fuwa fuwa fu!

Today was definetly an energy-less day. After the concert and everything that I went to last night, I feel as if I'm going to die. It was so hot, and I was so hungry, and I was sweating liters at a time, and I also had one mother of a headache. Yet, it was still really cool. I went to Westborough, which is pretty far away...so that I could see Harmonia do Samba!! Xandy was so cute, even though he did get a little bit fat. But I'll back up. Harmonia do Samba is a samba group from Brazil, who's main singer is this guy named Xandy. (Say it with me now, shan-GEE.) Anyway, I went to see them, and the concert was excellent. The dancing and music was definetly fun. I only saw one other American girl there, but that was okay...I'm used to being the strange one in a group by now. I didn't get home until around 1:00 last night, and I was just dying to eat something and take a shower. I did see the fabulous fireworks in Boston and then we went to the beach for a while, and then we went to Burger King, but I wasn't about to eat that nasty shiz. It was still 86º at 1:00 in the morning. That is crazy. I think it reached 102º yesterday.

Today I did nothing. I tried to write some thank you cards from my graduation party, but that wasn't really happening. I drove Carla to work at 3:30. Umm...my mom took me and Kat out to eat around 7:30, which was nice. After that we went to visit Jessie, because she's leaving for London tomorrow. She'll be there for a month, taking a course for school. I know that she'll have fun, but she's going to miss her boyfriend a lot. Still, she'll be FINE. I wish that I was going to London for a month. But then again, I would miss my family a lot, and most of my friends. I still want to do study abroad for a semester, but now that I've made better friends, I don't want to leave them. I know that they'll still be here when I get back, but I'll just miss them a lot.

In other news, another Brazilian music group is coming to play here, called Falamansa. They also have a few good songs that I like, such as 'Xote de Milagres', 'Fique a Saudade', and 'Xote de Alegria'. I wish that I could go to their show too. When I was at Carla's today, her sister said that Jeverson was a really big fan of Falamansa. SOOO, maybe if I express intrest in going to the show, he will come with me. That would be nice...<3 Still, it would suck to go to that show without someone to dance with, because all of the songs are partner dances. It's a type of music called forro, which I guess is the Brazilian equivalent of country music for us???? Actually, I'm not quite sure, so I'll shut up. But the types of dances that they do to these songs are so difficult. My xote is so ugly and messed up. I really need to practice, but I need someone to teach me as well. I finally got the basics of the samba down, but now I'm having a little bit of trouble with the rest. And I do miss him a lot. I was feeling really bad today, thinking about how much I miss him. Just to see him and kiss him again would be really nice. I'll have to deliver the prom pictures to him soon so that hopefully I can see him.

Tomorrow I'm going with Kathleen to get a tattoo. I'm not getting one, but she needs moral support for when she goes. I told her not to do it, but she doesn't listen. When she is all old and saggy it's going to be so gross. But no, nobody listens to Amanda. Well, I'm sure it will be cute for the first few years that she has it. Still, I will be there to hold her hand as she is stabbed with needles and injecting pigments into her skin. It will be fun! But not really.

I'm starting to get really tired, so this is the end for tonight. I was just listening to this song, and they say "Fuwa, fuwa, fuwa, fuwa FOO!" in one part. It's so cute. Yes, that was random...but it was just so cuuuuute!

Ciao.
