I can't stand more noise.
I wake up at 5 a.m with my father 'destroying' the kitchen because he doesn't know how to be a quiet person. At 9 a.m I wake up again with my grandmother yelling at the yard. I get up and my mother is speaking at a tone that I'm pretty sure that the neighbors from other planets can hear. My uncle turns his old pressure washer that he refuses to throw away besides the fact that it sounds more like an agricultural machine. The neighbors speak loud. Cars passing by. Cats meowing all day, noises of constructions, TV on a high volume, my mother watching whatsApp videos without headphones. On the bus or uber, people trying to talk. Cars passing by with funk music on extremely high volume that you can even feel things vibrating. At my girlfriend's house her old aunt talks to herself all day, her father from 30 minutes to an hour comes to say something and slams the door, three dogs barking and jumping. The ambulance passes by, the homeless passes by, kids pranking by ringing the doorbell. My girlfriend turns the radio on.
At class, umpteen students talking at the same time. When it's work time the teacher puts on a song in the background. There's music in the bathroom. Music at the cafeteria. Noise at the subway, peole speaking nonstop, the subway announcer giving information, people selling stuff inside the wagon, people giving shows in the wagon too, an old man sits by me yelling at the phone.
I get back home and there's a truck selling fruits, there's a car selling eggs, threre's a car selling gas, all of them with extremely high volume to annouce that they're passing by selling stuff. The phone doesn't stop ringing, my grandmother answers it and here we go again with her high tone of voice. There's the noise from the garage gate opening. My father sits on the sofa and turns the TV on with the most high volume possible.
All day like this. I go to sleep and if it's not the neighbor partying, it's a motorcycle passing by with its burst exhaust or 500 adolescents siting near my door and laughing at 4a.m. It all repeats over and over again. Every day.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Next year I'm planning on moving to a countryside where I think there migh be peace and silence to finally relax.

Gelocosmicos and other old surprises that would come inside of the chips bags
I really miss the 2000's suprises that would come inside of the chips bags or the ones you could save the bottle caps and exchange for a little toy. I remeber throwing a temper temtrum when I was little kid just to get the surpises hehe. Today I don't see anything like that except with kinder eggs but it's not the same. My favourite surprises were the following:
1. Gelocosmico by coca-cola, basically you would have to save 10 points ( 5 bottle caps) plus one real to get one of these toys, it shines in the the dark. I still have some of them. You can see them in the picture bellow.
2. Metal tazos (pogs) by Elma chips: There were a lot of these in the past here in Brazil, a very good chip called Fandangos and others had these posg inside of it in a large variaty of themes like yugioh, pokemon, sponge bob square pants and others.
3. Plush toys by parmalat: You could get one these by cuting the bar code from 20 milk boxes plus 8 reais.

Battlebots
Battlebots is an american television show which reminds me the enviroment of WWE, but instead of people fighting we have people controlling robots. This is a very nice show for people who enjoy computers and robots in general, in fact as silly as it may sound I remember watching this show back when I was in high school and it helped me to chose my course back then because I was so hyped that could build a robot like those from the show haha but I ended up changing my course after one year : D.
This is a video of the show: http://www.sciencechannel.com/inscider/battlebots-episode-203-highlights/
And this is a video of competition that happened at my college(IESB): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KY6ftwI253Q

Linus Torvalds
One man can change the world, in the world we live in today this is even more true. Technology has the ability to bring us all together and sometimes it enables one person to shine through to be seen on the other side of the world. This man has changed a lot of people's lives, this man has permanently altered the course of the technology world and has left his mark upon the earth and most people have no clue who he is. This man created Linux; Linux is a Kernal, a very low piece of software which interfaces hardware and software, it is used worldwide on servers, phones, routers, televisions set and supercomputers everywhere, it practically powers the internet. His name is Linus Torvalds. This is what technology allows us to do, it allows us to demonstrate our abilities to the entire world and really show our true pottencial, one hundred years ago this would not have happened, one hundered years ago this man would not have been able to distribute anything that he had created to the rest of the world. The way Linux was originally distributed was throught email with these words:
"Hello everybody out there using minix â Iâm doing a (free) operating
system (just a hobby, wonât be big and professional like gnu) for 386
(486) AT clones. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to
get ready. Iâd like any feedback on things people like/dislike in
minix, as my OS resembles it somewhat (same physical layout of the
file-system (due to practical reasons) among other things)."
Twenty-six years later his little hobby is now powering the infrastructure of the tech world. If he hadn't created his free kernel we wouldn't have tons of thing we have in technology today. All of these things that linux has reached out wouldn't be happening without the massive support of a huge community. Linux is open-source which anyone can contribute to it and make it better. Thousands and thousands of people help work on something he started, he has been able to rally these thousands of people around his project and get them excited about HIS projects. If we stop to think about the enormity of that for a second, this is one man who has touched your life and not just your life, everyone's life, a lot of people on this earth have been touched by this person in so many ways that is can't be quantified. That's why he is one of the inspirations that I have.

How to do laundry
This year I and my friends are moving from our parents's house and one thing that none of us are used to do is the laundry. Once we are single and there is no one to do it for us anymore I decided to search a video about it and I think I'm ready for it, so here are the steps to do the laundry:
1. You'll need to get your laundry together, powder or liquid detergent, bleach for white clothes and fabric softener.
2. Separate your laundry into white and coloreds otherwise you will get it color mixed. (does "color mixed " make sense?)
3. Wash your colored laundry in cold water and your white laundry in hot water.
4. You have 3 options for white shirts with stripes :
a - dry clean. I didn't even know it existed.
b - hand wash.
c - put it together with the colored laundry and use a thing called shout color catcher.
5. Make sure you empty out your pockets.
6. Pay attention to what type of fabric you are washing. Not all products can be used in all type of fabrics. If you use bleach in colored clothes you will get it stained/dye for example.
7. Put your laundry into the washer and add the detergent and the fabric softener.
8. Press the button to start the washing process.
9. After the washing is done put your laundry into the dryer.
10. Remove the fuzz from the lint trap.
11. Fold or hang up your clothes.
Words and expressions I learned:
bare essentials
hand wash
detergent
which can lead
frowny face
lint - those things that look like fur in the laundry
a pen busting open
that's the lowdown - The details and relevant information on a given topic or issue.
moisture-wicking fabric??? I didn't get this one
Video that I watched: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4QxmleZeu9s

Would you use "ain't" in these sentences?
I've always been told to avoid using the contraction ain't because it's very informal, however I noticed in some TV series and videos native speakers using it. So there's a couple of sentences that I have here that I would like to know if you as a native speaker would use it and what you think when people use it. Thanks a lot.
Here are the sentences:
1. You ain't seen nothing yet.
2. You ain't heard nothing yet.
3. Say ain't so. - (this one means "tell me it is not true" right?)
4. Ain't that the truth.
5. That just ain't so.
6. Two out of three ain't bad.
7. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
