suay

Ten days between my last submission and my first paper, I have to fall sick just the day before -_- I think I totally forced myself into recovery for today's paper. Full blown fever yesterday and not much sign of it today. Throat still really hurts though. Time out for some liberation and my recent indulgence: korean dancers!!! so sleeek!



haha. I am having fun with sharing youtube videos. Thanks liling for teaching me how!

The US of A

I'm probably too focused on the minor things I'm going to miss but I don't know... this year seem so wrong to go away.. I've never known so many taurians in my life! It's really a shame we can't hold the 'bubblegum pop' birthday party kim and I wanted.. just imagining everyone having to come as britney spears or a backstreet boys' member already makes me laugh. Birthday aside, I'm definitely going to miss all you friends, polo and the girls sooo much. Really wish I could be shopping with u all in bangkok. Knock yourselves out girls =) I can't believe I'm going to miss one of my favourite singer's concert as well :( And it's going to be JJ's first concert after 4 albums. He's a really talented composer with an incredible voice. So proud of him. Anyway here's a really funny clip of wu zong xian and him showcasing his work and voice. Mm weirdly enough, it also made me feel that chinese lyrics can be really beautiful. The proper parts.



dunno why this video just can't seem to work. here's the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=68fOk6DwzMU

Submission Nightmare. OVER!

It truly will be an experience I'll never forget. The craziness in producing enough work, the panic attacks that seem so real and the limits that it really pushes you to. O's and A's are kindergarten maths next to this!

For two whole weeks, I have not been able to go to bed properly, I couldn't eat my meals for more than 5 minutes and sometimes I even forget to bathe or wash my hair for a day! (even when I went out to watch the play -_-) Not to mention the panic you start to feel 1 week prior to all these drama. Perhaps only an archi student will fully understand this tormenting struggle. But just in case there's anyone who wanna pursue this, be prepared to work incredibly hard. Sad to say, I didn't exactly work hard enough to excel and this is definitely something you can't cram in last minute. It's still a really noble profession and anyone who has the passion should go for it. I have a great amount of respect for my friends who continue in this line and all who could produce such gorgeous models and drawings fast like a pro. Saw a budding norman foster in my studio and realise maybe some people are made for this stuff. Or maybe I'm just making excuse for my lack of hard work. But whatever it is, it's just too tiring..... Adieous, no matter what the outcome is, this period of my life is O.V.E.R.

One thing though, it's interesting how a course can gather so many similar people together... I will never forget the many witty and colourful personalities I've met in my year... everyone seems so good at smoking about 有的没的 that it was really fun at times. We're probably too childish for all these anymore but I'll never forget how a silly kungpao video can make our day. =)
