...plan B

So this weekend my lovely sister Virgínia and her husband wanted to take me to Búzios and Arraial do Cabo - two beach resort towns that I love so much but our plans were ruined when it started pouring rain...
So we decided to postpone out lit trip and instead of me getting upset I actually will try to enjoy the fact that I am trapped home. So the plan B is:

1. get cozy

2. drink tea

3. work on my sketchbook

4. practise what I am learning at photograph class (taking classes with Fabio Kotinda)

5. watch movie(s) from bed

6. eat brigadeiro (learn how to make my favorite desert here)...

7. miss my boyfriend

8. and think a lot about where life is taking me... (do I want to go back to LA? Is it time to give a shot to the east coast? Will NY treat me well? And what about Miami? What job should I take next? Should I go back to school? etc etc etc)

I wish you all a lovely weekend!
Much love from a raining Rio de Janeiro...

  1. You have a lot to think about!!!!!!! So you aren't even sure you are want to go back to the west coast? Be sure before you make such a big move. Your weekend of just "chilling" sounds wonderfully relaxing. We had a very late wedding last night..and I am just relaxing right now, so tired but its nice to just be doing nothing. I love and miss brigadeiro...brings back such fond memories!!!! The first sweet I ever ate in Rio...at a classmates birthday party!! Relax and enjoy the rain, they make the best excuses for staying inside and thinking about life and trying to figure things out:)

  8. Well plan b sounds divine! I love being all cozy and drinking tea and watching movies or sketching!
    I hope you realize what the next steps in your life should be. I know I'm in the same boat right now. Trying to figure out where I should work next. Should I move? Should I do this or that? It is confusing!
    I am sure whatever you choose, you will be excellent in it!
    Have a wonderful weekend! xo

  13. Oh my, so much to think about! I swear whenever it rains, that's when I do most of my thinking (and eating and drinking as it turns out). By the way I love that quote about dancing in the rain. All the best to you!
