Yo peeps... RAWWWRRR.... (sCREAMS AND GROWLS..)
I'm like a walking zombie now... garrh NO.
I HATE ZOMBIES.
In any case.. yes... total LACK OF SLEEP.
Damn this is still the freaking second week of school only... 2ND WEEK ONLY?!!
this is hell...
Stayed back in school from 6 plus till 9pm to work on the 3d model. Stayed with Keith and Pamela while Mehk and Fatimah did the models oustide the studio. Then went home, slacked till 11pm (only abt 15 min of break, reached home abt 10.40-10.45) and then worked on the model till 1 plus until i FELL ASLEEP (DARN IT!).
Woke up instantly at 7am and worked on the model again till abt 10am... then went to sch... reached abt 11.15 and worked on the model till 2pm ... YES by then i was FINALLY DONE. :D
Let's calculate... 3 + 2 + 3 + 3.... That's like 11 hours of work man.. WTH.
That wasn't all.
We had 2 more assignments to work on and to be due later on! Darn that's why i'm still awake now. Curses and Curses... that's just so much work.
I tell you i will sleep like the whole of Friday to catch up with my sleep man...
In any case let's move on to random thoughts and answers..
Well... life's changed ever since POLY began.
Basketball's no longer a part of me. dARN.
Romance? Nah, NO TIME LUH! T.T
Just work work work and work.
However, i've made new friends and my class seems to be pretty fun :)
Hopefully this class grows closer and everyone can just clique together.
Still it feels weird that things aren't no longer the same.
More responsibility, no more spoon-feeding.
More work, no more time for slacking and playing.
Just ain't the same when you can hardly find time to even meet up with old pals or anything.
It just feels weird.
Miami Heat is going up against Atlanta Hawks later on during 8am (USA 8pm).
Although i can't watch.. i hope Heat can turn this around. Go Heat! Fight back and win in their home court!!
Okay, not time to sleep but time to do more work.
Ciao people!
Thursday, April 30, 2009 @ 1 MORE DAY TILL BREAK...!!!
Monday, April 27, 2009 @ Tired oh tired.
Hello people.
Well yeah.. I'm tired.
Seems like Poly ain't so slack after all.
JC people are tired... so are poly people.
Okay.. well.. actually i guess its just the Design School peeps who are feeling a little more stress than the others.
We don't have tests or exams, now thats the good thing.
But our homework are pretty hard to handle.
Let's say we need to do researches on singapore culture and stuff.. Well, that's already a tough one. How to even start.. that's 1 problem already..
Next we've got formExploration. Yup it sounds simple, just sketching and sketching.
But when it comes to model making... WHOA it's not as easy as you think.
Most of us, IAD (Interior Architecture and Design) students actually spent up to half a day just trying to work on a A4 size model. The most even up till 18 hours.
Wow you must say. WOW.
Yeah, very tired.
I've still got a assignment for History and Culture lesson.
AND to make another model by wednesday.
Haiz, it's really tiring.
On the other hand. Haha, bad news for me.
Think i may just lose basketball :X
i hardly have time to play during weekends. Nor will i stand any chance to get in the team, definitely.
Well, i do have the time to play.. but if you think of it, the more correct thing to do would be using the time to work on your assignments rather than playing.
We have no tests, all we depend on are our daily assignments.
So the key to doing well in Design School is to stay focus, put in your best for every work you are given.
Oh well... can't be helped right.
In any case, Currently Miami Heat is leading the series 2-1 against Atlanta Hawks... WAY TO GO!!!
CHIONG CHIONG CHIONG!
Miami's supporting cast is definitely growing stronger as Wade can depend on them more now.
Beat the HAWKS in the following 2 games! GO GO GO!
Okay, i gotta go do some work already. Tomorrow going to National Museum. Ciao people :)

Friday, April 24, 2009 @ Work and Play
Yo peeps.
It's been a damn long while since i blogged.
Been very busy with school work.. can u imagine.. only the 1st week of school and i'm already busy with school work.
So far, just within 4 days, i've already done up about 12-13 or more pages of sketches and design.
Okay, maybe lesser, but crazy man. that's all done in just 4 days.
that just shows how much work we have to do EVEN IF it's just designing.
Imagine u have to transform a complicated 2D picture into a 3D and come up with variations... man i tell you your brain cells will all die man.. seriously.
I will blog about Camp X some other time.
On the other hand, i've already signed up for basketball and the trial should be coming soon.
To say the truth... I'm all ready to face the ugly fact that i won't be selected.
I have no experience. I have some issues with my basics.
Worst of all, i have to go against other Freshmen to fight for the right to be on the Champion team.
Yes, you heard me. Temasek Poly is the Champion team of the POLY/ITE Competition.
Of course i will still give it my best even if i wont be selected.
No regrets right.
Within just this short period of about 3 months of casual playing.
I've improved so much. I'm not proud or boasting but i really really have improved tremendously even if it isn't enough.
I used to be a totally hopeless shooter.
Now what do i get... I get compliments that my strokes are nice. (Meaning the way my hands release the ball.)
I'm a pretty reliable shooter as of now. When i get the stroke and open space, i can keep getting them through the net.
I used to be unable to do a proper layup.
Now i'm getting better at my lay-ups (But of course still not good enough)
I'm able to react at times to dodge hands and lay the ball in.
I used to be a chiongster.
All i knew was to get the ball, hit and hit and hit.
Now i look before i even move.
Look for open space. Look for opportunities. Look for high-percentage shots.
Most importantly, TIMING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT.
Yes, now we know basketball isn't all physical. Mentality and thinking works in the game.
Of course i have so much more to work on.
Lay-ups, rebounds, passing, dribbling, defense, timing, stamina, hustle play. Most of all, to remain calm and dare to challenge others and learn from them. ( i shall not reveal too much)
Let's just do my best for the upcoming trial.
All the best to Miami HEAT for 2009 playoffs!
Tomorrow's the human wheelbarrow challenge by the way... Go go design!!
Ciao!
Sunday, April 19, 2009 @ Here We Start Anew!
Yo peeps!
Haven't really been blogging.
But i will do up a REALLLLLLL lenghty one soon.. about Design Orientation Camp 2009 (DOC) aka. Camp X!
That's when i get my hands on the photos.
The camp was freaking fun and made new friends too.
Okay, shan't say too much.
Tomorrow will be the first day of school!
Here we start anew!
Ciao people :)

Wednesday, April 8, 2009 @ The ugly side
Hey peeps.
Nothing much to talk about. Except that i saw a scene while i was playing basketball near my house area.
How to describe it...
Ugly
Unglamorous
Most of all, i was disgusted and ashamed.
No, not people making out la... jokes aside.
I saw a married couple having some sort of a dispute.
It got really ugly when the man was hurting the wife physically.
He slapped and dragged her along the floor.
I had no idea what the dispute was about but even so, how can a man get so FUCKING PHYSICAL?! Especially to a woman!
All i saw was the wife being helpless, pleading the husband about something and he was swearing and dragging the wife because she was kneeling down the whole time.
For that... i feel disgusted. The ugly side of people.
Disputes can be resolved using peaceful methods, not so physical right?
Most of all, how can a man ever be so physical towards a woman.. that's unacceptable.
There were many others watching by the corners and side.
For that i really do feel ashamed. Not only because of them but also because of myself.
All i could do was to watch.
I had thoughts of going up to that man and just wanting to stop the fight.
But i couldn't do it. I was thinking, that if i were to step in, the husband who was already going very violent would even whack me.
Furthermore, he had gold hair and could possibly be linked to a gang or some sort. Eventually he could get people to whack me.
Yes, i sound like a coward and a loser. I agree. For that, I am ashamed of myself..
I couldn't do a thing even though the ugly sight was just right before my eyes..
The worst was that after the husband left the wife alone, i didn't even step up to see if she was alright. A group of girls went up to her to check on her.
Fuck.. Why didn't i even do such a simple thing..
Damn.
Maybe i shouldn't be saying so much because it had nothing to do with me.
But i just want to voice out that at times like this, maybe someone, or all of us should at least feel concerned.
We are all human beings, we can't just stand by the side and watch others being hurt.
Not saying that someone should be a hero, but at least, when the situation cools, we can all lend a helping hand and see if the victim need anything.
For that, i learnt a lesson today.
I am ashamed that i didn't do the least that i could have done.
I learn the importance of care and concern..
That's all... Ciao.

Friday, April 3, 2009 @ Almost there.
Yo Peeps, how's life.
Haven't been blogging lately. Haha, nobody tags either T.T
Nah nevermind, who cares either.
In any case, orientation camp in 9 days time.
So it means i have a week left to do whatever i can for basketball.
And so i roughly lay out a plan for this coming week already. Just plain and simple.
Here goes.
Monday: Play ball, evening onwards do some fitness training and then jog for an hour.
Tuesday: Play ball, fitness training and then an hour of jogging.
Wednesday: Working (Last day for the time being), fitness training and then jog for an hour.
Thursday: Play ball, fitness training and an hour of jogging.
Friday: Play ball, fitness training and an hour of jogging.
Saturday: PLAY BALL!!!
Sunday: Play ball and an hour of jogging.
Walah! About the same everyday la. It's like last minute work. Haiz...
Whatever it is, i will just give it a shot. Never say die until you try...!
I miss school life though.
Secondary school i mean.
Carefree and well... pretty plain and simple.
Though studies can be stressful, at least all you ever need to do is to study.
It's different when you grow up.
You have so much more things to think about.
All because now you have to be more responsible for your own life, more independent.
Haiz.... I wanna go back T.T
