ichibutt: a random sketch & some thoughts

This is a sketch I did about a two months back.

This whole idea of studying fulltime that I am playing around with is so I can find time to do this sort of things: like sketching, illustrating, web-designing, reading, photographing etc.

The manufacturing line is one big B.O.R.E. to me. No offense to those fine ppl who find their passion in it. Hey, I worked there for almost 4 years now but its just not for me.

Besides, I am not saying I am going to somewhere where I will earn tons of money, take it easy and be cool. I am just saying I wanna go to somewhere I don't mind doing stuff for 24/7 and feel satisfied. You know? Satisfaction? Happiness? I don't and I certainly wanna find out.

Just moments ago, I was doodling on paper and pc... I felt time just stopped. My mind was totally focused and anything else was simply blocked out. It was a good feeling and I liked it. Now, I want to find out why I like it and how I can get more of it.

Smell Of Rain

Thats the name of a local independent mandarin movie production. The lead actor is one of my classmates from MDIS. Donch really know much about this classmate of mine but I am all for indie films without Recycled Actors/Director such as lim kay tong* or whatever shit face that we see all the time. The trailer looks quite well edited.

(*I donch have a thing against lim kay tong. His name just popped first into my mind. That's all.)

Even before I left HP, I had already been thinking of studying full time. Now, it is really decided.

Leaving HP for STM was because it was to keep my brain from nwahing/rotting and it was nearer to home and therefore less tired/lathagic. However, it was not to be the case.

Now. Am I to continue with Mass Communications or Communication(Graphic) Design?

MASS COMM
Pro:
1) It is a degree.
Con:
2) It has bunch of other boring stuff like journalism which I am not interested.

GRAPHIC DESIGN
Pro:
1) It will be probably more fun.
Con:
2) It is only a diploma.

This is the mostest toughest decision I have ever had to make! I wrong step and I may find myself turning tricks in Tokyo!

ichibutt: ME!
