Evils of burning the midnight oil and 5-hours sleep
Just woken up from 5 hours of sleep. I stayed up the whole night last night doing the film society's blog layout. So now, I feel like a zombie. My skin feels dry and I feel detached from my body. And surprisingly, my mind doesn't feel tired at all, but my actions tell me that it is. My normally one-hour-reaction time is hereby extended to two hours. My typing speed right now this instant is.........outrageous, unbelievabe. and I don't know what other words are there to describe how slow I'm typing.
Doesn't matter. I feel accomplished anyway. It doesn't matter that the design isn't the best that I've done, doesn't matter that I took longer than I usually would on a layout of this kind. Haven't been touching layout design for quite a while now, and I give it to myself that my skills get rusty. In fact, I kinda think the layout looks a bit too amateurish. But nevermind, I like it anyway. Shan't be too critical with myself. It's been a long time and now that I've gone back to design, I don't wanna turn myself off, do I? LOL.
But designing at night has this timeless feel to it. Inspiration comes more easily. Ideas flow more fluidly. Paitience comes more readily. And night itself is a timeless stretch of time, so you don't get bored or easily distracted. In fact, I don't think I've ever done any designing in the day before. With exception to Shan's blog layout, which I kinda did in the day AND night. But majority was still in the night. I like the night.
I really should go around designing my own blogger blog skin soon. And then perhaps LJ. hmm..
