and enjoying live, I really hope so and for me it will.

Thank you guys, you all live in my heart.

Finally! My Little Boots ´CD Arrived.

2009-08-12T23:08:00.004-03:00

Well, after a while I discovered Little boots and two months I ordered her first CD, it´s finally arrived. I just listened it again, my first time was on her myspace page and I just loved. She is a great new singer and she is cute as well and very talented as well.

This is my CD, I just took a picture when I got home, I had to show it and it is, my "Hands" CD.

So Far So Good.

2009-08-04T09:41:00.003-03:00

I´m happy that the week started way better, for sure in quite a while I didn´t have a great Monday like yesterday. I got a date, she is great nice girl,very sweet and beautiful,her red hair was something that attracted me, not to mention her conversation and she is also a fantastic artist.

I also wrote seventeen pages of my novel, it´s reaching its final moments and some turning points are waiting, not to mention that today I also wrote five pages before going to work.

I hope the rest of week continues like Monday, I will be astonishing happy if that happens.

VIVA!

Róisín Murphy.

2009-07-30T19:34:00.005-03:00

Well, I´m not in a mood to write about anything so, I´ll post a Róisín Murphy´s picture that I recently found, enjoy because not only she is beautiful but an excellent singer as well.

What else do to.

2009-07-26T00:50:00.003-03:00

Well, it´s 00:51pm Sunday and I´m totally bored and without any cool thing to do. I watched some TV, twittered, read some news of SDCC and nothing more. I really miss someone to talk,to share my feelings and thoughts and I don´t have that friend.I´m tired of that, of loneliness but I can´t help,I´m kind of difficult to deal with, maybe I´m destined to be alone, I really don´t know.

I´ll stop now, because I know I´ll become boring and that´s not the reason. I´ll be back when I have something really interesting to say, not complain.

July, 24th.

2009-07-23T22:19:00.004-03:00

Well, that´s the day I was born, July 24Th, it´s my birthday.Tomorrow to be sure and I´m kind of happy/sad, it´s a mix of feelings,I know but I´ve been feeling that way for quite a while but really deep I´m happy.

I always like my birthdays, I know there were some that really I had bad moments, but I could get some happy moments, I remember one that I got a copy of Spectacular Spider-man # 178 and it really was one of my favourites,even with the problems.

The possibility to get old and see that life passes to fast really affects me,I feel like trapped, jammed in my life at moments and with no way out,maybe it´s because of the getting old thing but it´s time to joy and happiness, after all I got a new Go Gear i-pod, video MP4, a really hard to get CD that I´ve been trying to find for a while and some other cool stuff but it´s secret, tomorrow is the day I´ll get those.

I know, for sure that I will feel the same way next year and it´s okay, at least I´m alive and with some cool people around me and who knows next year, I´ll get my plans succeed and instead of being down, I´ll be up, I really hope so.

Dance Hall at Louse Point.

2009-07-20T10:13:00.000-03:00

Well, not quite, I´ve never been there but I have it. It´s John Parish and PJ Harvey´s first album of their musical team up. I know, as a big PJ Harvey fan I didn´t have this album, maybe pure ignorance of its existence but now, I ´m save and free from that, I own it.

I´ve been a fan of her work since 95, when I saw a video of her song with Nick Cave and after that first contact, I went to buy all her albums until that and I still buy when she releases, It´s always a musical trip and I just love her songs and her.

I can´t wait to go home and listen to it, I just listened their second album, " A Woman A Man Walked By" and It´s awesome and of course I´ll love it after all, PJ Harvey never let me down in terms of excellent music and I believe she won´t anytime in the future.

Dreams.

2009-07-15T14:23:00.000-03:00

Dreams are what most of us have, specially in regards of things we want to accomplish, I have mine, specially in becoming something different from what I am right now, at least better than I am.

Today I received two rejection letters from publishing houses about my novels, Those really affected me, I had high hopes and plans but I saw that won´t be possible right now so, I have to postponed it again, maybe to a near future or it´s something that I´m just thinking or pretending to make this a little less bad than is supposed to be.

Some time ago, I posted in a forum about something that just happened to me, It seems a little far fetched but It´s totally true. I was going to lunch and I met, by chance a High School friend, not really a friend, we talked and stuff but not I could call him a friend. he recognized me, we started talking but I had no intention to, I just did just to not look a bad or impolite person. We started talking and he asked me what I was doing and stuff, I said and he came with that, if I remembered what he dreamt of being, all his life, I had no idea, no recollection of that conversation and he dropped the bomb, he was a porn actor. Whoa! Again, I had no idea having this conversation with him, but I pretended and he told me about, that he always wanted that, after school he pursued that dream and now he was a porn actor. For me, that was nothing, the fact that he told me that, after a long time without any contact was the astonishing thing, not about his career.

I felt incredibly uncomfortable and my only desire was getting out of there, as long as possible and he came with a list of movies that he acted and asking me If I could watch to see that was true. Of course I said I would, just to get his face out of mine, but he continued talking until the time I said I was going to a meeting and it was much important. He gave me his phone and I gave his a phony one and I went away, as well as he did . I have no idea if it´s true but if it is, his dream came true and he can be happy about it.

I really want to feel that way, to be happy to see my efforts to do something different, original work out, to reach success, maybe I´m just one of the ordinary and average guys, like most of but I´ll continue and maybe like my "friend" I can see, after run into some other friend that I´m a writer, a famous one would be excellent.

Bored.

2009-07-12T23:09:00.000-03:00

What a Sunday! I have to admit today was one of the horrible days to me, i felt so bored and sad, that I almost killed myself, not literally but I almost did. I read my new comics, watched some TV and even with new episodes of The Simpsons, Family Guy and American Dad, those things really didn´t help make my day a little better.

I don´t like Sunday, I have so many bad memories of Sunday, specially back in the past, when Sunday represented all bad things to me, sickness most of, my Grampa, Gramma, which I´ll not bring that issue, not to avoid to make even horst than it´s already is.

I´m glad it´s almost over and another Sunday behind but the next? I think I´ll feel the same as today but will always have the next day, to give me straight to endure Sunday and I promise to myself, again that this is the last Sunday I feel this way, I hope I can keep the promise, I´ll have to wait until next Sunday.

The Meaning of Love.

2009-07-09T20:03:00.000-03:00

I love this old Depeche Mode song, It expresses deeply what I´ll say, Love. I love to write about love, love stories in fact, I can blame Jane Austen´s novels and all romantic comedies I´ve been watching all my life, I ended up a romantic and more important, a romantic writer.

All my novels have love in, no matter if it´s a Sci Fi, a violent thriller or a hard boiled suspense, love is the engine of then, the turning point of the characters, love will show up sooner or later and no matter how hard I try to avoid love , I can´t scape, It´ll be there. As a matter of fact, the only story that doesn´t have a love in, I was so proud I could make it, I wrote almost 250 pages without a love interest, infatuation or affair, but I always thought, I know It´s a excellent Sci Fi tale but I can´t resist to think I could have put some love in it, just to not break the chain.

I think I´m the only guy who likes "Sex and The City", I know, I know but since the first episode, I´ve became a fan. I´m just like them, Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte, I´m still looking for the Miss Right. Yeah, I am. maybe that´s why I choose the romantic stories to write, the pursuit for a great someone that will complete you, respect you, support you, kiss you and more important, love you. All my romantic novels have it, someone that loved and lost and get together in the end, that special person who came from a casual encounter, like my newest novel, which because a CD, they started a conversation and then, started to know each other and the love was born. Maybe it looks tacky or not but It´s the way I see and write, my way to see and understand love.

My last girlfriend, I had the luck to meet her that way, by chance and because of a t-shirt. I went to a Star Wars/ Comics Convention and there she was, wearing a Sin City t-shirt and I came and said "I love Sin City and your t-shirt" and it worked out, we started to talk, became friends and later we were on a date and on a relationship but all good things come to an end and that ended too but I will not give up, I´ll find my other half, my soul mate or just someone who loves me and I´ll love back, I think I´m a romantic, if I wasn´t , I wouldn´t waste my time writing love stories and reading love stories. The happy end is somewhere and I´ll find, just like my characters and I really hope I won´t have to wait 250-300 pages to find it, will I?

Something made me wonder

Last Monday, I was spending some time with a friend, eating Big Macs and drinking strawberry/chocolate milkshakes and suddenly she came with something: Why there are so many famous people and some that aren´t? I just looked to her and answered: Luck. She agreed and we continued, but just for fun,pointing those who are and aren´t.

After, I realised that what I just said isn´t 100% certain, luck is am important part but other things are too, capacity, perseverance, hard work and talent but without luck, nothing any of those things really matter.

I never was a famous person, popular, just the average guy, the hard worker , with a little number but true friends, I really never bothered me in fact, I´m luck at some aspects of my life, but famous? Not my thing. I was or am that popular type, who draws followers and are the center of the place or the group, I wish I were but I´m not . I, indeed one day expect to reach at least recognition, for my write work, My novels, but I always had the impression that one day, I will die and after that, my novels will be famous, get that important recognition that I want, just like my hero, Jane Austen.

Jane Austen only got the proper recognition after her death, even during her time she got famous fans, like the Prince of England but she even could see her name on the cover of her novels, not allowed to women during her time, I think how frustrating it was to her, something that she really worked hard to write, something that i feel sorry for her.

I´m afraid of that, to work hard and fail, to get no reader, no publishing house and see my hard work, characters and all of my passion can´t see light, die before live, that´s why I decided to create this blog, to write, to show my ideas and thoughts, to express how I feel and to be famous or at least to be read, which now, It´s the most important thing to me.

About that little thing called luck, I hope I can have it, not I don´t have but in regards to my writings, I´ll post across the net, on my twitter, facebook and on forums I´m member and hope at least some like it, read it and share it , spread to others what I´m doing and who knows, to be famous or recognized before I die, which I know will happen.
