I wake up at 5:30, shower and prepare, go to the cafe at 6:30 and stay until 7:45 to go to this training. I think about how long we could keep this kind of routine, because we’re really tired. But I must say that I’m starting to really enjoy this training so far.
My first day was quite boring and uncomfortable. I was my usual quiet self doing the work I was given to do. I met the...
It should be fine...
Last Wednesday, I was finally able to get another appointment from the director to see if this time, I would finally have a place where I could complete my one month job training. I was actually unprepared; it was 5 pm, and before that I had to wait in school for the medical checkup (which turns out that I cannot see well from afar after the result of the eye test. The others have blurry...
Expectation vs. Reality
Starting today until Saturday, the second and third year students of the school would come back for a reason I don’t know before everyone goes off to the ojt. At first I was actually pretty calm about the idea, and I even thought of greeting those people who actually helped me get some attention for my artwork. I did ran a conversation in my head, tried acting out the dialogue I would say...
I'm currently in school..
we just finished make-up classes and now we’re left to do whatever we want in the computer lab. I wish I could just go home; I don’t want to go to Italian class today either. I’m too tired and my back hurts. Class wasn’t so bad but I couldn’t concentrate well enough.
Companion
We had a customer walk in today. They were a husband and wife about in their late 80s, especially the old man. The woman looked a bit younger.
Then my sister started saying,”it must be sad being old. They’re probably just by themselves in their homes, their children away an have their own families, etc.”
I watched them eat for a while. The woman was stronger and so often she...
Late night
-it’s exactly 1:17 am here right now. Two hours ago, the cafe turns into a bar and people come out of nowhere and occupied the seats.
-There was just the two of us (stepdad in the kitchen making orders). I run in and out taking orders and delivering them. I chose the wrong footwear today.
-I guess it’s gonna be another summer of martyrdom. More than 18 hours of work without any...
Hyphenated
-I don’t know if trying to learn things at the same time would actually teach me something or make me learn nothing at all. I was allowed to borrow this thick book about adobe flash, I’m trying to learn perspective drawing through Marvel-type comics while juggling multiple other projects and responsibilities.
-I decided to turn my recycled notebook into a random diary with sketches....

......
So today I was the first of my class to be accompanied by the school director to what could be where I would do my on job training. We had some problems printing out all my work last Saturday because the printer won’t work and so my Photoshop teacher had to erase all his files on his USB and put my work there to print it by himself at his other workplace. He brought them in today so now I...

The story continues
I’m pretty sure those who have been following me since I made my blog knew when I talk about mr. K.
Earlier this year, I was surprised to see a message from him, asking me how I’m doing and all that. I tell Bry everything even this part and I know it’s not something he’s happy about of course. And me, actually replied. We exchanged emails a couple times then he finally...
Tough week
So ever since the final exams have been announced last week, I’ve been really trying to focus on it as much as I could, knowing that I would obviously fail my Italian subject. No worries with math and other subjects, because for some reason we do a review of what’s actually in the test a few hours before the actual. It’s also strange that you could ask questions (almost answers)...
Super Spy
There was a time when I wanted to have a job in the police/military field. Not as one of those “in” the field, but the one on the other side of the radio command thing. Before I got homeschooled and attended a normal school, I wanted to join that club wherein we dress up with military suits, go jogging all over the school and do obstacle exercises, etc. I used to love discipline lol....
Sometimes the distance helps
I think if there wasn’t a Bry in my life, maybe I won’t be as determined to work hard. Of course, other than my family, especially my mom, who, during unexpected moments, would say or do something that would suddenly give me a boost or make me remember why I do what I do. But with a Bry on the other side of the ocean, there is that will to try even harder to push myself over my limits....

Alarms suck on weekends
I had a dream about a castle called “Neele” (read as Neil). What I saw in my dream were ruins of it. It was strange because it was built between above a river, so there’s water underneath the ruins. There were other people there like they’re some sort of tourists (including me) and I saw on one stone table, a old book where it say. “Castle of Neele” with a...

Fingers crossed on this one
Ever since my wild classmates made my previous Physics teacher quit our class, the director started searching for another teacher. And, after the field trip, he decided that the tour guide in the Physics museum would be our new prof. We will only have a 4 lessons with him before we set of for the ojt next month. And today wasn’t so bad even though at the half hour end of the two hour class,...

Incoming one week vacation
Since it’s Holy Week, school is suspended for a week. I need it. I need a break from school in general. I want some late night movies, self time and all that. Then after that, it’s back to school and after a month and a half, the short internship would start. I really wish they would put me somewhere I could draw most of the time. I don’t wanna be working in the printing house...

It's coming back...
So I’ve watched Twilight:Breaking Dawn part 2 for the first time today (Jacob wooo! Jasper woo!) and I must say that kind of inspired me to want to write again. I guess it’s because it was once a book that have turned into a movie. Not that I think my story would go that far or something but I can always dream >.>
I’ve read the books too before. It was simply written and...

Drawing request
There was just like 8 of us in class today. I’m not surprised; we were always less than half the class during Saturday, The class went on anyways. We had Italian class, which we took the time to make the school newspaper. I was given an editorial position I guess, since we weren’t really following the standard template of a real newspaper. We could write what we want as long as...
Parent teachers
I wonder what it’s like to see my teachers with their families. Sometimes my profs would mention a thing or two about their son/daughter and that’s it. I think it’ll be nice to be see them without regarding them as ‘teachers’ but a ‘dad’ or ‘mom’
It happened twice that my teachers didn’t go to school for a reason: their children is...
I really should learn how to save money..
I just bought a kneaded eraser, a fountain pen (an unbranded one so it’s pretty cheap but I’d sti cross that out from my wishlist. An effing fountain pen dammit!!!!), and my very first 0.5 mm micron *-*
for a second I thought I’m stupid for buying, but at least I’m happy..

Cartoons
Today in Illustrator class, we were asked to make a cartoon version of ourselves. At first I didn’t know what to do because I had an old picture of myself to make a vector drawing out of, but not cartoon style. And because I like realism and extreme detailing, I wasn’t so excited about this activity.
Then my professor asked us to do a research of the old cartoons, specifically the...

Soon there won't be distance
Yesterday, me and bry were talking about some nearby future plans. I was surprised and kinda got nervous when he said he’s looking for good ticket prices to come here. I felt happy that he’s doing his best (he works alot) to find his way to me. And at that time all I could think about was what would it be like to see him for real for the first time, getting my hand held, getting the...
I want to learn self defense martial arts. Or kick-boxing (without going to competitions of course).
Not only that is a good workout, but might be something useful one day. I find it really hard to get up early in the morning before school to work out some sweat before shower. I hate my bloated stomach. I’m like a toad lol. I wish I could earn some money and set aside some to attend some...

Field trip (Urbino part)
So we’ve finally had our field trip last Friday. I was expecting that alot of my classmates would come because we won’t need to spend for anything but whatever we want to buy, but there’s just about less than 20 of us. It wouldve been more fun if there’s more of us, but I was fine with the less too. We waited at the school for about half an hour because we’re hoping...
Late
Last night, as usual since about a week ago, the German tourists from the next door hotel came by. There were about 10 of them drinking large draft beer at the corner while other customers watched football.
It was okay; it gets worse during the summer when every seat inside and outside is occupied and there’s 4 of us running around.
So the hours passed, game’s finished and...

On Another note...
I do have little things that cheered me up
I once saw an Italian mini series with a police guy protagonist. I liked that show even though I just seen it once. I didn’t know the name until I saw him as a guest in an evening show where he was promoting a new film (which I didn’t really like just looking at the trailer) but anyway, the show is called “Capitano Ultimo” or...
So much for a ride home
I woke up in a good mood and went to school in a good mood even though Wednesday subjects are the most boring ones. I actually thought that this would be the start of going back to my cheerful mood…
So I was on the way home after school, feeling sleepy and tired and hungry and dizzy because I didn’t eat (and instead, drew) during the snack break. I took the usual bus home and just...
Random things
I’m broke and I can’t expect any $$$..
I want to send postcards but they would cost some precious cents.
I want ink pens.. And ink. But they’re expensive.
The lines at the bottom of my feet are gone. Or erased. The bottom of my feet is just some smooth and weird. I wonder if the creases would come back..
My teacher said I think too much and spend too much time by myself.
I...
