i'd been setting my homework aside for these past few days and basically trying to get my creativity levels up. i had always been more of a programmer than a designer. aka using my left brain more than my right. so i'm looking through online stuff to learn more and try to get creative on my own at the same time. seriously, afterall if i really want to be a web developer, surely i should have the best of both worlds right?
there is a fine line to balance, between logical thinking/programming and creativity. and i believe i'd always been self-admittedly, a jack of all trades but master of none. i know a little bit of every other thing, but not very in-depth views on any of them. the time has come, to venture deeper. one by one i wish to slowly explore each skill i have acquired. photoshop? i barely understand the tip of the iceberg. flash? i have not much clue about actionscripting. you get the idea. the intention is to have a graph chart of sorts, where the various columns are the skills, and i wish to bring them up a high level *eventually* bit by bit.
got myself a DeviantArt account and throwing my stuff there. now of course my works aren't all that fantastic, but my aim is to get comments from the people who might come across what i've done and give comments on them so i can improve upon it. yes that includes the drawing i made which jason commented on being an orang utan...
about today... i slept 6am, woke 12noon(to the ringing of the phone, of which there was nobody on the other end) and proceeded to read up tutorials for photoshop and stuff online. having some sort of diarrhoea earlier on(i'd attribute to the dry mee i ate previous night) then i'm still coughing quite badly. taking strepsils for it. and drowning myself with water(erm inside, not out) to soothe the agony. tummy's been making funny noises all day.
and to top it all off i'm actually alone today. when i slept at 6am, jason was just leaving for his camp thingy. he'll be back come monday evening(that's what he said) so that means i'll be alone for another night at least. *COUGH LOUDLY* it's not very nice. but it's dry. nothing phlegmy coming out(i shan't go into details). and i didn't have much appetite for the coughs and sniffles.
my parents were on webcam with me in the afternoon. i told them about me being sick and nobody around. then they started blah-ing about me not taking care of myself, a whole bunch of I-told-you-so's plus the usual nagging. that makes me feel ironic inside. on one hand i miss seeing them and everyone at home. on the other, them being able to nag at me even while i'm here makes me want to toss technology out the window. what else could i do but simply acknowledge their naggings and inane queries. oh yes i am so disrespectful aren't i? i shall try not to get too miffed at their showers of concern.
*i really love her very much*
