When you have done your best.
When you have give your 100%
Yet, things doesn’t turn out the way it should.
May 2005
I take three deep breaths and repeat to myself, “Everything’s going to be okay… everything’s going to be okay… everything’s going to be okay.”
Yeah… everything will be fine.
Will it really? I’m not sure. I still have my doubts.
But that’s what I always tell myself to keep myself going.
No one knows for sure.
No one can predict what lies ahead or if things will turn out well; the future remains a mystery.
I’ve always loved marshmallows, and always will.
Today, Stella brought over a marshmallow filled with strawberry jam. Yummy!
The photo doesn’t do it justice; it actually looks a bit like white poop.
That’s not meant as an insult—it’s just so cute, it’s almost too adorable to eat.
I rarely have dreams, and when I do, they’re usually pretty weird or not all that fun.
Most of the time, if someone asks me about my dreams, I don’t really have anything to say.
I just don’t seem to dream that often.
Sometimes I wonder if that’s normal, so now I’m curious to learn more about how dreams work.
Dreams are a communication of body, mind and spirit in a symbolic communicative environmental state of being. Different states of consciousness (like awake, asleep, alert, drowsy, excited, bored, concentrating or daydreaming) cause different brain wave activity. Our conscious mind, or the part we think with, our “window” into life, only takes up a very small portion of our brain activity. (some say this is only 10%) Other areas control things like breathing, heartbeat, converting light to vision, sound to hearing, balance when we walk, etc. etc. This too has its own percentage (small). Another area controls imagination. This area is widely an undiscovered frontier. Imagination is more than dreaming of a new car or picturing someone with their clothes off! When you look at clouds and see shapes, or wood grain and see images, this is the “order from chaos” part of your imagination. The mind cannot deal with chaos very well; in fact, it will resist it and sometimes manufacture order. (very important to the dreaming process). This too occupies a small percentage of brain activity. Then there is memory. Memory is vast! And I believe it occupies more of the brains resources then most people believe.

Wow! There’s even a section on dream analysis.
I’m not sure how accurate it is, but I often dream about death.
According to that section, such dreams symbolize change.
You guys should check it out the Dream Analysis!
While I was checking out the website, I saw this awesome photo of the model.
She looked really pretty and classy.
Honestly, people always rave about how good-looking Marion is, but I just don’t see it.
I’m way more into Luciana Curtis. She’s just got that something!
Like I’ve said before, it’s pretty uncommon for guys and girls to totally agree on this stuff.

This is seriously one of the coolest figurines I wish I had.
Too bad I haven’t seen it anywhere in Malaysia.
Even if I did, I doubt I could afford it.
Ming at Comix Box designed the series, which has a distinctly avant-garde and gothic style.
I absolutely LOVE it.

The very first ILL figure, Ghostie comes with a little crow and is one whacked out looking little girl.

The second ILL Figure, Koalie, appears as though he’s taken a tumble from the eucalyptus tree more than once. This quirky-looking koala is accompanied by four tiny spider friends, each with a uniquely colored eye so you can easily tell them apart.

Next up is Mickie and Cheezie. This character has purple hair and loves playing dress-up with two buddies. The mice are pretty cute, with their underbites and lop-sided ears making them even more fun.

Here’s the fourth figure: Skullie Kid with his two cool cats. These three are nothing like your usual bunch. Skullie rocks some punk wristbands, a tough-looking shirt, and comes with a detachable backpack. Put the cats wherever you want, but honestly, they look awesome chilling on Skullie’s head!

Bowie is a bold girl who’s well protected, always accompanied by her bulldog who’s ready to defend her against any peddler or vandal who comes near.

Archbabie is a charming character known for a distinctive hairstyle and appealing attire. Accompanying him is Arbie, his adorable bulldog.
My colleague Keat tempted me with reviews and photos of the new Perodua MyVi.
It looks tiny, adorable, and totally suits me!
I’m still not sure which colour to choose.
Black or orange?

I’m still searching, but this cute one costs about RM45K to RM48K.
Why is it so expensive?
I might have to work pretty hard to pull this off.
Alright. It seems it’s time for me to put in more effort so I can one day own my little dream car.
Let’s get back to work.
Work and work harder!
I haven’t shared any digital artwork in a while.
I’ve just been busy and maybe a bit lazy.
I’ve been reminding myself to stay consistent and not slack off, but it seems I still struggle with discipline—seriously.
But I’m confident that one day I’ll overcome it.
It’s probably no secret that I’ve been really into cross stitch art lately, so I chose to make a piece featuring myself.

The next photo was one I found at random.
I can’t recall who it features or where I discovered it, but I love its vintage and charming vibe.
It feels like the perfect image to end the day.
