VOCABULARY:

Quanto tempo: Long time no see, It's been a long time

Pesadona: It's a expression/slang to say that something is really intense/heavy.

Nossa: (short for "Nossa Senhora" = Our Lady) is an exclamation expressing surprise or astonishment. This word in Portuguese is a general term meaning "Oh my gosh", "Wow"

Pode crer: It is a great and useful piece of gíria than means that’s believable. Literally it translates as one can believe, but in practice it has a looser, more informal sense. It is a way of indicating you are following someone’s thoughts and agreeing with their reasoning while in conversation.
