My finger

One day, in a Saturday morning, my dad asked me If I wanted to buy some bread with him and my brother . Almost every Saturday, I just stay locked in my own house, so I imediately accepted. Almost every time, I drive my bicycle wearing tennis, but in that day,I was lazy to wear my tennis, so I took my flip flops. Behind the bakery there is a ramp, that me and my brother use to play.
In that morning I took impulse in the ramp and went down the street with the bike. But bicycle 's brake wasn't working well so I had to stop the bike with my foot. To my horror, I had my finger hurted In the moment I saw the blood, I paniqued.

After cleaning the wound and putting a remedy on it, the worst weekend of my life started. That's just like everybody says: It never rains, but it pours; Monday I had to go up and down the stairs 3 times in the school, my mom's car broke so I had to go by foot to my grandmother's home. Tuesday I had to go by bus to the school. Luckily every cloud has a silver lining, After starting to use a remedy that a friend of mine told me about, my finger started to get better
In the end I really think that I have created a storm in a teacup, my finger still getting better, and my mum's car is still broke, so I think I don't have time to rest! I really need my finger well!

Surprise test !!!


Today, I woke up thinking it would be a normal day like all others but was not as normal as I expected.
I went to college as usual and when I got her something different was happening would have a surprise test and the notes would come out the same day and this note would make students pass a grade. I auditioned a big test of about forty questions was a hard test but I thought I had taken a good note, so far lacked wait another hour to learn the notes I had taken. There I spent an hour and all the class we were anxious to know our note then the results are in the room and I really had not gone well, I had been placed last among the top ten and maybe not pass the other students who were among the twenty last were making a storm in a teacup because they already had in years past but I was past ten and uncertainty but there is always a light at the end of the tunnel and to my luck the prefessores decided to give the final grades and say who really had changed from year, and to my luck I'd spent with a good note because in other periods I had gone well, I finally had a good weekends and quiet.

Bad things come in threes, fours, fives...

I intended to have a peaceful break last July. However, things didn't happen exactly the way I planned.

I went to my mum's house in Resende, a small in the countryside in Rio de Janeiro. On my way to Resende, it rained a little, but continuously. When I was almost getting there a huge truck which was in front of me poured loads of water on my car. There was a strange noise but at that moment it seemed to be nothing important.

My mother, my kids and I arrived there, greeted everyone and tried organize our stuff.

I spent two days literaly walking around; so my car was parked in front of my mum's. Two days later I had to take the car because I had to take my son's car seat to be repaired and there was a quite big crack on my windshield (the front glass of the car). I had to have it repaired too, but I needed to talk to my husband about it.

When I told him I would have to replace the windshield, he seemed so calm that I thought I was dropping a storm in a glass of water.

However, he got a bit stressed because he imagined I had got envolved in a car crash and his blood preasure quickly went up, forcing him to go to the ER at Amil.

Needless to say I had to come back to Niterói to check on him, and left my kids with my mum, in Resende. I stayed here for three days, and then went back to Resende to have the car repaired and pick up my boys.

After the guy had replaced the glass, he drove to my mum's to give me the car back. On his way he crashed into a very old Chevette and destroyed my car's right back door. I had everything packed to come to Niterói right away!!

So I thought to myself... it never rains but it pours!!!

My bad day!

Last week, I woke up to late to go to school and I was feeling a bit under the weather. I've got a headache the entire night, but my mother said that I can't miss the class because I have a really dificult test so I went school. When I got there my teacher gave me the test, it was too big and dificult, I did only a few questions!
When I arrived home, I did my big homework and after that I went to my tennis class. My teacher, named Jorge, and I were stretching ourselves when I felt down and sprained my wrist! What a bad lucky! I stayed my afternoon at the doctor to put a bandage, it was so boring! :(
Finally, I went home and slept the all night and day long, because my mom allowed me to miss the class on the folowing day! Every cloud has a silver lining! :)
