Diário de uma Longboarder -Verão

Snapper - photo Piai


Olá,
O verão chegou!

Pela primeira vez que passo o verão longe do Brasil e da família.
Continuo escrevendo meu diário daqui da Austrália.
As festas de final de ano foram um tanto diferente comparado a todos que já passei. Sem a família achei que seria um pouco triste, mas quando estamos viajando guardamos a família no coração e ganhamos uma nova, os “Amigos”.
O Natal foi em um Barbecue (churrasco) no morro de Dbah (Duranbah), regado de comida, bons amigos, muita risada e acompanhados por uma Lua incrível.

Depois de uma longa espera, chegou a tão esperada época de ondas. Não que no inverno não dê boas ondas, pois estamos falando de Austrália, mas devido a todas as minhas lesões que tive na minha temporada na Indonésia, passei o inverno me dedicando ao curso de inglês na melhor escola da Gold Coast a QIBA (Queensland International Business Academy), ainda tenho mais 9 meses de curso, mas já sinto uma diferença enorme no meu Inglês.

Mas voltando as ondas, agora começa uma época de muitos ciclones na Costa Leste, o que significa muita onda boa.
Estou morando num dos melhores points breaks do mundo, Snapper Rocks, Rainbow Bay, Kirra e perto de vários outros picos constantes. Snapper é conhecido também pelo crowd intenso, mas  quando está clássico tem onda para todo mundo.

Aguardem as imagens dessa temporada que está apenas começando.
Estou vivendo um sonho!

Quero agradecer a minha escola QIBA, por me proporcionar tantas alegrias, amigos que faço a cada dia e não menos importante o aperfeiçoamento do meu inglês devido a dedicação e carinho de todos os envolvidos nessa instituição, que mais parece minha segunda casa.

  

Diary of a Longboard – Summer
Hello,
Summer has arrived!
This is the first time for me to spend summer far away from Brazil and my family however, I continue writing my diary from Australia.
The festive season was quite different compared to what I’m used to.
Being away from family can be sad, but when we are living overseas we can keep in touch easily nowadays with apps like Skype  so family remain in our hearts  and we get the opportunity to make new friends.

Christmas was at the BBQ  area at D’bah (Duramba), with a banquet, good friends, a lot of laughter and accompanied by an amazing moon.

After waiting a long time the classic wave season arrived. Winter time is good also because we are talking about Australia. Due to my injuries that I received in Indonesia last year, I spent the whole winter focusing on my English course, in the best school on the Gold Coast, namely, QIBA (Queensland International Business Academy), where I still have 9 months of studying left and I’m already feeling the difference in my language ability.

Regarding the waves the cyclone season is upon us here on the East Coast, which means best waves have started. Living close of the best point breaks of the world: Snapper Rocks, Rainbow Bay, Kirra and an other such places a dream come true. Snapper is known for it’s enormous crowds, but when it’s pumping there is plenty for everyone.

Keep watching this blog for images of this season’s waves; it’s just the beginning.


I would like to thank my school and all those dedicated people at QIBA for giving me good moments, friends and improvement in my English.

Sonzinho




Lyrics: 


I didn't want to be the one to forget
I thought of everything I'd never regret
A little time with you is all that I get
That's all we need because it's all we can take
One thing I never see the same way around
I don't believe it and it slips on the ground
I wanna take you to that place in the "roche"
But no one gives us any time anymore
You used me once, you fled, looking, it was dark
You made an offer for it, then you ran off
I got this picture of us kids in my head
And all I hear is the last thing that you said
"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"
I didn't want to anymore, oh oh oh
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
Some more again
It didn't matter what they wanted to see
He thought he saw someone that looked just like me
The summer memory that just never dies
We worked too long and hard to give it no time
He sees right through me, it's so easy with lies
Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise
He runs his scissors at the seam in the wall
He cannot break it down or else he would fall
One thousand lonely stars hiding in the cold
Take it, I don't wanna sing anymore
"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"
I didn't want to anymore, oh oh oh
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
I don't understand, don't get upset, I'm not with you
We're swimming around, it's all I do, when I'm with you
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
And we will never be alone again
'Cause it doesn't happen every day
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Can I give it up or give it away
Now I thought about what I wanna say
But I never really know where to go
So I chained myself to a friend
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
