musings.

after i blogged earlier i just kept thinking about random stuff. decided to change the background on my desktop. it now looks like this. i guess my artistic side decided to overthrow my "bio" side.

2 new sketches are up. they have been sitting in my sketch book for quite a few days now. i drew them during the free periods in class. working on another yue. drew the outline but not the details.

on:

Touya with pancakes!: the original image just amused me. i wanted to try drawing something comical. and i have always always wanted to draw touya. but there aren't many good pictures of him on the internet to refer to. oh well.

Ban: quite happy with this one. not too bad for the first time attempting to draw him. his eye expression is quite difficult to catch cos ban always has this intense, deep look when he stares at people. except the cigarette doesn't quite resemble a cigarette. many who've seen this picture ask: "what's he doing chewing on a stick?" well. it just proves that i don't smoke.

habits i never quite realised i had

1. listening to the same songs:
over and over and over again.

it's just this quirky habit of mine. i never quite tire of songs that i like. the songs in my mp3 usually stay the same for around half a year(?) although i have 8 folders in my mp3, i only touch around 2. the rest are basically there to fill up the space. that's probably why i don't mind having a mp3 with a small amount of storage space.

sometimes when people borrow my mp3 they return it to me within 5 minutes. cos they don't quite understand the fascination i have with the songs i like. i don't like to judge music on first impression. i will just let it seep in until i know the song's lyrics and fully analysed them, the tone the singer is using, the back-up vocals, the parts played by the various instruments etc etc. wierd? it's just me.

2.taking off my watch to relax.

i wear my watch in school in order for me to be on time for things like assembly, lessons etc etc. i take off my watch when i reach home and usually when i go out i prefer not to wear my watch.

it was only the other day that i realised i had this wierd habit. it was during one of the free periods we had and i had nothing to do. i was quite tense see, cos both my partners were sleeping. so i took off my watch. and i felt so calm.

i guess the watch is a symbol of resposibility to me.

3.collecting junk.

this one is probably more common. i collect a lot of sentimental junk. today when i was re-packing my table i found a lot of stuff. letters, short notes, swimming meet booklets and even aeroplane tickets. i always have to remind myself to stop collecting all this junk...

...but whenever i think that way, i'm reminded of some adults whom i know that cannot remember anything of their childhood and what they did, the people they interacted with. thanks, but i rather have a few momentos to remember people and events by.

ok. i'm getting quite tired.

jaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
