March 2. Adventure.

Today was adventure day, Professor Ulises took Sarah and I  to see the university,  the museum, a big park, an arab restaurant and the place where he works.  What I remember from the museum was the art has different ways to be seen. While I was watching  a book who was translated, Pr. Ulises said, “ a translator is a traitor.”  Meaning translating is a hard work because the person has to experience and know the other culture of the other country to better translate. I agree with that.  In the park, I saw big spiders and ants, I was surprised how big they were. I loved that park that I will come back later. We went to a restaurant. Here Pr. Ulises talked how we are getting better at the language. I was happy to eat a  kibe Assadou but next time I will order kafta since my ex roommate Jennifer loves that.  Later, I got to see the place he works.  He then started reading a phrase from Nietzsche  in Portuguese and said, “ Muitos homes fracasan trocan pensadores porque tem boas mentes” and he mention is like what buda says, “ Aprenda toda as coisas mas confia as cosas dentro de voce.”  Also he said that nice phrase can be seen as the Chinese story, “ si voce quer mais te en sua copa, voce tem que terminar.”  Actually, I got confuse on this one. I think is it means that you have to forget what you learn in order to earn more  knowledge or to make  your own ideology. Also,  I had to define what the poem of symbols were meaning. I had a hard time on that since I don’t observe art and I just think objects are just the way they are. But those poem cards were hard to read.  This made me thing how small things and figure  can give a big message to people.   Then, Sarah and I had to give a presentation about anything. I heard Sarah story  first and then mind. After all that, we  drank coffee with other people. They had bread, cookies on the table and were happy to have us. I was happy to see and feel how wonderful people enjoy talking to Sarah and I . It felt like a piece of home a really good family who all it has its love to give.  After  I saw the trophies and the art a guy made.  Then Sarah played the piano aww such a great day but to bad it was time to go home.
