July 20, 2009 by Fabio ShiragaOne day in the park
I had quite a surprise.
I met a girl who had many eyes.
She was really quite pretty
(and also quite shocking!)
and I noticed she had a mouth,
so we ended up talking.
We talked about flowers,
and her poetry classes,
and the problems she’d have
if she ever wore glasses.
It’s great to now a girl
who has so many eyes,
but you really get wet
when she breaks down and cries.

reading online
April 6, 2009 by Fabio ShiragaOne of the things I like about reading my favourite journalists or writers is that they always introduce me to something new to read. I’ve just got acquainted to two fantastic magazines: The Believer and The Word. This blog is a little slow with its posts uptade, but you are always welcome to visit it and check the links we’ve got here.
excuse me
March 3, 2009 by Fabio ShiragaThe subjects that inspire me to come and post something are not always pleasant. This week I learned an expression I hadn’t read before: PASS WIND.
I loved it. I think it’s a polite way of saying fart, or not?
And today I came across this very useless article about fart:
10 Things You Didn’t Need to Know About Fart.
Ok, it’s useless. I’m sorry.

food
February 28, 2009 by Fabio ShiragaOne of the reasons my friend Marcio loves Toronto is the food the city offers. He wrote about it here.
There’s another city where you can find anything you want to eat:
In this cosmopolitan city you can taste everything from modern Brazilian cooking to top-class sushi and classic Italian dishes. Charles Campion takes a foodie tour and selects São Paulo’s top 10 restaurants. Read.
But if you really want to know where the good food is in the cities, you’ve got to ask taxi drivers. At least that’s what Layne Mosler says.
I’m a freelance food writer from California and am currently based in Buenos Aires. Every week, I hop in a taxi, ask the driver to take me to his favorite place to eat, and chronicle my adventures (culinary and otherwise). As the food columnist for South American Explorer and a regular contributor to Time Out Buenos Aires, I’m always searching for a great meal.

prefix matters

Vacation is over, so the prefix EVERY (thing) is going to take over the prefix NO (thing). But I’ll still have sundays to do nothing.

February 16, 2009 by Fabio Shiraga
A pen pal relationship is often used to practice reading and writing in a foreign language, to improve literacy, to learn more about other countries and life-styles, and to make friendships. As with any friendships in life, some people remain penpals for only a short time, while others continue to exchange letters and presents life-long. Some pen pals eventually arrange to meet face to face. Some pen pals even get married.
