December Summary

Image
December is equally an unlucky and lucky month. There is a lot of bad things that happened but there are good ones too. I want to reflect on those things so I will write them on this blog. This month, I was really stressed because I have to keep carrying group projects because I have this irrational fear that if I do not take initiative, our grades will all fall and it will be my fault because I can. You know anxiety together with stress, that is how it feels like. I have to keep holding on to my hope that I will be able to graduate and leave my school because I have been suffering there for almost 6 years. Sometimes I regret transferring to my current school because if only I stayed at my previous school, I will probably have 4 years that are less stressful. However, if I actually stayed there, my perception of hard will be different too. I will not be ready in college as much as I am now. Lastly, I will not meet the people that changed me for good. I'm thankful but I'm ready ...

Back at Playing Games

Image
I started playing again this December! That is why I really enjoyed my break and made a few buffers. You can check my progress on the left side. I want to share what I'm currently playing this month. 1. Rainy Attic Room This game is relaxing and I can live it for a long time. It helped me not get distracted during the last days of school before the break. I haven't finished the game so I do not have a lot to say. It reminds me of the game I played before which is Alter Ego where I tap to get points. 2. Purrfect Tale This game is so cute and it is literary perfect if you can expand, design, and have a lot of cats in your house. This is so addicting that I might delete it once January comes. Just kidding, what I'm planning to do is just do the task in winter celebration and harvest my crops. So once I have a lot of free time, I have a lot of things already gathered. The only problem I have in this game is there are a lot of bugs. I hope they fix them soon because I can see ho...

Unexpected Degrade

Image
This December, I recorded my monologue assignment. After that, I went downstairs to turn on my PC. Then, BOOM! my PC exploded. Specifically, the CPU's power supply. I'm currently sharing with my brother's PC. Then after a few days, the AVR exploded. I don't know why I'm so unlucky that week. Thankfully, I'm safe and all my important files are on my hard drive. Rest in peace to the curtain that got a small burn. I actually heard it burning when I turned on the AVR so I immediately told my family something it is burning before it exploded. I'm kinda shy when using my brother's PC but I will probably get used to it. I have this strong urge to have my own devices like a tablet or laptop so I can't bother him but I know we do not have enough money for that. The table here is small to fit my pen tab and very unstable too so I haven't finished any artwork here yet. I edited some for school purposes with the mouse and demo drawing with my pen tab. The go...

On a normal school day, a teacher bought a small bottle and told the grade 6 students that it has a curse. If the bottle was opened, something bad will happen.

Bottle of Stories (100)

Rey and Kid stood and faced the front door so when his father arrived, he can immediately ask for permission for Kid to stay. His father came home and Rey immediately grabbed his father's hand and put it on his forehead. After that, he stepped back hold Kid's back in preparation for his introduction. "This is Kid, my friend. He has no home so I want to ask if it is okay for him to live here, temporarily." His father kneeled in front of Rey. "I'm sorry." Rey's hope was shattered and he wanted a dispute. "But..." "Rey, I want to apologize for all the things I have done to you. I promise that I will refrain from drinking again. I will be less strict from now on because I realized something when I saw your friend here. My actions are the reason why your mother left us, but I will try to reconcile with her. Just trust me." "Umm, okay," said Rey who was really confused because his father is acting differently. "So, can Ki...

Memorable Assignments in First Quarter 2021

Image
I do not have a lot of free time to write about anything else because most of my day is consumed by my assignment so I will just talk about some of the tasks that I liked during our 1st quarter. This is my assignment for contemporary arts and I titled it "Vulnerable". I used Girl with a Pearl Earring by Johannes Vermeer as a reference where I did everything on that painting as the opposite. What I like about this assignment is I got time to draw again and I was able to reuse this art on Bottle of Stories. This doodle art is only a part of the 10 different types of poems I did for our subject Creative Writing. I was able to write a story on that assignment and I have fun writing those poems. I will probably post it here once I replace the images I got from google with my drawings. Lastly, the previous blog " Behind the Scenes of My Vlog " is also an assignment for Creative Writing. I'm pretty neutral on that one because that assignment is pretty hard. I'm not...

Ideas for my Future Posts

Image
Next week, the last update of Bottle of Stories will be uploaded. So what comes after that? What kind of posts will be replacing my longest-running series while I'm still rewriting/revising it? I have a lot of ideas in my mind and I want to share them with you. I don't know if I will be able to keep it up due to my tight schedule, but I did it in our first quarter so I believe I can do it again. My only obstacle is drawing for my upload and I have not found a solution for that yet. Maybe I should make a  monochrome type of illustrations on some of my posts so I can easily finish them. However, I have to practice how to use screentones too so it will take time for me to learn. I'm willing to put time and effort into doing the things I love. My first idea is to post the first revised chapter of Bottle of Stories. I finished writing the first part in Filipino and the only thing I have to do is to translate it into English, edit it so it doesn't sound awkward, and draw the ...

Bottle of Stories (99)

Image
When Rey and Annie woke up, they went to Choe's village with Jayson and Kid. "It's been so long, I thought we won't be able to come back here," said Rey. "Shh, they must not know," said Annie while being wary of her surrounding. "Nah, no one is close anyway." "I'm just reminding you." Everyone paused when Jayson, the one who led them stopped. "Jayson, what happened?" asked Rey. "Do you have something that can hide my face?" he asked. "I have one," said Kid who is holding a big piece of cloth. "Is that a curtain? Where did you get that?" Rey examined the fabric. "I think I have something." Annie handed a handkerchief from her bag. Jayson took both and wore them. He tied the handkerchief and wrapped the cloth to his head. "Why do you have to hide your face?" asked Rey. "Because the King of Warrior city wants his head." The light blue-haired girl said. Rey was deli...
