FAQ

Where did you finish high school? And college?
- I finished high school in St. Paul Parañaque back in 2007, and I finished my bachelor’s degree in Communication Arts in the University of Santo Tomas in 2011.

What are you doing right now?
- I am currently a copyeditor for SPi Global.

Your surname is Chan. Are you Chinese?
- Yes and no.

Are you taken? If yes, where is your boyfriend?
- Yes. Alvin and I have been together since April 2009. He is currently finishing a second Bachelor’s Degree in another school.

Do you copy someone’s style when you draw? How do you draw?
- I can’t. I don’t like pretending to be someone else. My art movement, as my sister said, is not Realist. I think it’s more on Modern, but you go be the judge.

Where do you get your inspiration?
- When it comes to plain blogging here, I get it basically anywhere. It can be anything from a random picture to something our family discusses over Sunday lunch. I have a shitload of photos here because I am random and I like taking pictures like that, and I have a truckload of words because I was raised in a family where everyone is supposed to be aware with current events and politics, and an opinion on everything is highly encouraged.

What’s your creative process?
- Read young adult book. Grab design book/magazine. Look at pictures. Sleep on it. Wake up. Eat. Read. Look again. Sleep again. Now create something. Rinse and repeat.

Are you that choir girl from church?
- Maybe. :)

What is this blog all about? I mean, really?
-It’s a Life Blog. While most other people rave about clothes, cars, gadgets and food or rant about their problems, I’m just going to be the girl who lets everything slide and can make do with what’s around her.

At the end of the day, who are you?
- I’m just me. Simply put, I’m badass. In a more descriptive sense, I try to maintain a no-holds-barred way of talking/typing/blogging. But once you see me in real life, you’d realize I’m more of a total dork than most people actually think I am. Lastly, I’m just me. I don’t pretend to be pretty/perfect, or pretty perfect; I just try hard most of the time. :)
