Do you know I’m moving to USA, right? So, I need a place to live there. Last Monday I found one vague apartment, with two bedrooms, at Park Forest Apartments. It costs $710. This rental price includes gas heat, water, sewer, refuse, basic cable, and two free parking spaces.
And last week I was introduced to a guy called Adriano. He is a Statistics student too. He and I will move to State College together and share this apartment.
And the Statistics classes, obviously.
This morning my parents signed the rental application. They are my co-signers. You know, I need someone to pay my debts.
Everything is going fine. I guess that until August I’ll have all I that need to start a great step of my life.

This blog is awesome!
The layout is amazing!
The book is on the table!
Good luck at this new step of your life. Don’t forget to send a postcard to your friends, your poor friends, the people you don’t even know and the people you don’t wanna know, sayin’ you’re almost rich because you’ve earned it by workin’ very hard. Period.
your first post certainly looks like a foreign student speaking english.
but i don’t think you should be worried by now. you’ll be moving to US, you’ll have plenty of time to practice there. besides, you’re already practicing with this blog, so that’s a huge step.
cheers, man!
i think vague apartment is kinda portugiesisch. “vague” has more an abstract meaning in english, vacant would sound better. you don’t mind eventual suggestions, do you? my aunt (who’s a translator) comments these stuff all the time, on books, on tv, sometimes i can’t help it. i’ve been watching absolutely fabulous on youtube almost everyday, it’s a hell of a good practise because after a couple of days you start thinking in english. but yeah, as ana said, you’ll have plenty of time to improve your english skills, when you get drowned in a language like that it’s hard not to absorb it. besides, you’re going to deal with academic stuff, i bet in four years you’ll be proficient in specific-english-that-no-one-gives-a-damn.
oh, and so sorry, didn’t congratulate you yet! y’know, good luck on everything and bring me a gift. i said you’d get it!
I wonder if is there a spare bed to your friends!
