I'm sitting and watching boys flirting girls then breaking their heart. I'm watching girls cheating on boys then people will call them 'bitch'. I'm watching boys and girls sending 'break up' via sms.
I'm maybe solid but there is lava inside me. I notice this circle, which people call love, everyday. Boy, don't you see your girl is crying for you? Girl, don't you see your boy is sacrificing for you? Are you sure when you tattoo her name on your chest, boy? Are you sure when you set your relationship status on facebook, girl? Am i overthinking? Why am i sick of lovey-dovey couples? My heart's still sinkable, shakable and bendable, i'm still a human. Don't worry for me. I'll keep wandering and collecting pieces of heart. Maybe someday i will love somebody again, and then i may lose everything again, but i won't regret, i won't blame it on anybody, i will take all the faults again.
Wedding cake. This was a monster of a cake, bottom tier was a 12" fruit cake, massive! And so heavy! I had to transport the cake in 2 parts, bottom tier and then the top 3 and stack it and finish it at venue. It was keeping my awake at night how I was going to manage, I think I overthink it all!
This one was harder than I'd anticipated, but I used Superimpose and Aviary to put multiple pictures together. I tried to work on more of a concept with this one, hoping to illustrate overthinking/anxiety (inspired by all my college application work)

Optical art is probably my most thoughtless type of painting I can produce. I don't overthink it. I just think about playing with the eyes.

Not the best photo in the world today. I'm having a low on inspiration day. The weather is absolutely horrible, I'm at work and I have a lot to do when I get home, so I was desperate to get my photo done and dusted before home time. I've been having one of those days where you overthink your shot too much, which always ends up in me photographing something very random - hence a picture of some confetti I used in my Day 100 shot!
Oh well, tomorrow is my birthday so hopefully that will up my mood a bit. I'm not looking forward to being ANOTHER year older at all.... but I am looking forward to presents (namely my new point and shoot Canon camera that's coming :D) and having an afternoon in Manchester on Saturday with the hubby followed by Coldpay at the Etihad stadium.
Over the years, Drake has had many restless nights. Ever since his childhood, he’s been a victim of insomnia, often being kept awake by his anxious and depressing thoughts. Even when things are good in his life, he still finds it hard to get any rest—oftentimes getting caught up in his contentment to let his mind settle down, as even his happiness is something he can’t help but overthink about.
However, this time, that isn’t the case. Lately, Drake has been dealing with feelings of guilt, anxiety, longing, and confusion—brought about by issues much different from the stressors of his past. These issues feel more present—hauntingly so—because it’s not just for himself that Drake worries; it’s also for the two people he loves so deeply—ones he keeps very close to his heart—one of which who’s sleeping right beside him, blissfully unaware of his mental turmoil. He’s afraid of being the one to hurt them both, and in a way, he feels he’s deserving of his restlessness.
What I find interesting about this picture isn’t the human who’s almost perfectly centred at a distance. It isn’t even the leading lines of the sunshade on the building on the right hand side. It’s the trees. Notice the bottom part of the trees. These pavements are actually concrete, and a small hole is made to allow the trees planted there to grow. But more often than not, the hole made turns out to be small and the tree breaks through the concrete as it grows tall.
What we need to understand from this is that these trees actually break through the concrete only because we humans control their growth. Or do we? You see, there’s a narrow line that distinguishes control from restriction. Control is placing a few constraints and directing something. Whereas restriction is a step or two further than that. It’s about severely dictating something.
I think that the concept of control applies to our life as well. We try to live a life without distractions, without junk that would make us unproductive and lazy. And whether we achieve such a lifestyle depends our ability to control our mind. Our ability to control our temptations and restrict attraction towards the things we know will make us unproductive.
It’s quite easy to get carried away by the notion of productivity and tend to overdo things by constantly working for long hours and not take a moment to check our direction of progress. But work without direction and supervision would lead to monotony- basically boredom. So while it’s important to ensure productivity by staying in control of our mind, it’s also important to spoil ourselves to a small healthy amount to ensure that we don’t get burnt out due to overworking or overthinking.
I think this applies to workplace ethics as well. An aspect of micromanagement involves the push towards achieving 100% productivity all the time. But let’s remind ourselves, although we live in an era of technological domination, we’ve not been able to achieve 100% productivity even with machines. So how would it be just to even expect 100% productivity from humans who are far slower than machines (in some tasks). So let’s get back to the topic. We need to understand that they too are people. They will have days when they’re super-productive, and they’ll have a few days when they’re probably too overworked and need rest, so their productivity is going to be less. It’s a mix of the two that makes humans and their life interesting. I think that we need to start appreciating humans for having imperfections, making them an interesting species. I think we need to accept and understand one another and make up for one another’s weaknesses by supporting each other, for that’s what humanity is defined by- constant support of each other in times of need.
Phew! We’ve come a long way in this post- from control to productivity to support to humanity. This power of the human brain to relate one thing with another makes us the most interesting species in the world. The human brain surely wanders wildly about a train of thoughts doesn’t it?
You can’t be that kid standing at the top of the waterslide, overthinking it. You have to go down the chute.
One of my waking dream comics. They pop into my head instantaneously and I jot them down without overthinking the punchline.
On Sunday I finally tried out the kite that was given to me by Ryan's mom two easters ago. It was pretty windy that morning but by mid-afternoon when I finally got out there things had died down.
Attempting to fly a kite was a lot of fun though and I've decided to make several more attempts in the coming months. Considering Boston's formidable winds, it shouldn't be much of a problem.
It's important for me to find things I can't overthink.
v4 (lol... beginning to think that I'm overthinking this one) but I was determined to get my purple into the mix This version is the one I'm sticking with..... really!
I made a simple pattern based on my 3rd improvisational block, using blue, brown, yellow and gray fabrics. I love how simple it is but that I can mix scrap piecing and other surprises into it. I think it will become more improvisational-feeling as it grows, but it's something I can piece quickly and have fun with... and hopefully not overthink! My dream is a bed quilt. 12 blocks down, maybe another 40-45 to go!

I wish I could shut off my mind when it comes to you, close my eyes and breathe and not hear the sound of my thoughts crashing against the insides of my skull. I wish I didn’t lay awake at night, overthinking every little thing, re-remembering conversations we’ve had, inserting...

Stuck inside my head.
After I posted yesterday, my ever-so vague plans got ever-so vague-er. I still have the plane ticket, I'm still leaving on February 5th, but the job thing has been put on hold. The company I want to work for has changed their mind - they still want me, but now they're saying it probably won't be until May. This has all turned into a bit of a roller coaster ride, and once in a while I just feel like I want to get off.
But I don't really. So I've spent today thinking about my next steps, and what they might look like, and I realize that my biggest problem really is that there are too many options.
Where I struggle, is that for once in my life, I'm trying to follow my heart and not my overly logical head, and I'm a little out of practice. It's working so far, and it feels great, but sometimes I have a little trouble deciphering its messages. I overthink things and analyze them and second guess. But I know what the right choice is here, deep inside I know what I need to do. I'm leaving on February 5th. I know where I need to go. I just have to trust myself enough to do it.
An acrylic painting on canvas. This one is based on a series I'm working on which examines images and phrases that instantaneously pop into my head and are jotted down without the process of editing or overthinking the idea.
I'm sure I'm overthinking this, (it's my superpower), but I'm torn when it comes to determining which eco-friendly, sustainable, frugal, ethical, maker/indie-friendly wardrobe options are the best.
• Double gauze infinity scarf. Shown wrapped 3 times in the photo. Love the fabric, but not sure it's something I'll use. I have enough for a second, so this will be gifted or destashed. Want to sew with more double gauze now.
Juliette put some cherries in my lunch the other day, and I had fun spitting them into the garbage can by my desk.
It's kind of an odd thing, having my wife make my lunch for me. Nice, but odd. The feeling of opening a lunch bag and discovering what's inside is certainly a familiar one, but it's not one I've had regularly in quite a long time.
I've heard people say that all men want to be mothered, that we all just want to be boys again. I don't know to what degree this is true for me, but the possibility that it is true at all is something that I find a bit troubling. Perhaps I'm overthinking things.

The main challenge was to overthink the process of seeing around every corner of your city and avoid traffic jams. Also, provide fault/no fault accident details reporting for disputed accidents.
This is my favorite kind of design: the stuff everyone knows, but no one thinks about (or more importantly overthinks). It's just "there" and it becomes a part of the lives of 1000s of people.
Yep, a member of honour I would say. Especially at moments where he's laying and overthinking foibles...
Its a bird... it's a plane... no, it's another EVERY DAY ESCAPE ARTIST! You may recognize 2/3 of this team as Team Fugue... well, they're back again with fresh meat to tackle another room!
Let us introduce you to Team HARBOW, this weeks Everyday Escape Artists who smashed the record time for Clinic 1.5! (With no hints we might add!)
Let me tell you guys, this is one real fantastic family team. They’ve been proudly sporting their onesies all night for Kevin’s birthday (in the tux) and they finished up their adventures with us by beating Clinic 1.5 in only 18:24!!!
Jen and Derek (pink and batman) have done 20 escape rooms together, with Kevin close behind with 17, wowza! As such experts we just had to see if they had any tips for newcomers. They suggest if you’ve been stuck on a puzzle for more than 5 minutes, its time to call for a hint. Same goes for if it stops being fun, just get past that one step so you can get back to having fun.
Don’t overthink the little things, stay focused and don’t be overwhelmed by the timer. Always play to your strengths.
Before they headed home for some cake and birthday shenanigans, Jen left us with some great words of wisdom “Nerdy is cool, quirky is fun!”

The higher the walls you built around your heart, the harder you'll fall for the one who is strong enough to tear them down. According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four legs, four arms and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them apart, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other half. We are all searching for the other half of us who complete our lives to be perfect, so they are definitely not going to be perfect. That's what love is I guess.:)
Took this in the Kuala Lumpur International Motor Show 2010. That was last year. Fun time:)
I watched Step Up today. The first one, not the sequel. Channing Tatum. Hahas. Ah. Love stories. I've been thinking a lot lately. A lot. Maybe it;s true that I've Overthinking Syndrome. Hahas:)
Why doesn't everyone wear flowers in their hair all the time every day? Because man, does it lifts ones' spirits.
I don't know what my emotions are trying to do to me these days. Kill me, probably. Hope used to be my perpetual emotion, and lately I've been overwhelmed with emotional weight.
But through it all, through all the overthinking and tears and anger and frustration and hurt and loss and confusion, God is good. God is so good. God is so good always, and my problems are so small when I remember that they're snugly held in the palm of his perfect plan.
So everything is not just fine;
everything is good.
I have a tendency to overthink everything, so in this portrait, I tried to convey the idea of thoughts, words, and feelings constantly running through my mind. First I isolated the area that was my head and masked it out. For the background, I created a solid blue rectangle and used an oversized brush tool to create random dots. With the smudge tool, I made the circles much less precise, and then swirled a large version of the brush up the page to give the illusion of motion. Then I changed the shape of the top of my head because my hair was doing a really weird pointy thing that I didn't like. To finish, I created a path with the pen tool and typed out "Thoughts, Words, Feelings" into it. I didn't like the look of it, but wanted to somehow incorporate it into the image, so I changed it to the font Bookshelf Symbol 7, which I thought displayed my train of thoughts perfectly.
→You could break my heart in two and when it heals,
it'd still beat for you.
I know it's forward,
but it's true.
I wont lie.
My thoughts are running loose.
I could fight but what's the use?
You're stuck in my head and I can't get you out of it.
Playing and replaying old conversations,
overthinking every word and I hate it.←
