In Which July Ends in a bad way, August Begins on road to Recovery

Good morning, friend, dear reader of this post. How are you? I hope you are in good health, you are well, and I want to say to you: Happy August! The month has started under the shadow of a turbulent July, and a turbulent June, and a turbulent May. Not all of those months were bad or to be discarded as a lost trimester, but fact is, for one reason or the other, and in spite of the lovely weather of winter time, it has been a challenging set of moments. College stress, anxiety spikes caused by a number of reasons, such as loneliness and the fear of losing friendships for some question or another. Late July was a bit of a peak of this crisis. And July 31st was my aunt's birthday. I want to see her smile, so I went to her birthday celebration at the restaurant. It was of course nice to see her, and to see my uncle and my aunt married to him, she is such a wonderful lady, and I always assumed her in the family without questioning. My cousins are nice too.

Song of the week! In which we pay homage to disco music and Donna Summer!

Hello everyone and happy Friday!! So happy to be here today writing this post for you and for me! How are you? As usual, I wish you the best! The days are still hot and with a very bright sun, it's like the summer is here earlier in 2018, what's going on??? As you know, as much as I love blue skies, I prefer the rain, ANYWAY, but the weather fits well the song I'm bringing today!! We're going to go back in time "just" a little bit for the disco days of the disco queen herself, DONNA SUMMER! And DON'T YOU FEEL THE LOVE IN THE AIR?



This was the first song I heard of her, it came out of nowhere on Spotify last year, and I love it so much! It's so hypnotizing and exuberant! But for some time it was the only song of her I knew, until her name popped into my head for some reason this month, and now I've been listening to her so much, and her songs are truly something else! I still don't know much about this fantastic artist, but I definitely have to keep searching for her and keep discovering her wonderful songs, just like this one! It has almost ten minutes and it holds you for this whole almost ten! And you even ask for more when it's over! I'm such a musical grandpa, I think I tend to love disco music in general, it's truly a rhythm in ebullition!! And if you don't have Spotify, do not worry! I have the link for Youtube as well:


I really encourage you to listen to it, I think it's worth it! Donna Summer is what we have for today, this nice Friday! Thank you so much for being here, I appreciate you a lot! See you next time!
