August 29th

Nearest trees outside of my apartment window are already showing signs of yellowing with the weather forecast promising this entire week to be mostly cloudy with occasional rain coming along the way. My favorite season of all the seasons was coming to an end.

As I occasionally look outside the window and the busy intersection and the trees and the cloudy sky, I ponder and wonder the last couple of months. It was relatively cooler than usually, which was surprising, with only one day being scorching hot with the added humidity. That could"ve been a perfect day to go for a swim, but I never did: was too tired after a visit in the city. I kind of regret that.

I always get bit somber and melancholic upon seeing the weather getting colder and wetter, with leaves slowly starting to fall off before entering the colder climate. I know that a fair amount of contacts, friends and acquaintances are feeling jovial as the better weather finally kicks in (and I"m not to blame them for having a different season as their favorite for a reason or another), but to me, it usually means that I have to struggle with the nights getting darker and longer that saps my mental energy more quicker than necessary.

Not all things are hopeless: as I gaze outside and see how the passage of time is kicking again, I wonder how I"ve managed to get as far as I"ve done now and what hardships or changes may come along my way. I know that I could use a bit of a change from constantly being in front of my computer all day long. Small steps at a time, as the saying goes.

A brief doodle based on my sudden mood. Once again, I apologize for the lack of art posted since the last one, let alone any updates in general. I will be making a journal sometimes soon detailing about my current situation eventually. I hope your summer has been a fine one for the most part, you all.
