im just making and excuse to write something LOL.

Anyways. I'll just be short on this for now.

================ONE BIG HOUSE indie comic.======================

*what has happened?, where did it go?, was i able to finish it?*

First of all, i was able to finish it... but sadly, not on time *curse them lame ass scanners*
so no KOMIKON 2007 debut for me. ... you can check them out here on my multiply.[link]

These pages arent final and i have the urge to clean it up and improving the storyline (and maybe adding the PART2) till the KOMIKON 2008 event. so i have the whole time for myself .

=============OLLY: obsession is an understatement=================

After OBH, one of me buddy's proposed to me a script for his Indie project and told me i should illustrate it. the title of the comic is POLLY, and its based on the NIRVANA song with the same name. Further details here [link]

our plan is to be able to release this in the same time with my OHB comic at next years KOMIKON or rather develop it into a web graphic novel. some what similar to DAN KIM's PAPER ELEVEN fame [link]

and speaking of which, we might be also putting up another multiply page for some of our "everyday life" comics (strips that expresses our misfortunes of being the underclass college dudes... teehee).

thats it for now... ciao

Now black sabbath's playing all over my head

What i really want is to do more traditional sHYETS... but all those work from class....LAYOUTS LAYOUTS LAYOUTS CONCEPTS CONCEPTS CONCPTS PRODUCTS PRUDUCTS PROOOOOODUCTS PHOTOSHOP PRINT PHOTOSHOP PHOTOSHOP aaauughhhh...
Why the hell did i end up in advertising anyway? Im already at my third year and im brain dead most of the time. My great ideas (or ideas at least, for the sake of meeting the deadline) usually pops out ON THE LAST MINUTE DEADLINE and in the end telling myself "I couldve done that"...

Now im up, online, ranting, while im suppose to be working on more advertisements..... sigh..... fuckit, im going to bed..

Before that, if your interested on Graphic Novels try reading some of these at [link]

while no one’s looking of course. This happens either when its sweeping time around the apartment or just bored out of my mind. I just pop-up my winamp and play songs randomly till some of these song make me gyrate like a mo’fo///


10. Uncle Cracker – Follow me
- Well, I don’t actually dance around on this one. Just a little sway to the left and the right… just to keep the old country tune in tact.


9. Jimi Hendrix – Foxey lady
- I’d do my Garth impression of WAYNE’s WORLD where he tries to hit on the hot blonde girl


8. Maroon5 – Makes me wonder
- very classy… too bad I don’t have any


7. Fat Boy slim – Praise you
- Who wouldn’t forget what those dancers did in front of that theatre in the video?


6. Haddaway – What is love
- Ever watched SNL’s skit NIGHT AT THE ROXBURY ?No matter how many times it’s played, its so fuggin addictive.

5. Dead or Alive – You spin me right round
- 1st seen at THE WEDDING SINGER. Very catchy. Goes well if you wanna go stripper-bob (males only…


4. Stevie Nicks – Edge of seventeen
- I’d do my best Jack Black impression just like what he did on school of rock..LOL


3.Korn – Word up
- reminds me of that short scene where Steve carell does karaoke on 40-year-old virgin


2.Justin Timberlake – My love
~ Makes me go SEXY TIME!


1.Queen – Killer queen
~ My Guiltiest Pleasure yet. Hell, I’ve even completed a dance move for this… Musical Style (No, not like HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL)

YAY FOR RAIN!

THINGS PONDERING ON:
- THE FLASH's powers
can you say that everything slows down (in his own point of view...)
everytime he runs really fast? Trivia says he can accelerate his molecules really fast and,accroding to Einstines theory of motion,(...or on what you see on the film CLOCKSTOPPERS) everything might seem to have stood still... what do you guys think?
BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING (IF EVER...)

-BATMAN: THE KILLING JOKE
written by Alan moore
The plot revolves around a largely psychological battle between Batman and his longtime foe, the Joker, who has escaped from Arkham Asylum. The Joker intends to drive James Gordon, the Police Commissioner of Gotham City, insane, in order to prove that the most upstanding citizen is capable of going mad after having "one bad day." Along the way, the Joker has flashbacks to his early life, gradually explaining his origin.

"The Joker's underlying motive is to illustrate the inherent insanity of Batman's mission: dressing up as a bat to fight criminals."
Isnt that right? Maybe all those heroes are just as insane as the rest of them... Heroes claiming to fight for justice and all ressed up as an animal or an insect. This reminds me on the setting another work of Alan moore. THE WATHCMEN. where a character, named COMEDIAN (joker=comedian...get it?), gets into depression and rants that everything on what they're (the superheroes) doing and the entire society is just one big joke...

comics nowadays (the Dark age) are
going into very realistic themes ,Racial differences, Human rights, war, policital issues... you name it.

SUGGEST READING:
-The Watchmen



- PAUL COELHO's the Alchemist
I couldnt help but find the book's hero...uhmmm...naive?
i dunno, everything works well on him... and the part on becoming the wind... he's one lucky guy.

"Controlled Luck"
The theme of controlled luck is prominent in this book, as the old king and the alchemist both tell Santiago about how if one really wants to fulfill his/her Personal Legend, the whole universe will conspire to help make it happen. Coelho refers to this as the idea of "beginner's luck", or the concept of favorability. Santiago is blessed with beginner's luck, when he decides to go to Africa. He manages to sell all of his sheep very easily, and is given "a taste of success" that whets the appetite to fulfill one's Personal Legend.
[link]

so yes, following dreams is the message... but i feel that it always lean on the bright side of it hence the touch of realism on it... but heck, its a fiction book. It reached on to me one way or another LOL

i wonder if the hero on the book thought about "Ahh, Screw my dream, I'll just hang out w/ my sheep" ? hmmm

next read, THE WITCH OF PRTOBELLO and VERONICA WANTS TO DIE



-STEPHEN KING's EVERYTHING's EVENTUAL
King's short stories are cool, they leave you cowering under your blankets at night...wetting yourself...
Suggest reading:
-The Man in the Black Suit (Pretty scary stuff!)
-1408 (out on cinemas!)

in continuation of disbelief w/ a deeper sense of reflection and warnings that shouldnt be taken lightly by [link]

So how did i get in the first place?
and blackmailed me into coming w/ them (hey, what are friends are for?) LOL....

Well, it wasnt actually the idea (a little booze, fishing *not that kind of fishing*....but thanks to the rest of the guys who tagged along... LIPAD 150 LIPAD.

so there i was, drinking my ass of w/ a bottle of REDHORSE BEER while formulating the patterns of the laser lights,
financially able people dancing to the various club remixes OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I stopped whining for a few minutes when my eyes finally adjusted to the strob lights to stare on the beauties of Highclass nightlife........ damn....

an hour or 2 had passed and i found myself on the dancefloor. (im a terrible dancer, but hey, you only live once...), mimicking moves of what i usually see on this generation's TV.but mostly some Heavy-metal-power-stance-supreme-headbangin'-moshpit w/ ( can't help it, i sold my soul to rock n roll)
w/c obviously, make me look like an idiot....

i finally came to my senses and quietley returned to a little corner drinking someone elses beer (gross, but wtf, its alchohol)....and devilishly stare on them hunny's... (Ampf, i just sed huinnies)...

Thank God finally called it a night...and gladly left this place back to where hell that felt like heaven... Crib....

In the end, i somehow swore to never drink again (the 3rd time...long story...) forget that Clubbing ever existed....

Clubbing sucks... Bar's Kick ass more...

Peace, love and rock and roll

its trance when the raindrops pours gently on the roof?
w/ hot coffee and warm blankets?
and when it pours harder that there'd be a chance for classes being suspended?

have you ever felt like somthing's out there when the worlds suddenly stands still and watch?
like some mystic being crossing between the worlds?
when you look outside, the gray one makes you realize something about life?

have you ever felt care free dancing around it not giving a crap of
shitload of tiny parasites lurking on the puddles and stuff?
have you felt depressed when you cant fkeep yourself dry and warm and that you have to suffocat in a tiny corner that smelled like someones pee?
have you felt sorry for those kinds of people?

but then, all in all, i kinda liked it...

nowadays a lot of US animation adopted the anime style of rendering characters. nowadays, im like... hmmm since i havent seem any good Jap anime's lately... could it be that the west would finally claimed this as their own?

iits not that i ignore thier effort but the west are always so streotypical when "animeing" their toons...like when you say anime to them theyd reply "goofy expressions, martial arts, fireballs, etc."
and toons like. TEEN TITANS, TOTALLY SPIES, MARTIN MYSTERY (teen titans were half good on my ratings coz hell, i love the titans... its just the overuse of japanese expressions that disgusts me..) were labeled as wannabe's for that reason.

But i gotta hand it to those artist here in DA doing westernized anime styles... "salute"... because their color schemes are waay cool...

now ive watched american cartoons since i was still in diapers and it was highschool when i was first introduced into anime... so much mof my drawing style is clearly western style but i still draw some anime's for two reason or more
which are:
- im asian, its in my blood...
- Drawing women in anime is much easier...haha
and like most of us, there is always the attempt in combing both styles together (para maiba naman daw..)

looking back, sometimes i just wish the west would bring back those days where the lion king won an oscar... well its not that they should stop trying anime, its just that theyve made great cartoons in the past w/ thier own style so why go on anime?

". i want to take a responsibility, and yet i guess im just afraid... heck, maybe im always afraid... hmm, this shouldnt be like this... sigh.
yosh, so i guess i have to prove my worth for the next sem... because HELLS YEAH, im getting a baaaad feeling about the next sem ..

hmm, i remember a line from a tv series that one prof said something about college is "not about passing and stuff, Its about failing and getting back up again because there you get to be someone better".. now dont fuss over that you wussies, the point is...(from my opinion) this is a part of life where failing is something that happens all the time, but the real challenge is getting back up...

"everyone learns faster on fire"
- ALKALINE TRIO, BURN

heck, here i go again getting all preachy, but i hope it can also serve as an inspiration to others to... especially to the ones i know here at the DA... k? so here i am, typing crap about tv and college... now you do the math....

Asking nothing, leave me be
Taking everything in my stride
Don't need reason, don't need rhyme
Ain't nothing I would rather do
Going down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too

I'm on the highway to hell

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me round
Hey Satan, payin' my dues
Playing in a rocking band
Hey Momma, look at me
I'm on my way to the promised land

I'm on the highway to hell
(Don't stop me)

And I'm going down, all the way down ]]> ~xcortex http://xcortex.deviantart.com/journal/10064216/ http://xcortex.deviantart.com/journal/10064216/ Wed, 13 Sep 2006 19:36:15 PDT dwahaha. im giving it 6 out of Friggen 5 in my ratings
