Spotted: My Sister’s Sweet Visit (Film Edition)

January 17th, 2012

Meet Sheila, my big sister (big in a sense of older, not pregnant, sis!)
She taught me everything I really needed to know. And she was only in 5th grade at the time.
True story.

Today we found out that my little niece is actually a nephew, and I could not be more pleased. I get to try spoiling a whole new gender! Oh the possibilities! Of course, I will have to step up my game and learn a few cool dude tricks, but he’s worth it.
The spot of coolest aunt around will still be mine. So buckle up all you aunts out there, cuz I’m in it to win it!

Spotted: Abi & Tyson (Purple Wedding)

January 11th, 2012

Just one more week, and I’ll be living in Paris.
I keep writing this down to see if it finally sinks in. But no, not yet.
Talk about bittersweet! I am so happy with the prospects of breathing/eating/sleeping/walking in such a wonderful city, but the thought of being so far away from those whom I love (AGAIN!) almost kills me.
Sure it’s only 12 weeks, and  sure I’ve been far from home (Brazil) for 4 years now and so should be used to the feeling of missing someone.
But no. I can’t and I won’t; it’s a fact.
Every single day it rips me apart. And every single day it will be that way. Even in Paris.
I need this, though. I need to be fueled up in hope, beauty, freedom. And I know I will find this there.
You just wait n’see.
