Saw a rainbow yon friday, made a wish that i can get into design orientation camp's GL! Will go for the interview next week.
I realised that when my mum unlocks the car it'll cast this pretty light thingy on the wall.
I know i've not been blogging for some time.. that's because nothing eventful happened, no nice photos to post =/
Okay let's see, in the previous weeks i had programmers meeting, played pool, sold my first item on my blogshop, watched My Sister's Keeper at library on Shaun's laptop, watched Astro Boy with mum. My Sister's Keeper was touching, but i didn't cry, surprisingly. Astro Boy was okay not bad, but not awesome i guess. Played Icy Tower and other FB games with Madeline during marketing lessons which are damn slack :D Got A for the first marketing assignment which is quite unbelievable. For the first time i handed in assignments on time (because there's nothing much to do for marketing, just some reports). Realised Mei Sin (marketing lecturer) is really nice actually, it's just that she was bitchy on the first day HAHA. She's cute too, like once when i was sitting on the floor and did a stretch with my head tilted, she looked at me, tilted her head the same direction and smiled! Lols. And she lets us have half hour tea breaks, lets us have group discussions and walks around monitoring our progress. Best thing is, i've only this module and it's damn slack, i get to sleep till around 10am on average (Y)
Ytd, i went swimming with mum in the morning. Got a little sun burnt :D Not obvious in the above pic though. Then watched New Moon YIPEEEE! It's actually not officially released yet but they had this advanced sales thingy and i tried to see whether there's good seats online, and there was! I think it started showing already, go watch! 2012's cinema seats are ALWAYS fully occupied whyyyyy x.x
SO, New Moon was awesomeeee :D Actually i'm not very sure too, because i've already read the story, might be emotionally swayed. But it's definitely better than Twilight. And the main reason why i love it is due to the appearance of Jacob. HE IS SIZZLING HOT. (Not with the long hair of course) And i love his voiceee. I've always preferred Jacob to Edward throughout the whole saga heh. He doesn't look as good in photos but looks much better in the movie. I can't believe Taylor Lautner is born in the same year as me, 17 too and just 17 days older @.@ I won't mind watching New Moon again just to watch him. Really. Ahhh Eclipse quick come out! My mum was so excited about the show that she went popular to look for the whole set of Twilight saga LOL. But she prefers to read chinese cause she'll read slower in english, and the chinese version doesn't have a whole set tgt so she bought twilight first.
*Sizzle*
New Moon's trailer featuring Jacob.
I like it when he hugs Bella at 1:17. In the movie she was like couldn't bear to let go of his body after the hug lol.
Randoms.
This is the Twilight spoof, damn hilarious!
New Moon spoof adapted from the official trailer, damn LOL also.
And i like this song recently. Ending song of Hotshot.
Last week was rather hectic x.x Was rushing book illustration, and writing a story for creative writing. And the book illustration assignment was a huge investment luh! For that i bought watercolour pencils, $15, spray mount (to stick the pages), $15, printing on harder paper, $12+, print wrong have to reprint, $++.
Click each image to view each page clearly. If you're lazy to click one by one and don't mind the images being smaller, click here to view a slideshow of the pages of my book.
But anyway, the book was quite successful after a failed attempt :) I handed in late so 50% of the marks gone x.x Many friends were impressed though :D Heh. I handed in the creative assignment late too =/
Last night i showed my mum the book i made. (in cantonese) Me: See, i made this book. Mum: (didn't hear properly) Huh? When did you buy this book? Me: No luh! I MADE it myself! Mum: O.O omg how did you make it?! Me: That was what i've been painting about luh. Mum: Ohh, WOWWW SO NICEEE! Very nice! My baby so clever! Me: (happy only) ;D
An awesome piece of news: I GOT INTO PROGRAMMER :DDD They called me the night before the date of release of results, was like hopping around ;D Then i told Shaun and waited for him to tell me good news too. But he didn't get the call the whole night, and the next day, and was depressed. I was sian also. He gave up hope at night, and then suddenly got informed that he got in, at 12.40am! Whoooooots :D Scare us only.
So we'll have programmer meetings every friday till next year FO. Met Shaun and Nianqi on friday before going for the meeting at 7.30, and played pool while waiting. Thanks for the TP badges!
During the programmers meeting, realised 1/3 of us are from rinku! :D But i think they separate us purposely for the planning of station games :( We gotta discuss and plan the games, and send in the drafts by wed. =/
Rushed to causeway point to celebrate laogong/laopo's birthday. Clique and Ed were eating sakae buffet before i arrived. I'm so sorry i could only make it sooo late :( By the time i reached, it was around 10pm already and the shopping mall was closing. Luckily Breadtalk was still open, so i bought the cake and surprised her outside the mall. We sat outside and celebrated, had fun :) Happy birthday laogong/laopo! Love you ♥ :D
The only module i'm taking now is Marketing for Designers, boring subject. For the first half hour of the lecturer's intro talk, my eyes were struggling to stay open @.@ And, the lecturer's a woman who's about 50 years old. I don't like her. She isn't the motherly kind, she's more like a step mother =/ She's so strict too, not like the younger, more casual more lenient lecturers that teach design/art stuff. Maybe because this subject is more business-like. Timetable now's 3pm-6pm everyday, only one module = more relaxing. Can wake up later too :DDDDDDDDD But i can't wait to get this module over and done with.
Mum's going germany for a week tmr which means home alone again. I'm worried about cockroaches x.x
Wish upon the rainbow
Saturday, November 7
Hello! :D Been busy with assignments. Here's one, packaging design. I did on Meiji Milk Chocolate.
Now for applied illustration, we're to illustrate a book of at least 8 pages. Gotta complete by next wed, and I'M FREEEEEE :D
Testing colours.
For creative writing, i've been enjoying it as usual :) Now we're covering plot structure, stories. Once, we're to interview a partner, and ask questions about what happens in the partner's dreams. The partner is to come up with any random funny absurd stuffs, so it was really fun :D Then Paul randomly selected a few to read out the partner's dreams, and we laughed much as usual. Same for another exercise too, when a group of us were given random characters, places, situations, and had to create a story with those. Once, Paul let us watch a movie, The Usual Suspects :D For us to analyze the plot structure. Then another day Paul brought books of re-written fairytales. Like how the big bad wolf was actually an innocent wolf who just wanted to borrow sugar from the 3 pig neighbours, and he had a bad flu so he kept sneezing and sneezed their houses down. He let us read some Just-so stories too.
These exercises were meant to show us how to do our next assignment, which is to write a fairytale with a twist in the story.
Optical fibre i think.
Oh and on monday, i wore a bright neon yellow jacket to school, which sparked much controversy LOL. I bought it online and thought it was lime green, didn't expect it to be more to the yellow side. And, i wore it to school because i thought it wasn't so bright, since it looked okay at home that morning. =/ Attracted a lot of attention in school lol. But it's okay in design school. Didn't wanna take off cause it was really colddd. But at least Shaun and Yongzheng and maybe Amber said it was nice ;D Anyway, i don't wanna wear it out anymore! So paiseh. Pictures of it:
Went for FO(freshmen orientation camp)'s programmer interview with Shaun on wed. We really hope we'll get in. I was scared to go for interview at first, but i thought to myself: FO's the most happening event in TP, so much fun, i should give it ago. If i get in it'll be awesome, if i can't at least i've tried and have no regrets. Anyway a programmer is to plan and execute games during the next FO for the freshies. I'm not super interested in planning games but i'd love to be in the camp because it's just so fun.
Saw a longgg rainbow that morning :D It sort of gave me hope about getting into FO.
Click to read the comic i drew :) I can't draw humans for nuts. Got my inspiration from the day i went for the iCool event. While going home, i thought it was weird to bring my balloon up the bus. So i went mushroom and released the balloon, and watched it fly up to the sky :D It's a really nice feeling.
Went to watch Waves 14 dance concert at SP on friday with darl, laogong/laopo and ed, to support dearie! The performance was awesome :D All your hardwork had paid off dearie! Poor thing having to rehearse till 10pm like everyday, and getting so many bruises all over! D: Rest well after this kay! Well done girl :)
After that, went back northpoint to eat. Only agreed to eat at Xin Wang Hong Kong Kitchen because it was already 11+pm, it opens 24hrs, we were hungry, and laogong/laopo didn't wanna eat mac =/ I ate there before and the food sucked. This time i was giving it a second chance. The teh peng was not bad. BUT THE FOOD SUCKED LIKE @#$@*&^%. Ordered ham & egg spaghetti. Spaghetti bolognese sauce too sweet. Ham like taken from some tin can. Egg's a sunny-side up, not very nice. Best thing on the plate was the piece of raw cucumber. So we all agreed that the signature dish in Xin Wang is cucumber LOL. I finished most of it though, don't wanna waste and hungry. And the sucky meal cost around $13! Sucky food for such a price, wthell. Amazingly, that restaurant always seem to have good business, i seriously wonder why.
Anyway we still had a great time making fun of the restaurant and talking about Hui Ci (the one on jacky gogogo who always goes "ohmyGOD~~!" LMAO. Kept imitating her ;D
Recently, the weather has been cold, i like! Cause can wear jackets and scarves :D & btw Shi ting bought one of the NUM bags from me! :D Thanks girl! Now i've $100 more to spend :D
Design canteen's barley drink is love.
Shaun showed me this video of Super Junior imitating SNSD's Gee. DAMN HILARIOUS TTM!
This is the original mv, i think the dance is really nice.
