How to deal with drunk people.
-Subject: Drunk people.
I’ve spent two years of my life going out and trying to learn how to be social (aka picking up girls.) I’ve learnt my skills and left the party scene behind. But yet it was valentines day and my girl friend wet out drinking with her friend. I never liked drinking ever in my life, Long story short things got ugly her friend got dunk and the table next to them got drunk and things got out of control. I went and make sure she’s safe with all drunks around. So today let’s see how could you handle these human zombies with class.
The killing speech.
-Subject: Keep an eye on what you take in.
I was watching a video speech by David foster yesterday about being the master of your mind. Apparently the speech is recorded while he was in some university. First question I had is why did they let him to talk in universities if he’s talking the truth? I got my answer half way because he is talking about exactly the school system wants people to think. He speaks part of the truth but it’s flawed.
Killing Love, CREATING A STORY.
Subject: Building a story.
I’ve studied a lot of people along my years, today I’d use the information I have to generate a story people would enjoy, Since art is communication all that right. It’s also a good experiment for me to test if I know the audience. So here is my story called killing love. There’s this demon girl called Mintra which is very powerful and could travel time and space with her snake pet Z. She is always depressed and bored and try to look for love.
My four FUCKS.
Subject: You can”t get what you don”t want.
If you’ve picked art to spend your life on, chances are it gives you joy and satisfaction. By identifying what you really want as an artist can cut off some times wasters which doesn’t lead to your goal. After a lot of thinking I came up with this sentence’ To create and improve in art as long as I could.’
Affirmations
-Subject: Grow into what you want.
I’ve shared my experience of the power of affirmations and words last time, Today I would like to invite you all to my experiment starting this year(2020). But first let’s analyse a bit more on how affirmations work also why people ask you to set higher or even impossible goals. See they both a setting a frame your you to grow into, it’s like building that fence for plants to grow into. The plant can just grow where the fence ends. Same as your goals, human potential is near unlimited. If you set a small goal for yourself you’d stop growing after that goal.
How to cast a spell.

In case no one told you, Words are spells. Spells that cast pictures in your mind and create emotions in your brain. Swords to sting peoples feelings. “The words of a good person are like pure silver, but an evil person”s thoughts are worth very little.” -God.

By reading it and wearing it you are casting a spell on yourself you make you do the things you want.It”s a spell to direct your will power.
Your three silver bullets.
-Subject: Always be ready.
One of the most memorable thing when I was a kid is watching werewolf on TV. It was very intense and really got me freaking out when the hero dropped his only sliver bullet (the only thing that could kill a werewolf.) I didn’t the ending but one thing is for sure, he isn’t a very good monster hunter. You know you’re facing a powerful werewolf and you only got one sliver bullet? How will the movie go if he had three bullets? It’s going to be a short movie.
The Best asset of an artist.
-Subject: Learn how to use our asset.
What is the most valuable asset of an artist? Is it the eye or the drawing hand? although both are definitely very important. The best asset is gonna be Time. But there’s a catch, Your brain needs to learn to spend that time on your important task.Because even you think art is very important your brain might have other priorities.
Own the next best thing.
Your Art is not you.

How I wasted 14,600 hours on drawing.
Subject: The 10,000 hour rule.
I started drawing from a young age around 5, And I’ve spent most of my time in school drawing, All my workbook and worksheets from school are full of drawings, My teacher will take my drawings and throw them away which is fine since I am the ‘I hate my work’ type. I notice training what I want is way more important then anything school is teaching. Luckily I got into an art focused college but even you are art focused in Hong Kong it only means four extra art class per week not like Math you have lessons everyday. If I take the lunch hour away and say 4 hours of drawing at school everyday plus weekends 10 years of primary plus college gives me around 14,600 hours on drawing.
Three Art tips from Frank frazetta.
-Subject: Learning from the masters.
Frank frazetta is the best master level artist close to our times. In fact he just left us at 2010. Ten years has passed but his art is looking better then ever, His art style is masculine and aggressive, the beauty of violence and sex can been seen in many of his work. Today I’d dissect his art and analyse how he gives that aggressive taste to his works.
