angelusiride Drawing is basically getting a pencil, pen, crayon or whatever medium you may have and doodling a picture of something. Painting meanwhile needs a more specific media--that is globs of colored liquid and usually a paint brush--in order for the artist to...

Painting a Wall

ElusiveButterfly @ElusiveButterfly (45940) • United States 5 Jan 07

Do you choose one color when painting a wall? I prefer using one color and adding a border that is color specific to the furniture of the room. My husband once painted a room using orange on one wall and blue on the other....

angelusiride Putting a fresh layer of paint on a couple's room is one of the toughest thing to do--at least in the construction of your home. Haha. ^_^ You may have very feminine taste while he tends to want a more masculine approach on the colors and details of the room....

Do you think people are just born with the ability to draw?

sarawaken @sarawaken (360) • Malaysia 28 Jan 07

I think it's natural talent.Talent that needs to be honed though because if someone has talent but never nurtures it they won't be any good.I think that it is possible for people to learn to draw well but they won't create the...

angelusiride Not necessarily. Anyone can draw, as far as I am concerned. And like you said, this ability takes a lot of effort to develop. If you don't practice, nothing good will come out. On the other hand, I think some people are born with the "eye"--and the passion....

Should I Push My 1st Grader? She Is Capable of So Much More.

devideddi @devideddi (1435) • United States 2 Feb 07

I started off her schooling at home. I home schooled her the kindergarten year only. I wanted to do it for the first few years but she wanted to be with other kids so badly I could not deny her that. Now she is in first grade...

angelusiride I say push her. It's great that you believe in your daughter so much and you think that she is capable of so much more. But before you do any "pushing", try to take your little girl on the side and sincerely ask if she wants to take a chance and get...

angelusiride I think kids get easily bored these days because there are a lot of distractions. I may seem to contradict myself but the thing is they no longer get to concentrate on the depth of things and merely enjoy the surface and superficialities. Imagine it this...

I go out and take a walk for hours just to relieve myself. Or watch a movie and repeat it all over again. What about you? What's the best therapy for loneliness and depression?

angelusiride Getting depressed only makes me paranoid. Paranoia leads to thinking and more thinking leads to worser depression. It's a vicious cycle--so to unwind, I distract myself by hanging out with my wacky friends, shopping, shopping with my wacky friends, watching...

To vote or not to vote, that is the question.

angelusiride @angelusiride (13) • Philippines 3 Feb 07

The political system in the Philippines is very disorganized. And that is why some people have given up and accepted the understanding that their votes do not count anyway. Politicians will rig the votes anyway, so to speak. But...

Would you stay with your adoptive parents or find your real ones?

angelusiride @angelusiride (13) • Philippines 31 Jan 07

I know someone who recently discovered that she is adopted. It was a crude moment when she did. She was in the middle of a brutal argument with her mom when suddenly her mom bursted out that she was just adopted anyway and that...

angelusiride hey, friend. ^_^ It's true that some people think of their cellphones as an "extension" of themselves but as for me, I believe that they are merely a convenient product of technology which we can rid of ourselves if we just choose to. I can live without it....
