Up North Experience

Over the weekends, I went to my History of Art and Design fieldtrip in Ilocos. For those who don't know where that is, it's basically the farthest north that's still attached to the main island. Haha. But it's not my first time to go there. And the only ones I know on that trip were Karen and Chris, Denise and Patty. (I also got lazy taking pictures. If it wasn't for the requirements and stuff, I wouldn't have my camera with me.) So I wasn't really that super excited.

What made the trip memorable were the people I got to become friends with in that short amount of time.  Room 25. That was THE room. And the people who were originally staying there, hanged there, crashed there, etc... that made it one heck of a weekend.

first ones in, last ones out (karen, chris, ken, me)

so my house is near this place? LOL

we just love that red bricked wall

one of the coolest couples I met!

 Seriously asking for an Ilocos part 2, minus the morning tours.

Bed Sore

Since I had all the time in the world for a couple of days now being in bed rest and all that, I decided to work on my Freehand Midterm plate. I had to draw exactly the image that our professor had given, complete with the right measurements of everything even the shadowing.

Now, I'm not really good in drawing. You guys should see my figure sketches. They are really awful. And I'm also lazy as hell. So working on this plate -and actually doing an okay job based on the people I've asked- means a lot to me.

And I just realized how much work I actually did over the course of my bed rest. It's actually more than the amount of work I do when I'm not sick. Weird. Haha. Hopefully, once I get my full energy (and appetite) back, I get to stop being a lazy ass and start working on some of the things I need to do this year.
