Longing 4 a HOLIDAY

Listening to "Kidnapping Sandy Claws": An inspiring stop motion by Tim Burton, "The Nighmare Christmas" soundtrack. Indeed, with a click on the mouse, nothing seems too impossible to search though! haha, love the way Burton's portrayed his story in a dark yet humorous and meaningful way!

After a year of working, i began to miss those days in the college, where we can have all the time we want to explore and fulfill our curiosity. I felt that working life is not what i really wanted: the deadlines, the last minutes "bulky" projects from my art director, and most of all ( i hate the most): the "routine" work: name cards designs, rubberstamps, bills etc (with a DEFAULT design, where u have no room to explore the creativity). I will rather refer myself as a graphic artist then a graphic designer. "Designs" are set the way it should be to suit the client's needs, or rather, the things i "design" are based on the "templates" given. Basically, my works are plainly COPY and PASTE, and "following" the idea from my art director. I began to doubt about my academic achivement after a four years degree in my university. I am currently underpay, and most of the time, my minds just fly around when im doing all these things, trying to "hypnotize" myself, HAHA. I try my best to do all the things right... as i don't like repititious things. Sometime it is hard, but i really have to thank God that i had run so far :) At least a year or two to get experience before i leave this company. Ahhh, mayb become a SOHO clan, where i can be more flexible and designing things that i like, and trying new things out.

Now i just want a good holiday where i can rest well, recharge myself and go on through this life journey.

Thank God for a bunch of unique friends from church to support each other and pray for each other. Life just needs to go on to fulfill His purpose. :)

2006 Visit

It sure is dusty in here. *cough* Just look at the habuk... >< *sneeze*
It was almost half a year i had never visited my blog, and i even need to resume my password just to get in here. What a shame. It's cold, and the rain just can't stop pouring out of my window. I just came back from church, and today was my very first day joining the music ministry practice. The people were so good, especially with the "acapela" (gosh, i donno how to spell it, but well...). I just can't catch up. (well duh, it was my first time here and yeah im an alto btw XD). Singing, is a part of worship where all of us haf to join. And i will be taking part in playing piano. Ive been thinking of serving for quite some time after a not so good but a "struggling" 2005, where i haf to work on sunday. Nevertheless, my spiritual life was in its winter season. It really makes me think at the end of the 2005 before reaching 2006, especially my relationship with God. It's been ups and down last year, where i was trying to avoid my self to get involve, or rather, being ignorance. Anyway, alot of things just happen, and it does affected my spiritual life a lot, especially my worklife, and yeah, my addiction towards online game...

Now, starting of 2006, i haf decided to make my life more meaningful, rather than staying in front of the comp 24/7. (From 8 to 5pm working hr in front of comp, than balik rumah, in front of comp again...). NO LIFE at all. Monday night, i will be having a meeting with teachers for my part time job, learning and upgrade my drawing and painting skills. Tuesday night, will be a Young Adult cell group. Wednesday night: music practice; Thursday night: basically free LOL: a little artwork to brush up my computer skills and uploaded to DA. Friday night: Prayer Meeting; Saturday night: teaching art; Sunday: rest & church!!!!! ^_^ Waalah, and holidays= movie days + shopping!!

All the best 2006! I wonder when will i update again ><
