Design draft

I have gotten my first cold of the year, and I'm almost back to health now. Not fun.

Today I've sketched together a design that I'm gonna work on. This is what it looks like so far:



Now the commissioner wants it to be a bit different, and I'm gonna edit it that way. Note that this is a picture, not a print-screen of the codes. I didn't bother trying to make anything proper image-wise since it's just a sketch.

I woke up early tonight and couldn't fall asleep again, so I did some picture editing for my friend, so that he can make a new blog design. I hope he's happy with what I did, but I won't know for a while since he's not online yet.

For the rest of the day I suppose a nice warm shower and some gameing training awaits me.

Webdesign?

I got this urge to get back on my webdesigning. I'm making a design for a friend, without her knowledge. Just for the sake of practice. I don't know if she'll want to use it, but I would be happy if she did. (That means my design in pleasing her)

So far all I can share is this one pic:



And it's yet to be coloured. I'm too slow and tired to be bothered with that atm. I get really demotivated when I have to use my laptop to draw; it constantly crashes because the RAM is broken and it tries to compensate by using the hard-drive's memory, which isn't enough.

I will be doing more anatomy practice some time soon. I hope.

Well, that's it for today I assume.

Brownie in a Mug

So, a while ago I found this recipe at 9GAG for a brownie in a mug. I didn't save it but liked the idea. So yesterday I googled it and made one. It was tasty, so I made one today too. Easy, nommy!

Recipe:

1 normal mug
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder (the real deal, not anything with sugar in it like O'boy or drink mix)
2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons vegetable-oil (any kind with neutral taste; I use rape-oil *hurr hurr*)
a tiiiny dash of salt

You mix the dry ingredients first, make sure you even out the flour-lumps and mix them in (scrape the bottom of the cup well!) then you add the water and oil. Once again, mix well and make sure to look for lumps because they taste bad if you leave them in. I prefer to use sliiightly less than a full oil tablespoon to minimum the oil taste.

Heat in microwave for 1-1½ min. Full heat and it's supposed to be a bit creamy in the middle when done.

Enjoy! Easy baking!

It's tasty I pwomise.

One cup should be enough to quench your thirst for sweets. If it doesn't, you need to learn to settle with that or else, you will get fat.

So I'm still waiting to get my laundry outta there... only about 1h 15min until I can get down there... Bleh. Contemplating watching gw videos or taking a shower...

G'night.

Erp

Um, yes... Update!

The days really melt into one another when your day goes passed two days....

Today was a not so nice day. Woke up to go do laundry, and once down there, I find a man using one of my booked machines and he has trouble turning it off mid-program. So I'm late at putting in my laundry. I put it in, return to my apartment to prepare the next  round, go down to manage the machine, realize that I'm not gonna make it before nine o'clock but I believe I can run it as long as I can at least. Wrong.

Nine sharp (not 21:15 as it normally shuts off) the power is cut and I sigh, grab my still wet sheets from the dryer and attend to the washing machine. Only it won't open. the digital screen is all black and no button responds and the door is thoroughly locked. Great. The laundry room is closed on Sundays. After almost breaking the door of the machine, I give up and exit. I leave after booking a time on Monday morning first thing it opens.

So Monday morning before work I have to rewash that machine and hope the clothes haven't moulded.

*sigh*

At least I got my sheets out of there, and thank goodness I didn't was the set I'm dressing the bed with right now, because ALL my sheets are wet.

Oh well.

- Over and out.

Long time no see

I have a bad habit of getting embarrassed when I have been idling around with something and end up procrastinating it even further.

This blog is an example. First I had nothing to tell, then I felt bad for not updating and then the vicious circle of not updating went on.

I still don't have much to say, but I'll try to peek in some at least. If nothign else, for my art's sake.

So if you're still around, I'll be comming back now. O-mata se shimashita.
