Dead Thoughts

@ It feels like all the ailments of summer are taking refuge in my damned body. For three days and counting I have fever, that means nausea and headache pounding my minute brain. I also have bad rhinitis attacks every now and then. And now I have stomach trouble. Thank god I don't have measles, chicken pox and mumps.


@ Speaking of mumps, I haven't caught the thing yet. And now that I'm waaay past puberty, I should be alamred and must take precautions. Scary thought, but I want to see little versions of me running around the house in the future. Damn.


@ Tomorrow is Fete de la Musique.


@ I'm getting sick of that song Sumusunod (I think) by those wretched twins. I keep on hearing ti everywhere I go. Damn.


@ I have accepted the fact that I'm not really much of a line artist. So for months I've been swiping artworks here and there for me to practice on. So now I'm beginning to see a probable career as a colorist. Or is it another shot in the dark?




Another artwork I swiped -this time from Wilson Tortosa- that I colored.

HASH(0x8a3f5d4)
Ghost or spirit: You are a lost soul. Very calm and
sweet, you are often the one who asks: What if?
With a clever mind, you want to explore the
world on a different level. Without the
answers, you aren't ready to move on. You are
most likely very creative and find yourself
thinking things through on a different level.

Nirvana
Grunge! You're all about the music and would even
turn your back on fame just to stay true to
your roots... You reached your high in the
early '90s, but you're still making some good
stuff! Keep rocking!
Vampire
You'd bite their neck and drain their blood! Why?
Because you're a vampire like me! Whats that?
You're not a vampire? Well here's your chance.


I am at home right now....

And I feel terribly sick.

From last night's shift where I only double jacked with the agents -Ethel and Jun- because there was a fever building in me. I threw up twice and now I'm worried because I had to be absent again. Worried because they might kick me out.

On the way home, I had to ride an FX. The driver can't seem to have enough of Bayani Agbayani and decided to play his Bayani album while I was in his vehicle. Believe me, there's nothing as nasty as being nauseous, having a headache and hearing Ocho-Ocho blare your eardrum and haunt your consciousness.

And then there's Fete dela Musique. I've been waiting for it for months. But now since I'm not feeling good, looks like I'll be missing out the event after all. Tsk.


The Filbar's comics competition will be ongoing until 2005. neoparadiso's joining and I'll be handling post-production (coloring and stuff). We're actually not focused on winning, but that doesn't stop us from doing our best. The thing is, we're just using it as a spring board to start up our longtime dream of opening a design studio of our own.

Next on our agenda will be shirts!

But first pagaling muna ako.


If, by some stroke of luck / caress of miracle, I get to attend the Fete de la Musique, here's my gameplan:

This means once I get there I'll be watching Rock bands, up until 9:00, where I have to sacrifice seeing the Dawn to see Cynthia Alexander. After that I'll be coming back to the Parking Lot Area to watch Dicta License and for more Rock. Here's the common dilemma for Fete attendees, two of your favorite bands are playing at separate stage.
