HOW TO LIVE A HAPPY LIFE

How To Live A Happy Life
1. Stop searching for all the problems, and start looking for the awesome things in life.

2. There's always an endless supply of things to be stressed about. Don't waste your time on them. Just let them go.

3. Be happy for others who are happy or successful, even if you're jealous of them.

4. Accept that life isn't perfect.

5. Believe that you are wonderful and beautiful; love yourself just the way you are.

6. The quickest way to help yourself is to help others.

7. Be open to other/new possibilities.

8. Listen to what others have to say.

9. Always think of at least one positive thought in every situation.

10. Reslove conflicts with g}

Wow, I can't believe I'm so excited for spring break! It's been a busy and tiring winter season at school (even though it's been pretty mild; just started snowing today, and it's just a little drizzle and slush...)

Things To Do When I Get Back

Visit school! (+ working for my teachers)

Work at my dad's office! (+ shopping and eating in hong kong)

Spend time people watching and sketching!

Go swimming!

Play guitar! (and possibly draw a new design, as long as my mom doesn't find out...)

Watch movies!

DO SOME ART - I have SUCH a long list of art projects I want to do, I should really go over and organize them in a practical way so that I can get started

Just Some More Updates

Check out my mind palace (tumblr) [link]

I created a vimeo account for my process videos! [link] (I'm quite new to vimeo, so if you have any starters let me know)

I'm going to be farming in the spring, I'm really excited!

I've started playing violin again

Thanks for being such awesome watchers!!

Who will be your pretty little enemy?
When Im gone your world will prove empty
I promise u will always remember me
The jokes on u
Poison me
While you clean the streets of misfortune
I pick the innocent from my dirty teeth
We're one and the same
Deranged

~confusedcara Apr 10, 2012 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

I know this may be a silly question, (But I'm deadly curious.

)
What type of tablet (Or other thing) do you use on pictures like Katniss and the Tangled scene? And also, do you just use plain photoshop or some other alike program?

Thank you! :3

~confusedcara Apr 10, 2012 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Thank you!

If you don't mind me asking also, where did you buy yours? I've been looking at tablets online and have been saving up for one, but I never know what a good place is to buy from. x3

"Come in the garden and look at the trees
I used to play there when I was a child."

=vivsters Apr 11, 2012

I bought mine at a regular electronics store (i think it was best buy?) But really, the cheapest way to get it is to buy it online. (and it's more convenient).

In terms of which tablet to buy, I would recommend wacom since they're supposedly the best quality. I have been wanting to get something better than the bamboo pen, but i'm still using it and it works perfectly!
