Diary -24th July

  I tried learning Greek and Japanese. German is too easy and boring but I will get back to it as soon as I can. I wonder why not learn pretty much any real language on Duolingo? It will give me the variety I want.  The Greek letters sound just like Hindi letters. But the Greek letters are also like English letters. Here is my secret to Indian English. In Japanese gohan is rice. It sounds like go or cow or white and anna which means grain.

I have played around a lot with colors. I must insist that you do the same according to your tastes and requirements. Hair Here is how we use the ovals to assemble the hair.  Like this, also use ovals to complete the other side.  Flowers Let us draw a single flower then we will copy and paste it again and again.  Start with a circle.  Then draw two more concentric circles of colors you like.  Now add the petals using the teardrop shape.  Use another color to draw an inner...
