London 10/01/1990 Wednesday David has vanished since the 4th. What the hell??? What is he doing? He’s in big trouble if I ever see him again. The English course started yesterday at the ILEA in Soho. Can you believe there’s a French girl in my class also called Leticia (well,…
London 16/12/1989 Saturday
London 16/12/1989 Saturday Today Carmen, Isabel, Joel and I went to see an exhibition of 150 years of photography. Very good! Marcos, Leda and their little boy also turned up. Half way through they announced it was closing in 15 minutes, so we just rushed through for the second half.…
BSB 18/09/1987 Saturday
BSB 18/09/1987 Saturday Thursday me and Alessandra skipped school and went to Sigma. But the doorman knew me (as I’ve been there twice before and was chatting to him) and wouldn’t let us in. So we went around the back of the college, jumped the fence, walked across the PE…
BSB 20/12/86 Saturday
BSB 20/12/86 Saturday Hi!!!! I went to the club on Thursday and Friday, and I have a nice tan! In the afternoon Renata called Andre to her flat, to tape some of his records. Andre and I argued like cat and dog (I used to be his girlfriend!). He’s so…
BSB 27/11/1986 Thursday
BSB 27/11/1986 Thursday On Tuesday I went to 108 and saw Henrique. He’s making me hate him though. I called him yesterday and he was being a dick. He said he’d come here today at three to help me with Physics. But he said it with a pervy voice, like…
BSB 23/11/1986 Sunday
BSB 23/11/1986 Sunday I went to Assefe on Saturday and then Vizinhanca on Sunday. Henrique was there today. So good to see my beloved. But that club is so busy! The pool is dirty, I can’t even swim in it. When I was leaving, and thinking Henrique had gone, he…
BSB 21/11/1986 Friday – Rampant inflation
BSB 21/11/1986 Friday – Rampant inflation You won’t believe what the government has done. Raised petrol prices by 60%, alcohol (fuel) by 40%, drink and smoke by 100% and they say the salaries will only go up when overall inflation reaches 20%. As they calculate the inflation any way they…
BSB 14/11/1986 Friday
BSB 14/11/1986 Friday Henrique was in my dream. We went to school together, and when we were going to cross the road, a car came, and he held my hand. I asked to see his tattoo and it looked amazing. Frustrating. It’s the second time I dreamt we are going…
BSB 10/11/1986 Monday
BSB 10/11/1986 Monday On Tuesday I went to the tattoo shop and Henrique was there, getting a tattoo done. A horse with wings. A Pegasus of life… On his shoulder blade, on the back. Yesterday Renata, Paulinho, Guiga, Alexandra, Marquinho and I went to Paulinho’s small farm: Lua De Mel,…
BSB 11/10/1986 Saturday
BSB 11/10/1986 Saturday It’s been a while, no? I’m going to write less now as I’m only a month away from the end of classes. The exams will be rushed as this bimester will be a short one. I called Henrique on Thursday and we talked for a bit.
