This was the Writer’s Block question today:
If you were asked to recommend one destination in your country to LiveJournal friends who had never been to your country before, what place would you choose, and why?
I lol’ed. Everything sounds so Hetalia’ed nowadays, lol. And, well. Since Lulu is the fifth largest country there are lots of places to recommend. I haven’t been to all famous spots and I’ve lived here all my life. I think it’s more expensive to visit the Northeast State-tans than, say, Argentina.
So, considering the places I’ve been to, I’d say, first, Iguaçu Falls. And then Rio de Janeiro.
( I mean, look at that. )
And nao for some meme tiems:
▪ Leave me a comment saying "Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof."
▪ I'll respond by asking you five questions so I can get to know you better.
▪ Update your journal with the answers to the questions.
▪ Include this explanation in the post and offer to ask other people questions.
![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) zulenha asked (and I translated for the hell of it):
1. How long does it take for you to write a story?
2. If you could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive, who would you want to meet?
3. What did you want to be when you were chibi!Marizinha lol what a cute question
4. What’s your oldest memory?
5. What would you do if an unconscious Argentinean suddenly fell though your roof?

| The more you know |
[Dec. 3rd, 2009|08:34 pm] |
So, I think I can almost consider myself in vacations now – I have two stupid meetings things next week, but this is it – after those free until next February.
Well, sorta. My dissertation’s better be ready when I come back because I still need that degree, you know, and my teaches is getting ready to murder me, but still. At least I won’t have classes. And I’ll be able to dedicate myself to my real priorities without too much guilt.
My priority is Hetalia, in case you’re wondering. And, since it’s December and Christmas is the season of giving and all, I decided that everyone should give gifts to me ^_^
And since I’m not that shameless, I also decided that I wanted to give gifts for everyone, so if you give me a prompt and a pairing I’ll write something for you as a Christmas gift because I love you all. Anything goes, I'm feeling daring today. <3<3<3
And since you’re probably at a loss for words now and I’m a very generous person, I’ll also provide you with a list of things you can say in a situation like this. You can also use some when you get the gift:
- Hey! Now there’s a gift!
- Well, well, well... lol, I like this one
- Gosh. I hope this never catches fire! It is fire season though. There are lots of unexplained fires.
- If the dog buries it, I’ll be furious!
- I love it – but I fear the jealousy it will inspire.
- Sadly, tomorrow I enter the Federal Witness Protection Program.
- To think I got this the year I vowed to give all my gifts to charity.
- I really don’t deserve this.
ANYWAY, TODAY I LEANED SOMETHING. DON’T YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT IT WAS?
( LEARNINGS THIS WAY )
ETA: Oh, btw, you don't actually need to give me something back, just saying. I just feel like giving christmas gifts. <3<3<3 |

| A VERY SINFUL POST |
[Nov. 26th, 2009|04:34 pm] |
SO.
Help me out with something here. If you’ve been long enough in LJ, you know there are half a dozen comms with prompts and challenges, right? There’s 30 Kisses, 30 Hugs, tarot cards, AUs and so on, right? There’s also the deadly sins challenge thing.
Now, I didn’t join the comm, and this is not the point anyway. The point is that I kinda want to do the thing with America (it was supposed to be South, but I decided it would be cool to include North too, but not Central because I know NOTHING about them).
So now I’m having fun here trying to match the characters with the sins. And, since I’m a nice person and this will probably turn out a little dark, I want to do the virtues too. Of course, the characters can’t have a sin and the exact opposite virtue, because that just doesn’t happen. So this is what I came up with so far:
(Oh, and also, warning for potentially offensive content. BUT IT’S FOR THE GREATER JUSTICE)
( See if you can remember all the sins before clicking here. I did. \o/ )
...now i'm kinda thinking it would be interesting to add Portugal orz |

| RP fic thing |
[Nov. 24th, 2009|08:35 pm] |
So, it all started when Riot invite me to MSN to play.
The plan was to RP a little, but we got distracted with a discussion about public speaking techniques and Bariloche and female condoms and crazy teachers and at some point I pimped Cande’s hot Australia/Argentina/Brazil threesome fic and she said that Martin is totally jealous and then we started to talk about murderous argentine women and it went a little like this:
Riot: WE ARE OF THE JEALOUS TYPE. Haven't you heard of "Mujeres Asesinas"? Dude, those women were so jealous and fucked up and based on real horrible criminal Argentinean cases. We are of the possessive type, bad for romance, good for Twilight. Did they remake it at your country? A TV series of women killing people in gruesome ways? They did at Chile and Mexico
Berseker: NO, we're cute and sweet, so we did a remake of Chiquititas. Martin is CRAZY
Riot: Nah, Martina is insane. Martin is just possessive and nostalgic. Martina is possessive and doesn't handle things well. Have you ever heard of Yiya Murano? It was in Peron's times or at the beginning of the military government, I don’t remember, anyway, she was in a neighborhood society like in those old times, her friends betrayed her and she invited them to drink tea and have pastries and then she poisoned them all. Until this day the joke goes along of not having tea and pastries together, because they disguise cyanide very well.
Berseker: I IZ VERY AFRAID OF YOU GUYS NOW.
But Martina’s murderous ways are not the point even if it would do well to remember that, Luciana dearest. The point is that Riot thinks South America looks like an ice-cream and people don’t believe me when I say Argentines are not exactly normal orz and Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay would be the cone thing I never eat (!) and Brazil and the others are the actual ice-cream and Central America is the spoon.
North America is eating it, I guess.
LOOK IT WASN’T MY IDEA OKAY. Anyway.
Then we got to that point she said the ice-cream was melting and then said You have been melting within me for a very long time, carioca boy! (And I will mentally replace my sweet Misiones with other parts of my geography for my sanity, thankyouverymuch)
And then it started. Only instead of porn it turned into… something else, I don’t even know. All I know is that I liked it so much that I wanted to do something with it. So I added the paragraphs-drabble-things between the lines and played a little with the dialogues, but I’ll explain it better in the notes. So, be warned for slightly modified role-play. Also be warned for the warnings. \o/
Title:
Rating: Free.
Characters/Pairings: Brasil (Luciano), Argentina (Martin). Mentions of Martin/South America and Luciano/World (look, it makes sense, I swear)
Warnings: Lemme think. Innuendo, but that was a given, angst, slight hints at jealousy, Luciano got issues and I think we can say Martin is topping emotionally omg.
Summary:
( Love is like tango, is passionate, is fast, is breathtaking and suddenly it leaves you wounded, lying on the ground pondering about what just happened and then, when you think its over, you go back to the dance floor with another partner to lather, rinse and repeat. Samba doesn't do that, buddy. ) |

| [Meme] 150 Coisas Que São Paulo Precisa Manter em Mente |
[Nov. 22nd, 2009|04:38 pm] |
A ordem dos fatores foi a seguinte: O kink-meme iniciou essa coisa das listas, e a comunidade-mãe foi infectada. Daí eu fiz um pro Brasil e algumas pessoas fizeram pra outros países latinos e a zulenha fez um pro ES. O que despertou em todos a vontade de fazer listas para seus próprios estados.
Dai eu pedi pra minha baby sister, que estudou e mora na capital, pra fazer a lista. Depois acrescentei umas coisinhas aqui e ali e agora tenho o prazer de apresentar as 150 Coisas Que São Paulo Precisa Manter em Mente.
WARNING: São Paulo é um cara chato.
WARNING 2: MUITO chato, sério mesmo. Vocês conhecem a peça. Mas o que são alguns comentários preconceituosos entre família?

| And now for some very important news |
[Nov. 19th, 2009|05:56 pm] |
Yay, Portugal will go to South Africa. *HIGH FIVES*
I was reading something about Brazilian players in foreign teams, and the news said that now we have 12 players abroad. Three of them are part of Port’s team, go figure. The reporter said FIFA is trying to cut this out, because it’s an international competition and the players are supposed the be from the country they’re representing, dammit.
Uh. Fine, makes sense, I guess. If memory serves me, lots of French people didn’t really like their 2006 team because lots of players were from Francis’ African babies. racism, you say? Of course not.
But I’m not here to be mean. The guy has a point. If one of ours decided to play for Argentina against Brazil in a World Cup match, he’ll be cordially lynched when he comes back. So there.
Still, so far everyone is kinda giving him the finger for being such a cockblocker, but whatever. The cool part is that, according to said magazine, lots of very talented athletes are from South America (again, go figure) and lots of them play in Europe and Asia and I’m not sure about Africa and Oceania, but still, we keep this up and the 2014 will be a BrazilxArgentina thing no matter what team is playing. I THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY OKAY.
It also said that it’s hard to define nationality, because sometimes this stems more from culture and language and religion and stuff than from the place you are actually born, and proof of this is that Brazilian players tend to go to Portugal and Argentines’ tend to play for Spain.
Make of that what you will. I thought it was cute. :D
So, let’s see who’ll be there:
Asia: Aussie, both Koreas and Japan. What is Aussie doing here? Shouldn’t he be Oceania?
South America: The Fantastic Four (Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Uruguay) plus Paraguay.
North America: Mexico, USA and Honduras (north America since when? I thought he was central. Someone get me a map, please)
Europa: Holland, England, Spain, Germany, Denmark, Serbia, Italy, Switzerland, Slovakia, Greece, Portugal (YAY), Slovenia and France nii-chan. Who’s not celebrating, because, according to the newspaper, ‘Many believe the victory may not be that well-deserved after the team captain and striker, Thierry Henry, admitted accidentally fouling with a handball’. Hand of god, anyone? I hope you're dying of flashbacks now, Martin.
Oceania: New Zealand so lonely orz
Africa: Algeria, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana and Nigeria. And, of course, South Africa, because he’s hosting the thing.
So, get your flags and patriotic t-shirts and may Brazil the best team win. NOW IT’S FUCKING ON.
(or, you know. It will be, next year. Still. RAAAAAAWR DRUMS OF WAR) |

Lyrics here, in case you’re interested. But the English version kinda hurts my soul. This must be one of the most beautiful Anthems, and the translation just doesn’t live up to it. Everything is gorgeous, the lyrics, the melody, everything. I feel more proud hearing this one than the actual national anthem.
Anyway.
( History tiems, with commentary by Luci and Martin, because this is not a good subject to discuss with Port. Just saying. Oh, and this might turn depressing. It also might involve harsh words toward England. There’s a reason why Luciano doesn’t do nationalism, you know. ) |

Ok now I’m just being annoying
So, before you ask, no, I have no life and yes, I am spamming you, and no, I’m not- well, I might be slightly ashamed of it. But it’s important, I swear. Actually, this is so extremely relevant that you’ll thank me for posting it. Really.
Thing is, there’s this site, beautifulpeople.com, right? And to join the thing you have to be beautiful, because you send them a photo and they vote if you’re good-looking enough to be there and it’s very inspiring and, erm, look, I don’t know, it wasn’t my idea. And the guy who owns the site said despite considerable backlash against us, the numbers don't lie - we are catering to a very clear demand. BeautifulPeople.com may be morally ugly to our critics, but our growing success is a very beautiful truth.
So there.
The point is, they made a list with the most successful applicants, so now we can see who’s the prettiest country and who’s the ugliest, and if you just google the thing you’ll also see some commentaries on why Germany doesn’t fare all that well (too stern, they said), and why there’s no Middle East people (site is censored, they said), but you won’t find the whole list because everyone just mentioned the winners and the losers. For that, my friend, you'll need someone with no life willing to actually go and research.
I’m that someone.
Erm.
Come on, don’t tell me you’re not curious. It mentions Brazil. And Argentina. And Portugal. And Australia.

| THE BLOOD OF THE SOUL |
[Nov. 10th, 2009|06:53 pm] |
(title comes in caps because, come on. It's sounds so epic and bombastic and COOL. IT DESERVES IT. It comes from Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow, by Oliver Wendell Holmes)
Anyway.
I was going to write about Brazil’s foreign relationships, but the thing was getting way too big and Alfred was taking too much space, and I’m not even talking about Martin and Port and, well. I decided to take a break on that one and write about language instead. And yes, before you ask, I do have a life, and I should be writing about education or something, I don’t even know, but I DON’T WANT TO, so there. Languages it is. \o/
More specifically, my language. I just found an interesting article in NYT and decided some commentary was in order, so you’ll have Port and Brazil bonding over their shared language. After a bit of sidetracking about poetry. Because I always sidetrack orz
( erm... watch me ramble about my language? ) |

So, I have this presentation in less than two hours and I’M EXTREMELLY NERVOUS.
As in, FULL-OUT-PANICKYING AND HAVING HEADACHES AND FEELING LIKE RUNNING AWAY nervous. I’m anxious. I hate presentations. I hate my teacher. I hate this paper. Right now I hate my life.
The worst thing is, I should be used to it by now. I don’t know how many of these I had to do in my school career, and it’s always hell and I always feel like this and jdksahfkjdlghkhg why can’t I just write the damm paper and leave it at that? What’s the point in presenting the thing anyway? WHY TEACHERS DO THAT TO ME?
Or, since I have to do it anyway, why can’t I get used to it?
And yes, this post is pointless, I just needed to get it out of my chest so now carry one with your lives and ignore the crazy woman running in circles behind the curtain. DJASKDFHLKAJHFKSGKH!!!1!!
ETA: AAAAAnd done! I think I was trembling a little there, but it got easier after I started, and... I don’t even know. I don’t know what I said and I have no idea what my grade will be, but with this teacher, I never do, so I guess it’s ok. And I feel lighter now. Thank you all so much for your support, you’re really sweet and it was really comforting and I NEEDED IT AND BAWWWWWS THANK YOU *hugs everyone in a very embarrassing clingy way because I’M BRAZILIAN*

This song’s been stuck in my head for the last two days.
Well, at least it’s a cute song. And it made me want to write fic about Alfred going around with a camera asking people what they love about their countries, only it would be PRESUMPTUOUS of me to answer that question without at least some research, soooooo… you people who happen to pass by, what do you love about your country?
Because right now I love the ocean God, is HOT in here, I’m being punished for complaining about the cold and the wind and the trees that cast shadows in the street, and I love my pen-drive and internet and international fandoms and the fact that we invented the airplane even if Alfred won’t admit it, and I love our pizza that’s so much better than Italy’s and pasta even if Italy’s better than ours and my language and other people’s languages and the fact that if Martin decides to be honest he’ll have to answer dulce de leche. ^_^
Wiki says: The song was not broadcast in Brazil and, presumably, other Portuguese-speaking countries, because of the fact "boom-de-yada" sounds very much like "bundaiada", which is a collective noun for butt.
I- I can’t even.
I LOVE MY IMMATURE COUNTRY WITH THE INTENSITY OF A THOUSAND BURNING SUNS \o/

What you need to know before coming in:
1. I’ve been to Buenos Aires in ‘05. I spent fifteen days frolicking around and having fun and this entitles me to say whatever I want about Argentina.
3. Argentina is insane.
That said, let me introduce you our lovely, if more than a little crazy, neighbor, as seen from Luci’s point of view because’s the only one I can use for this. But don’t worry, his point of view is absolutely fair and unbiased. I swear. Come on, trust me.
