Moments of beauty


The puddles of water reflecting fragments of the sky,

The crinkling of the bells of the rickshaws as they pass by,

The intense blue of the evening sky after rain,

The warm glow of the yellow light from the house in front of my balcony,

Beauty finds its way through all the noise, chaos and mess of the world.

Evening out

So here's what I drew...just now lol. Felt like painting something quick. It was quite relaxing and also kinda fun painting this. The other day I saw this really nice evening sky and yesterday morning I saw this really beautiful sky at dawn. The colours were so nice. Just too awesome. This was sorta inspired by that.

Done in Photoshop CS3 with me intuos4. Took around an hour.
Critiques and comments appreciated.

Well I better go sleep now..sheesh it's almost 4 am and I was supposed to sleep at 2am today too..oh well.
See yaaa
G'night.

Some stuff...

I don't know why this crap has to repeat itself over and over again. I'll probably sound like an arse for saying this and there are people who lead worse lives..but it's my life and I know what I'm going through..so this has to be said. Why can't my life be normal for a change? Why must all these shitty complications seep in? WHY? Why must you do this to us? Because of you grown ups us kids have to suffer. What's with this awkward tension you're creating? So many whys huh. Oh well this has been bugging me for the past 1 month or so. Have to get it out.

For quite a while now of my close relatives is behaving really weirdly and a few others are acting weird too and this is creating an awkward tension within my family. Worst part is it's making communication between us kids weirder. I can hardly get to meet my cousins. I miss them a lot, but I think my little brother misses them even more since he doesn't have anyone to play with these days. Sure you can say he's got me...but I've been so busy with my exams coming up and all.....I hardly get to spend much time with him. Plus since we moved to a new place, don't have a tv yet and he's not supposed to play games on the computer all the time. Even though we share the same room we don't get to play games or do much together nowadays. Though I still try to talk with him as much as possible. But I do miss those fun evenings when us 5 would play some board game, talk, laugh and just have a great time together. And here I thought now that we moved and are a lot closer we'd be able to visit each other more often...but guess what? The opposite happens. We hardly get to meet...ever I:< Dang grown ups and their silly schemes. Stop friggin making life awkward for us kids :< As if life ain't weird enough as it is.

And I hardly get to meet any of my friends either. Either they live too far, too busy or just live abroad. Having friends come over to your place regularly is like stuff you hear in legends for me. Having them come over once is like too good to be true. Getting to meet em is also the same. That's how it is for me. And now that I hardly go to school I don't get to meet anyone. I miss the fun times I used to have in school, mind you I had a lotta crappy times at school too...but then obviously I wouldn't think fondly of those times right? I miss the times I spent with my friends at school, miss eating tiffin at school, miss drawing at school...and miss doing school homework even. Wow heh. My A-level experience has been shitty, I kid you not. And after my O-levels I though A-levels would be even better, the teachers would be more serious and be more willing to teach...couldn't have been more wrong. They were even worse, would hardly teach stuff in school. And slowly people stopped attending classes. Me and my friend would often be the only people going to class...then the classes hardly happened. Then even we stopped going to school...it was tough for me to do that but when school wasn't like school anymore what use was of me going there to everyday? Out of bitterness I stopped going to school. And I hate coaching so couldn't be arsed to go there either. So where do I go?

Well I stay at home all day is what. Which is fine an all that but sheesh .... I just miss everyone a lot...my friends, my cousins. It's been so long. Been feeling so detached from everything. Miss doing stuff I like on the computer too without having to get worried about being busted....like playing games, reading books, comics, animating, doodling, etc etc. The internet is supposed to help you keep in touch with your friends, but how does one keep in touch when people either don't come online or don't reply? Ah don't mind me, I'm just ranting here. I guess I've just been stuck in the A-level loop for too long. Can't wait till my exams finish. My brain's just in a knot right now I think. I guess I'll just do nothing and doodle complete random stuff all day for a few days and play games and do nothing much and just relax and let my mind untie all the knots by itself. Yeahh.

But for now I gotta remind myself, this time won't come back to me so I gotta make the best out of it and make sure to learn all the stuff and get my subject revisions done before my exams start. So that I don't feel like I could've studied a bit more during my exams. Because that feeling sucks. Normally I can't be bothered to worry about my results, but that nagging feeling is indeed quite annoying. So yeah I gotta get my revision done. But I'm glad I took some time out to write this because I feel a lot better after getting it all out. This stuff has been churning in my mind for a while now and I couldn't take it anymore. So had to let it out.

I guess everything will be okay, just a matter of time. But it seems to be taking quite a while till my exams finish heh. Oh well.

Sleeeepy o_O

I feel so sleepy I don't even...my sleeping pattern's gone down the drain. I can't even keep my eyes open even though I slept from 5:30pm in the afternoon till 8:30pm at night. Okay so that's 3 hours..still I can't believe I'm feeling this sleepy at this time of the day. It's not even 10pm yet. Maaaan this sucks. I don't even feel like doing anything. Just feel like dropping off to sleep. Hmm the last few days I've been waking up around 8:30 or 9am even if I went to sleep at like 4:30/5am...o_O It's not like I wasn't sleepy..I was really really sleepy but I couldn't sleep. Maybe I woke up cause I was hungry..This just sucks. Let's hope I can get some sleep tonight. 

Aside from that I think I'm finally starting to get the hang of this normal distribution thingy. Though it's still a pain in the butts. I got so much to study and yet I'm feeling so sleepy....sheesh.

Well see ya
Ciao
Super sleepy Mony signing off.

Rainy day girl WIP



Yeah yeah another girl in a rainy day..I sure like rainy days a lot eh.Well I WAS born in the rainy season..on a really rainy day so maybe that's why lol. XD Anyway I drew this maybe 2 weeks ago..yeah it was raining that day so I felt like doing a quick drawing...but then for some reason I decided to complete it and so this is how it's going. I'm trying a out a slightly different lineless style here, the sketch is visible since I need to use it as a guide. But all those effin layers..damn I'm too lazy to use that many. I keep wanting to merge em all and paint over. Getting hard to stop myself from doing that *facepalm* At any rate since I got exams, ain't getting to work on it much. Opened it up last night after ages and added more colours and started shading. Dunno when it'll be finished though. Oh well.

Here's how it looks without the lines (still haven't finished adding all the flat colours though):

Kinda funky painting like this, though I got so used to painting on a few layers that switching from one layer to another is becoming a bit annoying XD Oh well.

Photoshop CS3 with me intuos 4. Painter X for the sketch.

Anyway,
I gots ta run.
See ya.
Take care
Ciao
