They say you should never go into writing a blog post without something that resembles a plan in your head.

Up yours, they. I'm breaking ALL the rules *dons John Lennon shades upon self*

Well, apparently printing the Internet is quite a feat. Well, here's writing the blog to add to that ass-staggering amount.

I wonder how they'd print out the porn. Flip-books? HTML? OR, perhaps, with that new fangled, moving-image screens they plan on putting in Magazines. Oh baby.

So updates about my life, why? You're bored, I'm going to entertain you. Don't question me. It's not wise to question me. Well, it's wiser to question me politely.

Starting school soon, grandad died (I love and miss him, so much.), I've made new friends (lots of them) and am aiming to heighten my writing skills. Huzzah.

I need to buy lots of things to update myself for winter and whatnot. Oh baby.

On a small quest to be more of myself around people, and make better first impressions. I do love the first impressions.

I've been playing this MMORPG a lot, Perfect world. Really getting my fix of RPG games. Wahey. But I still desire to learn how to play the Ukulele, and that is a thirst that is still unsatisfied and dry.

Oh! I got my own room now, that's pretty awesome, no?


Okay okay, here it is, the long and maybe deep debacle that is the product of my reflection and impromptu writing. So, with no further adieu...
So in this transition between Summer and Autumn, from heat to cold, from blue to gray, from sun to rain, I've seen another transition. Joyous to gloomy. As much as we love the trinkets of Winter, such as layers of clothing (zoodies and hoodies ftw baby), warm mugs of Hot Cocoa, Tea and Coffee, nice, healthy suppers, the smell of rain in the morning and so on and so forth, we will still, subconsciously at least, hold the aesthetically pleasing brightness of Summer close to our hearts. We can't help it, it's part of being human.

Something else evolution should kill off.

So, this leaves us all with a society of people conglomerating in crabby moods, who long for the proper arrival of Winter. And to be frank, it puts quite the damper on the happy springs in my heart.

But there is a way to counter all this. We as humans should properly tune ourselves to the change in climate. We expect the weather to leave us unaffected, while we carry on with our little things in life; our appointments and social gatherings, or chores and errands and so on and so forth. But by ignoring the weather, we get this uneasy feeling underneath. That feeling, my dears, is the feeling of the climate-carpet being pulled from under your feet. (side note: dear GOD that climate-carpet phrase comes off as corny. Damn, what's next? Quiet-quilt? Weather-walk?)

The Weather-walk (double-damn!)
I suggest, to those that like physical exertion, to walk at different wakes of the day. To really take some time of isolation and peace to feel the weather, to walk in nature and literally take up all the senses. The cold, the humidity, the lower levels of light - all of it. Like this, you're starting to really set yourself up for Winter, and you'll start to get ready for it. Sounds like a crock, given, but I can't say it won't help. This alone time is always good to clear your head.

And if you're more of the artsy type, then be a creative person, go out and take photos, go on your roof and paint, walk in the park and sketch trees and people, improvise and play your instrument, do what may feel right.

In other news, there's hope for rap! A new local artist, No Bling Show, seems to be group that uses the Maltese Language on a proffessional level, while tackling some of the darker issues of society. Their new video: Lucija u Samwel.
