hi there guys,, its been weeks since i last posted here due to finals week...been worrying with some things...
some things i shouldn't be worrying about!! except for my grades i should be worrying about that!!! hahaha..anyways...there's nothing much going on with me right now..except those things i shouldn't worry about and this term's grades...so just wanted to update here...:)

Goodevening guys...

just want to tell you something more about me this past few days...weeks actually...i've been searching for a part time job or project or a money making job, well..just because i needed money and experience...money for my allowance because you see i'm a sister of five and it's kinda hard for us to budget our money... experience because i wanted to see if i can handle myself alone in the office working and if i can handle stress...which is different from "school stress"... i am somewhat confident with myself...haha..yes somewhat...because i'm still in the process of adjusting myself in a new environment that i'm creating..which is "the new me"..new perspective in life, new lifestyle( the way i handle myself in situations and the way i eat), new "julyn".

i want a new "julyn" who is a positive thinker, fast learner, never lazy (i hope), trustworthy (not that im not trustworthy but i want to put the word into the next level), and more faithful to GOD.

what i've been doing these past weeks...search the net for jobs...where? at jobstreet.com , freelancer.ph, and in  odesk.com which is by the way still loading...because of the low signal the wifi is giving me grrr....and i've been called for an interview this saturday and i've actually prepared my resume which i whis they'll like and i'm not even sure if it's the appropriate resume for the company i'm applying...i kinda made a little twitch and turns there...so guys.,.wish me luck :)

and i hope someone call me again for another interview...

hi everyone...
i made this yesterday evening...it wasn't supposed to look like that but as it turns out it became like THAT...haha...karlo is my youngest cousin in my mother's side..the reason i made this is because my aunt told me that he was praying for me every night!! he's only 3 years old and i was touched by the thought that a little angel is praying for me...i think he will be coming here in the Philippines on June...the last time i saw him was when i was in Singapore for a vacation and that was last month...at first he doesn't know me because it was hard for him to say my name (julyn) he keeps on calling me jewel (the name of my younger sister)..then days passed and finally he can say my name..yey!! and from then on i didn't know that he was praying for me until my aunt told me..

Made from Adobe illustrator cs5

This is one of my plates in school...my professor told us to choose a hero from marvel or dc comics and..i picked "the flash"... the image of flash is not mine actually,..i just copied the image and drew it again in Photoshop using a pen tablet...then i opened it in adobe illustrator because we need to submit it in AI file..so yup...what i did is..i created layers,layers,layers, and layers of flash's colors...and yup...that's the result of creating layers and layers and layers..oohhh..and layers of colors...

but...before this image was created...i wasn't able to sleep early for three days...not just because i have other subjects to take care of but also because my older brother sabotaged my work..i don't know what he did but what happened was, he pressed something on the keyboard and the next thing i know is.....the layersssssssss...of my plate is all gone!!! shocked by what happened i found myself staring at the screen for i think 3 mins. then started to cry and well, guess what? i shouted at my brother...surprised??? haha...duh..who wouldn't shout at someone who just sabotaged your three sleepless nights of work by just clicking something on the keyboard..and believe me I've pressed undo for like a hundred times but it didn't work so..yes...i'll just start again with my unsaved work and that is just the upper part of the body and it's due tomorrow!!! and yeah...again..another sleepless night...

They say that to finish something wonderful you have to be in good spirits...but in my case i'm in a bad state..i couldn't think straight for thinking of the time wasted, effort thrown just like that and with my brother laughing beside me while i work...then, conscience got him and he apologized and said flowery words of wisdom to me and hugged me...awwww....you see..that is my weakness..i'm afraid to get mad, and i'm sort of a gullible person...easily flattered..easily embarrased...

Hey all...

well I'm new here..and..i decided to have a blog to improve my English and my self-esteem...so bare with me...okay so now its time to introduce myself...My name is Marvilyn but most of my friends call me julyn...I'm 5ft and I'm 19..yes I'm small for my age but It doesn't matter...I love performing, singing,and dancing, which i can't do now, because of school...I'm a third year college student in Mapua Institute of Technology and taking up the course of BS Multimedia Arts and Sciences...and specializes in Graphic design...yes i draw,design, and do stuffs..i like making films but decided to take graphics..I got this course by accident..you see i wanted to become a chef but we don't have enough money and everyone in my family is fat :)...except me...and since i like travelling i decided that i want to be a stewardess but i'm too short so goodbye to that dream, and i also like making buildings so i wanted to become an architect but i can't do math...so i ended up taking Multimedia arts with the influence of my aunt which i ended up loving it so far...For me I've got to do cool stuffs, Discover things and many more...less reading materials more on art stuffs...sounds fun? you bet..

but you see...until now i'm not sure if this is what i really want..i'm not even sure of what i want..they say that i can make lots of money in the future if i take this course but there's always a question inside my head that i can't answer...it's "will i be able to do it?" they're putting a lot of expectations and pressure to me because I'm a sister of five and they're expecting me to help them...and i know a lot of graphic designers who doesn't have a job until now...and i'm afraid that after i graduated i may not be able to find myself a good job...

i have dreams and they're simple...A home of my own, and a home for my mother...to travel around the world and see the wonders of it, a stable yet enjoyable job, my own car, the happiness of my siblings, and maybe a family of my own...but i don't know how to make these dreams come true..That's why i put all my cares to God and just believe in His plans for me...it's better to believe in something than nothing...
