interesting

The "good", in the expression"good-bye", is nothing about with "good" or "bom". This expression is one eufemismo for "God", because some people can't say the god name for other things, just when they can say about "God" , so we use, or write "good" to prevent say "God". The origin the expression is a kind os the sentence "God Be with You" , and "you" before was writing "ye". the complete sentence is "God be with you" was normal in the Shakespeare's time. and with the time the people started duplicated the "bye" and stayed "bye-bye".

This also happens in Portuguese, some times we hear somebody to say " tchau-tchau". They say two times, when one would be enough! But at last, language is language and use is use! Ah, In century XV it was common also to say " Godspeed! " as a farewell form, " would be equivalent to ours; Deus abençoe vc" , " Deus te dê muita prosperidade", etc...

I want you to meet Achmed, guys!

I hope you like it! :-)

Now I getting used waking up very early for me, and come back late at home. But I'm loving this.
I didn't use to have problems with my scredrules, I'm getting used to make a gym with my appointments.
Well, but talking about my past, I used to play with my friend on the street, was fantastic, because I used to come back very late every day, especialy when I was 8, 9.
When I was teenage I did't use to stay at home, I was always with my friends, making a lot of thinks together, listen the music, dancing at "matinê", going to the club, wethever.
Now, I get used staing more at home. I think is this.

A cute video for you!

Ok, let me see... When I was young I used to play with dolls all afternoon in my house. Sometimes, I used to watch movies, in especial, " Sessão da Tarde". I loved romantic films... Nowadays, I prefer watching drama... In relation my habits, I used to sleep all the mornings because I studied at afternoon, but now, I'm used to waking up early to going to Ceub and Unb, and working in my afternoun... In relation my plans, I would like to have to get used to doing more fisic exercice, because I know that's important to my body, but I have a little free time in my day, so I prefer to use it to other relax things...

And to finish my post about the past, beside a photo when I was a baby, hehehehe =)

I used to...

I used too........

When I was younger I used to surf every day, because this I Had too drink a terrible "vitamina" , that contains egg, milk, honey, "Maskavo" sugar, and other things, and because this "vitamina" I was able to gain 2Kg each month.... Now I'm not used to drink this anymore.... haiuhauiahauihaiuahiuaiahu
Nowadays I think that I have to get used to taking care about myself, because after my son was born I forgot everything around me and focus on Miguel(My son).

I used to ...

When I was young I used to drink a disgusting fruit juice every morning. As my brother and I didn't like eating salad, my dad used to force us to drink this juice. He used to put everything we had at home in the juice: carrots, beets, oranges, apples and much more. We called it "suco atômico". ;-D. Now that I am a bit older I am used to eating more salad but I have to get used to eating more fruit. I don't eat fruit everyday. What about you? What did you use to do when you were younger? What to you have to get used to?
