just enough education to perform

you know how some things just strike you in the weirdest of hours, the weirdest of places?

i got struck, bebeh.

damn hard some more. i swear, reality is a mindfucker. yeap. it humps your brains so much that a cerebral orgasm just becomes... bleah.

its just like taking photographs. taking a picture used to mean so much. it was for special occasions, you know, weddings, birthdays, rare outings, blahdeblahs and yahdeyahs. but now its just EVERYWHERE. i think, somehow, photographs just lost its meaning. plus the fact that i can easily photoshop Ze Annoying Pimple in less than 5 minutes. ok, actually it takes less than a minute. BUT! my laptop makes it so that everything works thrice as slow. that plus a 10% leeway for any errors, you get 5 minutes. or 4.5 minutes. just for using the healing/patching tool on photoshop cs2. yeppers. so easy, right. once, i was at a printing shop that provided photoshop services and i heard the lady charge someone 60 bucks for red-eye removal and light correction.

but it takes skill, ok. i still remember the first graphcom class i had when shifu magically made cookies appear from a couple of brown circles. awesome, i tell you. i mean, mine turned out decent-looking but nowhere near as nice as shifu's. or maybe that's just a memory alteration since i could never duplicate the same thing when i got home. in the end, i just got a bunch of circles and a faulty ctrl z button.

hang on. i forgot my point.
