Introducing
HI !!! That's me!!! (With a wonderful scort!!! Isn't Baby Dance lovely?!!!)
My name is Esther, (surprised?!) and, like say my friend Miriam, I passed the age to tell my age!!!
I am "gaúcha", borned in Porto Alegre, and I live in Rio de Janeiro, my adoption city.
As you can see...I have a privilege! I have two city to be proud of, and both of them marvelous! One, called "Smiling City" (Porto Alegre) and the other, "Marvelous City" (Rio de Janeiro)! Ins't it charming?!!!
I am an architect and I work with planning, but I love to play with computers.
In my professional life I have done a little of everything! I worked yet with building project, environment (my first professional job and the most grateful, where I was a member of a planning team to plan an Ecological Park!), I worked with building's cost estimate, as a building manager, and, in the last years, with airport planning, evaluation and airport master plans (another big passion!)
I am serious when necessary, but I love to joke! I think this child side never grew up, and it is bigger than my mature side! (Could you notice??? eheheh)
I am an aquarian, and, if this mean something, I think that the characteristics of an aquarian are so present in myself. If it is an air sign... I am always with my mind "on the air", and, like used to say my father, with the feet, too!!! He used to say that I don't forget to carry my head because it is glued on my neck!!!
I am sensitive and sentimental a lot, and I cry because of anything, even with TV advertisements!!!
I like soap-operas a lot, too!!! (An if you said I like bad styles I will cry!!! Sniff, sniff, sniff)
I am a big woman. (I woud preferred to be a great one, but...!!!). With my almost 5,7ft and my 170 pounds, you can not call me "littel one" ! But, in spite of this, (till today I don't understand why!!) my friends call me Estherzinha (Little Esther)!!!
Can you believe?!!!!!!!
I am divorced, have two beautiful daugthers and a family that, if it was better, would not exist!!! It is a big family and we are so close. We "function", more or less, like a clan. We are as close as an old fashion family, like the old southern families, all of us helping and looking after the others, even if we are far from each other! The photo of the "origin" of this clan is in the "Family Album" page. There was the picture of the 50 birthday of the marriage of my grandparents, with my grandparents and all my uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters of my mother. With their sons and daughters, my cousins, we form a "small" family of more or less 150 persons!!!!
And the friends?!!!!!!! AHHHH.........the friends!!!!
If I start to talk about them I won't stop never more!!! I have a lot of loyal friends, that prove me their friendship yet! I think the fact to have a big family let me do make a lot of good friends!!! And now, I add the Internet friends!!! The ones that I don't know personally, but I love as much as the others, like my great friend Miriam, and Ana Luiza, and don't forgeting my little "witch" Chris, a little young friend, with only 19 years old, all of them with wonderful home pages in the web!!! And all the others I made "surfing" in the net, all around the world. (Because of them I am trying to write this pages in my poor english!!! And I ask your forgive because of this!!!)
Well, if you read till here, and didn't be bothered...I hope you enjoy my "trips" and my "fly", through my mind and my Brazil, that is not only a country, but a big world of discoveries!
And...Ladies and gentlemen...
Fasten your sit belt and... Have a good trip!!!!
Ohpps! ...Me!!! Again!!! (A little more serious!)
On a picture took exactly two hoours before the entrance of the year 2000!!!
