Vector Abstracts (deviantart)

Wednesday, December 24, 2008

I found it, I finally did! T.T After years of fiddling foolishly on photoshop and designing scraps otherwise known to the world as blogskins and photo-manipulations. I think I've finally found my artistic passion; making vector abstracts.

Yup, you heard me right. Designing vector abstracts is, as of now, my topmost priority. Who cares if your mother is nagging away about your untouched holiday assignments, who cares if your dad sighs away in frustration and who cares if your holidays are about to end without a single doodle on your history assignments. As I've always, very very wisely, told my friends - Life is about making the necessary adjustments, so that you can enjoy every aspect of it. "And discarding homework for designs on photoshop is a very wise thing to do," Confucius would say if he was still alive. "Go on, child, live your dream!"

99.9% of the population would most probably disagree (that 0.1% is me of course), but hey...I might just consider being a digital artist as my third career choice. (I still wanna be a math teacher, ya know!)

ANNNNND....my dad is still grumbling away about not being able to make money with my digital artworks. "It's not about the money, man, it's all about the spirit and the passion!"

I don't think the Singapore finance minister would say the same.

Fallen Angel (deviantart)

Monday, December 22, 2008

Check out my latest photo-manipulation! xD Heavily inspired by my favorite manga, Skip Beat! of course.

After a few months of hiatus from deviantart, I'd say, making that photo manipulation was like getting hit by a brick. Wham! Inspiration comes flying in. In case you're wondering, the theme 'Fallen Angel' came from the plot of Fuwa Shou's music video whereby Kyouko Mogami (the female protagonist) stars as a beautiful angel who fell into the deep abyss of insanity after slaying the devil. My god, she looked so stunning that I absolutely had to make something of it!

As of now, I'm experimenting with my beloved photoshop, trying to learn a few new skills here and there. So yup, I will be back with an entirely new layout in a few...hours, days? Hmm...

I was speaking to my friends the other day about a local Japanese man who was trying to get petitions to legalize the marriage of anime characters. My friends, being sane as they were, was absolutely aghast. I was...too.

But now, thinking back, I wasn't sure if I could still say the same. Marrying Tsuruga Ren and being whisked off to his beautiful apartment in Tokyo would seem like an otherwise brilliant plan right now.

I have nothing to blog about today (other than getting a hair cut and playing mahjong), my life has been rather boring so I'll just do Mag's tag thingy.

Q: If you had 3 wishes, what will that be?

1) Migrate to Japan
2) Marry a Japanese
3) Enroll in Tokyo University

Q: Did you ever think to yourself and wonder if you're really real?

You mean if I'm actually dead but think I'm alive? Yeah, all the time.

Q: Are you afraid of what lies ahead of you?

Yes, it's not just about coping with my studies but also being with my friends in the same class next year. =(

Q: Would you change yourself for the person you love?

Yes.

Q: Do you believe in Love?

Yeah, look at my mom and dad. =.=" If it's not love, I don't know what it is!

Q: How long do you intend to wait for someone you really love?

I don't. I just call him my shining creature of light (a.k.a SCOL) and be blinded by his beauty! mauahahaah.

Q: Is there anything that made you unhappy these days?

Yes? I've been emo-ing for days now. (writes emo poems)

Q: Do you get butterflies in your stomach whenever you're around the guy/girl you like?

No, because I'd run away before I reach 10 meters of my SCOL.

YES.

Q: Who are currently most important people to you?

They know it themselves. =D

Q: Have you ever wanted someone but you knew you couldn't?

SCOL. SCOL. SCOL. And there's Tsuruga Ren, Eiri Yuki and Kanda Yuu because they're made of pen and pixels.

Do I look like I'm happy with my life?

Yes, obviously.

Q: What type of friends do you like?

Friends who are understanding and able to take all my crap. I'm a terrible person, hard to mix with. My friends are gems and diamonds, therefore. =D

Q: Do you often wish there was something you could change?

You mean like my nationality? YES. I was definitely born a Jap, don't know how I ended up in Singapore.

Q: Which is your favourite body part of the opposite gender?

The eyes.

Q: If your lover betrayed you, what will be your reaction?

AHAHAHAA! I'd kill him, of course. But not before I sue him and extort some money.
