I was supposed to be on my way to a disco now... Unfortunately, my car didn't star. I don't know what's wrong with it... :( I really want to cry! Fortunately, my friend is going to pick me up, but we won't make it on time to the 50% discount... we have to be there before midnight and she lives about 30mins from here... naah, it won't happen. I was supposed to pick her up and then we would be there just in time. *sigh*

Anyway, I just hope I meet some friends and have some fun there!

This is a picture that was taken at the Pinacoteca of Sao Paulo. It was a weird iron structure... I just like the colours and the texture of the rusty iron. :D

Today's Dinner

Well well well, it seems that I can't stop flickring neither blogging... This is what I've had for dinner today.

Actually, it's a ready souce. A Mentaiko souce. I really love it. I had to buy this souce when I was in NYC because I couldn't find it here in Brazil. I used to eat lots of Mentaiko pastas when I was in Japan and I was dying for some Mentaiko for a while. hehe.

Unfortunately I didn't have spaguethi to go with the souce, but I found some Soumen. Thinking of it now... I wonder whether I can call this a pasta, it's probably more like noddles now. Everything is Japanese! the souce, the seaweeds, even the noddles :p

とてもおいしかった！

Playing with Picasa

Today, I was editing some of my pictures from my trip to China in 2004. Unfortunately, my camera was kind of broken and all my daylight pictures were overexposed. The weather was so great! I wish my camera was working fine then. I didn't have a digital one, and my Fuji Tiara failed on me. So sad! Anyway, thanks to that, I was playing with Picasa today, and this is the result of that. I'm just a beginner hehe. But I think I'm having lots of fun!

I'll be posting more pictures of my trip in the next days. Take a look a flickr if you want to see them. www.flickr.com/photos/carolsawada

Have a nice weekend!

I'm in!

Yesterday, I went to FGV (Fundacao Getulio Vargas) to officialize my application to the Administration course. It's considered one of the best schools around here... I'm glad I got in. :D

I'm sure it's going to be a huge improvement in my CV, I just hope I can cope well, with school and work.

School sounds fun. Schedules, classes... (assingments, exams... hmmm) I might be changing my mind already ;)

When I was a Maiko...

I'm just kidding. I was looking for some old pics while I was cleaning my room today and I just found this picture that was taken 6 years ago in Kyoto.

I went to this studio and they dressed us like Maiko and took photographs in a professional studio. It was fun. I went there with 3 other friends.

I thought that dressing up and the make-up would take ages, but it was quite fast. It didn't take 30 mins for us to be ready for the photos. The problem was to take all the make-up off after the photos. Gosh, that white thing (shironuri) was really hard to get rid of. We used baby oil, to do that. 大変だった！

Unfortunately it was raining, otherwise, we could've gone for a walk in the old city of Kyoto.

I really like the red Kimono with the pink sakura flowers! :D
