The wise man said, time heals. It does. I am feeling better now. Spiritually. Much cheery than yesterday, than the previous day, than the previous, previous day.
Jamie sent me the pictures I've requested which he has captured in his photography rendezvous. I can't thank him more. Of course, he reminded to accredit him for his work. How could I not. Reminded him too that the drawings are for his taking whichever he likes when I am done. I asked for 3. I think I would only do 2. The "monk" picture after a brief look through the entire picture, he doesn't intrigue me, unless I get him in oil. But I am not there yet.
I am planning to sketch the "aunty in the temple" with tone of blue or grey or even red. I am planning to paint the 'birds' in shades of grey. And so, the "monk" would be the last. He looks the most simple but in my opinion, he would be the challenge.
Simply because his face in right in front of the camera, faces which has direct focus on the picture is the toughest to draw. It requires perfection of the pencil to get his face right. And that, requires unprecedented skill.
So yes, Ms Wii will be drawing when she returns from Beijing.
Speaking of which, Beijing is a colossal of snow within. And the weather is ferociously crazy. Like a woman scorned. *Gulp* I feel like a humble man trying to wean her angry soul to serenity. So that, I can trek the Great Wall, at least once in my lifetime. *Grin* Those below 0 degree temperature scares me a bit and I am in no position to envisage its wholly tenacity of greatness. This is Mother Nature. The Queen. The lady whom I have humbly bow when she wants me to bow. I am no where worthy of her tenacious and temperamental nature.
So, I can just pray. Pray, pray, pray. No storm. No blizzard. Pleaseeeee. And be nice enough for me to walk up the Walls. *Pray*
I'm pretty hype up with things. I have 2 things major to plan now.
1. My, bro and Susan's diving refresher and the rest of the people's license
2. The Kinabalu hike
My heart flips when we talk about these. Yippee.
Anyway, just also pray I am in state of wonderful health. Every virus with an attitude has came out to celebrate the year end and new year with me. They actually put the body to rest and partied as if there is no tomorrow. So much so that I am half a drug junkie now just to settle these buggers down and get them off back into their closet where they have been tightly lock all these while.
Pray.
Well, so much for it now and having to pray. It's back to reality. Till then.
