Man, what a day! Seriously, Alhandra is wild. I woke up thinking it’d be chill, just me and my violins. But nah, life had other plans.
So, I’m in my workshop on Rua da Liberdade, right? Just finished this killer violin. I mean, it was a masterpiece. I was feeling like a rockstar. Then, boom! My neighbor’s cat, that little menace, jumps on my workbench. I’m like, “Dude, get off my stuff!” But it just stares at me like it owns the place. Ugh!
After that, I decide to take a stroll down Avenida 25 de Abril. The sun’s shining, people are out, and I’m vibing. I pass by this cute café, and they’ve got the best pastéis de nata. I’m like, “I need one!” So, I grab one, and it’s warm and flaky. Heaven! But then, I spill coffee all over my shirt. Classic me, right?
I’m walking, coffee-stained and all, when I bump into this old dude. He’s got this wild beard and a twinkle in his eye. Turns out, he used to be a violinist too! We start chatting about music, and he tells me about the time he played in Lisbon. I’m all ears, man. It’s like I’m talking to a legend.
But then, outta nowhere, this kid on a bike zooms past and knocks over a trash can. Trash everywhere! I’m like, “Seriously?!” I mean, come on, Alhandra, keep it together! I help clean it up, and the old dude laughs. “Welcome to Alhandra!” he says. I can’t help but chuckle too.
After that chaos, I head to the riverfront. The Tagus is glistening, and I’m just soaking it all in. I sit on a bench, thinking about life, violins, and how I’m gonna sell this new piece. But then, I see this group of kids playing music. They’re jamming on the street, and it’s beautiful. I’m feeling all the feels.
But wait, it gets better! One of the kids spots me and says, “Hey, mister! You make violins, right?” I’m like, “Yeah, that’s me!” They ask if I can show them how to play. I’m like, “Sure, why not?” So, I pull out my phone and start recording. It’s a mess, but a fun mess. We’re all laughing, and I’m thinking, “This is why I love Alhandra.”
Then, I head back home, still buzzing from the day. I’m walking down Rua da Escola, and I see the sunset. It’s like the sky is on fire. I stop, take a deep breath, and think, “Man, life is crazy, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything.”
Finally, I get home, and that cat is back. Seriously, it’s like it’s stalking me. I shoo it away, but it just sits there, looking at me like I’m the weirdo. I laugh, grab my tools, and start working on my next violin.
What a day, right? Alhandra, you’ve got my heart.
