The Longest Hour I Have Ever Stayed Back

Current Mood:Depressed emoticon Depressed

Recently, Ah Loong had ordered the ABC Monsters Team (lead by Jing Hui @ Zeen) to stayback everyday till 9pm. We normally go back around 7pm by the way. The reason he asked us to go back home late was because he’s not really satisfied with the ABC Monsters animation and wanted us to do better. Hmm.. by staying back late? Well, ok if we stay back we’d have more time to produce better animation (hopefully) but the dateline for ABC Monsters was tight as it is..

Anyways, yesterday we were asked to stay back a little bit later than usual. Say around 10.30pm. I don’t really mind actually since I also had to do extra two files from Anna, which is quite a long scene. BUT.. whatdaheck suddenly Vincent asked the ABC Team to help him do ammendments for this frickin animation subbed from another company. Turns out, I had to go back after 12am… It’s the latest time I’ve ever stayed back at the office.

To make matters worst, I didn’t realize my phone died on me which makes Ariz and my mom worried sick about me. Haha funny thing is I was wondering why my mum didn’t even bother to call and check up on me. Ironic. Ariz tried calling me since 12.30am and turns out, he drove all the way from Shah Alam to my office to pick me up. Eversince that incident, he had decided for me that I should quit Animasia before we get married.

Hmmm… quit Animasia. I never intended to work permanently there in the first place but I really NEVER intended to quit that soon. I was planning somewhere around September or December. He keep on insisting that I quit the company for several reason I don’t feel comfortable of telling publicly here.

I don’t want to quit. yet… T_T Please, let me gain more knowledge and experience here.. I really love working here eventhough the pay is not that much compared to my friends who’re working as Assistant Architect or Design Architect right now, but I love doing what I’m doing right now. The colleagues are all very nice people too. I felt a sense of belonging. I don’t care if you think I’m talking crap or I’m just living myself in an illussion created by myself. I’m happy here!!

T__________T urgh.. you..

CF2008 - of disappointment and self motivation

Hey…

Haha I know CF is over for a week now, and as always I wanted to update earlier but wasn’t really bothered about it that much till recently. I read reviews and comments regarding the event and most of them agrees that this year’s venue is a very nice venue indeed. Spacious, comfortable walking space, airy, and hey, personally I think the table arrangement for doujin booths are quite nicely done too since it’s within the crowd circulation area. But the tables are a little bit too long and during the first day I felt somehow.. cold and lonely becauseof the distant feeling. O_O; hehehe.. or maybe it’s coz Ariz wasn’t there on the first day. meh!

Sales was quite good. We managed to finish all 50 copies of doujin in two days. But the feedback from the readers was not really that good. T_T Yeah I didn’t manage to finish my comic. Mecha only managed to send in pencil work comics. Only Kitsin finishes his 30 page manga on time. heck that’s 30 page man! If he doesn’t contributed his comics, our doujin would totally be EMPTY. Hmm.. and seriously I didn’t expect a lot of people would look forward to read my comic continuation. =A= I have let you guys down…

I don’t have a concrete reason for not submitting my work. Yes, I don’t. The only reason was laziness and no mood and I was morally down. That’s not really a reason. It’s more of an excuse. yep!

I don’t want to make anymore empty promises. We’ll just see next year. argh! I hate this..

CF2008 pictures? Man I don’t even had the mood to snap pictures this year. ~_~

UnderAge

I just bought UnderAge graphic novel. My review :

CRAPTASTICALLY ZINTALLY FUNNYYYY. I never thought I’d laugh out loud while reading Malaysian comic books. (yeah I’m biased so what?) Cheered up my night. =) One of the best part about the stories (other than the humour) would be the nostalgic value of playing childhood games. Ironically, if I didn’t read this graphic novel, I didn’t even know the basic rules of playing Konda-kondi. O_O; the heck.. And hahaha I just love the way the kids look up to SCARFACE. OUYEAH SCARFACE YOU’RE SOOO SEXAYYYHH~~ XD

Since I never did follow the series when it was published in Utopia, reading the graphic novel does give much more impact on me. Ah~ I totally adore the artist. Such versatility. Loving the style. Zint has his own formula of chibi-ness. Next graphic novel I’m waiting for from him would be Kijiya and Hackers. Both published bi-monthly in Utopia but heck I don’t have the commitment to buy Utopia just for that! T_T yeah I’ma cheap bugger. =3=

I tell you this one’s worth to keep. =)

Passion

It’s getting thinner and thinner…

And not to mention my stomach skin is thinning too. I suffered from gastric and diorhea this morning. Couldn’t get out of bed. My whole body aches (it’s been aching for the past 2-3 days) and every morning I woke up I felt like I’ve been in a fight. Damn whole body aches and stings!!!

Hmm… turns out my brother also kena cirit-birit. My boyfriend who went back to Seremban to visit my grandma also kena cirit-birit. =A= grammmaaaaaa…. what did you put in the foooooodddddddddd….. aaaaaaahhhh… no more spicy food for me.. I guess…

~_~

watched Gurren Lagann just now. All I can say is.. haha.. haaa…

Hmm.. I’m missing someone who doesn’t care. *sigh*

Thanx so much to Ah Ling and Jing Hui and everyone else for the tutoring and most importantly the patience. Aaaarghhh!!! Don’t lose it yet AYEZ!!!!!
