I drew this on the bus ride home just now. It isn't perfect, and it is hardly close to what I had in mind. But it did its trick so it will do. I am rather happy with how the rope worked out though I really need some brushing up on the water ripple effect that I am trying to achieve. The body doesn't look like she is trying to balance herself onto that crackling wood pole. Not obvious enough. But I don't know how else to improve it so I shall stop giving myself a hard time.
I often sketch things like the above to convey what I feel at that moment. I sometimes feel in imagery instead of word because words can only express so much. I wanted to draw another person holding onto the rope, but that boat was sailing away. I wanted to add a paper ship in front of where the body was facing but I drew the body too big to show off the size of the paper ship. I hope you get what I mean, because only then you know what I am feeling currently. Yeah, I know it sounds a little mad to ask someone to grasp my visual emotions but well, if you want to put a little more effort to know me on a deeper level, the door is there.
Anyway, cacao.

There will be no stress they said
I am so excited about this week. Because the musical rehearsal is back on, things are picking up with school, and Obama openly support gay marriage. In short, I'm busy again and that is always good because I like to see every single minute of my time being fully utilized. I hate wasting time. As much as I hate wasting food. Alicia + Food, rocking since 1995. Brought the loaned out camera from school to musical rehearsal today. Had a lot of fun taking weird photos and Safiy constantly posing for my camera even when it is off. Crazy guy who can't dance. >:) Took a bunch of unnecessary photos too. Quite funny. :D I uploaded all of them with the promised captions. I rarely bother to do so. I fabulously drew this with only my left hand. My hand muscles are surprisingly cooperating this time. I usually produce rubbish when I do shit with my left hand. I tried to be humble and stuff but after I'm done, I stood back and looked through every detail to try and add on. But I didn't do anything other than appreciate my fucking talents. Boy am I one big wonder. Learnt how to use Illustrator this week to produce actual and acceptable work. I'm rather pleased with how I'm doing. I think I can really create a simple work by now. And I really like typography. If only I'm not so late to use my brain and move my fingers to get to work. But fuck it, I'm lazy, and I like it. Been texting Sam, Ying Hui and Keh Jun this past week to make me feel a little sane. Boy I can only imagine my phone bill... Hope I don't die of over usage... Honestly, if I don't text them, I will die of lack of laughter or something. Like Rachel Berry needs applause to live, I just need laughter. It's important to me. It is my favourite sound. My godmum's birthday was on Monday. Had the biggest meal since forever that night. There was so much food. There was even a chocolate cake. My heart could not take that amount of seduction. Food turns me on. I made a list of people to meet up during the June Holidays. Right now, at this rate, 5 of 14 days are booked. I have assignments due after the holidays too. But I'm just happy because I know I would be pretty booked. My whole time concept, it's golden. Photography is tough and I don't like that. I mean, I just want the photo to be clear. I don't need fucking rule of third or aperture to set my photos in that manner. It's exhausting... And I have to travel. :( Don't get me wrong, I don't mind that. It just cost A LOT more to go from one place to another now. Stupid adult fare. Fucking rip off. Oh I must wake up early to catch some morning light. Some au naturel gotta work or else people will be looking at a very unhappy and crappy Alicia tomorrow. DO NOT RAIN PLEASE.

One life out
I managed to finish the entire season one of Episodes and every episode of Happily Divorced along with Hairspray (1988) and Paprika and We Need To Talk About Kevin in the last five days. Oh I have got my weekly ANTM fix. And I still have time to finish two drawings. Though I have to say I miscalculated the proportions of the second one. She has very small eyes to begin with. My 0.5mm pen was too much. :( I am rushing to finish what I have left off for months. Stupid urge to download all sorts of movie when I was still working. What was that all about? Anyway, I have the entire house to myself yesterday, and I did absolutely nothing other than watching shows and movies. And in the night, my godmum called to get me to travel to West Mall and have dinner with her. My sister was home by then but she was going out later on anyway. So when she asked what's up with the phone, I turned to her with my excited face shouting, "Ma asked me out!" I would say my life is pathetic at this point in time. :) I go about researching useless facts the past few days. Mainly about Titanic and TV shows ratings. I would talk to people randomly about it. But I would either sound annoying, trying to sound smart or the people I am talking to simply doesn't care. Oh I share the same birthday as Courteney Cox's daughter. I categories that as "Exciting News". I am so sick of people complaining everywhere about how they wish school don't exist and their project work can disappear on its own. I mean, you fucking chose the path you're on, suck it up, do your homework and get off the internet. I am just this close to unfollowing and unfriending all the JC people on my networks. You knew how tough JC could be, you decide to choose it anyway, and now you complain. Newsflash people, nobody cares how much you regret. Some kids don't even have education, cause you know what they have? They have HIV and Malaria. I went a little overboard over there but get that shit in people.

Die crazy in love
Yesterday was Valentine's Day and I like to assume it was just another day but I shall not this year. Cause Valentine's Day is fucking important to me and I love how I used to have to go to school and have cute cards and such from my friends to make me feel like I am important and mean something to them and it's not just me who feels that way.Okay, my rant is over. I can count on my hand how many friends sent me a note cause they insist that Valentine's Day is also International Friendship Day and it should be to let Valentine-less people feel better about this "holiday". Okay, so my rant is not over. RAWR. Sue me. I love Valentine's Day because it's so cheesy and gross and chick-flick, and you guys know I love fucking chick-flicks. I love the cheesy shits cause it makes me this bit hopeful. Just sayin'. I like looking at the 9 out of 10 customers lining up with their bouquet of ready-made bouquet who are guys (I swear only one lady was in the queue, love that feminist too). But then I never felt more alone. So I went back to sketching, it's what I love to do. Do I need to post all of my "artwork"? Cause they are all in my instagram and I am just too lazy to multi-post. Maybe I might publish the book after I'm done! No, just kidding. Which publisher would accept a book of sketches? Anyway, I have been sketching a hell lot and I really enjoy my copy-drawing. Cause if I were to draw a person without reference, it would look terrible. I need the material in my face to draw the exact proportions. I tend to make the arms freakishly long and the legs really short when I draw free hand. I am not that talented. :( I went to retrieve the letters last night and got a pleasant surprise in store for me. Two letters from Hui Jun and Sam and they mailed it yesterday and both were fortunately enough to be ready for me on Valentine's. It made a day. I practically mopped around at home watching shows on my laptop. Which by the way, I completed all four seasons of Ugly Betty and I fucking love it. It shall remain one of my top 5 favourite shows of all times along with The Nanny and Modern Family. It is a flawless show. Amazing character development and awesome plot to follow that links from not only episode-to-episode, but also season-to-season (Unlike, ahem, Glee). And I fucking love Detty. I don't care what anybody says, or what anybody thinks, they are flawless. They are made for each other and they practically mold into one over time. They have their fights but they accept each other no matter what. They stay there for each other and never left. Not even slightly. She is there whenever he needs her and vice versa. Oh god, how I wish I can have such a figure in my life. He never give up on her and he depends on her so much he could die. Okay I went a little too far but you get it. I just have so much emotions spilling out for them alright! Applause for the amazing Adele for scooping up so many Grammys in one night. She deserve those fabulous awards dammit. :) Labels: drawing, i'm an artist yes, ugly betty Posted Friday, February 10, 2012 // 9:38 pm
Listening to awesome mashups
I spent the last two friendless day with my only best friend of the moment, my laptop. Thinking about it, I should start giving a name to it. I'm practically treating it as my life partner. Okay that's sounds extremely awkward. Oh well. Yeah, the two photos above are my models for the past two days. I tried really hard to capture the essence of Europeans. But I failed terribly and they all end up too much of... well, Asians. The eyes kill me every single time. I swear, without the face, they look awesome. I was smiling so hard to myself drawing the body structure of the second photo until I screwed up the face. The face really resemble nothing of the model. I was so upset with it that I actually used correction tape to undo my mistake. But at least it eventually looked like a decent model with features at the right proportion and not Jay Leno's chin with woman's features all the way up to her forehead. So I regret nothing. Plus, as I draw, I learn. I shall remind myself to use a pencil to sketch the face before using a pen all the way. Yeah, I like to be fearless and draw with pen cause I have such thick skin to think I can draw that flawlessly. Like a boss. >:) Well, another rant today, cause I can. I learnt from following FashionOfGlee on Tumblr that F21 released a line of Glee shirts and pullovers. They have Finn, Rachel, Kurt and Brittany's faces on individual shirts and yet no Blaine. They actually put "Courage" accompanying Kurt's. I mean, Blaine gave Kurt courage, and love, of course, but they should have another shirt that well, at least have Blaine's face on it. Hello? Darren Criss is voted the 3rd most sexy man alive, they gotta have his sexy face on a fucking shirt by now. Kurt's word should be like, I don't know, "Unicorn"? And neither does the Glee Club Top have Blaine. Or Mike. They gotta have Mike no? He is in it for three seasons and no Mike Chang. This is just, preposterous. ARGH! And argh! My period is here. That has no link but it just came out along with my anger of the day. On the bright side, I met up with my homies after about two weeks plus. Meeting up will be so tough now. Really happy to see them today. They discuss about their orientation stories and some were weird but most were funny. We had lunch/dinner and had this tiny photo session in the restaurant after food and it was so fun looking at the waitresses give us the look while we look goofy posing to the camera. It was really golden moments. I don't know, I really look forward to more. I shall draw more to keep myself away from blogshops and the urges to buy things, alone or not.

It's fine to keep my feets on the ground once in a while only I am very very free-spirited. And that saves trouble if anyone worries that I might go mental one day. I won't cause I would be stubborn to keep myself commitment-free and everything. But I do want to wear that gown one day. Just, wait a pretty long while?I love to keep myself happy. By drawing random portraits, by writing senseless dark novels, by acting as someone I'm completely not. That's just how I express my feelings. If I do any of those things, I'm one happy girl. OH! And eating too. Usually my cravings. As long as I'm acting, especially. I ain't even mad if my face isn't in the scene half the time, but I can't deny the fact that I'm constantly tired for any after-school activities. But that's main reason is cause I skip lunch. The canteen food is bad. Complaining isn't the job for the actors. The director's the boss on set. What you gonna do bout that? I really like to act with my dearest juniors. Kabir, Shannen, Joyce, Janice, Abigail, Chong Ray. Gawsh they are so cute. Like, argh! I just want to give them teddy bear hugs. :D Especially Janice, she lets me grope her. >:)Labels: doodling, drama, drawing, i'm an artist yes, i'm the swan queen Posted Saturday, January 29, 2011 // 5:36 pm
Show me how you Burlesque I so enjoy writing Ryan his birthday card. Probably the best I've written cause 80% of the entire thing, I am talking about how awesome and cool I am. Which he agree, save your judgements, ya! CCA open house was a lot of fun to do. Chong Ray is so cute I had to terrorise him to the extent that even his friends started calling him RAY RAY. It's hilarious and he is so embarassed. Aw, hot damn. There's this whole lot of ten girls wanting to join Drama, they are all from 1C1. I love that class from today onwards. Hopefully they don't join Netball, even if I hate them for not joining Drama anymore, I don't want them to suffer under the sun and miss lessons for tournaments. It's torture, to me. And sad enough, Kenny Chau didn't come to school that day. Elavaanil and I were mourning over it. How could he EVER let us down like that?! I bet all CCAs wants to screw him if he were to join ANY. All of a sudden, Drama is such a peaceful CCA. All the other Aesthetic CCAs were dissing each and other CCAs. We tried not to disclose any names of any CCAs and sure enough, other CCA hardly had anything to say about Drama. We are scandal-free like that. Dance hardly had anyone joining and it's kinda obvious. I mean, which instructor in the right mind would scream at the members right before the eyes of the yet-to-be-newcomers. They would be scared away and neglected just sitting by the side watching whatever's going on. Petrina and I had our Chewy Junior date after Dance on Friday and that poor girl didn't have any cream in her puff. That came off really wrong but you get it. KOI is a very distracting distraction. Like BAM, distracting. Have beeen doodling a lot of profile of human portraits. I like drawing those particularly, human's expression is always the most intriguing. Nerd day. SO much fun. I look so 60s. Like those really blur and outcasted students. Oh my god, staring at the photo just made me realised how funny I look and why everybody kept laughing at me. It's amazing. ![]() I opted for a low ponytail eventually.
I drew this on 26 Jan 2011 with only a black pen, which is running outta ink. Soon. But isn't the panda just adorable? :D But truth is that panda don't climb bamboo shoots. Not even baby pandas. So I fail at that aspect. But still so ever proud of myself. Eden is a moron for vandalising my book and ruining Sam's book. Like totally ruined. Like rape-ruined. -shakes head- WHY? WHY?! WHY BABY BABAYE?! I love the soundtrack of Burlesque. Favourites are Show Me How You Burlesque and You Haven't Seen The Last Of Me. Best among the best. :D Han Jun had his phone confiscated for calling Jacintha's phone. But it's purely his luck cause he took the phone so high up that even blind people are able to spot in a heartbeat. Really!? Easy A is kinda boring. But Emma Stone is really good. And funny too. Pretty at the same time. Her acting is effortlessly natural. That's all that I can describe. My vocabulary is horrendous. Golly. But the plot is mediocre. Welcome to the Rileys has such a bad ending. Even though Kristen Stewart is ten times cooler with black shadow around her eye. But not half as bad as Taylor Momsen's. Taylor's is just opaque. Kristen's is more transparent-translucent. And Melissa Leo and James Gandolfini definitely made her look BAD. This is a very character driven movie, and it focus on the emotions more than the plot. So Kristen Stewart completely sucked the entire movie. Her scenes are just mmm. I think it's bad directing now though... Hmm... Never mind.
