You know the thing they always tell people like me: “you are not a waste, you're just special, and you are beautiful this way” and stuff. As if “special” had become a synonym for freak.

But you know how it works: when you're trying to get a job, that kind of “specialness” is not desirable, thank you very much. So being an extremely shy, extremely clumsy person with extreme phobias, my only hope is to – somehow, magically – become someone else before I step foot in a job interview.

I guess, getting shocked by fear in the edge of the town (one of my inborn phobias); getting some manure in my freshly-washed hair; getting completely lost, then realizing that I went out of the town on the wrong road; being 20 minutes late; then not being able to speak about how awesome I am (which I am of course not, but which every not awesome person must testify on a job interview), or – not being able to speak about anything –… I guess these exhaust the concept of being myself. I won't be a secretary at Boros és Fiai Ltd.

Yhea, well… that pretty much sums up our relationship. :)

If you've ever thought that being obsessed with letters is such a weird disease that nobody else shows symptoms of it except for me (and maybe the Typofreak Club), then I have to disappoint you.

There is a group on Facebook called Typo Budapest, in which similarily typofreak people upload their photos of outdoor typography made mostly in Budapest, but also in some other places. Then they discuss them, and everyone is happy. 

That works perfectly in a big city like the capital of Hungary – in a small town like mine the whole thing becomes more complex though. You must face certain difficulties, like when you take more than two pictures, all the people in the streets (which means all 10) are either thinking you're from the authorities, or
they call for the authorities to arrest you. No wonder there is no Typo Jászberény group on Facebook.

Today's drawing is kinda irregular considering its format, and also that it's written in Hungarian. In May I was asked to draw comic strips for a local newspaper of a village near Budapest. It was my first try. I thought tho that it can be used as part of my 365IP as well. Big thanks to Balázs for the story idea, and to Tamás for the gggenius title.

English translation:
“From 07. 01. 2012. our Terms of Service will change. Details…”

Guys. Never dress up as a Comic Sans Criminal on a costume party in which there are only normal people. Trust me. They won't appreciate it very much.

Why, isn't art supposed to make you think?!...

You've already heard of my BFF, Enikő. You could have seen a lot of drawings featuring her, but you probably do not know that she has a brilliant page called
It is a blog where she uploads pictures of all those yummy cakes and cookies she made and to some of them she adds recipes as well. And believe me, she is a pretty damn brilliant cook.

Now when I was thinking of baking something for an upcoming event (picture the day after tomorrow) and also for someone I'm very thankful to, it wasn't even a question who do I ask for a cool recipe. And I wasn't disappointed, it was a wonderful stuff indeed. Something that is delicious, but also easy to make. And it could have been a quick job… if I wasn't stupid enough to run to the shop for supplies three times during the process.


Go have a check and show her some love: http://enikesutivilaga.blogspot.hu/ 
(Right now the recipes are available only in Hungarian, but fortunately pictures are international, aren't they! :)

Yes, well guessed, this is my cutesy-wootsy doggy-woggy, and yes, I found another similarity between us.
