21 QUESTIONS GAME
Thank you to @minnowf for tagging me in this! ♥ I started answering this morning but had to wait to get home to finish it properly. I always end up taking forever to answer these games.
RULES. Answer 21 questions and tag 21 people you want to know better.
Nickname: Mari.
Zodiac Sign: Sun in Pisces. I'm not super knowledgeable in Astrology, but I love it and love to know people's Sun, Moon and Rising signs.
Height: 166cm (5'5'').
Hogwarts House: Gryffindor.
Last Thing Googled: The opening hours of this coffee shop I'm at, inside the mall. Just making sure I could have some coffee and breakfast while I wait for the stores to open - kind of weird, haha, but I had to get a ride here, so I got here early.
Favourite Musicians: I’m more into genres than musicians as a whole. But I would go with, for example: Elvis Presley, Elton John, Lord Huron, Lana Del Rey, One Republic, My Chemical Romance... All over the place. I'm mainly into 60s/70s/80s/90s mainstream music and current indie music, with some mainstream pop to the mix. I know that’s a lot, but I'm still quite picky.
Song Stuck in Head: Talk by Khalid.
Following: 361.
Followers: 95.
Do I Get Asks: No. But I definitely would like too.
Amount of Sleep: I always aim for 7:30, but I'll probably accidentally sleep for like 9 hours if I'm home and only 6 if I'm working because I have a hard time actually going to bed.
Lucky Number: Hmm. I have several I feel drawn to, but I don't really have a lucky one.
Wearing: Cropped black tee, black jeggings, black tennis shoes. Light pink knit kimono. Black choker, lilac shell necklace, white watch and rings. I also wear my prescription glasses all the time.
Dream Job: (Published) Author.
Dream Trip: London. Glasgow. Dublin. Seoul. Tokyo. California. Hawaii. Rome. Oh, wait. Everywhere. But going to London has to be my oldest dream trip. I know it’s pretty common for Portuguese people to go there and all, but I never had the money to travel abroad - I've only been places during business trips. I'm hoping next year it will be different.
Instruments: I don’t know how to play anything. I would like to at least know the basics for the acoustic guitar, but I don’t actually have patience to learn it, to be honest.
Languages: Portuguese (native), English (fluent) and bits of other languages, like Spanish and Italian. I took a Mandarin semester a few years back, but I can't remember most of it. I would like to learn proper Spanish, Italian, Russian, Korean and Japanese. Maybe one day I decide on one to actually focus on - for once.
Favourite Songs: That's too complicated to pick. But a few of them are: Lucky Charm (Elvis Presley), Can't Help Falling in Love (Elvis Presley), Your Song (Elthon John), Rocket Man (Elton John), Lola (The Kinks), Down by the River (Lord Huron), Video Games (Lana del Rey), Africa (Toto), Escape - The Piña Colada Song (Rupert Holmes), There She Goes (The La’s), I Was Made for Lovin’ You (KISS), Should I Stay or Should I Go (The Clash), Your Love (The Outfield) and Is This Love (Bob Marley & The Wailers).
Random Fact: I love dogs. If I see a dog on the street, everybody around me will know. I was always raised with dogs. We have a sort of a Jack Russell and Chihuahua mix.
Aesthetic: Dense white fog, the sound of rain, daydreaming during mundane tasks, all black outfits, cosy blankets, the smell of books, astronomy, astrology, conspiracy theories, zombie films replaying, cappuccinos.
TAGGING. Sorry if you've already done this. And, as always, feel free to ignore this if you don’t want to do it. @hyba, @fictionshewrote, @sidhewrites, @thepanickingwriter, @cosmaires, @crispgorgeousblack, @sleepy-and-anxious, @clawhee-writes, @rose-of-sharon-cass, @ownworldresident, @gabbysmadness, @aesopsrachaels, @erinoddly, @stetcomma, @clarissalopeswriter, @txintedsxint, @elusiveink, @thedreamsofthesky, @onedayillwriteabook, @eternalvertigos, @wordsofpaintandsmoke.

Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s interview with La Vanguardia
Interview by JOAN JOSEP PALLÀS,  translated by me
Tumblr media
They've always said that to be a goalkeeper, you’d have to be crazy.
Very strong beginning to the first question.. We are just like any other player, we’re only different from the rest because we jump after the ball wherever it may go. What we do is special but not crazy.
But the goalkeeper is all alone. The pression is felt differently.
Yes. But it was worse before. Back then, goalkeepers were more distant from the rest of the team, but the way of playing has changed nowadays, we are closer to our teammates, we know that we can help the defenders. It’s true that we train alone and that we prepare the matches individually, but at the same time we feel more part of the game and united in the same profession. 
Do you have a certain technique to better manage the stress? Meditating for example.
I know many players who do it, but I function well when I am at peace with myself. I know when I mess up and when I have played a good match and I don’t worry about what’s coming. There are plenty if opinions around me but I only care about the ones close to me, the goalkeeping coach for example. Then there’s my fiance. She understands little about football, but from a different point of view, she can tell how I feel. There are hardly ever moments where I am not feeling well, but when they do occur, she can tell how I feel. It’s another means of meditation.
Explain this to me.
If you have someone who treats you well, you reach something special. The same thing happens with Dela (De la Fuente, the goalkeeping coach), he’s very important for me, or with the boss. They explain the things to you in detail. All these opinions are the ones who I feel closest to me and who are the most important ones. They are enough for me.
Your self-confidence has always been surprising, despite your young age. At the beginning it was confused with arrogance. 
It’s essential to look ahead. There isn't another way to work. Dwelling on past failures is a mistake, you can’t change them.
Do you remember the first day you put on the gloves?
Buf.. It’s been a long time. I was nine. I liked the feeling because I was able to was the matches from another perspective, keeping track of the players’ movements going from one place to another.. It was fun because I was able to correct and help my teammates. In reality I liked being an outfield player better, but that’s football.
Why did you agree then?
Our usual goalkeeper got injured. I thought to myself “ yes, I’ll do it, it’s only one match. But I changed positions for good.
That’s where your ability to play well with your feet comes from.. 
I’ve always liked football, I didn’t care how or where I am playing, I’ve always had a ball with me. It’s my job now, and it’s seen differently. But there is always something new, it’s what I like most about this sport.
Do you ever regret being a goalkeeper?
Sometimes the coach would tell you things you don’t want to here and you go through some difficult moments, but you get through these moments with the help of a good family and people close to you. My mother was always important in that sense.
What’s more important for a goalkeeper, hands or feet ?
My job is to stop shots. The hands are much more important than the feet.
I say that because Zubizarreta discarded Courtois because his style of play did not fit Barça’s, but yours did.
During matches, you can help the team by going out to play the ball, inside or outside. It’s a way to generate a superiority, something important depending on which situations. Being confident is basic to be able to do that.
Do you speak to Zubizarreta regularly?
Once in a while. We have less contact now. But I will always be grateful to him for the way he explained what was in store for me here.
Zubizarreta was the goalkeeper of the first Champions League that Barça won in Wembley. 20 days before that, you were born. Are you interested in knowing about his history at the Club?
Yes, of course. When you play at a Club like this, you can’t limit yourself to only playing. It’ not only about that. You need to be familiar with its circumstances, with its past. I know that Barça went through difficult times, that it wasn't as successful as it is now, but it’s need to be said that politically, everything has changed a lot. Everything ends up happening when it’s done sensibly.
Tumblr media
Let’s talk about the ‘Remontada’ against PSG. Your play, recovering the ball in the opposition’s half and provoking a foul will be remembered forever. Explain it. 
It cannot be explained. It was something so unique.. At the end of the day, you play and dedicate yourself to football to be able to live things like that. It was very special. In that moment I didn’t think that things were going to go our way. Sometimes, trying is the most important.
But what were you doing there?
I don’t know (laughs)...Being up there does not fit my position
Did you ask to go up or did the coach tell you to?
The boss gestured at me like he was trying to tell me ‘go on now’ and Unzue was saying ‘no, no, no, no, stay, stay’ and I tried to not look at him.Later on Luis (Suárez) asked me ‘what are you doing here?’. I told myself ‘come on, there is only one minute left’, ‘you have to take advantage of these moments, they rarely happen’.
What really makes that play different is that you did not commit a foul, but you recovered the ball to continue the play.
I know. The aim was to create a kind of superiority with an extra player, marking a rival payer. I had no intention in making a goal, just keeping things moving.
Have you ever seen the Camp Nou, or any other stadium in you career like that?
No. I hadn't lived anything like that until then.
What’s it like being a goalkeeper and facing Messi, Neymar and Suárez?
One prepares himself for everything but to stop those three you have to have a bit of luck because when they come up to you, it’s difficult. That’s why they are at Barça. What I can say is that I am happy I don’t have to play against them and I am even more happy that I get to play with them.
There have been talks that the referee helped you with the ‘Remontada...
Scoring six goals was not because of the referee. In that same match, there were many decisions for and against us. But football allows everything to be said, including things that aren't true. We started that match with a 1-0 in the 3rd minute. You don’t win those matches with the referee’s help, you win them with heart and with the path used to try to win. We achieved it because we wanted it and we fully believed it could be done in every moment, including after the 3-1, when everything seemed lost. 
How do you live the rivalry with Real Madrid?
From the beginning, as soon as I arrived, I noticed that it’s something different. It has to do with football but also with Politics. I prefer to focus only on football. We are eleven and we are not interested in the other part. We want to win. 
Have you spoken with Claudio Bravo since he left?
I have followed his course but I haven’t spoken to him. He is in a complicated situation but I am sure he will regain his spot, he is very good and he will do it. 
How football works. City wanted you...
I live in the moment. It’s the most important. I am happy here, with the teammates and with the friends, so I hope I win many more titles here, that’s the goal.
You’ve said once that you did not like to be defined as the goalkeeper of the future, but the goalkeeper of the present. Have you achieved it? Do you see yourself being here for many years?
I don’t know. I try to do what is best for me and for the team. Give the best of myself and improve. You never know what comes later on.
Will you miss Luis Enrique?
I think we are not there yet. He has won a lot of titles with us and he’s always done what’s best for the Club. I can imagine how difficult the decision he made was. We are very thankful for what he has done for us but there is plenty of Liga left, the Champions League and the Copa del Rey final.. It’s better not to talk about this and focus in the competition.
Your next coach could be a former goalkeeper. What do you think?
I don’t know. Each coach has his point of view. I don’t know who’ll be the next coach but I am not worried about that now. There is plenty left and we have to focus on the present. There are many matches in April.
If you win the Champions League, Arda Turan will lose his beard and you will shave your hair. You made the dare on twitter
If we win it, that’s what will happen, yes.
Who’s going to shave whom?
I don’t know. We haven’t talked about it, but I would like to do it. I will do it on the first day of the new season.
And what if Arda is not there?
He will be, he will be… (laughs).

Kid Ink, Hymn For the Weekend by Coldplay, Wherever I Go by One Republic, Into You by Arianna Grande, Can’t Feel My Face by the Weeknd etc. The Player film Review starring Tim Robbins, Greta Scachi, Fred Ward listed on Amazon to be directed by Robert Altman
Another film Where I Am Far from the Target Audience Yet            I admit that I have to credit an online article titled 10 Must See Movies For Screenwriters by Dave Trottier for giving me an idea to watch this The Player film (after I entered a google search of movies about screenwriters). The film has a multitude of celebrities in it; Whoopi Goldberg,  Gina Gershon,Anjelica Houston, Julia Roberts, Lyle Lovett, Cher, Fred Ward, Peter Gallagher,Dina Merrill, Andie Macdowell, Jeff Goldblum Bruce Willis, Jeremy Priven, Nick Nolte, Gary Busey, Teri Garr,Lily Tomlin, Burt Reynolds, Susan Sarandon, John Cusack, Richard Grant, Robert Dean Stockwell,and many more celebrity appearances. However, significant plot points of the film center around the character of Griffin Mill (Tim Robbins), a hotshot Hollywood Executive whose world is unintentionally turned upside down after he loses his temper with writer/author David Kahane (Vincent D’Onofrio). Griffin Mill is shown being pretty distant with a multiple number of even his professional colleagues. Even his girlfriend from work Bonnie Sherow (Cynthia Stevenson) is not treated much differently from Griffin’s coworkers. However, part of Griffin Mill’s humanity is exposed when he is seen communicating with June Gudmundsdottir (Greta Scachi). That sounds innocent enough until the viewer realizes that she was romantically connected to writer/author David Kahane. 100 Greatest '90s Alternative Songs Price: $0.00 A Worthwhile Collection To Listen To if You Like 90’s Rock Music, April 20, 2017 This review is from: 100 Greatest '90s Alternative Songs (MP3 Music)I unintentionally came across this music collection from Amazon’s playlist of 100 Greatest '90s Alternative Songs and I am very glad to have done so. The following is a sampler of some of the hits available in this playlist; the well-known Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana, Losing My Religion by R.E.M.,Closer by Nine Inch Nails, Wonderwall by Oasis,Song 2 by Blur, Buddy Holly by Weezer, Give It Away by Red Hot Chili Peppers, Everlong by Foo Fighters, Karma Police by Radiohead,Possum Kingdom by the Toadies, I Alone by Live,Popular by Nada Surf etc. Comment | Permalink Body Like A Back Road Price: $1.29 Well-Crafted Contemporary Country Tune, April 20, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Body Like A Back Road (MP3 Music)This song Body Like A Back Road by Sam Hunt is a exceptional type of song that appears to be an ode to a curvy woman yet mentioned in a tasteful and polite way. I can easily enjoy this type of song year round. However, for some reason, this song gives me a summer type of vibe when I hear it. Comment | Permalink Flying with the Rich and Famous: True Stories from the Flight Attendant who flew with them Price: $4.99 Author’s Recollections of Flying High (Metaphorically Speaking), April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Flying with the Rich and Famous: True Stories from the Flight Attendant who flew with them (Kindle Edition)This kindlebook of Flying with the Rich and Famous: True Stories from the Flight Attendant who flew with them by Patricia Reid is written by a woman who has multiple positive memories of her job. She is also candid about how competitive it is to get into the line of work. Reid shares the special shopping trips that were required with the type of flight attendant job she features in this kindlebook. Additionally,Reid discusses and her feelings on a multitude of various celebrities that she met and more. Some of the celebrities that Reid admits to have spotted during her time of employment as a flight attendant; Rod Stewart, Sylvester Stallone,Dom Deluise, Elizabeth Taylor, Jack Nicholson,Tom Cruise, the late former President Ronald Reagan,etc. Comment | Permalink Writing with the Muse: A Guidebook to Conscious Creativity (Intuition University) Price: $7.99 Outside The Box Writing Guidance, April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Writing with the Muse: A Guidebook to Conscious Creativity (Intuition University) (Kindle Edition)
This kindlebook of Writing with the Muse: A Guidebook to Conscious Creativity (Intuition University) by Sara Wiseman accidently came to me by lucky chance. I had seen the kindlebook for Demons of Confusion: Rituals To Hide the Truth, Create Confusion, and Conceal Your Actions by Corwin Hargrove. Even with my intuitive and logical awareness that it helps to integrate both knowledge from spiritual white light and darkness to strengthen my spiritual core, I did not yet feel ready to purchase that book. However, as my soul/spirit craves truth from non-biased  and non-judgmental sources, I fortunately came across this kindlebook of Writing With the Muse by Sara Wiseman as a way to help me gain clarity on my creativity as it pertains to my writing goals. Some of the one of a kind tidbits in this kindlebook; the three trances that she writes are the flow states for creative writing,ideally working by hand to keep a journal in relation to ideas for whatever medium of artistic creation that a person is undertaking as she also addresses artists and musicians, asking yourself if you are willing to press forward in your writing passion regardless of publishing outcome (an easy question for me to answer as I do feel called to writing regardless of the outcome even though I understand it may sound arrogant to others, yet I understand that others may only want to write with regards to a guarantee of profitable andor lucrative outcomes). I admit that I liked that Wiseman encouraged a person to give themselves permission to press on with a project deadline date in relation to one of the ideas in her container suggestion. This encouraging guidance was important for me to come across as I work to improve my writing for creative writing therapy as well while also simultaneously working on my employment goals. Wiseman also gives ideas for having containers open for smaller projects such as articles from magazines, doing art for fun, lyrics from songs etc.
Comment | Permalink Long Story Short: The Only Storytelling Guide You'll Ever Need Offered by Penguin Random House Publisher Services Price: $9.99 Candid and Helpful, April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Long Story Short: The Only Storytelling Guide You'll Ever Need (Kindle Edition)This kindlebook of Long Story Short: The Only Storytelling Guide You'll Ever Need by Margot Leitman captures some of the author’s experiences as it relates to her ideas for storytelling. Leitman also bluntly admits that some people wishing to spice up their writing may want to live a life in a way that is a little riskier without venturing too much in the danger zone. I admit that this advice was a splash of cold water to my face (metaphorically speaking) because I am blessed with an abundance of free time and a loving husband who is supportive of my writing goals. However, I am in the process of learning and implementing in taking risks in various areas of my life in a harm-free manner. Reitman also bluntly shares that some of the best writing comes from writers who have successfully found a way to put imperfections in their writings with just the right amount of happy scenarios/endings. Reitman politely gives examples of working with very religious people who wanted to create stories with very few imperfections in them. She tactfully explains that this in on the similar extreme of gifted writers who may want to only focus on the dark sides/challenging outcomes with benefiting from more positive outcome additions to their stories and more tidbits. I admit that I am still in the process of working on that angle due to my intuitive and logical awareness that the outcome to a person’s imperfections/flaws is sometimes indirectly influenced by how much outside the mainstream a writer/author is. In other words, even I know that two authors can expose similar imperfections in their writings, but the harsh truth is that I have picked up on and seen is that sometimes the person who is most celebrated for being true to themselves fits into the mainstream ideal in some way when it comes to their attractiveness, personality,intelligence, the family background that they came from etc. In contrast, I have seen examples of people who exposed their flaws in a harm-free manner and were not met with the same support from others in their circle (family, friends)and/orevenmisunderstood/demonized. Comment | Permalink Aftersight Price: $4.99 A Moving and Spiritual Story, April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Aftersight (Kindle Edition)I admit that it is too personal for me to share how I came across this Aftersight kindlebook by Brian Mercer. The Aftersight story shares how one young woman’s life was dramatically changed after a life changing car accident. Her sensitivity to the spiritual/afterlife realms are heightened yet her relationship with her parents is not the same after the incident. Her parents still love her, yet for example her dad admits to her that he would like his old daughter back that existed prior to the car accident. Comment | Permalink The Intern DVD Price: $9.99 I’m Far From the Target Audience For This Film Yet, April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: The Intern (Amazon Video)I admit that I remember being intrigued to eventually watch the Intern film after seeing an article online related to some public relations managers being inspired by the Intern film to hire some older women in real-life as interns (women in their 40’s, 50’s etc.). I admit that this film metaphorically jumped out at me to eventually purchase and watch, which was well worth is for some of the multiple reasons; Anne Hathaway as the character Jules Ostin is shown in an empowering light doing her best to juggle her career and personal life with her husband Matt (Anders Holm) and daughter Paige (Jo Jo Kushner). Ostin is in charge of a successful/thriving business that adds on more people such as Ben Whitaker (Robert Deniro), Davis ( Zack Pearlman), Doris (Celia Weston) etc. Ben becomes popular at the workplace and is seen interacting a lot with Jules Ostin, Jason (Adam Devine), Becky (Christina Scherer) etc. Ben meets and is instantly smitten with the in house massage therapist Fiona (Rene Russo). One of Ben’s lady friends Patty (Linda Lavin) figures this out and expresses her reaction when Ben is shown taking Fiona to a funeral for the first date. Some of the multiple pop culture references in the film which I admit I noticed in the film due to my interest in advertising/marketing trends; JayZ and Beyonce referenced in the film, Stella Artois beer, Sammy Davis, Billy Holiday, Clancy, Harry Potter, Ocean’s film series starring Brad Pitt as Rusty Yates, George Clooney, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts, snippets of a song featured in the film by KC and the Sunshine Band, snippets of a song being played by Busta Rhymes, Teddy’s Bar & Grill, a brief clip of the Singing in the Rain film etc. Comment | Permalink Buying the View Season 1 Price: $16.99 Fun To Watch, April 21, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Buying the View Season 1 (Amazon Video)I admit that this series of Buying The View Season 1 caught my attention because it seemed similar to another show that I find to be fun to watch from the episodes that I have watched (Lottery Dream Home). The first episode opens with a couple being shown different properties in Miami Florida. The second features a couple being shown different properties around Whistler BC (which appears to be in a similar location featured in Timber Creek Lodge Season 1).

I admit that these songs are some tunes that I enjoy a lot from this collection; Genie In A Bottle by Christina Aguilera, The Boy is Mine by Monica & Brandy, Whatta Man by Salt N Pepa feat. Vogue, Step by Step by New Kids On The Block. However, there are multiple songs from different timeframes of the 90’s and music genres that will appeal to many people who listen to various types of music. Comment | Permalink Lust For Life [feat. The Weeknd] Price: $1.29 A One of A Kind Avant-Garde Love Song, April 20, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Lust For Life [feat. The Weeknd] (MP3 Music)I admit that I was first exposed to this unique Lust For Life song by Lana Del Rey feat. the Weeknd less than 18 hours ago (via youtube). The music collaboration is very well coordinated (when it comes to the lyrics of Lana Del Rey and the Weeknd) and the futuristic lounge/electronic music makes it a very novel type of love song. I also like that the Lust For Life song has both a hopeful and happy-go-lucky vibe. Comment | Permalink That's What I Like Price: $1.29 An Exquisite Dance/R&B type of song, April 20, 2017 Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: That's What I Like (MP3 Music)I admit that this entertaining song That’s What I Like by Bruno Mars grew on me after multiple times of listening to it. It is a come hither/romantic type of song yet one of the positive features of the song is that it comes out in a imaginative love story type of tune. That’s What I Like by Bruno Mars is also perfect to listen to if you have liked andor enjoyed his Treasure song-it reminds me in an outstanding way of that song.
