#NewUpdate...

Artwork Showcase, [link]

I'd thought to share with you this link (above), to discover another place I may update from time-to-time.

It's a site called tackk.com. It was recommended from a fellow BB (Beau Bloggers, [link]), JustAnotherGirl [Tackk] [Google+] [blog].

This update talks about the latest things I've done, to a draft image I showcased.

The reason to call it 'Artwork Showcase', is by what I've been doing lately to this day.

So, feel free to view. And I would also recommend this site to you. It's a bit like publishing your own articles website, in my own words.

Take care always, and feel free to comment your thoughts. Plus, are there any other sites you would like to recommend?
Feel free to share these too.

Enjoy Reading! And keep creativity.

Let's Talk About Big Brother...

...but not in the way you think.

Back Story:
For the past days, I've been having 'Big Brother' dreams (24/08/2015 - 26/08/2015). Within my "Dream Journal", I had drawn the house plan (my view), and thought of the housemates, even their outfits.

- I thank Professional Daydreamer x [google+], for sharing their dreams. It allows courage and it made me feel more open, to talk about my dreams and not feel alone within having them. If you know what I mean, lolls.

I've had dreams like this before, from watching Big Brother, but this one seemed real and I could see every detail.

Sounds crazy.

Within day dreaming, I drew outfits (preview above). This housemate I made up I guess, was wearing it.

It looked like the clothes trending today.
It made me think of the clothing that some previous housemates wore, how their modern and stylish.
I wanted to share this today, because of course, CBB (Celebrity Big Brother, Ch5) is back on UK screens (without warning me..!).

I got to watch some of it yesterday, and I do hope to catch it today.

It's weird and fantastic to view it again. The only thing wrong, for the normal Big Brother (2015) was the time changes. I guess they didn't say it well, unless you may have watched the show itself if so.

I said I would try, so this is a second chance I guess.

A personal note I would like to share. I don't watch Big Brother for the entertainment, I watch it to see how the housemates can live with each other and their interactions. I just get amazed.
How do they do it?!

It has opened my eyes about certain people. It does have a sense of scientific things behind it (My view, to extra shows they have too). I also like the tasks, just to see their creation (designers/makers).

Am I weird...?
Lolls.

I do hope anyone who's reading, may enjoy it the way I do. If you enjoy it for other reasons or don't watch it, feel free to share all you like about it (comment section, or contacts). I'm totally interested to see the other views on it.

Take care, and as always, thank you.

Planning Overuled

I planned to do a post yesterday, but it didn't go to plan.


The browser kept closing off (even later reading other blogs), there were links to do and I needed to explain the plan I have for my blog.

It didn't go to plan at all.

To summarise:

- there shall be no more planned posts...

- I'm going back to the original plan for starting a blog/blogging

- there was something about posts to do...? (Being secretive, ssh).

If things start to work correctly again, (it took time to know what the problem was - restart, tut), then I shall share the post I planned with the links I set. 
The links are important, from the support that has helped me.

I'm going to say the day before I had a rough night, but that's what got me to do that post.

I do hope having no schedules won't effect the way I blog, to how others view it.

I need to "come back down to Earth", and start again in a way ("to the original source", reference anyone?).

Anyway, before I finish this post, (what's with the 'thus', for 'this' - type), I am planning a design(...?) for October. 

Plus, I did my take on the "PowerPoint Challenge", inspired by 99designs [link].

(Which I didn't realise what it was now, lolls. I'm standing by what creation I done).

99designs [link] was recommended to me.
It allows designers, to show their work by challenges, have connections, enter contests, and more, from businesses.

If your a designer, I would recommend this site for you too.

So, that's my say for upcoming things. I'll do my best to showcase them.

May you take care, and feel free to comment.

If you're new, or a previous reader, I have thankfully changed the comment section. 

It's more "open", in a way, for comments.

Thank you,

Illness...

When people get ill, it scares me these days.

I don't want them to feel that way, but it happens. As I would have to say to myself.

The struggle and feeling sorry for them, and wanting to help them is difficult but I would want to them to feel like they have help on their side.

Just like how I suffer from illness, I find it best to give help back as much as I am possible to.

I know it can never be easy, but you may not know how a little help can make someone's day. Truly.

So, before anything, help the ones who need you the most. I surely hope I do too.

Take care,

Schedule Plan

I've been using schedule.


**similiar to what I do for blog posts. (Inspired by SuckerPunch (movie), *may not be suitable for all ages).

If you might have seen, or you're new to this blog (welcome), I've been planning posts, and scheduling them.

Apart from wanting to blog each day, I mostly get ill or I might be busy sometimes, when it comes to wanting to post.

I do want my blog to be a "people involved blog", so this is what helps me to post, when I'm unable to. 

Trust me, there's been weeks when I don't post, (and it makes me feel unhappy).

So, when it goes up, I read over, share (social network), or I share it as a "secret post". This is where I may post, but not share.

Hint: only the people who follow my blog will know. Ssh!

Feel free to share if it's working, or if there's a simpler way to blog. I appreciate it so much, and you'll help to share with others too.

Take care,

Health Latest

Yesterday (12/08/2015), my migraine got the best of me.

I rested, I eat on time, but it didn't budge.
So, I would have liked to do some work yesterday, even today (I'll say after this), but I couldn't manage.

These are the days I don't like, but fear the most if I was working.

Yesterday the message of, "You're taking on too much", is true. So I had to stop.

For today, I have a slight headache (thank God), but I'm "not here".


I went on the road, and by time halfway into a walk, I went into an "auto-daze". 

To describe it, I was walking but not concentrating. Plus I was in and out of being conscious, that I was still on the road.

It was scary, but lucky I tried to concentrate where I was going. My mind was numb. And sadly, my smile went away.

I mostly smile a lot (nickname, "smiley" in 6th Form), but from these times, and when I over think bad things, my sadness to take over.

I need to force stop it sometimes, or I'll go into a deep depression. 

I do seek help, so no worries, but I need to catch myself before it gets to far. It is hard. 

However, realising the things or people who can help you, make myself feel encouraged to seek help.

** I may do a post on that. (Keep you posted).

For a end thought, this was a "free of mind" post. Just something for the day, plus if you see less of something that I do (may not be clear, lolls).

Example of this:
I checked my YT (YouTube) updates the other day, and I lost a subscriber. It doesn't bother me. 

Although for a update, I would like to get my blog post up (continuing, I love it), before I start to make videos again.

No rush. I love what I'm doing now.

Near the end of post...

- New Posts each 2 days.
The occasional ones in between.

- Tell me what you think. Every day, or every 2 days?

** (don't worry, I won't push myself to much again).
Feel free to let me know. Much appreciated.

Take care, and thank you.

Birthday Theme

I know this may not be something new, but I thought of different themes, that a birthday party could intake (feature).

If I were to have a birthday party, it would be:

*Image from video featured, may not be suitable for all ages.

Tea Party

I did think of Kerli - Tea Party. But I've thought and liked to have a chilled birthday party. If it was my main thought, this would be it. *Including cakes!


Cafe Restaurant

Apart from looking, and feeling relaxed, it would be a good get together with friends and family. The food would have to be good.

Hint: some cafe restaurants do discounts, whether special occasions, and for groups, etc. Doing research could help (in shop, and if they're online). Look out for them!


Party Hall Centre

This is a classic. However, just to book a place where you get people you know together, is the most uplifting thing, even from my own experience going to a party (from these type of places). It's amazing.

These are all my selectives. I have been unfortuante to have birthdays themes like these, however these are my own thoughts, if I were able to.

Take care all, and as you can, enjoy any birthday.

Reflection

On Friday, I had time to reflect on my life, (while washing up plates).

There's a little moment when, things are done or there are things to do, and the mind cools down to look at situations and maybe anything, to think about.

It can come out good or bad, but it can be a time to find a solution, even to a given goal that you can set yourself, or discuss with others.

I always choose to allow these moments to happen, because it cools down my brain (thoughts). It allows a clear understanding, of life now.

If I were to suggest it to anyone, they may think I'm bonkers. But it's not. It's slightly similar to making a life choice, and doing it in a relaxing way.

If you cry, its fine.
If you laugh, it makes you feel happier.
If you're happy, then you're happy.

There's many things. In a way, it's settling, to thinking through things, to the end solution(s), (cleared up thought(s)).

A sign of relief (thought), is an amazing moment/feeling.

May you find your time to reflect, even for a few minutes, out of your time.

The Horror Of Keeping Up With Trends...

I created this blog post: 07/04/2015
Revisited: 08/2015

[Image Link]

For a person who loves seeing fashion to (freelance) designing it, throughout the years it can get a little boring.

I love fashion, but for inspiration and keeping up with fashion, most shops sell the same type of style. 

From this however, I love to see the shops make the style their own way, with a difference.

I love shops/shows such as:
- & Other Stories [Link]
- Gok's Fashion Fix (Came on Channel4)
- 10 Years Younger (Originally from Channel4)

And others.

They did DIY, made Outfits from selected clothing (repeat to create another style of outfit - mix and match), and they were on trend, but advised for key piece(s) clothing. Even all season clothing.

Tip:
If you have an item in your wardrobe, always find a clothing/outfit to go with it for clothing shopping. Plus, find mix and match pieces with your outfit.

[Image Link]

**Remember:

- Fashion repeats itself. But may you keep on top of trends (hint for designers). Make it unique for yourself.

- Not every clothing, has to be brought for every season. Unless you know where you would like your good clothes (non-torn) to go, buying an outfit can be helpful, than one piece a lot of times.

I know most of us want to keep up with the latest trends. From this, there are good ways to do it, and bad ways to do it

Take care,

Stereotyped-Walking-Hazard

I'm black, known as black-carribbean, and known as afro-caribbean.
*images contained on the website, maybe be unsuitable for sensitive view

I did live in Jamacia...

However, for my music test(s), actions and attitude...many people don't understand.

They think and wonder why, I'm not listening to reggae...I don't dislike it.

They wonder and think about drugs...I would not go near it.

They wonder how I dress...many coloured skinned people don't dress up, like how they think they would.

Most, and many more things...just equal to stereotyping.

It is difficult.

When I was a teenager, it was hard to get past the laughs, the criticism and people who thought I was weird.

Although in my mind, I thought, "They'll understand in their own time".

From seeing others, encouragement from friends, some family (they are proud),  and being bullied (Primary School), I always learned to think, people will understand things when they're ready.

All the music, labels (prints, shops) and places I've seen, are in the public eye.

I do wonder if they understand now (stereotyping). It was just a fraction of, 'I wasn't the only one'.

Don't daunt on it. You'll see the results in time.

I hope this post made sense. And thank you for reading.
Take care,


P.s - xImmortalMindsx was from teenage me.

Thankful

*Views, Comments, Readers, Followers...

I'm thankful that my blog has come across anyone, who view it.

I'm thankful.

There is over 3000+ views at this moment.

I'm thankful for any slight thing, that people do on my blog.
Interaction is another I do, but needs to improve.

Improvement (myself):
* Find a good source of interaction with anyone who comments
* how to view all of anyone who comments

(A little formal, however a helpful thing to find as an accomplishment).

Take care all, I thank you.

Daily Task: Your Time

Work. Break. Work. Break. Work. Night Time.


What can happen in our time, especially for this holiday...?

- they will say outdoor activities
- read a book
- go to a museum

...for my teen years with holidays, I chose to mostly take time to relax.

I was done with doing the usual, and tried something different.

- go on adventures with friends
- watch movies
- spent time introducing myself, to art ideas

It was fun. And still is.

For daily tasks, I was going to talk about work related things and how breaks are beneficial.

However, I broadened this post for what you can do in your spare time, holiday time and break times.

Break times can be the best times. May you make good times of them.

Take care all,

What's Been Bugging Me Lately?

"It's because you have a lot of free time...".

 [Image Link]

There's no need to say this.

Nowadays, I'm finding it hard when I'm told I have free time. I wish I knew where it was/is, (lolls).

**I don't like this to sound as a rant.

I feel offended.
I am unemployed, although it doesn't mean it's not for a reason, or that I chose to be.

We have to live with what happens, to the choices we make. It can't be helped sometimes.

I do want to say a new light on the situation.

From the way I'm bought up, I was told and directed, we have to go with our heart.

When others CHOOSE to not except the bad things that happen in life, it's truly bad.

I get annoyed, because even people who are close, choose to not acknowledge, that I would love to do something in my life.

Free time is a word used. I see this as a done time.

"My free time, is my over time".
**illness related, (again...?!).

It makes me feel like I should bow down, and take action to say, "I'm a sickly person. I wish to be like you. You're better than me"..? Is that right to say?

No, it's truly not.

No one, is greater than anyone else, especially on Earth and in space (remember the astronauts).

I'm tired of hearing it, but I bless anyone who get to do the things, they aimed to do. I salute you greatly.

May you all take care,

Most Want To Share All In One Day...

But We Can Only Share What We Can.

This Relates to me.


I would love my ideas to be showcased, to make way for new one's.

The amount of ideas, I would like to showcase, not all the space in the World can manage (preferably copy space).

I try, and I do what I can.
I've simplified, how i can showcase.
I know what I can use.

Though, I know my limitations.

I am a sickly person, but I know I have something that I can give back, to help others.

They're can be plenty of blog posts, artwork, etc. that I would like to do. But, plans may not go ahead sometimes - it's understandable.

It feels "cavey" sometimes. Like I'm crowded, to be warn out easily by rocky times.

*If you haven't seen my past posts, I suffer with severe migraine (not your typical one), and I have a mental illness. Mine is depression (I didn't understand this at first, like I do now).

I have my times of ups and downs (like everyone)?
However, when it comes to times when I am well, I'm all "set-sail".

**I need to do a post on, "daily task: your time", or something (lolls).

Living a life with illness, for myself, gets easier when I know how and what works to deal with it.

It's like a "not waste time" moment. But everyone has their rules, right?

*I'll be doing a post on, what's been annoying me lately (maybe friend characters included, lolls).

Take care all, and feel free to comment.
