Of course I do the selection selectively.
Yet it is quite surprising to note the differences!
And the similarities between French and Spanish!

I still remember I was astonished when my tutor said that we can buy books at 'libriarie' - and in the end I just realise that that is bookshop, and not library, as claimed by English.

And so I am not surprised again when I heard the word 'libreria' is linked to some form of local business.


- For the 1st time I write something which is quite factual and no mixture of emotions this time =)

- Realise that one of the non-close friends seems to move on with life although actually stuck in a 'love-cycle' problem? Not sure if I am true, yet +U! Sometimes wound (if I am right, again...) take time to heal...

- No matter how harsh life can be, in the end one of my English colleague just told me, clearly:

"C'est la vie."









Thanks to nutella muffin and sweet potato deserts and choco-mint ice cream.


* C'est la vie *  

I miss my telenovela songs of "el Desprecio" - yet I know may be I will never meet it, again.
