Motto on getting things done: 

YOU JUST DO

W.I.P.! (yes I totally need to fix that asap)

Currently working on... art for a game team in school!

I really need to buck up more on my 2D animation... but am 

neck deep in rigging Mr Pickles, my 3D car burglar. Extremely

painful process... 

Observe everything

All the time.

"And there are two answers to when an illustration is done; 

If it is for a client, then the illustration is done 

when the client says it is done.
 If the illustration is for me, then it is never done. 

Ever."

-Matthew Woodson

If half of what you said is true

And half of what I didn't do 

could be different, 

Would it make it better?

 If we forget the things we know. 

Would we have somewhere to go?

 The only way is down,

 I can see that now.

14 Ways to acquire knowledge

by James T. Mangan

1)  PRACTICE 

Consider the knowledge you already have — the things you really

 know you can do. They are the things you have done over and over; 

practiced them so often that they became second nature. Every normal

 person knows how to walk and talk. But he could never have acquired this 

knowledge without practice. For the young child can’t do the things that

 are easy to older people without first doing them over and over and over. 

[…]

 Most of us quit on the first or second attempt. But the man who is

 really going to be educated, who intends to know, is going to stay 

with it until it is done. Practice!

EDUCATION, n. 

That which discloses to the wise 

and disguises from the foolish

 their lack of understanding.

-The Devil's Dictionary, Ambrose Bierce

After all I am alive only by accident.

- Sylvia Plath

Tell the truth through whichever 

comes to hand — but tell it. 

Resign yourself to the lifelong sadness 

that comes from never ­being satisfied.

I TAK LAYAK TERIMA CINTA YOU

What doesn't kill you, makes you.

“People are often unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered: 

 Forgive them anyway. If you are kind, people may 

accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives: Be kind anyway. 

 If you are successful you will win some false friends 

and true enemies: Succeed anyway. If you are honest

 and frank people will try to cheat you: Be honest

 anyway. What you spend years building, someone 

could destroy overnight: Build anyway. 

If you find serenity and happiness, they 

may be jealous of you: Be happy anyway. The good 

you do today, will often be forgotten by tomorrow: 

 Do good anyway. Give the world the best you have, and it may 

never be enough: Give your best anyway. 

 You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and God.

 It was never between you and them anyway.” 

 -Mother Teresa

Shoelaces

I am connected to the very first man who ever tied his shoelaces together, to prevent his shoes from tumbling off his feet. In that same vein, I am connected to you.

You, who also know how to tie your own laces. 

We are not born with the knowledge of tying our shoelaces together. We must acquire this skill from someone before us, and he before him from he before him before him before him and before, who must have gained the gift of lacing from his father and his father from his father’s father’s father’s father and all the fathers from the definite number of fathers before him, from the very first son, who learnt from the one and only Grand Father of Shoelace Tying. He was a genius.

That is how I am related to you, a complete stranger. But by having  relations it would mean that we are no longer strangers to each other. Just as shoelaces hold our shoes together, the very notion of the motion of tying holds us, the whole world, together.

The only strangers left, or the strange estranged would have to be people who wear Crocs. These people do not know how to tie their shoelaces, because they do not have any.

Ne désespérez jamais. Faites infuser davantage.
