Gilmore Girls etc.

Okay, the entrance test season has arrived and it began with the biggest and the toughest exam. I gave the NID ( thats National Institute of Design) entrance exam a couple of weeks ago and whatever hopes I had of "maybe" getting through this year had vanished within the first hour of the commencement of the test! But it wasn't really much worse than I expected.

So, i have been coding the DesignInk layout all this while and there's a couple of pages put up at www.designink.in. Atleast the contact page is fully done. I always fall in love with coding websites everytime I start a new one, and then get bored before its finished.

Also, I found the best thing ever on the net! Well, best thing for me atleast, unless you are a Gilmore Girls fan too (thats a show by the way). On alluc.org. There are all these amazing shows and even movies and anime stuff too that you can watch online, and I am totally addicted to the GG episodes! Even though I have already read all the transcripts of all the seasons so there's nothing new I am watching (But they still rock!).

Okay, guess I am done ranting...
No new design stuff either. Although I totally fell in love with this person's work on dA. Her website is rockable.de and fully rocks (get it? rocks, rockable? ok, bad PJ.)

LORELAI: Huh. You know what I just realized? 'Oy' is the funniest word in the entire world.
RORY (Lorelai's daughter): Huh.
LORELAI: I mean, think about it. You never hear the word oy and not smile. Impossible. Funny, funny word.
EMILY (Lorelai's mom): Oh dear God.
LORELAI: Poodle is another funny word.
EMILY: Please drink your drink, Lorelai.
LORELAI: In fact, if you put oy and poodle together in the same sentence, you’d have a great new catch phrase, you know? Like, oy with the poodles already. So from now on, when the perfect circumstances arise, we will use our favorite new catch phrase.
RORY: Oy with the poodles already.

(Ah! Love 'em!)

DesignInk.in

 

Yay!! I now finally have my own domain name and a website free of freewebs ads! Its at www.designink.in. Don't try going there as there's just an image-less placeholder page there beacuse I have yet to code the layout thats gonna be on the site. Though I did setup the WordPress blog there. Click here to see it.

I guess now I don’t really have any more excuses to postpone coding the DesignInk layout. Gonna have to do it asap so I can have more than that lonely blog online. :P

My IQ

My IQ test report from Tickle.com. My score was 140! ...ugh...big report...

The Classic IQ Test
My Result: Visionary Philosopher



Your mind's strengths allow you to think ahead of the game — to imagine or anticipate what should come next in just about any situation. Because you're equally skilled in the numerical and verbal universes of the brain, you can draw from multiple sources of information to come up with great ideas. The timelessness of your vision and the balance between your various skills are what make you a Visionary Philosopher.

Design Ink: the website

...and... I am back to pink.

This will hopefully be my next website layout. One that I actually code and upload. As excited as I was when I first made it, but the one I have right now has become kinda pretty boring and dull by now. My Current Website. Its also on Freewebs and I am now finally gonna buy my own domain name, so a new layout is in order. :)

Not that the goth fever has subsided. Pink is simply mightier.

Enter The Goth

Yeah baby...I have now officially gone goth. :D :D

This was a lot of fun to draw. Just a couple of colored pencils and black gel pen at 1 AM. And it has absolutely no pink in it. ^_^ Again, those are wings, although they look a lot more like paper strips hanging from her shoulder. :-p
I will probably color it again digitally, with flat blacks and reds. You can't really go flat with pencil colors. And I want those boots ; )

PS: At the risk of sounding like a total sock-freak, I'll just say that I finally bought a pair of black stockings. Just the ones I have wanted for like forever. They are totally common but I just couldn't find them anywhere during the summers.
Here's a crappy photo... of my socks, yeah. I do realize how sock-crazy that is. ; p

Mobile Stand

A few days ago, I was watching the final episode of Top Design and got totally mused up on actually 'creating' something. You know, not 2D as in drawing and stuff. So with the dearth of any craft-related resources at home, this is what I finally coughed up.



Its a mobile stand, not too obviously. And thats red, not pink, as much as I would wish otherwise.

Made with cardboard, tissue paper and acrylic colors. It says 'D' on the lower front, because I gifted it to my friend, Divya.

Well, I am getting more ambitious now. Most probably I'll do a photo-frame next. Just as soon as I can drag myself away from the pc screen :-p. Already bought a bottle of pink acrylic paint ;-).
