August, winter. L'hiver à Lima.

What can I say....I only want to stay in bed because it's warm in there. It rains, or should I say, drizzle, there is no "proper" rain in Lima. How many people would be affected by this phenomenon? I mean with a real rain. That rain that washes all away, even homes....There is many people who live in a precarious situation, some are located at the border of the rivers and the houses are not solid, they are made of whatever they find. Roads can collapse because of the rain, they are poorly constructed and there is no way for the rain to drain.

I prefer the Sierra or the mountains. There is real rain and blue skies with white cotton clouds and sun! Lima is grey, very depressing. Sometimes we can get lucky and have a bit of sun. But the humidity is too high. People joke about us limenians or limeños that we are "amphibious".

I think it was yesterday or tomorrow (can't remember) that the moon was supposed to be seen like 30% bigger than usual. No way in Lima. It's always foggie. When we lived close to the sea, we could see the fog passing thrugh the house. I wake up with allergy. There's so many people, children, who suffer from asthma because of this weather. And the smog doesn't help either...

Anyways, we just have to wait for summer. It's hot, humid and sweaty but there is Sun! Let's not forget going to the beach ;-) 

Chucuito, Callao.

Welcome colourful flowers!

I forgot to mention that last Sunday there was a lunch at friend's house, a friend from school. We know eachother for such a long time! . We had a yummy lunch, excellent company of other fellow classmates and remembering the "travesusas" some did at school. Well, we were young and a bit restless, but it's always funny telling the stories from back then. It's always good having fun with them. 

Thank you for taking your time and read this.

3rd place

Mmmmmm.........

Ayayay, Brasil vs Nederlands.....

Who's going to win? Maybe the orange team? That Robben is good!

But heart goes to Brasil. 

I hope we'll see a good match with goles (goals), exciting to watch, making us eat our nails of despair.

Now we just have to wait almost three hours! 

See you tomorrow! That match would be good!

Vivi.

And the fútbol is coming to an end....

What a match for tomorrow july 8!

Germany vs Brasil.

No Neymar for Brasil team......

I just hope they make a great match and may the best team win, Please Brasil, show us you are fierce! Don't be scared of the Germans! (sorry my german friends).

Qué será será....what will be will be.

Netherlands-Costa Rica.

To start, I must say the Argentina-Belgium match was a Valium (that I didn't in that time).

They say: MESSI MESSI MESSI!!! He only scored one (1) goal or gol as we say. It seemed to me they were just happy with one gol. 

It was very boring, what were they thinking? They had to fight to win but they didn't make much effort. 

I was sleepy and hungry.

And now comes Netherlands - Costa Rica!

   

I hope Costa Rica scores at least one  goal, what can they do against "La Naranja Mécanica" (the clock work orange)?? Maybe a surprise? 

Come on guys, make a good match, aim to the goal! Give us fun and suspence to watch it!

Ok, that's all for now while waiting for the match 3pm Lima time.

May the best team win.

See ya!

Vivi.

And more fútbol! Allez les Bleus!!

Yikes!

Today plays France against Germany. Since I have some french blood in me, I will be rooting for the blue guys. Sorry my German friends.

ALLEZ LES BLEUS!!! It would be something like: "Come on Blue Guys!".

Oh my, it's 10 am here in Lima and I still have some time to spend it on the internet, checking my mail and other stuff.

Let's see what happens.....May the best team win!

At 3 pm there's the match Colombia-Brasil. Ayayay!!! That's gonna be thrilling! 

What happens if Brasil loses? What will be the reaction of the millions of fans? I hope there won't be violence et pas d'émeutes! Sorry, I don't know that word in english...

Good morning, or good afternoon or good night.

Vivi, now a football fan (every four years).

And yes, more football or fútbol whatever you name it.

I coudln't sleep last night, I think I fell asleep around 5am today wednesday 25. I woke up at 8:30 ish. I was like a zombie...but craving for sleep!

My matress kicked me out and I followed my dayly routine when I wake up. Wash your face with fresh cold water, first wash the hands with a nivea soap that smells very nice, Brush teeth, then weight myself ( who else would I weight...duh!).

I have to take out my pijamas to put on my dayly comfy clothes, always loose ones. I had two café con leche, decaf but I needed CAFFEINE. Put order in the kitchen. I'm a maniac, everything must be in its place, I set the lunch table, seasoned the pork chops, brown rice was already made and then headed to my room to watch the match Argentina-Nigeria, at 11am Lima time. Bravo Argentina!!!

After lunch and after leaving the kitchen clean, the plates and stuff on the dishwasher, my dad and I headed to see the France-Ecuador match. Of course, we were rooting pour la France! But let me tell you guys, it was a disappointment. The score: 0-0. Not a good match. The French players were just like letting the time go, it seemed they had no intention of scoring a goal. Sad.....

I hope tomorrow's match would be more interesting: USA-Germany. Please guys (players) aim for a goal!! Make it spicy!

Changing the subject, I'm going to start selling clothes, accesories, handbags by catalog from a company called Studio Chic Store. They have nice things, the clothes are cute; I bet I will be the first buyer!

Well, I have to go, I'm hungry.

Tada!

World Soccer Coup Brasil 2014

Sorry for my long absense!

What can I tell you.....I don't know why, I swear, I'm watching the Mundial Brasil 2014.

Everything I do depends on the hours of the matches! Breakfast, cleaning, laundry, reading my mail, then is lunch: we must finish it before the 2pm match (today England- Uruguay I think).

And must leave the kitchen crystal clear!

I'm electric,  as if I had taken Redbull or coffee! By the way, I NEVER EVER drink Redbull and all those drinks. I believe in water, fruit juice, and wine and café au lait bien sur.

Well, it's second time of Colombia- Cote d'Ivoire, so bye bye!!

See you later!
