In Which Joseph and his Technicolor Dreamcoat bring some Christmas Delight

Good morning, my dear friend! Happy Tuesday, how are you, today? As for me, I am okay, the days have been heating up faster, and I already am struggling with the heat again... but not all is bad, it is still the Christmas season! I have been expecting such wonderful time since Midmas (my June invention, like some do Summerween), and now, with the month of November settled, while America celebrates the Thanksgiving, which is also a beautiful Holiday, I unfortunately have little fall, barely no Halloween nor Thanksgiving, those are not widely celebrated or in some cases known holidays in Brazil, but I have Christmas, and it is not even close of being just a consolation prize, it is in fact the best of times anyway! It was quite a horrible year for Brazilians, due to advance in arbitrary rule, judicial insecurity and taxation like we haven't seen before, a tax rate that was already immense. The middle class is in peryl, and we have the hopeless feeling that our lives won't not onl...

In Which we say Farewell to February! Short Month only in name

 Hello everyone, and good morning, and happy Monday! A new week, and soon a new month, March! March that will bring the dawn of Spring in the north, and the dawn of Fall/Winter where I live. Classes are returning, presencially, and I'm going back to the college I used to study before, also, something I'm excited for, and I hope with reason. Anyway, one step at a time.



Speaking of one step at a time, I got the new phone I was longing for, an iPhone 11, such an upgrade! A juicy expensive powerful upgrade! My previous iPhone SE served me well for 3 years, but starting in 2021, the plans for changing devices were starting to lay its foundations in my head. That cellphone was older than this blog, even, could you imagine? Anyway, those plans were halted when I needed to change Laptops, because my old one decided to break down on me. But, at the doors of 2022, the plans for a newer iPhone were brought back, and here we are! I couldn't be happy with the iPhone I got, my only complaint for the time being is the 64gb of storage I have available, still, the new phone is a massive upgrade from the SE 1st gen. I thought I wasn't gonna need a bigger screen. Now, just a few days into it, I can't imagine myself using a smaller screen anymore. The camera is so much better, a camera that was already good on the SE. Improvements and advancements in such technology are impressive, specially because we thought the SE camera to be a great one already. It wasn't an upgrade that didn't meet criticism or was devoid of challenges, though. But, I love iPhones, and I will manage my bills, already have everything on paper,  and it willl be fine in the end, I'm sure.

So, February was a very very hectic month, by my own fault, because I wanted to switch phones, I got excited with the prospect of getting a job or internship, without realizing the commitment that would require. It's easy to make decisions when you are at vacation, but as soon as the chores return, you see that many decisions don't survive for long. My mind was working all the time in order to sell the old phone, update my resume, apply for work, and finally, when I heard of the design program in my previous college, to return there asap. A lot of paperwork, moving around, making difficult talks and insisting on my plans... it was mentally exhausting. Therefore, I hope I can rest a bit more this March.

As I said before, things are looking up, but I keep my feet on the ground. One step at a time. Nothing finishes abruptly, it is a gradual process of normalization. Such is the plans for the beginning of March.

Today is a rainy day, which is wonderful. I need to take my meds, to brush my teeth, one step at a time. I long to return home, as I am on the beach house, for the Carnival Holiday.. One step at a time, I must repeat.

Thank you ever so much, my dear reader, my friend. for hanging out with me today once again. For being here, it means so much!!! I'm so filled with joy to have you here! Thank you I say again. And I see you real soon!! Without any headache on the horizon, apart from some recurring stuff, I should keep on writing here as much as I can! Like I said, see you real soon!!!! Love ya!
