See how these assholes fuck up a building's lights

Farewell, my friend

This drawing is for one of my best friends who will go back to Taiwan next month. We can never tell which one is better--stay or leave. The best we can do is to try to live an abundant life and help as many people as we could. Then, don't regret you have this life!

Keep fighting. Don't look back!

No one covers your back. As a sales representative, you have to learn everything yourself. It doesn't mean that nobody will help, but that you have to ask for help. Well, we all ask for help sometimes. However, the key point here is that you even have to find questions, because other sales won't tell you what you will face and what mistakes you shouldn't make. It's like fighting with hundreds of people without partners, and growing little by little while you finish each of them. Live, or die.

Is that true? No. Look at all the big companies that need bail-out. These so called winners all want tax payers' money to save their jobs. The analogy of market place as battle field extends only this far. It's time for us to help each other, watch others' back, and collaborate with others. It's about mutual benefit and symbiosis. Let the selfish guys fight with their own lives. No matter how strong they are, there is nothing but death waiting for them on the battle ground.

Facing obstacle...

Be careful!

Women always say that most men are playboys. What about women themselves?

Which one do you like?

Two types of funny ads: one is low-budget, old-style drama; one, extravagant special-effect farce. The Norwegian ad has an ordinary script, but the director of this ad turns it into an amazingly fun commercial. The cute girl's angry reaction, aroused the boy's unscrupulous remarks (against a cow), fulfills every little boy's desire to tease their girl friend. Simply idea, and very well executed. I would say the male character's performance is far better than the female character's, because he makes every female want to spit on his face.

Japanese melodrama might let you watch one more time; not because it is so funny, but because its special effects wow the viewers. More and more Japanese TV commercials are using digital effect to create surreal, comic-style parodies. In this ad, it is mixing the actions in The Matrix, JoJo, Lefty (寄生獸), etc. It has the same ordinary plot as the Norwegian ad, but the production company makes it work.

Are these two ads showing the cultural differences between Japan and Norway?

Practice

Practice...
Well, I feel pressure to find a job, so drawing is one of my way to release the pressure. Drawing human faces doesn't require much creativity. Quite a good way to while away your time.

Uncertainty

When facing obstacles, conflicts, uncertainty, and depression, how would you react? This is one of our darkest time, and the way you're facing them--circumvention, denial, or fight--determine your future.

Confusion

When we face the injustice in society with our hands full of its products, we will start to doubt about ourselves. And what accompanies with this ambiguity is the self-consciousness of our guilt and shame. This process of self-doubt is what makes you a better person. Even you have to make a clear decision at certain levels in your life, the struggle for an unified self is what push us to have a greater understanding of our life and the world.

The Cup

This iron cup is all what its owner has.
