Project Kuanyin

Shit, it's almost 11pm, and by the time I'm off to bed, it'll be way past midnight... Least it'll be cooler... The temperature went up to triple-digits today, oy... My landlord still hasn't fixed the air cond... He's a cheap bastard according to the live-in manager here... My landlord is a very sweet elderly guy, but still a cheap bastard... Maybe I'll go freeballin' into work tomorrow... woohoo!!

Made a good few more shirts the other night... This one's navy blue, but who can tell, right? Maybe I should get a manniquin to pose for me next time... I'll fetch a dummy from somewhere, o wait, that would be me! It's the image of Kuanyin... She's been called the Goddess of Mercy, sorta mystical like... like... Pegasus, but not really [k, now big Buddha's gonna smash me with his big belly! hee!]... I'm still an agnostic, or did I say I'm an atheist before? I don't remember. I like my thoughts to be freeform. Anyway, I've always liked the lady called Kuanyin... all her images and statues that I've seen of hers since I was young were ever so graceful...

I guess before my class ends in 3 weeks, I'll be making my final 2 designs... One that reads: DESTROY ALL MANKIND. What do you think? Been wanted to do this one for a longwhile... The phrase... seems so... final!! How else would one describe it? It's a joke [really!] and when people see it, they'll prolly hate me AND maybe, just maybe, it'll strike a spark in them, realizing for a moment on how vulnerable we truly are... K, maybe not... but y'know, I'm just doing it for myself anyway! heh heh! So does anyone know of a good sans-serif, semi-bold, end-of-the-world kinda font?

And my final project will be a Mrhappysad shirt... "Why be happy? Why be sad?"

Music: Buddhist chant -
