nonsense 102

(s)he appears composed, so (s)he is, i suppose
who can really tell?
(s)he shows no emotion at all
stares into space like a dead china doll

nonsense 101

I’m set free and I’m ready to go
You can’t stop me and you already know
The best days of our lives have yet to come

Geografia Africana

Novidades?...Parece que já sei todas as capitais dos países de África.
Aqui fica o link:

African Capitals Level 2 - Intermediate Plus


E para que me interessa isto?
Ora aí está uma questão a que não consigo responder com clareza, mas é sempre bonito saber qual é a capital do Botwsana, do Benin e do Burundi, já para não falar do Burkina Faso e de Comoros ou mesmo da Gambia!

Kaiser Chiefs - Oh My God

Ah...a ironia...

Time on your side that will never end
The most beautiful thing you can ever spend
But you work in a shirt with your nametag on it
Drifting apart like a plate tectonic
It don't matter to me
It's all I wanted to be
It's a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

Too much time spent dragging the past up
I didn't see you not looking when I messed up
Settling down in your early twenties
Sucked more blood than a backstreet dentist

It don't matter to me
It's all I wanted to be
It's a million miles from here
Somewhere more familiar

Oh my god, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

Great rulers make for greater glory
The only thing growing is on this story
Knock me down I'll get right back up again
It comes back stronger than a powered up Pac-Man

It don't matter to me
It's all I wanted to be
Is a million miles from here
Somewhere over there

Oh my god, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

Oh my god, I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home
And Oh my, god I can't believe it
I've never been this far away from home

Cultura Mexicana

E aqui fica um pedaço de cultura popular mexicana:

In Mexico, if the driver of an approaching vehicle bites his index, middle and ring fingers, other drivers know there is a traffic policeman nearby.

The boredom of a sober week
The weekend's here
Hip-hip-hooray
To make the blues
Just go away


Entertain me

Bloc Party - Banquet

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I can give you life, I can take it away

A heart of stone, a smoking gun
I'm working it out
Why'd you feel so underrated?
Why'd you feel so negated?

Turning away from the light
Becoming adult
Turning into my soul
I wanted to bite not destroy
To feel her underneath
Turning into the light

She don't think straight
She's got such a dirty mind and it never ever stops
And you don't taste like her and you never ever will
And we don't read the papers, we don't read the news
Heaven's never enough, we will never be fooled

And if you feel a little left behind
I will see you on the other side

Cos I'm on fire
I'm on fire when you come

I'm on fire so stub me out

Esta musica é fixe. Acho que ainda não o tinha dito. Mas é. E muito. Assim tipo imenso. É imensamente cool.

Reservoir Dogs



Joe: Hey, who didn't throw in?
Mr. Orange: Mr. Pink.
Joe: Mr. Pink? Why not?

Pen Spinning

If you have been in a classroom for years, you may have seen Pen Spinning in action, even though you (and possibly the person doing the trick) may not be aware that it is an art form. But what could one possibly do with a simple object such as a pen?
