Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia. Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.
Sim, há janeiros que parece que nunca mais acabam. Este só não foi desses porque, já que o tempo se arrasta, aproveitei para dar um forte avanço no trabalho da tese. E isto ao som de Taylor Swift, que finalmente me conquistou.
