My blogging life is extra busy. I own a mysterious number of blogs. Click on the photo above to check my profile and some of my other blogs. You'll notice that I post more often on this one. "The Pawnshop" is my very oldest and my dearest one for sure. I decided to start this blogspot in October, 2004, because I needed a special webplace to practice my English writings, copy and paste my favorite web reads, and vent every now and then about everyday matters. English language isn't my mother tongue. No, it is not. I speak Portuguese on a daily basis. Brazil is the country where I live and in here people speak only this language. Really, there aren't any Spanish speakers in this territory. Or better saying, there are some but they are either tourists that can't speak the local language or foreigners who are from next door and decide to move down here. Oh, and of course, Spanish teachers are able to do so. Some Bolivian, Uruguayan, and Argentinean do move to Brazil in order to start up a more financially successful life. Luckily, most of them are able to make it. And ironically, Brazilians do move out to start up a better life in European countries or they go to the USA, Canada, or even Australia. I myself lived in Florida for a while though my trip was part of an exchange student program. I went to the US to achieve another college degree. And I did. I studied Liberal Arts in a community college in Saint Petersburg, Pinellas County (Tampa Bay area). I had also taken another college degree course in Brazil before moving to Uncle Sam's land. I hold a bachelor's degree in Journalism from UEL (Universidade Estadual de Londrina). Another interesting fact of my life is that my present occupation is not actually based on writing or arts per se. I teach ESL for a living (English as a Second Language). Never would I imagine becoming a teacher in this life. Well, maybe I should have since my both parents are ESL teachers. My husband manages an ESL school and teaches English as well. We live along with a Siamese cat called Tibby and a black one called Pancho Villa. He was found in a trash can with its umbilical cord still in place. We saved him. Hubby's name is Roberto and my real name is Laila. We have been non officially married for 13 years and we have been officially dating since September 1991. Btw, I'm in my mid thirties. Hubby and I have been going through gizillions of ups and downs in this life and yet we keep on moving. We work hard to pay utilities including the broad band Internet wireless connection which allows me blog on. We do struggle. We do love what we do. I love my writings, my husband, my kitties, my occupation, my blogs. I love being the kind of monkey I turned out being.
