END OF FIRST SEM!!!

The title says it all..



but before I begin--RIP MICHAEL JACKSON......







Today was the last day of semester one for my bachelor architecture course, and also the final presentation, which I think its one of the best design i've done so far compared to the first two which i hated it so much i tore it down the moment i went home. trust me, you have totally NO IDEA how much work we have, how many midnight oils we've burnt.....

but it is all worth it once we've done it well =D



Here's some pics of my model for today's presentation....

PRESENTATION BOARD


MODEL





overall it went well, but nobody had the time to take pictures of other ppl's model, probably nervous just because its a final presentation that costs 50% of final marks.

most of my classmates had panda eyes because they spent about 2-3 sleepless night finishing their work, portfolios and models but I think it was worth it as well for them.

So, after the whole damn presentation....13 of us went to watch Transformers,, and i got to say IT IS DAMN AWEEEEEESOME! MEGAN FOX IS DAMN BLOOOODY HOT!!!!! ok i may sound a bit lesbo here..but I had a friend CHUI NEE had a more extreme reaction that you definitely dont wanna know!

hmm well, overall my first sem was good. The best part is that I've made many many friends about 50-60 of them, which took me a while to remember all their names, can't even remember one or two now still =.= and had quite a number of good friends, and these were the friends that are always there to support u no matter wat shit happens, no matter how shitty u are, and no matter how heavy the work load is..so yeah, quite looking forward to the next sem, more work to come! sigh...

Model Making...

It's definitely one of the craziest thing I have ever done. If you think you've done the craziest thing, wait till u join architecture!

Haha! Firstly, we had to make models from the plan we have drawn. Thank god its a group work, could have died long time ago if it was individual. My group is an all-girl's group, consisting me, Hsien, Chui Nee, PingXin and Tzi Li, and we named our group "chocolate peanut butter waffles"...chui nee's idea =.= So our submission was today at 3pm, all we did during the weekend until tuesday was THIS model. We thought we could finish on Tuesday evening, BUT, we only manage to fnish at 5am! Which means I stayed at college until 5am! We walked out of the college at 5am! Just when we thought 5am is late, we realize its actaully very early! The coffee shop next door just opened to begin their business for the day, the birds start chirping. . . .

Ok so we divided ourselves to do different parts, I volunteered to do the railings.

this is the staircase railing, made of steel wire.
you think its easy?
you think is big?
I'll show u how big it is.


There.
So big right?
TOOK ME BLOODY 3 HOURS OK!

Thats not just it.

I did this as well.

10 OF THEM!
With Ping Xin's help on one of them..haha!



its only the size of my fingertips *sniff*
i lost count of how long it took me to do =D


Our site. Where we put our building on.
Is 30% of the whole project.



Our building.


Building on site.


I like this very much!



Credits to Hsien..she did most of the site.
And the site only cost us about less than RM10..or RM5 maybe =/
And.....
our lecturer Miss Goh likes it! VERY MUCH!

we also got comments from other group that our site is very "Alice-In-The-Wonderland-ish".
I agree also la...haha!

Here's some pics of my members

Tzi Li who's posing with her drawing for competition. OMG DAMN NICE RIGHT?


Carol, not our group member, but...
UHU GLUE AMBASSADOR.

there's too many pics to be uploaded, so i'll upload them on facebook.

Overall, i am very proud of our work. and i meant "very" means "VERY". hahaha!

yappy doo~

Its been a crazy week, and crazier ones are yet to come!

Firstly we had Culture & History model making project to submit today. We chose Wells Cathedral of Somerset. Ryan, Shee Ling and me only started at 2pm yesterday because we redo the whole damn thing, coz our previous work was a total disaster! And to our surprise, we manage to finish everything in one night..



Section was completed in 2.5 hours, plan in 12 hours, and elevation in 10 hours.
And the alphabets, dont underestimate them, took us about one hour or so =/
Tho i think we could have done way much better if we planned ahead properly, i think we did a satisfying job. Trust me, the work done by other members are BEYOND GODLIKE!

Just so u know Ryan and Shee Ling are lovebirds, therefore,i'm a lamppost, saya sebatang tiang lampu, 我是一个电灯泡.





Secondly, my model design is accepted! wee...



For those who dont know, its the concept and function that matters, not the aesthetic value...

THATS IT! I HAVE ENOUGH OF BALSA WOOD! but i've just gotten enough sleep =S


Thirdly, i got my com back which died 2 weeks ago. Now its like brand new and most importantly UPGRADED..

Fourthly, i have two submissions next week ON THE SAME DAY! gg.com
