In Which we return to SimCity 2013, victim of blind spots...

Good afternoon, my friend, reader of this post! Happy Tuesday, how are you? How have the first week of 2025 treated you? An auspicious start, so I hope! As for me, I am okay... at moments, because I have been trying some different things on my games and computer, I feel in the dark, walking in circles with no purporse and so I become frustrated. The hobby has also caused me to be less mentally available for drawing or writing, at least over the past few days, which is also a source for dismay. In retrospect, though, it's not all bad. I think my first drawing of 2025, the cherry tree, tradition since 2022, looked quite charming, and I trust I will do some more at some point real soon, there is no reason for any stress I'd say, even if I stress all the same. The year caused me to become surprised with its walking, because on a chain of events that started with SimCity 4, released 2003, I ended up returning to the infamous title SimCity 2013, famous for ending SimCity as a franchi...

In Which Friendship is a Blessing, and my Plants need some more care...

Good morning, my good friend, reader of this post! Happy Thursday, and I wish you the best! Is everything alright, so far? Do let me know! And, as for me, I am okay. Had a bit of a hard time yesterday night... one of those moments of loneliness... I slept on it, and as I woke up, I fortunately had some better moments. I played some Sims 3, a game that I will return to later on. I also had the opportunity to have a wonderful chat with dear friend Evan. He is a blessing! A wonderful friend, indeed. How grateful I am of dear friends such as Evan, and Tibor, and Charles! I wish I could talk with dear Johannes more frequently, but here I also mention him, as I should, he is a wonderful guy that I appreciate a lot! How beautiful to have other people, independent minds, that see value in you, and are around to chat with you, and to lift you up! I am grateful, and I desire only to give back to them, lift them up, and to appreciate them. Seeing friendship towards this lense really puts it into perspective. Nothing more beautiful than friendship with no other interest than to get to know one another and to smile because you are around good people. I cannot get enough of my dear friends. I hope I don't bother them, in return.

I was looking at the plants I have at my house, the ones that are assignated to me. I wish they were fairing better. I will not say I am a disaster with succulents, I certainly improved over the years. But I still had some of them dying on my watch, others getting too stretched and breaking... I should rethink my position on cutting the plants. Perhaps that is for their best development. Letting them grow too much, stretching beyond where they can sustain themsenves, that causes issues. I should also take some of them to my aunt, perhaps also get new succulents. I have some vases to use, that can use landscaping, even... ah, if only those were my biggest issues...

I am still concerned over my finances. Mom did pay most of my due, but the rest is still around, and my father is not being able to provide as much these days. Costs still exist, also. I am trying to refrain from spending, but... what else can I cut? I am already scrapping the barrel! Some days, I don't even lunch! Yes... some of the days of this week, I have not lunch. It has been a time of dire financial strain, no end in sight, either... I only pray to God that the evil forces that took over the country don't act once again to destroy what is left of us in the middle class. Those communists will have what they deserve, someday, because God will judge. In the end, truth will prevail, lies cannot sustain themselves, communism being one of the most pervasive lie there is. Anyway... I wish the plants and when to draw were the biggest concerns. They could as well be the only ones I have, because the others are beyond my control...

What else is there to be said? What are the plans for the rest of this month of March? Really, most of all, is to survive the heat, that has been castigating the land. I should also try and do my activities for college. I am studying a more tricky subject now. I hope I may survive it with a passable grade. If I want to someday have a nice work, or the possibility of it... I should do this course. Or... ah, whatever I can get from a history degree... I am not complaining, either, this is the only area I have some proficiency in advance.

So, with that, I should wrap today's post up. When should I be back? Ah, hopefully soon. Hopefully this weekend. Maybe next week. God may provide me with the energy, the desire and the subject for a blog post. I hope, I may perhaps work on a drawing, today, though my therapist said something true, the other day, that a hobby is not necessarily to be done daily. 

Wish you the best, my friend, and I see you again real soon! Real soon, okay? Bye!
