It's been two years! It's been two years since last time I wrote here. When I started studying English I would practiced more reading and writing and almost nothing of listening and speaking. So I realized that method was unnatural. Children normally learn to listen and speak first, so that they can read and write later. That is the natural way of learning a language. So I stopped a while writing on Italk and took a lot of time listening to english. I think I've improved this skill during this two years, I don't understand everything yet, but I'm better than before.

One girl, two worlds Recently I watched the French animated film "Persepolis" which is based on Marjane Satrapi's autobiographical graphic novel of the same name. Persepolis tells the history about Iranian Marjane, beginning from her childhood when she is just a smart little girl who want to be a prophet and disciple of Bruce Lee. At that time Iran is ruled by a pro- western monarchy and the country is through a political crise, therefore she grows up in times of political agitation, as her parents, who support the overthrow of the monarchy, talk to her about politic and her uncle who is a communist, tell her about revolutions history. After many popular protests, the monarchy steps down and is established an Islamic dictatorship. After established the new dictatorship, communists and any people who are opposed to government are arrested and killed, included Marjane's uncle. Any cultural product from western are prohibited. So, Marjanethe, already a teenager, starts to buy her favorite Rock bands' cassete tapes on black market. In a hilarious scene, Marjan writes on your jacket the phrase "Punk is not dead", but instead "dead" she wrongly writes "ded". My profile picture is from that scene. As Marjane is a resistent girl, she insists on desobeying that authoritarian rules, so her parents fears for her safety in Iran, therefore, they decide to send her to Austria. In Austria she lives many adventures, disappointment, suffers prejudice for being a Iranian as she matures and becomes a woman. Later she returns to Iran and feels like a foreigner in your own country. Ps: The film title "Persepolis" refers to ancient city of Parsa, located seventy miles northeast of Shiraz in present-day Iran.

20 year without Senna Today is the international work's day. Exactly on this date,Twenty years ago, died the Brazilian greatest sport idol: Ayrton Senna. Brazil was moved by his death. I was a six year-old child in this time and as a child I had no idea how he was important and loved. I just remember of the song that used to play everytime Senna won a race. It's impossible anyone doesn't tears up when listen it as is showing clips from his victories. In são Paulo, the cemetery Morumby has received many visits since the beginning of the week. Are ordinary people who are still Keep Senna in their hearts.
