S.K.I.N. obsessed or Japanese Music III

So the first ever concert of the Japanese Rock band I mentioned in the previous post was yesterday (or better today at dawn). And I've just spend the all day looking for details... (crazy me :P)

It seems that they completely rocked!!! :D

Japanese Music!! Part II

I was supposed to be inserting my supervisor's corrections to my Introduction Chapter.. I'm completely distracted... I'm so wishing to be across the Atlantic Ocean (and almost all the USA) right now... I would love to go and see the premiere of S.K.I.N. (a new band that includes the two Japanese artists that I referred some posts ago)...

Well, I will see if can concentrate...

A good day!!

Today (well, yesterday) was a good day!! In 2 days a wrote a full section of the chapter I'm working on.

This was after almost 4 days of blockage... Even though I'm happy I was able to write it this fast, I still get a bit frustrated because if I wasn't blocking so much I would have my thesis almost written by now...

Well, one has to accept what is given to her...

P.S. - Wednesday I´m back to Porto to talk to my supervisor. (Wish me luck.)

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!!!

In less than 1 month I will have my Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows copy almost read!!!

I don't know if it will be almost read, but at least I think I will be deep into it!!! :D

Good News for Women entering Menopause (in Público)

As most people know a woman can suffer several side effects when entering menopause, such has osteoporosis, depression, night sweats, and others. Most of us, when young, laugh a little about it, but it can have very serious consequences. In order to diminish these side effects, women are typically treated with a combination of estrogen and progesterone (sexual hormones responsible for the women menstruation period).

However, a few years ago (2002-2004), a study revealed that these treatments increased the risk of cardiovascular diseases. Which led to panic among patients and physicians alike, and many stopped their treatments, suffering the full potential of these side effects.

Today, an article was published that shatters this findings and states that if the treatment is started at an early phase it will not only help avoid this side effects but will also help prevent cardiovascular diseases.

Here´s the link to the news:
