A New Post in A Long While

Okay so . . . heh it's been awhile since I posted anything. Sorry I've been really busy these last few days. Well not 'really' busy. More like 'distracted'. Haha yeah 'distracted' *winks*

Anyway it's the school holidays. The third day actually. Wow it's been THREE days already?! Huh time sure flies when you're doing nothing. Seriously. Lol

But even though you may called it a 'holiday' but to me . . . it's just a SMALL break from school. We were still assign some work to do over the time we are relaxing 'away' from school. And when I mean 'some' work, I mean a HELL LOT of work. How can I feel 'relaxed' AWAY from SCHOOL when they give so much SCHOOLwork? It doesn't make any sense. We might as well go to school. Heck we might even get LESS WORk if we were IN school than AWAY.

Haha sorry got carried away. I guess it shows that I still don't like school. Ashamed to admit it but I do. It's not that I hate the idea of going to school. It's just that I HATE schoolwork. Okay maybe HATE is a strong word. I DISLIKE schoolwork. *grins*

Anyway I haven't done any of my assignments. I kinda have this tingling feeling that I won't be able to finish EVERYTHING even if I start NOW. I HOPE I can finish it all before school starts. I hate rushing. It makes me dizzy. Hahah

So . . . umm what else? Oh yeah there's this thing that my friend is making and that thing is t-shirts. It's for this special environmental club she's building/organising/making(?) at school. How cool is that huh?

. . . *silence* . . .

Okay . . . so she asked me if I could design a t-shirt logo for this club. Being the ever-sayer-of-yes I am, I said yes. Shocking. The reason I said yes was because I was bored. Now . . . I-I have the basic idea what I want to design. B-but I just don't know HOW to do it. Haha yeah I know. Lame. So anyone out there, in the wide wide world who is interested in helping me design the logo, that would really really be nice of you to do.

Heh I know what you might be thinking right now. I dug out my own grave. Why should you helped me get out of it. I know. I'm still figuring out what I'm supposed to do. I'm planning to make a really simple logo. I just want to put the word GREEN or something on the front of the t-shirt. Something short and simple. Nothing too fancy or hard. Actually I did made one. Except . . . well it wasn't . . . lets just say it wasn't looking nice. Haha I'm not a creative person. Haha

Anyway, ideas or concepts is much appreciated. Just put your creative ideas on my tagboard and just maybe, I'll pick yours. :P

Okay. That's about it. Right?

Wait. Almost forgot. Two more things. Yeah I haven't posted anything in a long while so . . . Sorry if this post seems to dragged on and on and on . . . Coz it'll dragged on ALOT MORE. *evil laugh*

So first thing, I made this really cool birthday gift for my friend about two weeks ago. You know usually people give birthday cards or presents or something birthday-ey for their friends' birthday right? Well I made a BIRTHDAY BOOK! YEAH! Haha I hate to repeat myself but . . . yeah. Lame. Haha

I would love to post some pics of the birthday book but the ones I took are really really really bad. To the max. Like totally. It was all unfocused and blurry and it looked more like a big purple blob than a book. Sorry. Hehe but I'll post some anyway. I also made a black origami rose for her so that's good right? Don't ask me why I made a black one. She wanted it to be black so . . . what a guy can do right?

I did NOT purposely blurred the image ok? It was already like that when I took it. Hehe

That's my name. DJimSD if you can't see it properly. :P

And here's the rose that I made. It's okay. I could have done better.

Speaking of black, did you know a black rose symbolize 'death', 'depression', 'darkness', etc? Well I guess you could guess that from the colour black. It's interesting how black roses are really popular around emos or goths or even for some people who don't fall into the previous two categories but black roses doesn't actually exist. At least, not in this world. Heck I've never even seen ANY black flower before. Do they exist? What do you think? Anyway in the case of roses, the only colour they don't have is blue and black. How I know, you ask? I google'd it.

*sigh* Google is an amazing thing. Haha getting off-tracked again. I was looking for the meaning of flowers one fateful afternoon and I just so happened to stumble to this website . . . florapedia I think . . . and it's an interesting site. It listed birth flowers, month flowers, meanings of different flowers, meanings of the colours of the flowers . . . They were really interesting facts to know.

Since I was born in April, my flower is a daisy. Never wonder I always like daisies. Oops lol. But the thing is my zodiac sign flower, which is Aries btw, is a tulip. Weird, since I ALSO like tulips. Especially yellow ones. Oops. I really need to learn to keep my embarrassing secrets. Hehe :P

Anyway since I'm not doing anything right now, I'll tell you the meanings for my two flowers. I'm just gonna copy and paste here so . . . :P

Aries: March 21 - april 20

Zodiac Sign: Born under the symbol of the sure-footed ram, the Aries, a fire sign, is confident and fierce. Dynamic and full of contagious energy, those born under this zodiac sign are usually the ones who take the lead – quick to volunteer for adventure and preferring the road less traveled to previously charted territory.

Birth Sign Flower: Match the Aries enthusiasm and zeal with flowers the color of passion (romantic or otherwise) – like an anything-but-demure red tulip flower bouquet. Dazzling and full of energy, it’ll appeal to their love of bold gestures and their appreciation for the slightly unexpected.

April: Daisy

The month of April is represented by the daisy. Daisies have long been associated with innocence. The large vibrant blooms of the gerbera daisy have made it a favorite among flower lovers.

Ok so . . . Haha and then . . .

Oh yeah. About this new photo editing programme that I recently found and installed. It's called Comic LIfe. It's a really cool software by letting you put your pics into comic-style frames. It's kinda fun to do. But since I'm not THAT creative with these things and I don't know how to work all the functions that well yet so don't flame me, ok?

Anyway, I just played around with it and one word to describe it is that it is really 'flexible'. Since Comic Life used to be a mac only software, maybe that's why it was that flexible. Now they made one for windows too. I can show my talents for comic styling. (Or more LACK of :P)

Below is a few of those 'try'-s that I made. With titles and brief descriptions for each pics. Check it out and also give comments, ideas, etc. Anything. Just put your opinions in the tagboard. Maybe I can make a whole comic book using your ideas hehe so enjoy. And Bye. Also, let me know your ideas for the t-shirt logo making. It would really help. Okay bye.

Truth of Love : A True Story
About how love can overcome all life hardships. Distance, time, everything. The only thing that makes every breath worthwhile. You just have to have a little faith.

The Three Types of People in Real Life.
Here are the basic types of men in everyday life.

The Taker.
Someone who takes without regrets.
Someone who takes everything for granted.
Someone who takes other people's feelings into their own.
Someone who takes care of people who are hurt or in pain.
Someone who takes burdens from other people.
Someone who takes anything and everything, whether it may bring harm to themselves.
The Giver.
Someone who gives without reasons.
Someone who gives for others gains.
Someone who gives to help those in need.
Someone who gives just to be one with the world.
Someone who gives just for the sake of giving, even though they know they gain nothing.
Someone who gives anything and everything, in the hopes of gaining nothing and everything.
And also The IN Between Them. Or should I called, IBT.
Someone who is always around to help.
Someone who is always there to take or to give.
Someone who neither take or give for their own personal gains or goals
Someone who works behind the scenes, hidden from public eyes.
Someone who keeps the balance between the takers and the givers.
And someone who never ever leaves anything behind.
What type are you?
