Back

After some weeks away from the web (or at least the productive part of it) I believe it’s time to get back to action and start doing some constructive work. It’s not easy to conciliate family, work, university and conlangs, yet I believe I’m not the only one doing this. So, I need to stop complaining and face the fact that I do this because I enjoy it :)

First thing to do is compile everything (about 100 *words and a couple of rules) and put it online. I’ll have it on by 18th of October or my name isn’t… what’s my name, again? Well, at least I’ll try.

Second, I’ll see if I can convince my nephew to test the language with me (K: If you read this send me an email)

*I probably meant roots, but that is still undetermined…

Holidays

I’ll be away for holidays during the next week so this blog and site will suffer a bit.

I promise to be back with material about hora language and the ancestors of the qora people.

The Famous Cock

Esta é uma imagem grafitada numa parede no Porto que eu há muito queria fotografar mas nunca tinha tido hipótese de o fazer, pois quando passo por ela vou sempre de carro, ou a hora é má, ou a luz não é suficiente ou qualquer outra razão. Mas hoje consegui passar por lá, com tempo, com lugar para estacionar (talvez por ser Domingo!…) e com alguma luz. Achei que devia imortalizá-la antes que alguém se lembre de a apagar, como é (infelizmente) costume nos grafitis neste jardim à beira-mar plantado.

A imagem em si não é nada de especial mas esteve durante muito tempo frente-a-frente a um outro grafiti com a passarinha do Famous Grouse Scotch (que entretanto já foi abaixo) e fazia todo o sentido :-)

Twiter and Twibes

I just joined Twiter today. And Twibes, also. The conlang twibe, of course. :)

And… of course, you should follow me on twitter here.

Slippery time

Why do I spend so much time in front of the TV set?

It seems I have nothing better to do, which is not true, but somehow this weekend I spent more time watching crappy movies instead of improving on my other projects, like this blog or my site. Or even my 9 years old “project”. Oh well…

I have to start keeping a to-do list and really do the things I put there. I have so many projects that I want to complete (or even start in some cases) that if I want to see them finished I really need to change. Hopefully this blog will help me keep in mind what I want to do and give me strength to go forth with whatever project I set my mind to.
