I want a camera and a scanner. Period.

More!

Well, when I was still young, I used to doodle a lot, doodle equated to drawing. Sketching. A lot. But now, seems like the winds of time has eradicated and blown away my zest for the thing. But analyzing things, I really still have the passion, I just don’t have the time. Yeah yeah. We can always make time for such things but for hobbies, we have to allocate an even bigger time. It will not make things enjoyable if we have to hurry off and sketch the nose of some cartoon and say “I’ll finish the ears later..” or something. That would be realllllllll – Fun? Hobbies are to be equated to Fun. Who would have a hobby without enjoying it – right? Hobbies are not supposed to be there for the purpose of making money – but for the sheer feeling of enjoyment. To give you a sense of elation and happiness. To make you escape from the everyday turmoils of life. Just to … make you YOU.

I remember when I was still young, when I was still developing my skills, I had this idea of drawing my father. I always hanged out at my aunt’s store where my father sometimes managed, and so.. I got this piece of paper (thanks to the leftovers of cigarette packs – that shiny piece of paper part of the cigarette package, where the back part is “drawable”) and began to draw my father. I enjoyed it!!! My father’s assistant, ate angie, loved it. Then I was thinking – wow, I like this. Then I showed the image to my father. Then I saw his face convult into an image of – remember when that guy from the Sleepwalkers movie change into that cat look? His face transformed into that – and he told me he looked like a horse  (a horse! come on papa, that image was made out of love and passion!!!) in my masterpiece. Wow. I really was – bummed. Imagine, a horse. A horse of all things!!! OK. So then I threw the piece of paper and forgot my “talent” in drawing faces. I should stick with harmless cartooning. LOL.

About the camera – I just want to brighten this blog up. I wanted to show what I see – but then due to the incapability of my monthly salary to stay in my personal pocket, I just can’t afford one right now. So I should stick with cigarette papers and pencils. But then where’s the scanner? ^_^ I should lay off my “talent” for a while.
