A secret purchase

I bought something that I had wanted to buy for a long time. And for that, I've refused all outings tomorrow.

What is it?

Its sleek. Its (DAMN UNFORTUNATELY) bright orange. Its sexy. Its portable. There are no batteries involved. Some oil or lubrication might be needed from time to time. It tires me out when I use it. Its not the real thing, but I am happy with it for now.

Work: Perplexing Situation

Its perplexing.

Client demands changes at the last minute when I had made bookings for several people, places and timings. And at work, in the office, at 9 in the evening, I blew up when I read the email. I wasn't mad at them for demanding last minute changes. Hell is hell for a reason, whether is it Client Hell, Design Hell or good-o-plain Hell. I blew up because right now, I have no clue what to do. I am a sitting duck right now till they get back to me again. I can do nothing while the decisions they will make will affect alot of people. (around 10people) And this might soil the reputation of my company for those 10 people... And this industry is small. It was frustration at that point of time, then I realised there is really NOTHING I can do. So I calmed down alot. Alot.

And Now I am just perplexed. And worried for tomorrow.

Attached is a drawing done in 1 hour.

The raving continues...

Ohh... my gosh. You just won't believe the cravings I have for jelly donuts right now. Perhaps a little back story will suffice those who wonders why J.D held such high ratings for me.

Mamma, being diabetic since young, was never one to encourage me to take sweets. And understandably so. She's done the right thing all these years. So in a rare treat of the moment, she had, in my youth, bought me a donut, with sugar sprinkling and jelly-filled centre. And then after, no donuts ever satisfy me the way Jelly Donut did.

And years passed, and the memory of the taste sealed itself away. It was as though some higher forces of power had foreseen the disastrous future this memory of taste will cause, and had it sealed for the better of humanity. And yet, the little girl eating other donuts would not feel happy, and some distant memory of happiness nagged at her.

The little girl grew up. Unfortunately, to a below average looking girl. (not all tales are fairy tales)

And now under tremendous stress inflicted by her own need for perfection and the relentless self-blaming, the memory of the J.D. taste got unlocked. And the world felt her shuddering at the memory of the taste...


It's been 2 months and 5 days since I've been craving Jelly Donuts.


I WILL KILL TO HAVE SOME NOW.

A Good Question

Sensei Kenji asked a good question.

"Who Am I?" he questioned himself.

"Am I a animator?
Am I a father?
Am I a sinner
Am I just your average neighbourhood boy?"

And he sets off. Finding a new career path, a new lifestyle, staying away from animation, a passion that was set aside as he molds his future with firmer hands.

And I will await. Await the Sensei Kenji that will come back refreshed, bursting to the brim with creativity and animation ingenuity.

So as I wait for his answer to his question, I posted this question to myself.

"Who Am I?" Yunda questions herself.

And Yunda ponders thoughtfully, her brows creased with intensity. And her mouth parted...

"I am... the ONE WHOSE FEET IS FIRMLY PLANTED ON THE GROUND, WITH THE HEAD ABOVE THE CLOUDS, HEART IN THE RIGHT PLACE AND HANDS REACHING OUT FOR YOU!"



... I need to grow up. (I am ashamed)

Ode to Jelly Donut

Oh Jelly Donut Of Heavenly Taste,
How Art Thou Delude Humble One.
The Search for thou is like a Maze,
It must feel great when the search is done.

Yet Heaven mocks and demons chatter,
As my determination flatters...

"Where hath thy been? Its been years!"
As I scream and break down in tears.
Thy great pastry of flour and jelly.
Encounters with thou, I hath not many.

We hath met, but only once.
And when we did, angels danced.
Our lips touched and it burnt in my mind.
"Jelly Donuts! YOU I WILL FIND!"

_______________________________________________

All made up in 15 minutes. I really am craving some jelly donuts.

Trypophobia

Trypophobia... I have it.

I was surfing the web when I see it then regretfully barfed. Till now, the urge to barf is strong. And that is why i vomited during secondary school biology lesson. Over a picture of stomata openings on a leaf.

Hold on guys, I think i gotta....
