Oh Happy Day...


I made this new quick sketch today. I was very inspired by Winsor McCay, one of my biggest influences. Ahh, I feel good when I enjoy doing rough sketches.

Anyway, I didn't know why I got many unique visitors today, so look at this screenshot. Then someone emailed me, I felt shocked. I am one of the 5 finalists for the Best Asian Weblog in
Eighth Annual Weblog Awards. I was like, "Oh really... is this true? Susmaryosep!!!" Honestly, I must confess that I thought my blog was just ordinary, hehehe. Really, I'm serious. Ahhh, this made my big day... Unbelievably, I keep smiling through the whole day.

I would be completely pleased if you vote for me for the
Best Asian Weblog then I give you my big hug, hehehe. *winks* Thank you very much for your support! I also give my big thanks to Annie-Kate and other unknown voters, who nominated me.

See you guys!

(I love your sketches the best, too. There's just something about the "blunt" pencil style that shows the paper texture... It's awesome. 8D )
