Loving these cityscapes by Portland based painter Matte Stephens. Got a lovely M.Sasek-esque feel to them, I’m sure he must be a fan of his judging from the influences he lists;
“I love Mid 20th century industrial and graphic design like the work of Charles and Ray Eames, Alexander Girard, George Nelson/Irving Harper and fine artists of the same era like Ben Shahn and Paul Klee.”
He doesn’t just do city paintings though! All his work is really lovely so go have a look;

…Pluto. I still hold on to what we were taught in elementary. :P
That’s me with the face mask. ‘Cause we’re in a landfill in Marilao, Bulacan. I currently work as a research assistant at ERDB, the research bureau of DENR. So far so good (well, except for occasional b*tch fits of our let’s-make-simple-things-complicated, 64-year-old boss).
What a way to spend the summer. Haha!

Just because I don’t have Internet or TV in the apartment yet. :P I’m now at the 4th installment.
Hey, if you want to be acquainted with Greek mythology without reading Edith Hamilton’s book or the original Greek lit, this series is good enough for you to know who’s who in the said mythology.
Yesterday we visited the MV Logos Hope at the Subic Bay Freeport, which houses the largest book fair in the world. The book fair’s ok, with limited selections but really cheap prices (hardbound McGraw-Hill textbooks at 3 for P500, and Praise/Gospel CDs at 3 for P100). The trip’s value added for me is the ship itself, docked on a beautiful bay (way better than the murky Manila Bay) on a fair, sunny weather. I guess this will be the highlight of my 2012 summer. (Sittin’) On the Dock of the Bay is in my head right now.

It’s my third weekday as an ex-Project Development Associate of Resources, Environment and Economics center for Studies, Inc. (REECS). I’m currently at home here in Bataan while preparing for my transfer to the Ecosystems Research and Development Bureau (ERDB). I am enjoying my stay so much that I feel lazy about my new job (and my soon-to-be-ending RA gig). I have a meeting with my boss on Thursday (venue is in Quezon Ave., in his mother’s wake. Weird, but he said we’ll waste time if we don’t meet soon). I hope this will shake me off my laziness.
To all the fresh graduates out there, DO NOT PRESSURE YOURSELF IN GETTING A JOB AT THE SOONEST POSSIBLE TIME. Enjoy your bum life while you still have it.
