In Which there is a shy but perceptive trend upwards: Quiet good moments ahead? One can hope...

Good morning, my friend, reader of this present post!! Wish you, of course, a wonderful Sunday, Sunday of Christmas season 2025, the last Sunday for this chaotic year. I should mention that it is not a bad one, on the whole, but definitely a very mind intensive one, as such, exhausting. I could compare it to a very intensive town holiday celebration, where on the whole, there were incidents, but not enough to spoil the bigger picture.  Today, much to my glee, has been a productive day, after many other days where I felt terrible, slept through most of it, and when awaken, second guessed my every move, mind working much more than it should, I suppose that is the OCD. The reason why I am on a better state, I trust, is due to having all my meds again. And also, having access to the appropriate sweetener again. Not only coffee tastes better with sucralose rather than sugar, it is also the case that sugar is not exactly good to have as casually. I do love it and will never disavow it, b...

In Which I start a (more) Personal Journal!

Good morning, dear reader of this post! Happy Monday and I wish you the best, how are you? How is the weather? Here, the weather is on the process of turning into winter, the sun already feels less abusive. I'm okay, even taking in consideration my college troubles and financial issues of the day. I don't regret purchasing the shoes I purchased, but well, it does take a tool on my balance. Still waiting for them, as well, I hope they arrive soon. I could use a haircut, but not at the moment, because of the financial issues, perhaps next month, at some point...



My last session with my psychiatrist was so enjoyable! We chatted about some qualities I have that could help me start a career or something of the sort, and in that train of thought, he recommended me to write some more, just as a way of reading what's in my mind and so on, organize it. I liked the idea, and were we are, I started a personal journal! Does this means the blog is over? I think it's the opposite, because now I'll have more creative juices flowing, and with me getting so with me getting some more raw stuff out, this may increase the quality of the posts, though that would be more of an indirect consequence than a direct one. I thought I was done with Europa Universalis yesterday, because I had a trainwreck as Byzantium. I was going quite alright, till I was dragged into a religious war by my allies, the Austrians, and shortly afterwards the Mamluks declared on me, devastating my country further. Total disaster.  But now, I started a new run as Portugal, and I'm going quite well playing against the Castillians and the Aragonese. Still a lot to do, such as keep exploring the world, getting rid of Spain as a colonial competitor... In order to explore the world, I first need to research national ideas, and then get the explorations idea, I'm still some steps back into it. In this game, I had a civil war, for example, that went terribly, I went bankrupted too, so those are some quite bad debuffs.

On the drawing realm, I slowly started working on coloring the drawing I'm currently on the process of finishing. It's one with a lot of details so it feels like a daunting task! When I finish this one, I also plan on drawing some more, even if for myself only, because I got a bit demotivated when sharing it with people, because some criticism of my work I can't properly address at the moment, like "oh your faces are similiar towards each other" to which I don't know yet what to do concerning this one... Anyway, one step at a time. I was going to make more progress on the drawing, but yes, I feel like playing Europa once again.

I think today's post is done, so let's wrap it up! Hope I can be back again real soon with some more words... See you again real soon, much love and cheers!
