    today was one of those days that really demanded a bath. i've spent the past week working on papers for university and i serioulsy got to the point where the only thing that could save my sanity was a good warm bath. and how it felt good. and how much are baths underrated. for the last months, uni has been crazy, therefore everytime i steped inside the tub i just thought, this has to be quick, just wash quickly, dry your hair and get back to work/doing dinner/cleaning the house/go grocerie shopping, whatever. everything came first. but today. oh today. today i said to myself. oh no, you are going to relax and take deep breaths and immerse yourself in the lovely water drops that will fall from your shower. and so i did. and just how relaxing it feels to just be standing there and feeling water coming down your whole body. i felt renewed.i felt revigorated. i felt alive. this wonderfull feeling of intense serenity just surfaced from within.

    "Change your underwear at least twice a week, chew your food thoroughly, wipe front to back, measure twice and cut once, leaves of three, let 'em be! Leave of four... you get the idea."

    thank you for the marvelous advices which cannot be remembered enough, and allow me to take up the chance to advice the following: if you haven't showered yet these past few weeks, it is time to do so and scrub well! Eye-wink

    the video is almost as adorable as the sweet little puppy, the slender white kitty and the awesome little person with half of Jose's genes. Smiling

    lots of love to all, have yourselves a merry little time and an even greater new year's eve. it is always a great time to put things in perspective,

    a tight hug from Portugal,

    I don't want to rate it. Rating music doesn't quite work for me, so i'll just show my appreciation through words and let others deal with the quantifications. the first album i heard was S.C.I.E.N.C.E and it was through my older brother, i guess i was about 12 or 13, going through some tough times and searching for an escape. I liked it then, and i kept on listening to the band, and though Incubus was not on my top list of favourite bands then, it always stuck around. as i got older and kept on falling back to your albuns i kept on discovering new layers. listening to you over the years has become adictive and so pleasurable. there are unexplainable reasons to why we love what we love or to why we connect so deeply to some things and to others not so much, so i'm not even going to try to put it into words.
