Midweek Rant with a Cup of Hot Chocolate

in #writing7 years ago (edited)


Hi everyone, how are you doing?

I hope you had a great and not too sleepy start of the week! :d
Jeez, how long have we waited for seasons to change... We definitely need some sunshine to lighten the mood. So everyone will relax and stop panic selling heh.

I was completely exhausted in the last weekend.
I tried to do a lot of different stuff at the same time (Together with one year drawing challenge) and I've just burned up.
So I decided to sit, breath out and take a break for the time being.
I've been thinking about what I've achieved in the last couple of months, about my future goals and what do I have to do to reach the new heights. And I feel like now my head is cleared and I'm able to make the next step.

So what have I been doing in the last days?

With a cup of hot chocolate and some cookies that were always waiting for me patiently on the table.
I've been reading books (Special thanks to Franz Kafka and Alberto Moravia for their unusual writing styles). Not sure if it was the best choice as a relaxing weekend literature, but it was well written.
Some people might not like them though, it's not the easiest pill to swallow because of the peculiar storyline.
But it was very entertaining, I gulped everything down and only now realised that it's already Tuesday and there is a bunch of completed books on the shelf. I can't help it... I'm a book addict.
Seriously, I'm having the best time of my life just by reading my favourite book and sipping a warming drink slowly.
You can't always run somewhere all the time with a fire in your eyes, have to take your time and relax...

Also, I was looking for a digital notepad.

I'm still not sure what's the best choice for me right now.
Seems like I have to go and talk with digital artists to understand what I need.
Something like that one (iPad Pro):



Anyways...

This week I'm going to meet a bunch of people to consult with them and will probably order something fancy.
Not sure what it will be, but whatever, let's decide on the spot lol.
I'm still under the impression of the books that i've read recently.
And my mind is floating somewhere over the rainbow.
So let's postpone this conversation for the next time.

Was happy to see you guys again, wish everyone to have a productive week!
I'm open to any advices about good Digital Notepads.

Sort:  

How you doin, you haven't posted for a while :D
Everything fine, how's your drawing?)

Well... I'm not a blogger, I just chat and post sometimes.
So it happens if I feel like postin :d

I had a break with drawing, was tired like hell...
Whole last week I was immersed in reading, it was amazing. I had the best time of my life!
Only a couple days ago started drawing again. My hand already can't live without pen lol.
If I don't have it with me I start thinking what I want to draw instead heh.

I'm also full of exam stuff. Finally, have a minute to chat.
Funny thing - I don't use any social media platform, I go to chat on steemit, what's wrong with me lol.
You should show some of your new works. I'm curious to see them.
I know you're probably also busy with other stuff and don't have time to post. All of your content always has a very high quality. I think if you posted everyday you would be one of the top bloggers here. Think about it chimichanga brother :D

Okay, okay. I'll think about it lmao.

Anyway, I'm also gonna start posting more soon, my study schedule is not that horrible right now.
Come and chat sometimes, don't forget about potato :'((

I use a Wacomb, but the Ipad Pro is quite appealing.
Alberto Moravia is a bit edgy for a weekend read :) He was rightfully critical of mid 20th century middle class society. I wonder what he would think today of the condition of Rome and society in general...

You mean Wacom? (Haven't found anything related to Wacomb).
Okay, thanks I'll check it out :0)

Lol yes, a Wacom. Don't know where that 'b' came from. :D

Let's see what fancy stuff you are gonna order later :D I like that - decide on the spot!

Sup, It's just digital something for drawing, not sure yet what I want though :D

The Ipad will save you space for sure. I thought you were gonna go for drawing Pad for the PC and draw on photoshop. That’s an option too you may consider. :)

I mean... it's uncomfortable when you use a drawing Pad and then it appears on the PC screen later.
I'll go speak with people first, to understand how it works :D
(But I might get one to draw on photoshop, who knows).

Well you just need to get used to it. What I’ve heard is that once you do it feels no different from drawing on a piece of paper.

Maybe, dunno. I'll figure it out later :d

@yaan, a cup of chocolate accompany the evening, very enjoyable .. steem on

Indeed! :0)

This is lovely, everyone needs to ask him/herself that same question, what have you achieved in the last couple of months...nice post by the way, coffe is my favorite

Thanks, sometimes it's not too bad to relax and take a breather :0)

Love the choice of music, btw. Totally adding it to my playlist of creative thinking. ^^

Reagarding the things one has accomplished, I think it's really good to look back and realize what one has accomplished every two or so months.

Btw, what fancy thing are you gonna order?

I'm not sure about realizing accomplishments every couple months lol.
But reorganising things might help :0)
Digital Notepad.

Thanks, have fun :)

Hi @bycoleman, It's nice to meet you. I know that you use minnowbooster, I see a lot of people who delegated their votes to minnowbooster on your posts upvote list (Together with other voting bots btw). It's kinda funny and sad at the same time that you talk about other people who are using boosters. When you use them on your own.
So... I'm just lost for words. Seriously. Just sit in silence and facepalming.

Oh, yeah, transparency and community. let's build it together, hooray? Thanks for your concern for the platform? I'll think about it.

Oh right, here is my upvote, thanks for your "hard work", I guess.

Yes, you are so correct, I have used them and used them recently. I have now made the decision that I will no longer use them. I hope you will do the same, they are destroying our platform.

The comment that was posted is simply bringing to light true transparency and you are welcome to do the same with any of my post.

Blessings!

Err... Do what you wanna do that's not my business and I'll do my own stuff. If I feel like boosting - then so be it.

Let me see if I have this right. You JUST joined steemit in Dec..... You already have rep 58 and almost 4k sp (over 6k if we count your delegation) so NOW after your account is looking pretty nice.... you feel the need for everyone else to not use these bid bots? I'm really not trying to be funny but I'm a little confused because right now (Literally right now as I am typing) you are still waiting on payouts that you have paid for bid-bots on.

Okay, guys, chill lmao.
Even if his strategy right now is - to buy lots of cheap delegations (while steem is going up) and then burn his SP everyday to 80% on his transparencybot for profits it's his choice. I'm fine with it. Otherwise, there is no point if there is no profit.
Actually, it's a very nice strategy. What a great mastery of scheming :D
I wouldn't think about something like that on my own.

Perhaps someone else should be running the bot, does it really matter? It is about transparency, not about me or you. Just the platform and its future. TransparencyBot is non-profit.

I have made a personal choice to no longer use bidbots due the devastating effects they are having, each person is free to make their own decisions, these comments offer information only and do not downvote.

It is amazing the result of digital art, you are skilled with that! I did not expect how everything would end.

Where did you find my digital art? I clearly said that I'm only going to buy a drawing Notepad.
