I've been absent, out, off, somewhere, travelling in a brand new galaxy. Slightly feeling guilty, eagerly desiring to be a wrongdoer. Nothing compares to the feeling of being amidst the dark, softly rubbing the stars, flying around the universe.
It's summer here and doing justice to the main idea about Portugal (from people who don't know nothing about it or almost nothing) it's pretty warm here, our long coastline invites everyone to get a tan and have fun in the freezing water of the Atlantic. I must be fair, I remember how warmer the water used to be when I was a child, now it's such a thermal shock when we finally reach the water an full of expectations (obviously only for seconds, we know it is freezing) we stretch our tip toe to the water. After some lamentations and "oops and ouchs" we finally are jumping into the water and playing like kids and forget who is watching because everyone is actually doing the same.
Besides that, there have been a lot of work, not so much free time as desired and I've been trying to catch up with reading and writing. I'm somehow submerged into Murakami's A Wild Sheep Chase, and luckily, soon finding the end of the chase for such sacred and hidden animal. Also, I have been reading a biography of José Saramago, released to celebrate one year passed after his death.
I wished summer could last forever, at least if Autumn doesn't come any more as it used to be, could at least summer stay longer? Winter is so depressing and blue... please mister Summer, stay for a longer time! Please!
No. I've just been busy feeling useful to no one else than myself, living, breathing, watching around and perhaps, sometimes, smiling. Where's your heart anchored? What are you doing now or planning to do?

Oh dear! Time is indeed flying! I noticed that we haven't talked for a while, but it's ok, because I feel you in my heart ^.^ I'm also rather absent from internet things, I suppose I need to re-arrange some things in my life... I have been offered quite a chance by someone else and I've offered a chance to my own self... there are no big changes right now, but I see things in a different light... I'm a bit afraid to admit it, in case it will turn out as some mirage, but I somehow believe that I slowly regain my energy after the graduating period... I feel like working and being active...
Awww, from what you write I can literally feel the salt on my skin, I wish I could jump into the sea once more... Unfortunately it looks like I won't be able to do so anymore this year, even if I'll be at the sea later... But you are right, I am happy about every sunray, about every day I survive without a coat and with flip-flops and I wish it would last forever... Right now our uni has a lot of celebrations and activities, everybody looks cheerful and lively ~ and of course there are hoards of tourists around... I almost feel the arteries of the city swell with blood, its lungs pumping the fresh air!
I think after a great summer however, autumn maybe won't be that depressing, this is what I hope at least... it becomes harder and harder for me to fight the blues...
I'm looking forward to reading something nice and inspiring... the last two books I've read were absolute nonsense...
Have fun with Murakami ^^ When we were in Cataluna he just got some award there ^.^
Blueberry kisses, xx
I have been feeling just the same way. Blogging is the last thing on my mind as we wonder around the globe this year. Barbados to Costa Rica and now in Montreal (home) for a month and then I think we will road trip it to the west coast of Canada to get some beach/mountain time in.
I wish summer would last forever as winter is so grey here that I wish I was a bear and could sleep through it.
I hope your adventures are wonderful and you are feeling inspired wherever you go.
Much Love,
Crystal
