In Which Life is not SimCity: Washington Square and the Austrian Connection

Good morning, dear friend! Here I return with some more thoughts and ideas about urban planning and so on. I tend to avoid writing so much all at once, but it cannot be helped as I had this idea in mind, I would love to share! Of course, I want first to ask how are you, how are things? As for me, I am a bit fatigued, but not too bad. I pray and hope today can be productive, I want to make some effort and go deliver some documents at the school and hopefully I may find if I can have an internship or not. The weather is miserable, summer ends with a strong and unbearable moist heat, the worst kind. Hope you are havinf a better temperature time today. With that being said, would love to explore this thought I had, as follows: I think I could have mentioned before, I am reading this excellent book by the writer Jane Jacobs, Death and Life of Great American Cities, and it got me thinking that simulation games have really little to do with real life, have they? I say this as a person that lo...

In Which I lose a teeth

Good morning dear friend, reader of this post, and happy Saturday! How are you today and how are things going? I wish you the best, hope that you are well. How is the weather? Here, it is hot and hotter, as we approach summer. Something not great happened to me recently, this Wednesday to be more precise. Talking about it is very painful, but I want to make this effort. I was going to the doctor walking, something unusual for me. Brazilian sidewalks are as chaotic as chaos can be, they have a lot of… let’s put it, artistic liberties. I tripped and fell into one of those liberties, and I lost a tooth and a lot of blood in the process. Yes, I have a hole in my mandible now. It was such a powerful impact I didn’t feel many pain, because of the shock. Coughing and spilling blood, I arrived at the doctor, but just to have a checkpoint. Mom was working, and had to drop everything to come to my rescue and take me to the emergency room, where they managed the bleeding, and gave me the diagnosis: my tooth was gone, now I’d need to evaluate it further and likely prepare for a surgery. Bleeding is gone, but the trauma of the impact stays. My brain plays the fall in my head on a minute basis, where I could feel the tooth shutting down on the speed of light from my body. Again and again, causing me to sink deeper, just for now I hope, into depression. I haven’t been able to do much at all, I just am not on a headspace for it unfortunately. I would love to say it is due to the teeth loss, but I was like it before, the teeth only being a physical reason to feel sad and apathetic. Or I wish I was apathetic, now I’m frightened, and without my front tooth. I have to say, this stinks. Stinks a lot, actually… I wish I could’ve written on the blog earlier but at the end of the day I could barely do my chores, such as studying and the activities for college. Worse than that, I haven’t been able to play videogames, can’t derive any joy from anything. So… yea, for now I’ve been living in my bed, and feeding on milk and chocolate, I can’t have coffee for now, which is something I miss already… so, yes, this is an update on my situation. I pray and hope I may be able to write some more here on the blog soon, but I need to rest my mind from what happened. So, this is it for today, thank you for being here, and I see you again real real soon.
