Friday 13th and other numbers

Today is Friday 13th and its funny how so many people dont like this day saying its a day of bad luck..........only because its Friday and the 13th day of the month lol

thanks God, ive not this superstition, as i dont have so many other superstitions, such as not opening umbrellas inside home, or avoiding to pass below a ladder or being afraid of black cats........oh my God what should i do because one of my cats is black? lol.........and i love her so much and she gives so much joys to me :-)


(Titó, my beautiful and lovely black cat)

but its funny because there is something i keep making, cant avoid that, its to knock on wood everytime people talk about things that im afraid it may happen, i know its so stupid but cant avoid that lol

but the Friday 13th i really dont mind about it, i even like the number 13, its a cool number, maybe my second favorite number, because my first one is the 8 :-)

i love the number 8 its the coolest of all, now please dont ask me why because i dont know why :-) i remember my 8th birthday when i received a yellow ball and i loved playing with it with my sisters lol......but i dont believe thats the reason, its a cool number all round, it recalls me a snowman, the zero is also round but its boring all equal but the 8 recalls the infinit, the 8 also includes all numbers in it, we can see that in a calculator, when theres no number in the little monitor, which number we can see there? the 8 and with it we can type all the other numbers, thats so cool!



8 is also the number that from 0 to 10 we can divide more times in equal parts, 8 we can divide in 8, in 4, in 2 and in 1, no other number has that privilege :-)

well, im not sure why i like so much the number 8, maybe i should prefer the 7, because my birthday its in July, the 7th month, and because the 7 is a number plenty of meanings, but dont know why i prefer the 8.......even in pool games my favorite ball is the black one with the 8 :-)



and why the icon of the "cool" is made with an 8? ------> 8-)

so today its Friday 13th and i must not forget to play the Euromillions, i hope it will give me luck :-)

(and as usual, one of my numbers will be the 8.......but today i will also chose the 13!)

wish me luck :-)

About the New 7 Wonders show

I havent written here yet about the wonderful event of the New 7 Wonders where i had the luck to be watching live :-)

i loved it so much, it was a show plenty of light and music and colour and visual effects and fireworks, it was a very special moment, plenty of emotion, those moments that are unique in our lives and that we will never forget.........

40 000 people in the Stadium and 1,6 millions spectators all over the world!

Portugal was chosen for this event because its considered a safe country with a stable politics, its known for organizing very well these kind of events, and because Portugal in the past had a main importance in the discovery of new lands all over the world......

thats why i feel so proud because i was born in a country that not only has great qualities as a country and as a people, but also it has such a great History :-) in the past we had the courage to go away to the sea and to go to far places where nobody has been before.......and during the trips we didnt know the dangers that were waiting for us........we have a very brave History :-)




in the first partof the show, it was the election of the portuguese 7 Wonders, and i must say ive voted in most of them :-)

here is the list:

Mosteiro de Alcobaça
(Alcobaça Monastery)

Mosteiro dos Jerónimos (Lisboa)
(Jerónimos Monastery-Lisbon)

Palácio da Pena (Sintra)
(Pena Palace-Sintra)

Mosteiro da Batalha
(Batalha Monastery)

Castelo de Óbidos
(Óbidos Castle)

Torre de Belém (Lisboa)

Don't think

Don't think
Don't think about things that hurt you
Don't think about how you are feeling right now
Don't think about where you would like to be now
Don't think about what you would like to be doing now
Don't think about the ones you love and you miss
Don't think about dreams you know they will never come true
Don't think about smiles you can't smile
Don't think about joys you can't have
Don't think about hugs you can't share
Don't think about anything that makes you suffer
That makes you cry

Don't think
Just try not to think
Even only for one second

...

Life is so wonderful now, isnt it?

Angels

...and when love...
...and when love is dead...
...and when love is dead, I'm loving...
...and when love is dead, I'm loving angels...
...and when love is dead, I'm loving angels instead...

I need my angels.....

where are they?

please dont leave me......

Anybody knows...?

Anybody knows the feeling that the sky is so blue and bright, the sun is so warm and nice, and suddenly, for some reason we ignore, theres a dark cloud that appears and it hides the sun behind it, and it insists in being there, the sky gets dark, so dark, and you feel cold, so much cold, as if everything inside your body and your soul had frozen?

anybody knows this feeling?

anybody knows the feeling that suddenly, for some reason we ignore, a big emptiness enters your heart, and you want to have positive thoughts but you simply cant have them, you feel your empty heart invaded by an enormous sadness and you cant avoid your tears?

anybody knows this feeling?
