Me and the Taxi Drivers

2008-11-09T23:26:00.004-07:00

I really don't know what's wrong with me, really, why the taxi drivers never, ever, can find my house? Like, it's not too complicated, o, maybe it's because is 3:30 in the morning - o, ya, I have to be at work 4, so - anyhow, it's a nightmare! And when they find my house, is... another nightmare.
As soon as I say the adress they ask: Are you going home? And I: NO! I'm going work! And they: Is a bakery? Ooo ya! A delicous bakery! Then they ask where I'm from, and when I say from Brazil, they think this is awesome! And I think is funny. The majority of the taxi drivers are from India, and they think our accent is sexy. Sexy!? Anyways...
One, especially, was from Paquistan, and the found my house, was good, he ask me a lot of question, but was fine. At the end of the trip, he give his number, so I can call him every day, so he can pick me up. So I did in the other day, everything was fine, but got my number, when I called him, and the nightmare started. He started call me every day, like 3 or more times a day, send me menssages, and I was afraid because he knew where I work, where I live, and my name! O, godness. He said: Ican pick you up when you finished if you want, go buy groceries, and these things. And I didn't know what to do. I told about these with my co-workers and they thought was funny, and I thought was scary! Then, one day I arrived at work and one of the girls said: "You not gonna believe! You know who pick me up today? Ya, the Paquistan guy! And he talked about you all the way, said that you have a beautiful voice, have style, you are cute, beautiful, nice." And I said: "Man! Nobody is beautiful 3:30 in the morning!!!!"
Anyhow, and he continued call me, and I send him a mensage like this: "CAN YOU PLEASE STOP CALL ME?? I DON'T KNOW YOU AND I DON'T WANT YOU CALL ME ALL THE TIME!"But he didn't stoped. I called the company. And the people said that next time I should call the police. O, ya, meet the cops is gonna be a GOOD ideia!

Who want to marry Juliana?

At work:

Everybody wants to find a husband for me, I said EVERYBODY! The managers of my job, in my second day: “So, do you have a boyfriend?” and I: “No...”, “Ok, we gonna find one for you! What kind do you want?” (Like: “Do you want brownies or apple pie? ”) Then, they finally decided that a fireman or a cop it’s gonna be GOOD for me. That’s all right! Couple weeks after, they came to me and said: “We find the perfect guy for you.” And I confess I was happy and worried about their decision, then they said that he’s middle 30 and have two sons. Sorry, but I don’t want to be a stepmother.

At Winners:

We were walking around looking for boots and coats (yes, now I want boots not Havaianas), and this lady turned to me and said: “O! Is this your daughter?” and I: “No, i’m her niece.”, And the lady: “How old are you?” “21.” “I have one son that has your age, he works and goes to university, and comes every Sunday to have dinner with us, here it’s my phone number and my e-mail, call me, you can come one Sunday to meet him.” You know, I’m afriad of this moms that wants to find a girl for their sons, I think he’s a nerd!

At the cab:

This one is a really looooong story. (Next post I promisse!)

And you? Do you want to marry Juliana?

Time for Change.... AGAIN!

O, well, I don't have a lot of time to write here, but I try, not hard enough, but i tried. Abou my life? Crazy for Crave! Working at Cookies and Cupcakes Store. I just love it, I always wanted to do this, now I'm doing, and I'm happy! =) The past 2 weeks I was working 4 in the morning until noon, was really good, I was going to the gym too, but I'm still too lazy...

Couple weeks ago, a Brazilian guy was shot in downtown. He's blind now. Just one more sad situation in the world. The guy who shot is in jail now. "Justice".

The fall arrive, the cold weather too. Not too cold, not too warm.
Thanksgiving is coming! Turkey and punpikin pie! Sooooo good!!!!!!!!!!

That's it.

Without title

S, I'm here, in my bedroom, today I had job, nothing too special, but I was thinking about life, love and career, and I still don't know what I want to do for the rest of my life. I really don't know. I'm unsecurity, but happy.

I think that's it for today.

Brazilian girl

I think the title says a lot: A Brazilian girl in Canada. I've been here for almost 3 months, and I just love it! It's so nice, I'm in Calgary, the weather here is so crazy, changes all time, my uncle said: If you don't like the weather, wait half an hour! It's so diferent from Brazil, you know, you have more oportunites here, to get a job and to b happy. It's a cultural shock when you arrive, and I think will be another shock when I go back to Brazil, but I don't want to think about this now.

So, today, that's it. I will try to blog every day.

PS: Sorry for my English, itsn't perfect yet, should be some mistakes, but it's ok right?
