What Font is your City?
It's been a while since I've read anything about font. I have not been doing design for almost half for a year. But I will be starting my designer job next month. I'm afraid my typo skill might get rustier than before so I stumbled across the site talking about 'What Font is your City?'. Sounds interesting. Sadly it only talked about 10 cities in America. But it's fine because I'm able to learn about the main characteristics and why they have chosen the fonts that matched each city. They actually describe as short and clear as possible with the use of 3 adjectives only. Enjoy!

How to counter negative thoughts
Negative thoughts. They do spread like germs. Sometimes if you're surrounded by negative thinkers you will get infected too. Well the most basic way to counter these negativities is counter them with positives and avoid thinking about negatives. Doesn't sound easy eh? Well it is. Let me tell you how.
Believe
Yes you gotta believe. Dont think that you can't, think you can and you will! Believe it or not. The word 'impossible' is actually an excuse of not trying. How would you know you can't do it until you try? Ever heard someone saying it's only possible when it's done. Nothing is a failure unless you've stopped trying. Well take a look a Walt Disney, he was rejected and nobody wanted to hire him. He's a legend today because he was determined to try and try.Don't get affected by others
Again you gotta believe! Don't let criticisms bring you down because at the end of they day your opinion matters than anyone else.Don't underestimate yourself
First of all, don't compare with others. You may think they are better but they are not. Just because person is good at something which you're not good at doesn't mean you're not good at something. He or she is not better than you. He or she is just different from you. Well everybody is different.Don't complain, do something about it
A little complaint is fine but please don't brag how unfair your life is. It will just rob away your happiness. No one want to spend hours in a dark room when you could be enjoying a trip down a city. Well how about this, have you try compare yourself with the less fortunate rather than people who seems better than you? Everyone has their own doubts. It's better to do something about it rather than feeling hopeless about it.Make a list about 'good things about me'
Well don't laugh! In fact it helps. Write at least 10 things you like about yourself. For example, I'm not arrogant. That's one good thing. Or I have a nice smile. Just keep going and you will feel better about yourself.Think the opposite of the negatives
Well a lot of us would think what if it wouldn't turn right. But have you thought what if it would? Well if it doesn't turn out the way you hope for, dont feel hopeless just take it as a lesson. Don't be afraid of mistakes. Mistakes make us wiser. Afterall tomorrow's a new day!You are beautiful than you think
Low self-esteem? Don't fret, A happy person is a beautiful person. Confidence is a beauty too. Hey, afterall a personality still matters. Be happy that you're not blind nor sick. The video below also proved that we are beautiful than we think.
Well that's it for now. It will be continued. Do comments and let me know if this helps ;)
P/s: I'm sorry if the video is too small. I don't know how to make it bigger. Video and image are taken from website.

Not just another sappy movie
After hearing what my friends described of of Warm Bodies my first thought was like yet another sappy drama/love story like Twilight. After reading some good reviews about it I've decided to give it a go. For some of you are wondering what's Warm Bodies is about, here's the trailer:
Lucky that I was able to find a site which I can watch some of the new releases online (www.megashare.info)
Well after finished watching it I actually liked it because one, it's something different as it narrated from the perspective of a zombie; what's he's actually thinking and two, most importantly it's not too much of a sappy love story and least serious. But although, the ending is predictable I still gives two thumbs up for him. I even downloaded a Warm Bodies pdf to read more about it (Sorry, I forgot where's the link). Afterall a novel always contain more juicy details. Enjoy!

To a new beginning
And I figured I always have nothing to blog about and it would take a long while for a new update about my artwork. I get demotivated sometimes and I need an 'ooomph' in life. And because Im a pessimist and my journal is filled with such frustrating thoughts. I might just take it out in a good and positive way.
So after thinking throughly what I want to share. I've decided to share what's been keeping me inside and it has drained away my joy. And I'm sure that I'm not the only person who have hard times which can't be dealt. So I hope it would help not only myself but everyone to overcome the damn storm.
As you might not know I've changed my blog urls and tittle. Previously it was just a combinations of my name and nickname, 'odine-claudinechin'. So now it has changed to 'Life in a positive space'. Yep, it's basically a new start for me and I want a positive space to keep me moving rather on dwelling on something so stupid. In time I will share some of my embarrassing experiences (yes, including love ones which my friends would laugh if they're reading this) and some acts which I'm not proud of.
I guess the next post I shall talk about is unfortunate love stories or some people should called me stupid. But I don't really care anymore because I enjoyed it selflessly.
Cheers on to the beginning of my life in a positive space.
;)
