Hello all readers! Well, I have not written for a long while, and it has its reasons. Some weeks ago me and Diêgo were invited for his cousin Vivian´s birthday party by his aunt. It was nice and I loved to eat brigadeiro, a brazilian chocolate cookie. We slept over there and the next morning I had pain in my trought. This pain would get much worse the coming days, so we went to hospital to check it. The doctor only took a short look at it and later I got two very painful injections in the ass. The infection I got in my trought did not dissapear, I got fever so one day I decided to go to a private hospital, I have the insurance so why couldnt I?
In the private hospital, Real Hospital Portugesa, they took much good care of their pasients and there was no deadly sick people in the corridor. I got recipe for penicillin and other medicin that I had to eat the coming two weeks. The first days I stayed at home in our room resting, not able to eat anything at all. When the infection dissapeared I got a new one, a big yellow thing is dwelling in the back of my mouth. I am able to eat but this pain is horrible some times, the pain goes up to my ear like knifes sometimes, and Im really tired of it now.
One thing I know can say about Brazil is that it also is the land of infection, illnesses and diseases, one time I was so tired of this country that I just wanted to leave it in one second, I never had so many problems with health since I came here. If this pain dont dissapear soon Ill go to hospital again and hope them make it dissapear once and for all!!!

My almost stolen cellphone
Im going to tell about yesterday. We used our last money to take the bus to Diêgo´s aunt´s home to be there and eat dinner. Diêgo was showing his passport to them. We looked at an old discriminating cartoon film, very horrible but funny. Later Diêgo´s grandmother wanted to look at football, apperantly their neighbours was looking at football too cause when the ball missed the goal, we could hear a man scream one stair up. Later Êlyza came with her husband who is a lawyer and willing to help us with the contract, but it will cost us 1000 reais.
We will wait and see what the consul will say if he did find a lawyer, probably this lawyer will be more expensive but if not, then of course we will change.
When we took the bus home at night we could see alot of football freaks at the street, when the bus stopped close to our home alot of freaks went inside the bus at the exit, without paying. At the same time we passed by them I suddenly could feel how my cellphone dissapeared from my pocket, I got panic and told Diêgo who was already outside the bus. He came inside again and we asked the guilty to give it back. I was to soft and naive, but Diêgo was hard and asking the person not to be an idiot and give it back immideatly or else we call the police. Two guys were very annoying and guilty, telling "I didnt steal it, I did not, do you accuse me, huh?" the bus became in a chaos and people avoided the back side of the bus. One woman called the police and next time the bus stopped it was totally FIVE polices outside entering the bus to check all people in the bus who had my cellphone. It was a bit unrealistic that five grand polices stopped the bus just cause of me, it was a wierd feeling. One of the polices found it under a seat, the two guys acting guilty had to go out from the bus, but no one could proove they were guilty. The guys went inside the bus again and the police asked us to drive us home, it would be dangerous for us to be in the bus now with a criminal who for sure still is in there angry. But it was not needed cause we were close to home. I thanked the polices.
In this cases I really like the police here, in Sweden I am sure they never would do something like this for a cellphone...

The Contract
Yesterday was a changing day. At morning we went to Shopping Boa Vista, bought a card to Diêgo´s cellphone, bought chocolate and something to drink. Later after some hours resting at home we took the buss to Boa Viagem to visit the Swedish Consulate.
The consul said that the form the secretary in Rio de Janeiro linked to us is two years old and is not working anymore. He also explained some things, that if we make a contract showing that we will make a stabil union (marry) we had to make a lawyer make a contract for us, then nothing in the interview in Rio de Janeiro can stop us. We also should buy one ticket for january before the interview to show that Diêgo really will go to Sweden. Right now I am only worried about the price for the contract, lawyer seems to tend to be very expencive what I know.
Today we will check the new form, print it out at Êlyza´s home, last we paid 5 reais for just printing out the form. We will also visit Cláudio again.
Our trip to João Pessoa and Natal wont be done this month because of all things we have to fix, like documents, contract, form, bla bla bla, so hopefully we will make the trip next month. Lets see what happens, new suprises come every day.
Thats was all for today, bye!

Geography
Hello everybody!
Yesterday me and Diêgo went to copy some documents, like passport and stuff, later we went to Livraria Cultura and spent the afternoon there. Nothing really special happened yesterday, bought pasta to fix at home and some cookies with brigadeiro-taste.
Today we first went to the bookshop Livraria Cultura, stoped buy at the perfume shop were Amparo works, Êlyza´s mother. Later we went to Cordeiro to this cyber, later we will go to Cláudio´s home.
At the way we were talking about geography again. Before we fighted about if America is one continent, as Diêgo say, he say that United States always wanna fall apart the continent in two. I say it is two continents, it is most realistic, as you can see on the map it is two different landmasses, it disturb me a bit that he say America is one continent, while Europe and Asia is two, cause it is more logic to say that Eurasia is the real continent, but Diêgo dont agree with this, he say the culture create continents. Today we talked about if England and Scotland is one country or not. Diêgo say it is different countries cause they have different teams in the World Cup, I say it is one country, United Kingdom or Great Britain we always say in swedish. They have one seat in the United Nations, one membership in European Union, one account in the Eurovision Song Contest, to say it is different countries and show the different flags in World Cup (wich many people look at) is just a trick to fool tourists and make more money, it is sad people believe in this shit. Suprisely Diêgo did not see Wales as a country, after all it have the same status as England and Scotland. Well, thats all for todays chapter, see you again, bye!

Passport fixed!
Yesterday when we were at cyber, Diêgo got a mail from the federal police at the airport that his passport was already finished. Later we took the bus to the airport, Guararapes International were we could get it. We took a small bus all the way to the entrance, we really didnt wanna walk that way after what happened last time.
Diêgo´s passport was blue with the Brazilian star in the middle, really beautiful. We eat at Bob´s at the top floor, went out to the roof garden of the airport mere I fell in love with the wonderful view of Recife´s all skyscrapers. We was at the airport to the evening before we went home. Something at the roof of the bus was destroyed and flyed away from the car, really scary, but funny too. Today I dont know what we will do, maybe go to the basilica, I am sure we will go to Livraria Cultura as we alsways do. This is all of today, bye!

Fascist police
Hello readers! I have things to tell about yesterday. We went to the federal police at one o clock, when we arrived there I made my shorts longer, cause they have rules that u cant enter if you wear shorts. When we passed through the gate the guard stopped us, my shirt was showing my arms to much so I didnt have permission to pass. I was really angry, but then a woman passed buy showing alot of her arms and more, but she could pass. Diêgo asked why she could pass but not me, "She is a woman" the police said then. Diêgo went inside alone, but they didnt open until 30 minutes later so we had to wait, but they took women now already. We waited in 40 minutes, later Diêgo could enter, but the police wanted me there, so we had to go home so I could change clothes.
When we came back later we met a girl from Sweden, she was fighting with the fascist police cause she wrote her birthdate wrong, in Brazil they write the numbers opposite from what we do in Sweden, but the police didnt wanna explain to her, just yelling. The polices didnt speak english either, only later someone who spoke english came, how primitive, they act like gorillas those stupid fascist police. We helped her, she told us she have been there for 2 hours, the police didnt like her from the beginning.
We got her msn and adress, later we went to Livraria Cultura, the book shop. They had a lecture about the elections in United States. They was speaking in portuguese, so Diêgo had to translate for me sometimes, as I could see, United States is even more capitalist och fascist than Brazil, I always knew this, but after seeing Brazil Im scared for how it look like in the North American neihgbour, its not the people who choose the president. The reason why only two parties exist in USA is cause its to expence to fix a party that all people can hear, at least one billion dollar!
Later we left the Livraria Cultura, went home and eat something before falling asleep. Today we will get Diêgo´s passport, or go and fix new documents, then we have to take the metro, exiting! Bye!

Brennand´s Castle
Hello all readers! This is the second upload I do today cause last time I wrote I forgot to save, so I have to write the old upload today before I could write this, really annoying!
Well anyway, Yesterday we took the bus to Instituto Ricardo Brennand, an artist. First I thought there only was one Brennand in Recife, but actually there is two, Ricardo Brennand and Fransisco Brennand, the one who created the Crystal Tower across the water at the opposite side of Marco Zero.
First when we arrived at the place we had to wait 30 minutes outside the gate before it opened, then we had to walk a long path with palms of each side of the way, really beautiful. Around us it was big open fields with palms and one factory far away. We finally came to the garden after 15 minutes walk, then we entered the first castle. It was really european style, not south american at all. But it was beautiful and reminded me of Hogwarths. We looked at many things, like old globe´s, old dolls and classical white statues. Later we went to the other castle were Diêgo fell in love with the many armour knights there. There we also could find a collection of swords and shields and also beautiful keys from all over the european continent, I saw one key I liked, the name of this was The Swedish Kingdom, a golden key with the three crons on it.
We ate chockolate cake in the first castle, looked around again before we took the bus to downtown were we eat dinner and bought three chockolate boxes and kinder eggs. Me and Diêgo had a big fight about if America is two or one continent, it is two seperate geographical continents, South America and North America, thats my view. Bye!
