In Which one cannot build a nice house in rocky unstable foundations

Good morning, dear reader of this post, my friend. How are you, in this first week of July? I hope your last month went well? For me, because of the college work being more demanding alongside other woes, I cannot say I particularly thrived in those two last ones, neither in May, or June. It is not fault of Winter or Fall, and I will not take people blaming the best weather of the year for the faults of some assignments and deep loneliness. I am sad that, in June, I could not do much to aknowledge Midmas, but it is not fault of this quirky little thing I have tried to make it happen with me, and again, I won't take people blaming my longing for Christmas. And if anything, there is July, we will see if I will do a postcard or something. Anyway, the weather is lovely, and even with my financial concerns, I cannot say exactly that June will end on a sad note or downward trend. Just turbulence. If anything, it was also the blog's anniversary on the 8th! That is wonderful, isn't...

In Which we say Farewell November! First official month of Christmas Season!

Hello everyone! Good morning, happy Monday! Merry Christmas Season, Happy Thanksgiving season also, I know the hype for saying thank you died out a bit, but it is always important to say so anyway! And happy second last day of November! How was your month overall? My month was alright I'd say, just enjoying the computer, didn't spent much overall, as the end of October saw me refunding AOE4 for lack of having a proper machine to run it. I did spént some at the end, because it's Christmas anyway, I got a subscription for some music course, that I believe it can add something to my life, I got Stellaris, which is a game I've been on the fence to get it for a while, this end of November is not only Christmas, but also the season of big discounts, so better take the best of what we can get. Christmas decorations arrived late, unfortunately, but fortunately I already took some pretty wonderful pictures of it. In spite of some bad stuff that happened yesterday, which I'll tell, won't hide anything from you guys, a friend blocked me for the like 10th time on Discord, always feels like the last time we'll chat, but well, anyway. Time moves forward, and sometimes I get sick of his lack of thick skin. And I'm saying this because sometimes I feel really sick of being "moderate" or "looking the both sides", nah, I'm representing myself, I'm saying that without the care of looking biased. Anyway, Back to Christmas! Took some nice pictures, more to come, of course, and I'm glad I got to have a very big night of sleep, because otherwise I'd still be sad and upset due to friend issues. I had a very good breakfast, which is nice, also! And I'm already searching for some wallpapers for December, of course it will be filled with Christmas and wonderfulness! Let me share one of the pictures I got:


Found it on the internets and I'm very happy to see it! All the beautiful blue of the night and the yellow of the reindeers! A dream come true! I've been talking to a friend from Austria these days, he is wonderful and we have a lot in common, such as the love for Christmas, a love that many share, thankfully! In my fashion, I'll also change subject just like that, I will remember this November as the Europa Universalis era, one that came after the vacumn that I was having after the Anno 1800 era. Important to say, I still love Anno, and they are coming with some more content soon, not sure if it'll be the last content for the game, ever, and they will be working on a new title for the franchise in the future, so we better enjoy each moment! But yes, I've been playing lots of Europa, it is a mad fun game, it puts me in the charge of running a nation, waging wars, raising monuments and upgrading them, expanding territory, taking care of the budget, of the diplomacy, describing like that, reminds me of Civ, but it's only superficially similar to Civ. Well, I'm overstaying here, the post is getting long! You guys know how I feel about long posts, don't you, at this point? Can't believe it will be 4 years of blogging this 2022! Wow! Well, hope I can write some more real soon, specially when December arrives, but maybe (30% are the odds) before that also. See you all real soon, wish you all the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
