Oh my, I exist!
Hello, friend. How are you doing? I hope you're happy.
How about me? Well, I think I'm better than I was some months ago, also due to the fact I'm able to make this entry.
This website was abandoned for quite long time. I'm also not very good at prioritize my wants and desires regarding creation ⸻ so that's that.. Anyhow, to simply put: I like to do a lot of things all at once and I lose myself in the process.
This is not good, because, well, I want to see tons of stuff come to life! However, my creations depend of my own inner capacity to bring them to existence, yes?
Also I recommend this entry from Manin. I think sums my feelings well.
Returning around the topic of this site: there's a TON of stuff to do. I won't say I will be popping up a lot, but I may hop back here once or twice.
I thought of deleting my site, because I struggle feeling confortable online sharing my opinions. The internet is here.. forever? It's scarry and also reassuring. Due to that, I'm still not exactly sure how my 'voice' will turn out, but it's overdue the fact that I should scream.
And you too!
After all, if we have mouths, we should scream.
I was going to make a small post about Christmas but, simply put, I spent the day eating and helping my family. For the feast, I made a salad. I will probably repeat that dish for tomorrow. Why? Because it's FUCKING HOT in Brazil. Due to that, I normally don't want to eat 'full meals' per se. For example, my favorite dish from the things we had to eat was fish! Due to that, I will share my recipe with you:
What you will need for Tsulli's non-original-salad-that-I-got-the-recipe-somewhere:
Please keep in mind that I'm brazilian so, descriptions can be a bit off due to that.
English version:
Assemble everything into a big bowl and stir.
For dressing you will need a blender to blend:
Just put the dressing on top of the salad and stir again. I use Shoestring potatoes (Batata Palha) in the end first because I like it and second to make it more presentable.
Em português:
Mexe, mexe, e remexe em uma vasilha top.
Para o molho da salada você vai precisar de um liquidificador. Bata:
And that's it! Here is a photo of how it looks:
It's a good side dish!
That's all I wanted to share for now. Tomorrow, I won't probably be able to write anything, so I wanted to say something in advance.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for reading this text and also checking up on me. Neocities is a great site and has an awesome community! I extend my big virtual hug to you!
Whether you celebrate the New Years now or later, or not celebrate at all, just know I am thankful for 2025. With their ups and downs, another year has gone by.
Here's a curse (or perhaps a blessing?): 2026 is going to be GREAT! We don't have a choice. Tcharam~
Really. Awesome things will happen. It's already happening, because you are here!
Happy Holidays, my dear friend.
I began this blog in the end of the year 2024.
By that time, I was very focused on layout instead of content. 2025 came by and I also found myself struggling with looks and 'what my personal site' should and shouldn't be. Due to that, I hardly ever uploaded anything that I deem trully significant.
Unconsciously, that also extended to me as a person.
A lot of things happenned and piled up, all at the same time; I lost people, things, jobs and places and it triggered my need for perfectionism.
Turns out, as expected, life won't be 100% perfect, no matter how willing we are to 'fix it'.
Lately, I'm trying to be kinder: to myself and also to my life, in general. Turns out trying to be strict doesn't cut for me. It doesn't makes things easier, as much as I would desire.
It only makes things worse.
So, I'm trying to do one thing at a time. I do know it is an overtold advice, however, it is a good one.
I'm trying to apply it by trying to 'GET OUT OF MY HEAD' and doing more. Also not think much about the 'result' of things, because I am someone prone to overthinking and overanalyzing.
Turns out, (what a surprise!), that starting something and keeping it going is the hardest part of any worthwhile endeavor.
And doing anything worthwhile is tough. I'm trying to make things clear and stress-free as possible both here in this garden and also outside, in my life.
That's it for now. Take care, everyone.
