    Shows: Avatar: The Legend of Korra

    Watching Avatar: Legend of Korra was never at the top of my list of priorities for many reasons: I had no time, no one in my immediate circle was honestly raving about its awesomeness (though now, at this point, I’ve discovered some fans lurking about), and most importantly I was afraid of being disappointed. In…

  • Productivity Level — Fluctuating

    If I had to describe my productivity level today (and for the last few days), I’d say it was –as the post title suggests– fluctuating. Irregular. Highly frustrating. Exhibit A: I’ve just woken up from taking a two-hour nap, and ahead of me looms the idea of washing  up (a necessity), eating dinner (also a…

  • Paint and Pens: Old VA and WIP

    I took the Visual Arts elective last school year. I am most proud of my imperfect painting, which was done as a final requirement for the painting part of the curriculum.  It’s an amateur reproduction (is that the correct term for it?) of Andre Derain’s The Thames and Tower Bridge. The original painting was a…

  • Movies: Prometheus (Spoilers)

    Well that was unexpected.

  • During College Feels

    They whisper, as if it’s a well-worn horror story, the word:  “College.”  And you might gasp out: YES! (for all the parties, the forgiving schedule, the orgs, the boys, the opportunities). Or NO! (for the pressures, the burden, the heartache and late nights). But mostly you might say I DON’T KNOW? (because you don’t know…

  • Movies: Men In Black 3 (I guess there’re spoilers?)

    Eh. Well. It was okay (supposedly better than Snow White and the Huntsman, though I still have to watch that one to find out).

  • Art and mah life: Figure Drawing

    It’s as if my tries at drawing actual people are becoming a metaphor for my life. It starts out wonky, then bearable, and then finally it progresses to low levels of open-mouthed sad faces.  Lol. (Note the lack of male body attempts. This is because WHY ARE THERE SO MANY MUSCLES WHY.)  I should probably…

  • Paint: Happy Mothers’ Day!

    This made me (re)realize a couple of things: First, I really don’t know how to paint anything resembling a straight line. Second, I want a tablet for digital painting. Sigh. Third, scanning brings out the unique texture of the canvas.  Fourth, I love my mom. 

  • Awkward

    When I was younger, I failed at making friends. Well, not in the sense that I didn’t actually have any, but more in the sense that I had very few of them, and most of them were also books. So. I grew up a little and became secretly awkward. I am very good in making “business” friends…
