(PT\/BR<\/em>) enquanto voc\u00eas assimilam que eu n\u00e3o vou conseguir fazer atualiza\u00e7\u00f5es na frequ\u00eancia estipulada (eu simplesmente esqueci domingo), adianto que tomei meu primeiro banho de chuva em philly \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

at\u00e9 ent\u00e3o, n\u00e3o sei se por sorte ou se o tempo \u00e9 sempre assim, o clima aqui tem sido muito agrad\u00e1vel. as duas primeiras semanas quando o ver\u00e3o ainda tava a mil foram bem quentes, mas o resto se manteve numa m\u00e9dia de 20\/28 graus e dias ensolarados. os dias que choveu \u00e0 tarde eu n\u00e3o tinha aula, mas ontem\u2026 pensem que desde o in\u00edcio eu tenho ido caminhando pra temple, pra aproveitar a cidade e o dia (s\u00e3o 25-30 min de caminhada), e ontem foi s\u00f3 imposs\u00edvel. obviamente, um m\u00eas n\u00e3o \u00e9 tempo suficiente pra comprar um guarda-chuva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

bom, dito isso, os highlights dos \u00faltimos dias:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sexta fomos em um festival em Camden, que fica em outro estado mas \u00e9 literalmente s\u00f3 atravessar a ponte, que o vic queria ver o bob dylan. tocaram tamb\u00e9m a Sheryl Crow e o tal do Willie Nelson, apelidado por mim de billy nelso, o maior estadunidense dos estados unidos. eu honestamente n\u00e3o sei se \u00e9 verdade, mas eu inventei, j\u00e1 que ele tava todo de estados unidos e era a atra\u00e7\u00e3o principal (o que nos faz pensar que nos EUA o billy \u00e9 mais amado que o bob, e considerando que o bob literalmente se escondeu atr\u00e1s de \u00e1rvores e luzes no palco pra n\u00e3o ser visto, talvez tenha fundamento). foi bem bonito ver philly do outro lado da margem pela primeira vez, e a ideia de ficar sentado num gramado bebendo uma cerveja superfaturada (n\u00e3o ironicamente 20 d\u00f3lares um lat\u00e3o) foi na verdade bem agrad\u00e1vel. o ruim mesmo foi ficar 2 horas na tal da t-mobile que virou minha inimiga n\u00famero 1, e j\u00e1 digo: burocracia tenebrosa, call center horr\u00edvel, tudo igual ao que \u00e9 no Brasil, e quando tu diz que n\u00e3o quer mais eles te oferecem o tal de desconto. bye bye honey (brincadeira, s\u00f3 cancelamos a internet).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

jo\u00e3o fonseca ganhando do tsitsipas, laver cup, eagles acabando com meu pai (falso) nos chiefs, phillies nos play-offs.. s\u00f3 falta meu gr\u00eamio, mas dito seja que a raz\u00e3o do meu choro nas \u00faltimas semanas foi o sr conrad conklin. finalmente o divo foi feliz gente.. agora vou ver o casamento \u00e0s cegas de idosos, j\u00e1 comecei o primeiro ep e passando mal. quem me conhece sabe que adoro um bom reality\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

finalmente: apesar de j\u00e1 termos experimentado alguns sorvetes aqui (os potes s\u00e3o menores) e de todos serem bons (o do reeses eu n\u00e3o compraria novamente), eles n\u00e3o s\u00e3o muito baratos (8-10 d\u00f3lares), ent\u00e3o esses dias me aventurei no mercado barato deles – meio que o rissul das antigas s\u00f3 que PIOR – e peguei um sorvete de 2,95. bom. s\u00f3lido. 8\/10. melhor que a kibon que virou pura gordura hidrogenada como diz meu pai. dito isso, falta um zaffari pra esse povo. a falta de uma organiza\u00e7\u00e3o, uma curadoria de produtos\u2026 fica a dica estados unidos!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

por hoje era isso. tenho sentido que alguns de voc\u00eas querem perguntar como est\u00e3o as coisas aqui ou t\u00eam curiosidade sobre coisas espec\u00edficas mas acham que v\u00e3o estar atrapalhando de alguma forma ou querem dar meu tempo. por favor, me chamem e me perguntem!!!!!!!!!!! eu prometo mandar 5 \u00e1udios de 3 minutos contando!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

beijos e tchauuuu<\/p>\n\n\n

Philadelphia view from Camden, New Jersey, USA, 2025.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

(EN\/US<\/em>) While you’re all figuring out that I won\u2019t be able to update this as often as I\u2019d like (I simply forgot on Sunday), I’ll let you know that I got soaked by rain for the first time in Philly \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So far, I don’t know if it\u2019s luck or the usual, the weather here has been very pleasant. The first two weeks, when summer was still in full swing, were quite hot, but the rest of the days remained at an average of 20-28 C\u00ba and sunny days. The days when it rained in the afternoon I didn’t have class, but yesterday… just imagine that from the beginning I’ve been walking to Temple, to enjoy the city and the day (it\u2019s a 25-30 minute walk), and yesterday was just impossible. Obviously, a month isn’t enough time to buy an umbrella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, that said, the highlights of the last few days:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday, we went to a festival in Camden, which is in another state but literally just across the bridge, since vic wanted to see Bob Dylan. Sheryl Crow and Willie Nelson, nicknamed billy nelso by me, the greatest estadunidense<\/em> in the United States, also performed –  I honestly don’t know if it\u2019s true, but I made it up from my perception, since he was all US vibes (wearing bandana, showing of a flag) and was the main attraction (which makes us think that Billy is more loved than Bob in the US, and considering that Bob literally hid behind trees and lights on stage to avoid being seen, maybe that is a reason why). It was really beautiful to see Philly from the other side of the river for the first time, and the idea of \u200b\u200bsitting on a lawn drinking an overpriced beer (not ironically, $20 a can) was actually very nice. The worst part was before, when we spent two hours at T-Mobile, which became my number one enemy, and I’ll tell you: terrible bureaucracy, horrible call center, everything the same as in Brazil, and when you say you don\u2019t want it anymore they finally offer you a discount. bye bye honey (just kidding, we only canceled the internet).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jo\u00e3o Fonseca beating Tsitsipas, Laver Cup, Eagles beating my (fake) papa at Chiefs, Phillies in the playoffs… All that\u2019s missing is my Gr\u00eamio, but let it be said that the reason I’ve been crying these past few weeks has been Mr. Conrad Conklin. Finally, the diva was happy, guys\u2026 Now I\u2019m going to watch Blind Wedding with Brazilian seniors. I’ve already started the first episode and I\u2019m going to pass out kkkkkkk. Anyone who knows me knows that I love a good reality show…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally: although we’ve tried some ice creams here (the containers are smaller) and they\u2019re all good (I wouldn\u2019t buy the Reeses\u2019 one again though), they\u2019re not very cheap ($8-10), so the other day I ventured into their cheap market \u2014 kind of like the old-fashioned Rissul, only WORSE \u2014 and got an ice cream for $2.95. Good. Solid. 8\/10. Better than the Kibon that turned into pure hydrogenated fat, as my dad says. That said, a Zaffari is missing to these people. The lack of organization, product curation… Consider this a free tip!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s it for today. I noticed some of you want to ask how things are going here, or are curious about specific things, but don\u2019t want to disturb or waste my time. Nah. Please send a message and ask me!!!!!!!!!!! I promise to send you five 3-minute audio recordings telling you all about it!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
