Why or for what you read?
Reading is essential to humanity. Besides being a social requirement, reading is a great exercise. We exercise our knowledge and acquire new ones. Reading creates knowledge and through it we discover new worlds, learn new experiences and seek different cultures. It is a magical universe, where anything can happen. Reading is an art, and the curiosity that we have leads us far beyond what we can imagine.
Music
"Music produces a kind of pleasure without which human nature cannot survive."And does not. Music creates memories; some of these make people forget their problems, even if only for a few minutes. It causes us to reflect on the facts of life. It makes us cry, entertains us, welcomes us. Music has the power to change our thinking, whether in relation to a near future or a distant past. Music has the power to offer pleasure to those listening to it.

The Lecture
The lecture on 10 November was interesting, but at the same time tiring. The positive points for me were that some points were effectively defended by the students of the Master's course. The chance for people who were watching to ask questions was also a good point; it was rather helpful for people to leave with no questions about the lecture. The times I did not like: lack of structure of some students. I found the Portuguese students were better prepared. The English were found wanting because their defense issues were a little outdated, the students were nervous, and a student especially without any structure to deal with the public and with little preparation to be a good teacher. Their advisor should have prepared her students better.

Who am I?
Well, everyone knows that it is not easy to speak of ourselves, yet we have to say, we are human first and foremost. Every person has feelings, duties, goals, thoughts, dreams. Dreaming is a magical way of looking at life, but we have to have determination and will to get what we want.
From what I know, I am a person with goals, determined, very shy, friendly at all hours, and I want to grow in life. I carry a little turbulent life, but have always regarded it with great will power and will continue to do so, because I believe that time will erase everything and keep only the good things that life has to offer: nothing like a day at a time to erase unhappy memories.
My life is summed up in large and small events, but all have their moments. Moments from the day I was born, graduations and far more that is yet to come, facts of life that no one forgets, showing the journey of every human being who conquered their steps. A day in my life that will be remembered as the most important, that will always be in my mind every moment, is the day my son Bernardo was born. This is simply the most magical moment I have ever lived, as well as others since then. For this beautiful child that God gave me is part of my life, my daily life, the best gift I could get, the reason I'm struggling more and more so that he can have a wonderful future. That's why I always follow the paths that life offers me, and later think about the moments that I live. To err is human, but sometimes we learn that not everything we did was a mistake.
It was hard to face this new responsibility, but it was essential for my development. I grew as a person and I can say I know the magic of being a mother, something unforgettable, remarkable that is always present in my life.
