Ok, it's hot. Like REALLY damn hot. It was in the upper 90's on Tuesday. And school requires us to wear pants as part of the uniform. That was miserable. However, I have discovered a new source of humor: Brazilian shirts with phrases in English. From these you get such gems as "Great Pleasure for Clever People"(and that's all it said. Just a white sweatshirt with that in the middle), or how about "Urban Streetwalker"(Abaeté is too small for a Red Light District so you have to get shirts that advertise it now?) or try this one on for size "Glorious Activity"(uhh....which activity is that, again?). I suspect the Japanese find such entertainment in those American shirts with kanji on them. Also, the title for the Alfred Hitchcock thriller Psycho was translated as O Homem Que Matou a Própria Mãe (The Man Who Killed His Own Mother (A bit of a plot spoiler, don'tcha think?)). Anyways, nothing particularly wild or crazy has happened of late, just the usual trecking back and forth from school, swimming at the club, and going to the academia (gym) three times a week.
