Belated Happy Chinese New Year

We watched the fireworks right outside our office as the malls arranged for this big Chinese New Year show with Dragon dance. But since we're all busy working, we didn't get to see it. But we onjoyed the fireworks nonetheless :) I hope our American bosses got to see it, since they went on back to their hotel. Hayy... I miss you too, Bebe and babies, as well as the rest of my loving family ;) Happy New Year to you all!

Pilya Song of the Moment

Don'tcha

Baby
Ladies
Fellas
Are you ready?
Lets dance
Baby

I know you like me (I know you like me)
I know you do (I know you do)
Thats why whenever I come around
She's all over you (she's all over you)
I know you want it (I know you want it)
It's easy to see (it's easy to see)
And in the back of your mind
I know you should be fucking me (babe)


refrain:
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was a freak like me?
Don't cha
Don't cha
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was raw like me?
Don't cha wish your girlfriend was fun like me?
Don't cha
Don't cha

Fight the feeling (fight the feeling)
Leave it alone (leave it alone)
Cause if it ain't love
It just ain't enough to leave my happy home (my happy home)
Let's keep it friendly (let's keep it friendly)
You have to play fair (you have to play fair)
See I dont care
But I know she ain't gonna wanna share

refrain:

I know I'm on your mind
I know we'd have a good time
I'm your friend
I'm fun
And I'm fine
I ain't lying
Look at me shine
You ain't blind (you ain't blind)

I know she loves you (I know she loves you)
So I understand (I understand)
I probably be just as crazy about you
If you where my own man
Maybe next lifetime (maybe next lifetime)
Possibly (possibly)
Until then, oh friend your secret is safe with me

refrain:

Commissioned Nude Portrait

A friend of mine had this lovely idea to give her bf a nude portrait of herself for Christmas. When she asked me if I know anyone who draws nudes, I answered "I don't really know anybody who draws nudes, but I could give it a try."

We found it to be a good idea because we don't have to worry about her getting naked to a total stranger anymore. And I'm a girl! So if any of you girls want a nude portrait done lemme know ^_^ Her boyfriend liked it, btw.

Basically we just met up and went to her apartment because I believe that's where she'd be most comfortable in, given the circumstances. We were really glad we've already been friends since college so that means we're comfortable enough with each not to get self-conscious.

Boy was I wrong.

"So do I take off my clothes now?"

"Um, let's figure out your pose first!"

So we spent the next few minutes figuring out what pose would be ok. I brought my digicam to take pics of her (fully-clothed) in different poses so she can see for herself in the LCD screen how it looks.

Surprisingly, it was a bit trickier than I thought.

I gave up and just asked "Ok, what are you most proud of about yourself?"

"My body, of course!"

Er, she didn't exactly said it that way, but she basically said she's proud of both her assets. So I figured it might require her to twist, which, come to think of it, could be sexy as well!

"Sit down on the bed."

She did, but I interrupted.

"No, face away from me."

I guess she was a little puzzled, but she's quick to figure it out herself. Soon enough we got her turning her face towards me, so her body arched in that cute pose: sitting on the bed, so I could see the length of her back, then I told her to let her feet extend to the right, then turn left to face me.

I snapped a picture and showed her the preview screen. She's ok with it.

"So now do I take off my clothes?"

"Um, yeah."

"Eeee! I'm actually gonna do it! I'm gonna pose naked!"

While I was thinking "Eeee! I'm actually gonna draw somebody naked!"

So yeah, she was nude, then assumed the pose we agreed on, then I snapped the pic. Ok, ok... I snapped more than one, then let her choose the best of the bunch. After she did I deleted the rest, then got ready to leave.

"That's it?"

"Yup."

"I thought..."

"So did I, but now that I have the digicam with me, I figured you don't have to pose naked and (uncomfortably stiff!) for goodness knows how long. Less chances of getting caught, or getting walked in, etc."

I assured her that I would transfer the photo to my personal flash drive and delete it from my digicam before I bring it anywhere to take any more pics. I brought it home and got to work on the hours while every one of my housemates are out. I also explained it to them anyway, so they check first if it was open in my computer before they approach me, so I could close it first. I also put passwords all over the files that were related to the artwork, just to be safe.

She told me I could upload it after she gives the original to her bf, so he would be the first one to see it. Thanks so much! Now I know I can make nude portraits! (thinks) ... but only of girls XD

In case you're wondering how this happened, here's a close up of the 'pirated' Animagus book he got:



So please, PLEASE do not buy pirated wizarding books. Even in Recto ;) (jk!)

Peace and Happy holidays to all!

Wushu

Heheh, whattayear it is! I drew this as I remembered the time I joined the Bikini Bodies 2005. For the 'talent portion' we are required to model a swimsuit to a music track of our choice. I took all measures to make sure no one finds out what I'm going to do, for already some of the contestants ended up having identical songs(yipes!).

I'm just glad that no one else thought of taking their own spin in the wushu scene of Final Flight of the Osiris from Animatrix. Thongs weren't allowed (whew!) so I wore a red bandeau and matching bikini bottom. Then Raipo managed to get Homer to lend me a wushu sword(thanks Homer!) before he gave me tips in some fighting moves based on arnis while Ranulf thought up some cool choreography which he made up out of Kenjutsu (and maybe lots of Highlander episodes ;).

I'm also glad everyone loved my performance onstage that night ^_^ While almost everyone else danced to their music, I executed some sword moves with the wushu sword! Whee!

HACKED!

In case "I" chatted with you between last Saturday afternoon to today, chances are, it wasn't me. For I was offline the whole time I was spending the 3-day holiday in Laguna.

A friend told me that "I" went online and chatted "me" up. When I didn't reply he sent me a txt message asking if I was online. I said no and that's when I realized that my Yahoo Messenger has been hacked. I TRIED to get online, but the Loser kept logging back in, hence signing ME out. Several times.

In the end I finally managed to change my password so the Loser was unable to make me sign out anymore. Apologies to anyone who may have experienced any nastiness thanks to "me" while I was offline.

Take PILYA anywhere!

You can even take her home with you ;) if you have Smart WAP, that is. All you gotta do is get online with your Smart mobile, check out What's New, and choose Komiks Network. You'll find PILYA there where you can download her comics into your phone.

To download PILYA via the SMART WAP site:

Go to SMART WAP site: http://wap.smart.com.ph
Select What's New.
Choose Komiks Network.
And most importantly, choose Pilya ;)

Babies!!!

May I introduce to you the newest baby in the house, our little princess Grace. She's my niece! And of course, here's the new 'ahia', Mikko, my 3-yr old nephew and godkid:







He already starred in my strips before: smarties 1 2 3

Congrats EJ!!!

Remember EJ? I was checking my Friendster and found that she updated her photos so I found out that she and her husband have already opened their gym! And I also want to take this chance to congratulate her for winning the ladies' category of Men's Health Best Body.

UPDATE: She told me that if you refer 10 of your friends to sign up at their gym, you get a FREE 1-yr membership!

Jay Eff Kay as Unabomber

Here's another commission where Jay Eff Kay wanted his face to be superimposed to the Unabomber-sketch by Jeanne Boylan.

Wonky Yahoo Mail

I'm really getting fed up by this. I've been using my Yahoo mail since 1998 but since last month I seem to be noticing that noone has been receiving my emails, no matter how many times I've emailed them. Especially when I attach files to them.

I really hope Yahoomail resolves this issue immediately, for my freelance job relies in their service a lot. I had to open a mail account at their competitor's just to be able to successfully email the needed files to my clients.
