In Which the Blog reach 950 posts! A lovely Holiday Season approaches!

Good morning, my dear friend, and I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, this fine hour? As for me, I am okay, just waking up, really. The weather here is one of quiet transition, to spring. I can still use thicker blankets, but the days are longer, and the sun is more bright. Not exactly a good thing, I don't like summer, that is approaching. The only saving grace is to have Christmas season also upon us, the season of 2026! And all the memories of happy summer vacations, with the christmas trees and the great deal of lovely santas around it. Grandma used to go all in for the decor. How I miss it... I pray I can emulate it, when I can. Today, grandma is 82 years old, she is aging, as it rarely can be helped. She is tired, and she lives in an apartment nowadays, as such, she does not do the Christmas stuff as vigorously as some years before, alas.  There is no such thing as forsaking the long holiday tradition just because "times changed", whatever that means. No. Jus...

In Which The Music Died

Hello everyone! Good morning! Happy Monday! Happy February! What did I miss? In case you didn't know I took a break from blogging, it was supposed to be just a day, then it turned into two days, then it turned to a week, and this week turned itself to be two weeks without blogging, how did I let this happen? Easy: routine is back, I returned on Pilates, on Therapy, on my graphic design classes, and so on, so I couldn't write when I was doing all of this, because when I got home I was tired and just wanted to stay in bed, I still do, but today luckily I woke up feeling like this day is a new day and I came here and here I am now, writing on my blog AT LIVE! Yes!! While I stream! How awesome is it, I ask myself, we shall see. First and foremost, I finally discovered a thing today which is pretty interesting, but also tragic, do you guys know this very famous song "American Pie" by Don Mclean? If you don't I'm gonna let it linked here on the blog, but it is this very long and beautiful song, with quite a poetic lyrics too, and it says at its climax about the day that music died. I found out what he means, in 1959, on this day, February 3rd, without getting into much details as I'm only finding out this now, but apparently, on a very tragic plane crash, Rock Singers Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and Jiles "The Big Bopper" Perry died, in Iowa, USA, to be more precise, and that is the day that music died, quite a tragedy that I'm only finding out about now! Even if I've been listening to this song since 2018, I mean, I stopped listening to it during my great depression of 2018, and spent my 2019 absent from it. But thanks to my friend BludHaven86 from Twitch and Discord, he is awesome by the way, I have rediscovered this song, and it helped that when I went to a pizza place on February 1st I listened to the song on the pizza place I was in, which was a happy coincidence, and here we are now! Wiriting about the day that music perished. I know, it is a very macabre way of returning to the blog, but well, here I am, back to stay I hope, I still have the schedule on my mind, but in the end I'll try to post every once in a week, but if I can I will try to keep the 4 posts per week thing, even if it's absolutely crazy to do so! Also I'm about to return to college as well, so let's see how things go.... more details into it if I actually return haha, or on the next post, if I have relevant news, as for today, I guess it's getting really big, so I'm calling for today, thank you so much for being here, dear reader, you are the best, and I wish you the best!
