Mazui~!
It's almost one month since my last post. Thanks in part the extra task that required me to be on my tippy toes all of the time. Thank god the weekend wasn't affected.
One thing that i learned throughout the project that i can share; Everything isn't as it seems.
Why? Well... there's the non-supportive support, non-effective effect, non-anything everything. But hey, i've learned a lot and that alone is enough to cover up all that i just mentioned. Speaking of learning, you guys ever heard of Russel Peters? The Canadian-Indian stand up comedian? If you don't mind some rather abrasive language and do enjoy some poke in the eye fun, go google it somwhere. It's that good.
Will have more frequent update now that i'm back to normal mode. Hope to put something interesting soon. Hehahu~!

17 days since last blog... and thank God for it. Not that i've given up blogging or anything. The fact of the matter is that the days un-blogged is a testament to how things have gone about for the past 2 weeks or so.
Got this special task assigned to myself and a team of some freshie like me by a special person. After two weeks of trying to find the solution, all i can say is this; Prevention is better than cure. Full stop.
I can't share much regarding the actual task we have in our hands, but the fact of the matter is that it's trying to fix a sinking ship with some gaffer-tape. Yeah it might work, but it'll be slightly less bad if not just as worse. But still, what we found out so far is something beyond belief and begs us to ask this question to everything; WHY???
Oh well, to do something about that sinking ship is still better in a way than just leaving it as it is. The task is due in a few days time, and somehow or another the progress of our team is almost spot-on. Good.

As you can see that there's a bit of a gap since last i posted an update here. Factor (or alasan as some people call it); Been busy with things and trying to make ends meet. And the latter has nothing to do with the financial crisis bugging me. It's something else that i find more complicated, i'll share when it's settled.

In any case, last week was a rather hectic week due to me being the representative of my department in a roadshow at the UTM Skudai. Some of you might've noticed since the media did cover the event... albeit for a few seconds or with some texts.

But, just to share, on the last day we did find some spare time to go and have a peek at Singapore and boy was it a surprise. Now, i'm not gonna say that what i'm stating here implies on everyone, but for me apart from the huu-haa wowweee side of Singapore (the main bit and it's tourist attractions) everything else seems rather... dull and sedate. There's that Britishness feel at the things that you see and it's atmosphere, but i'd rather enjoy that at Britain. Adding to the fact that unnecessary restrictions (go there to find out) and some rather unfriendly customs/immigration officers ruined the journey there, i'm not bought over.

February Artworks

Haven't posted any of my artworks for a while. Slipped of my mind, and because there's no internet within my grasp (that's why i'm in this CC today. Thank god)

Anyways, below are the artworks for the month (and January for that matter). The calendar for January was scrapped mainly due to the file being corrupted before i can finish it. Nuts. Anyhow, as per usual, enjoy the artworks~~~

February calendar V2.0

February calendar v1.0

This is the base artwork for the February calendar (coloured version)

This was another artwork which i made for the calendar, but ditched it because the colouring for the clothes is a bit off...
Candidate artwork for March, original version...

... and the coloured one. Not good. Will have to re-colour it again
Compilation of all for this blog entry~~~

Yesterday was my first anniversary (anniversary???) of my life in Proton. What better way to celebrate than... Aoi-chan having one of her headlamp bulb burn out. It's as if i was blowing out a candle or something to commemorate this milestone. Crud. Last time she became ill when it was my birdthday (see previous blog). Another RM30 spent on her...

Anyhow, let's not make this sour. Looking back, it seems that i've hit quite a few highs and lows. The low in particular should be seen as falling into a hole of unknown depth. All in accumulation of my stupidity for not listening to others and my quite bad state of health. But due to that experience, i've reached the highs. i think i'm more mature now in my way of thinking and in dealing with stress, people, time and life. Guess that whatever my parents always raved about at me when i was younger makes more sense now than ever before.
Mature huh? i'm talking like i'm an old man... oh wait. i am old... not too old, but still older than before... oh wait, that's not true right? Er....(sign of an old man???)
