One would think that writing and editing go hand in hand. No, they do not.

My regular full-time job is editing medical text (and I do a little on the side as well). I’m not really sure that I am very good at it, which is strange to me because I actually enjoy writing so much. Aren’t they supposed to be siblings? Well, over the years I have learned that “writing” is like being the basketball player, but “editing” is like being the referee. Same game, much different roles. And if you were born to be a player, you may not have the patience to watch the side lines and call the fouls.

Forgetting the promise to be back soon,

You got busy in your errands till noon,

Waiting till the dusk  with rays of hope,

Like the designs of a kaleideoscope…

Twilight dimmed the hope of sight,

As darkness engulfed the lonely night….

Words for you I had kept,

In the golden chest in a casket,

Wishing that you would complete,

My rhyme that I had felt within…

Night passed with changing sides,

Thinking about  your absence meanwhile,

Realizing the void in the heart,

That was created when you depart…

 A promise lived a complete day,

Without having anything to say,

precious words are now weaved …

in the  form of a song that I feel…

 learning Adobe illustrator & photoshop

Some posters I made using  illustrator and photoshop.

After finishing first year of college I don’t want to abandon Adobe for the summer! I’m experimenting and trying new things out, hopefully getting better at design and illustrator.

To create these, I used  mostly geometric shapes, preset brushes and textures.
