The following photos I did this month of April...



something i made out of boredom haha! i was just playing around when i finally ended up with this image. :D


"hahaha!" this is what i am thinking with this art....i was so tired drawing loops ( i was practicing since I'm a newbie with the gadget) with the digital tablet that i decided to take a break...i used the mouse of course since i wasn't used with the tablet yet.^^ just wanted to unwind from the monotonous loops i've been making hehe

my inspirations: it started when i was thinking about my Belgian friends and a friend of mine who's in Quebec...i dunno..don't ask me. it's not my fault they just popped inside my head...well...these friends of mine knows French aaanndd...frankly speaking, i used to be a French addict (hehe..yah) everything French would mesmerize me..their culture, architecture and language enthrall me. who wouldn't right?.....anyways, that was way back in high school...i still love french now but i'm not as addicted to it as before :D

another thing that really inspired me to do his art will leave you smiling or laughing(?) whichever it is, believe it or not this is what: (drumrolls) behold Mr. Pringles! (tehehe) i just missed the salty chips that why...isn't it obvious with the hungarian moustache? well maybe not because mr pringles' moustache isn't entirely black but still it reminds me of him.

so that's it! i gotta stop typing now! this is the longest caption i've ever done..tsk...on the second thought, this is not caption anymore! haha

well..so as not to leave you all grumbling after wasting your time reading my long, nonsense blabbering i'll leave you with something to do: (hehe am i too demanding?) ...aside from mr.pringles what else comes to your mind when you see the curly hungarian moustache?
After a new blog layout and a new direction for my blog, today I'm going to post some of my new digital artworks. I know I need more practice with this new addiction of mine so I would really appreciate some comments there. :)



here's my first piece...i did last March. A piece I did for a lot of day (haven't noted it though) This is my first digital art using Paint SAI Tool.

a new beginning


I was planning to make a new blog to start all over again but then I realized that I was somehow attached to this blog already that I decided to stick to it. The following paragraphs were supposed to be posted in that "new blog"

For a long time I've been longing of a place where i can spill out every single thought I've been hiding in the corners of my mind. Some place where i can express my thoughts and insights of everything under the sun. A place where few knows me and judges me and i can say what i want without worrying what others might think. A place I could call a refuge of my own.

Finally this has come to a realization. After several weeks of silence from my latest blog, "fragments of my life" I decided to make another blog. This time it will be for good. I can't say that I'll be blogging every single day but I'll see to it that I'll be keeping this blog up-to-date. 

Blogging is really one of my frustrations. I have created blogs a dozen of times from different known blog sites like Livejournal, Xanga, Blogger and others i have already forgotten. The reason why I love to blog is because as a child I grew up writing in either journals or diaries. Writing my experiences was like leaving a mark in this big world we live in. It is one of my biggest goals - to impart something in this world (something for the better of course). With a bit of wit i intend to pursue this goal.

. . .more photos to post. . .

i'm not in the mood to type long paragraphs today but i still want to post something new today so instead of the usual texts i'll add some photos today...i decided to post some photos of significant moments of our batch that happened last year.

This was taken during our acquaintance party last year. Some of my classmates didn't attend so we weren't complete here.

September 16, 2009 - Our class conducted a seminar with the topic: Green Architecture and our guest speaker was Arch't. Miguel "Mike" Guerrero, a known architect here in the Philippines. It was the most successful seminar ever (as far as we know) and we're really proud of it.

Last September we had a research that required us to gather information and photos on the famous landmarks in city. It was actually a group research but me and some of my closest classmates decided to visit the landmarks together so we can at least enjoy the stroll...the more the merrier, right? (: Some of the landmarks we visited were Sto. Nino shrine, Sto. Nino Church, City Municipal, and Redona Residence...

A picture together before our stroll.:P

Last October, our dearest mentor and adviser, Ms. Almarines had her wedding day. This is the first time we were invited in a teacher's wedding. We volunteered to help ma'am in decorating their reception area and also acted as ushers and usherettes during the event.

good morning, everyone! rise and shine! Today will be a very busy day for me. This morning till afternoon will be our graduation rehearsal. I was actually hoping that i could have two days of rest before grad but then it's necessary that we attend this one or else our clearance won't be signed. Anyways, there's three more days to go before it's graduation day!!! :D
By the way, later this 7 in the evening we'll be having our farewell party. We're lucky that we still have extra money left from the seminar we held last year so we don't have any problem with the money to spend...we're not yet sure where we'll be having our dinner party though but we can decide on that later.
uh-oh I'm gonna be late for the rehearsal!! gotta go, guys (: Have a great day, everyone!

. . a day in my life

this happened on May 17...i was supposed to post this on that day but i got busy so i wasn't able to finish this and ended up as a draft instead...after four days i finally had a chance to get online and finish this...(good thing i have my planner to recall what happened on this day) (:

May 17, 2010

6:00am - my sister woke me up. I slept around 2am so you just can imagine how sleepy I am when I woke up this morning.(-_-).... I want to get more sleep but last night I left a note in the living room telling my family to wake me up at 6 so I could continue printing the feasibility study and have it hard-bounded before 9am so I have no other choice but to get off my bed in a very sleepy state.

8:15am - darn it..i'm planning to leave the house at 8:35 but i'm not yet done with the printing. I only have 20 minutes left! huhu what am i to do?

8:55 - Left the house. sigh... i am so delayed.

9:15 - arrived in downtown and met up with my classmates. It costs P410 to have our FS hard-bounded...

10:30 - me and my classmates went to the school registrar to have our evaluate our grades. good thing i don't have any problems regarding my past grades.(:

1:00 - stayed at our college building. we waited there till three for our scheduled tree planting

3:00 - it's tree planting time! graduating students are required to plant trees in the school campus. we had a lot of fun looking for the best spot to plant our seedlings and digging  holes by using sticks which we found along the way. ..we didn't bring any planting tool with us that's why..so after the planting we were a total mess! by that time, my hair was dripping from sweat  and my shoes were covered with mud. it was tiring but we really don't mind...we  really enjoyed the most out of it and for us that was what mattered. (:

4:30 - i went home to change my clothes. it was during this time when i started my draft of this post....

5:30 - i left to attend mass and our prayer meeting. this the first time attended after being absent for three consecutive meetings due to school works which piled up especially during the submission of our major subject requirements as well as our final exams.

9:00 - watched TV with my family.(:

11:00 - read a novel my aunt gave me last Sunday till i fell asleep.
