by Tartaruga

April 11, 2005

  • 1. You’re roda-addict. The week’s not complete if it didn’t include a roda.
  • 2. You’ve done an au in your office/school/at home.
  • 3. When you’re bored or stuck in traffic, you start playing the atabaque rhythms on any available surface.
  • 4. You’ve done the air berimbau and stopped doing it when you realized how obscene it looked.
  • 5. You know who Topogigio, Faustao and Nhonho are, and you’ve actually googled for their pics.
  • 6. You check the Bantus website once a day.
  • 7. You’ve mei-luaed public property. E.g. Fire hydrant, rubbish bin, traffic cones etc.
  • 8. You clap and sing along whenever you hear music.
  • 9. You are ‘protect-your-face’ all the time.
  • 10. You sing in portuguese when you shower even if you don’t understand what the heck you’re singing.
