It’s been quite a rough start of the year… Health problems, career crossroads, the usual familial drama.

This question hasn’t resonated with me any louder than it did when I crossed the first quarter of my life roughly a month ago - with a sizzle rather than a bang my younger self would have expected.

I’m sure I have it better than most and even having the luxury of asking the question is a blessing in itself.

But when you’re walking a road less travelled, if you’re trying to be different - you can’t help but ask whether you’re a train speeding along the right but rather unconventional track… or if you’re so off-track that you run out of steam.

I’m sure a phase is all it is and I may likely just be passing along a long dark tunnel… I just hope it ends soon.

And no, if you’re reading this you’re not alone. And you’re okay. Were okay. We shall endure, and if you ever begin to ask this question again one morning or one tiring afternoon at your desk or while sipping that hot cup of tea after a long day… having the chance to ask this question - means you’re well on your way.

"I choose him.”

Just a quickie sketch while watching the latest Woody Allen film.

Been a while… and since my tablet is still out of the woods, I’m borrowing my boyfriend’s for the time being.

I forgot a bit about how therapeutic art can be and determined that maybe I should (hold my bf’s tablet hostage and) draw more - before all the stress make me burst.

My pen tablet has been acting up lately and just so happens when I have free time.

Seriously considering upgrading to a Cintiq.

Adobo Festival of Ideas (2015) Driving the Creative Economy

Aside from my first Adobo event, it was also my first time in Resorts World (I know, I dont get out much). I must say the opportunity to come here was very timely. Learned so much of course and most importantly enjoyed all of the speakers’ topics. Many of them debunked my own theories about current trends that I felt (too hipster, or too “milennial”) to get into.

So happy because I finally got to see one of Dan Matutina’s talks especially. And the exclusive (naks!) footage from Alden (half of the #AlDub duo) did help peak my interest too (wink!).

Also, the whole #WorkLifeBalance thing was also validated by practical advice from one of my indie local comic heroes that I didn’t even know belonged to the advertising circle (as a day job). Kinda gave me an insight about my career choices (turns out I can pull a Bruce Wayne-Batman on that too).

Definitely looking forward to next year’s! Kudos #AdoboMagazine !

Haven’t updated my blog in a while... I’ve been cooking some real serious career-changing stuff lately (no, I haven’t succumbed to cannibalism yet).

Anyways, Holloween 2015 is almost upon us you guys! Hope you’re cooking up some ideas how to celebrate yours too!
