Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Being Happy!!! That´s enough for me :o)
ABOUT ME
I´m a nice, interesting and modest person :oD I also got a master´s degree in Law at Coimbra University, in Portugal, which allowed me to travel a lot and meet people, which i think is one of the main purposes of life.
My other major is in Cinema, and i love it!
I´m basically a girl who is finding out a lot about herself. The events of my life are finally shaping me and i´m liking what i´m seeing :o)
PHILOSOPHY
"Life is what happens to you while you´re busy making other plans" - If you don´t know who said that, well...

Music, Movies, and Books
So many! I hate lists, although i love "High Fidelity" (both the book and the movie)!
I guess my top three movies (if such thing is possible, due to the fact that i love Cinema and doing a list is like rating your children) would be:
- Before Sunrise
- Nuovo Cinema Paradiso
- Jules et Jim (i love the book as well - Roché´s novel is amazing)
PS: I love sooo many movies! SOME of my favorite directors are Woody Allen, Quentin Tarantino, Tim Burton, Ang Lee, Steven Spielberg, Richard Linklater (anyway, better stop).
Authors: Virginia Woolf, Machado de Assis, Clarice Lispector, J. R. R. Tolkien, Nick Hornby (gonna stop as well). Love books (also like picking favorite children).
Music: Rock (always Rock! Always!), Pop, MPB, Classic, Samba... Right now, listening a lot of My Chemical Romance and Milton Nascimento (that´s how bipolar i am).
I cry listening to Pink Floyd :oP
Rock in Rio is coming home again!!
Anyway, that´s a SMALL part of my taste.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
