"Another punk rock summer came and went"

Yeah, so I decided to write down some stuff. I think my last blog is almost a month old. I blogged about the new "Make something cool every day"-stuff I started. And I'm still doing daily projects. Sometimes it's hard to start these drawings but it would be way harder for me to let this die. I'm very happy about the amount of views and positive feedback. I made longcat coasters and they reached 200 views on flickr which is unbelievable. I'm constantly working on new concepts and there are so many things that I want to try. Drawing certainly doesn't feel like work anymore.

I also started a new painting. No photoshop this time, acrylics are the new way to go. Drawing with colored pens insted of coloring black lines is so much fun. Besides that I want to get back into shirt design. I started a new drawing and I think about starting another one already... just to keep me busy and distracted.

And I came up with a new comic-story concept. It's not my first one. I usually come up with stories and characters and stop working on the comic. But maybe this time I'll put some more work into it. It could just be a short story to check if people are interested. I don't want to give away too much of it yet. You'll see...

The weirdest thing that happened in the meantime is the changing of my sleeping schedule. I usually go to bed at 7AM and get up at 1 or 2 PM. It kinda happened by accident butI got used to it and it has it's benefits. In fact I don't see any downsides to it. Having to change it again will be hard though. But as long as I don't have a dayjob I'll keep on living this vampire-like lifestyle.

The best thing that happened in the meantime: I did pig squeals on stage for a band that I'm friends with. It was on their halloween show and the night before we just talked about the jokes we could pull off. One guy had a wig and an ugly hat, one guy pulled out a dildo and yeah, I did pig squeals during one of their breakdowns. It was my first time on stage and it felt awesome. Kinda new and weird but still pretty awesome. And I got some applause and thumbs up. Pretty cool. Kinda makes me want to put more effort into my stupid e-grind band. We promised our 5 fans to release our first album by January 09... I could just record some filler songs by myself or with friends... I don't know...

So... yeah, some new stuff coming up. My new project is still my main focus. Music might become more important. I'm constantly working to keep myself from reminiscing too much. A lot of crappy things happened this autumn. I'm far away from being as happy as I was back in summer when I was basicly having the time of my life. Despite that there are moments of joy that make me think I'm walking the right paths. I might be on the right way out of this
