places to go, things to do.

(originally this was tuesday)

wow so this is how it feels to be alive. hahah
i'm actually doing something with my holidays. this feels good.

i've made a mental list of things i've done (and plan to do). alright, step one to being a wiener.
1. Birthday cards (so i'll half strike out this one. cos i've done one and another's coming along)
2. Start drawing again (and maybe a little watercolour too. woothoot)
3. Train aggressively and start on new floreios
4. Borrow all the DVDs/ books on my to-watch/ to-read list
5. GET A JOB
6. Go out. A lot. Hopefully without spending too much, but c'mon, who are we kidding.

usually when i make lists of assignments due, i tend to throw in stuff that i've already completed.
yknow, just sort of as a motivation. and to lie to myself also. eheheh
not mentioning that the already achieved targets take up half the list. yay for lazy-bastardness.

and i don't know if it's because of going back to SA and seeing my O level piece, but i suddenly feel like creating installation pieces around SP.
okay so the idea came into my head as a joke first. it was more like wanting to scribble fancy shit on cubicle walls.
which is what i did back then in SA anyway, on classroom tables.
but yeah, i want to explore a more illustrative style and anonymously decorate SP's toilets with my unique brand of random.

AND i realised i'm focusing more on still life recently. it's strange, i used to hate still life cause it was so dead.
but i guess now that i've not drawn in so long, i subconsciously feel as though i'm learning how to draw all over again.
and still life feels good now. it feels nice to just be able to take something, to feel it in a spatial sense and just appreciate the form that it possesses and capture that form. maybe this is why people like still life.
in any case, i'm taking the chance to brush up on my foundation work.

mmkay that's it, i'll save the rest of my thoughts for another post.
