Yesterday I went to the mall with Eric. It was pretty crazy. Lemme tell the details.

I was at home. I was supposed to be at the mall by 12:00am. My dad was at a meeting and he was supposed to come home and get my aunt at her place then come here and get me and my mom so we could go to the mall. Well, it would all work if the meeting ended when it was supposed to. It was 12:00am and no sign of him. I was getting stressed, I hate being late to things. I think it’s kind of rude actually. I called Eric. Good he was still at his house, I told him I would be late. That I would go to the mall around 12:30 1:00. 12:30 and my dad still didn’t arrive. He had just called telling my mom he was passing at m aunt’s and that he was heading home. When he arrived everyone decided to have lunch here. And that’s so not how it was supposed to work. So, I was forced to eat. Of course, I was the first to finish, because I didn’t want to leave my boyfriend waiting. Everyone took so long, they kept talking and getting more and more food. When they finally finished I was already in the car. We were heading of when my mom remembered she forgot her cell phone and my aunt wanted to go to the bathroom. It’s amazing how everything goes wrong when it’s not supposed to. It was 12:40 and we were finally going to the mall. I met Eric when I arrived. He was already there.

We went to the movies. We went for “Quebrando a Banca”. Sorry, but I can’t tell details about this movie because it was totally erased from my mind. Seriously, it’s nothing naughty. I just don’t remember a thing about this movie. Not even a scene.

I remember the second movie though.

We got out of the movies and we wanted to see another one. We saw on the TV with the schedule of movies that “Encurralados” was the next movie. We tried to find out what that movie was about but there were no signs of it. So we were like, Okay let’s just go and there we see what it’s about. I was kind of scared of that because of something that happened before. Lemme tell about that:

We went with some friend to the mall. Eric, Bia, Eduardo and I. We were going to the movies and then we saw this movie: “Signos da Cidade”. We didn’t even know what it was about. But still, we went. When the movie started it was Brazilian. (Bad, bad, bad) I hate Brazilian movies, no prejudice or anything it’s just that they have no stories. They are or about a guy’s life in the favela or about a weird Brazilian saint with a guy that is supposed to be funny but is not. This movie (Signos da Cidade) was the typical Brazilian movie but WORSE. Way worse. If I generalize all Brazilian movies to that, then I can say that: Brazil = Porn. That film was all about porn. It was so gross. And the grossest thing was that the age to get in was 14! Common, I’m 14 and I so don’t wanna see that! The weirdest thing is that everyone in the movies was watching it as if it was normal. Guys, you might be thinking I’m exaggerating things. But I’m not. A kiss, okay. Sex but not showing things… okay. But it was all over! the camera focused.. THERE! Honestly, it was the grossest thing ever!!! And the worst thing was that the actors and actresses were old! So imagine this: OLD PORN! Ewwwww I don’t like any type of porn but old porn! No one deserves this. Bia and Eduardo left the movies. Eric and I didn’t cuz we had better things to do… We tried to ignore the weird noises and what was happening in the movies.. hard doing that. After that movie, I am never, ever going to see a Brazilian movie again!

Going back to yesterday. We went to see “Encurralados”. It was not like Signos da Cidade. First because it was American! yay! hahaha And it was actually a very good movie. I really liked the story and the ending. Which I can’t tell because it will give away the movie.

In the middle of that movie my stomach started hurting because I was hungry. It was funny because I had to breathe in and breathe out as if I was having a baby or something. Eric made fun of me. Some minutes later he started “screaming” (he didn’t scream because we were at the movies but it was as if) that his stomach was hurting. First, I was “angry” (not really angry but pissed of) that he was making fun of me because he was doing the same things I did but exaggerating. When I saw it was for real I started laughing so much. I laughed so hard my stomach started hurting because I was laughing. He also laughed which made his situation worse.

The energy went off during that movie. Everything went dark. It was so scary/funny. Because it was out of nowhere. When it came back the guy of the movies was backing up the film to where it had stopped. It was funny because it was showing on the big screen and you know when the image is like fast. I always laugh about that, stupid I know, but still funny for me.

When that movie ended we wanted to see another one. But since the energy had just went off the TVs were off to. So we couldn’t know the schedule of the movies. We waited in a HUGE line to get the tickets. I asked the lady what was the next film. She said: “Homem de Ferro”. I really didn’t want to see that movie, but it was the only option. It was 19:12 and the movie would start at 19:15. So we got the tickets and “ran” to the movie room. It was so full of people it was scary. And the scariest part was that people kept coming in and never stopped! It was then, the adventure began. I’m gonna do this with characters because it’s faster and funnier. And I’m going to try to translate it because it was all in Portuguese:

Carol: I don’t want to watch this movie.
Eric: Me neither
Carol: Let’s change movies.
Eric: Okay, I’m going out there to see where we can go. Stay here and I’ll call you to tell you where I am and then you come.
Carol: Okay.
(Eric went and I stayed there with my cell phone on my hand. Some times later Eric appears in the entrance of the movie room)
Eric: (making a signal with his hand for me to go there)
Carol: (I went)
Eric: We just have to turn left it’s the room beside this one.
(Mission impossible music on hahahaha)
(When we left the room two security guys were passing)
Eric: (whispering) let’s go to the bathroom.
Carol: together?!
Eric: No! Stay there till the securities guys are out.
(I went in the bathroom and kept looking at myself in the mirror. There was a cleaning lady there and she thought I was weird. She was looking at me in a weird way.)
Eric: cough!
Carol: (leave the bathroom)
Eric: Let’s go.
Carol: (start walking fast to the movies room)
Eric: Walk normally.
Carol: Okay
(We get in the other movie room)
Eric: Okay now you can run.
Carol: (run)
Eric: Not that fast!
Carol: hahhaahah

We sat in the front of the movies. I looked at my cell phone and it was off. How was I expecting him to call me if it was off! I started laughing so much. Then we started laughing. Like really, really hard. We laughed for about 30 – 40 minutes. Then we did our thing. hahahaha And then I was sleepy so I almost slept but I didn’t because there were too many shootings going on. The movie age was 16 so good no one saw us there. Hehehe

I loved the mall yesterday very adventurous. We (Eric and I) would make a very good FBI couple hahaah or drug dealer’s hahahaha. Eric Bond and Carol Bond. Okay, that’s weird. Never mind. As always… pretend I’m normal.
