In Which I think of the book project and brainstorm briefly on it!

Hello, my friend, reader of this present post! I am happy to see you once again. It is great to be here. How are you? Hopefully the week went fine? As for me, I am okay, I'd say. The birthday week, so to speak, was relatively uneventful, except for some bursts of anxiety at the evening of day 12, precisely at the day of celebration. Family time can be a challenge...  I often think if my book idea would go anywhere... I wanted to write my thoughts on urban planning and architecture, and yet I imagine any path I take, will likely be faced wirh cruel scrutiny, and the only variable will be what will the lane they will pick, if any. Firstly, I did read the great book by Mrs. Jacobs on the death and life of great American cities, and wanted to emulate it. I thought on a research, then I thought it would be better to write from my life experience instead.. perhaps I should do a life experience writing, with researches if proven necessary? The fact is I am gloomy about brazilian cities an...

In which we reach the last day of 2018. Happy New Year

Hello everyone! Happy Monday to you! Good Afternoon and I wish you the best! Happy New Year's Eve! We're here on day 31st of December, waiting for the Unknown, 2019! The Christmas decorations suffer some changes, they turn white and silver, one by one the Santas are gone, back to the box, back to their storage space. Red and Green become Gold and Silver, and soon we'll be back to day 1 of a new year. If things go well, it will be the 1st year anniversary of my blog, and I'll be here hopefully, writing the whole year! It's risky to say things like that. My friend, wisely, said I should not put too much pressure on things, what will happen shall happen. He's right, but me, Oh me, I don't want the wrong thing to happen, I can't take it. I don't want to stop blogging, I don't want my friendships to die, I don't want my plants to go away, I don't want to lose my stuff, I don't want to die, I don't want to lose a subject. I lost a subject, some friendships are gone, some plants have died, I lost some stuff, my sunglasses are yet to be found, some plans don't work, some years take the wrong turn. I'll never be used to this. I don't think anyone will. I don't want to accept that. I'm stubborn. Well, but it happens. I don't admit the possibility of it, but it does. On February I thought 2018 could be my best year since 2012. It was not. But it was not another 2014. No. And I'm still learning. And as much as I'm stubborn, my friend is right, and it will be fine. Some people I said Happy 2017 I won't be saying Happy 2018, and some people I didn't know the existence in 2017 I sent the huge messages in 2018. I don't care what comes tomorrow, we can face it together, the way old friends do. That's what ABBA say, and that's what I believe, it's not who I am, but it's something I strive to achieve one day. I'm sure my friendships will last though, I'm sure my glasses will be here though. My plants will live again, I'll find my lost stuff. I will finish the drawing, I'll recover the lost subjects. I suck at studying, but well, I will, don't ask me how, somehow I will, I don't know how, but I will. I wont let anyone push me in the future saying "you did it once, you can do it again" because I'm not sure how I did it once in the first place, but anyway, their intention is good, and though it annoys me, well, sometimes love can be annoying, but it's a good feeling anyway, and I appreciate it. There's a nice ABBA song for this time of the year, one that I'll share it with you guys now, Youtube and Spotify!



It's amazing how ABBA has always the right thing to say. We are indeed at the end of a decade. 2019! Wow, look how far we've come. What will be next for us in 2020? What will we say in 2029? Who knows? Indeed my friend is right. What will be shall be.
Well, and talking about possibilities, tell me:

Michael Sanchez asks this in this cover of this amazing song, and so do I! Always a nice question! As for me, I'll be with my Aunt and mom and grandparents! It will be great, and I hope I get to see the fireworks as well! And since we're here, let me share with you the last picture of 2019!


The Christmas Decoration in New Year Style! My plants will have new vases this 2019, and hopefully they'll thrive and I may add new plants to my life!! I want a nice Dutch Tuja! Hopefully I'll get one! A 2019 filled with hope for you! Thank you for everything this year, dear reader! You are the very Best! Remember Christmas is the whole year, and the season goes until January 5th. Wish you the best indeed. Many blessings to you! See you next year. Thank you everyone who made my 2018 better, thank you for every stuff I learnt, thank you for this blog. Thank you.
