Introduce Myself : Bong, Ellie Bong
The Girl Named Bong
My mom calls me Ellie, and that name stuck to me like a sticky glue. Everyone calls me that.
I am enrolled for animation in Multimedia University and I do freelance jobs to improve my skills and gain experience. I was recommended to this platform by @sireh, my ex-lecturer who encourage us to swim with the whales and play with the dolphins. I didn't understand why he said that, but now I do. Then he told us that in doing that, we actually earn. I am like GET OUT! You got to be kidding me.
My Story
I tell you a story about a little girl with the name BONG. It was a special name. I once introduce myself and a kid said,
'Hey Bong, Ka-Baboom!'
I was speechless. I gave it a thought but although my response was a bit slow, but I replied,
'Then, I will ask my dad to boom you!'
Yeah, I know. The boy was childish right? Ishh...but my response stunned him. Noone make fun of me after that.
(I didn't hit him, but this was the image in my mind)
In high school I still don’t really know what 'Bong' is. Whenever I type 'Bong' in chatrooms, it would come out as 'Bongus'. I googled for the word, then suddenly I am a crack head for the longest time. Gosh.
In University, one of my lecturer called me Ms. Bong, it was like the most elegant sounding thing. It sounded like 5th Symphony. Very grand. I thought it made me sound like, 'Hi my name is Bong, James Bong'. Anyway, it is my family name and I am proud of it.
My Art
I like to draw portraits but I am trying to learn to draw more landscapes, buildings, and characters. Here is my work.
This was when I am experimenting with colors and styles. It started with base hair with beanie, then I change the color, add different kind of specs and add some posses, wa laa! They look like different girls with their own personality.
I look forward to this platform. I hope to swim with the whales and play with the dolphins. See you guys real soon.
