Work

I managed to finish my sketch model in two days, unbelievable, though not perfect, but it's still done, hehe. Now it's just to complete the sketchbook, match my surface designs, and I'm off to build the final model!!!! (dreadful......)

In case if you are wondering what I'm talking about, it's my project that I have been doing for.... roughly two months? about one month plus i guess. We are to pick a theme and design a space (only for us future Interior Architecture students, Graphic Design students has to do a different task) and mine is a trance themed lounge!! Thought it was interesting at the beginning, which it was, as I'm obsessed with designing my own dinning area, but now as I've been working for so long, with 6 sketch models done and one final model coming up, no, it ain't fun anymore.......

But for now, I'm kind of hooked with my visual journal, though I do not really fancy drawing (I'm only good with stick man!!!) and cracking my head for ideas, but I really love it every time I finish a page!!! haha, simple, cartoonish drawings which are cute~~ my style ^^and for those of you wondering where I got my character, here's a picture of it:

The original

I simplified and modified it to suit me and made it my own, can't draw intricate things, if you all have noticed all my 'graphic' work, they are all big, bold drawings, such as my stamp design, corby phone, and even during our first sem self-impression drawing, everything is big, bold and chunky. Here's my version:

My robot!!!

Well, it's not as good as the original, but it's mine ^^ I have to draw 30 pages of it though, have to crack my head for 30 different ideas, not something I'm looking forward to, by I know I'll love the outcome =D

Inner Thoughts #2 : Love

Does loving a person means that you will be willing to give up everything in this world for the other? Your future, wealth, friends, family, and even life? Will there always be a price to pay for loving someone? There will never be a definite answer.......

Some people are willing to give up everything just to be with the one they love, which are most commonly seen in movies, but there are also some in reality. They would want nothing more than to be with their loved ones, even if it means leaving their family. No bargain in this world would ever break them apart, for their hearts are tied together in a dead knot, with locks and chains where the key has long been gone, trusted away to a place unknown by others, unable to be retrieved. They will live together, and die together, and the phrase 'till death do us apart' will never be applicable. They will go through hardship together, so will they go through triumph, and never will they be found in a place where only one exists.

Their whole life revolves around each other, creating sweet memories that would last a life time, and they would not care less if the world turns against them, for as long as both exist, deeply in love with one another, that is more than sufficient. The world might crumble around them, but in their eyes they only have each other, and hand in hand, they would be able to go through anything. Love is everything, losing it, means losing their life........

But for others, where love is not everything, will see that as a foolish thought, irrational they might say. For these 'others', they want nothing more than freedom, to be able to do as they wish, not limited by others. Having someone in their life would be an addition, an addition to give them happiness, an addition that will last with them for the rest of their life, but never an addition to control them. They would be delighted to have someone in their life, to care, to cherish, to love them, and they would, in return, love them with all their heart.

These people are often mistaken to be heartless, selfish, atrocious, as they will not compromise when being told go against their will, being stubborn as stubborn may be, unwilling to change. Though they might try, and some would succeed, while others would fail, but doing something you do not want, is not that forcing, lying to yourself? But why would they end up with someone who is the total opposite of what they are, they who are so carefree, allowing the other to do as they wish, while the other controls, not allowing them to do what they desire. Maybe that is where the term 'opposites attract' comes into the picture. But it indeed is suffering, do not you think, when their interest are at ends?

It's just hard to know what you want, you want someone who thinks of you as the most precious thing in their life, unable to lose you for anything in this world, but when the person clings on too much, you suffocate. On the other hand, if the person loves you enough just to be there for you, allowing you to do as you wish, not minding even if you attempted suicide as long as you are safe at the end of the day, you think that that person does not love you enough....... Maybe a mixture of both, treating you as their most precious and would not compromise for anything else but you, and at the same time would give you your freedom and allow you to do as you wish as long as they know that you are safe?

Well, maybe...........

Relieve

*breathe in* *breathe out*

Dreadful, utterly dreadful, being in a situation where you know something is coming and have no choice but to wait. It's even worst than experiencing it first hand. Well, not counting the fact where the dreadful matter might in the end dissolve due to circumstances that makes it unable to be carried out. However, being in this sort of situation will give you the opportunity to experience that great sense of relief when all is over, being able to slouch down in a chair knowing that those excruciating moments that you have been enduring for days, weeks, months, or maybe years is finally history. But is it worth having to suffer before hand? I don't know..........

It's over, done with, a thing of the past, HISTORY!! No more worrying, hard pounding, mind racing moments, it's gone, never coming back.

I'm done with my moral and Malaysian studies presentation!!!! ahahahahahaha, okay, I'm going crazy, thinking of it as some life-time crisis and that the world would come to an end because of it. Those dreadful moments were indeed dreadful, but not as bad as I've listed it. I only started to get nervous the day before, but the weeks before i still had the sense of uneasiness though, knowing the fact that i would most definitely have my heart pounding moments when the time is about to come.

Imagine, having to do a presentation in my class itself is already enough to make my stomach flip, what more doing it in a hall with more than 100 students. I wanted to just skip class and gave up on the 10 marks, haha (it was just a thought, I would come even if it's 5 marks) and, well, it wasn't too bad, though having about 200 eyes staring at you speaking isn't very pleasing, i still manage to be one of the highest for Malaysian studies, which i have no idea how that happened, as there were like god knows how many people that were better and more confident than me (my hands were shivering and i think a had pauses and i was stuttering when i speak, can't exactly remember how i did, my mind was blank, only focused on finishing it) but, well, thanks Mr. Al!!!! ^^

I'm not exactly sure bout my moral results, but i just have the feeling that i did pretty bad, I couldn't speak malay properly T.T and it was longer than Malaysian studies cause Mr.Al stopped everyone after talking for bout a minute or so, while Mr.Z made us talk longer, resulting in more pronunciation error.

But whatever it is, it's over

Gone with the wind........................

Birthday Present

Happy happy happy~~~~ don't know what to say........ HAPPY!!!!!!

Went to Mid-valley today, my bro wanted to go for the education fair there, planning to take his masters, trying to look for universities, so I just went with him, see who would get more brochures, haha, but we didn't really count in the end......

*If you're wondering why we are competing, let me feed you on a little history of our past ^^. Years before, when I was still in form 1, and my brother was about to start college, we went for the education fair at that time as well, and for some reason, the people there kept feeding me on all the brochures instead of him!!! (do I look that old T.T) And just so you know, whenever we go on tour for holidays, those people in our group would think I'm the elder sister!!! Sad......... I'm just tall okay, thus, making me look mature, I'm not that old, mind you people......

Back to the story, so, went for edu fair, walked about, gathered some info (I went collecting design brochures and looking at the student's portfolio, akakaka, steal ideas ^^) and off to art friends after that. On the way, we passed by a boutique, and saw this dress draped beautifully over a mannequin, and then, that was the moment *angels singing* *world moving backwards* *light shinning down from heaven* (hahahaha, fine fine, I'm pretty much over exaggerating, just to add drama into my story XD)

Anyhow, we passed by the boutique, and saw this dress at the front window, and I loved it when I saw it. My brother thought that it looked good as well (can't remember who was the first one to acknowledged the dress) and it was pretty unique, so, out of curiosity, we went in to check out the price.

Went in the shop, search search search, and there it is!!!! But when I picked it up from the shelf, it looked ridiculous, like some pyjamas, but it looked awesome on the mannequin (well, I'm sure many of you have experience this before, picking up something hideous from the racks, but looks great when you put it on, yea, this dress is that sort of clothing). Then picked up the price tag......... OMG!!!!! %@#&$%#@!#% what on earth...... but kinda expected it already, from this kind of boutique, it's pretty much predictable, haha. Then the shop lady was like, you can try if you want, and my brother was 'go la, try la, try only marr, it looks good', so, okay, since you say so. So, went to try, and AAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!! Love it so much!!!!! Showed my brother and he was like 'looks good on you, doesn't make you look fat' O.o ^$%@&#%#!% (call me fat pulak) So, I stare stare stare (kinda reluctant to take it off), and then , my bro said the magic words 'If you want I buy for you la, as your birthday pressie, it's a really nice dress' O.O!!!!! But I was still reluctant, so expensive!!! So I told him I'llsee first, think about it, and finally took the dress off and went over to art friends.

We took awhile there, couldn't make up my mind on what materials to get, and when we're finally done, we went back to Mid-valley. And my brother asked again 'so do you want the dress, I'll buy for you, it's really nice, and it's unique.' (he's paying for it and he's asking me to buy, prompting me to spend his money, even though I'm not paying also sakit hati leh....) Finally, after few more persuasions, I'm getting the dress!!!! (my mom made a lot of noise though, said it's not worth it, could get cheaper and nicer ones, but my bro asked me not to listen to her, her fashion sense not good, ahahahaha XD sorry mommy.....) So, yea, went back to the shop, and bought the dress.

Hehehehehehe~~~ so happy~~~~Thanks Big Bro!!!! Really love the dress, I'll get you something good for your birthday too kay!!! Thank You!!! Love you so much!!!! ^^

Caution: some of you might think the dress looks weird, I don't know, personal taste, but I love it, and I'm pretty much over-joyed, hehehe. =P

P.S. I know my blog post is kinda long winded, writing down every single detail, but I cut it short at the end already, if not I'll be telling you the whole story bout the time I was in art friends and how my mom objected us from buying, hahaha XD

Brother's Convocation

Okay, so my brother has officially graduated, he has received his slip of paper that cost roughly a 100k, and he's finally out into the working world, congrats bro!!! (though i know that you dread working life, but, well, life's like that, congratulations ^^)

For starters, some random stuff we did in college while we were suppose to study for moral

Hearts from all of us =D

Siew Leng showed them to us and we started having some 'The Art of Folding Hearts' class. In the end, don't know how to answer the moral quiz :S

I went for my bro's convocation in the evening, ended up going there before my brother arrived (parents tidak sabar-sabar....) and because of my brother's 'giamness' (kedekut/unwillingness to spend) he went to park all the way at pyramid, cause he was thinking that the hotel was really expensive, when it was only 2 bucks, ahahahaha~~ (think weekdays maybe, not too sure why is it so cheap). As we were walking in from the parking lot, I saw this:

It's on the event list~~

Then, while waiting, snap pictures of surrounding:

Waiting area

Flowers, freaking expensive.......

Registration Hall

Finally, my bro arrived!!! Went to collect his robe and mortar, and he brought us our tickets to enter.

Look like Harry Potter XD

Went in the hall to sit after that, my legs were starting to kill me (I wore heels since morning T.T). Westerners are real westerners, unlike us Malaysian, say start at 6pm, in the end 8pm only start, haha. They started right on the dot, 6pm, no earlier, no later. But the whole thing was quite a bore, talk the whole way, and watch students go on the stage to receive their certificate. So, what I did to conquer boredom.............. Fold money hearts!!!!

My mom gave me RM10 to fold, guess she ran out of RM1, haha

Also went through the booklet they gave, and I saw my bro's name ^^

Cover

Ta-dah!!! ^^

Then, wait wait wait wait, finally, it's over!!! Time for refreshments (makan~~~), all cabut to the buffet table.

Food~~~ (salivate~~~~)

I stole his mortar, hehehe, and his cert!!!

His best buddy, Yasir, with girlfriend, Joanna (hope I got the spelling right)

My Family~~

Finally, go home!!! And continue with my work T.T had to finish all my sketch models, worked till 3am+, aikz........

Photography Assignment

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!! My blog!!!!! I miss you so much.............. T.T

College life...... where is the life may I ask?? Most of it is about work, and the work is never ending, when will it ever end...... (in 2 months time, sem break sem break~~ ^^)

For our Photography assignment, we are required to take 2 pictures, one still life and one portraiture, and I had no idea what to take...... but my bro gave me the inspiration when he took all his little mage knight figurines out (wanted to show me the tool box actually, because I just bought one which is similer to his to put my art stuff, his is, well, filled with his mage knight.

My Toolbox~~ (wuliao, toolbox also wanna snap....... only had yellow and blue, and all the blue cacat liao T.T)

So, after seeing all the cute little figurines (well, they're not suppose to be cute, but, well, err..... they're so small!!! and mostly, small/tiny=cute ^^), I went to grab a bunch of them and lay them on the floor, stole my bro's DSLR (I asked!!) and started snapping!! I think i snapped bout 30-40 pictures just to get the settings right =S (i'm not that much of a pro, heheh). As for the portraiture, I got my very own darling to pose for me!!! akakaka, he malu-malu ayam, so adorable, haha.

The so called cute figurines, haha, but interesting aren't they.... scary for some though =S

Eeeeep, my Stitch plushy!! i dare you to say it's not cute......

My darling~~ (don't kill me for posting this up.........) thanks for posing for me by the way ^^ muax!! love you~~

I don't know which still life should I choose, the figurines or plushy...... wanna ask my bro but he pandai-pandai keluar minum sama kawan dah =.= but most probably I'll take the mage knight, has more contrast in it, hehehe........
