Hello, it looks like I’m going back to school to study a bit of Painting, and this means I really have to finish the construction of my art studio soon.
Hindering its expected progress, however, I recently spent on books I should have bought in the last year or two of book anorexia. Because I recently got back to reading after a long while, I got back to buying books. Unfortunately, I do not like e-books very much. I get headaches from reading from a computer, and there is nothing like holding or more like caressing the fragile yet powerful pages of a book. The smell of these things also bring forth euphoria.
To help me pool resources for my studio though, Joyce bought one of my paintings just today. Thank you very much! I hope it’d look better in her newly renovated room. I wish it’d also bring luck, love and all the best hopes for her future because she’s an awesome gal and a very talented one too!
To my other friends. Do not be shy; buy my stuff! :) Contribute to the success of my future or my book binge, which I assure you would also contribute to the success of my future! I have yet to buy Aristotle, Socrates (through Plato), Plutarch, St. Augustine and a truck-load of philosophy and history books that pretty much will become the canon for the force in my ways of living. Some books will also be relegated to entertainment since I expect long nights and straight weeks of being cooped up in the house trying to create something.
