casa da mabi

so. this morning i went up to pelo to finalise the apartment deal with cristeane. we chatted over coffee. i didnt want to leave because it was sprinkling. when the rain stopped, i returned to barra to quickly move from the dollhouse (12pm checkout) to my new casa.

the ocean looks marvelous from my big windows. the apartment smells like my great grandmother´s house. it has dark wooden floors. and some tiles in many places. some of them remind me of chickens, but i dont think the tiles actually have chickens on it. it is furnished. pretty plain.

my first task after cooling down was to strategically hide my valuables i.e. pile of very dirty clothes or in wrapped feminine products. lol!!!! i figure most thieves are men and they don´t like laundry or feminine products. the building itself is really secure. but you never know. gregor lives a few doors down. he might be a freak!!!

ah so. after dropping off my things i rushed back up to pelo for lunch with the ladies. two new people joined the group. two very arrogant american women who just are too important to talk about anything but themselves. ugh. then they left without eating. busters. i just mostly sat back and giggled here and there. i can´t stand those name dropping convos. when the busters left we got real and had a good time. no mention of the busters and how busterly they are. don´t get me wrong they are really smart and probably do really great things. but who likes braggards!?!

so. in the taxi on the way back to barra (well, shopping barra) i asked julietta what she does for a living. she had been very interested in me. so i wanted to show interest in her as well. why is she like a freaking super attorney in a big firm doing all kinds of amazing things!!!! aww. i turned into mousy mabi then. i started kissing ass and such. paid for the taxi. continued shopping although i am not a fan of shopping with others. asked questions. listened. now i am all self-conscious. wanting to sound smart because she could be a great resource. sigh. i hope she likes me. the best jobs matches come from personal connections.

tomorrow is yet another holiday. there have been three so far in my 2.5 weeks here. this one is supposed to be like carnival. but so are all the rest. i will meet O up in pelo around 12. later in the evening we plan to go out with cristeane. she is taking us to town so to speak. hol-la!!!
