In Which the fields turn to Magenta

Good evening, my dear friend, jolly reader of this present post! Happy Wednesday! How are you? Hope you have been okay so far? I am okay... it has been quite an exhausting couple of days, as I have been following the situation in Iran more closely than I'd like, as it turns out. I am not sure how to proceed, even, the news are quite depressing. They talk of dozen thousands slaughtered, and the count grows by the minute. I thought the islamic regime would not take too long to fall, and though in retrospect that may be it, given there has been, in reality, less than a month since the height of the protests began, still, in two days or so, the devil Khomenei has been responsible for 12 thousand dead or so. One can expect that regimes with messianic complex, and gnostic at that too, would be capable of evil deeds, given they would always have the sanction to do so in their twisted minds. But... twelve thousand, or more, and the numbers will grow and grow fast. And it is not a move that...

In Which June has been a net Positive

Good afternoon, dear friend, reader of this post! I wish you a happy Wednesday! How are you, today? How is the weather? As on my end, the weather is pleasant, the day is around 22-28 celsius, allowing me to rest in comfortable blankets and wear my sweaters, if I choose to do so! It is indeed my favorite time of the year, concerning temperature. And as for me, I am okay, or at least in good spirits at the moment. Tuesday went alright, I played some Anno 1800, a favorite of mine for a while, now, even if I play it in bursts. Today, planning to do the same, as well as some other games, I did get some Ancient Roman ones that I hope to also play. I started this Wednesday by trying the game Old World once again, which is a confusing one, taking me a while to get used to, if at all... I am eagerly expecting the new DLC for Victoria 3, which will come out the next Monday, less than a week from now...

Apart from games, I have been reading the biography of Harun Al Rashid, king of the 1001 nights, of the palaces of gold of the Abbassid Empire. Progressing in it slowly though, even if it has 260 something pages, I am still on page 80 something... a lot to go, still. Recently I got new books as well, I believe I mentioned it. Seven new electronic books to read on Kindle, plus two other to read on my iBook app. I don't have much opportunity to get out of the house, so I prefer that way. Even if I am excited to move towards other books, I am still happy to take my time with Harun. I am not sure why it makes me so uncomfortable to say I want to draw, like I will break a muscle or something, but I do want to do it at some point soon, I have a drawing to finish as well, a relatively big one. 


Some flowers I found on the realm of Pinterest! Quite enchanting!

Can you believe June is already starting its last slice? Dang! It seems both going fast and under our noses. I soon will write a post wrapping up the month where the weather transitioned to a way more pleasant situation... so far, I suppose the net of June has been positive. I mean, on the sense of making plans for the future as well, such as thinking of my birthday gift, wanting to get the new iPhone... doing some drawings here and there... one step at a time I suppose is all we can do! How has your June been going? Do let me know sometime! It was also the blog birthday, 6 years of writing here is insane... with all of that, I suppose it is time to wrap up today's entry! I went nice and easy in this one, on the sense of taking my time to write it. I hope I also may return real soon here with more journals, ideas, thoughts and quotidian affairs... hope it may be perhaps on the weekend? I know next week will have the release of Vic3's new expansion, so that is amazing... until then, farewell, wish you the best!!
