I just got home. I realize that the post will have been completed later, but I can still say: “Today was a really really long day. It was a completely full day in its best sense. It was an awesome day, but it was also a very tiring day. I have enjoyed every minute of … Read more

Sebični socializem

by

Ponavadi, ko slišimo besedo sebičnost, pomislimo na “tiste sebične kapitaliste, ki želijo vse zase”, socialne demokrate pa ponavadi čislamo in povzdigujemo v višave, ko pa kaj narobe naredijo pa rečemo “hja, pač niso vsi popolni” ter jim pustimo da odkorakajo od odgovornosti brez posledic, česar sebičnemu pohlepnemu kapitalistu nikoli ne bi dopustili, ali pač? Socialni demokrati … Read more

Preparations for the summer

As you saw the title you probably thought: “this guy is already preparing for summer? Come on dude, it’s still relatively cool outside. Is he going somewhere?…” No, I’m not going anywhere, and yes it can still be very cold around here. Some mountaintops are actually still covered with snow. Crazy, right? Anyways… today’s afternoon … Read more

Skrivnost križa

by

Velika noč. Ta skrivnostni praznik. Zajci, pirhi, razna hrana čudnih vonjav, čakaj… zajci? Kaj pa teli delajo tu? Se opravičujem. Samo res. Zajci? Ta čudna nemška navada, ki spominja na skomercializiran božič? Ne, ne, to mora biti pomota. Križ. To je tisto, ja. Ampak kateri križ? Zakaj se ne govori o Jezusu in križu? O … Read more

A Trip to Belgrade

by

Last week I was unavailable and unreachable because I spent it in Belgrade. Before you start thinking “are they so primitive that they don’t have internet or phone service,” let me tell you that whenever I travel, for almost whatever reason, I try to not be as connected, so that I get the most out of the experience. And yes, they do have internet (though sometimes buggy) and cellphone service. The reason for the trip was Paratext and Publishing Assistant training for the Bible Society, because as you might know, I have been a designer and a typesetter (with some various other roles as a subcontractor as well) for the Bible society of Slovenia for about a year now. Now with some additional software training I will be able to do that way more efficiently. Praise God.

Here are some snaps from the week.

Izvor poroke

by

Družina, poroka, zakonska zveza, starši, otroci, roditelji, etc. vse te besede so dandanes pod napadom. Ravno par dni nazaj sem ogorčeno pisal o LGBT in kaj me muči pri rečeh, ki jih je Vlada na silo spravila skozi tisti dan. Veliko sem napisal in dokaj malo povedal. Kasneje, ko sem za nazaj razmišljal o tem, … Read more

Latest drawings

by
An Eye study

Lately I’ve had lots of things to do for projects that don’t show much tangible results, so I wanted to do some things, that are tangible and I can see. So for couple days, not necessarily in succession, I sat down behind my computer and just drew. In fact I drew so much, that my poor beaten up stylus broke. Anyhow… here is some of my latest work.
