BSB 25/05/85 Saturday
At around 11 in the morning, me, Renata and Alexandra went to Renata’s father’s house to watch a movie. Her dad is away and we took the bus to 216. So it was just us watching movies in the video cassette player. We watched a bit of Rock in Rio, B-52s and AC-DC, Angus Young did a mini strip-tease. Later we watched a bit of ‘Profecy II’, really dull… We watched ‘Flashdance’, all of it, then we left at 14:15. Stayed at home, eating and watching tv until 16:10. Went out and Debora was out too, with Tadeu. Gininho came out and I called Renata and Alexandra. We decided to play beti but it took half an hour to find two sticks (betis). Debora went up to her flat and when the game started Piolho and Valerio arrived.
In the first match it was me and Renata vs Tadeu and Gino. The game was boring, no one was scoring. I took a big fall trying to run away from Gino, but he still hit me with the ball before I put my beti down in its house. (years later I realised beti must have had its origins in cricket, very similar, but uses tins instead of wickets and a tennis ball, or whatever ball is available.)
Andre Banzé from 205 turned up in our quarter (quadra – this is the delimited area we lived in, we lived in the 405S) after such a long time. We stopped playing half way through as it was a seriously dull game. There are lots of parties tonight, but I’m not going to any of them, as Renata’s mum isn’t going to the party and Alexandra’s mum isn’t going to let her go out either.
In the evening everyone was out (even Alexandra’s mum let her out) and we went out hunting for parties, went to 204, 408, 208, but nothing interesting was on. We went back to our quarter and as everyone was out I stayed out chatting with everyone.
