In Which I think of the book project and brainstorm briefly on it!

Hello, my friend, reader of this present post! I am happy to see you once again. It is great to be here. How are you? Hopefully the week went fine? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. The birthday week, so to speak, was relatively uneventful, except for some bursts of anxiety at the evening of day 12, precisely at the day of celebration. Family time can be a challenge...  I often think if my book idea would go anywhere... I wanted to write my thoughts on urban planning and architecture, and yet I imagine any path I take, will likely be faced wirh cruel scrutiny, and the only variable will be what will the lane they will pick, if any. Firstly, I did read the great book by Mrs. Jacobs on the death and life of great American cities, and wanted to emulate it. I thought on a research, then I thought it would be better to write from my life experience instead.. perhaps I should do a life experience writing, with researches if proven necessary?

In which we talk about the Moonlight Scene!

Hello dear reader, and good morning! Happy Sunday and I do wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? Wow, let me tell you, I'm a bit groggy, because I took a sleeping pill at 1AM and that thing was strong! So strong, I finally managed to wake up at a reasonable time, 8AM, instead of the 5AM time I usually wake up. Why did I took the medicine? Because I had a huge Burger King dinner yesterday, two cheeseburgers, delicious, two french frie portions, delicious, and two cans of soda, also delicious. All of this made my stomach so full, at the end of the day I couldn't sleep, so here we are at the starting point of this post all over again! I don't regret nothing, believe me.

So, I've been hit hard with the writer's block disease this week, which sucks a lot, and not a whole lot happened that I could mention worthy of an entire post, alas for me. But well, as I went on an adventure (more like a misadventure) yesterday, I managed to do something on Illustrator, the program I began learning last week, and I'd love to share the result with you guys, and a small story on the subject!

There is this tutorial on Adobe Illustrator that I tried on doing (this one right Here) and wow, I thought it was gonna be pretty straightforward and stuff, it turns out it's super complicated! Just my tries on doing the clouds, more than once they went terribly wrong! I had to do the work all over again two, three times, until I got a somewhat acceptable result somehow. But, according to the guy, I should've gone further and have done the animal also, to which I said "hell no". So, this is my final result:


A lonely but powerful moonlight scene, obsfuscating the stars even! This is what I have to offer for today, it's not much but I'm glad with the final result, something that I could use as my lockscreen even! Actually, feel free to do so, if so you desire! Today's post is ending right here, but I hope to come back real soon with more words and interaction! Have a wonderful Sunday! And happy new week!
