It's another day, same century,same September but a different me. Buhahahaha! I've come with an extraordinary discovery,a skill I wasn't sure I could do or establish yet. I was wrong. Come to think of it, I've been wrong alot lately. It needs to stop at situations I genuinely need it to stop, can't afford being wrong in exams.
So little story,I have this laptop that's on the brink of giving up its ghost. It's still going because of the love we have for each other and I completely love it and I'm sure it loves me too. Around July,my laptop fell ill with another type of sickness. I call it 'desktopitis', okay that's a really dumb name. There's something wrong with my laptop's battery,it behaves like a tv now. I can't use it without it being connected to electricity. When I found out that evening,I was devastated, I wept a little and tried to comfort my dear laptop cause I couldn't imagine the pain it'd be going through. Such deceitful and cruel way of the world,even to electronic devices! My laptop has been with me through thick and thin,we have faced the impossible and the dumbest situation,we have survived screen parasite attacks and even though there's one or two green and pink line here and there on its screen,we survived!
I'm back from school now and wanted to say hi to my laptop,it doesn't have a name. I guess I should've named it since I decided to adopt it as an electronic pet. So back to what I was saying; I was randomly going through the movies and videos I had on my laptop and decided to do something. Ever since I was a little girl, I've been a computer girl? Does that make any sense? Well,during the early age of my teenage and preteen age, let's say from 7 till 12, there was this desktop in my house I always used to play purble place and chess,then when I had gotten bored of them, I'd go to paint or Corel draw and draw houses with the shape tools and colour them,those sort of things. They were easy stuff and really cool and I never thought of exploring then. Yesterday,I wanted to draw those houses I usually did on the Paint APK on my laptop but this time I wanted to try something different. There's this pencil tool that's very very annoying to use. My laptop isn't touch screen so I had to use my cursor and left click button to control the pencil. I've never really thought of drawing with this software before, apart from buildings and stuff like that.
Five hours later,I couldn't feel my fingers or my back and I had created something new, something now within my reach,it was a breakthrough!
"What if I add a little colour?"
I genuinely think he looks better colourless and lifeless.
This is definitely one of the best things I've done my entire life this year. I wasn't aware I could pull something like this off with my computer. I was frustrated through out the four hours I spent on my system and also anxious cause if the light goes,my computer automatically turns off. First ever digital drawing I've created with my hands and I did so without a pen or anything special,just my cursor and the left click button and some random cursing here and there and yes I sacrificed my ability to lay down on my back without pains plus mindless scribbling with that goddamn pencil cause whatever line I drew never went my way,ever!.
The drawing is ass but that's not the point. Focus on me here, I am the point;) And no,I am definitely not going to go fully into digital drawing.
Thanks for reading.
