In Which I don't like April Fools

Good morning, my good friend, dear reader of this post! Happy new month, happy new Wednesday, and say no to April Fools. If I can have a say, on the domain of my boudoir, there is no place, here, for such foul test on one's patience. I have been time and again a victim to such pranks and jokes. As such, no, I do not have any ounce of patience with April Fools. I don't understand why people still engage on such tasteless jokes, it is no longer the late 1990's and early 2000's. I don't think pranks went out of style because of the rise of "woke", but it was coincidental that a bad thing went away while another bad thing gained notoriety at similar positions. I am happy that this time of political correctness is drawing to a close, and I say that because the supposed man "behind it all" so to speak, the man that admins BlackRock, said something of the sort in a recent interview. At some point, the losses become too big to ignore, and the bad outcome...

In Which I finish the AEIOU mission tree part for Austria!

Hey there, friend! Good morning, how are you? I'm... okay, I'd say, it were a very exhausting couple of days, mentally, reason why I didn't update the blog. Today I don't think I have much to say, I mean, I could talk about college and how frustrating it all has been, could mention I haven't been drawing much, either, but anyway, like a new friend says "don't force yourself too much" and I don't plan on doing it. Nah, none of those things make me wanna write it here, or anywhere, for that matter. Again, I've been playing a lot of Europa Universalis, this time as Austria, where I managed to do the AEIOU on the mission tree for them, which was my goal! I mean, my goal was to get the achievement of the same name on Steam, BUT that I don't think I'll manage to do so, at this point, as Austria really is not the best colonial nation, and the mission has a part in which you have to adventure yourself in India, China and Australia! To be fair, I managed to complete I'd say 65% of the tree, so I'm pretty proud of myself already! Maybe I could play something else, next? I don't know, I was playing some AOE3 some days ago, could always revisit it. Maybe some Anno as well? I could just look on my steam library for something... There is an expansion coming for The Sims soon, yea, ANOTHER ONE, one of the two thousands out there. This one is focused on the teenage years. I guesss could be fun, specially for those looking to live the High School life. I don't know if I'll get it straight away, I've been spending very loosely the past months, I want a bit more austerity in expenditure and balance the budget better, I'm worried that my main credit card increased my limit, and that can invite me to make myself more financially fragile. Well, speaking of finances, here's my best of Instagram for today!


This one is an old one, back in July-August 2015, I believe, when I was doing a painting course, it was really nice, I believe I mentioned this course a couple times here on the blog, too! It's a reproduction of Amaryllis (that I'm probably writing wrong) by Piet Mondrian, a painter more famous for his geometric paintings. I mean, Mr. Mondrian has some pleasant works, but I really dislike his movement, I say I can see some value in it, without endorsing it, which I don't, at all.
I believe this post is getting too big, so I should finish it soon. I'm pretty happy with it, considering I wasn't expecting to write as much as I did! And again, thank you for being here, dear reader, you are the bestenerino! See you again real real REAL real soon!
