Work in progress.

Expect to see a new layout in 3 weeks. If it's still the same after 3 weeks, then expect the same layout for at least another 5 months.

wow i almost forgot about this blog...

not that i have a new one. it's just that blogging isn't my thing( i've said this so many times heh).but then again, i'll post something once in a while ;)

so what's up the past 2 months? basically it's just assignments assignments and more assignments. yeah, the past 2 months was my 2nd trimester in MMU. ok so lets start teh story from the beginning of 2nd trimester.

beginning:

at first, i was happily enjoying the fact that there's only 3 subjects for this coming sem. i mean, there's 5 subjects for the 1st trimester, and i enjoyed it leisurely. no hassle, no busy times, ok, maybe i'm busy once a while, but still i'm free most of the time in 1st trimester. so there i am, eagerly waiting for this coming 2nd trimester. and that's when the nightmare begins. i check my schedule, and there's like abundance of 3~4hours straight class for a subject, and there's that friday class AGAIN! (only my group, group MC002, have friday classes in 1st trimester...damn) but amazingly on tuesday, there's only one class(2 hours lecture, which usually ends in 45minutes). cool.

so, while being down with friday classes, i started my 2nd trimester with my first lecture session, a two-long-hours of MDF0023(design fundamental) lecture, from 9am to 11pm. after that, a couple of hours break, and english tutorial starts. the english tutorial is 3hours long. what in the world do they teach that needs 3 hours for each tutorial session?? that's what i thought... and at the end of the day? they really do have nothing to teach for 3 hours, the first day tutorial ends in 20minutes -_- Ms. Ng (my english tutor), came in late, took our name and left. woohoo.

so the first day weren't so bad after all... hah! because there's no assignments...yet.


ok now lets skip a couple of days and get to the middle of the sem.

the first assignment that i hate : MDF0023 Color book. what's in it? a compilation of color types; the color wheel, analogous color etc etc. so what, you just need to color some papers and paste it inside the book eh? what's so hard about it? first of all, it's a money waster. those PENTEL poster colours... rm5 each, and i use like ALOT of bottles just to get the correct color. tips of the day: blue sucks. even when i used the color straight from the bottle, it looks freakingly ugly on paper. 2nd, it's a time waster. painting the same color over and over again... to get a perfect piece of paper, with no brush marks whatsoever... damn that was hard. and then there's the cutting and pasting part. choosing the best color amongst lots of colors is hard too. the cutting and pasting part took 4 days to complete. and the last 17hours to submission time was hell. now my room is messy as hell. pieces of colored paper everywhere. and my usual worn clothes are everywhere too to add the mess. enough about the color book. this assignment alone killed my intention of holding a brush ever again, not to mention of making another color book.

next up, the postcard design. well, this assignment didn't take much of my time actually. but the printing process do take my time. walking to streetmall to print the postard in 5R size, is kinda tiring, evenmore while i'm fasting. sigh, i want a driving license.

then there's another MDF0023 assignment, coloring a scenery in cyberia. not just the normal scenery, we are told to color it using oil pastels, and to potray the scenery in warm and cool colors. and on top of it, we have 3 hours to finish it. and about my painting, it's hideous. my first time using an oil pastel T_T... i'm so gonna get bad results for this 2nd sem.

MDF0023 final project is a pain too. but not as painful as the godly color book. a series of failures... i almost gave up -_- i officially hate brushes after 2nd trimester...

talking about bad results... my series of bad luck happened alot. In a normal MCC0023 (computer graphics) tutorial exercise, the photoshop application crashed, like 30seconds before the tutor came to my place to give marks. i missed the first listening test on english too, accidentally overslept. good thing the tutor is kind enough to give a re-test at the end of trimester. a friend of mine missed the re-test though cause he overslept again, i kinda pity him =\ (who asked him to be on invisible mode on yahoo messenger? i buzzed him before the test!)

now that the 2nd trimester is ending and while we're still in the raya mode, Selamat Hari Raya to all that are reading this. i know it's not alot though :P heh but who cares. and i gained weight...damn... getting fatter and fatter argh... now i'm 59kg. Exercise time!! it was just eat and sleep during puasa... so now time to get things on the right track.

exams are next week, and of course im gonna study, a day before the exam :D <-- procrastinator. Ok, enough writing for the day. just got back from my kampung and i'm kinda tired. so it's tv or bed for me. adios.

*wow this is kinda long, hurrah to me*
