Happy New Year!

flowernelly — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 00:32:32 +0000

Oh, hey there! It´s been a while!
Since everything went a little wild lately, I´m trying to get more organized and write here on a more regular schedule.
(Bad Nelly! How dare you leave those readers alone? Grmpf!)

So, what´s new? I am on my way to self-sufficiency, making my way as an illustrator and artists and hoping to make people happy with my stuff.
There has been a developement towards cute cats with ornaments. I think that this brings out the personality of the cat even more and I plan to do customized pictures of people or their pets too. If you are interested in having yourself or your little friend portrayed like this, just write me a message.
There is quite some reading to do before I will know all the wits about opening an etsy store, so I will post all small steps here.
I am curious about making acrylic jewlery too, though I know very little about it by now.

Has anyone else got the feeling that 2010 will be special? I know, I know, the media tells us this every damn year, but I don´t.
(well, there is a point at saying “Hey girl, your blog isn´t even one year old, but you can come back at me, when I do the same at 2011, ok? Deal?)

By the way, we have about 45 guppy babies. From one mother.
I can´t believe it, I wonder how she managed not to burst into pieces.
Can you imagine what this would look like on a human being? A hot-air balloon mama!!!
She seems to be mad about being fat though, for she ate quite a couple of her own babies before we could take her out and into another aquarium.
Still the babies are very cute and clever. I´m curious what color they will be.

Today the PS2 game “Shadow of the Colossus” finally came in and I have to say that this is probably the game with the hugest landscape that I know.
The scenery is beautiful. There is nothing except you, your horse (now I´m getting all girly, but that horse is a cutie! Appart from the fact that the way you have to controll your horse comes very close to how you would have to do it on a real horse…), some lizards and eagles and that´s about it.
Oh, and of course the colossuses. (is that the correct plural? If yes: That word is epic fail. Colossusesesesuses. Uhm, yes.)
But I guess there will have to be an extra post about this, for this is far too good to be handled in a few sentences.

I hope the new year treated you kind so far! Seeya soon!

Sudoku, only better

flowernelly — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 20:43:50 +0000

I am really bad at maths. No, seriously REALLY REALLY bad.
Like on a scale from 0 to 10, I would be nowhere because numbers simply can´t describe.
Numbers hardly mean anything to me. So I somehow like sudokus, but I don´t concider them as pretty or artful.
9 goes into second row, because it´s already in the first and third one. That´s about it.

Much better and a little harder is the nonogram.
This is a nice puzzle game where you have to color fields in a grid.
Some fields you have to color, others you don´t. In the end you get some sort of pixel art as a result. Very nice.

Here is how it works. And here are the games. Better start off with the ones on the bottom or you might get frustrated.
