Continue from Stupid For Azalea

They became a very good friends, Azalea always think that no one will understand her. She thinks only mind reader or Nostradamus is able to do that since her acting skills herself would deserve one or two nominees for Grammy.

But then here come a simple and naive man that we call Stupid in her life. As if slap her in her face with a simple word “Why do you look so Sad?” as if Stupid can read minds and look into her eyes so deep and know all the secret and pain she bear herself.

Yeah… Anyone would need someone?

Now… Stupid knows why Azalea always look so sad, our Dear Azalea is sad because she’s alone, born from a family with no love… eh… yeah sure, there was love there… but now… only fight, scream, blood, drugs, tears and no Faith. So at her young age she decides to run away from home… she said “I want to reach my dream myself”.

So now she’s staying with her relatives that sympathize on her…. but her relatives have their own problem to mind… so She know she must not bother them….

She does anything to survive. Nobody in her school know about her harsh life. She’s been working as a photo model, fast food restaurant’s clerk and sales promotion girl… you name it.

“You are strong”, Stupid compliment her

And Azalea know why Stupid could understand her. Stupid’s life was a normal life, but since child, He always believe that he can understand others.

Stupid was so alone, his problem is not his family or anything… it’s just because he was born different.

Different? that’s a big word Dear…

Big word? yep.. Stupid was “Slow”, it took him longer than anyone else to learn something new. it took him a lot to manage… to be “equal”

Retarded

Yep If you see Stupid now you would not believe me he was called with that “R” word, Stupid always told me “to be left behind and alone” is a painful feeling.

He knows it… almost a quarter of his life is falling behind, almost a quarter of his life is to be laugh at.. almost a quarter of his life is his effort to be “equal”…

It makes me feel a lot of pain to hear that word from Stupid… someone as great as him was called “Retarded”.

Great? that’s a bigger word Dear…

He is! He is someone I envy.. having that talent, that brain, that wisdom, that kindness…
it’s makes me want to “not believe” about everything he told me about his past, his past about his effort.

Could you believe someone who can match up with any conversation was called Retarded?

Could you believe someone who get high score so easily as if he don’t even have to do some effort was called “Slow”?

Could you believe someone who almost can answer all of my question as if he is a walking dictionary was “left-behind”?

I don’t want to believe that, but it’s true… it makes me realize… whoever I am, If I want it then I can do it…. it makes me Envy him even more :) you are a great man Bro….

In other word,

I believe someone like Stupid was born for Azalea… and someone like Azalea was born for Stupid… both of them have had face harsh life that makes them strong… they understand how it feel to be alone… they understand how it feel to catch up and they just never give up….

But I was wrong….

Gnite Azalea may angels lead you in,

I am damn wrong…

Gnite Stupid, I will always envy of you Bro

Not so important, just memento… sebuah Fiksi dalam bentuk YM hahaha :)

Ne tutorial kecil tentang bagaimana membuat gambar trace-like thing yang di header aku itu…sebenanya stepnya simple banget sih..

1. Pertama-tama tentu saja siapkan foto yang beresolusi besar dan bagus kalo bisa ga kompleks :D

1.jpg

nee foto cosplay tifa.. and since gw nemu dia di berbagai web.. so she would not mind to be out victim i think :D

2. kedua kita click menu

Image > Adjust > Auto Level

Image > Adjust > Auto Contrast

untuk membetulkan warna dari fotonya…

3. ketiga kita click menu

Image > Adjust > Hue / Saturation

untuk mengatur saturasi dan hue yang dibutuhkan agar foto kita sesuai ma-nuansa yang kamu butuhkan.. dalam kasus ini jadi seperti ini…

2.jpg

4. Kita copy gambar ini menjadi 3 layer berbeda…

4.jpg

5. Di layer pertama lakukan efek Filter > Artistic > Poster Edges dan sesuaikan kira-kira seperti ini

5.jpg

6. Di layer kedua lakukan efek Filter > Artistic > Cutout untuk melakukan simplifikasi warna

6.jpg

7. As you can see layer 1 (poster) akan menjadi edge dari gambar kita, layer 2 (cutout) akan menjadi warna trace dari gambar kita

8. Hapus beberapa bagian dari layer 1 (poster) agar dia hanya menunjukan edgenya aja.. saran gw apus pake line-wand biar gambarnya keliatan kaku…

7.jpg

9. So layer1 (poster) akan terlihat kira-kira seperti ini . . . bagian putih itu adalah bagian yang dihapus, tergantung bagaimana detail yang kamu mau perhatikan :D

8.jpg

10. Dan lakukan simplifikasi warna di layer 2 (cutout) dengan cara hapus warna kompleks.. pokonya simplifikasi lah… coba usahain kesederhanaannya mirip sama Trace picture :D coba bandingkan gambar dibawah ini dengan gambar di poin 6

9.jpg

11. So kalo kita gabungkan keduanya… voila! well.. the quality of your result akan tergantung attention to detail kamu, gambar sumber dan usahanya hehehe.. gluck :D

10.jpg

Yap… Trace-Like :D

Do you know, i finally barely reach my common sense
and try to reach what i really want :D

So then i do what my common sense with clear vision
and steady mind. . .

So I do the “important” SMS, and then i get the reply…

You know what’s going on ? my HP hang.. the keypad jammed,
on my HP screen i can read “2 new messages arrived”, but I
can’t read the content :(( :((

So i bought the new Hand phone… but i still can’t read the frickin’ message since it’s
saved on the old hand phone..

Anyway.. on my Birthday yesterday i was forced to sing a song. . . this is the
happy song about life…

Little Wonders - Rob Thomas

let it go,
let it roll right off your shoulder
don’t you know
the hardest part is over

let it in,
let your clarity define you
in the end
we will only just remember how it feels

our lives are made
in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate

time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

let it slide,
let your troubles fall behind you
let it shine
until you feel it all around you

and i don’t mind
if it’s me you need to turn to
we’ll get by,
it’s the heart that really matters in the end

our lives are made
in these small hours
these little wonders,
these twists & turns of fate

time falls away,
but these small hours,
these small hours still remain

all of my regret
will wash away some how
but i can not forget
the way i feel right now

in these small hours
these little wonders
these twists & turns of fate
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away but these small hours
these small hours, still remain,
still remain
these little wonders
these twists & turns of fate
time falls away
but these small hours
these little wonders still remain

and i’m suck at singing a song hiehiehie
