When I joined the university in 1982 as a graduate engineer, there were only 10 girls in the class of 625 students. When I was 13 years old and I decided to begin surfing, as far as I can remember, I was the only girl on the waves with a surfboard and when I started my guitar lessons, again, I was the only girl in the neighbourhood who had a dream of learning to play electric guitar like Jimmy Page ![]()
Thank goodness things have changed and nowadays engineering, surfing and electric guitar are no longer exclusively for men.
So to celebrate International Women’s Day I’m posting two videos, the first one on female surfers and the other is about a female guitarist.
Well done girls! Happy International Women’s Day to all of us ![]()

Like Wolverine the guys from Coldplay also are Corinthians fans. Yesterday three members of the band visited the club. They were on the pitch during a training session and had the opportunity to wear the official jersey and play with some members of the team including Ronaldo
Having said that, here it is today’s best music:
Timão ê ôooooo!!!!

Yes I know, this blog needs a new post. The thing is, I’ve been busy, very busy and I couldn’t stop to think about the 1000’s of things I would like to write, but I will. It’s a promise
Happy 2010 !

Who had the idea of slicing time into pieces,
which were given the name of year,
was a genius person.
Industrialized hope
pushing it to the limits of its exhaustiveness.
Twelve months are enough for any human being to get tired and give up.
Then comes the miracle of renovation and all stars once again
we pick up another number wishing that
from now on everything will be different..
…For you,
I wish your dreams fulfilled.
The love you waited.
Hope renewed.
For you,
I wish all the colors of life.
All happiness you can smile to
All songs you can thrill.
For you in this new year,
Wish all friends to be better,
May your family be more united,
May your life be more lived.
I would like to wish you so many things.
But nothing would be enough…
So, I wish only that you have many wishes.
Big wishes and may they move you further every single minute,
on route to your happiness!
Time – Carlos Drummond de Andrade
