In Which we remember the vibrant little golden epoch of New York

Good evening, sir friend, reader of this present post! How are you, this day of switching of seasons? I am okay. The month is moving fast I'd say. Last Friday we had the rememberance day for the horrendous attack of 9/11, on the World Trade Center Complex, and I also did mourn the horrendous destruction of the twin buddhas by the islamic jihadis. Such a  year of tragedies, 2001. I was around 3, and I can only remember shadows from that time, it is very flickering, but I recall the tv news and my parents having breakfast. Wrote about it on Instagram, about the loss of that beautiful monument, that in a relatively short time, as with the Eiffel Tower in Paris, went from disliked to beloved. A worthy, earnt landmark to New York's renaissance epoch, and the upcoming little and vibrant golden age of that city on the 90's, and that would last some years after the fateful event. All I can say is to remember the victims, and do not let the memory of the little golden epoch of New Y...

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!
