In Which AI skyrockets and Voyager is going too fast

Good morning, dear friend and reader of the current post! I am, of course, and as always, so happy and humbled to see you, and I hope to make it clear I never take it for granted. How are you, this last day of March? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. Today was alright overall, not anything on any side in particular, either good or bad. I made my college test for the March discipline, and my grade was nothing to write about, but also enough to pass me through! So it is what it is. I made myself some sweet potatoes for lunch, it was good and filling. But the trend concerning food is concerning. I have been struggling with my appetite again. At times I feel very hungry and almost like before the surgery, that is extremely concerning. I did manage to locate the approximate reason for this, and it is the protein intake deficit. I am in need of supplementation, but that is so expensive and in my household at the moment every penny counts, specially since we are barely reaching the end of th...

Sketch of the week! In which we talk about Alfred Linguni!

Hello to you! Good evening and Happy Wednesday to you! How are you today and how are things going? As usual, I wish you the best and hope you are fine! Today was a calm day, I went to college, class made sense and I always love when I understand stuff, though it was a bit tiring as well, the weather was extremely warm, reaching 94 in thermic sensation at lunchtime, this summer is being constant on extreme heat and on the brightness of the sun, sometimes it rains but it does little to make the weather more pleasant, but anyway, it was a calm day overall. Hope your day was calm as well! I have many stuff to do for college, another work in its way, but for now I just want to lay down here and write on my blog for you guys to read it later on! I wish I had more time for sketching, but one good thing of me not sketching as much is I'm back on reading my massive book! I read little today so far, but this week I read over 100 pages! For regular books, that is a considerable amount, but my book has over 1200 pages, so it will take me a loooong while for me to start finishing it, but I made progress! Any progress is cool right? I think so!
Well today is sketch of the week day and I have a new character to present you all! Say hello to Alfred Linguini! A friend helped pick the name! He is great


Coming in a moment of creative block that became an inventive one, Alfred has a facial expression I've been trying to do more successfully for quite a while now! I can say he was a good experiment and as a result he came to life. My choice of colors for his clothes was unorthodox as well, not what I usually go for, but in the end they end up quite nice I think, another good result! Not much change in style, I don't look for it, rather than a refinement of the one I've been using for quite a while now. Using soft pencils is something that changed my life for good! Opened so many oportunities coloring wise and added new vitality to my sketches, without them I think Alfred could not come to life. 
And who's Alfred? He has a vivid personality and is a natural entertainer! He loves to laugh and make jokes and, Linguini is not his actual last name, this is a nickname because he loves pasta, his actual last name is Dell. Alfred likes his computer as well, so Alfred Dell is a fitting name! He is quite clever as well, and has a rare sensitivity with people, being a nice friend for the funny moments and the quiet ones as well. He still lives with his parents but have plans of moving to his own place soon, and he hopes one day he will work with either books, computers or stand up comedy! His choice of clothes matches his personality!
He is a nice reminder that nice things can come out of times of not much creativity, if I decided not to draw anything, he would never be alive right now, I had no idea he was lurking in my imagination as well! I really need to draw something, tomorrow I'll have some extra free time, I can use it to try to take off any idea of my head maybe! Anyways, our mutual friend is what we have for today! Hope you liked to meet him and hang out here. Thank you so much, dear reader, I'm very grateful for you being here, you are the best! Stay safe, sleep well and see you next time, hopefully!
