Hiatus

26 12 2008

Although I’ve only just barely started, it seems my life is too filled with other things which I am unable to give up. And so sadly, I will be going on a hiatus.

I think in the end, I am unable to focus on the process when under pressure. This time its only pressure from myself, and this will obviously cripple me if I intend to adopt drawing/animation as my career. It’s a flaw I know I must overcome; I need to learn how to continue having passion in something despite being pressured.

Until then, I will only be dropping random works here which I think are worthy of the world wide web.

Anime Festival Asia 2008 starts tomorrow!

Still considering if I should go on both days, they have quite a few sections this time including an “Artist’s Alley”, should be an eye-opener ^^

Creative, a company that I’ve been very loyal to regarding mp3 players because of their amazing sound quality, has recently released its new product: Zen Moo.

I had high hopes for this growing company from my country, thinking that it might one day beat Apple in this industry.

zenmooEnough said.

Started playing StepMania recently, and this new work is somewhat inspired by the rhythm game.

One Month Hiatus

16 11 2008

Wow. It’s been a month.

Much has happened over the past month, and obviously I haven’t been updating.

But this past month has been a really fulfilling month for me, because I’ve been involved in many activities, many involving design, creation, and lots of hard work, and leadership.

I spent about two weeks planning a school event, which drew a surprising 200 guests.

i guess my peers enjoyed the event xD

It was a simple steamboat buffet dinner held within school compounds, which we decided to give a pirate theme (steamBOAT harhar). I came up with this crazy idea to build a makeshift ship’s bow to be used as the stage, and thanks to my amazing team, we actually got it done, even with an anchor, wheel, and sail, which was actually our publicity banner; this time, 6×4metres big. Didn’t design the banner this time though:/

eotss

we had one week. so dont laugh ><

doubles as a stage

the wheel can actually spin, but i think we could have done a better job with it

After the event, I took a break from everything, and didn’t really use my computer much besides for catching up with some anime and watching Hana Yori Dango (it’s a great show) which i told myself i had to watch soon.

Was also tasked to design two shirts, one for my upcoming trip to a school in rural Shanghai for community work, and one for my ultimate frisbee team. Both designs which I am too embarrassed to show.

yea, so it’s been a hell of a month.

gonna get my graphic tablet hopefully by this week ><
