Thoughts: Of routines and disoriented diving.

We are all so obliviously attached to routine. Same places, same people, same experiences, over and over and over again until we get sick of it, to the point of madness. Then we wake up one morning and tell ourselves: “Y’know what? Let’s go out and get ourselves lost today.” So you dress up, pack up and go forth without any care, because what happens, happens.

And it does happen.

And you’re suddenly thrown into a whirlwind of things, of new places, new people, new experiences, the kind you’ve never expected but still welcome into your life anyway. It’s like free falling off a cliff into the cold waters of the sea. Everything is so fast, scary but exhilirating nonetheless. And for a moment, you feel like you’re flying.

That is, until you hit the water head first.

And then the next thing you know you’re already sinking.

What goes up must come down, it’s simple physics. And you find yourself right back where you started. You revert back into a routine. Sure, it might be in a different place with different people and a different experience but it’s the same situation as before. And we do this because we’re bored, because we’re lazy, because it feels safer, because we know it’ll drive us nuts sooner or later and we’ll just swim our way up and break through the water’s surface only to find ourselves climbing up that same fucking cliff just so we can jump off it again and again and again. Which, ironically, becomes sort of a routine when you look at the bigger picture.

So while you set off to find an even bigger cliff to climb (just to prove that you have bigger balls than me). Being the lazy bum that I am, I’ll probably resign myself to drifting around in the sea for a few years or so and maybe befriend a dolphin or a whale or something before I decide to go free falling again.

"Barren Dancer" Photo manipulation

And the dancer dances; treads on water like fragile mirrors that offer little to nothing to the parched, barren land.

Photos are not mine. I would like to cite sources but unfortunately this is an old work so I don't really remember where I got the photos from. If you do know, please tell me. :)

"Love is a sickness, can I get a witness?"

Sort-off spur of the moment illustration while listening to Tablo's "Bad". It's a really addicting song. I've always loved Tablo's works, crossing my fingers that Epik High will make a come back now that Mithra and DJ Tukutz has been discharged from the army. :)

Took me around 8 hours, on PS CS3 (There's no SAI for Mac, boohoo) It's times like this that I wish human hair would just be one solid color. :|

Of Chasing Peacocks

I've always wondered, is it legal to have peacocks as pets? Because if it is then I want one. (They'd probably poke my eyes out first I suppose)

I probably spent the majority of the day yesterday chasing these little buggers around the park just so I could take a decent shot of them. The albino peacock (Who I have thusly named "Sattelite Dish") made me go around in circles, up the hill, then down the hill again before it jumped down a railing and finally opened up its tail feathers. And this kind little peahen decided it wanted to guide us around as we toured the aviary.

In the spirit of being productive during my 2 months of being a bum. I've decided to start making jewelry again. Hopefully, I get to sell some during my time here. If not, at least I get new accessories to wear for myself. So really, its a win-win situation.

A quick doodle because I started to become sentimental.

Thank you for the 4 years of friendship. My college life wouldn't be the same with out you. Sana after ng grad (and Cebu) magkikita pa rin tayo, at sana kahit nasa Davao ako inuupdate niyo pa rin ako sa mga bagong balita at chismiss sa grupo. Hahaha! Thank you for taking in my weirdness and making me even more weird. Here's to all 4 years of laughter, fun, craziness and kabaduyness. WE MADE IT GUYS!

Lezgo Barkada Fo Life!

"These hands"

Inspired by an old poem I wrote back in high school. I found the word file while digging through my laptop. Yes, my laptop is old. :)

----------

These hands

Like the warmth of your breath

Of clouds that float

Through your eyes

A tiny whisper

fragments of your voice

Awakens, Soothes

Like sunset against the sky’s palette

And these hands

They don’t forget.

Today has been a great day. :) Thank you Ateneo for the Award. This is probably the first time i've received a legit award. There's this wonderful feeling of being rewarded for something that I love doing.
