Where did the yay ! go in yay!everyday ?

I was on Pasquale's site when I saw that he was linking to yay!everyday, a site for creative content and a spinoff from yay!monday.

Curious, and somewhat intrigued, I wanted to give it a shot. So I asked Pasquale, think I should go for this ? Without even hesitating he gave me an invite. With the kind of capacity I had : little paper, lots of pens, a defunct scanner and a 2.0 megapixel camera (i.e. my phone), I thought there'd be no harm trying.

But I was wrong.

No doubt, yay!everyday features good art. Very good art. It can sometimes be eccentric. But does it not feature stuff we come across everyday ? Aside from the fact that everyday, we can come across something weird ? Maybe, I'm just not fit to be one of the elite. Maybe, I don't have a place among top artistes. But can't people see some form of meaning in it ? Like how a rainbow would mean love and happiness, for example ? Like how I sometimes pour my heart into this stuff ?

No, the heart is an incomprehensible thing, and not everyone can see into it, I guess.

I'm sorry, Pasquale, to have screwed your invite, but the admin removed everything. I can never find my place there. troisnyx* is a nobody in that vast realm of art.

And to all at yay!everyday, happy trails to you until we meet again. That too, if we do.
