killer deadlines

home sewing is killing fashion

hehe. since i need to prototype my shopping bag, i learned how to use a sewing machine. quite an amazing (and over-complicated) gadget. there was no way i could 'install' the string all by myself. i'm excited!! i already started sewing scrap clothes together. beware, i might sew you, too...

i really have no idea how to have my design produced, but that is a whole other story.

cambio del tiempo

since it is spring time, and the sun is currently shining, it is once more time to be happy:) today i even had the illusion that i went on vacation (with big trees and grass surrounding me, together with my friends' cute little dog). that vacation will wait a little more, though. pencils, are you ready?

raison d'être

these days i'm trying to figure out many things. like what i am supposed to do with the rest of my life:) pretty stupid problem, no? that's why i feel quite unproductive. i hate listing excuses, so i'm going to follow my new action plan. which includes finishing many things and creating some new projects to focus on. i sometimes get lost in life's demands, but to miss things that are actually important (like realising dreams) would be kind of a shame, considering we are all mortals, right? please remind me not to take anything too seriously.

eyestrain purple

all of a sudden, some job becomes the most important thing in the world for a few days. you lose sleep over it, you become overly involved in it, you feel guilty for leaving it aside just for one minute, you get back pain because of stressing over it too much. you don't spend time with your loved ones-not one second-because this job is sooo important. and then, all of a sudden, nobody cares about it anymore. all that nervousness, all those nightmares. just for nothing.

excavate

i don't know why i am crazy for these machines. whenever i see one, i freeze for a while to happily stare at it. i think i love all the mechanical parts. or maybe the giant wheels. or the totally utilitarian look. or the saturated yellow color. i'm not sure; but i always dream of one day being assigned to design one of these. how fantastic that would be! do you feel that way too, or am i the only one?

i just learned that this guy is called 'backhoe' in english. funny name.

hace frío

i don't know how far i can go today with this crappy internet connection, but please beware of the pseudo-sunshiny weather in the morning. which becomes a really cold weather right after sundown. i would like to hibernate for a couple of weeks.

hunter gatherer

this is the aforementioned entry that caused me trouble over the weekend. hehe. i was accused of being too violent for this graphic. well well, we cannot escape the ugly truth forever, can we? life is not always butterflies, flowers and rainbows. yeah, this is said by someone who watched the ring through her fingers. please, don't make me watch it again.
