As you can see, I decided on the latter and he still looks to me... So I can tattoos can be nice sometimes. ;p Hope you all like it! All done in SAI Paint Tool, love my new toy, haha! XD<br />

I'm not sure when I'll get the chance to do that, which is why I decided to post the sketch first. I hope Pip likes it, not sure if she's seen it yet.

Anyway, I'm not the type to mope about since I'm too much of an optimist for that, hehe. I'm not saying the not-so-good things that happened weren't emotionally difficult to take but what good is it for me to ponder over them. The best thing to do is to look forward and have faith. I aim to achieve a lot this year. How best to start but with the typical new year resolutions (achievable ones!), haha.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Be punctual</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);"> and work smart<br />
</span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Achieve my target weight and get fit</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Brush up on all my foreign languages</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Work on at least one drawing a week</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Work on at least one manga per quarter</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Bake at least once a month</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Keep in touch with family and friends regularly</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Travel more</span><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 255, 204);">+ Get another qualification </span><br />
<br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">I think that's all. Some may be too insignificant to be called a resolution, but who cares. It's more of a reminder for me. XD<br />
</div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Anyway, hope everyone is having a brilliant start to the year! Take care and will update again soon...<br />

It's been a while, a lot's happened since the last time I posted on my blog, not all good but it's ok, we should just move on and learn from experience! Haha, ever the optimist!

I feel I'm now getting back on track, hehe!<br /></div><div style="text-align: right; font-weight: bold;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br />So to start off, here's my first artwork since the beginning of the year, really out of practice but no problem, practice makes perfect, after all! This is a Halloween fanart of one of my all-time favourite manga/anime, Skip Beat!, with one of </span><span style="font-weight: normal;">my all-time favourite pairing (KyoukoxRen), no less, hehe.

Trying to see if my will can fight against it with a bit of help from some meds, sigh... Anyway, a colleague of mine told me about this live concert by the Black-Eyed Peas (who happens to be one of my favourite music groups), really cheered me up during this miserable time.

I've been told that I actually don't have the flu or cold, something else is causing my postnasal drip to become overactive... allergens, most likely. Now the only thing to do is to perform an allergy test, but where to get one done? JPMC? I'll call tomorrow.<br /></div><div style="text-align: right; font-weight: bold;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: normal;"><br />Anyway, I've been told to rest, but how to rest when I'm coughing constantly to the point that none of my food is staying down and I'm getting bad nose bleeds (four today, last I counted!). Sorry, Aniki, the chocolate pudding didn't stay! :p Methinks I have to start taking mostly liquid food for a while. Argh! My wonderful Japonica rice! :(<br /></span><br /><span style="font-weight: normal;">Oh yeah, before I sign off, I just wanted to share the photos of my Aniki's wonderful wonderful cats, though my most favourite is <span style="font-weight: bold;">Shazam</span>!

It's terribly annoying especially during meetings, I have to step out every time I feel a coughing fit coming about! :( [sigh] Even so, I will not be discouraged, I'm resting lots this weekend, hope that will help. And fortunately, this week, Skip Beat chapter 155 is out, woo hoo! Below is this issue's cover page with Cain and Setsuka Hill (a.k.a. Ren and Kyoko), the killer brother and punky little sister! Why they act so close, I'm guessing it's because the role play is such that they're non-blood related siblings... maybe... Anyway, whatever it is, the pairing is tres hot, haha! XD Can't wait for the next installment on 20 April!!!<br /></div><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZRuVxREAi2yHsbMOBmVHtedWZoiAFWv1x0-mXk4Mi28QXxeJwWOJh1mXAUYeWAJCeaysJgVkZlXYDY5JdqryeveFpHRV-6gNuX6Za8yQG6jxTuzanLk5pAqvdnJUO4QJfeb78uVejBUmT/s1600/cover.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 364px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZRuVxREAi2yHsbMOBmVHtedWZoiAFWv1x0-mXk4Mi28QXxeJwWOJh1mXAUYeWAJCeaysJgVkZlXYDY5JdqryeveFpHRV-6gNuX6Za8yQG6jxTuzanLk5pAqvdnJUO4QJfeb78uVejBUmT/s400/cover.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5455932994334923954" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: right; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;">"Beginning is easy, continuing is hard."<br /><a href="http://www.ari-rin.com/">dr.rin | artist.mangaka</a></span></div>dr.rinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02502565578222023639noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909759675870993477.post-55984519558296599712010-03-28T18:27:00.004+08:002010-03-28T18:57:21.681+08:00The Way I Am...<div style="text-align: justify;">I can't believe this... I'm still sick, my bad cough is back! :( Seriously, I know what is wrong, but I don't know how to fix it... I'm doing everything my doctor told me to do... All I can do now is rest, but that's tough when one has to work, right?<br /><br />-sigh- Just wanted to whine a bit! Anyway, found a song that really cheered me up... It was sung by one of the contestants of American Idol (yes, shock horror, I do watch it, haha!) this year. It's a song by Ingrid Michaelson called "The Way I Am" - it's so sweet. You can watch it on <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJOzdLwvTHA">youtube</a>, and the lyrics are as follows:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center; color: rgb(255, 153, 255); font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">If you were falling, then I would catch you.<br />You need a light, I'd find a match.<br /><br />Cuz I love the way you say good morning.<br />And you take me the way I am.<br /><br />If you are chilly, here take my sweater.<br />Your head is aching, I'll make it better.<br /><br />Cuz I love the way you call me baby.<br />And you take me the way I am.<br /><br />I'd buy you Rogaine when you start losing all your hair.<br />Sew on patches to all you tear.<br /><br />Cuz I love you more than I could ever promise.<br />And you take me the way I am.<br />You take me the way I am.<br />You take me the way I am. </div></div><br /><div style="text-align: right; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;">"Beginning is easy, continuing is hard."<br /><a href="http://www.ari-rin.com/">dr.rin | artist.mangaka</a></span></div>dr.rinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02502565578222023639noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909759675870993477.post-3241003472653590432010-03-06T00:03:00.004+08:002010-03-06T00:17:20.597+08:00Punkfest?<div style="text-align: justify;">The latest chapter of Skip Beat! is tres cool... well, that's just my guess from "reading" the raws, haha!

What happened to my weekend??? I've actually got homework - can I claim for in lieu, I wonder... [sigh]<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Anyway, time for bed, early start tomorrow.

I think...<div style="text-align: justify;">I think I'm finally getting over this bout of sickness... though I had to visit the doctor TWICE! Once was last Saturday just before my trip to Singapore and the second was yesterday when I was due back at work. I was in no fit state to even drive so my parents drove me to see the doctor. She had to give me a med cert for this week to recuperate. The rest was much needed because now I'm feeling much better, yayyy! She prescribed me stronger meds compared to the previous ones, which I think did the trick as well. Sigh, this is the second time this year that I've been sick and it's only February!!!<br /><br />Anyway, being sick is totally boring and irritating, I am not the world's best patient, always whinging and grumbling. ;p So now that I'm feeling somewhat better but still on sick leave, I decided to do a drawing on the ol' tablet, to depict my woes of being sick as hell! As you can see below, the medicine I was given was YUC-KY! But of course, I had to keep taking it... ewww! And yes, my hair is as tousled and I'm always in my jammies - how to go out, I'm sick! :( Anyway, insyallah, I'll be better by next week and back to work for me! Wish me luck! xxx<br /><br /></div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTNhuE0MRBOkcskniQkZ5545zTRNzN3y-rNkv-qLNIQ4DMJmP1NkZo9_O5IbHL3aID188xIZHLvjBWLsiWn7VmDs9Kzh91Jza_0obXT-OoumsH5fapySPzsYmd_J7s3pRG13ifEoxhR2vm/s1600-h/sick-drrin2010.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTNhuE0MRBOkcskniQkZ5545zTRNzN3y-rNkv-qLNIQ4DMJmP1NkZo9_O5IbHL3aID188xIZHLvjBWLsiWn7VmDs9Kzh91Jza_0obXT-OoumsH5fapySPzsYmd_J7s3pRG13ifEoxhR2vm/s400/sick-drrin2010.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442149525492812914" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: right; font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;">"Beginning is easy, continuing is hard."<br /><a href="http://www.ari-rin.com/">dr.rin | artist.mangaka</a></span></div>dr.rinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02502565578222023639noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2909759675870993477.post-18530174975297487372010-02-19T15:33:00.005+08:002010-02-25T11:27:08.468+08:00Ich bin krank...<div style="text-align: justify;">German meaning <span style="font-weight: bold;">"I am sick..."</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">while on annual leave!</span> What bad luck!

Well, at least something made my day today - Skip Beat! chapter 153 is out already... but didn't the last chapter say that it'll be out on 20 Feb?! Ah well, I'm not complaining... and the chapter's all scanlated, happy days!

It was cool, I love mythological stuff, the effects were awesome, lots of familiar faces - I'd give it an 8.5!
