| FRIENDS, FRIENDS, FRIENDS... |

| I spent the best year of my life as a Biology major with these guys at UniCamp. Only one year of contact, but it gave us everlasting friendships... This was the surprise party they gave me in my 18 year old birthday. - Campinas, 1992 |

| Sometimes it is good to enjoy life by doing silly things... Dani and I were roommates in a co-op in the semester she came from Brazil for an exchange program at the UW. We threw out a party, and we were asking for donations. Of course, here we are pretending to ask for donations for "another" type of service... Just pretending! Madison, 1999 |
| Te Brazilian friends at UW. Here are some of those who helped with the Brazilian Association. Easter, 2001 |

I wished our daily contact lasted longer... UW, Aug. 2000 |

| In Chinese we say that "Outside home we rely on friends". I'm afraid that my friends don't truly know how important they are to me... Well, here is my public declaration: Thanks! I love you all! Also, to all those of you whose picture is not here, but who would like to be part of this "gallery", please let me know, or better, send me an eletronic file of a picture of us! |
