How I did it: I just used the Naruto pics I saved from the net as my basis for drawing. I opened some image files I really liked (and of the characters I love), used my pencil (just one exam grade pencil), eraser and the drawing book I had here. I started drawing while looking at the image(s) in my laptop. Once I was quite satisfied I started shading using the same pencil... I used to have pencils of different shades to use but lost all of them when pe… Read how I did it…
How I did it: This programming project was passed to me by a friend. I had qualms taking this on as I had no background on the application being used. I do have a background on the coding language used. But I took this as a challenge and I started to learn how the application works. It was supposed to be finished early but a lot of features and enhancements were made than what was initially planned so it took quite a while to work on before I can say i… Read how I did it…
How I did it: At first I was kinda staring at my laptop blankly. I have a list of sections jotted down on my little notebook about what to include but when it came to design, I can'tfocus well. Let's just say that I was just doing random stuff with my image editor and then that was it. I decided I liked what I have came up with and used it. It's not much. It's quite simple really. I am, however, planning to upgrade it soon to flash or something else. I… Read how I did it…
Well, I’ve made two drawings but no Naruto yet. One for Uchiha Itachi and one for Yondaime Hokage. These are drawn using just plain drawing paper and a pencil.

Naruto, Kakashi and Gaara are up next. Will just have to rest my hand for a couple of days.
A couple of years ago, I jumped at the chance to get out of home for the very first time in my life. I didn’t care much if I had to work in a job that isn’t really my first choice so long as I can get out. For me, it meant freedom. Being able to do whatever it is I wanted to do without someone asking me what time I’d go home, nobody to remind me always… no more family complaints and arguments to listen to.
I had trouble adjusting at first. I was used to my mom waking me up every morning with my breakfast ready. Someone else will do my laundry, do the dishes, etc. When I left and stayed in a place with roommates and all, I had to do everything myself. I liked it. It felt like for the very first time in my life I was being independent.
Fast track to a couple of years, I actually got tired of all that. Well, not really. It’s my work I got tired of and I missed my family. So I went back temporarily at first. When my goals didn’t go well as planned I got stuck back here. At first it was good. But then the same old family issues I got tired of years ago is still here. People’s attitude are the same. I feel as if my energy is being drained. And I now feel I have to leave again or get my own place.
I just remembered that I probably can’t get a new place of my own as we assumed this house we are staying now under my name. Maybe I’ll just rent something or leave for another place again. Somewhere quite far so as to be away from these issues… get some peace and quiet. One thing is for sure, once I can pay all my remaining CC balances I’ll start planning for this. Maybe I’ll even start now…
I managed to have another installment paid off last month. One major installment will be paid by next month and two minor installments will be paid (hopefully) two months from now.
I gotta focus paying for these so that I can start to SAVE, SAVE and SAVE…
