Pale + Mornings + Coffee

• Pale + mornings + coffee

I bravely played with Adobe Illustrator for six hours! I have no idea how to use it honestly but with the help of online tutorials I got to compose something despite being clueless!!!! I have been meaning to do pale illustrations or play with my favorite default palette. This is a different approach, I’d practice more to get really better at it. There’s so much to learn, I’m excited.

I’d compile my digital illustrations in Behance and Instagram.

Hello!

Typing a short update just to announce that I finally changed my blog layout into something cleaner by sticking to one column, calmer colors and lesser details. Idk I felt like I needed a simpler revamp. I kept my old one for the longest time and I think I needed a new look. I really want to focus more on the content and finally buy a legit camera to improve everything so I could post and document better hd photos soon, too.

So, tada!

Me + You: A Love Story 

by Jack Tew

A quick half-day escape after relentlessly battled through pointless meetings and bad city chaos.

Cubao Expo — May 30, 2018

Let me look for the things I lose everytime. It comes back naturally, the idea, the inspiration, the warmth, myself, the love. It never stays long but it does not leave long as well.

"Steady your heart, fighter."

Takes a lot of practice from an energetic human that I am. Actually, torn eh. Sa totoo lang. There are days I question my own guts kasi a lot of people think I got enough but I really am completely just half of it. Hassle kalaban sarili madalas ok. We all have our self-doubts, sobrang kups nalang talaga if one thinks they're better than everyone else. Maybe you are, but nah, kindly cancel yourself out if you ever think that way please lang, no way appealing.

Strong front, mastered it so well because it saved me once, it's hard to admit our own weaknesses especially if somebody already used it against us. Yet again, no, we can't keep ourselves filled with fear kasi we're all bound to hurt anyway. That's how humans function, ipapasok ulit sa eksena yung ganda ng vulnerability, kailangan yun eh. Para may ma-express, may marinig, may sense, lahat. Playing the tough game is a tough play. Harang, somehow self-deceit, repetitive lies we tell ourselves which.... sucks.

People around tapping you saying you need to keep it together. Well, eventually. Um, k thanks pero ang sarap kaya umiyak lang, yakapin yung lungkot tapos mamaya okay ka na ulit. Gets na natin yun eh, so I don't think dapat pa i-conceal yung emotions. Ang ganda kaya, wag kayo magulo.

Bakit ba ko nag-blog ng ganito? Napanood ko ulit kasi yung isang concert ni John Mayer (kiligs) hence interlaced with a good quality speech, as always. Then in a way, naaala ko na mas gusto ko nga pala yung version ng sarili ko kapag alam kong upfront lang ako sa lahat. Iba eh.

Yun.

Hihi. *bye*
