Best gift ever

It’s Christmas time!! We’re heading to Brazil to spend Christmas eve with mum, grandma, papa, brother, uncles, aunties  and cousins! Can’t wait to be with them!

But I couldn’t forget to celebrate this magic date with our family here in Down Under, our friends who has always been with us, sharing every single moment we’ve spending in Australia.

So we had a Pre-Christmas eve dinner last night, with a funny Kris Kringle. This time, the gift should be creative, we arrange between us we could hand make the gift or have a great idea of what to buy. We had such a fun time together, with awesome creative gifts!

Craft gifts made with heaps of love

Talking about gifts, I would like to say a little bit more about what I’ve got this year. First, I’d like to thank God for those special gifts, that I call friends. There’s no words to describe how precious they are. They’ve been part of every little piece of my life, sharing and giving so much, like angels lighting up my paths.

At this evening, I got a few gifts from them. Made with heaps of love for sure. But the real gift, is to have them in my life.

Love you two so much!!

In a couple of hours I’m heading down to Brazil! A 30-hour trip is waiting for me. Can’t wait to see everybody there!! And despite it’s been only 8 months since I went to visit them, I’m missing ‘em so f*@#$% much!!

Stay tuned for uploads from Brazil!!! Here we come!!

Love, hate and thinking big

Back when I was studying Journalism, I always hated Advertising and Marketing and everything about it. Even though both courses are part of Communications, we used to be more like rivals. I don’t know how to explain it, but for me (as a journalist) Ad people write in a repetitive way. Anyway…

After I finished my Bachelor in Journalism, guess where I ended up? In a Marketing course! That’s hilarious, isn’t it? Yeah, but it was my only option. I couldn’t choose between Tourism or Hospitality, no way. It was meant to be Marketing! Despite the firsts months in class were a bloody hell, I reckon I’ve made the right decision.

I’ve learnt so much with it. The Marketing course, that I just finished, gave me a wider impression of the Communication world. It’s all about the understanding of needs and desires of those people we maintain relationships with. Actually the whole marketing thing turned out to be quite interesting.

Marketing is about to set your objectives in smart way. So is your life! And that’s what I’m talking about. The marketing course opened my mind to figure out my future plans and goals, which I’m starting to set right now!

How about you,

Have you ever ended up doing something (anything) you first hated?

What did you learn with that?

Did you start to love it?
