WARNING: this has nothing to do with art. but it has a lot to do with me. Don't think i didn't warn you..

After a natural high from this little project we set-up a week ago i have been feeling this melancholic breeze down my spine again. It seems the 2nd half of the year is fast approaching and i, your quirky 22 year old have been battling with weird demons this past few days. grr. This might be a monthly prerequisite for me though. Anyway i could count with one hand the number of months before December, and i've always dreaded that month. pft. I can smell it again and it makes me feel really uncomfortable. It doesn't help that it's almost a year since i last saw charles in person.

sigh.

It's a weird time for freelancing these days. so much things to do. so many job offers. so much pending work piled up. I should be happy. But right now i wish i could afford to go somewhere peaceful.

haha i'm a walking contradiction. when i'm idle i find something to do and when i have stuff to do, i want to escape.

haaym.

there's a brighter future ahead my friend Joey says.

i should really be happy.

hi charles, i really miss you.

life feels like a recipe book
There are recipes to sucess, to love, to valore, to security, to spirituality, to whatever
it has all the instructions and the ingredients to cook the perfect soup of possibilities
Patterned from professional chefs of life.
but sometimes its unavoidable to deviate from the directions
sometimes we don't have all the ingredients
sometimes we forget to buy salt.
sometimes we forget to put a little pepper.

or sometimes we just want it with a little more spice.

Right now i feel like cake.
and my feelings are half baked.

Inspiration

~paperdull — Tue, 03 Apr 2007 18:57:57 PDT

where are you?

---

pfft.
i don't need this right now.

---

So last night i stayed up until 1 listing down all the things i need to do.
I have so many payables.. gotta transfer money to this person, transfer to that.. pay this.. buy a new phone (bec i just lost one again). pfft
I have to collate all my receipts for the last 3 months for my taxes.
(yes i'm legal)
meep.
i gotta follow up on people for work..
and i have so many little errands..
sigh.

i sometimes wish there's a nagger institution that i need to answer to at the end of the day so i could just follow or rebel and still earn enough to do my creative projects..

the annoying thing is, i'm capable to do the art projects right now but there's just not enough fairy dust to make me fly and do it. It's the artist block i think.

and i only have myself to blame..

bwahahahaha emo. shit.

inspiration why did you abandon me..

sorry

~paperdull — Sun, 01 Apr 2007 01:52:50 PDT

~paperdull — Sun, 27 Aug 2006 23:02:38 PDT

for some weird reason my internet does not want to open my personal journal.. so here i'am cluttering your announcement board with my little world. I know it's an art community and i'm not one who post crap in journals that are meant to update people with their art life not life in general but here i'am because i just really needed to vent out to a world beyond my own. It has this tempting light i cannot veer away especially when i'm feeling down and nonessential in this big spectrum of things.. so i'm venting out, like a wild dog howling on the cliff of a mountain, unmindful of who's listening, who's getting bothered, who;s sympathizing to this cry of satisfying remorse. A big sigh and a shout out for anyone who can spare me a hug.. a friend, a stranger, a lost, tired soul such i'am now is welcome to join this group hug I'd like to call support.

boo.

monday has this effect on me.. i'm a cocoon trying to be a butterfly.
wt.. i can write for an emo band now.

it's a pendulum of moods.

i'am getting stagnant i'm sorry, i've not posted anything here in a week.

hmmm i've been missing local events this past weeks because of work in general, i guess no change of environment

amuse me life.

hehe

website and some stuff

~paperdull — Thu, 15 Jun 2006 09:21:26 PDT

Hi everyone! My website will be up by next week. i hope. It's already with the dude who's gonna encode so I hope you guys can go visit by the time it finishes next week!

I haven't been updating lately because of work. If you guys must know, I'm a self-proclaimed interior designer too and i'm working on two projects now simultaneously. I design rooms with my graphics! here's my temporary site for that: [link] and boy it's been hectic because i'm also doing graphics for my brother's [link] full length movie that you guys have to watch out for, here's the trailer: [link] because talented people are working hard for this

also, this school year is going to be one crazy year because of thesis, work, thesis, work, movie, art, and some otherrrr stufff hee heee..

July is going to be insane because they're going to announce the winner for the Graphic Novel i joined in with [link] -->them and i sure hope we win.. waaah :/ Neil Gaiman's going to judge it so i hope he picks up our stuff. blah..

sigh,

anyhow, that's it for now

today

~paperdull — Fri, 09 Jun 2006 11:31:54 PDT

Today i transfered to my new room which is totally white. The walls are like blank sheets of paper waiting to be drawn on heheh Maybe all artists get this urge, well i guess every person gets the urge to draw on something so pure and plain heheh but i think maybe that's just me and some other people like me. oh well, what am i saying? I believe everyone of us went through this stage where we like drawing on walls as kids, but as time goes by and with grown ups restricting some of us we lose that freedom to express on walls like blank sheets of paper.

Today also i transfered loads of drawings from gradeschool-highschool to my new room. I discovered how i've retained some of the elements i use in my past drawings to my present ones. I can post it here if you guys are interested.

blah, i've thought of a concept for a story book about empty plain walls,grown ups and resolutions on new years. resolutions is like a piece of paper, empty waiting to be filled out with drawings of one's life- flaws and beauty combined. blah again, methinks.. hannah is trying to be profound o__O i think i ought to do this visually than write it down because i'm so inarticulate.. sigh.

heh randomness

g'morning/gnight everyone hehe it's 2:28

lusting for a way out

~paperdull — Sun, 04 Jun 2006 21:28:19 PDT

Right now, i'm in a limbo. My thoughts are contradicting to my beliefs by living vicariously to people who lives exactly how i want to live my life at a certain period of time. For instance now, i've embodied a sucessful executive creative director who jumps from one continent to another in a span of one week. He gets sponsored to stay in first class hotels and yet he still have the angst to write substantial rants on his journal [link] sometimes to even lash out at the very core of his lifestyle which is advertising. My oh my, i miss listening to this guy, he was my professor for a semester in fine arts and i've forgotten how shiney advertising appealed to me because of him. I remember he kept calling me "Oprah" because i kept relating the subject matter to moral issues. eww me, i know. He's the very reason i got my taste of the corporate world at its best, giving my number to another executive creative director who was one of my panelist in my thesis in his subject. I had the most fun time i think, from all of my batchmates staying with the advertising firm he referred me to. I will not forget his elquent geekiness. He can articulate the most complex things in such simple terms that a layman like me could comprehend. He was really shaped to persuade.

sigh.

It's weird, i see this in people in the advertising world, i see the smartest people there and yet when i read their entries in their personal journal the glitz, the glamour, the money would all boil down to yearning for something that would make em' feel something. It is them who makes the image of anything anyway, we all make an image of ourselves anyway, we are our own advertisers and somehow a glitch in the matrix would make us feel different about the image we made ourselves to be and we get lost or unsure of the path we chose.

blah, i feel in my state of conciousness the most practical way to live a life of leisure is to jump into advertising because its the most convenient and high paying job waiting for me out there (at least here in the Phil). I would love to jump from one country to another for business, i would want to make something creative that can help my poor third world country a better place (even for stylish,smart people to live in), but to do this one needs to be practical, one needs to eat, one needs money to be able to invest on things that would free him/her from the emotional guilt he gets from the day job.

ok i stop.. this is entry is weird sorry -__-

oh so happppy

~paperdull — Sun, 28 May 2006 09:05:35 PDT

hehe i'm posting randomness so my last entry wouldn't take too much space in my profile

hehe

xhannah

on to advertising

~paperdull — Sun, 14 May 2006 18:26:29 PDT

happy today mum's day was fun, my obligatory church attendance was worth it

on a side note, my brothers have been talking about advertising world earlier in the van on the way down from my folks house and it dawn on me how i wouldn't be able to take it.. tho i had fun with Y and R Philippines as an inturn for two months, my two brothers who are the so called suppliers in the world of advertising seems to have change my views in going into advertising entirely. I'm already scared before but my eavesdropping from their conversation terrified me even more. I remember joey telling me that advertising can eat your soul up, that's why the artists sacrifice their creative juices to make a living and find other outlets for their self gratification (redemption too i suppose). I remember my adopted-dad in Y and R, Fabo.. a very talented man, only he's not reknowned for it because of work. My brother avid says that most advertising agencies doesn't pay back the talents they use for their award winning campaigns as much as they deserve to, which sucks because most of the suppliers; be it the photographers, directors that really earn from ad agencies are the one's who does all the boring stuff for big campaigns. There's already a staple choice of professionals who works over and over for these ad agencies and earn triple the amount compared to their collegues. It's a sad system, those with exquisite talents are used for small but promising campaigns that garner the company awards (because it's the art director who picks their people) and usually does it for pro bono, while the branded suppliers win the big campaigns that pays more (because the accounts department people makes the choice) and it's usually the safe, tried and tested one's who gets picked.. and most of the time they don't bother picking a new supplier at all.. which is practical in some ways, but still... there's so much talent in the friggen world!!!

gah.

sorry i know i'm sounding like an idealistic little brat, my brother was actually coaxing my other brother about cutting the demand for the top supplier in the country and getting into the game to have other alternatives. Good thing my photographer brother are friends with the top supplier, he could easily get in if he choose to. THe money is good and it's a low brainer ( a few shots of the product here and there) making them easy bucks with a few headache-stricken meetings with the account executives but in the end he would have the money to finance the art projects he wants to do. It's a win win situation my other brother says. Same concept as my friends from the ad agency lives by..

with all that said, i'm happy i dind't graduate this year and got delayed. I would have jumped into the caravan and would not be able to explore my options and not have a wider grasp of the said number one job in my line of work. I can sell myself to the man in times of survival i suppose (I'am being realistic), but i don't think i can actually work there on a regular basis. I remember asking the question to Ma'am Emily Abrerra (one of the top ecd of Maccan philippines) in one ot the ad seminars i attended, "Ma'am do you get guilty for selling things that you don't believe in, and at some point makes the poor man even poorer?" and she replied in split second "we compensate through other things, and i don't sell things that i don't believe in, we're merely doing our job, inserting values in the commercials we make" ~ or at least that's what i remember of what she said. But i don't blame her, she's the person who's in advertising for the love of the craft and not for the money (well of course partly that's the reason i don't know). Gawd knows how exhilarating it is to make a great idea out of something so boring like instant soup, or powder, or beverage.

so uh.. my point is? hehe.. i'm getting tired of ranting... to me all the unfair things in the world leaves you confused and dumbfounded after trying to comprehend it ... o__o advertising is somewhat evil, but without evil there wouldn't be good and vice versa. In the end we are left to our own choices and that's how the world works..... yai lets all be neutral!!

gah.

little update

~paperdull — Tue, 02 May 2006 04:26:26 PDT

Laziness

~paperdull — Tue, 07 Mar 2006 09:15:44 PST

I just got home from Singapore and well i've been sleeping a lot lately.

I've got new works now and has notbooks printed on cavas and bookbind by the nice tribe of Hannahlulu, Hannanesia. It's on sale at my friend's shop in Singapore called "Gooodness.com" (visit the site www.gooodness.com) in Boat Quay near the Parliament house. SO if any of you wants to acquire nice notebooks with premium quality paper just go there if your around the area. They have nice selection of clothes too!

So anyhow, going back to laziness.. My online life isn't as active as it use to be. My deviantart is cluttered with updates from my watchlist and misc messages but i seldom update it. hnh.

I have an upcoming group exhibit with 8 filipinas composed of artists,photographers, documentarist and others i don't remember being held at gallery Y in Megamall, Philippines on the 14th. It's under my mom's supervision so don't think i'm so good or anything.. I still think i'm an amateaur, my mom's just bias! ehe

so anyhow, go there, Ms Cynthia Alexandre is one of the exhibitionist. She'll be singing too..

---

um going back to being lazy again.

I'm just frustrated right now because i can't seem to organize my stuff.

my website, this place, my business.. etc.

but maybe that's not being lazy.. maybe it's the lack of time afterall!

oh well,

hannah

More art soon! :D

~paperdull — Fri, 27 Jan 2006 04:30:04 PST

Oh yeah! I finally got broadband now.. finally civilization!!

wait for past and new artworks to be posted soon hahaha
i'm just happy that sharing my art here wouldn't be such a big fuss..

that's it for now,

cheers!
