ART DAY #3!
In my art class, we had done something called "art rendering" or something like that. We had to draw a black and white image, along with shading and all those other fancy things. It was only for a short time, so I had to cram and finish it late late at night, but for something done at such a short period of time, I'm secretly proud of it!





I wish we had more class time to finish it so that I could fix her mouth and color a background, but I'm happy with the outcome! :D Her nose and her hair was the two parts that really, really annoyed me. ><'''

Your parents call each other "Mommy" and "Daddy."

You have uncles and aunts named "Boy," "Girlie," or "Baby." (omg, my dad's name is Boy)

You play cards or mahjong and drink beer at funeral wakes.

You think Christmas season begins in October and ends in January.

Your second piece of luggage is a balikbayan box.

You've mastered the art of packing a suitcase to double capacity.

You collect items from airlines, hotels, and restaurants as "souvenirs." (more like steal. XP)

You feel obligated to give pasalubong to all your friends and relatives each time you return from a trip.

You use paper foot outlines when buying shoes for friends and relatives.

You're a fashion victim.

You can convey 30 messages with your facial expression.

You hold your palms together in front of you and say "excuse, excuse" when you pass in between people or in front of the TV.

You ask for the bill at a restaurant by making a rectangle in the air. (My mom does this all the time, but in american restaurants they don't know what she means. XP)

You cover your mouth when you laugh.

You respond to a "Hoy!" or a "Pssst!" in a crowd.

You'll answer "Malapit lang!"--no matter the distance--when asked how far away a place is located. (omg, my mom does this ALL the time)

Goldilocks is more than a fairy tale character to you.

You refer to power interruptions as "brownouts."

You love to use the following acronyms: CR for comfort room, DI for dance instructor, DOM for dirty old man, TNT for tago nang tago, KJ for kill joy, KSP for kulang sa pansin, OA for over-acting, TL for true love, BF for boyfriend and GF for girlfriend. (I only use CR, OA, GF and BF)

MEME-TASTIC CHRISTMAS~

taken from chocolatley
Step One
Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your Tabulas. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Harry Potter icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your Tabulas, or link to this post so that the holiday joy will spread.

Step Two
Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:

If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.

You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.

There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.

Maki's Wishlist
1. Cute pixel av. for DMB~
2. SNOW! XD
3. Bleach 2005 Calendar *_*
4. A custom pixel. ;D
5. A drawing!
6. For everyone to have a GREAT X-Mas!

YAY! Pass on the love and try to make everyone on tabulas have a special Christmas!!!
