    oh, the differences between languages...

    rui pereira is such an ordinary name in portuguese-speak countries.

    do you know where is he from?


    by the way, one name that i find cool is howlin' pelle almqvist, the singer from the hives.

    I was taught a month ago to bide my time and take it slow, but then I learned just yesterday to rush and never waste a day. Now I'm convinced the whole day long that all I've learned is always wrong. Things are true that I forget, but no one taught that to me yet

    I always thought Stone was a cool name and Gossard has a nice ring as well.
