In Which we have many years in a week: Morning in Brazil, too?

Good morning, most kind and dear friend, reader of this present post, too! How are you? This is a post I have been trying to write since this Tuesday or so... and it has been quite hard to think on what to develop into a more substancial thought. There is a lot that I would like to talk, and I was terrified of starting a post, only to delete it and leave it at that, it happened time and again, and it destroys me for the moment. I don't know why such a strong repulsion against starting a thought and not knowing how to end, not finding a good way to conclude. Perhaps it is fear of fatigue. Or of being mistreated. But I do have an ongoing trend that I perceive, I really, really wanted to mention it. I did start the year a bit annoyed with the 2016 nostalgia, and on that line, I said that it was more of a 1989 year than 2016. I said it due to the capture of Maduro, the (ongoing) second Iranian Revolution and war, the immense losses the left suffered across latin America, that brought s...

In Which we have Crowded mornings!

Good morning everyone! Happy FRIDAY and I wish you the best! How are you, I must ask, how are things? I hope it's going well, and I wish you the best, like I said! How is the weather? Around here, it's getting like a true sauna. In the northeastern coast of Brazil, it is always humid, but it's more milder in winter. In Summer, the heat is added to the humidity, causing a weather that breaks iron, melts plastic and burns the skin, important to always use your sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and UV shirts, specially if you're white, such as I, but even if your skin tone is darker, you shouldn't rely on it only to protect you against the scorching rays of radiation. I'd like to chat with you guys today about my mornings, but first, I'd love to tell you all, my friends, that my color pencils are here! All 100 of them, glorious and fresh! How awesome is it? Should boost my drawings a whole bunch, which is always an amazing thing for me! New color pencils are related to my morning struggles, more on that I talk bellow! Let's jump to it!

My mornings are a constant dance of finding time to do everything I want to do, because the mornings are more quiet and chill, and it's when I have more energy and creativity (probably due to the coffee). Maybe I want to play more juicy games that has no windowed mode (such as a Paradox game), maybe I want to work on drawings (and I just got new color pencils), maybe I want to work on some project on Illustrator, maybe I want to go the extra step when it goes to videogaming and hit the live button and stream, or maybe I want to write a piece on the blog, edit pictures and post them, the list goes on! If my mornings were the ground on the real estate industry, they'll be worth their square feet (or their square meter, whatever you wanna call it) in gold! The afternoons and the evenings just don't get the same energy for me, I have less energy, anxiety goes up because more friends are around and I want to chat with them, there are notifications to clean up and I get on the alert mode because I don't want to miss any important stuff, I usually already had class and I wanna rest, it's related to my mind and my routine, it drives me to the mornings! It was a tendency that consolidated in 2020, so very recent thing. I don't know how long it will last, we are changing routines and things are changing as time goes by, BUT for now, the mornings rule supreme in my creative realm, so important on a person that relies on that, and also on will to do things.

Well, those are the thoughts I wanted to share with you all! And I thank you for reading, it means a lot! This is one of the reasons my blog production is reduced, because I like to write on the mornings of my days off, and those mornings are so precious for me! Like I said, a lot to do in the mornings, not enough time available in them! This post is getting big so I should stop for now, but I hope to see you guys again real soon! Thank you ever so much, and like I said, see yall real soon!! Yay!
