AHHHH!!! IT'S FINALLY OVER!!! impj is finally over.. or rather almost. today's the second last day and tmr's left with the presentation so unofficially, it's over. officially? it's not yet but i don't really give a damn. no more long nights without sleep trying to finish graphics, no more stuck in the freezing cold mac lab with constant staring at the com with dry eyes, no more.. alot of other stuff.. cause the holiday's are finallly here!! although its just five short weeks of break, im gonna make full use of it and i even got all the stuff i wanna do all planned out nicely. i'm gonna sleep till i grow mold for the first week. second week will be the week where i play till i drop dead, week three is for catching up on sleep again and yeah.. u probably get the drift. i'll probably dig out some time to get a tan and do some decent shopping. so yeah. its also the time when i go broke with all that buying. anyway, first item on my list: a jigsaw puzzle. don't ask me why, just had the sudden urge to make something with my own hands. anyway, went to print the poster today and unfortunately, karen has to make another trip tmr cause the two of us are so broke we could only afford to print the two posters. after drawing tmr then go print again. so waste time.. sigh but what to do? no money, no payment by nets so that's the sacrifice we have to make. lose sleep just to print stuff... im just really excited cause impj's almost over and after that im going for a chalet!!! nette's birthday chalet. so yeah.. time to cut some slack pple.. cause before you know it's over!!! rejoice! throw confetti! drink champaign! do everything and anything that gets you high and alive.. okie whatever.. im starting with my crap so yeah. i'm hitting the sack..

today was a total disaster. presentation was a disaster. our veggie growing thing was basically screwed by the lecturers and so there's only one word to say this: REDO! yes im not kidding. they didnt actually tell us to redo but yeah, that was pretty much what we decided to do after thinking about our concept and questioning our graphics. the main concept is there but the graphics are going under a MAJOR revamp or rather redoing. whatever you call it. so our spirits were not exactly what you would call high after the whole presentation. more like disappointed and demoralised and upset at the teachers for not telling us earlier when they approved our concept and alot of other words that i can't think of right now.so im having a self- declared holiday tomorrow to stay home and work on my part of the graphics and hopefully can finish it asap so elaine can work on the director. sigh... one and a half weeks of hard work gone down the drain but the only consolation is that we're not the only group that got slammed. so yeah. long day today, even longer day tomorrow. its really hard to concentrate right now cause there's the kumar's on tv now and it a comedy. so yeah..

studio project's finally here... not that i'm absolutely looking forward to it.. in fact, i dread it. i'll probably be out of my mind to say that i was looking forward to this. but well, it's here and there's nothing i can do about it. here's the bit 'bout what we have to do: the future 2050 in other words how singapore would be like in the year 2050 (how the hell would i know?!?!) so as part of our 'research'or whatever you call it, we got to watch minority report cause its probably the only show that shows the future in the year 2056 or was it 2054? heck.so far, we've probably wrecked our brains on god knows how many different concepts all to be rejected by the teachers, done more that two flowcharts, come up with two different types of navigation for our interactive site, did alot of mock ups, had a presentation by which they rejected our storyboards, and redid storyboards again and again until today when they finally pitied us and gave us the nod that we've been longing to see for days. and guess what? its only the third day.... sigh... twelve more llooooonnnnggggg days to go before the end of this living hell and enough of us being cooped up in the same place everyday for more than 8 hours.im just using this as a site of my complains.. but who am i to say.. everyone out there whose in the design fac under this dreaded dmd course is probably going through this as well.. so yeah.. hmm.. anyway, one thing to look forward to is the hols which are coming soon and before you know it, it'll be here.. oh anyway, guess where in the world ottawa is? siti asked me this question and i gave a very definate answer, an answer that i was so sure of and it was wrong.. so keep guessing people.. its somewhere where you least except it to be. =)

I WANT TO COMPLAIN!!!!! a certain individual in design school has been going around making lives a living hell for students.. students who were once happy, carefree, simple minded people with no worries, students like me... and now, because of this... this.... ahem, we have to live in constant viligence and worry as to when he might just feel like turning up for no rhyme or reason and spoil our day, like today.he might just walk into class and walk around looking for smthg.. once he spots a poor little victim, he'll stroll over like some ass of a head and tell that poor thing to get out! growl.. so now, we, the poor victims who were once happy with not a worry in the world (okie.. not world lah.. but maybe in attire wise) have to be on constant guard and once he is spotted, we have to drop whatever we were doing and haul butt.one good example would be today, when he walked in and told my friend to get out cause she was wearing slippers..yes. he chased her out of class cause she was wearing a piece of rubber under her foot without a strap! and that was not all... he made us go borrow shoes or sandals from godknowswho if not we had to leave.. get a life man... he is a walking example of 'lock- kok- ness' himself lah! and he didn't just do that once, we were unfortunate enough to meet him about twice in just one day and he got us in a very foul mood... foul enough to make me want to throw my slipper at him to wipe that smirk off his face..okie.. after reading what i've just written, i guess im still rather pissed at what happened today.. maybe cause i haven't really been sleeping, which probably explains why i'm still so sore over what happened today. well, tomorrow is the last day of school ( self- proclaimed) and we're having an excursion we're going to the science center; according to the teacher, it's probably gonna help in our impj. anyway, long day tomorrow, but can't sleep yet... one last assignment before i drop dead on thurs...

okie.. just to let you people out there know that i'm not dead.. just don't really have the time to blog these few days.. well the main reason is probably that my life has come to a standstill recently, and there's really nothing much worth mentioning. just the usual stuff.. bogged down by tonnes of assignments and shit. well now in this point of time.. i've probably cleared most of them. just left with web which has us working in pairs ( that's the good part) to do a website using flash ( that's the bad part if you know crap about using the damn programme). As for imm, the tofu shit, i'm almost done.. just left with the main page which is good i guess.. but then again.. there's the damn guid test that i'm dreading and probably have no time to study for and will probably just flunk it and see eric next year. ( i SERIOUSLY hope not)i'm just bored and do not (as much as my brain tells me to) want to start on the web IKEA shit. the consequence to that will probably just mean that i will have to endure the next few days without sleep and try to get the damn thing finished by wed.anyway, i was watching the news yesterday and another pair of sisters ran away from home. why is the whole world running away from home? is it like some like of trend nowadays? or is it just the sheer thrill of making your parents worry like hell and start blaming themselves for not being good parents that makes these kids want to run away? the answer as to why they ran away from home or rather played a stupid game of 'missing' was that they were afrain that they would get scolded... hmph yeah right! and when the reporter asked them where they went? 'go somewhere slack lor.' how nice... just as your parents were worried sick about you, you are sitting somewhere enjoying yourself... how filial.. okie.. enough rambling.. enough complaining but if my kid was like that, i slap the kid upside down, left and right man... im tired and where the hell those kids went is none of my business so.. whatever... =Doh before i forget.. HAPPY TEACHERS DAY to all the aspiring teachers, teachers, tuition teachers and whatever other teachers out there!!! really wanted to go back to ij but unfortunately, lesson calls so yeah... no mass.. no ij.. *sob
