a week in summary...
above is a piece of art drawn by
aves_ives that i coloured early last week as a competition thingy. unfortunately he didn't pick mine ( but said it was one of his favs at least). first time i've ever really coloured over someone else's art and i think i was a bit conservative in style and colour choice. the artwork is for an upcoming american mangaka book.
wednesday last week, i had a job interview. the interview itself went quite well i thought (i'm awaiting a potential second interview) but the day didn't start off too well as my alarm strangely didn't go off, so i had to rush. i also got caught answering my mobile at the traffic lights while driving by a cop which resulted in a fine :(
another interview for a totally different company and job also went well on thursday last week (may get a second interview early next week if i make the cut). the night before i had really strange but vivid dreams of my late grandparents visiting! while walking to my interview, i also saw what looked like a break-in and an old man rolling up a cig in his verandah asking if i had 4 bucks to spare (i read his lips and hand gestures as i had my ipod on).
thursday that same night, i took my girlfriend and my parents to see the broadway musical, the lion king. i got the tickets like just before christmas last year in order to get some good seats and i have to say, it was well worth the price of admission and the hype. great production value especially in costumes and just basically getting the characters and feel right into a stage production.
watched some dvds last weekend. blood & bones: kinda sad and depressing and a bit drawn out. whiteout: fantastic! great japanese action thriller like the classic and original die hard. finally, ong bak: the fighting and acrobatics are great but the movie overall was a bit meh for me.
up to the final case in phoenix wright: ace attorney and kind of don't want to finish it since i'd probably go thru withdrawal from such an awesome game :( (i went and d/l the rom for gyakuten saiban 3 even!!). decided to get animal crossing: wild world just like recently and have been having fun experiencing life in the ac world! please friend me if you've got this game!!

got and completed 2 storyboard jobs early this week. it felt good mainly because they called and i felt wanted for my services again. hopefully my creative juices are replenishing and will work on some of the various projects i have on my plate real soon.
EDIT: oops, totally forgot about last sunday night at the comedy festival. went and saw dylan moran with my gf and her sister. i wasn't expecting him to be so philosophical but then thinking about his character, bernard, in black books (which i'm a fan of), it made sense. very funny.
