An Amazing and Utterly Wacky World of a Boy

2009-09-28T12:52:00.001+02:00

I am so so so hollow right now... I don't know what to do. Well, I know what to do, but not how to do it without regretting it afterwards, without hurting, without being a villain...

kanye west is the biggest asshole ever

shame on you, Kanye. Jackass!

ok, so now I got this thing called Windows Live Writer which will hopefully make it easier to blog and make me use it a bit more often.

keep an eye on this space! ;-)

the cook tease

2009-06-29T21:38:00.003+02:00

the bike parking lot at work is directly opposite a restaurant's kitchen.
every day when I arrive and when I leave, the cook smiles at me from inside his kitchen. the thing is, it is not an ordinary smile... it's a mischievous flirty smile and it's driving me mad.

This is one of the best Oscar speeches ever.
I am probably biased because it hits a special place, but I'm sure everyone, gay or not, got touched by these words.

bloc party @ vega tonight

2009-02-22T17:58:00.003+01:00

I am going to Bloc Party's concert tonight. On my own.
Is that too sad?

UPDATE!!:

It was an amazing concert!
I got a better place than last time (the first floor, where I could see the whole stage from above), and they really connected with the audience this time.

Yeah, their songs might seem alike one another, but they strike a chord and boy do they sound great live! It might not be Coldplay/U2 stadium rock, but it is still a crowd pleaser without losing their uniqueness at the same time.

And Kele was charming as always, and super cute with his schoolboy shorts and trainers.

The most WTF?! moment of the night: two eleven year-olds singing along every single song! With their parents next to them enjoying the concert as much as them! :)

2009-02-20T11:26:00.001+01:00

I have decided to change my blog's font and colors.
I am not sure I like the final product, but I'll give it a trial period.

recap

2009-02-20T10:46:00.006+01:00

The last month's recap:

Me and Kristian finally had a getaway weekend. We went for the weekend to Lalandia, a holiday resort on an island in South Denmark, where we rented a cabin, and spent roughly the whole time in the aquadome - waterslides, swimming pools, jacuzzis, saunas, all within an indoors tropical atmosphere.

It was an amazing weekend. We borrowed Kristian's mother car, drove there and back (we visited beautiful Møns Klint on our way back), and it was great to be somewhere just me and him.

Møns Klint (The White Cliffs)

Then there were some personal issues, relationship problems, and the typical life crisis that I have once in while. All dealt with and in the past.

My mother had her birthday this week and my gift to her was an extended weekend in London in April. I am going to be in London twice within 50 days!! Can't hardly wait for both trips. woohoo! :D

This week it started to snow in Copenhagen (actual snow, not slush) and the city is covered in a 10cm deep snow layer. In spite of being freezing outside, I love the quiteness and calm the snow brings.

CR7's new toy only lasts 2 days

2009-01-08T20:18:00.004+01:00

The portuguese brat everyone is crazy about keeps behaving badly.

Now, he totalled his brand new Ferrari (which he had just imported from Portugal), worth $300K - a bargain for Cristiano.
If you only need to work 2 weeks to get a new one, I'm sure he isn't that shaken about the accident.

Dating one busty tv-presenter one week, a fake-tanned model the other, Cristiano loves to live the good life.

the slumber party

2009-01-08T20:14:00.000+01:00

This weekend there's slumber party at mine!

The gang will come for a 'teen movies' themed sleepover. They will bring their sleeping bags, we will eat pizza and we have a big collection of films to watch (Mean Girls, American Pie, Clueless, She's All That, 10 Thins I Hate About You, ...).

And then we will do each others nails.
Or maybe not... :)

2009-01-08T20:10:00.005+01:00

I haven't posted anything in more than 2 months!! Shame on me!

We are already in 2009 and life is on full throttle!

snow and furniture

2008-11-21T22:42:00.003+01:00

Outside the first snow fall of the season.
Copenhagen is now a sea of white flakes.

The table and 4 chairs the bf bought today are assembled and the living room looks completely different. It's like we brought the living into it.

The bf leaves for a night out with some friends. I am working tomorrow morning - yeah, I know, on a saturday... but that means I get paid overtime.

5 minutes after he leaves I get a text. 'Look out of the window'. Right below, on the roof of a car, now covered in snow, he wrote "Amo-te" (I Love You in portuguese).

It was like a scene out of those Hollywood productions I'm addicted to. Right here, outside of my door.

I can't stop loving him :D

lazy boy

2008-10-11T16:59:00.005+02:00

I have just realized how bad I am at returning phone calls, replying text messages or emails my friends send me.

It is not that I don't think it is worth replying I am just lazy. Ridiculously lazy.

Even when they are on my best interest, I always postpone it - tomorrow I will write him back, I will call her later...

And then the days go by and I have a text on my phone from an old friend waiting to be answered for a whole week!

Sorry guys! Now you know, if I don't reply you right away - I still love you!! :p

I came back last wednesday (with a 6-hour delay - thanks Sterling!) from a weekend trip to Manchester and Leicester.

I went to Manchester with other 3 guys fromk the swimming club to participate in the PrideGames - my first international gay competition.
Although swimming only filled the saturday afternoon, I swam a lot and eventually got 5 medals (3 gold and 2 silver) back home. Not bad for a first-timer! :)

Bur of course what we did most was clubbing and taking the most out of Manchester's gay village.
Our hotel was 2 blocks away from Canal Street, the epicentre of mancunian's gay life.
The street itself is amazing - a cute typical english street along a canal. And there are gay bars next door to each other from no. 1 Canal Street until the very end. And then on crossing and perpendicular streets.

No need to say, we were out friday, saturday and sunday. As true tourists, we had to try all of the bars.
Manchester was a pleasant surprise. English boys are not the most stunning, but boy are they flirtatious!
Another thing I loved, and missed from my London party-days, was the popmusic played at gay bars, with plasma screens everywhere showing the videoclips at the same time.

On sunday and monday we got to do cultural/sightseeing stuff. The centre of Manchester - the shopping streets and old-town are charming; and Salford Quays (15 min outside Manchester) is a must see, harbouring The Lowry, Imperial War Museum North, and Old Trafford not too far away.

I even survived the complicated english railway system, by visiting my friend Tania in Leicester I hadn't seen in 2 years, before flying back to wonderful Copenhagen.

For photos, check my Facebook profile ;)

I'm flying to England tomorrow. Finally some time off!

I convinced myself to participate in an international swimming competition.
My first time will be in Manchester, for PrideGames. I'll be swimming 100m & 50m breaststroke + 50m freestyle *gasp* and I keep telling myself is all about participating and gaining experience :)

Did I also mentioned I joined the newly created gay waterpolo club?? I'm the one lying out of breath by the poolside after each session :p

And because Leicester is not that far away, I'll pay a visit to my friend Tânia, who I haven't seen for more than a year!

pride week

2008-08-28T11:32:00.007+02:00

Hi folks!

Here comes my monthly post :)

I do try my best to post more often, but I either don't have the time or don't feel like it.

Let's see what has been going on the last couple of weeks...

_____________

Well, Javi came to visit two weekends ago. He was the guy I met in Aarhus at the intro-week and who was flirting with me all the time without me noticing. When I eventually did, it was too late and he had gone back to Spain.

He lives now in Barcelona and I promised at the time to visit him and take revenge, but the perfect timing never came. 2 years went by and he came to Scandinavia on a summertrip.

He stayed at my place for a weekend and it was great to see him again.

It's weird to be the guy showing the city around, rather than being "the tourist".

______________

We have also gotten a new little friend :)

Luke, one of the brits we met last November at Masken and eventually went to Stockholm with for a weekend. He has moved to Copenhagen!

It is AWESOME to have him around. Finally someone who understands pop-music and shares my passion of gossip magazines :)

We have been introducing him to the danish life, which includes loads of bureaucracy, cheap shots, and slutty guys. Although I wouldn't say he jumped hearfirst into the last one. He is still adapting :)

______________

Then last week was Pride Week. My first Pride ever - in Cph, Lisbon or anywhere else.

I was really excited, as there were all this events, parties, arrangements. The Town Square was turned into Pride Square for 5 days, with all the LGBT organizations represented, concerts, debats, etc... which actually I didn't experience that much.

Pride hit me hard on the weekend - the Parade on saturday was amazing. The biggest ever, according to numbers, the sun was shiny and it was hot for once that week, there was people at the streets waiting to see it all the way from Nørrebro to the Town Square.

At night we started at Code, some cosmos and gin-and-tonics, then headed to Studiestrædet, which was closed to traffic for the night and full of people drinking outside Masken and Chaca. It reminded me of Bairro Alto and of how much I miss Lisbon!

We ended up staying there for a long time, which meant we got very drunk very early... we were supposed to go to one of the many parties afterwards, but those Smirnoff Ice bottles kept appearing out of nowhere and people were soon drifting home.

As a true trouper I still managed to go to Rocco and meet my boyfriend and some other firends and shake my booty :)

I am SO looking forward to Pride 2009!!!

_______________

And then it was back to the hard life.

Specially now that I'm moving in with Kristian, it was been hectic!

Him moving in, then getting all the appliances, furniture, whatnot we need, now me moving in tonight.

It has been very tiring, but it will be so worth it once it's over!

____________

And to lighten things up, there's another poolparty this weekend!! Woohoo!!
