Uma Rosa com Amor


After writing yesterday, I got sick of being in our room and decided to try to talk to Donna Katarina. I'm curious about her life. Plus, I want to learn Portuguese. So I snagged Diane's dictionary and prepared myself for a conversation filled with long pauses and page-ruffling.



As it turned out, Donna Katarina was watching a telenovela, so I still don't know much about her as a person. But I do know about that one thick-necked actor in the hospital, and how he's cheating with another guy's girlfriend, and how another couple was recently reunited in the airport and they had a passionate afternoon while their son was at a birthday party. That was a little awkward to watch with my septuagenarian hostess, but otherwise it was really fun. Besides, she's the one that told me it was a telenovela de paixão.
