23rd November is a special date for Joana and I. Its the day we met each other on DeviantART way back in 2004.

I still have her original comment saved on my computer from where she had seen my photo on my DA page which I thought was silly lol but she liked it =x

Then in April 2006 we first got the opportunity to meet each other, I flew to Portugal to visit her for 5 days, which were literally the best days of our lives at that point. I only booked 5 days in a local hotel because we thought that if we both dont get along very well, we wont want a week or 2 weeks together. In the end we both wished we had more than 5 days and it was a very weepy good bye...most painful moment of my life for sure...

Luckily I was able to stay at Joanas place the next time which meant I could afford a longer stay, 8 days! It was a great August though.

The next visit was over the christmas holidays for 11 days I believe it was, meaning I spent my birthday there. They even had a cake for me and sung happy birthday lol, it was really nice. We also saw in the new year together, a very tender and special moment where on the stroke of midnight I gave Joana a ring, which I called a 'forever ring'. Again...it was a painful goodbye come 3rd of January...

The fourth visit was Easter, on similar days to that of my first visit, but this time it was for 2 weeks! Finally a full length visit we both thought. On this visit I think we took hundreds of photos and videos lol.

Visit number 5 was also 2 weeks, maybe 15 days actually, and it was in late August 2007. This is the visit most recent in my memory and the one that showed us how life would be if we both lived together, and things look positive.
There were one or two down moments in this visit, but as always we fix them almost immediately and not let them affect the rest of the visit. Our goodbye was cut short in this visit when an airport security guard said that Joana could not pass a certain point...which we didnt expect. Usually we can both go to check in before we say goodbye...but not this time.

It was a tearless good bye, but painful and short...not as either of us had intended. Its horrible thinking you got 30mins left, then being told you gotta say good bye now when you arent prepared...

The 6th and last visit is on the 15th December. No no its not cos Joana and I are splitting up, but because she will be coming here to the UK at last. It will be so strange but nice being with Joana in the town I grew up in.

This is our 3rd anniversary and we plan to celebrate many more

Home once again after visit number 5 to

s. 19th August - 2nd September.

It seems no matter how long I book these visits to last, they all seem being shorter and shorter as each time Jo and I have more fun than the last. Sometimes I tried to bore myself, just to make the time seem longer so a moment could laster longer. In the car to her home, there were a few moments of silence. They weren't awkward, they were ''make this last as long as possible''. Even before I went, I had dreams of waking up and the visit being over before it had even started...

In the two weeks, we did many many things together. From the peaceful times in the park, watching the ducks, to roller blading around the large underground garage hall, to going on the beach, sharing ice creams, and going off-roading in a large former Portuguese Army jeep. That was amazing, better than any rollercoaster or anything because it was real. You weren't safely strapped in, and secured to a metal track. There were no rear seatbelts, and each jump and bump was 'anything could happen'.

I stayed at Joana's house again, so thank you to her parents who trust me enough to let me stay. We arranged my visit to end on the 2nd, as we thought school/uni would begin on about the 3rd...but it doesn't for either of us -_-. We both go back around the 17th. If we knew that, we coulda had an extra week or just had the visit later, cheaper tickets, more spending money.

Hopefully this December, if Joanas parents consent, she will be able to spend a couple weeks in England for christmas. She can't (and I can't) wait to go around London, Camden Market, Canterbury, Ashford, and Kent generally. Maybe she'll get to see decent snow, possible...maybe. X3

I've been sitting here on the laptop playing music and sorting files out that have just swarmed the laptop and...this guy comes talking to me. I recognise the name from a year ago maybe and its some anthro artist. We began talking.

I'm guessing they came to me cos they wanted a nice furry chat or something, but they hadn't realised in the year they haven't spoken to me, I had moved on a bit. Now I'm no furry hater, DRAWING and LIKING anthros is fine, I've drawn my share of anthro art with Myphrill and what-not, but at what kind of age do you say ''Okay, I think I am being too obsessed and SEXUALLY attracted to little fluffy characters''?

I recall one person I knew, he was about...19 at the time I think, maybe 18 - not sure. He's a fairly big guy, 6ft tall approx weighing 140lbs maybe. He made paper fox ears, put them on his head, went to his mum and said something along the lines of ''Mum, I'm a cute little foxie!''

Is this not the behaviour of elementary/primary school kids?

As you may have seen, DeviantART is a wonderful place for people to meet, make friends, and even fall in love, but unfortunately the couples don't always work out. I'm especially talking about couples that stretch across continents, most commonly across Europe and America. Many of the DA 'anthro and furries' most popular couples, have been defeated by the distance between them, and the laws of immigration between their countries.

That is what makes me personally, extra excited at the fact that Joana

will be moving to Kent, England in late 2008 into renting accomodation with myself, largely thanks to the bursary/grant and student loan money I've been given from the art university I attend in Kent.

Over the past few days, Joana and I have been hugely excited at the idea of being able to live together so soon and being able to get together against impossible odds. I've seen couples inside the same continent break down due to the distance, cost of visiting each other, and cost of hotels etc.

When Joana finally lives here, it will have cost me well in excess of Â£1500 in flights, Â£1200 in spending money while in Portugal, but it by 2008 it will have all been worth it, for Joana to live in her spiritual home; England.

Hopefully we'll just have a room to share at Â£50 a week or so, near my university where (luckily) its the cheapest place to rent in the whole of Kent.

(Kent is the 2nd most expensive place to live in UK after London).

This has made us both kinda emotional even though it's so far away still, and there's still 3 or 4 visits before she comes here, but we're excited like its happening next week.

I adore you so much my angel

Hmmm what to say...well it's summer now, and here it's just rained, rained and rained. So 'global warming' is a load of crap. Basically all I'm doing is working 3 days a week and counting down the days until 19th August, when I visit Joana for the 5th time. x3

Two weeks, until easter break? Yeah but more importantly, until I see Joana again in the flesh x3 and she has such beautiful flesh, and by flesh I mean skin. So smooth and lovely to touch x3

Every now and then I just daydream about the moment we'll meet again, that moment in the airport, and how perfect it will be. I just imagine time stopping for a moment as our lips touch again for the first time since January 3rd, but thank god it's just been a 90day wait. In the past, we have had to wait 130days from one meet to the next (from first week of August to the last week of December.)

After easter, hopefully Joana will be able to spend a couple of weeks in England, which has been her lifelong dream actually, plus she gets to see me =o, but London more importantly lol

Thanks for always being there for me darling, you deserve everything and the best

She is just one of those people. She gives and gives, never asking for much in return; usually nothing. Joana gives from the heart and I've heard of people trying to take advantage of her generousity. People asking her for art requests, but not just one, usually more than a few just because Joana has said she'll do some.

She works her soul off and her commissions are only a few Euros, not even enough to buy a magazine (those gaming or pc sort with a demo). She sits at home busying herself, often not looking for a reward. She just gives and works for her own enjoyment, and for the thanks other people give her.

She's such a gentle soul...kind, caring, loving and more understanding and forgiving than anybody I could imagine... For me, she's the best girlfriend I could ever imagine. She's stuck by me for over 2 years, during the very good times and the very bad times. While we're upset and also while we're happy.

The arguments we have, as every couple do, never dampen our spirits and hopes of one day being permenantly together. We both dream because at the moment it's all we can do. I want to make her years with me, the greatest of her life for one very simple reason...

She saved my life, she showed me the light, showed me the power of true love and is still teaching me how to be a better boyfriend. At first it was hard to change, and I wasn't too willing, but now I'd say I'm over 90% changed and matured and as a consequence we are happier. Don't be mislead to think it was all my working because Joana has changed also, she's grown and matured and changed in her own ways.

We've both been changing for each other, for the better, but I know without Joana there'd be no reason special enough worth working towards. Joana is the light i strive to reach.

Joana,

I know I don't do this enough. I'm not over furnished in the romantic department, and such things don't come naturally to me. Romantic public gestures over the internet are for me, as natural as writing with my left hand. I wouldn't really do it unless hinted to do so...

I know we've argued about it, and we always make up but then sooner or later, we're upset again. I wish I was more like the people you tell me about on msn messenger. They all sound like people I'd rather be, like they find it so easy to be how they are.

You feel I don't put you first for certain reasons...and I know it takes your pushing to get me to do things like blocking certain people or throwing away my artwork. I never like doing certain things...but ultimately I always do them for us. I know I should do it on my own without the push anyway...

I want you to feel safe Joana, I wanna make you feel as good as you do to me. I know I've done things wrong and they will keep in your memory forever. I feel safe perhaps because you've never done such wrong things as I did. In my eyes you're the perfect one and I'm the worst boyfriend ever, I think so much higher of you than myself.

Each night you save my life, as I said on msn

, each night you make me grateful and appreciative of knowing you; a kind, gentle, caring soul. I wish I could be just a quarter of the wonderful person you are...I'd be so much better. I wish I knew better ways to express my love to you. Maybe this is showing it better than I have before, I won't know until you read it and I see your reaction or reply...

The good things we both know far outweigh the bads. While I may be underaverage in the love department, I've grown up and matured and no longer do friends come before you. No longer am I as childish as some we knew. Thanks to you I'm no longer so ego driven as I once was.

I know I've changed alot since 2005 for you, but I also know I've not finished changing. I need to be less sentimental about my artwork, I need to be more thoughtful like I can be in real life.

If it wasn't for our moments in real life in Portugal, we may be in the hole that most online relationships fall into. Just being online, we begin to question what each other means. We lose the ability to understand each others feelings and moods, we jump the gun more, and get overly aggressive.

We get so close in real life, that going back to online is such a painful thing...like two conjoined twins being torn apart. We love to be together, hate to be apart and love to hear the sound of each others voices.

I remember as I walked home from a local pub from seeing my dad, as I walked home in the dark just hearing your voice down the end of a phone made me feel safe and protected. As if some magical shroud had encased me in an invincible shield. Nobody just from talking on a phone to me has made me feel that safe before. Joana you make me feel like no girl ever could...you give me true undivided attention, affection and love.

I know I'm not the best, the most romantic or the smartest. I know I've done wrong but despite things I've done through growing up and puberty, I always feel I'm different to the other boys I've met through life.

The header above is a link to Joana and I´s websites.

Happy New Year to you all, I also hope everyone had a great christmas and got what they asked for. I certainly did as I got to spend my birthday, christmas and New Year with my darling angel Joana.

Together (mostly Jo´s work =o) we have made a website. It´s still under construction but there is a guestbook everyone is welcome to sign ^^ There is also a tabboard.

Last night was very special for Joana and I. We spent the new year moment at a beautiful park, and we were at a bench overlooking a lake which reflected the fireworks. On that moment I made her cry, evil me ;; I got down on one knee =o We arent engaged, yet because of the distance and trouble of seeing each other, not to mention shes only 17, but I wanted her to know I´ll always love her. So I called it a ´Forever Ring´

I hope you all have a great 2007 and make and stick to your new years resolutions.

Feliz 2007!!!

So Happy

Not a day goes by when I don't wish to be by Joanas side. 1000 miles between us...but when we're apart it feel like lightyears. I can't wait until 23rd December, but I really don't care so much that it's my birthday because I'm more excited that I'm seeing Joana again on that day. From 23rd of Dec to 3rd Jan we will become the happiest couple in the world, setting an example to the world. An example of simple, pure, undirtied love

Thank you for so many great time darling

Don't expect much from me in the future. I've just not got the time for DeviantART anymore nor the patience to put up with problems around here like some my girlfriend keeps experiencing. Her journals being erroneously deleted without notice or warning.

In the past shes had her watchers and friends lists wiped clean AND her list of faved deviations and while it doesn't cost anything to put all several hundred names back, its just a huge inconvenience and while DA compensated her with a subscription, its just not worth the hassle and aggrevation.

Anyway we'll keep our art up, since it's more bother to take them down than just leave them be.

We both have Storm Artist accounts which we tend to every now and then and we both still accept commissions as normal, thanks to everyone who bought some.

IM SELLING AN ANIME DVD ON EBAY! APPLESEED (2003) SPECIAL EDITION IN BRUSHED STEEL EFFECT CASE.
[link]

University so far hasn't been as hard or scary as I once imagined it to be. I've fully enrolled now, started receiving the first installments of my student loan and grant money and know all the names of my new class buddies. Getting there is still a bit of a bitch; a 3 part train journey. two journeys of about 25-35mins and one 3min journey but my tutor has helped to soften the impact of the £10.80 a day travel. I don't have to go in on wednesdays as it is just a morning photoshop tutorial and for the first 5 weeks its basic stuff. Tutorials fit for those who have never used Windows before even.

So with that, I'm attending 3 days per week. Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Friday is free study. I'm actually studying Digital 3D Design - probably shoulda mentioned that at the beginning of this journal, and it's a 3 year Bachelor of Arts Degree course. From what I've seen so far, I'd recommend it and it's worth the money when you're able to use 2.7GHz dual core G5 Macs with 4.5GB RAM aswell as wacom tablets and a scanner for every pc almost.

The uni sits ontop of a hill which overlooks the River Medway at Chatham which for me is really nice compared to views I'm used to further inland. There's a bar, pool tables, cash machine, sofa's - its normal uni stuff but for me coming from a art college which was in comparison; dire, its awesome and feels quite American in ways.

Commissions

I've never said this on DeviantART before because I've always made my art the way I wanna for my own enjoyment but when I have (so far) £6000 of university debts (will go upto £18,000 by 2009) I need to make some money ^^

To help me tackle this, I've decided to start taking a few commissions. Prices are arranged directly with me via notes, email or instant messaging. Best thing is to tell me what you want, I'll tell you when I can do it and it'll all be done in a friendly way.

By the way - YES I accept PAYPAL in any currency ^^

Thanks for your time

Example of my abilities.

Head on over to

s page for some real bargains as far as commissions go! Her art is filled with natural and beautiful love filled scenes

Prices start from one Euro! Not even £1 or $2!! Gloss prints from 7!!! Please, Joana has been unable to get a job and is in school for a little longer than she would've liked and the extra bit of money would go along way, aswell as giving her confidence a huge boost it so thoroughly deserves.

She can accept any currency through paypal to the address jojoneto3000@hotmail.co.uk where I can give her the money in person when I see her in December. It would be nice to have 20 to hand to her for all her hard work on artwork, and really I've seen crap sell for more than she's charging.

Latest

Grades

Well...The next steps in life for me begin very soon. This week I got my BTEC National Diploma in Multimedia, a D/D/M grade. (2nd highest out of 7 possible grades ranging from P/P/P to M/M/M to D/D/D. P = Pass, M = Merit and D = Distinction.) This means I'm accepted into my chosen (only choice I made) university; University College for the Creative Arts (Formerly the Kent Institue of Art and Design) for £3,000 per year, for 3 years. Plus any maintenance loans I take out, £3,000 for this year, and £250 in grants.

NOTE : £3000 = 4454 - US$5717 - CA$6310

Tablet

I had to go to the post office depot to collect the grades. I did hope it was my new tablet I put an order in for, but seems the store is still awaiting for it to arrive in their store. Another week and I think I'll cancel. Bitch at me all you like, it's not a Wacom lol. It's a Trust V2, which recieved some very good feedback from customers. A few stating it's better than a Wacom for the price. More quality per £/$, if you can measure quality like that lol. Can't wait to get it, it's A4 in size and the equivalent Wacom is over £120 more. (178 - US$228)

Joana Meeting No.3

The money saved on the tablet neatly goes towards paying for a return flight from London to Lisbon. I'll be leaving on the 23rd December (my birthday incidently - 20 years) and returning on the 2nd January, staying at the Neto residence again. Already talk has arisen between us of living in another country inside the European Union; England (Another country for Joana that is). If anybody has moved from one EU nation to another, please send

a note explaining roughly how to move from nation to nation and what paperwork is required (if any). Within 5 years, Joana and I hope to be settled down together in either London or Kent, depending on where I can find work most likely. I'll probably have to commute, which leads us onto the next topic.

Driving

Yup I'm nearly 20 and can't drive (UK age to drive is 17). I've never had the money, it always went into my pc or just general use like phone top ups, food, clothes and other things. Now with this £3000 maintenance grant (£1000 of which I recieve on the 11th September) I can set about learning to drive. I had a go in my mum's car, to feel what the clutch is like. I managed a smooth pull away, but braked sharply then stalled, those pedals are horribly sensitive XD The car Joana and myself like, is the Smart Roadster, which doesn't have a clutch. Hooray for me! It's just so cute and, well not cheap but I can work towards it can't I

Kate-Light Fans Read This.

Joana's account has mistakenly become the target of dA admins who repeatedly, wrongly think her account is in the list of accounts to be closed. (They admitted this when they wiped her journals mistakenly) She was compensated for this with a free 3 month subscription from the admins.
Along with this they also deleted her user avatar, which is more easily replaced.

Lesson learnt by admins? Not by a long shot. Joana's list of watchers (those shes watches and those who watch her) has been wiped by the admins. You won't be updated on her art and she won't be updated on yours unless you read this and go to Joana's page and devwatch her. She is rewatching everyone she can remember but she cant be expected to remember all 150 plus people she watched before.

IF YOU WATCHED JOANA, DELETE HER AND THEN REWATCH HER FOR YOUR DEVWATCH TO REGISTER PROPERLY.

Joana after going to the help desk the first time is having to battle with staff just to keep her account from being wrongly deleted; slowly, and piece by piece. She hopes and I expect DeviantART to compensate her with another 3 months subscription for the 2 years or more collection of friends in the lists she had built up. It's hugely inconvenienced her and after what happened with the Myphrili account, is making her week even worse.

Hop on over to her page and devwatch her if you used to, and even if you've never seen her work

Joana darling, I hope these problems go away soon. You are my world and deserve the sunshine, but right now its being eclipsed by a moon of problems ;; I love you sweetheart, hang in there and soon everything will get better I promise

Always look on the bright side of life *whistles* x3

JOURNAL

The Myphrili account was banned. Hooray. Why it was created in the first place, only the creator will ever know. I'm not sure anyone I know / knew is immature enough to do that, and stupid enough to leave it full of flaws which made their plan easy to spot and ridicule. It became open to flaming, although support is appreciated; flaming the Myphrili account wasn't needed. The creator doesn't deserve so many pageviews and so much of peoples time frankly. This is a growing problem not only on dA, but on other places like MySpace, identity theft. Thankfully dA has lots of safeguards to proof who the original person is and who is the obvious faker.

Joana was hit hardest by this, thinking it was me who wrote a disgusted piece on how supposedly 'myself' wanted to leave her. The imitator only had information from DA to go on about Joana and I, making his act very shallow. Once the thin surface was scratched off, everything was apparent. I speak for all guys here when I say, we won't dump our girlfriends, and especially not over an art website over trivial things.
All your support for Joana is very appreciated and has helped her get over this.

Although more attention was given to me, which I feel bad about. Joana has most hurt by this and deserved more of your attention.

I feel sorry for the creator of the fake account. They must have very meaningless, empty, sad and pathetic lives if they can spend the time creating the Myphrili account, saving my artwork, posting it as their own. Copying and pasting every image description and the latest journal entry at the time. Just to try and pull a trick which was as convincing as George Bush imitating Stephen Hawking.

Conclusion? I'll support any friend who this happens to as everyone showed great support for Joana and I. And I hope the party responsible for the Myphrili account come forward, the honesty would be appreciated at least.

s DeviantART page had some 'malfunctions' today. Thats the only word I can use to describe what happened.

Her avatar disappeared (which she reapplied) and all her journals disappeared without a trace.

Is this affecting anyone else?

MYPHRILI - It's almost unnoticable when in the deviantart username font. Some coward has created this account and posted upsetting messages to my beloved Joana. At first we believed my account was hacked. Thankfully

noticed it was a totally different account.

The account has my artwork there (posted in the last few hours, where as mine spans back over a week) and even my journals (against posted recently, mine span back over a month)

The account has a low pageview count like - 12 or so. Mine has 71,000.

Please, I wish to make it known that [link] is not associated with me in any way. I hope this raises some awareness about the issue.

SERIOUS PART-
Some comments were made on s journal, we were fooled for a while until selfdestructor noticed it. The fiend created the account, to try and act as me and dump my girlfriend pretending to be me in the most ugly, insensitive manner possible. Using his limited knowledge of what Joana and I say to each other.

Joana was reduced to tears and shaking, because she thought it was me. We both did not notice the fact it was a different account. Joana has very likely been more affected by this than me. I don't need the sympathy but thanks, im sure Joana would appreciate it more.

IF YOU EVER SEE A RUDE COMMENT FROM WHAT APPEARS TO BE ME, ROLL YOUR MOUSE OVER THE LINK AND IN THE BOTTOM LEFT CORNER IT WILL SAY THE ADDRESS IT LINKS TO. IT WILL SAY myphrili, not myphrill.

Thank you ]]> ~myphrill Account Hacking http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9836984/ http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9836984/ Thu, 24 Aug 2006 09:55:31 PDT

and myself. Which really does narrow down who it is.

This is going to be reported to DeviantART. They will find the IP address of the computer, and they'll find out which deviantart account is most associated with that particular IP address and i sincerely hope it results in some form of ban. This wasn't just to make a fool of someone, this is real with real affects and real consequences.

To make things clear to everyone. Joana and I are still very much in love and this cheap attack which was sneaky and cowardly has not put a dent in our relationship. The hacker was only able to rely on information showed on DeviantART and so if confronted with a question about something thats happened in real life between Joana and I, they will be caught out.

I sincerely hope DeviantART don't take this laying down because this has affected more than what shows on the surface. ]]> ~myphrill Over as suddenly as it began... http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9721646/ http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9721646/ Mon, 14 Aug 2006 17:00:34 PDT

Well the week is over, and I'm back home in England. Joana is once again 1000miles away from me =/, but looking on the bright side of life; we had not lots of awesome moments but one huge moment that lasted the whole week

and I'm returning in December.

I was meant to keep a day to day journal but gosh we just forgot about it since we were out and having the best time of our lives x3.

Saying good-bye at the airport was so hard...as Joana walked away I was so close to tears. My throat hurt abit because it wanted to cry and I was holding it back...suddenly I felt so lonely. I wasn't allowed to take my laptop on the plane because of the recent London Heathrow terror plot so the flight felt much longer which just made being away from Joana harder. (Even though I was flying to London Gatwick, not Heathrow)

I'm pretty sure though Joana and I have no regrets about the week, and that we both did and said everything we wanted to. No one of us felt ''I wish I had / hadn't done / said that.''

Looking on the bright side of life again, at least we both live in the E.U. so one day Joana can easily move to the UK to live.

I'm going to book my next flight to Joana soon so I get it cheaper. I payed £150 the first time I met Joana flying on the Portuguese national airline, and £190 this time flying on 'Monarch'. Monarch are offering the same flight in December (23rd Dec - 2nd Jan) for about £120 at the moment.

If there are other online relationship couples reading this, it honestly can work. The distance between you will be nothing compared to the love you both have for each other.

Joana I love you so much and the countdown has begun again.

Sunday Day 0

I arrived at Lisbon Airport and got my baggage back at about 6pm (Lisbon time is the same as London time / +5hrs from New York) I stepped out the doors into the main lobby of the airport and for about 10 seconds, looked around feeling abit lost. Last time Joana was very easy to spot as she wore pink and jumped up at me. This time she was standing near a cafe and had just arrived. I gave her the Kiki Gaia plushie I bought her and we spent the car journey just hugging, kissing and listening to music.
In the evening I gave the family some gifts for letting me stay at theirs for the week. Joao was so happy with his gift, he went straight to the pc and installed it. (Was a graphics card)

Monday Day 1

My first full day in Marinha Grande and I woke up in Joana's bed this time instead of a 4* hotel bed. I slept so well, her bed is so comfortable x3.
We both went online for a while and had a webcam chat with tails-chan, now Katsuki Lennox I believe ^^. We watched Fight Club on my laptop, which actually wasn't as good as we hoped with Brad Pitt being in it and all.
In the evening we went to Operario.

Tuesday Day 2

Woke up to the sound of Joana coming in my room to snuggle up with me x3 How lovely, something I've dreamt of

We both had some toast and then snuggled on the sofa watching MTV and Cartoon Network. After getting washed we went to McDonalds. Joana had a Chicken Burger and I had a Double Bacon Cheese Burger. We went over to Fabios

where we played, messed about and had a go on 'Os Sims 2' which was in Portuguese so I had no real idea how to play ;;. Had some lovely ice cream in a cone at Cristal Atrium and then returned home

so much love in the air. x3

I actually didn't get around to writing a journal each day lol. Was having too much good times to remember ]]> ~myphrill Tomorrow! http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9600841/ http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9600841/ Fri, 04 Aug 2006 18:05:49 PDT

5th of August is here, and that means it's the penultimate day until Joana and I are reunited for a week, 7 days, over 168hours, 10,080minutes, 604,800seconds. weee x3

I'll be flying out of London Gatwick at 3:15pm GMT and arriving at Lisbon at 5:45 GMT. (no time difference between our countries)

I'll be able to give Joana her kiki plushie and give her such a massive loving hug and smooch x3 Her parents have so kindly let me stay at theirs for the week! Now I'm with Joana 24hours a day, no worries of 'what time do u wanna go back to hotel?' and the hard goodbyes at the hotel door

.

My next journal will be written from Lisbon and I'll write a day by day diary

Today, I began browsing on Gaia. Joana had an old account with some gold already there for me to use. Yesterday I didn't use it much but today I've been more in the mood.

God I love Joana so much, as I was browsing Gaia. I saw the Kiki Plushie. Joana's favourite, an item on Gaia she so desperately wants for her avatar. I quickly thought, she'd love to have the real thing instead. So without skipping a beat I bought it on paypal

I just love her so much, I don't wanna buy her just any old stuff. I knew this would have meaning and shes been saving up the Gaia Gold for weeks to get one, well now she has the real thing. Joana I hope its as good as you've always imagined, you deserve it angel you really do. For lighting up each of my days so easily, with an effortless smile

Both created and donated by

which is really good of her. They were a request by my angel and I don't need to say who that angel is because to me its pretty obvious. Oh okay its Joana, you knew I knew we all know who the angel of the earth is .

Some people might've seen on my MSN username a countdown. 3days ago it said 14 and oddly 5 days ago it said 16. So whats it all about? Its a countdown to when I visit

our angel, for the second time. The works, airport, plane, sponging a car lift from them and crashing at her place for a week cos im too skint for a hotel XD but more importantly it means I'm with Joana 24hours per day.

So I'll be at hers, we'll have mornings to ourselves where we will *text removed* and after that probably go eat, go out into the blistering heat of summer Portugal lol, where I will melt cos we all know an englishmans melting point is about 30'C

Anyway, nothing is planned, what will happen will be spontaneous. Have a nice summer everyone! ]]> ~myphrill Am I back? http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9405016/ http://myphrill.deviantart.com/journal/9405016/ Tue, 25 Jul 2006 08:50:15 PDT (Reposted due to abuse which will be reported if repeated a second time)
