Sad Penguin

School sucks. It sucks so freaking much. Why did I choose a major where you are expected to spend at least 16 hours a day, 7 days a week, working on project after project? WHERE IS ALL MY SLEEP TIME?! WHERE IS ALL MY FREE TIME?! I need my dramas(and sleep)! But yea, I guess I won't be able to write the review for Divas in Distress. Not only do I not have the time write it, I have yet to find time to finish DID. I think I'm going to change majors....

Until next time, which would probably be around Thanksgiving, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

Hug? No Hug? OF COURSE HUG!

School has started, and I can barely keep up with it. It's quite sad that I don't have time to watch Divas in Distress. I'm so busy that I'm writing this while working on my models. Make one cut, type one sentence

I've been skimming through the recent episodes. The one scene that stands out the most/most memorable would be when Him hugged Mandy. So cute how he would grab her arms and wrap them around him and she would put them down, and this would go on and on. I was so happy they got together, but they didn't even last 1 episode! Sigh. I'll catch up on all the episodes when I have the time and then gush(hmm, don't think I've ever gushed about anything in my life) about Mandy/Him pairing.

Aww, SO CUTE!

Him Law is reading Harry Potter! Not like his character to read stuff like that. Can't really see it in this pic, but if you enlarge it, you can see the word "Potter" on the top of the left page and "Hagrid" on the top of the right page.

Until next time, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

Mandy/Him Law in Divas in Distress(巴不得媽媽…)

I thought I would have time to write a review for the first five episodes of Divas in Distress, but it turns out that I don't. Nor will I have time to write any review for the next month. So I am going to write the review on the whole series at the end. I apologize for making a promise that I cannot keep. To make it up to you guys, I painted a (bad) picture of Mandy and Him Law. Using Paint with a mouse is hard....

Until next time, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

"Other Me" (video diptych)

This is a video I made for class four months ago(you get to see how crappy my art is when it comes to people, haha). It is a diptych, where two art pieces, or in my case videos, are placed side by side. There is some interaction between them, like showing contrasts or similarities. For my video, I made my two "worlds" collide and have the characters in both interact.

Even though this was for my final, I didn't even start working on it until 3 days before it was due. Because of that, the sound and the ending could use some improvement. Anyways, I hope you all enjoy it.

I'll be back this weekend with my review for Divas in Distress. Until then, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

Divas in Distress(巴不得媽媽…) OTS

Really soothing theme song. I want the full version for my mp3... I think this is the first time I've seen an opening theme that didn't show any scenes from the drama. I don't know if I like that or not. But love Mandy and Him Law in the opening, they look so sweet. Looking forward to their scenes.

I might write a review for the first five episodes this weekend. I'm enjoying the first episode, so I guess it's off to a great start.

New Penguin Header :D

I guess I wasn't suppose to post something new until Monday after saying bye in my last post, but I couldn't help it. Haha.

Made myself a new header using Paint. It's actually quite hard to do this with only a mouse and no tablet. But for a piece done in 20min, I'm quite proud of it. Though I might just stick to technical drawings....it's a lot easier drafting floor plans than drawing art pieces.

Until next time, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

Divas in Distress Trailers

After seeing a great poster, I finally have a chance to see the promotion clips. AHHH I'M LOVING IT ALREADY! Even though I'm getting sick of the rich guy, poor girl scenarios, I'm actually really looking forward to the Mandy Wong/Him Law pairing. Seems like it's going to be a sad and depressing story, but they make such a cute couple, so who cares.

Can't wait for this to air! 8/27! JUST 2 MORE DAYS!!
Until then, PENGUIN WAVES BYE!

Divas in Distress

I've been watching TVB dramas for years, and the posters for most of them suck. Very plain and no thought seems to be put in to them. But this year, I found one that actually looks nice, Divas in Distress(巴不得媽媽...). Maybe if TVB can come up with posters like this more often, I wouldn't be skipping so many of them.

Teddy Bear

This is a comic I did for my 4D class in early February. It's about a human who wakes up as a teddy bear and tries to escape from the room, but most of my classmates thought it was an angry robotic teddy bear trying to wreck havoc on the world. Oh wells, ENJOY!

 

I used Comic Life for this, and either Photoshop or Paint (can't really remember). I tried to experiment with representing time (the falling off the bed on page 2 and the climbing up the door on page 3). I also had fun drawing in the expression on the otherwise cheerful bear. The photos came out a little yellow due to the lighting in the room, but it works with the "happy" environment. Overall I had a great time taking these shots at different angle and taking seemingly impossible shots.

Mini Houses

I have this interest in mini houses. Mini like so-mini-that-I-can-walk-across-the-whole-house-with-a-few-steps. Many that exist in urban areas are in Japan, but there is one that's close to home. A 10-foot wide house located in San Francisco, CA. Designed by an architect friend of one of my high school teacher, it is lies on a driveway between two houses.

Stuck between two normal sized houses.

Who wouldn't want a house that tiny? It doesn't take much to clean. And look how spacious these rooms are! Almost like a regular house. But why is there no TV?

Dining+Kitchen

Living Room

Bedroom

One day, I'm going to purchase a tiny plot of land and building a cute little house for myself. Until then, I'll just design mini houses that sit on imaginary plots of land. Oh how badly I want a mini house...

Welcome to My Igloo?

So I guess this is my first post. This probably is going to be a blog where I'm just going to be random. You can think of this as a giant wall inside my igloo where I would put random articles, posters, and whatever else I feel like taping up. Well, I guess I'll just share a pic of a penguin for now.

You have until Christmas to make this penguin happier. How? No idea. Guess that's something to figure out in the next 6 months.
