Dear Ex-Boyfriend, Stop Blogstalking me. You lost all rights to knowing about my life when you betrayed and cheated on me. If me refusing to answer any of your messages over the last nine months wasn't clear enough, i hope this is. Move on, Leave me Alone.
Was Looking for some Jon Snow Phone backgrounds, and i just wasn’t finding any! So i made some myself.

7 amazing Photoshop extensions and tools for digital artists
Hello!
After a period of silence on the articles’ side of the blog, we are back! And this time with a new great list of PS extensions and tools that designers and painters will love!
1. Colour Constructor
Colour Constructor is a brilliant little program that helps you design colour and values in a very simple way. Especially for painters, this program demonstrates how colours, shadows, and lights of your choice interact on a 3D object.
Colour Constructor is a study and workflow tool that is designed to help you design the colours and values for a painting or image you are making according to a light source and ambient term.
Ahmed Aldoori made a test video of the program and you can watch it here.
2. Coolorus
Coolorus is an amazing colour weel plug-in made for Photoshop.
Coolorus is the right choice for creative people willing to improve their painting workflow. It saves time, and helps you choose better colors thanks to Color Schemes, Gamut Lock and the power of triangle HSV representation.
3. Chameleon Adaptive Palette
Chameleon Adaptive Palette is a flexible - and very pretty - palette panel designed for the love and happiness of concept artists and digital painters.
Chameleon Palette is a single panel that changes according to your needs. Each of the strips provides a different color function, but they all have the same principle. They automatically and intelligently generate ranged colors swatches or palettes based on the one you just selected. From whatever source, canvas included.
4. Prisma Palette
Prisma Palette is a particular Photoshop plug-in that generates different colour palettes for areas in shadow and areas in light.
Prisma Palette generates individual gamut masks for any number of light sources; mapping exact local colours to lit colours within the colour space.
5. Lazy Nezumi
One of the most popular applications used by designers and digital artists, Lazy Nezumi lets you take control of your lines. This powerful Windows app helps artists draw smooth lines with different features and options, such as Position Smoothing, Pressure Processing, Scripting, a set of rulers, and more.
Lazy Nezumi works with Photoshop and many other art programs, 2D and 3D. You can check the list of supported products here.
6. AD Brutus Symmetry
AD Brutus Symmetry is a Photoshop CC panel that helps artists work with almost realtime symmetry.
AD Brutus Symmetry uses Photoshop guides (vertical and horizontal) as Axis for the symmetry, but it’s not limited to guides, it also works with selections and for fastest use we can assign shorcuts to the main functions.
Note though that while Photoshop still doesn’t have any mirror painting tool, other softwares such as Corel Painter, Krita, and CLIP Studio Paint do.
7. BrushBox
There are many Photoshop extensions and panels that help artists organise their brushes in folders, but we’ve found that BrushBox really outshines them all. Though a bit pricey ($15), especially considering that similar products can be found on Gumroad for less or even for free, BrushBox can do everything and more when it comes to managing brushes.
Like with a layer panel, artists can organise brushes and tool presets into groups, colour code them, search through presets by name and type, and much more.
Note that the brush preset panel in the new Photoshop CC 2018, however, has this same management feature.

Hi! What are your tips on learning kanji?
Hi there! My tips are:
Choose the order in which you learn the kanji. You can’t just go around picking random kanji that you think would be useful or look pretty. You can learn kanji in the same order they’re required for the JLPT, or in the order they’re taught in Japan, or in the order they’re taught in your kanji book if you have one.
Learn to recognize radicals. They are like tiny building blocks used to build different kanji. For example the kanji 鏡 looks pretty complicated, right? But if you break it into pieces, you’ll find it consists of the radicals 金, 立, 日 and 儿.
Use mnemonics to help you remember kanji better. For example, to remember the kanji 休, which means ‘to rest’, and consists of the radicals 人 and 木, I imagine a person sitting by the tree to rest.
Practice writing kanji, preferably on a graph paper. Remember the right stroke order and try to make them as clear and pretty as possible.
Learn vocabulary related to the kanji. That way you’ll understand the meaning of the kanji and learn how to read them. Make sentences of the new words you learn.
Use flashcards. You can make them by yourself or use Anki.
Read texts written in Japanese: news, blogs, magazines, books, anything you like.
Don’t give up! Learning kanji can be very confusing, frustrating and tiring, but in the end it’ll be so worth it, trust me!

Hey guys, so I’m nearing the end of my senior year, and it’s been great so far! I accomplished my academic tasks efficiently and didn’t burn myself out, and I think the main contributor to my success as a student is my organization system. This system has been refined throughout my high school years, but I think now I’ve finally found the most effective methods.
Please remember that this isn’t the only organization system you can adopt; this is just the one that works the best for me, and I hope that by sharing it with you, you’ll gain a new perspective on how to stay organized as a high school student.
The first thing I wanna talk about is my notebook system, which I briefly mentioned in my Guide to Note-Taking.
My notebook system comprises three types of notebooks: the Everything Notebook, the subject notebook, and the revision notebook.
The Everything Notebook
The first stage is in-class notes. I only bring one notebook to school every day. I call it my Everything Notebook, and this is where I write down all of the notes I take in class. This way, I don’t have to lug around six notebooks where I’m only going to use a few pages in each of them that day.
Subject Notebooks
At the end of the day, I would revise my notes and compare them to the syllabus so I know where we are in the learning process. I would then transfer my class notes from my Everything Notebook to my different subject notebooks. This is stage two. I also start to jazz up my notes because I use the notes in my subject notebooks to study for tests.
In addition to my class notes, I include material from my teachers’ notes that they might not have elaborated on, as well as points in the syllabus (I’m currently taking A2) that were only glazed over briefly, or not at all, in some cases. (Note: this does not mean they completely skip a chapter or topic; it’s more like they missed a few bullet points that should be in my notes but aren’t. An example would be if we’re learning about phenol reactions and the teacher forgot to mention the use of FeCl3 as a test for phenol.)
Revision Notebooks
Stage three comes a little later, when exam week is just around the corner. Essentially, I rewrite and improve my notes from my five different subject notebooks into a single revision notebook or binder. (Recently, I’ve opted for a revision notebook because they’re lighter and easier to carry around.)
Because my teachers don’t always teach in the order of the syllabus, the first thing I do is organize my notes according to the syllabus. I would then fill in any other missing gaps in the material that hadn’t been filled in stage two.
When compiling material for my revision notebook, I use as many sources as possible: my own notes, my teachers’ notes, youtube videos, online sites, and my favorite, the mark scheme! I add in some answers from past papers (explanations only, so no calculations) mainly to secure marks. It’s safer to memorize definitions straight from the mark scheme than from the textbook or from handouts. I also do this to ease my memorization, especially for topics that require lengthy explanations. It’s a lot easier to remember the 6 points I need to explain the principles of NMRI than to remember everything in the four-page handout my teacher gave me.
Folders and binders are essential to organizing your papers. Some people keep a single accordion folder for all their papers, but for me it’s just too heavy to carry around all the time. The same goes for subject folders that are brought to school every day.
Instead, my binder/folder system comprises my Everything Folder and my subject binders.
The Everything Folder
The folder I carry with me to school every day is this A4 folder I got from Tokyu Hands. It has 5 pockets, one for each day of the week, so all the papers I receive on Monday will go behind the first divider, and so on.
Some people also keep blank papers in their folders; I don’t because my school has its own lined paper and graphing pads that I keep under my desk that I use if a teacher asks us to do an assignment on those papers. If I do work at home, I prefer to just use a plain A4 paper or a legal pad.
Subject Binders
At the end of the week, I’ll sort my papers into my subject binders. Sometimes I’ll keep some papers in the folder if I think I’ll be needing it the next week. This usually only applies to worksheets because all my teachers’ notes are available on Google Classroom, so I can access them even if I don’t physically have them.
Each of these binders have sections inside them:
Physics: 1 for handouts, notes, and tests, 1 for Paper 4 (Theory), 1 for Paper 5 (Practical Planning). I included extra tabs to mark the different topics in the handouts section.
Chemistry: same as Physics.
Economics: 1 for Paper 3 (MCQ), 1 for Paper 4 (Case Study and Essay). A lot of my Economics material is online, though.
English: 1 for Paper 3 (Text and Discourse analysis), and 2 for Paper 4 (Language Topics, which includes 1 for Child Language Acquisition, 1 for World Englishes). Past papers, handouts, and notes all go under their respective topics.
Mathematics: I just keep everything together because I never revise math and just constantly do past papers.
This makes it easier for me to revise each subject because I can just take one binder with me instead of a messy folder with everything just shoved in there.
I keep a magazine file for each of my A-Level subjects (English and Mathematics are combined). All my textbooks, revision guides, and subject notebooks are kept here, so if I need to revise one subject, that’s the magazine file I’ll take out.
These magazine files prevent any small things (like my book of flashcards) from being shoved to the back of my bookshelf, or materials from different subjects from getting mixed up.
In my senior year, I mostly plan using this app called Edo Agenda. It syncs across all my devices for free and has all the features I need: a to do list to organize tasks, monthly and weekly calendars to organize events, a journal to organize notes and memos.
I used to bullet journal regularly, but it takes too much time during weekdays, so now I just bullet journal for the therapeutic effects it gives me, and I use an app for organizing tasks and events. Sometimes at the end of each week, I’ll transfer my tasks to my bullet journal and then decorate the page, but again, this is just for its therapy.
Organizing your school supplies is just as important as organizing your papers and notes. With a more organized backpack and pencil case, you won’t waste time looking for your things at the bottom of an abyss.
Pencil Case
I don’t find it necessary to bring so much stationery to school unless I plan on making notes at school (usually during revision week).
Backpack
Because we’re already in the revision term, I don’t really carry a lot of things in my everyday backpack, just the following:
Pencil case
Everything Notebook
Everything Folder
Revision notebook
Kindle
Phone
Wallet
Earphones
Calculator
Speaker
Drinking bottle
A pouch with things like a hairbrush, pads, and lip balm
And that’s all for now! I hope this post will help you organize your school life (if you haven’t already) or at least provide some useful insights on some ways to stay organized as a high school student.
