Along with this blog post, I also made a playlist of some of my favorite songs this month. Give it a listen if you’d like. Summer’s ending soon; finally.  I don’t have a problem with summer. I don’t hate it or dislike it; it’s just there. When people think of summer, they think of vacations,…

Now for something more recent I feel like this year has been and probably will end up being one of the most important years of my life. We’re already halfway through and a lot has happened. I graduated, got my CS degree, and started my career as a software engineer, it really feels like I’ve…

Reader, please keep in mind that I wrote this over six months ago. Thanks! November has almost always been a pretty good month for me, and this year it was no different. What can I say about November. There’s Thanksgiving, my sister’s birthday is this month, and I get a well deserved break from school.…

The second part of 500 Days of Summer is still coming. Before that, I wanted to write about what’s been going on since school started back up. It’s been a rough semester. I have an online class that I haven’t submitted a month’s worth of assignments for. This is not a good look, since at…

This summer was one of the longest ones I’ve ever had. It went from April to September. The summer comes and goes, the days are long, and the nights are short; there’s so much, and so little, to do during summer. It’s not my favorite time of the year, but I love it just the…

The 31 days of March felt like 31 years. I convinced myself that I was going to write a blog post every day during March. I was going to do it with a writing group I found online, but I didn’t follow through with it. Each day I’d get a notification on my phone for…

February has been interlude month for me the past few years. I haven’t had anything to look forward to in a years; of course, there’s Valentine’s Day, but I haven’t had the privilege of calling someone my Valentine yet. It’s a pretty holiday, and I like the theme, the flowers, and the hearts. I wanted…

We’re more than halfway through January, there’s a new president, and Corona is slowly on it’s way out. I have high expectations for the year already; I think I have them every year, but this year feels different.  I’ve thought about some goals I have for the year, and nothing’s definite, but one thing I…

What a year this was.  It went by quick and it went by slow. It was purgatory. It was the best, worst year. It was a lot of things; but we can say that we lived through a pandemic, or survived it at least. I’m not sure you can consider what we went through this…

November was a decent month for me. It had its ups and downs for sure but overall, and I feel like I say this way too often, I can’t complain.  I can’t write this blog post and not touch on the main event of November; the election. The whole thing was electric. People were talking…

The time between the last blog post and this one feels like a whole year. It’s almost November and I am just now posting this. It’s late. I spent the whole month putting this one off for no reason other than laziness. I made a playlist to accompany this blog post. The links for it…

I don’t think there’s ever been a year where I’ve seen as much negativity and tragedy as I’ve seen this year. It’s everywhere TV, the news, social media, everywhere you turn to it’s a constant stream of suffering. That much negativity and bad news is harmful to one’s mental and wellbeing.  This year more than…

It’s a hot summer here in AZ.  Quarantine is back again, after a couple weeks of regression to a semi-normalcy. COVID cases are up, higher than anything that’s been seen before here in the state, and restrictions have been placed again. If it hasn’t been made obvious, COVID is not a political issue, or a…

COVID is here and it’s looking to stay for a while. Since November of last year, there were initial reports being made on it. Here in the US it wasn’t being taken seriously until it started knocking on our doors. There was more than enough time to prepare for it but it was treated as…

I didn’t make a post for February and I haven’t written since January so here we are. I’ve got some things that I feel like I should share.  So far 2020 has gotten off to a tough start. It’s passing me by and I am falling behind. I’m losing the race. Right now I feel…
