ooookay and here's the continuation...

WEDNESDAY

wednesday is fiesta in Wawa/del remedio so beya took me and mikko to her friend there to eat (yummy! free eats! wheee!) and chat.

after that i went directly to our fastfood place (even if it's closed for the day) to meet with someone who's supposed to take me to watch Matrix Revolutions. Turns out he came earlier and found the place closed so he went to my house. Good thing my Achi told him i was waiting at the orig place. we eventually met there by bebe's text :)

unfortunately we found that the Matrix movie is already replaced by local movies. He decided to libre me toinstead. He even let me take the last 2 slices home. I bought net cards(so i can net and post here and stuff ;) and mikko's burger.

I got home and gave my kuya the pizza slices for arranging the ornaments in our christmas tree (after I set it up) before proceeding upstairs to give bebe their burger and her netcard.

THURSDAY

Thursday I finally got up the nerve to finish all three projects in one morning. but didn't have time to send them. deciding to send them now i went to tindahan to find mamy there. she told me to take her to megamallafter the rush hour.

after texting gerry that i can't make it (nuts, i didn't get to see jeffrey and carlo!) i ate lunch and went off with mom for her errands. we got home before 10 pm kanina.

we chatted a bit, wanwan gave us chocolates (yummy!). and I played Noxas a warrior this time instead of conjurer. Then mamy asked for some physical therapist session. by the time i'm done it's time for free net! wheeee!

Hmmm, lessee...

Friday Derrick gave me a ticket to watch that play rahab where he's part of the cast.

Derrick(far left) as Rethalim, Richard(third from left, also from San Pablo) as Eschol

the play is amazing. Go check it out! admission is free! :)

Monday we closed the deal with the room. Tuesday my achi and i went to apply for passports. I'd write more but i'm in a hurry right now :)

TROWA! SABI KO NA NGA BA! SOULMATES TAYO! WAHEHEHEHE!



Yesterday I went to Makati to meet with a friend to look for a room-for-rent that we can share. I got hired to work in Makati. She also works in Makati and told me she's looking for a roommate. We had brunch in Mcdo discussing about the rooms we'll check out, the areas, and the ceiling price. We're both glad to agree on our ceiling price :) And off we went on a quest to look for a decent, safe, affordable room we could share!

We first went to Santillan and the first place we checked out (she has a few leads because she's been looking for a place for two months now. Wow! She's very efficient :) actually looks the most promising. If we don't find a better place before Nov 30 I'm putting my money down on that one :) I start work dec 1. Thanks for the congrats dady Az!

She and I talked a lot about our lives, families and other stuff and I've said "I'm getting creeped out" a few times because we have so many parallelisms, but I'm mostly amused at how I could relate to her. I really hope this roomie thing works out :)

After that we parted ways and I went on to my future office to meet the employees. The office is very new and very... 'spacious' (as derrick puts it). but the place is cool, and it has dsl! and Sir Danny (my contact) is the coolest! He's the one who hired me after interviewing me by chat and gave me tests I submitted online :)

i went to megamall after to meet with mom and wanwan. i had my works photocopied to be submitted to dady Az by having them picked up at Comic Quest (my thanks to Mike Simbulan and Raquel!). I also dropped off Tintin no da's vcd's and heavy metal so she can get them back na :) Az texted me later saying he picked them up na! Whee! So nice! Then my fam and I went home :)

from PSYCHOCOW:

This is it!
"Ang Boyfriend Ko" is coming out this Thursday, 7:30pm, only on Studio 23!
Nood naman kayo!

+++

What would happen if one guy proposed to three girls, and all of them said yes?
Would that guy be extremely lucky... or extremely screwed? Find out!
Ang Boyfriend Ko!
Starring Marvel Julian (of Single)
Ira Eigenmann, Mika Callanta, and Michelle Cuneta (as the girlfriends)
also starring Reena David and Bidz De La Cruz

"White Flag" by Dido (saw its video. amusing)

I know you think that I shouldn't still love you,
Or tell you that.
But if I didn't say it, well I'd still have felt it
where's the sense in that?

I promise I'm not trying to make your life harder
Or return to where we were

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

I know I left too much mess and
destruction to come back again
And I caused nothing but trouble
I understand if you can't talk to me again
And if you live by the rules of "it's over"
then I'm sure that that makes sense

Well I will go down with this ship
And I won't put my hands up and surrender
There will be no white flag above my door
I'm in love and always will be

And when we meet
Which I'm sure we will
All that was there
Will be there still
I'll let it pass
And hold my tongue
And you will think
That I've moved on....

kawaiiiiii! this one is from edgar tadeo's equally cute site!

WE're doing the face painting! Wheeeee! And we're selling food there too! Wanwan's Fastfood! I'll just talk Wanwan into minding that foodstall heheh!

FACE PAINTING GIG A HUGE SUCCESS!

Wheeeeeeee! Everything went out great! We went to the kiddie party venue half an hour early and had kids and moms lined up before we could even set up!

I'm really glad we spent the night before practicing skin painting. I painted a unicorn on the birthday celebrant. A mom requested a rose 'tattoo' on her ankle, another wanted the seahorse she saw on my portfolio. Achi painted yinyangs on the boykids and flowers and butterflies on the girlkids. Wan listed down names of people who got the skin paint, their designs, and their artists.

Everyone is satisfied with our work. The kids were afraid at first, not knowing what to expect. But as soon as the first kids are done the other kids gathered all around us showering us with requests and pushing each other to be the first one painted. Most of the boykids requested me to paint Yu-Gi-oh stuff I copy from their cards. Why the heck is the Blue Ice Dragon so popular??? And I also copied a Dragon Master from another kid's card. I also got a lot of unicorn requests from the girls. And rainbows.

I spent the days since I was hired Tuesday stressing and panicking. Convinced that I never did it before and therefore could never do it. While Achi efficiently made a lot of research about face painting and we both formulated plans about what materials to buy/get and from where. We also made research on how much to charge and what rate. We even saved a lot of designs, and I started copying them onto a portfolio to show the clients. Manually. Because I'm still out of black and can't print them out and besides they're low-res.

We worked for 3 hours non-stop. Looking at Wan's list we found out we painted all the kids there and some adults, with kids having up to 4 paintings each. Yay! We're fast! I'm really glad to know we can pull it off. And the kids had so much fun. We laughed when we saw the kids who are too afraid are prodded by their parents to get themselves painted. As soon as we're done and handed them the mirror they're happy and wanted to show it to their friends :)

We were so grateful when we can eat while the guests enjoy the last event which was a magic show. When the party ended the host's assistant handed out their business cards to the guests. Seeing that I asked Achi for the business cards she printed which were meant to be for those who asked for it and gave out our cards to the ones who haven't asked for our card. It turns out they didn't notice we have cards and had different parents asking me for more cards.

We charged half-price because it's our first time. I was still kinda sad because the materials we bought are expensive, especially the Snazaroo that cost me P350 for basically 6 piso-sized paint pans that I had to travel all the way to Glorietta for before the big day. But our improvisations of our skin art kit saved us money against buying the full Snazaroo Kit for P10k! We even got to pay Wan for her assisting us :)

Woohoo! May bago na kaming raket! nyahahhahahahahah!

I was tasked to head a face/body art gig this saturday for a kiddie birthday party last tuesday, and has been scrambling to get ready since then!

So how was the Matrix? :) no spoilers! Just send me your pics from the event! :D I finished watching all 5 cd's of chobits. The story's getting real good. I just hope I get to watch it to the end.

WOO-HOO! Remember when I had this gig to draw caricatures in the Toy Convention?

One of my customers is kind enough to post it online! wheeeee! I was so surprised when I accidentally found it by typing my name in Google :D thanks so much!

Check out the site here!

Ok, Saturday...

umm, I finally finished Nox (darn, that Hecubah is hard to kill!). And starting the play the other two stories. I also got a text from Ching who said she wants to buy 20 copies of my comics in color to give away to her friends for the holiday season as gifts. I offered to print colored covers in my printer and sell the books at PhP50 each.

I went out today and bought metallic paper to print my covers on and I am now working on churning out indies with colored copies, hopefully in time for the laguna Komikero meeting tomorrow at 2pm!


I'm still working on my G-force costume to cosplay at the coming c3con! So far I have the red/white striped pants, leather boots, and a red t-shirt. I'm still figuring out how to color the black and white parts of the shirt, and I still have to buy materials to make the transmute bracelet.

Okay... what did we do last Friday? Ummm, not much?

NOT! Beya saw on TV while my bro Allan was watching the local cable channel a feature about DIOKO RESORT AND BUTTERFLY FARM located right here in San Joaquin, San Pablo City! She got so excited she wants us all to check it out right away!

And as luck would have it, our driver Nonoy had nothing to do because he took the day off so he could get registered as a voter but the office denied him to prioritize newbies.

So soon enough we're on our way through rough roads(and I mean ROUGH! Not for cars with lowered engines!) expecting to see a butterfly farm but half-afraid we'd be disappointed to see a lousy resort with a few dead insects in frames.

Well, what the hey! The first thing we saw as we drove up inside are ostriches!

Friggin' OSTRICHES running around in their cages! They huge! and I gotta admit kinda scary. After we made sure the cages are secure we snapped pics. I'll upload the pics when they get developed :) the film's supposed to be for the butterflies but there we were snapping away at peacocks, snakes, deers, wild cats, kangaroos, eagles, falcon, monkeysand lots of other animals.

And that is only on our way to the frickin' buttefly farm. We found a few swimming pools. And we passed through a cute little garden to get to the entrance to the farm. When asked for tickets we asked Nonoy to run and get tickets for all six of us (Mamy, Beya, Allan, me, Wanwan, Nonoy and Mikko(he's free :p). A ticket costs PhP40 for grown-ups, PhP20 for kids.

after the cute garden we saw... dead insects in frames. But lo and behold! What's behind door number 2?! after pushing through plastic curtains we're in! Butterfly Farm! We're surrounded with flitting, floating butterflies! wan kept squaling and laughing because they tickle when they rest on our bare skin. wan's wearing a sleeveless and skirt so yes, she's the noisiest among us :)

We took our time taking in all the different kinds of butterflies and flowers. The variety isn't as big as any butterfly encyclopedia, but their sheer number is enough to make you want to stand still just long enough for one of them to rest on you. And in the middle is pretty fish pond full of colorful japanese carp.

we just followed the zigzag path inside the garden and soon we made our way out because they butterflies are starting to freak wanwan and allan out("geez! get offa me already!!!")... heheheh!

And when we got out we found a playground and took the liberty of making fools of ourselves by playing like kids(good thing the film ran out halfway through the butterfly farm). I nudged my way down slides, rode the swings til I rocked the poor foundations and see-sawed until it nearly broke under our extreme weight!

after that we walked around the resort and found more swimming pools. the place was nearly empty (duh! why else would we play in the playground?!) as we pester the employees there about cottage rates and stuff. entrance fee for the resort is PhP70 i think. a room with 3 beds and an aircon and a full bath is maybe PhP1200.

soon after we made our way home and stopped by Folcon's Bakery and coffee shop along Maharlika Hi-Way to buy pastries. And it's day well-spent :)

here's hoping I get that ePLDT job

just finished second interview. It was as fun as last time. I talked with their Developers Team as well. I wonder when I could get to have the final interview though

after that i went(and got lost on the way) to rockwell, powerplant mall, kingfisher restaurant for my mom's uncle's book lanuching of his eighth religious book "Hardin ng Panalangin Book 8".

Lolo Pros (Proceso Marcelo) a radio announcer/pastor for the DZAS AM station. His son (bale my uncle) Junjee Marcelo wrote songs for Gary Valenciano and won a Metropop sonf festival years ago :) I'll post pics when they get developed.

Yesterday was a wonder-FULL day for me!

I got to get out of the house (finally) NOT to go mind the store or run errands, but to actually go out to Manila for a job interview at Boni Avenue!

I got there and made to answer two essay-type questions which I finished early enough to meet with friends Cathy and Derrick(guy in photo below, yep: leftmost one) in glorietta!

We all met in Timezone at G4 and we stopped by Subway to get lunch while Cathy orders water because she already had a big breakfast :) after that she took us to Landmark to help me find clothes for my cosplay.

After that I went back to Boni to continue my tests for my job hunting. I answered non-verbal and verbal tests as well math and personality. I finished them all before the guy who came before me did.

After I submitted my test papers they called me back to decrease my answers for the personality test. When I did I saw that the previous tests have scores and they're pretty high, though I'm still a bit disappointed that there is a mistake or two, for I prefer having perfect scores.

After that I went back to Makati and had my resume photocopied because ePLDT wanted 3 copies of it when I show them my portfolio. The interview was fun and spontaneous.

We all joked around as I was interviewed by three pretty chinese girls and an artist guy and they even asked me to make a doodle for them, which I gamely did with chibi renditions of them. When the interview was over I thought it was too fast compared to the all-day I went through at Boni.

As I wondered if I said anything wrong at the interview at ePLDT (is it when they asked if I watch Meteor Graden?), I went on to meet Rolynelle's friend who's needing a background artist. He's kinda cute. But he already has a girlfriend hahaha!

Anyway the gig sounds exciting, but he may not be able to pay me as much as I'd need to be paid. I'll see if I can give the project a shot. As much as I'm interested, I'm already taking plenty of 'charity jobs' (gigs I do not do for the money, but because I know they need my help even if they can't afford it) as it is.

If I can't take this one in I'll recommend other artists and help in any other way I can :)

update: ePLDT called today! Their boss wants to talk to me tomorrow 11am! So it's not the Meteor Garden after all! Ahehehe, hope this works out... this one sounds good :D

Wow, then I'll go to my Lolo Pros' book launching of his 8th "Hardin ng Panalangin" book at Kingfisher in Rockwell at 6pm tomorrow! Wheeeeee!

watch the play "The Story of Rahab"!

Wunan just texted me saying he just bought a copy of my indie in comic quest! Wheeeee! Thanks! Hope more people buy them!

Time? I'd rather teleport. And why acid? i'd rather water. eagle?... rather have raven. and i'm actually weak against cold. as for weapon i'd much rather have a sturdy staff ;)

heheh, yeah. I'm playing nox as a conjurer. And during the day I mind the store sespecially now that we're having our second garage sale.

check it out! we have working washing machines costing a thousand or two (we bought a new one with a dryer na kasi. long story), old clothes (if you're into retro you can get em at ten bucks a piece), old shoes (too many shoes), old mags(cosmo, ym, etc from PhP5 to PhP20). And accessories like fancy rings and necklaces at PhP1 each.

And we still sell food.

AND JAC STRIPS FOR YOU IS ALREADY AVAILABLE IN COMIC QUEST!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO BLOSSOM TING!

I'm deciding between Warcraft3: Frozen Throne or Tomb Raider III.

Given a choice, I'd love to play Frozen Throne because I already played Reign of Chaos and enjoyed it immensely. Problem is the stupid game won't run. My PC hangs everytime it shows the menu.

So I'm sort of forced to play Tomb Raider 3. As much as I enjoy watching the hot Lara Croft running around, it could only entertain for so long. First-person games aren't exactly my favorite, besides the fact that a friend told me it's the hardest Tomb Raider game ever!

I'll try installing Warcraft3 again one last time. If it still doen't work I'm going back to Lara. I'm beginning to enjoy finding secret areas in her mansion ;)

here's another webcomic I follow. I found this through azrael.

this strip got me laughing so hard! check it out here.

"JAC STRIPS FOR YOU!" AVAILABLE NOW IN



I went to Ortigas last Thursday to meet someone. After that I went to Comic Quest to propose a consignment. When the ladies there told me I had to bring a letter first and have it approved before it can be decided whether I can sell my indies there I rushed off to look for a PC place where I can type and print out the dang letter.

Luckily I found Pacific Internet Cafe at the Cyberzone in Megamall. As soon as I had the letter printed I ran back down to basement where Comic Quest is. Thankfully the owner Mike Simbulan was there, for he is very easy to talk with. I gave him my letter and 10 copies and told him that it's ok to start selling as soon as his office approves. He told me I can call Monday to know how it turns out.

After that I looked for Comics Central Headquarters (CCHQ) along Katipunan, Diliman. My thanks to Sherry Baet, Joanah Tinio, Claire Villacorta and all my other friends who recommended the place to me. The ladies there are very supportive of indie comics. And they gave me no trouble at all. They just looked through a copy to make sure there's no mature content and agreed then & there to sell. Nice huh? :)

I looked through their Indie Shelf and picked out a P60 indie with a colored cover and another indie called Chop Suey by Claire and Paolo. I wanted to buy a lot of other indies but I didn't that much money at the moment. I'm very happy to see Carpool, Cresci Prophecies and Armor Troopers. After that I went home ;)

STRIP SITE updated!

Four new colored strips! New front page! And a few announcements at the bottom.

10 copies now available at COMICSDEN.COM in San Pablo City!
Someone bought my sample copy before I even left my ten copies there! Wheeeeeeeeeee!

I plan to leave 10 copies each at Comicsden.com, Comic Quest and CCHQ. Will announce it here at my blog when I drop them off. I made 50 copies for the first run.
If I hear of any events where I can sell my indies I'm there ;)

Oh, and if anyone of you are willing to color my front page for free let me know ;D

darna strip colored! when I color 3 or 4 more new strips I'm linking them to the strip site ;)

drifter page colored!

How to Get a POSTAL ID
(At least when you're in San Pablo)

(The day before:) Get yer barangay clearance (P20) and sedula(P30?). Have them photocopied. Get at least 3 pieces of 2" x 2" ID pics.

Get yer cute li'l ass to City Post Office by 8:30am. Get an application form, fill it out, stick a pic on the indicated box and stalk yer postman.

ME: (barges at the back of the Post Office) "Which one of you delivers to my area?"
POSTMAN: "...That would be me."

Get him to sign your application form. He told me to have it notarized by a lawyer. I eventually found a notarial service office at the building/house right beside that Big Mac stall in the corner. They charged me P100.

Have the picture-paseted, postman-signatured, lawyer-notarized paper photocopied.

Go back to Post Office. Hand over the oh-so-important paper, its photocopy, the photocopy of your barangay clearance, the photocopy of your sedula, your other 2 pics, and yer money (P150 for the oh-so-important form, P20 for the "documen-chuchu" stamp, P24 for ID lamination).

Wait a while. magpa-kyut. magpahinga dahil sa haba ng nilakad. And maya-maya lang you'll get a brand-spanking new, hot-off-the-laminating-machine POSTAL ID! Wheeeeee!

I didn’t update my blog until I moved the tagboard to someplace more permanent. So there :D

The Campus Tour was a lot of fun. I missed UST so much. And it’s really great to see my friends again. It was pretty amusing when Wilson called out my name across Lacson (formerly known as Forbes Street) because we all thought I couldn’t make it. Ryan was at his usual best teaching the pretty students of UST in a workshop with Wilson. Tintin printed out call cards for us three including her bro John. They look cool! She even modified a pic to make it look like my “jack”(as in “jack&stone”) logo. Syeri sat on my lap when I sat on her chair beside Joanah. The three of us had fun hanging out.

We all had free lunch provided by the UST Commerce event’s organizers. Yummy! We watched Lilo&Stitch as we ate. I felt kinda sad when lunch was over and the movie was not because I never really got to watch that movie. Ever. Derrick went there too and talked mecha with John. He later drove me to the bus terminal when I had to go home to Laguna after lunch. Much appreciated because the bag I was carrying weighed a ton. Hope you guys are doing better now J

I’ve been staying in Manila since September 1 for a sort of project. Tintin is so nice to let me stay at her place! I’m so happy! And her family’s so cool! I’m supposed tp spend twelve days there, meaning two weeks Mondays to Saturdays. But since my dad came home from China also on September 1 and will stay only 2 weeks, I asked to spend the 12 days into 3 Monday-to-Thursday weeks, so I could at least spend Fridays and Saturdays home in Laguna with dad.

Tintin actually let me stay for 2 weeks, bless her! But as I don’t want to abuse her kindness I am looking for another place to stay for my third (and last) week. The best I could find is the old dorm I stayed in Washinton, Makati. They charge P100/day for transients, and if you don’t have an electric fan you don’t have a prayer. It explains why we sometimes walk around half-naked in the dorm. It’s sweltering in there :p

I’m still looking for another place, preferably near LRT Taft. The only other friend who offered a place for me to crash is Azrael. It’s really nice of him, too bad he ain’t a girl ;D

As for the indie, I’ve already printed them out. I just need a clear photocopier, I think they call it powder copies. The best deal I could find is with La Suerte in San Pablo, P1.75 back to back. But they’re closed on Sundays. If they were open I would have been happily photocopying away as I speak. I only hope I could find better deals in Manila. I’m bringing the original printouts there just in case. Joanah mentioned a place in Diliman where it’s P0.60, I wonder though if that’s the back-to-back rate, and if it’s the clear powder copy. Anyway it sounds pretty far.

And one of my clients is asking for a banner quote. I mean they're looking for someone to make them a banner of an ad I made for them. I guess the proportions are like that of an A3. And send it to Hong Kong. If you're interested to take this on email me at jactinglim@yahoo.com
