3.2.10
look! an update!
emil must be delighted to see a brand new entry here. no more complains k?

right, so i'm two months behind since my last post. Happy 2010 dear earthlings. although, there are not much that i'm looking forward to.. and yet i'm not being pessimistic about things either. just two more Saturdays and i'll turn a year older zzz but in a few days time and two weeks after that (but skip my birthday) there are things to be hyped about! first off there's Lydia's birthday to attend to. then there's work on CNY: hong bao + double pay! :D well, i can actually already foresee where my double pay will be channelled to (school fee and assignments.. nothing new..) but i really hope i'll have sufficient left for the Bali fund. i have to admit, as much as Dear, Radz and Rahim are super thrilled for the trip, i am not. well not really. idk. my excitement kind of comes and goes. mostly, it goes. but as of now, it's coming back. haha. wth. i guess i have too many things in my mind. i can be such a sickening worry-wart.

let's see now, what shall i talk about next. oh yeah, i headed back to TP the other day! :D my girls were still as awesome as ever, Pe'ah did look rather worn out.. kerje keras, ye kak? nevermind, you'll see the fruit of your labour when you graduate later. same goes to the rest of you girls k. well the boys too, haha. TP was super windy that day. has it always been that windy there? anyway, hung out with Has, Shida and Sideq for the rest of the afternoon.. fatin and Pe'ah had to go off for their CDS, so.. didn't get to do much catc-ups with them. next time k gees. so we chit-chatted, lunched at Design school coz it's inexpensive and has a killer sambal belacan and witnessed this ang moh dude snag two cans of drinks from a vending machine in just one transaction. (Y) when we had to part at around 4, due to them having to go for their CDS, i almost forgot how to take the bus back to Tampines interchange. hurhur. of course the dearest Hasni showed the way.. so i made a move to my current school since i had class that day and in the long run, i received sweet texts from Fatin and Pe'ah.. hehe. yes girls, we'll catch-up next time.. :)

Dear and i had been spending a lot of time together. well not 24/7, but it had always been just the two of us hanging out almost everytime we go out nowadays, "friends-less", in a way. last week i think, we ventured to Punggol end, Punggol beach, photo-taking.. and i want more of that. we even came up with the "Andrew Zimmern Project" which we have yet to start on. i hope we can do that in Bali if we can't find the time to do it here. to Dear: if you think i am "all talk no action", try me. just dare me and i'll do it! haha. i got guts hor. i think. :\

school has been fabtastic so far. previous module on Editorial Design definitely has to be my fave. we had to do a magazine on whatever "genre" it may be and mine's on the local music, art and design scene. it sounds serious now but i'm proud of the whole execution of it. although it's not entirely flawless, it's still my baby. haha. i am very certain now that i'm heading towards the design for the editorial/publishing industry. i got lobang, so i hope it'll work out.


apart from that, i might have a chance to go to Year 2, advertising. i mean i only signed up for Year 1 coz i know i can't financially afford to go to Year 2. but my lecturers Anthon and Michelle are helping me out, so i'm definitely pinning my hope on that too.

and currently, i'm doing my Major Project. this will be the very last module (i am so tempted to say the "season finale" hahaha) before i officially grad from Year 1. last week's briefing regarding the Major Project was kind of scary, at the same time thrilling (in a good way), because there are so many things to think about! let alone doing proper research! wow. right now i'm starting to feel the magic brewing--and by that, i mean my enthusiasm to start working on it--simply because i'm almost confirmed with the topic that i'm gonna pick. so all the best Miss Belle. oh apparently, some of my classmates start calling me that. no thanks to Anthon ah who else.

the other day, i saw this story on tv. i forgot the title. but it was definitely an eye-opener. it made me feel angry, sympathetic, disgusted, more angry and want to help people. it kind of help change my perspective on things. but most importantly, it made me appreciate the people around me who deserves to be appreciated, so much much more. and this goes out to my dearest Azri because you are, thank God, the odd one out. the odd kind that i've always hoped you would be by nature. love you.
