Well, after a long, hot summer here in Lisbon, Isabela and I have started back at college for the final year of our photography degree - blurgh! We both thought that the course would be an easy 3 years - alas, our tutors really pile on the work! Our biggest worry, though, has been finding the rent for our apartment. We both have jobs to supplement our meagre student grants yet never seem to have enough money to live on. At a party last night one of our friends suggested that we start a porno web site and become rich beyond our wildest dreams. Hah, I should think so!

She is on the internet too much... a porno web site, why not? asked Isabela. I told her I think it's a tacky idea.

Another bad day (some people treat waitresses like slaves), more bills have arrived and the rain this week has given me a stinking cold. I think pornography exploits and degrades women, so I told Isabela that if we do a porno web site it has to be from a woman's point of view. But what sort of porn? Isabela suggested lesbian stuff (she's always swung both ways). I wasn't too keen on this idea and feel that the dykes are best left in Holland. We drank coffee and had a brainstorming session. We decided that we should do sexy stuff that we both enjoy. The answer was obvious: pantyhose. Isabela and I both get turned on by wearing nylon. So, our web site would be all about pantyhose.

I'm now quite excited by the idea!

We have spent all day designing the look of our web site. Isabela is the tech head, while I do most of the creative stuff. Techy tells me that the preview part of the site won't be online for another week yet (apparently we have to get a name and web stuff for it). When it's online I'll post the link here...

(ps. 'meia-calca' - pronounced mayersh kahlser - is Portuguese for 'pantyhose')

More brainstorming! We now have to find the content for our web site, and we didn't realise just how much content we would need in order to get people to pay their hard earned cash to view it.

Isabela is a bitch! We both agreed that we would create www.meia-calca.com for women as well as men, yet Izzy is now saying that we have to be practical and aim our content entirely at men, since they are the biggest users of online porn. Humpf! a large number of women get their rocks off via the internet (Izzy herself being a case in point) and the whole idea of our web site is sensuality rather than graphic sexuality, and sensuality is a woman's thing.

Our arguement came to a head when I said that we must have plenty of stiffys in the hardcore amateur section, and a section of the site dedicated to men in pantyhose. Isabela said that men in pantyhose look gross. I disagree - although I do wish they would shave their legs! I find men in pantyhose incredibly sexy and have been photographing them for a number of years now (it's my little secret). Isabela said that she would only agree to a men in pantyhose section if she could also have a lesbian section. In the end

Today was my first photo shoot for the web site. Izzy took the pictures, so it wasn't as nerve wracking as it could have been (I much prefer being behind the camera) and I certainly have better legs than Rodrigues. After a while I loosened up and even began to enjoy the shoot. Having Izzy photograph me in this way made me incredibly aroused. It reminded me of when we were kids, 13 or 14-years old, and I used to stay over at Izzy's house. I would sleep in her bed and sometimes we would kiss and touch each other intimately. It's my only experience of doing it with another girl and because it was so naughty I used to wear a pantyhose as a kind of chastity belt (it didn't keep Izzy out for very long!). Tomorrow I get revenge, when Izzy will have to pose in front of my camera!

Unlike me, Isabela loves being photographed. She comes from a very traditional rural family and I think that's why she's so outrageous; whereas I have a French father and Portuguese mother and was born and raised in Lisbon. Avoir la trique: these photo sessions are having a strange effect on me!

And the bills remain unpaid, so we paid a visit to Mr Marques, our bank manager. Izzy wore red pantyhose, I wore sheer black pantyhose. Mr Marques' glasses steamed-up and surprise, surprise we managed to get a loan to cover our short term expenses. Izzy insists on having a ballet section on the web site, which, surprise, surprise, contains a lot of lesbian content. Izzy and I first met at ballet lessons, and despite my now awkward, gangling teenage self I would still love to be a ballet dancer; whereas Izzy would still love to do a ballet dancer!

College continues to be a drag. Izzy and I are bunking off on Friday to do more shoots. It's not really truancy, more a day out of the classroom for work experience.

Although our time in the classroom is a bore, we do try to use it to our advantage and are rapidly building up our schoolgirl galleries. Today I took some pics of Carla, who was pretending to understand algebra.

Legend has it that Carla once let the college football team have her, in the boiler room and in a similar position to the one shown on the left. When it comes to abstract calculus I'm not quite sure that all 11 went into 1, yet it seems that Carla came pretty close.

Ana the movie star! Not quite, just some short clips for the preview section, and me prancing around like an idiot in front of the camera. Isabela, of course, was a natural; which begged the question: how much are we going to charge for membership of our site? Some sites charge as much as 40 Euros a month. I think that's way too much and suggested 15 Euros to begin with, since we're still building-up our content. Isabela said that our content is very specialised and some of it quite unique, so we'll charge a 25 Euro monthly membership fee. Hah, who am I to argue?

As well as movies we've also been doing some fashion shoots for the web site; yes, we have three different sections for fashion: high fashion, colour tights and red tights. This is Isabela's idea, and I told her, yes, but red tights are colour tights, so why have different sections for them?! Izzy loves red tights, though, and insists on having a separate section for them. Then she became a tease when she asked me if I wanted her to rub my body with her red pantyhosed feet. My feet are too big, yet Izzy's feet are really sexy and I almost said yes!

God, what a day! As if this Toto business hasn't been enough, Rodrigues turned up at the apartment late this evening. He was drunk and kept calling me a slut because of the web site stuff, while in the next breath he was blathering on about how much he loves me. I had to deal with him on my own because Bruna was having Izzy for dinner this evening. Rodrigues was eventually dispatched into the night with the promise that I'll "have coffee with him sometime". The fool. On top of this I have a mountain of work that needs to be done for college tomorrow morning. All these distractions means that I'll have to be up half the night to finish it.
