the twentysomething year old

What makes life so interesting are the risks you take and the people you meet. I've lived the majority of my life fearing the consequences of risks. Well, that's what the twenties are for! I am going to write about my trials and tribulations of being a twentysomething year old in this big world, trying to figure it all out. It's going to be a topsy turvy ride, but that's what being in your twenties is all about.

cafezinho

My host parents are home!!! They're back from Rio! I just had cafezinho with them and it was so great to catch up with them. I never really liked coffee before I came to Brazil. I always associated coffee as a source of energy to stay awake during finals week. But ever since I've been in Brazil, I've really been enjoying the taste of coffee. (It could also be that coffee here is a lot better.) The aroma, the aftertaste--it's such a good drink! For me, it was definitely an acquired taste...just like beer.

Speaking of beer, there's a beer party tonight...R$15 (roughly USD$7) for all you can drink beer...I'm not that into it but everyone is going, so why not?

  1. have fun!!! :D

    i like coffee...but unfortunately, i can't really have it that often...and the beer party sounds awesome. (a few days after my birthday i actually decided that this upcoming year at midd, i'm going to purchase more beer instead of hard alcohol. since i guess i like beer more than taking shots of random gross things.)

  2. I like taking shots because I think hard liquor tastes good?

    Hahaha.

    I feel like I will never like beer.

    But have fun!

    And I'm glad you like coffee.
