fun rating: 8

usefulness: 8

ease: 5 ( you will have to know the basics to get this )

blog: One of the things I had to do as community manager for the videogame company I worked for was create little picture vignettes for the blog. I was already semi-in love with photoshop but the 6 months of using it, with a minimum of 3 times a week for 6 months ,had  totally sealed the deal.

conclusion: Photoshop skills doesnt actually  make you a geek but it is fun to use particularly if you happen are kuripot like me  & you refuse to waste money on a lomo camera.

Cheers

As I have said before , my walkthrough for life is Rudyard Kipling’s IF. Steve Jobs  has been a personal hero for me for a very long time because he is the first person I have read about that actually was able to

“Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
And stoop and build’em up with worn-out tools;”

I guess it was why I went to EA , it wasn’t working for Steve Jobs but it was at least in the general direction. I thought if I was somewhere there (physically) I would find what I wanted to love enough to devote the rest of my life .

I . Primed for Action

Imagine I am a professor, Ive asked you to come to my office. You walk down a long corridor, come through the doorway, and sit down at the table. In front of you is a sheet of paper with a list of five word sets. I want you to make a grammatical four word sentence as quick as possible. Its called a Scrambled Sentence Test. Ready?

“At the final round, Hollywood actor William Baldwin asked Venus what the biggest mistake of her life was and what she did to fix it. Venus answered, “In my 22 years of existence, I can say that (I haven’t had a major, major problem) because I am very confident with my family and the love that they are giving to me so thank you so much that I am here. Thank you so much.” “

You know them. I know them. We have watched them from afar in safety . They are taller, fairer, and physically gifted. They are queen bees that everyone buzzes around. They are class president, cheerleader,jock and social butterfly all rolled in one.They have a fabulous smile and are surrounded by friends. They usually have one or two accesory  friends/assistants/sidekicks that  second all their thoughts like an echo with ambidexterous thumbs. They can be fashionable or kick it in t-shirts and sneakers and it wouldnt matter. They are on the top of the social heirarchy and rule with a colgate perfect smile.

I love Eraserheads. The few times I was able to visit the Philippines when I was younger before relocating here permanently . I would play eraserheads on my walkman in the airport till right before lift off. It was a little bit of home that I would hum in my head till my tone deaf ears could no longer remember the melody.
