In Which one can still feel the cold steel of the Dell brand laptop...

Good evening, kind friend, dear reader of this present post! How are you? I hope you have been well? Of course, do let me know! And how is the weather? Much to my relief, where I am at, it is still partially winter, it has been hard to say when winter will end and I would be certain it is spring. It did not rain as much in this season, alas, and I adore the rain.  I did not have the most productive of days yesterday, the last Saturday of September 2026. In fact, I was exhausted, I slept through most of it. And, what else to do? I could not bring myself on doing anything. No desire to engage in any game, no mindspace for drawing, and I could not write either. I just slept. A dear friend mentioned perhaps I needed the extra sleep, so it is what it is.  I was thinking of a song, which is the one part of the piece of Pelleas et Melisande, this time done by my favorite composer, Gabriel Faure.

In which we talk about a beautiful porcelain sculpture!

Hello and good afternoon everyone!! We're here on the beginning of another week, and I hope everything may be great for all of us! To celebrate this, I wanted to share with you all a picture that will bring us to the year of 2017! I like to call 2017 the year of the crazy roller coaster with no seatbelts or security bars, because it felt that way for me, too much stuff going on, too many changes at the same place and time, it's enough to drive everyone nuts, and I'm no exception! But, this picture I'm talking about was taken before the storm, in the end of my vacations. I just graduated from school and was about to start college, it was a mild period of my life, with some anxiety moments because I had no idea what college would be like, but overall not bad at all! Here's the picture I'm talking about:


This is probably my favorite picture I took in 2017 and portraits this wonderful porcelain sculpture of two amazingly dressed nobles from the 18th century having a relaxed moment. I just love Rococo and the art from the mid 18th century, and this definitely sounds like it, which pleases me way too much. At the background we have a garden, which I think fitted the moment well. Those sophisticated carefree moments are indeed something to be celebrated, as are memories of past vacations of life. 
And here we are, at the end of another post! I'm so happy to have you here, reading this! I hope you liked it, and I see you soon for more!
