In Which we talk about Apathy: how an Empire fell by a thousand papercuts

Good afternoon, dear friend! This post is going to be a big one in size, I had a lot in mind to assemble! Hope you are well, and hope the weather is lovely! I am happy it is another day on the christmas season, yet I also worry that this post is quite big! Anyway, I in advance beg your forgiveness for not writing some words properly, my eyes are bothering me... I hope my point may come across anyway... let us jump to it... There has been a number of bad events over the past weeks. In Brazil, we are closer to the meme "I can't complain about things (or else I may be in judicial jeopardy)" than not. The election here was a disaster, and not because some group voted one way or the other, that is the wrong way of looking at it. Truth is, it was one election with a predetermined result. The evidence over fraud or at least something very eerie happening to the process is enough to, unfortunately, I must tell, because some certainly deserve the shaming, absolve people from any b...

In Which we pay Homage to the Christmas Fairy

Hello everyone, good morning, and I wish you the best. I feel sad for starting the month of April in such way, it is my fault, I should've written the post earlier, but anyway, something sad happened, the Mrs., friend of my grandma mother of my dad (and also my grandpa father of my mom), that used to make some cakes and used to help grandma decorate her house for Christmas, unfortunately passed away, I don't know the cause, but the fact is that she is not around anymore... Again, I didn't cry, but I can't find the words to describe how unmotivated I am to find out of those bad news. A person that came in the best time of the year and used to transform the house of grandma, unfortunately is gone. So I found only appropriate to call her The Christmas Fairy on the post, it's a nice way of paying homage. Anyway, there is little we can do, just keep the tradition of decorating our houses in that wonderful time of year going forward. And for Easter, Grandma decided to bring lambs to the house instead of bunnies, as she found that animal would represent Christ better.


I understand, even if I miss the colorful stuffed bunnies that would be around. Having the lamb is more appropriate though, I will have to agree with grandma, even if I'll go ahead and have bunnies anyway, I'm not the most religious person around. I offer my prayers and I do believe in God, but it still is something foreign to me. Anyway, overall I'm okay, and glad it is April, I'm glad the new apartment, the one that I'll live on in a bit, is coming together. Easter was fine, I felt a bit odd on my stomach, but nothing that would bring my day down. I didn't have Easter Eggs, unfortunately, but I had some chocolate still, and I love Chocolate! Anyway, I just wanted to say hi to you guys, pay homage to the mrs. that brought so much joy to my life, and next post, that will come soon, hopefully this Wednesday (let's pray for it), I'll talk about April with more detail, just properly say hello to this nice month of hot and wet days, hopefully we can have some cooler ones as well, I can dream, can't I? Well, I appreciate you for reading this, and I wish you the best, as I said in the beginning, see you real soon.
