Got Tagged

It been a while since I browse around people's blog and then found out that i been tagged by Sakura chan . Usually I dun even bother to reply to tags. But for the sake of fun and the tags seems rather interesting, so i give it a go.
Btw, there actually 4 tags but i left out the last 2 since both involved editing a picture and i dun feel like starting up my photoshop now. Maybe next time. Gome ne, Sakura chan ;)

1st tag
list (8) random facts about yourself :
  1. I'm a shy, quiet guy which kinda boring to have around.. me think. But drop me among my siblings or close friends and i can be quite annoying and loud.
  2. Plain blur like sotong. But sometimes, it's best to act blur.
  3. Slow and steady. I like to take my time working at something- which might not a good thing on a job with a deadline. But my works almost always turn out above average.
  4. Spent RM 2000 ++ on multi-level marketing products which turn out useless in the end. Sworn never to get myself into any of those again.
  5. I'm fashion blind. My clothes are mostly hands-me-down from my relatives. And dun really interested in buying new clothes even on Chinese New Year. Plain simple and comfortable.
  6. Three must-go-places when I'm in the shopping complex- general book store, scale model/ hobby shop and anime or manga related shop.
  7. Usually watch movies alone in the cinema.
  8. Can be really indecisive at times. But usually like to act at the spur of the moment.

2nd Tag
8 things I’m passionate about:
  1. Jaw-dropping digital illustrations and trying reach that greatness myself.
  2. Anime and manga. They are what which drives me on this road called life. Anything related to them, be it toys, music, magazines, events etc etc. It's good to be an otaku.
  3. My current love- my 6 years old PC. Spent most of my free time in front of it. Extremely protective of its well being. Regreted of leaving it in the hand of my bro for almost a year while i'm in hometown. So sorry, dear.
  4. Going online. Blogging, chatting, sharing stuffs, playing games, reading- almost everything i did i did them online. If only i can work online too.
  5. Friends and family. I learned that to fully enjoy life, you must have them both. Appreciate them well.
  6. Video games espesially RPGs. Real life can be extremly dull without them. Living through different lives at the price of one.
  7. Sci-fi and fantasy movies. Nothing beats the feeling of watching fantastic creatures and epic stories on the big srceen.
  8. Reading newspaper, book or mag while having breakfast, lunch or dinner. It's one of those moments that i like to be left alone till i finish either of them or both.

8 things i say often:
  1. shoot !
  2. erm..
  3. ah/ hah?
  4. yo~
  5. honto ni?
  6. wa sai~
  7. i know...
  8. kk

8 books or mag I’ve read recently:
  1. 50 Robots To Draw & Paint
  2. Venom vs Carnage paperback
  3. The Animator's Survival Kit
  4. Dik Cergas (Crayon Shin Chan) Vol. 47
  5. GameAxis March 08 Vol 4 Issue 12
  6. Capcom Design Works artbook
  7. Gempak Isu 201
  8. Powder Isu 5

8 things to do before I die:
  1. Win an Oscar in any category, especially Best Animation :D
  2. Publish a few graphic novels.
  3. Travel around Japan.
  4. Fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after.
  5. Own a least 2 properties.
  6. Create my own video games or at least have my own designed characters in them.
  7. Six pack abs.
  8. Have the resources to collect anime related figurines that fill up a big sized room.

8 songs I could listen to over and over again:
  1. Houshi Boushi by Younha
  2. Sorairo Days by Shoko Nakagawa
  3. Sen no Yoru wo Koete by Aqua Timez
  4. Chance To Shine by Akino
  5. Every Little Thing by Grip!
  6. Home Sweet Home by Yuki
  7. Sakura Kiss by Chieco Kawabe
  8. Say Nothing At All by Ronan Keating

8 things I learn in the last year:
  1. Never let anyone decide for me that can alter my life. Make my own damn decision and stick to it.
  2. Never get too rely on others- even close relatives.
  3. A slacker's life sucks. No money, no purpose, no friends, no life.
  4. Asks and be enlightened or choose to remain quiet and ignorant.
  5. Of all the good things while living in Singapore, it can't beat the familiarity and comfort of my own country. And it's overated.
  6. Divine counseling can be quite intimating and surreal experience. Especially facing with the priest acted as a medium for a an underworld deity. Then again, what he know about the 21st century mortal world.
  7. There's a lot more budding artists with great talents locally than I have imagined. So better buck up.
  8. "A digital illustrator using a mouse to paint is akin to a chef using a hammer to cook although they can get the job done in the end."- a member of Imaginary Friends studio. Meaning, get the best tool for the job.

So there is it. Apparently i have to tag another 8 people but i really dun like things that work like a chain letter. So if anyone of you wish to reply these tags, do let me know :D
