Finally! I can come clean about this: The Design Processs. I mean, I’ve been doing design commissions for almost a decade now and I’ve always wanted to write about all the ridiculous requests for revisions but I can’t. However, this year (until probably early next year), I’m taking a break from commissions so I can […]
Hello, hello! Thanks to everyone who have previously attended the watercolor, lettering, digitizing & doodling workshops! 🙂 People have been asking about other workshops aside from Watercolor & Brush Lettering lately so this month, we tried (re)introducing some workshop formats. *I honestly want to share some life story here or some fun & funny lines
Twenty-four hours ago, I found myself irked after seeing another “Huhuhu…I’m not so good at this” Instagram entry below an awesome photo / artwork / lettering work. It was also coupled with seemingly tortured and crying emojis. While typing this now, I don’t actually quite remember why it hit a nerve last night that it
As I’ve mentioned in the previous post, I’m such a bad blog owner. I wasn’t able to celebrate the Googly Gooeys birthday last April 26. And, it’s their 6th birthday at that! (And, I’m not supposed to be starting my sentences with ‘and’). But, I have a really good excuse and I’ll let you know
I’m so bad, it was the Googly Gooeys’ 6th birthday yesterday but I haven’t written about it. I have my draft but I don’t feel like it’s time to upload it yet so instead of coming up with something half-baked, I’d rather write about something else instead. 😉 *Yeah, apparently, birthdays can be postponed.* Anyhooz,
As you know, the real-life couple behind the Googly Gooeys is married. *Oh wait, why am I talking about myself in the third person?* Anyway, these days, the usual question we get is “When are you having kids?” or “Are you pregnant?” So, we needed to rely on you dear Googly readers to refresh our memory since
Speaking of messy, I hope you guys can join us on Saturday at Common Thread in Rockwell for the Bensimon DIY Series! 🙂 Bensimon is a sneaker brand from France. It’s made of canvas and it’s fullly customizable. They have so many colors too! 🙂 The Bensimon brand has been around since 1975 and it
Recently, people have been asking, “Do you guys travel a lot?” I usually reply with “No, not really.” I think we just got lucky with the Big Blog X and the Globe x NBA Trip to New York. Then, I just realized the week before Holy Week, we had to tour some relatives in Baguio
So I was looking at my shins the other day and I noticed a couple of bruises here and there. I don’t actually know where I got them. I might have: (a) accidentally kicked myself while dancing / skating or (b) I must have hit the edge of our bed…again. Then, the other day, I
Yep, when I workout, a part of me dies a little each time. Days and hours before, I’m usually excited but some 15 minutes before my class, I usually end up asking myself “Why am I here? Why do I have to subject myself to pain?” But, I always end up leaving calmer, contented and
Whoa! I can’t believe that it’s been almost two months since we came home from our trip to new york thanks to Globe x NBA! Well, before anything else, I’d like to describe Ponggo to you when he’s watching practically any sport on TV in the comic below. My friends have been asking, why does Ponggo
I must admit, a lot of times, I’m the one who’s tactless and I tend blurting out random comments. On certain occasions, I even find myself thinking, “Oh gosh! Did I just say that out loud? That was supposed to be a private thought.” Anyway, at other times, I’m at the receiving end of these
13 years ago today, Ponggo and I discovered we were each other’s crush. Locally, you would call it MU which is short for Mutual Understanding. (So kids, what do you call it these days?) Anyway, at that time, we were both completing our practicum. He was always so sweet. He would always ask me if
You Must Be Pregnant! Well, first of all, this is not an April Fool’s joke. Read on! 🙂 If you’re my age or in my situation when you’re married for a good number of years, people are expecting you to have a kid already. It’s just getting asked when you’re going to have a boyfriend
Hello Guys, I’ll be leaving you with Ponggo today. *Oh gawd. You just don’t know how happy I am when he blogs. Which is like once to twice a year!?* But, before I do so, I’m leaving you with this doodle! 😉 -Tipsy How many devices do you need to bring every single day? Me,
I still clearly remember that moment when I was 6 years old. I was staring at a bunch of stationeries and art materials. I told myself that someday, when I grow up and have a job, I will be able to buy all the art materials I wanted! That was the time when I would
So, last week, when I was finally done with my deadlines, I suddenly felt human…and sort of pathetic actually. My sched freed up and I practically told everyone whom I declined having dinner / hangout / roadtrip / movie / watercolor date with this year: “I have a life now!!?!?!? Let’s meet soon!” Well,
Look who’s on a blogging spree after being absent for more than a week here? Yes, as promised, this is not at all dramatic compared to the last one. Today is the 14th day of March (i.e. 3.14) which means it’s International Pi Day–the 16th character of the Greek alphabet & the ratio of a
I was able to unearth an unfinished cartoon post I did a couple of months back. This was the time when my mood got the best of me. I was sleeping at 3am and waking up by 6am for three days then and by the end of it, I realized, I actually literally turned into
I’ve been getting requests for workshops for over three years before I finally started it. I told Ponggo that I might be the introvert of introverts because while everyone already had their watercolor and lettering sessions, I was deathly afraid to face people. Well, apparently, introverts can be trained. As long as I get to
