New Opportunities

Well I was called from Inlingüa yesterday by Mr. Cobos, it seems to be they finally started the trainning program for english teachers. I was chosen and I started today. There were two foreign people and two hispanic in the class, counting me in.

The experience was exhausting but really good. I'm ok with how we're being taught everything but still a bit nervous. I'm happy though cause its still a job in something I like, and a new challenge for me. If I get picked I'll be one to give a class on Monday to a CEO from Cervecería Nacional. Am I nervous?... YES.. but I know I'll be fine, I'm doing all I can in my power to be good at this, the rest I leave it to God.

As for new upcomiong events... I might be going to Cuenca this weekend to meet my friend Pats and his brother so we do a little desginer thing, perhaps I get to learn something... also its nice going back to such a beautiful place. I will be tired but I know it will be fun anyways.

I hope I dont get lost. =/

I'll leave you with the demoness art almost done... the inking is good I think... PLEASE FEEL FREE TO COMMENT!...


I'm going to bed.

New Sketch


I gotta go take a shower cause I'm going out but I'll leave you with my lastest sketch, she's a demoness as always.. floating on the white space.

Impressions (Updates of the last half hour)

Well, as I said earlier, this was a decisive day for me regarding that company, and answer is, its not going to happen. Reasons I won't disclose but all I can say is, much of how our country and the world is in the current days is mostlly for the attitude of people towards the human resources. What do we understand for human resources? well its quite obvious that its our capabilities and knowledge what take us further in our carreers and life and also the people on the other side that have "needs" to fill that fit our profiles, yet some of those business people lack of the main feature required to be a leader or a business man.. but most of all.. a man...

That feature is Ethics

I don't think I need to put out much more detail for anyone to realize what could possibly be the problem for me on working with this person. Definitely not my lack of knowledge but the lack of decision on his side on really knowing what he needs, and aiming for it. Instead... I lost 8 dollars and a very large amount of my time invested on appointments and research for potential candidates for a team.

For me... this is only another learning experience in the laboral field. People that don't know what they want, are usually for some reason... the ones on TOP OF EVERY BUSINESS... and the ones that get to pay for it, are those who know exactly what its needed.

So we loose time, and not only money but also emotions and hopes invested on something so we get stabbed in the last minute. I can understand everyone's point of view here as well though.... OH I can be objective.

He is only looking for what's best for his business.

But all I can say to that is.... You need to know first what you need, so then you seek for it.

All in all I am blessed... cause everything, as I always say, happens for a reason and having someone who disposes of human resources like they are plastic glasses isn't someone I wanna have for a boss or even work with. I like knowing I'm safe with a steady job working for someone who has at least an inch of integrity and ethics.

I am blessed with real friends, I am blessed in being so evidently taken cared of... I am blessed on having now... the learning attitude instead of feeling defeated.

Celeste... I wanna dedicate these lines to you...

What you did today showed me something.... You are beautiful insideout, you have real quality as a person, you know how to be a friend in all the meaning of the word... You showed me you really, truly care for me and my friendship above some good looking job, You showed me there are still people out there like us... like you.. who live a different type of life, feel a different way... see things and people with different eyes and most of all... value life and its creation, humans... more than anything else.

Thank you for being exactly how you are, thank you for letting me know you a bit more and for making my heart a little bigger on love today as well.

I considered you very close to my heart before this... but now... YOU are IN it.

I love you Muñe... this is the best news of the days.. not that I won't be working with the company anymore but that I have a real friend.

Día Decisivo?

Pues ayer para mi asombro, dormí relativamente bien, con facilidad y en una muy cómoda posisición.. la de siempre, de lado. No sé, asumo que otros y miles más prefieren esta posición así como yo, no sabría explicar que tiene pero le gana a estar sobre la espalda o el pecho. Definitivamente, creo que tiene cierta remembrancia a cuando éramos niños, fetos... bebés.. escondidos en algún lugar oscuro o suave, protegidos y seguros. Sin mencionar que siempre hay una almohada víctima del "empierne".

Hoy, espero ansiosa la respuesta de la compañía sobre la propuesta que mandé del equipo de trabajo. Estuve pensativa ayer de todo lo que tengo que aprender pero también de la gran emoción que siento, si es que la oportunidad se presenta. Entre otras cosas, me acabo de dar cuenta de que estoy escribiéndo es español! no en inglés!!, para los dos seguidores no creo que esto sea problema, pero por si acaso, ya activé la opción del traductor automático para este blog para la comodidad de quién  lo visite, incluso anónimamente.

NUEVA META: Formar parte de la sección "Blogs of Note" de Blogger, en la que sólo si logro ser, un tanto más interesante, pueda ser fácilmente alcanzada por algún curioso, como yo!, que esté buscando algo de buena lectura.

Francamente esta etapa es de metas y más metas!, aunque sean pequeñas pero me mantienen ocupada y eso es bueno, créanme. Aunque este blog es más sobre arte en general, no pueden pedirle a Sabina que no escriba sobre amor, lujuria, hombres.... OH LOS HOMBRES!!... y su pensamiento pragmático... o sobre las mujeres y sus malas decisiones, sus lamentos o logros... o dejos de cada uno. Soy yo!... alo?! tengo que inventar, crear.. soñar! es lo que me hace particularmente predecible en lo impredecible y justamente... un tanto distinta en los ojos de algunos.

Así que mezclaré arte y literatura, fotografía y amor!... hombres con sueños que resulta sinónimo de sueños y realidad... que son ambas tan distintas y generalmente la una es más cruda, fea y fría que la otra.

En todo caso, por ahora son las 9:33 am... y soy una de las miles de mortales que HOY, se levantaron temprano.

Insonmio=0
Sabina= 1

Ese es el marcador del día 2 de mi vida... pero NO que recién empecé a vivir! .... pero creo que recién hace algunos meses.. empecé a vivir bien realmente... por encima de todo... y hace dos días recién.. creo haber adquirido disciplina y mi insanidad... esta lentamente regresando :)... No sé si sea bueno o malo! pero sé que sirve para dibujar y escribir! así que supongo que será bueno!...

Los dejo con más arte de Cuenca, disfruten y tengan todos un lindo día.

La sonámbula


ps: jajajajaj suena tan raro pero me gusta :)

Vu-den Doll: Crazy Day

Vu-den Doll: Crazy Day

Crazy Day

Well as some people know, Im in the middle of organizing a team that might be a potential candidate to work with the company I mentioned in a previous blog. I called some people, I got a few "yes'es" and "noes", but Im good to go for now. Just having some doubts still about certain things, but that will all be solved I assume.. soon.

I just wanna express out in the open how thankful I am for this opportunity, I really hope it kicks in... It would be awesome to actually get to work together with these people and be able to do something really cool for this company. I got LOTS of ideas for events... and this is what I love doing!... creating :)

As for Sabina's life refers, I went to the movies with Ces and we had a great time..

We ran into ex friends of mine, well some.. and also my friend Jorge who by the way, greeted me so coldly I almost froze in his arms. I wonder what the fuck happened... I don't know but this time I would be surprised if I happen to realize he finally decided to be a sheep like the rest and sort of keep a distance with me. I hope it was just an awkward moment and we're still friends.. I texted him but then I remembered I consumed all my phone credit explaining my cousin, who is also a designer, what was the job about and what I needed her for.

Anyways!.. been trying to upload the pics from my trip to Cuenca on FB but for some reason FB wont let me, I think its sick of my kodak moments!.. wow im surprised on how much that phrase kicked in!.. people still say KODAK MOMENT!... very nice move kodak people! kudos for the brains of it.

OK im off to bed! tomorrow I have a big day filled with answers or.. more waiting. All in all... Im really happy and hopeful :)

Trip to Cuenca and new Updates

Well, for those who've been following this, which for now its only TWO people ( not complaining), you already knew this was only a space for art. So, I took a trip to Cuenca and all I can say is, it was awesome. Landscapes with colors so beautifuly mixed, mountains so high, highways being fixed and shortcuts we had to take, between all that and the freezing temperature, this trip was all an adventure!

I took some photographies of all my eyes could catch and thought I'd share it with you since most of it was just a work of art. I got to meet Jenz and Melina, who by the way seem to be one for the other. They look so cute together...

THAT for updates of me going around with no direction, and as for PROJECTS I have an appointment tomorrow with a company that organizes national and international events, having the possibilty of a steady job running Marketing Dept. if I get the chance to refresh my knowledges and also.... *crossing fingers* HOPEFULY I'm still able to cover the interview for the Feedback Magazine in the area of photography. If not, Im still thankful to Maureen for giving me the chance of being the first person she thought of for the job... and yeah I know I'm the one to blame for bailing at the last minute, but what can I say?... its how things happened but I hope I get a chance to still take some shots at Hector Napolitano and appear in the magazine!!


OK so Ill leave you with the pics!
