Hi there ^^

Thank you. I actually listen to all kinds of music, but those are the artists from whom I have the most music in my computer haha.

I wouldn't know how to say which one is better, they're just different. It's a different kind of rock music too, so... They can't compete with each other, I think. I love them both.

You're right. I left Queen out, not on purpose. I do like them, have nothing against them at all haha.

I haven't read the Brothers Karamavoz, it's on the list!
I also read White Nights and some other short stories, and I must say I loved them!

Hi Govinth, nice to meet you. Yeah, it seems we have much in common :) I love technology, that's why I studied engineering. And languages are a big passion of mine

Hi!!

Many thanks for your comment ;) My name is typical from the region of Berguedà (it's near to Barcelona). For me Catalan is better than Spanish language, but this is my opinion. I don't know if you heard that catalan people want to be independent of Spain and catalan people made an human chain in 11th of Setember.

We played badly today again! But you know what? It's well deserved! Have you heard about our coach, Carlos Queirós? Basically, before the world cup, Carlos told the anti-doping guys to **** off because it was too early in the morning to test the players. Almost 4 months have gone by, and now that "we" want to fire the coach but have no money to pay him, it was decided that he should be suspended and even fired from his job. Now we don't have a coach and the players look crazy out there... I think we can get back on our feet yes, but I also think the players really need the coach back :S

No no no, no teaching! I cannot teach classes, only tutor because I stutter quite a bit. It's embarassing I know :P
I really want to be a geologist and do field work, that would be fantastic! :D

I didn't remember any of that, I think I need to study my world history better! :P So the Portuguese, the Dutch, the British... And you were finally left alone then? Do you think they (and we) did more harm than good there?

Well Porto is actually the city that gave the name to the country. In 200 BC, the region that is now Porto, was called 'Portus Cale' by the Romans, meaning 'Port of Cale'. The name evolved to 'Portuscale', then 'Portucale', and in the 7th century the Porto region (from the Douro river up to what would become the border with Spain) was called 'Portugale'. That's pretty much where the name comes from, and you can see Porto was an important city even 'BC'. Not to brag or anything :p
Well considering past years yes, and rankings, Sporting is still better than Braga and still the third best team in the country, but these few past years Braga has risen up and they are playing very well. The thing with them is, they never really won anything, and Sporting has, a lot!
Porto is doing great! 3 games 3 wins, lots of goals, we hold first position with 9 points, and Benfica only won one game out of 3. That I like A LOT! xD

Have you seen the new IFFHS Rankings? That one

Hi there! What a game Portugal played, a complete train wreck ._.
Not Raul's fault though, he scored a goal :P

I find Geology fantastic, it's fascinating and I'm very please :D
Yes rocks, volcanos, cartography, physics, renewable energies, geological resources... lots of things really, it's very useful.

Do you say those words like that? 'Cause our words are very similar yes! Manteiga, janela, and garfo.
Ah 33 :O Well here we have hot summers yes, sometimes reaching 40 (more common these past years), and cold winters.

Porto is a beautiful city and I don't say this because I live here. It really is amazing :) It's the second largest yes, after the capital. But we don't like them, mainly due to football. You know how Barcelona and Madrid have that huge rivalry? Same for us :P

Have a nice weekend.

He's awsome! I love him and I hope he does great and helps you out.
If he plays half as well as he played in Porto you're in for a treat :)

Your engineering sounds very cool. I wanted to be an engineer at a certain point. I even chose physics instead of chemistry in high school but I ended up choosing geology as my degree. How do you find it? Very hard? Lots of maths and physics right?

Yes I did know that. We were everywhere once! How obnoxious :P
Your friend is right. Algarve is very bbeautiful and the beaches are wonderful, lots of tourists there, mainly British.
We do have like 700 km of coastline so there are lots of great beaches. The water is very cold, specially in the north. You dive and even your bones hurt... lovely :P I'm guessing you don't have that problem there. Algarve is different though, Mediterranean sea :D

Oh I work hard, everyday!
Take care :)

But if you win Europa League you have a guaranteed spot on Champions League! :D Or at least it was so a couple of years ago with UEFA Cup.

Raul is already gone to Liverpool, it is all over the papers today! 13 million I heard. You got a fantastic player there let me tell you. Check some youtube videos or something, he is great. He was probably our best player and he was great in the World Cup too :)

It is nice! And what Engineering do you study? Like civil, mechanics? Here we have many, I wonder if it is the same there.
How is life in Malaysia? Don't tell me you live near those wonderful beaches you have there :P
I work hard, always :)

Take care.

I'm fine thank you. Working a lot lately so I barely have time to come here these days :P

I saw your game yesterday, things weren't looking so well but you turned it around, that's great.
I do care a lot about Europa League, cause we've got a great chance of winning it. And you should too! Liverpool and Porto are the great favorites, so people say (and the rankings :P).
We got Besiktas, CSKA Sofia, and Rapid Wien. Besiktas is tough, but the others not so much. You got an easy group :D

Porto is doing great, Andre is a great coach I think. We won our two Championship games and we're first at the moment. And we won a cup against Benfica too, that one I loved :D

I noticed you asked me about my studies a while ago. I study Geology at the University. I'm taking my master's degree on geological resources, this is my last year. And you?
Take care :)

Hey you! How have you been? It's been a while :O I've been really busy these days, lots of stuff do take care of.

Who did Liverpool get on the draw? We got Genk from Belgium. Did you know we're favorites to win it all? That's right... :P
