Ashamedly I Must Admit, I Can´t Draw

As a little girl i was convinced that i could draw believing my teacher's compliments and incentives. but as i grew older, i realized, no matter what other people say, i just can't draw.


For some people is easy, just take up a pencil and any piece of paper and it's all it takes to make an art piece.


But since i realised i'm not a natural i'm determined to learn, so i've been coping some other peoples drawing's like a little child learning calligraphy copying the outlines of the drawings.



I even bought a notebook specialy to fill to with my pseudo-drwaings.
I made some progress must admit, but i'm still hoping for it to become a more 'natural' thing, instead of only drawing the things i learnt before.

I´ve been told all i have to do is learn. Humm should i belive?

I'm 50-50 About This

So in exactly 6 days is my birthday. I don't know if I should be happy or just really allow myself to be sad. I got mixed feelings about it.




I’ve never been much of a person to draw attention to myself, never wanted big parties with fancy dresses, the regular birthday consists of me going out with my family and closest friends (unfortunately, they are not many believe me) to a restaurant near by my house and just have a meal together come back home and sleep, which i love to be honest.



Not very eventful as you can see .In a way I’m happy to get one year older (happy I made it alive for one thing!) , I learned a lot, listened/sang some good songs, watched some great movies, and spent time with people I love.






But in the other hand it feels like i haven't accomplished much in my 23 years of life, when I read other people biographies or see some people that are professionally and emotionally successful at this age, it gives me the feeling that something else is missing.

And the exiting thing about it, is trying to find out what. Or is it?

So Many Books So Little Time


As a child I always loved reading (alright i used to read comics, but still) and as i grew older,
my love for books grew as well.

I know is very cliché to say that I love most of Jane Austin books especially
Pride And Prejudice, i bought the English copy when I was living in England
and feel in love even more with the language and the writing.
I like classics. I always need help when choosing more contemporary books,
i never know what to buy, I don't know most of the new writers,
so it turns something as pleasant as book shopping into a chaos of doubt.

The last book I read is called Dylan On Dylan, and my mum gave me a new book,
so I say why not? I’ll read it. The thing I didn't know was that the book is the first of a 13 book saga....yes 13.I'm not complaining I’m loving the books, it's just that I keep staring at the shelf where the books i queue jumped are glaring at me with revolt.

Well I guess they'll have to wait, just a bit.
