Translating december 25


December 25 could be translated in every language as love.
It is more than an ordinary day
It is the most beautiful love that someone have already known

December 25 is more than a date
Is about being peace and hope for the
people you love and you don't

December 25 is when you feel
you could be better
And be a light in someone's life
like Jesus did when he was born

Shooting update


         Today I invited my father to training with me but he couldn't. So I spent my free time to shoot at home in a paper target from 10 meters. I shot with scope and without scope, but most of them was by open sights. Last weekend my friends and I went to a farm and I shot with scope all time, so today was the time to training shoots by open sights. 
         
          In this training I used the first ten bullets to adjust the crosshairs and then more twenty bullets on this target below that shows some goods groups. I also went to my friend's house tonight to tuning my air rifle but we can't do it because some issues. But I'm sure that after this changes I'll get more accuracy in shots. I hope could do it after july to get ready to the local competition.

A duel night

Last night I was in my friend's house and we played 5 games of AC The Search. I show my build (the first edition without expansion cards) and taught the rules in about 5 minutes.
The first game he won playing as Crimanal. After that he decided only play as Police and there he touch in my weakness. I have just played as Criminal one or two times. Anyway he won the second game but in the third and fourth game I could won. Making the score 3x2 this night.

We also figure out some issues like:

-If a criminal card was in a corner and the police put 2 barrels in adjacents cards. What criminal should do ?

-If the criminal use the On step ahead card to make the criminal and come back being in out of range of police.

I'll update this post with some photos soon. I'm making courage to write more reports and reviews (Firsts reviews will be in portuguese in posted on BGG)
I'll download again the files of the new edition of this game to see what it will change and play against him again. Is also important to say that he is another friend of mine that loved the game in the first time that he saw it.

My first 10



Shooting is my new hobby, since my father gave me an air rifle after the local tournament I've been training and shooting with him in our home and farm. I'm pretty new and have a lot of things to learn and spend too much time training, but i'm loving it.
After Brazilian's Carnival holydays, when we get home I start my training and finally I get my first ten shoot, this is kind the perfect shoot that an airgunner could get.
We gonna have another tournament in June and I'm so excited about it. Well, if I keep traning in this way, for sure I'll have good chances to compete. But until there, I'll having fun shooting and training with my dad. I'm also reading and watching everything about shoot and air rifle. What is cool because i'm thinking seriously in record some videos of my training.

Strange power

Most of employers that I have know is kind of strange, not because they looks like an Alien but something with their actions. Some people cannot see this and have afraid of the boss. I bet all of them have a strange power. You can see in a conversation between you and him, you always have in mind what they are thinking (He going to fire me ? He saw my awesome work yesterday ?) or anything else. They also act perfectly same as each other. Every boss start a fire conversation in a closed room and probably all of your co-workers know that you going to fired.

I cannot say if it is same in all places. I really don’t know anything about hospital, for example. Maybe their employers are different than other I know.

Employers have an especial power of transformer every situation in an embarrassing situation. For example, you are eating a cranberry cake in your room and suddenly you see he appear walking in front of you. What happened? You try hide your cake and for nature power, the cake fall down and your table and shirt get dirty. Your co-worker ask what happened and you say something related to dusty, what seems totally different than what really happened and nobody believe in you. My point is: Your boss just transformers you into a liar with a simple walk and a cranberry cake.

I think this things is part of life and will be like this forever. I hope be wrong and one day this strange power over. But at least one thing nowadays cannot get worst: Do not exist people who are addicted in act as a boss.

In my first blog, I used to play a word game with friends. I ask somebody to say to me ten words and then I have to write a text with all these words. This one is the first wrote in English. My friend who gave me the words was Leonardo Barreto. (miss our games session bro). You can see below what words is.

Challenge words: Strange, forever, between, addicted, employer, hospital, afraid, dust, cranberry, power

The Bright Sword

My father used to tell us
The tale of the Bright Sword
While listening to him
I'd looked at the campfire
And in the flames I'd see
The heat of mighty battles

"The Seven Kings of Lassadar
Led Major Battles against
The Shadow Army
and I was present in the third Great Victory"

He then would stop and say
"I can see light in your eyes, my son"

Shadows in my dream

I was sleeping the first time
That I saw the Shadows.
The night was quiet
But the beat of my heart was loud

The shadows were coming for me
Swallowing my face
I woke up with my mother's arms
Holding me strong as she could
She said: "It's just a dream, my little boy"

But unfortunately,
Some years after that night
The Shadows would appear not only in my dreams

Post Scriptum

This poetry was made after I play the solo game called Shadows upon Lassadar designed by Todd Sanders. You can know more about game here.
