In Which I have some nice online friends

Good morning, my friend, reader of this post! As an opening remark, ah, I should tell, At some days, it is hard to keep my eyes open as I write. Profoundly tiresome, I say, and hardly fails to happen. But anyway, I am happy to be here. The past few days I have been tired and hopefully resting, while also doing my own gaming-mod stuff at the computer. I ought to catch up with college stuff, but fortunately I am not behind. There is the issue with the internship, but that has been a grey area. I cannot tell for sure where I will be concerning the topic, not now. I can only wait to hear back from the schools I applied this Monday, if at all. Apart from such problem, though, happy to say I am quite caught up! One step at a time, I hope this course is the one I graduate!  How happy I am to see you. It has been hard to do creative rhings the past week or so. I open the blog page, and I disperse quite fast. Nothing comes to mind in concerning writing. And, at times, when I do have an idea...

In which we have an extra post to have some erudite music!

And again happy Friday guys!!! A great afternoon to you all!!
And here I am again! So fast, right?? Hope I'm not being overwhelming, but I just wanted to have a separate post to share one of my favorite erudite compositions with you guys, continuing the music Friday! It's just a quick post, but oh dear this piece by Gabriel FaurĂ© (1845-1924), present on the soundtack of Sid Meier's Civilization V, is one of my favorite pieces ever! Civ V is wonderful and Gabriel FaurĂ© is wonderful too, also I heard it's been 8 years since this game, that is my favorite, was released, so it just makes sense!!!! I'm gonna share first the version of the game composition, because this interpretation is my favorite, but I could only find it so far on youtube:
And here it's the version for Spotify, which is not orchestral, but still wonderful:

Here's a painting of Gabriel talking about it, he has some pretty iconic facial hair, as we can see!

This piece has a huge and strong impact in my life, and I can't tell how much I love it, since the first time I heard it in 2011, while playing Civ. I never forgot of it and I never will forget, it will forever be a part of my life. My life is better because of Gabriel and this amazing composition, I just had to share this with you guys. It was a bad week, but as long as I can still listen to this, I will holding the conviction that my future is better and my mind will be calm and I'll be happy 100%. Hope you guys are fine, and see you guys next time! Which is probably tomorrow, cause tomorrow is post day, but anyway, see you guys next time!
And don't worry by how short this post is, I'll have more erudite pieces in the future here!!
