When you were a kid, did you ever shade a piece of paper in every color of crayon you had, then cover it in a layer of black so you could carve in cool designs that would appear in a multitude of colors? That's how I feel now, the top layer peeling away and colors showing through in the shape of a still-to-be-defined me.
You know how some games have a difficulty setting? I need one that compensates for my inability to triple jump or land in the right spot. I think at least a third of my play time so far has been redoing parts of the level because I keep falling into a pretty mess of butterflies. This is why I prefer RPGs.

A week and a half ago, I donated blood for the first time. It didn’t go so well… I was so tense, especially when the tube was over my arm and I could feel my warm blood rushing through it. Then it stopped. There was a clot in my vein and blood wasn’t coming out of it anymore. The technician kept jabbing the needle around, trying to get more, but all it resulted in is a fat bruise that still hasn’t healed yet. All I donated was half a pint of blood. I want to help save a life, but I’m not sure I could do this again.

Quick bday sketch. Celebrated with friends on MLK Monday with sushi, a birthday shooter (in lieu of bottomless mimosas), and chocolate mousse cake; mani/pedi; and more drinks later. Then today with work at lunch; and with Rich tonight, continuing our prefixe birthday dinner tradition.
I’ve started a new Tumblr. This one will no longer be updated. Please follow me at staceyinsketches instead.
Tumblr doesn’t allow switching a new blog to be the primary though, so I believe that any notes I leave you will still appear as chasethestars.
Quiet NYE at home this year, with a window-view of some fireworks.

New year, new blog. Same goal: draw more. p.s. This was drawn on an iPad. It was more difficult than I thought it would be.
Other resolutions for 2012:
eat better
have less stuff - project #less365
learn more - master jQuery and Cantonese
dress better - starting with Fridays, wear something other than tshirts and jeans
travel more - go to at least 5 places, with at least 3 of them being first-time visits

Hardcore betaing our new game and hoping to win an iPad2. It’s been a week, but feels like a month, which I suppose is where it would take to get to this point with casual play. Can’t wait for launch.
