June 21st!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!

Hello everyone!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! HEHE...
I thought this would be the worst birthday ever and actually it was. hahaha....just kidding!
Actually it was better than I expect, it was a little lonely, but it's okay. My parents couldn't call me because I put the wrong telephone number in my blog!

So, what I did! I went to the Olimpic Park where happened the Olimpic Games in 2000 here in Sydney, the place is pretty good. Huge stadiums and great views. Very nice walking. But when I was walking back home it was freezing cold and I kind of got lost. Then I met a chinese guy who is a cooker at the stadium, he was also lost. We started to find out how to get th right way. After a reasonable walk we found his car. He offered me a lift and I accepted of course. We had been walking for a few minutes and as I said it was vey cold. He was very kind and drove me to Mark's house.

We had dinner and after dinner I had a surprise from Mark's family! Colored birthday muffins!!!! hehe... Very nice! hehehe...
Ahhh, I haven't presented them. There they are.

From the left: Luci (Malvina's mother), Malvina (Mark's wife), Mark (Malvina's husband) and Camila (Mark and Malvina's kid). As I said before, they've been very kind with me. I feel like they are angels that God sent to help me here in Sydney! Nice family! I wish all the best for them! And Little Camila is so cute. hehe...

This was it! My first Birthday overseas!
But it's not all! I've received God's present!
Today we attended to Mark and Malvina's church and guess what? I might got a place to live! Tomorrow I'll be visiting the place to have a look!
Thanks Lord for this and for you guys who have been prayng for me! Thank you!!!
Now it is the end of this post!
Ahhh, by the way, Sydney is becoming better!!!
Bye!!!

Transition

Hello everybody!!!

I’m in Sydney already. But let’s start from when I was in Brisbane.

It was quite sad to say good bye be to people that I started to like. On Sunday the pastor prayed for me and gave me an Evangecube, when I’m back I can show you. It was good, I felt really blessed for have met that church. So, on Monday we had a kind of farewell party with my schoolmates, I wasn’t really in the mood, but we did and it was great to meet then for the last time. We had much fun and a lot food also.








Well, on Tuesday, I woke up very early to say good bye to my roomies and also because the pastor would pick me up 7:30. He gave me a lift to the train station and my friend James helped me to carry my luggage, which was not few.

Since I left Brisbane, I’ve met some interesting people. In the airplane I sat next to five guys, who are part of the Australian Olimpic Soccer Team, one was the captain, called Dave and the other was the left midfield called Markson. Obviously, I took a photo with them, otherwise you wouldn’t believe me, would you? The guys in the photo is Markson, the left midfielder, he plays for Queensland Roar here.

On Wednesday, I went to the city by a two floors train, very good idea for Sao Paulo. Sincerely, my first impression from Sydney, it was not that good, the city is very crowded and a little dirty compared with Brisbane. I don’t know if it’s me or the air here is quite polluted. So, I went to my new school and my agency here, nothing special about them. My school looks good and in the they gave me some advises to get a job and a place. Now, I have to find a place to live and of course a job. Hopefully I’ll get them soon. As I said before I've met some internting people here and yesterday when I was going back I was a little lost to find the bus. Then one guy was at the bus stop, he helped me to find the bus. We started to talk, he asked me where I wer e going and so on. Then he told me, he was going to the prison, that he worked at the day and went back to sleep in the prison. I have nothing against this people, but indeed, it was a quite unusual situation. I asked why he was in jail and he told me because fraude. We talked further for a few minutes and I got off the bus.

Ahhh, I was forgetting, I’m living with Mark’s family for a few day. They are being very kind with me. After I will send a photo with them and I can tell who is who.

Okay, I hope things get better here!

See yaa guys!

Finally VICTORY!!!


Hey guys!
I mentioned before that I was playing in the fifth division here, didn't I?
So, now I can post a photo of the team because we finally won a game! hahaha...
We beat the other team by 6-2, unfortunatelly I didn't scored but I give two assistants and suffered a penalty.
From the left to the right: Chester, Cam, Jordan, Captain Jason, Junior (me), Charles, Luke, James, Darren, Nick and Adrien. We had anothers players but they didn't come on this glorious day! haha...
Other thing that I forgot to mention, I found "farofa" here, very expensive guys!
I'm finally graduated in my school!! hehe...
And as I said before, I'm heading to Sydney tomorrow (Tuesday).
Perhaps today, we are gonna have a kind of farewell.
It's sad to say good bye to people here and look the time running so fast, but I realised one thing. The faster the time runs here, the faster I will go back and meet you guys!!!
The experience is really amazing, but I do not feel at home here. I think one year away is more than enough!
So, next post is gonna be from Sydney! okay!!
see yaaa!!!

Moving on!!!


HEY GUYS!!!
This is my friend John, he lived with us till last week. Now, he must be in Colombia already!
So, I posted some pics of my cool old house in the orkut if you wanna see, please check it out!
As my title say, let's move on. I'm going up to Sydney next week, probably on Tuesday. I'll stay in Denis's friends house for a few day, till I find some place to live. Im very anxious for this, it'll be a new beggining and I do hope to find a jog down there and give a rest for my parents. hehe...
I'm good here, I think if I could I'd go back after this course in Brisbane, but I also thank because I bought this other course in Sydney, now I can't flee of it!
okay?
thanks for all prayers!
see yaa!

First Stage finishing


Hey people!!!

How are you guys?

This photo, we were in the top of a mount near here, the view from there is wonderfull!
So, things has changed here. My roomie went back last week, the colombian guy who lives with us also is leaving this Saturday and one guy already came to replace. I haven't met him very often, but he is here for about 2 months, like me. And I'm finishing my course here in Brisbane by the next week, so this first stage is always complete! hehe...
I'm trying to enjoy and take an advantage in this time here. It's been pretty good so far, but i reckon it could be better if I hadn't live with brazillians. So, my first goal when I turn up to Sydney will be find a international share house and a job! hehehe...
I'm very glad for the churches I've been here, and so thanks for all greeting I've received.
I've made loads of friends and known other cultures.
Time to go now, see yaa!!!
