.the polka-polky story.

out of the blue...

i feel like drawing some cartoons. its been a lonnngg while now since i last sketch a good one. but i had a very positive vibe today that made me say 'hey i miss you pencil and papers' and started to sketch.

i felt so excited to draw that my hand was shaking like what. i was all giddy and imagine myself as a toddler, all happy and carefree. think, when you do something with all your heart and soul and really really put your mind to it, the outcome wouldnt be as bad as you thought it would be.

the little girl being named 'polkee'. havent had a name for the little boy though. probably 'polka' as it rhymes. there's more but these three are my favorites. when i was in school, when people asked the usual question of 'what do you want to be when you grow up?' i would happily said 'a cartoonist.' even friends often told me 'you draw so much you should be a cartoonist one day.' but my parents, being parents they are, rub the dream of my mind by saying 'you cant make a living out of this. drawing wont get you nowhere.' typical answer?

neah, its normal to take the most safest route. they let me took multimedia and graphic though, which isn't that far from what i love doing. i still sketched through out my first year of study in college; in the morning before class, in the middle of the class and in the evening after class. i even had a guy friend who stole my cartoon and framed it. funny. but it all stop when my drawing was thrown away by someone. soon after, the passion just die and became 'deep hurt'. everytime i tried to pick up the sketch book back, i just dont have the guts to do it no more.

till today. it probably took another few years before i start to sketch again.

so i told me best friend poupee d papier salmi about my excitement. turns out she's been doing the same too!

'dah lama aku tak draw seh.' says me.

'tu arr aku pon sama. gila lama tak draw. lukis mata pon tak balance. geram plak aku.'

'tangan dah keras cam hapa dah ni.'

and she reminds me of those days in school where i sketched my cartoon 'kadir the frog' and salmi with her 'salmi albert'. how i miss high school!!! that's salmi in the photo, drawing. and as you can see, obviously...salmi's drawing is far much better than mine. no wonder egg advertising loves her so much! haha!

right, now stinky polkee wants to take a shower and put on her polka dress. kiss kiss.
