The Day I Made Peace

With Vectors. Is truly a day to be celebrated.

For a long time now, I have been insisting on being such a n00b and using nothing but Photoshop. Not out of curiosity, but out of pressure from someone who thinks he knows my true potential kept pushing me to complete a mockup of thetikoyplate’s layout using nothing but IllusTRAITOR. So I did. The Tikoy created the door so people would walk in them and say “the door is good”, and it was done.

Comelec

This fkin blows. I went to the comelec to register in this barangay/city. It really just pissed me off because first: they are located in a frikin FIRE STATION, second: they do not adhere to SCHEDULE, third: they do not keep their WORD, fourth:they are not organized AT ALL.

I could go on and on about how much the national government suxx0rs, but i’m afraid i’d just run out of space.

Completing the tikoy plate layout is delayed for a few more days.. so sad.. maybe i’d just upload a temporary layout, i just rly rly wanna upload the first few comics.



Under Construction

Someone was kind enough to buy me a domain, so i had to find a webhost asap to take advantage of having my own address. Chibi.nu agreed to host it. My very own webcomic. I know, i know, its a long overdue project but you know me… the Queen of Procrastinators. I have a couple of drawings in line oredi and i can’t wait til The Tikoy Plate goes live. Right now all you’ll get would be small preview of what you might find there once it goes live. Under Construction would be smiling at you when you go there now but in a few days (hopefully this weekend) i should have uploaded the first strip. I hope I come up with a pretty good layout. The logo for the plate, I just finished yesterday. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Anyway, after a long wait, I finally gathered enough balls to watch Transformers. I have been avoiding it since its release for the imminent fear of being disappointed.Suffice to say, the movie wasn’t so bad. The execution of the “transforming” was something to look at. The leading lady was nothing but eye candy. The robots had attitude. It wasn’t a total loss if it weren’t for a few cheesy scenes.

In the spirit of robots and machines, I have agreed to fix two computers today. I wasn’t quite sure about this one’s problem save for the fact that it won’t even turn on before i got here. Well, duh it’s fixed now, or do I have to spell it out for you? The other computer is a toshiba laptop though.. I’m not quite sure about that one either but, I’m gonna be pretty bummed fixing it tomorrow. There’s just too many godam (low quality high resolution) pictures in that stupid machine! I wish there was someone out there who could fix people’s heads. Cure them of moron-gitis and assholitis. You borrow your sister’s laptop.. for six long months.. return it to her broken.. and then tell her she doesn’t deserve to own it if she can’t fix it? Now.. what do i call these… I forgot but as soon as I think of a really nasty term.. I’d probably have a name for people like that. For the mean time, let’s just call them big brothers.

Let the good times roll~



Responsible Use of Words

Its amazing how much words can hurt people. All this time I’ve been vocal about my feelings towards other people not knowing the weight of my words on their souls. I said a lot of horrible things(aside from doing them) . I never really considered how other people would react to what I say.

I’m sorry. If i seem harsh at times. I’m sorry for blurting out the obvious. I’m sorry for being outspoken. I’m not sorry for having an opinion. I’m just sorry that I had to say it out loud enough for people to hear them and be affected by it in some way.

I am not as strong as I pretend to be. I have to be harsh so people won’t bully me. I have to be meaner than usual so no one would bother me.  It doesn’t make me unbreakable. It only makes me manageable.

Like most people, I need to learn the responsible use of words. No. Not lying. Not that. But refraining from saying something, anything when the situation doesn’t really need it.

It’s not lying, its damage control.



My uber boring weekend

Saturday started like any other boring saturday with a relative’s birthday. Food on the table. Lot’s of it. People from all over the country who are in some way related to us.

Went off with a cousin for the weekend, in an attempt to erase the faint traces of boringitis. Which helped cause i never would have gone to rockwell alone. I’m allergic to high end shit.. Too ex… Can cheap?

National Bookstore. It was the last place i thought i’d ever get cheap ass drawing shit. I bought two sketchpads, a felt tip pen a stupid eraser i probably won’t need (cause erasers are for those who make mistakes…) and a metallic gold pen(don’t ask why).

For some odd reason i didn’t spend as much as i normally have on my other investments. And i really don’t mind spending on things like those too. But fact remains, i saved a lot of cash. Thank the god of the philipine peso.

To end the uber boring saturday, we ate out at some shitty restaurant called “Sakae Sushi”. Shitty place that claimed to serve the best sushi. Sure they do. But they’re not consistent. The only good sushi they had there were the ones NOT on the conveyor belt. Which totally sux cause we ordered all you can eat from the stupid conveyor belt which MAGICALLY doesn’t really have ANYTHING good on it. (I wonder if their chef suddenly got sick or died of malaria)

It was a good thing i ate a lot of ice cream in the morning. Kinda negates the feeling of emptiness dinner left me with.

Nightfall. And who thought i would have fallen asleep oredi. Stupid disney princess puzzle kept us up. But somehow, somwehre in the middle of it, i fell asleep.

Sunday. Finally managed to finish the puzzle. Then went off to james’ place. Now this place is.. amazing. Just what i would’ve imagnied myself to be living in when i grow old. A nice big house. Lots of rooms. Nice BIG kitchen. And lots of food.

They kept themselves busy with the wonderful toy, the nintendo wii, or what i call, a gift from the gods.  Trauma Center. Finally, a game made for dorktors like them. although i must say, it doesn’t really take a doctor to enjoy this. ITs actually FUN.

I just noticed. This place is fun. Nothing but fun. Food. Games. Its like my own little private party with a few friends.

Decided. Wii > PS3.

And so my uber boring weekend draws closer to an end. I must say. I need more boring weekends. Mall isnt so bad. Going out isn’t so bad. But i do miss the internet. (what a dork)



Where to now?

been busy lately can’t find time to post good shit lately. someone was kind enough to buy www.thetikoyplate.com for me, now all i need is a host and my comic would now have a home.

now if i could only stay sane enough to actually draw and write  what’s on my mind. it’s kinda hard for me to do that, not just now, but ever. its hard to find inspiration in a world full of lies. its hard to be who you want to be. the need to be liked is always there. the fear to be rejected, stronger than ever. what if they don’t like me? what if they totally hate me? why do i care so much?

most ppl would say i shouldn’t. every feel good film, i saw tells me to follow my heart. but what if its just too difficult to trust your heart? what if its just waaaaaaay to hard to do when you no longer believe in you. the fact that no one else does either, doesn’t help much.

what then?
