Me, Myself and I



Hi everybody! Well… I’ve been delaying this moment, because I’m not that good talking about myself… But I have to, so here it goes!
My name is Sara Eichman, I’m 18 years old and I’m pretty short (1,55m), blonde, blue eyes… I’m friendly (at least I haven’t heard any complains), funny (love to make people laugh), very social and talkative (sometimes a little bit too much…). I’m also a little bit shy in certain occasions, pessimistic when I’m the subject, and very optimistic concerning others. I love to read! It’s one of my greatest passions. Another one is music! I couldn’t live without music, it would be sooooo boring! I like to dance (a lot really), love to spend time with my friends and, of course, with my boyfriend! I’m very stubborn and persistent, especially when I want something very much.
Well, enough talking about me. Let’s talk about where I live. I live in a little town, Amora, in the south side of the river (Tejo, of course). It’s a quiet place, generally… I enjoy living there. But it takes me more than an hour to get to the Faculty and that makes wake up soooo early!Hmm… I forgot to tell you about one of my loves! Sakura, my hamster! I got her because I saw her with two other hamsters that were harming her. So, I wasn’t able to leave her there… she was so cute (she still is), and she was suffering… And I took her with me! She’s so funny... she eats yogurt! I’ll leave you here a photo of her!
It’s bye bye time ok? Next time I’ll tell you more!

A Simple Man and a Simple Life

Hey everyone, my name's André (yet, another one! xD). I'm 19 years old and I'm from a little town called Carcavelos which is famous for its beach (which is "a must go" place for me in the Summer). I'm tall but I don't mind my height (1.82cm), brown hair, brown eyes and I hate brownies (joking hehe.. ^^)... I consider myself friendly, shy in certain situations, social and talkative if "you pull the string" (when will this guy ever shut up?), pessimist, realistic but creative, lazy, funny (true, true) and good company all-round (you forgot annoying).
I'm very fond of foreign languages, such as English, Spanish, and I'm regaining my confidence and taste for French once again (I used to hate it, now the only one I hate is German among the ones I studied so far...). I also seem to understand a bit of japanese (guess how) and like their culture. I like to travel, however I never been abroad (maybe someday, I can feel it). I also like animals and have, let's see: 2 dogs and 2 cats.

I also am a big fan of rock, punk and such, but I don't mind hearing random stuff sometimes, as long as it's music and it isn't well... broken.I think that's all I guess, so basically see you guys around. Have fun with the course ^^

I'm a big girl in a big world! =)

Hi there! =D

My name is Joana Carlos and I'm 22 (although I don't seem to).

I was born in Lisbon where I've spent all my life and I don't wish to live in anywhere else. I had a house in the country but I still prefer cities. And I love Setúbal too; it's my second home (my father and his relatives were born there).

I studied in a private school till I was 20. Then I took a technical course in Webdesign for a year. After that I went to the university to take Journalism but I didn't like it so I changed to Translation this year.

I think I'm shy and sometimes nervous but I think I can be a very sensitive and nice person. I'm lazy and perfeccionist at the same time! (How can it be?? Let's just say that sometimes I take more than one year to finish something because I want it to be perfect). I'm also sincere, open-minded, and fairly intelligent.

I love my boyfriend and his family, my family and all my friends. I love birds (specially canaries) and cats. My boyfriend has one female cat and it's name is Lira. In the other hand, I very much fear dogs!!

My parents are divorced but I get along fine with them. I like my older sister but sometimes she can be very agravating.

My main goal in the future is to work in the music bussiness. Maybe by being a music criticist or working in the radio or finally organising music events. I wish, if I can, to take master degree after these years in the faculty.

Maybe you'll going to know me a little better in the "next installment of this saga"! *Joking*

Bye...

Hello!


The name's André Tiago Soares da Costa Pereira.
But just call me André or Blaze (my nickname).
I'm 19 years old and I live with my parents (yeah still...).
I was born in Viseu, then I moved and lived for 7 years in Terceira, Azores in an American colony.
And now, for the time being, I live in Montijo.
I had Science through high school and then it snapped... I always wanted to be a translator! What the hell am I doing here? >_<
I don't like discos and the sorts, my perfect night is at the pub listening to some calm or rock music having a cold pint of lager or watching a DVD. My musical tastes goes from Metal to Rock.
I have to point that I love the 70s and 80s! Damn good music.
Favorite Tv shows... Lost, House and whatever.
I watch anime and play video games as an hobby and I love it, it relaxes me and takes the daily stress away ^^

Who I am

I'm using all the creativity I have in me, because it's extremely hard for me to talk about myself... but I'll give it a try.

My name is Geossara, Gi for my friends (you're included), Elita for family. I'm 19 years old and although I have no accent, I was born in Cape Vert and lived in there until I was 7, then I moved to Portugal to live with my mother and study.

I have a younger brother, is name is Mario and is 14. We've been through many differents phases... from love to mutual "hate"... but in the end we always get along... or not ^-^

My mom is for me the best person in the world and I love her very much, if there's anything I'm really sure about is that she would do anything for me and my brother. She's a fighter, my biggest example. If I'm now where I am, it's because I have all her support.

I'm in translation 'cause it has been my goal since my 2nd year on high school. I intend to do a master's degree as well.

I really want to travel and leave Portugal for a while, to go to Japan and/or England. I hope (and want a lot) I can learn Japanese, unfortunalety it is impossible this year ='( .

When I have nothing to do, I love reading, drawing, dancing, singing (sometimes I sing in a choir from the church group I'm in, we sing in weddings and other ceremomies), and many other things. To be honest I like doing almost everything.

I think that's all. I've even told more things that I thought I would XD

I hope that this helps you knowing me better :)
Big kisses ***
