Open Season 2.

Open Season 2 on HBO :)

Good noon. Its May 12th. Cant believe how fast days are going. I'm not disappointed, though :) I am actually quite happy about it. The more days passing by, the lesser the wait. I just hope it comes soon. And I mean literally, SOON :")

So, Im logged in on almost all my accounts on social sites. Im on Tumblr, Twitter, Facebook, Plurk and Blogger. I am currently signing in to Yahoo! Messenger.... Which actually is taking longer than usual. Anyway, I finished two things last night. I was able to do a sketch of a girl, and a colored painting of the skinny angel bitch I drew a few days ago. I will include it in another post in a while.

Anywayyyyy. Today's Mico's day-off from work :> I think he'll come visit. I hope he will. I miss him so much. <3

We're home alone.. Again. Because everybody just left. Lol. Well, its okay though. Im getting used to being left home alone. Besides the peacefulness, I get to do what I want. :D ~

Swish.

I am now in my grandma's room. Sitting on my uncle's bed. :P Why? Because our room is frigggggin' hot today. :| Its unusually hot there. I dont know how my sister manages to stay there. =)) Anyway. I like staying here. It's cool, even if the sun is up so high. Idk why. :)

Well, I am not in the mood to paint. Last night I was. Now Im not anymore :( So, I will do portrait sketching again :) This time, a bit bigger. :D

--------------------

Aquino and Binay still leading.

I hope there will be no scams this election. They should be honest. This is not just for them, for me, or for anyone, its for the welfare of the whole country. May God bless whoever manages the counting. ~

Paint. Paint. More Paint.

This will be my last post for today... I hope. Lol. Im planning on doing a painting tomorrow :) Well, a watercolor painting, not a real canvas painting. I'll do it maybe on a small illustration board only. :D I just had the urge to. Idk why.

Anyway. I made a new FB account, since I cant go reeeeally active on the other one. I needed a way to communicate with my friends. So, yeah. I made one. But not in my name. Lol. I searched for Greek Gods and Goddesses. And came up with Eos and Asteria. :> Cooool. Well, I'm not in such a good mood to blog tonight, since I have blogged a lot today. Hahaha. Anywayssss. Good night, now. I will be resting soon. I just didnt want my blog to be outdated. :D

OMGOMG. Estrada and Aquino - Close fight on Presidency. Binay, number 1 for VP. I hope Aquino wins! ~

iPod.

So today, we found out that almost all our iPods have empty batteries.
I decided to charge all the iPods. My mom's, my sister's and mine.
Yanna's and my mom's were iPod shuffles. Yanna had a first gen shuffle, mom has a second gen shuffle. I have a second gen nano, and a second gen mini, which was corrupted about a year and a half ago. This kinda pushed me to repair my old iPod. :) After syncing all the iPods and charging them, I immediately looked for the old iPod mini, and started to look for manuals on the Apple site for tutorials on restoring, formatting and repairing the old device. I plugged it to my laptop, and waited. It was charging at first. Only charging :| I wanted to stop right there. But my hopes are high. I waited, and while I waited I ate some of the Suman that Lola brought home last night. :D Lol. Anyway, after I ate, I saw my laptop's screen, and the iTunes library suddenly popped up, with the photo of the iPod Mini on it. So that means it is syncing. I was overjoyed. I cleaned up where I ate, and ran straight back here. But I saw some messages saying, I needed to format it. So I did. After all the restoring and the formatting, I am now trying to sync songs into the iPod for use. I have been trying. This is the third time, though. It keeps on saying "Disk cannot be read from or written to" SUCKS BIGTIME.

Okay, now after the fourth time I tried. I GAVE UP. I am now pulling it out. ~

BV.

Wala lang. BV.

My day was bad since it started. I woke up to a hot room, because my mom was blow-drying her hair beside my bed. I waited for everyone to leave before I got up for breakfast, and I was soooo pleased by what I saw --- NOT! There wasnt ANY food prepared. I was too hungry, so I made a cup of chocolate milk, to pass my hunger. Then I cooked pancakes, which I didnt get any credit for, they even got mad, and scolded me. FTW. What was I supposed to do?? Die of hunger?! UGH. I wasnt really feeling well this morning so I lay down and slept. I woke up to another very hot room again. This time, thanks to the mother effin' sun's positioning. Since it was noon, its lunch time. I went out of the room, soaked in sweat. Everyone was there, eating happily. I went to the bathroom to take a bath first, and when I went out, I was about to eat when they announced that there was no more rice. How on earth am I going to eat lunch without rice or even bread around?? My sister and I fought over a box of chocolates which I have been craving for since last night. AND GUESS WHAT? I was the wrong one again because I was scolding my sister for eating too much sweets. Then it lead to a lot of things again. Because everyone was in on the issue. To think that I was talking to MY sister and my sister alone. I went back in the room, slammed the door, and played music as loud as I could possible handle. My mom asked me to eat, I said NO. I will, when everyone leaves.

Fuck interactions. I dont want connection with anyone today, because I am damn sure that no one can change my mood even a bit.

This heat, this condition, they have no consideration! And I cant even go to the mall to be cooled down. How great is my life!? Sucks to be me! Be happy you are not in the same position as me, be happy that you are not me. Because if you were, you would have probably committed suicide by now. Which I've been planning a long time already, but I am too scared to. ~

A success.

Good morning, blog.
Good morning, internet.
Good morning, Mr. HP Pavilion dv2000.
Lol.

I woke up at around 9am today. :) Yessss. I woke up two hours earlier than I usually do! Well, last night, I planned on sleeping early and I logged out before midnight. And guess what? :D I was successful! :) I slept like around 12:30am. Or was that 1am. Well, whatever time that was, It wasnt my usual time of sleep. It was earlier :) And maybe that's the reason why I am up this early, too.

Today is May 10th, Local and National Elections. Whew. I hope no scam will happen this time. Anyway, everybody here left early, to vote. I am not of legal age yet, so I was left here at home with our helper and my sister. When we woke up, everybody seemed to have eaten up the food Lola prepared.. And I was hungry. So, I whipped up a couple of pancakes, and ate breakfast with my younger sister. She loves pancakes, I actually dont know, or get why. But, she can live on pancakes, and pancakes alone. Oh, and soda too. Lol. My sister's a junkie. Hahahaha.

Yeah, so today's election day. It's considered a holiday. Mico's at work. Well, preparing for work, that is. He's too early today :( He'll be there at 12nn, then finish off at 10pm. Man, that's 10 hours, but he has a 2-hour break. But still not worth. :| But its kinda okay, though. He's getting like additional 30% pay. (Yeah, I know holidays were supposed to be like, double pays. But government implemented a 30% addition instead of doubling it. Bummer.) So, he's on his way there now. And Im stuck here again doing nothing.

Gaaah. The heat, yet again is so fcking deadly. I must shower. ~

Sleep early.


Tomorrow is May 10th.
The first ever automated elections to be held in the Philippines.
VOTE WISELY.

I'mma logout early tonight. I dont feel like staying up late. I just hope I get to sleep early. :| Night!~

Mom's Day.

"Being a full-time mother is one of the highest salaried jobs... since the payment is pure love."


Happy Momma's Day to all the moms out theeere! :>

Whew. I wasnt out today, but I havent blogged since this morning. This is unusual. Lol. Anyway. We stayed home for Mother's Day, we actually spent it without bonding. Haha! See, my grandma and my uncles left early for a visit to my grandpa at the cemetery. I know its mother's day, not father's day. Haha. They visited him there because May 8th was my grandparents' wedding anniversary. So, yeah. They visited him :) Which left my sis, my mom and me here at home. Oh! There was bonding. A bit of bonding. This afternoon, since the weather was dehydrating, my sister decided to have her kiddie pool inflated and filled with cold water. She swam for about 3 or 4 hours. My mom joined her, I was the photographer. Hahaha. I didnt really like swimming there..... I felt so huge in that pool. :| Anyway, that was the only bonding that happened here today. We spent most of the day apart from each other. Mom was in the living room, playing her computer game. My sister was in my grandma's room, watching TV and playing with her dolls, while I was here in the same room I am right now, editing and chatting with friends. Today felt kinda awkward, since this was the first Mother's day we spent at home. Usually, the family goes out to lunch, or dinner. Yeah, we usually bond on occasions like this. Unlike today. :| Oh, well. Things change, and we just have to accept them.

So, this morning I woke up a bit late. Around 11am, I think. Because I had a hard time sleeping again last night. I was up until it was about 4am already, then I suddenly fell asleep, still not knowing how. :| Lol. When I woke up, Lola, Tito Ryan and Tito Jay were about to leave already. I ate the leftover fried rice from breakfast, whipped up a cup of hot chocolate milk, and ate until they left. I consider that brunch already, because it was almost noon. So, I didnt have lunch at noon, I ate at around 4pm already. I didnt do much today, but I managed to do one vector photo - I used Patsy as my subject ;) Then I also finished one sketch, too. But I'm too lazy to upload tonight. So, I think maybe tomorrow, you'll have a glimpse on what I did :D I made butter toast just about 15 minutes before dinner was ready. Which again, delayed my meal. (And I didnt like what we were having.... So I kinda did it on purpose >:P) About 30 minutes after we ate all the butter toast I made, Lola came home. They went to Greenhills, and Shangrila. They had pasalubong! Lol. They got me a cute Theodore chipmunk shirt. :3 They knew I wanted one. :DD They also brought home scrumptious Suman from Tia Paring's. Maaaan. That stuff was gooood. =P~ So, right away, I ate dinner. I had one of those canned Vienna Sausages. After eating, I grabbed one of those sumans right away. :> Same as before, it was good. Reaaaal good :-bd

Hmmm. I'm thinking of putting music to some of my sites, for a less boring experience with my creations. Lol. I'm currently browsing through Streampad.com, since I've seen many people use this.

* Click. Type. Click. Scroll. Click.....

OKAY, I have customized the player. But how on earth am I gonna put the songs?

* Reading. Click. Scroll....

I think I will need to access it through AIM..... There I have an account on AIM already =)) Stupid Streampad. Ughhh. I'm about to give up on this. It takes too long. :|

Anyway. I had a pretty productive day today, and I didnt sleep in. Lol. Yay meeee! Be back later, I guess. I will be working on my sites first. ~

Vector. I wanna learn so bad.

I am a big fan of Adobe. I use Photoshop and Illustrator a lot. Over the summer, I learned Photo Manipulating, adding Text Effects, and making Doodles. But today I tried out something I wanted to for a very long time already, but I didnt have the guts to. Lol. I tried vectorizing my photo :D

<--Here's the original one and here's the vector. -->
I still suck at it though. Look, there's still more to put, they dont look exactly alike yet. But there's still more time. :) And for a beginner, I guess this isnt so bad. :D I made up my To Do list for tomorrow, so I wont be bummed all day :)

  • If I am awake by 5am again, I will cook pancakes for breakfast.
  • Walk around the house for about 30 minutes to an hour. (Doctor advised me to walk. I need to regain balance, she said. But I cant go out, so Imma do it in the house.)
  • Work on my typographies. (REAL typos, not the ones posted on Tumblr by people. I dont even know what gave them the idea that those things were called typographies. Obviously, they dont know art. XDD)
  • Practice portrait sketching. (For UP, and for my 365 as well.)
  • Practice more vector art on Adobe Illustrator - Focus on the details.

Here. So, my whole day is planned on for art itself, and for my betterment. HAHAHAHA. I'm thinking of doing a black and white vector first, then onto the bright contrasting colored ones. Wish me luck on that, hahaha.

Its May 9th. Second Sunday of the Month. HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL MOMMAS!!

Mico must be on his way home now. I think Im gonna let my laptop rest, since Im feeling it overheat again, and that cant be good news. Haha. ~
