You're Losing Your Memory Now

Oct 10, 2012 21:28

The title has nothing to do with the entry, actually. I just like the song (yes it's a song).


One night I sort of missed my DeviantArt (DA) and I logged in again after centuries of forgetting the existence of my account. If I remember correctly, the last time I opened it was around mid-2011 when I uploaded a really crappy not-so-artwork. Well anyway, when I opened it again, I found (more of like rediscovered) things which are nostalgic while some are a bit embarrassing that they either crack me up or made me stop breathing, faceflooring as I thought I just lost all my abilities to can. Not really. It's just that funny feeling when you see your old posts in an old blog and they make you wonder why you did this and that and how you look dumb, stupid, sometimes flatteringly amusing. So let me enumerate some of the things I found in my DA:

1. Crappy artwork

Yes. Some aren't really but in general they are crappy. I browsed through my gallery page and then I asked myself, where did the courage to put these things up on DA, the land of awesome people who knew what real art and talent, come from? Wherever I got them, I'm sure it no longer exists.

2. Fictional Language La!

I sort of devised a fictional language for an originally-non-fanfiction-turned-fanction story back in the days when I was still shameless--wait, I am still shameless So that fictional language sounds like stupid gibberish Korean plus some Iberian words that I just mixed and jumbled and boom it tada! It happened. A sample goes like this: "Umpa long lamgeut-eso geu, Sambaeme en nombeuralan Le, Eyeose ni alomeong en miya Le, Sonorse en honsae Le, Robo ni don yang ni lamgeut" which is just a translation of "Our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come they will be done one earth as it is in heaven". To be honest I no longer know how to use this like how to compose a sentence or more importantly, speak it. I still have my "dictionary" (a spreadsheet of words and its English counterparts) with me but it's now confusing. This might still be useful sometime in the near far future so not abandoning this. Yet.

3. My friend's sketch of me (in anime version) kissing somebody

DON'T LAUGH. Or...yeah, you can actually laugh. My friend just did it because we were trying to make somebody jealous. That's all. But I like it, to be very honest. I still feel uhm...idk, good or funny when I see it (I actually saved it in my flashdrive lol). Here's the link to the photo (I'm the guy of course).

4. Personal shit.

That's it. I am so done. Why did I post them there.

5. MY FRIEND'S GRAPHICS AND STORY CONCEPTS

Oh god guys he is just so awesome I can actually lie on the floor forever as I look at his works of perfect art in eternity. He told me about his story of Nueva Segovia (which we initially planned to get done together but something weird happened it's all my fault I am so so sorry OTL) and his concepts, prototypes, background stories and everything. They are just- (ノ*゚ー゚)ノ☆.。.:*・°☆.。.:*・

He's also the one who did that kiss sketch above.

There was a tiny bit of sadness as I scrolled down my journals, read the comments and remember all the stories behind every post. But in general, remembering all these things is fun. Time is just too fast. Sometimes (most of the time actually, or in my case at least?) we think something happened yesterday when in fact eons had already passed since then. It's quite amusing to see what was me back then. It made me realize the amount of change that happened over the years.

SO OKAY I better stop because I don't really have the intention of putting much drama in this post. And if ever you, the reader who for some reason got lost in the world wide web and stumbled upon this post which, I bet half of my phone's battery's life, is irrelevant to your life, wondered if I plan to be active in DA again, I don't have plans of updating my DA yet, as of writing time, that is.

Alright then. Ciao! (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
