Doodling with colours

Not a long time ago, I tried the art of doodling and really enjoyed this type of drawing. It is traditionally drawn with only a black pen but I decided to improve my doodling skills by including some colours. To be honest, it was hard to think of the object to draw that I would be able to colour later because usually it's a very small and detailed drawings. So after some time searching of inspiration on the internet I found planets and clounds coloured in various ways and instantly thought of recreating those pictures.
It wasn't hard to draw the figures but it was challenging to mix up pastel colours for the clouds. I tried mixing normal colours with white to make them the way I wanted but it didn't really worked out and the colours weren't as pastel as I anticipated them to be. Despite this, I think the end result turned out quite cute which is exactly what I was trying to achieve. 
As for the planets I didn't want them to be realistic in any way and tried to make each one somewhat different and I think I did pretty well. It was hard though to figure out the colours that would match together but I'm happy with he end result. 
It was a different experience but I would still stick to the original black and white doodling style.

Conference for scientists

Image
Vita Scientia is a conference which gathers life scientists from around the world every two years. I have never previously heard about this kind of event organized by Vilnius University students but as soon as my biology teacher a month prior to the conference offered to take part as a volunteer I agreed with no thought of hesitation.  Well, I didn't even expect to be regretful about such a decision in the future but I was wrong. It appeared to be on the last and busiest day of my Christmas holidays and the organizers were asking to volunteer for thirteen hours straight! I was devastated to finish last works and tasks of holidays but there was no way I could miss this kind of event. Not only I was interested to participate in it as much as possible myself, but I couldn't refuse to help out the organizers as there were only ten of us volunteers. So a little past 7:30 am I was already at the agreed place. To my surprise, there was nothing to do there and all of us ten were sim...

Making lunch for two

Image
Long days at school require proper lunch to fuel the brain and the body for the most efficiency at classes. My sister and I are vegetarians and this restricts our choices of lunch in the school canteen. The only options are usually some kind of soup or rice with veggies. This kind of food isn't nor nutritious neither delicious, thus we like to take meals from home. We are used to taking meals prepared by our mom but this usually means that after school you have to eat the same meal or make something on your own, which is not an option for us with all the school work. Taking all of this into account I figured to try out making quick meal for the two of us to take to school. Each day of the previous week I made something to eat for the next day and my sister was the one evaluating the taste and the meal itself. As we take meals in special food thermoses it was impossible to take proper photos and to be honest, I always forgot to do that. The only time I remembered in the morning was...

IB convention

Image
This year is a special one for Vilnius lyceum IB students because exactly twenty years have passed since IB program was founded in our school. It's something we should be proud of and celebrate together with other IB schools. Luckily, there's an annual event called IB convention, first organized by Kaunas Jesuit gymnasium years ago, which was a perfect opportunity to address pride-worthy anniversary. Our coordinators gathered all IB course a month or even more before the event to start an early organization. At first, it was hard to generate concrete ideas, especially as none of us imagined what the event should look like. It was much easier when people started to concentrate on particular aspects, such as food, CAS activities, speakers, overnight stay and, of course, welcoming, which I eventually joined as well. My task was mainly to organize the smooth proceeding of minor tasks such as present-, decoration-, arrow- and poster-making, as well as to find people willing t...
