Summer hol summary, I suppose

Well... what an absence. Sorry for the long pause .-.;
But gosh, got quite a bit done in the holidays!

- went to Temburong, did some highland hiking.
- went to Philippines... oh so interesting :'D
- begun painting work.
- watched Usagi Drop anime. (Really good, in all honesty)
- planning new art projects.

Amongst other stuff I can't remember form 8 weeks ago. :\

I took photos from my phone on the 2 trips, but seem to have lost the USB connector again.

Once I find it, I'll post them up ♥

Also. Today was 3rd day back at a new year of school~
6th form is now a year away!
There's this feeling... something like supreme excitement (2-3yrs of school left!), and supreme worry (A-level exams, etc).
But its more of something along the lines of nervous excitement.. you get that feeling?
Before that, got exams for this year to pass first.

So now my work schedule is pumped up some notches already.
Expect longer blog delays. (Very sorry)
But try to expect more art... I'm currently in the middle of a very cute painting (!!!). Will get to it on Friday, and hope to finish it by Sunday, perhaps scan and post it up too.
Also making a separate website to archive my new upcoming artwork. (Still in progress.)

I've pledged to get a lot more done! This past while I've been pressured, but its all loosened up already, and homework is in good timing. Hope to keep this up for the rest of the year.

~ Current art projects planned/in progress ~

- Cute painting (~10% complete)

- Sketch/drawing (~45 complete)

- Cute scenario picture thing (~95% complete)

- Mini comic strip #1 (PLANNED)

Summer hols soon + Puffy new release!

2 more days this week, 5 more next week, and summer holidays for me begin! :D !

School year felt relatively short. GCSEs come faster than you'd think ):

I'm putting aside my other projects for now and Imma start a new one.

Its gonna be a sort of animation. Just asked pap to find and buy me a good enough program for my Macbook.

I'm thinking of a mini story, say, 3-5mins long, and based as sort of a silent film. (They're very interesting! (: )

Other than that,

went to try some archery last Sunday.

It's really fun!!

It kinda strains your upper arms, but it's worth it, if you get good shots and put in effort.

Mine were so-so, I suppose...

I plan to go there each weekend to train myself. I thin I found a new favourite sport.

Maybe I'll post some photos of the experience next time I go. (To fellow Bruneians, if you'd like the address, just email me [see side panel!] and I'll give it to you!)

Also!

If anybody happens to be a Puffy (AmiYumi) fan, then I've got some news for you!

They're gonna sing the theme song to the upcoming anime series 'Usagi Drop' called 'Sweet Drops'!!

I read an English ver. of the anime a friend of mine bought me a while ago, and it's very sweet!

It was really surprising to read about that the other day. Can't wait!

A short plot on the story; it's about a guy named Daikichi who finds this girl named Rin (very mysterious) and ends up having to look after her, as if a sort of guardian. (It's a sort of mellow hearty drama/slice of life story.)

Apparently, the anime's set to release on 8th of July (my last day of school!), with a live-action film on 20th August.

Check back for the latest!

Gotta go pee o':

ただいま-

1984 review some other time. Just ain't got the heart to do it right now =\

This week's been... annoying; tests galore, homework + revision pressure, hospital visits, and heard that an old friend of mine visited from overseas. But never got any call from her. And then she left. :s

It's painful to slowly lose friends like that. Especially if you've known them for a long time :s

But something a bit different; look at the critter below I found at school last week!

If you can't see, then just squint hard.

As my last year English teacher always said~

Also!

I'm drawing a special sort of picture project in my freetime! :D

It's for a good friend of mine, but anyone can see it.~

Sneak peek(?) below:

Plan to finish it by this weekend. It's gonna get many different parts. c:

Now, off to take on a mission.

Toodles~

iPhoto can make pics look creepy :D

Well, now that its smaller here, it doesn't seem as much. :P

Felt like mangling a random photo from my Macbook with iPhoto for... fun :3

'Retouch' did all the magic here~ ✭

Also to be posted up sometime!:

- first mini comic with the star sign characters. (Maybe more; if so, will come bundled in a .rar file)

- a 'cute'-style tile picture (digital). Can be used for tiled wallpaper (mini pics on it will repeat, hopefully without probs).

Do check back for these, and maybe others if lucky ♪
