6 months resume

Pretty much has happened since I last came here:

- I passed through the hospital praxis;

- My fiancée arrived @ the Afonso Pena Airport (in Curitiba) for a month of crazy holidays \o/;

- We spent this time meeting all kind of relatives and friends (mine and his) ^^;

- I had to come back home some days before he got back to Germany 'cause of a bank bill #%&**;

- University started again and with it the clinic praxis;

- I kept track with my fiancée through the good old skype;

- My fam & I moved from our apartment to a nice old haunted house [Y];

- Barbecued and had parties with friends [Y];

- Presented my physiotherapy thesis and got approved [3 times Yay] =)

- Finished clinic praxis, said goodbye to the patients;

- Cheered through the whole worldcup thing. =)

Now I'm enjoying my demi-2-weeks-holidays, during which I'm learning about Acupuncture and Pilates at university (geek!), working at home, and looking for a job. Oh yes, and some time in between preparing myself for the wedding (to be set End of Feb/2011). Oh crazy life!

Dear ones...

... it's really sad I couldn't stand to my promise and write once a month here. :( Time just seem to fly away these last months, specially in these last 3 weeks. And as time goes by I feel more and more like this:


As announced before, I had my paper's presentation in beginning of November, but not the really decisive one - 'twas just a test. I ended up leaving my real presentation for beginning of next year. Why? Well, there was just lack of time to prepare it properly and, more important then all, there was some data missing which I need to add to it as soon as possible.
I really hope I'm gonna manage to have more time to do this stuff next semester. There's still the clinical praxis I need to do, plus some anatomy assistant classes I'd like to give for the new ones. :)

Till there, there's still a hospital praxis week before me and the most wanted holidays ever! :D
I just can't wait to see my beloved one! (Y) It's gonna be mint! It's gonna be great!

Well, besides that I don't really have something new to add.
Oh, yes. Xmas is gonna be @ grandma's and grandpa's, as usual in our family, and New Year I'm meeting my (future) mother-in-law, father-in-law and whoever else I need to meet and know from my fiancée's family. It's gonna be ace and also a little bit frightening - maybe. :)

HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
Love,
morgAna.

Report port port :P

Shame on me! It seems like ages that I haven't been here! Well, and it surely is (at least lots of months!). This way, noone can keep track, tsts. I promise to better myself in this matter! I'm gonna come once a month at least to say something, ok?!

I'm fine, doing my university studies and trying to keep up with everything.
The praxis at the hospital takes lots of time, so I ended up not doing that job. Now I see that it was a wise decision, but at the time I decided that it almost cut my heart! I really love to teach, from small on, and speaking languages seem to be so much more fun and easy than studying the human body!

Not that I don't like the choice I've made when I started doing the Physical Therapy course at university! It's just that's much harder to get all the informations I need to take care of a patient. And this challenge sort of makes me love the course. I know, it's controversial, but what can I do? Human beings usually love what's harder to achieve.

My parents are now for 5 or 6 years looking for the perfect house to live in Curitiba. They finally seem to have found the perfect one, but there are lots of burocracy and other people interested in buying it. For us, it would be perfect because dad would have his space for the books (we have an apartment library instead of an apartment right now!), mum would have the whole crew together again (at least for some time (:) and we would finally eat all together in the same table again. I hope this situation can be cleared till end of the year. Would be ace to move into a new home in the beginning of the year!

Yesterday I've started to go to one of the small groups that we have at church. I used to go to them before, but it's now a completely different group, though I know good part of the people that are in them. We talked about Revelation 7 and had a quite good discussion about end of times and how the heaven might be. I specially liked an explanation that one of the girls said about heaven being like a baby in the womb of a woman. It is nurtured by her own mother, it doesn't need anything else than just staying in there in the grace of being caried safefully. (:

And what's so still happening with me this year: My paper presentation is in 3 weeks, lots but really lots of studies to do for uni and the visit of my fiancée to Brasil in December/January. Yay!
