I was sitting right in front of my laptop today when i start to think about a few things.

What am i doing after graduation?
What kind of work shall i pursue in the future?
-residential?
-commercial?
Am i going to continue this practice for the next 5years?
Whatever im doing now, is it useful for my future?
Do i want to continue taking a degree after this?

All this questions made me have a major headache out of a sudden. i don't know who to blame. i was so interested in ID during my sec sch days. me and my course mates really thought designing is decorating, which is choosing wallpaper, furniture, paint etc. BUT! we got cheated! its more than that. & one preconception, design is NOT decorating. ok?

i still have yet to learn about so much stuffs. need to get it together for the next few months. as i was typing this, i felt goosebumps about graduating in 4months time. a lot of sacrificing and effort to be done. pls pray that i will survive for the next 4months aite? thanx!

The only thing i am sure about, one day i want to be a lecturer in ID.

on a side note, the fishes are doing well now. im so happy to see them swimming around so freely. thank you all for the prayers! :D

but sadly, 12 fishes died after struggling to live. :'(

Quoted from Stylish Muslimah

When you realise that you should be adhering to the laws of hijab (and if you are a practising Muslimah, you will sooner or later, Insha'Allah), you can suddenly find a million questions and contradictions to prevent you from wearing it and we all know who that's from.. If you are currently in this predicament, then this video that I found on you tube might make things seem simpler, afterall the concept of hijab is a very simple one but it's choosing to follow it that's the hurdle:



something that i myself am still learning.

Make up is not my thing, i know. but somehow somewhat, i want to learn about it. but i don't know where or how to. i kind of envy people who get their make up so perfect all the time. never smudge or fade. & they did not even learn it anywhere! so cool rite?

so what i did today(the day before my crit) was to try on some make up not on myself! but in my sister! hahaha. pls don't laugh. im still learning.

I have the whole day to myself and i just decide to blog at 5.24pm.

Submission is super duper over!!am so happy that phase one is over. but wait, the torturing continues as crit week has officially started on Monday. i have always been scared of crit session. its the most stress thing to do as i have to get my ideas across. & some more, i have to explain it to about 3-5 lecturers whom have no idea what am i doing for this project.

For the past few days, i've pushed myself to have a complete submission as i do not want to feel guilty after that. and thank god, i've done it. now i can rest for a few days and its time for me to catch up on the module journals. (IM SO HATING INTECH!)

have i told u guys about us working our ass off on Saturday 7th Nov in school? yes! we were working on a saturday. happily using other course's studio with the permission of the lecturer.

One of the lecturers, Soo Yin is a very caring lecturer indeed. i did not expect us to get such good treatments from her. On friday night, she gave us chiffon cake. enough for approx 15-20pax. Saturday lunch, she treated us Macdonalds. On submission day which is on Monday, she gave us muffins for the whole year 3 students, approx 60 paxl. we never had such a caring lecturer for the past 2years.

then the problem comes when we have to replace one of the tables on the studio we used on sat cos of scratches made by some unknown ppl. bought a new one yesterday and hopefully its all settled.

dad bought 12 more fishes earlier this morning. different colurs from the same group of family. may i add that Banana died cruelly a few days before and dad bought a new one to replace it. Now i have Pyramid and Berry. im so loving the fishes can!! so colourful!

i am thinking of getting a new phone. this current phone colour is ripping off and look very ugly from the back! sis asked me to get an iphone if i like to play games but i don't. maybe brother will like it. besides, Starhub now sells iphones! but i was thinking if the price different with blackberry is not too much, might as well i get bb right? am still considering though.

i so want to go ION again to really look at the place. want to follow?

i din realize how much my brother have grown.

taken in 2006 when he's 4years old. now he is 7.

What i have up to recently?

Wake up at 6am, reach school at 8am, do models for 4 days and ongoing research and sketches.


the outcome after all this?

Model - Sorrounding of Geylang River


Model - My Urban Intervention (initial idea)


the current things i cant live without now. i love both of you! :D


Dad bought a few more fishes!! Mine is Pyramid. Gill, Gill2, Rainbow, Apple, Man U, Blackburn, Lionious died individually for the past 2weeks. Now we have Chelsea, Kait Lin, Pyramid and a few more which we have yet to name. Fish watching is my way of relieving stress. :D

I'll come up with a really long update ok.

This week was better than the previous. Starting to get a feel of the new project and managed to find the three sites after countless tutorials. I come to think that i always go for tutorial for this project. Not like the previous ones where i just hate tutorial. Maybe because i can no longer ask Hazirah or Pat about it. I'm all alone in this project. (not that i don't have other friends)

Nana have been a great help in school. Keep pushing me to go site when sometimes i don't bother to but actually its good to revisit those sites to get a feel of things. So, I'm going again tonight with her!

So far, this project has been rather tiring. drawing the same maps all over again. i don't know how some people can complete their sketches and maps very fast. Compiling journal is something that i hate as i know mine will not be thick. People who knows me will know that i hate researching as I'm not good at it.

The upcoming A1 model is such a waste of materials and money! i had to go down to Art Friend tomorrow to buy the necessary stuffs. i have to build the Geylang River and the buildings around it with trees! if it turns out pretty, i might just put the photos here. but pls don't keep ur hopes too high.

Sometimes i managed my time so much that i forgot to put in a few details. I think I'm living a denial life. i like to deny the fact that I'm always panic and feeling kanchiong! but who won't if there's like a lot of things to do in one day right? maybe i exaggerate a bit. :P

I've not spend online for the past 2 weeks. Major yeayness! Which means school's really making me busy! not that i favour school than shopping but at least it allows me to control. i don't want to be a shopaholic for goodness sake la! basic needs are necessary so i cant leave them out. now i have to spend for the A1 timber model. great!

The fish tank is keeping us busy. Every morning, Mum and Dad will check them, feed them, and put in the necessary liquid in it. I've google about the fishes and told my parents to check on the fishes for sickness. we don't want them to be sick. I tend to look at it before i go to school like some kind of pet thingy. Now, we prefer watching the fish grow than watching the tv.

Will have to do my checklist for my model shopping list for tmr's visit to Art Friend. Luckily dad agreed to help me! but im thinking, how on earth will i bring it to school??

WAIT! i just remembered! i have 4 days left to the submission date! models not yet done! design proposal not yet there! im so dead or what! If i have to stay late in school, i will. trust me. that's what i did for the first 3rd year project.

Our first ever Fish Aquarium!!!!!



Something we can call our own! No more gogo gaga-ing over people's fishes. we got ours! btw, Optimus Prime & Bumblebee are just ways to get brother connected to it!


the fishes are specially picked by mum & dad. so pretty hor!!

Dad suggested that we buy our own fishes and shall be hold responsible on its well being. What fish should i buy then??? Any suggestion??

We have a major thing planned but not sure when to carry it out. I will definitely help once i graduate with a cert. Whats my next move? we shall wait and see.

for now, SCHOOL IS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!

My Saturday was spent with mum & my two younger siblings. Went off from house and headed to Compass Point (CP).

Showing off his bumblebee face tshirt.


The initial plan was to just get to Best Denki but we also ended up going other places too. Dad cant joined us today as he is working on a morning shift.

We also went to the library to borrow some books for brother. i just wish that brother will make the library his 2nd home. We were hungry by then so we went down to Banquet.



We had a mouthful of food to eat. so bloated after that. We managed to pack some finger food home.



After having our late-lunch-&-early-dinner-meal, we went off to Best Denki. they are having major sales. all prices are very affordable. very nice indeed.



Reached home at 7pm and i was already too tired to do work. but thank god im able to touch on abit. lots more to do tmr. wish me luck!

This week's update!

19th October 2009

First day of school. Found out which lecturer is in charge of what brief. & i got brief 2. which was quite frustrating at first, but i was so relieved knowing that i got a lecturer whom i am familiar with and have been tutoring me since Day 1 of year 3.

But the fact that they have to separate me from Pat & Hazirah is a torture. i can no longer talk to them about the project cos i got a different brief from both of them. & i sat down like a table away from them which i've yet to take photo of. im all alone in this project. :(

Went down to the China Heritage Centre in the afternoon at Chinatown. Lots of historical aspects and the way Chinese folks live their life in early 50s. The kind of house they live in was so much smaller than now. they were very strong indeed.



Had tutorial at the centre itself before i went home. it was a really tiring and disappointing day for me. i still hope for a better tomorrow.


20th October 2009

Had a lecture early in the morning before heading down to Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) near Tanjong Pagar Mrt Station. i was so amazed by their models. they built it with super duper details and intricate. i bet they are all patient people!



& lunch was bought by Hazirah (THANK YOU!). Sadly i had to miss out some lunch with them. the only lunch i had with them eh no with Pat, was on Monday. Hazirah? hmm, none this week!


21th October 2009

Did not come to school at all. Went to search for my potential sites at Robertson Quay (RQ) & Bishan Park (BP). it is my first time going to RQ and i went there alone. I am so proud of myself can??!!



In the afternoon, brought Jan along for the Bishan Park visit. I was so dissapointed when i saw there's not much water on the river. its looks more like a longkang canal.




22nd October 2009

Trip to Mint Museum of Toys. my second trip so its quite boring hearing the same information all over again. i should have just brought brother along. it would be an extra entertainment! Sadly, it is a school excursion i might say.

Went off after it ended. Took the train from Bugis to Jurong East as i had to go for another site in jrg. Pandan River along Toh Guan Rd. Not so scary afterall.



I regret taking 105 home. it was a cray 2hrs journey from jurong. my butt hurts to bits! 105 from school is such a NONO!!


23rd October 2009

2 lectures in the morning. Submission date out and im here blogging & not doing my work. great or what! Went to Kallang River and Geylang River with Nana & Sharon for phototaking. there's so much water here than at Bishan Park. i was so happy.


Kallang River


Geylang River

Dad fetched me home from Kallang Mrt and we had sup tulang for dinner. yummy!

See how tired i am this week?? there's more to come. :(

ps: Im feeling so guilty now. no more S. lets give 2weeks a try.
