Old new series.

Sometimes I get a little melancholic and either watch old movies that have some kind of meaning to me or go back to old series.
Everytime I watch it, it is like I reconnect with who I was and who I am now. At the same time, things that I thought I understood back then, I realise it had different meanings but, more than that, I see that they are more accurate to the present than ever.
Or maybe it is just the time I'm living at this age, which can now be more similar to the characters in there.


A while ago, I watched all seasons of Sex & the City and I could identify myself or others, moments and thoughts or behaviours with the life those characters were living. And it was so funny because I could remember things I thought I forgot and it was like I could understand my own life better.
I really think this series shows the reality in London at the present. It might be that New York was actually ahead in time when compared or maybe London has been like this since back then - 20 years ago - as well.
History does say our society lives through cycles and that's why some events tend to repeat itself over and over again.
Then I moved on to Friends. In a different story line, this series shows a lot of what I see in my friends' life at the moment and mine too. Even the falling in love for a very good old friend. 
I know it is just a coincidence made from common places and behaviours that happen in almost everyone's Life. But it is good to see our own thoughts and attitudes in others because it makes us think about it in a different perspective and we can all learn from it.
I think the only thing I don't get to feel much of a connection is with the characters sense of fashion - even some of the shoes Carrie wore were pretty awful and Phoebe's outfits were hilarious - but I guess that was a different time.

How about you, which were the tv series or movies that represent a time of your Life?

Have a good night!

September, my dear.

I had an amazing weekend planned about which I was going to talked about in here today.
But that did happened. My weekend was ok, although had nothing major worth talking about in here.
So, instead I will just tell about some random things that have been in my mind.
Most people consider or sees January as the time to make all big plans and future resolutions for the rest of the year. Me, otherwise, always felt September was the month to make changes and somehow it does make a lot of sense to me.
It came from my school times - after the big holidays, when I was at my happiest and full of all that amazing energy that the Sun and the Sea combined with the summer adventures with friends and family had put in me. And then it was time to start school, new books, new clothes, new people and sometimes even new schools. Everything seemed so exciting and I could not wait to start (good old days!).
Anyway, after finishing my studies I kept that feeling that September was "my January". This year I didn't had much time to think about it because all of a sudden I had all this unplanned changes happening and it took me a while to actually process all of it.
I guess it was only when I came back from holidays almost 2 weeks ago that I started to deal with the changes and started making all these resolutions to myself.
And they all go back to the same major resolution that I seem not to be able to fight for it and as a results it ruins all the others. But I do not give up and this time, once again, I will care more for myself and put Me as the most important person in my Life.
It is sad to me to realise that I have not achieved this one yet. I tend to tell other people to do that for themselves and have failed in every single aspect of my Life to do it for me. There is always a reason, a person or whatever for me to use as an excuse but I am determined to make it stop now.
So that is my big "New Years resolution" - ME - and with that I believe I can achieve all my other goals, one step at a time.

This is not meant to be a sad post or anything as such, but just a statement that will motivate me, by putting it out to everyone, and maybe others who need that extra push to believe, love and fight for themselves.

Enjoy your night and have a great week!

Almost there.

So, I know it has been a long time since last time, but the wait is over. From next Sunday, I will be back to this blog, posting at least twice a week and giving you all the latest news about anything that crosses my mind.
And now, just to thank you for keep coming here, please enjoy the pictures I took of the this amazing sunset, which was in a little place called Odeceixe in Algarve, Portugal - it is more than worthed to visit.





 Have a great week!
