Sneak a Peek III

" The survivors dove into the sunrise sharing stories, honoring the ones that weren´t there and especially the ones that didn´t survived. It was the beginning of the closure, because, they were properly saying goodbye. Xanthe leaned her head onto Cymone’s shoulder, when the moon faded into the sky: “Everything is going to be fine, isn´t it?” The Seamstress wrapped her arm around her nodded and received the first sunbeams on her cheeks. The flying ashes from the bonfire reflected in the open air communing with the rise of a new day. For Cymone, it was snowing light!" The Amazons RG

Nowhere Fast

    Hello to you all, from this cold and lonely afternoon. I´m thinking about changing this Blog name from Facepalm Life to Nowhere Fast, cause i am going dawn , and i'm going down fast as shit. This week was all about becoming a low life number on a multinational company instead of a professional, or even human, so the speak. I was actually advised by my superiors to don't care about what i was doing when i am at work. You know when you build something and all off your coworkers keep going up, but not you? Ladies and Gentleman we are in the 21st and i?m behind cause i'm a woman!      I praise to God to help me be at my best, so can find someplace, something to help grow and learn, and somehow this ignorant people could sometime miss the professionals they once had. So if someone, anyone is reading this blog with compassion, empathy and responsibility, help me find a good job.        I would love to kick out with "The Amazons" saga, it h...

Sneak a Peek II

"Phoibe, Phoibe who rests in the rosin of the night, Not knowing she shines so bright. If she got into the hunters kingdom she you’d see, How enlightened she could be. The stars of my love will guide Be careful not to leave its side." The Amazons RG

Oh Happy Facepalm day!

Guess what.... everybody got a raise at work, except me. You know when your a girl and get discriminated , and all turns into a snowball so you became a burden? Yep, that´s today's menu. Maybe that frustration made me write about an army on women, not men. But, most of all, the idea of a universe were people are valued for what they are, for what they do, weak or strong, allows me to escape from this cruel life I've been having. I can't catch a break and it doesn't matter how professional, how assertive, how dedicated you try to be. My difference from this girls, this stunning warrior girls, is that they had hope and courage and me, i'm here waiting to die so that i can have another chance, another life. Today is a special day, is epic, it's an epic day. For all those days , nights, hours, I've spend working, betting on that shit, teaching all the clowns that are happy today, everything is nothing. If we are evolving as specie, why do we still ...

Gym Misadventures

You know.... i love the gym but i never had a workout buddy, so end up feeling lonely and giving up. Most of the days i did some silly workout at home. Well, last year ,and finally when i actually had some leftover money i joined a new Gym. Yeah, Yeah leftover money. It's hard to remember those times where i had to steal a potato or two and a carrot, hidden in my socks, so i could have some kind of soup to eat when i got home. today, i get so stressed out when the fridge is empty, that is hard for me to balance end of the month , beginning of the month (payday).  Anyway, back to the gym, I've started out, you know, softing the land, they had the nerve to sell me a physical evaluation, that in most places are for free, adding a workout that you should follow according to your goals. My goals were to feel good, jump around, get stronger, but somehow everyone one there, including a personal trainer i had, could only understand the word fat, sedentary maybe, i really thought i w...

Invisible

        So, you no when you realize that you are probably invisible? Not that "boys don't like me" shit, or when the girl next to you on the crosswalk gets run-over  but you don't (true story), either. More like when you have everything figured out like making some money money selling things on eBay. Things that a lot of people look for, that usually the bid war is out of scale. Well, i get all excited, i do everything by the book, and .... not even a watch subscription. Probably what is going to happen to this blog too.  The first book i have written was published by a no name editor, that I've should figured that it wouldn't get me anywhere. Maybe, it is a good thing cause it was awful, but hey we have to start somewhere, right? My first lesson, so as you all probably realized by now, i'm Portuguese but my dream would be to publish in English, somewhere else in the world.   What actually makes it my baby is that I've created 12 different gi...

Sneak a Peek

"The walls were surrounded.  Never such a beautiful fortress brought the eminent smell of warm blood. The ruler Phytos gathered thousands of men, skilled warriors, mercenaries. The instructions were to terminate once and for all the Amazon tribe. The word was that in the four corners of the known world they were weak, they were an army that had a team of women coming and saving the day, when things got tough. In the end, nobody knew what was yet to come, what were the real intentions. Phytos had something planned." The Amazons 

All this for "The Amazons"

Please guys give me a break! You know when you have that awesome story, written somewhere, hidden on your darkest folders , so no one can take it from you? Well, that's "The Amazons". I keep reading that publishers 'loove' when you have some kind of a blog , so i thought to myself : I cant expose my book, who would buy it , if you could just read it here? But i could tell about it, do a little of copy paste and above all, the people that know me are perfectly convinced that i am able to fill pages and pages of bullshit. Pure gibberish . Off course, that i wont be that ungrateful to all of you that are willing share your precious time with me, so this is how its gonna be: I´ll try to tell some stories, Facepalm Stories, maybe even based on true events, and sometimes i'll leave some parts of the book, ill tell you all about my girls, and later on, when i get comfortable with this "blogging" thing, i'll open it so you can share ideas with m...
