Welcome Back, College Life!

Hello!

My super-duper-long holiday will be over very soon. Yes, I'm going back to college life tomorrow morning. It is time to say hello to so-called daily college routines. Time to say  "Hey, see you, later!" to loads of comics or DVDs. No more sleeping all day long, or doing things I like whenever I want. You're asking me what I'm feeling right now, no? The answer is, frankly, I'm feeling awkward. Exactly, the feeling between excited and sad. Nevertheless, I realize that this is what we call "life". There are times when we have to move our ass out of our comfort zones, right? Unless we want our lives to be something very very flat. You know, it's like, life will lose its meaning if we get stuck up in comfort zones.

Speaking of which, this long holiday has caused some impacts on myself, especially my brain (exaggerated) haha. But yeah, I often analogize the brain as a knife or a blade. If the knife is not sharpened frequently, it will dull. And I don't want that to happen to my brain, of course. Well, I hope everything's gonna be back to normal as soon as I set my feet on the floor of the college building.

Good night, Mates! :)

Deoxyribonucleic Acid

This drawing is inspired by a song from Darwin Deez, DNA.

"My DNA is running out,

I am not the guy who makes you smile now...

And when we talk, it's not the same,

but I already lost the gene for feeling pain..."

Pick Your Color!

It's always your choice to be colorful or not.

Sebuah kalimat yang terpampang pada sebuah halaman website betul-betul membuat saya lega. 

"Selamat, Anda diterima di Universitas Indonesia."

For all You have given. For all You have permitted. I thank You, Dear God. :)

Kamu Melulu

Untuk kamu.

Butterflies in My Tummy

I have butterflies flying

around inside my tummy

when I’m with you

I hear bellchimes ringing

blown by wind of spring

when I’m with you

Oh, this tingling feeling

makes me wanna jump

makes me wanna shout

across the room

Oh, this feeling of longing

but damn it’s so blinding

I just can’t tell

if I feel happy or sad

I hear blue birds

singing up around the tree

when I’m with you

I see rainbows appearing

everywhere I go

when I’m with you

Oh, this tingling feeling

makes me wanna sigh

makes me wanna fly

across the moon

Oh, this feeling of longing

but damn it’s so blinding

I just can’t tell
if I feel happy or sad

I have butterflies flying

around inside my tummy

when I’m with you....

I listen to this song over and over again.

The song is devastatingly sweet. I really mean it. :)
For everyone who's falling in love:

'Butterflies in My Tummy' by my favorite local band, Mocca. 

Yippie-kay-yay!

Thanks a bunch to the warm-hearted guy who gave me a new watercolor set on April 6th. :3

Happy, happy, finally my brush set met its partner. Hohoho...

Anyhow, I promise myself not to open the package until April 17th, or else I will spend a lot of time painting (okay this may sound rather hyperbolic; as if I were good at painting, whereas the fact is I'm not, hahaha!) and forget my plan to focus on one-very-important thing. :)

First Post of This Month

Holla, back! Curcol dikit, ah. Hehe...
Well, I'm not that good at digital drawing nor editing.
I only understand Photoshop basics, hence I always choose to use Adobe Photoshop to digitally color my drawings instead of other softwares. That's the only choice I have!
Sotosop CS2. Haha.
Yes yes yes, I'm an old-fashioned one.
By the way, I just uploaded another drawing. Kinda late actually, here it is.

You Are What You Wear
