[028] Nothing to Lose 沒什麼好失去的

-
I get negative very easily. Especially the thought of drawing comics and making it big in Singapore is more like a dream than reality. Sometimes I wonder why I chose such a difficult path and envied other comic artists, who had published books and made it as a career. But I don't want to live a normal life and hope to leave a mark somewhere, a little reminder that this person had once lived before. I have nothing much to lose now, only time. Nothing is fair in life, but we all have the same time to do either something we like, or don't like. I like to draw (and complain) so I hope to do this for a long time...

我很容易就感到悲觀，特別是在新加坡畫漫畫+出名實在是比登天還難。有時在想幹嘛選擇那麼難走的道路啊？ 看到成功出書和成為職業漫畫家的人時，常常都會感到非常羨慕。我不想平淡地就過完一生，很想在哪裡留一個小足跡，証明有這個人曾經活在這世上。現在我沒什麼好失去的，唯有失去時間而已。人生沒有一件是公平的，唯有時間是大家一樣擁有的。分別只是用時間去做你喜歡的事，還是討厭的事。而我喜歡畫畫（和投訴），所以希望可以永遠一直畫（和投訴）下去...

    angel: Haha thanks! You must buy my book if I'm going to have one! XD

    小卓：靠！這個你還記得，比我媽還厲害！
    我也覺得能堅持到現在是個奇蹟
    因為有文憑做靠山，不行的話還可以當老師（雖然不想又當全職）
    不過那些沒有文憑的人怎麼辦呢...

    fan: Thanks fan for being my fan! Glad to get some feedback about my comics, because I'm always worried that it's not interesting enough >_<

    You have a knack for gags. Seems like you have more potential doing a gag comic rather than a mainstream battle fantasy comic. higher chance of succeeding with a gag comic. When u are successful, rich and famous, don't forget us. (Altho I am anonymous, haha) Love your work btw.

    Wow, thanks Anonymous! I tried really hard to work on those story manga but it was just too difficult and boring to work on the same story for a year...and only completing 34 pages at the end of it! Glad you love my gags! When I'm rich and famous (but maybe no longer young and beautiful), I'll remember all those mysterious anonymous forces~

    Hahaha~~ anonymous indeed!
    I can understand~~ its really tough with all the "external forces" (eg bed, reading comics, watching tv etc etc) blocking U from doing your art.
    But when U think to stop drawing, U can't cos it has become very much a part of U and it defines who U are. Dun give up yah! ^_^/ Be positive!

    Haha, if you think those are external forces, check out these dark forces for women: shopping, girly dinners with gossips, aunty talks, and not just any TV, but HK/Korean drama that goes on forever! Maybe that explains why there are lesser female comic artists???

Boiled coke and ginger lemon for cough

-

This post has nothing to do with Japan, except that I have the tendency to fall sick during long Japanese holidays like year end and golden week. So with weak Japanese medicine not working, and even with kiwis and lemon honey drink all failing, I resorted to my friend's advice: coke and ginger . It sounded unusual so I googled and found the recipe. Amazingly, many people swear that it works wonder to cure their coughs and sore throats, so I decided to try out of desperation because I had already been coughing for four days and four nights. Preparation: Put a can of coke (around 350ml) and sliced ginger into a pot and bring to boil, simmer for 10 mins. You can either add lemon when it was simmering or squeezed lemon juice after you pour into your mug. *I couldn't get old ginger from my Japanese supermarket so I used young ginger that was not so spicy. Verdict: I couldn't believe it, but it tasted rather good! Even my friend who disliked ginger said this remedy taste...
