5 stages of grief

1. denial

2. anger

3. bargaining

4. depression

5. acceptance

According to the 1st episode of Greys Anatomy 6th season these are the 5 stages of grief.
I've been there, I also saw a lot of family people or friends there...because of death, because of lost love or frustrated relationships.
When you get to acceptance...is it because you get to finally live with or without it?!
In the end it resumes to, I think, three things: hope, faith & love.

This picture was taken this morning, while I was going to work, my hands were freezing...I can't wait for Spring to come, I'm guessing it has to be amazing here...don't take me wrong this all white snow thing is beautiful, the sound of the snow melting and falling from plants is very amusing, but I'm not one to live in such a cold weather.
The good thing is that, as many things in life, the weather works in circles...up and down, out and about.

SNOW

I usually sleep through all night but last one I wake up...looked outside and everything was strangely white, absolutely beautiful!
It's the 1st time in my life I get to see all this snow, the funny thing is that it isn't that much snow at all. Even more curious is that after getting out of my house, it was an adventure to get to the tube without falling or slipping, in central London there wasn't any snow...yeah, no snow at all, nowhere to be seen...because of cars, polution, etc, etc...

It's cold here, a kind of cold that doesn't go away even with the heat on, inside the flat...I'm freezing all the time, today I gave it a thought...this is like the 4th time I get sick here (really my nose is killing me...) it's only going to be 5 months I'm here...
I need to go to the doctor and make a full check...I don't understand, I usually don't get this much sick, I take vitamin C every morning, oranges and orange juice, I'm working out, I eat healthy...I think my body is just not used to this crazy weather...also, all the stress and competitive environment, boff...

I just bought my ticket to go to Lisbon in February, it cost me almost £64...it's amazing how much they charge for tickets on holiday seasons...
From this moment, I'm counting the days to see my family, my friends, my city...
I've got a lot of things to look forward to, but...

And guess what, it's almost time to pay bills AGAIN!
It's also time for Christmas...and I'm almost alone in one of the more dinamic cities in Europe...I'm not sad, I'm just curious.

Another really amazing thing is...here comes 2010, yes, it's the end of another DECADE...OMG!!!
