New Photos at my Flickr

My new photo session with these two girls and a woman friend of mine is complete at my flickr www.flickr.com/photos/filipetorres

I don't like it

Why we need to work so hard? I want to take a job that gives me time for personal matters. I want to work to live and not live to work...

I'm have been working since 40 days including weekends for 12hours a day, but I'm not working so hard as my peers, they are working since 80 days for 18 hours a day. A very close friend told me that working like that explains why I'm still single, that's true... And I need to stop this, ‘cos I have the worse head pain in my life one month ago just because I’m not working so hard :) And maybe it may sound that I want to have more money right? But I prefer my rest time instead.

The world drives us crazy, but we have the True, the Way and the Life… We need to watch out and take care with ourselves, letting God protect us. When God don’t protect us? When we decide to do our very will. God! Protect me from myself!Maybe photography is a getaway…. Today is September 29, 2008. My photography course will start October 1… this will be my October Fest hehehe Just the joy of learning photography, I don’t have alcohol.

So I’m a programmer with more than 10 years of experience, and I was used to have a hobby. A single hobby that has started when I was 6yo, the very age I have started to learn computers. But now I’m trying to handle something quite different… I’m learning piano… Ok… maybe some friends already knows about that, but I have a keyboard and I’ve decided to buy a Piano… But I need to think about that, ‘cos its quite expensive… and I do know that this will lead me out of the computer when I’m at home and also release my stress and make me feel better. Why Brazilian schools can’t have pianos to teach? Is it so expensive to a private school? I don’t think so… But I think the matter is that we don’t have a culture, a solid tradition, we are not used to sang our very Hymn…

No one likes the government here, ‘cos everyone knows that there’s no one able to do just good things there… in fact I’m using soft words, they all rob public money, and sometimes the journalists publish that, but ends in pizza… (“to end in pizza” means that an unsolved problem ended, has been folded with no guilty, normally when the guilty guy has paid some illegal fee to the police or other superior in the government…).

Why I’m talking about the government and not about me? ‘Cos this makes me feel disgusted about my country, but we have to pray about that. And in fact my church was the first one to went the government and have a song played there (that longs for 15 minutes), and they prayed there and many good things has happened after that… like discovering many bad acts… So pray can make a difference.

So, that (as they say) is that.

Now I'm really blogging...

BLOG’s... why do I need it for? In the beginning I was scared about Blogs that was going to be an opened diary… But everything depends on what you put on it. With newspapers it seems to be alike… the cops doing an investigation has some clues and facts, and the journalists ask a lot about it… It’s up to the cops to give or not any information. Sometimes sharing is useful… And why am I telling about this? ‘Cos I just realized that giving away some facts about my self for the whole world is not that bad, people may care about you and not only your closest friends.

So, today is Monday in the second week working at my city and this is so good to be able to walk away at places that I do know so well. I can go to the doctor whenever I want, change anything with my bank account manager when I can’t do it by phone or web… So, living here is as good as it gets… but… one thing is bugging me…

I worked for a bit more than a month at Campinas and I started dating a girl, and I was very afraid of it, I was afraid of this very thing that has happened… She lives, works and study over there… and I do my things now here… more than 600km far away, almost 400 miles… one hour by plane or eight hours by bus… OK no problem… I have the weekends to see her… Do I? What about she’s working also at the weekends… It is been hard to take, hard to believe… Looks like Romeo and Juliet… Or “A walk to remember”… I guess I’m been too dramatic… but it seems really to be this way…

So, I’m glad for such amazing things has been happening with me those days, but I’m very sure everyday I need to take care of more things and even more complex… I don’t like it so much… I wanna have fun… I wanna travel, meet people around the world, especially the ones I have met by the internet. At the top in this list I have Singapore, an amazing clean, green, secure, beauty, rich country… than Florida, at Orlando and Pensacola.

And last but not least, I am about to make a crazy thing… Afford a computer I have dreamed for a long while… the first one I’ve used at 1985 now is better than ever…

April 4 - 2008

Today I'm living the two last weeks traveling for business. This morning was great at breakfast, I've found some guys from a group with bible messages written in their T-shirts. So I asked one about what this was all about... after a few words he started to talk in Portuguese :D So funny, I became very surprised for that, for he speaks Portuguese better than me hehehe

My sin is always close trying to get me out of the way that I'm supposed to be (praising God and giving Him my best), I must not trust in my flesh, for when I'm up that's when I need to take care to be up and not fall down once again. May I keep the faith and it becomes as stronger as never before and also that I obey every God's command to be sanctified by the word of God that is the only way to be clean. I want to chose the best way (Jesus) for life.
