Any letter from Felipe that you haven’t answered yet.

I don’t think I’ve done any yet, thanks!

MY FAVOURITE MOVIE.

City of God (Cidade de Deus), a Brazilian film set in a notorious favela in Rio de Janeiro, following two young boys from the 60s through to the 80s. It’s a powerful story but it’s also incredibly skilfully-made and atmospheric, and with a killer soundtrack too. It’s based on real people, and it’s brutal and tragic in many places, but it’s fascinating and absorbing and takes you on an amazing journey. And it came out here at the start of 2003, a year I’ve obviously been very nostalgic for recently, haha. I saw it in the cinema about 7 times, lol.

MY BEST FRIEND

My best friend is @shinyforce and she is wonderful and kind and soft and makes me kind of ashamed to not be as good a person as her but at the same time has made me better through knowing her! And she’s also very smart, supportive, understanding and fun to be around! Ily Helen~~

Oh I did already do L, but you can have another of my insecurities as well because I have so many, lol: my skin D: I mean just my entire face really, you really are invisible to – or, worse, scorned by – the world when you’re an unattractive woman, which is why I try and make myself noticeable by wearing striking outfits, lol.

HAVE ANY TATTOOS OR PIERCINGS?

Nope! I keep thinking of tattoo ideas (I’d quite like a Yorkshire rose, and a mugendai, and a number 19) BUT I’m really intolerant to pain lol so I’m basically too scared when it comes down to it, haha.

WHY I HATE SCHOOL.

I didn’t hate school, but I did hate PhD study, because quite frankly I never really had any idea what I was doing because nobody was there to tell me exactly what to do on a day by day basis, which is what I need if I’m going to succeed, really. 

Thank you! 😀
