A while ago one of my friends asked me if I’m reading any kind of books. I had to face a fact, that for a while (about a year and a little bit more) I haven’t had any kind of so called “book” in my hands, except those multimedia design and communication materials for studies (books and articles about: programming, overall design, business, communication). Basically everything, what was needed to read in the field I’m professionalizing in.

Recently I found a book, which caught not only my mind senses but also eye with it’s cover. I knew that I have to read, think it felt like seeing a first twilight book for a teenage girl. The book is called: “Born to run: A Hidden Tribe, Superathletes, and the Greatest Race the World Has Never Seen” and was written by Christopher McDougall. Sounds overwhelming doesn’t it?

Few hours spent fighting verbally with the machine. Machine which understands the epic coding language – Action script. Like a dragon, which is hard to kill, but whenever you find a solution you feel solitude and pure euphoria.

Since two jumping rope sets already ripped off after few dozens of sessions I officially reopen the running season 11′.

“Get back in shape for the ladies, for a swimsuit season” – SpecialC.

Hehe exactly, what can be more inspiring than that? My inspiration goes straight from will for being fit and ‘ready for action’. Moreover something like that (what you can find in the picture on the right) is always a plus.

So what are you waiting for? Still copying with doing exercises at home? Go out and catch a wind, but don’t forget about special shoes.

First day as an Intern in the company. In fact there is nothing to mention apart that it’s really interesting and time just flies by. Already gathering resources and data for the project based on the internship and whilst keeping work logged I feel as safe as a baby in those protective mothers hands.

Meanwhile check few logo projects(on the right) I was working on recently.

Further updates and just blogging about “nothing” soon.

Hehe, all those request to draw something from different people are so untouchable and out of place.

Like this drawing, example, which comes from past two night when I recapitulated the request and started working on it: “cat with a shoe instead of it’s head” – seriously wtf? Only Canadian people can request things like that and shark-gorillas, hitler-robots etc etc. – unimaginable.

Following drawing-design is also available in Merch spot, described in previous post.

As promised in a previous blog post (custom tshirt III: owl portal) here comes the second part of it. What if you would like to have a tshirt with the same design as I was drawing few days ago?

Girls and boys with this demo video (below) I’m proud to announce my tshirt design merchandise e-table:

And as time goes by I’ll try to revive all of my previous designs to the public. Only in this way I’ll make sure they will stay longer, because paint often just goes off after year or two.

Did I already wrote a post how I love tshirts? Maybe even 2 or 3 – don’t even remember. As you noticed from time to time I’m “baking” new tshirt designs and posting semi-tutorials with photos, instruction how why and what to do to create tshirts by yourself.

This one goes in the same concept, but all I wanted to add is a technique your mom (my mom) told me to mark the shirt area for further drawing without leaving any stains. Plus a video of how it was done, just for you, my readers, to enjoy and have a broader view towards what I’m doing.

Two days of filtering and studying a bunch of articles and books about the same thing, just from different perspectives made me crazy in some way. How can you solve a problem if you have ten hundred different ways to go?

Finally I’m almost done with this semester and am ready for the next one with Internship-placement. One more step closer to graduation. Applause? Thank you.

On the left side of this post you can see a task paper I’ve got 48 hours before exam (don’t mind the notes, which were done the same day I’ve got this paper – turns out I did the solution in very different way than started and planned to).

And some eye candies after a break with some people who went through “fire and ice” and fisheye:

No other words needed:

Where is my mind? or how awesome and crazy is that? – You choose.

First of all how serious I should write about it?

The more you spread your branches and evolve in the industry that provides learning, working and evolving capabilities, the more paths you have to check whilst working on something, which obviously involves business. I’m not sure if I expressed it in the right way or words, but what I was trying to say, was that you need some artifacts for example business cards to remind people that you’re still somewhere around and that they can contact you whenever they need something.

Doesn’t matter what you do, you can be a plumber super mario, taxi driver with a funny mustache, freelance pilot or just a business man in general, still that one piece of paper can help in a lot of different ways, maybe even change your life (uuuu, sounds interesting doesn’t it?).
