Poor girl :( we left our bags on the seats and went to get our food at mos burger, amk, and i think they were probably watching us, cos they only took her bag - aman & i brought all our valuables but eliz only brought her cash :( those mean ppl. they'll have a taste of their own medicine one day!

12 months since
12 months since you might have thought me heartless but i really, shyly hid in puns you moved the mountains i dug a trench between and sat at the edge eyes a glint of hesitations of other motivations but sometimes they were on you i wonder if you even had a clue more than any looney tunes cartoon i have a million frames hang-time of which i spend keeping out discerning cranes to stop that fall (as hard as resisting in a shopping mall) and finally now find myself picking up pebbles wondering about the chance of a little squabble but your back sees only what i display on my outer racks isn't it sad i'm timid and wish to cling on like a weed.
and of cos :) finally. my 3d bike. i've yet to do the lighting, so it looks a little off when i render...not the nicest modelling ard, but i put so much time into this, i refuse to say i dislike it as much as it's filled with errors. HA.
i love his turbo-engine-butt
mooore baptism photos!
Wednesday, May 24, 2006 5:19 PM
moooorrre baptism photos! i just got it in my mail today :D when i was in the baptism pool! Pastor Debra is this tiny woman who's on the right of the photo. on the left is my cell leader, Rachel :)
............and in the end i went back to sch =_= cos aman told me there was a retest for the html test (i skipped tue's tutorial). so ba. i went back in the end. we had to do the periodic table. LOL. memories~ i cld vaguely hear Mr Murali nagging abt the reactivity series at the back of my head.
the test wasn't as hard as i imagined it to be, but to type out all the elements and the number of atoms sure took up lots of time and made me feel like a robot. i didn't manage to complete coloring the tables though :( i think i left out 4 colors. i hope she doesn't penalize me for that. oh ya! we're gonna learn cascading style sheets nx week! at last something new x) yay!
itchy eyes
9:37 AM
aaarrgh. my eyes are itchy. i don't know why. rarr. and testdrive doesn't feel like drawing anymore, and she's majoring in bio and linguistics for college (like wth? with the talent she got?!) and it's making me really sad :( no blog updates; no deviantart updates :( i'm a damn stalker :(
anyway, watched the da vinci code ytd. i still don't get all the hoo-ha over it. i mean, it's already classified fiction. and come on, to make the assumptions that Jesus is married with a family just because of a painting and some fictional 'facts' is really- lol -laughable. i wasn't offended at all (i tot i mite be slightly, at first) but, really. it isn't all that convincing. not more than my feelings & belief anyway.
but there are some really disgusting scenes in there *_* like how that pale dilated-pupils guy, Silas, whipped himself and put this spikey binding thing on his thigh to make himself bleed o_o''' like omg. he's not sharing Jesus' pain! he's a psycho, and a serious case at that. when he said with his dying breathe, "I am a ghost..." i was like, "Damn right, you are." He's soooo pale it's scary.
today i woke up at 7 to pass daniel my lanyard cos i didnt wanna go to sch for one hr of lecture, only to see a msg from perry that sunk my heart - pls call me as soon as you see this msg. urgent. like O_o GASP. did something go wrong with our timing reel?!!! so i called and wadever. problem solved although i haf this feeling it mite haf turned out to be an ugly timing reel. ha. the client had better say 'yes' to it. i'm so not drawing more panels till 9pm in sch.

feeling so super slack nowadays aft knowing 3d has been pushed back to nx week. xD gwahaha! i just refused to do work for the past 2 days =x so. erm. someone scare me? lol.
i forgot to blog abt something tat happened a few days ago. i washed a pear and begun eating it. then i saw a bite mark in the pear which i don't remember leaving. i grew suspicious. (with a younger bro and a grandma at home, you can nv be too sure). so i bit off all the bits ard it, then threw it away. i think i'm always like that. i don't know if i made that bite, refuse to face it, beat ard the bush, then throw the whole situation away. i'm always like that.
anyway, had the briefing for the Siggraph trip to NewYork ytd T_T like omg la. $3700?! i don't even dare ask my parents abt it. *_* guilty guilty... omg omg!!! where am i gonna get tat money? who wants to donate to poor me *_*?

checking up the weather in New York
Tuesday, May 16, 2006 9:03 PM
checking up the weather in New York
haha! whoever knew checking up on weather cld be so fun x) ! knowing that we're gonna haf the briefing abt the 2-week study trip to the US tml, perry, shi han, eliz, aman and I got so excited we decided we have to find out what the weather's like over there. so we loaded internet explorer, stumbled onto a few useless sites, and finally found ourselves on bbc.com. "Boston" we happily typed into the word search - to perry's uttter horror, the temperature there is 9 degrees. haha. then we realised we were on the wrong page - we were on Boston, UK. so we backtracked and loaded the US page only to find the lecturer coming in and asking us to scram. but we were determined to find out what's it like there now. so we stayed on till the page loaded - 22 degrees :)
:S it doesn't reall sound as amusing here, writtten in words, but the atmosphere there was so funny la, with perry screaming at shi han and all of us squatting around a small computer screen waiting for a page to load. haha x)
well, really good news today xD the 3d assg dateline is gonna be pushed to nx fri so ,yay! xD i'm just gonna ignore it for as long as i can and do my motion graphics. hurhur. :) thank u, kailiang, for your encouragement. i'll try my hardest at 3d T_T
(ooooo. i really hope my parents will let me go to new york *_* the only reason they wldn't want me to go will prob be the money. i heard it's $2500? T_T donation to me, anyone?)
maya takes my life away
Sunday, May 14, 2006 9:17 PM
maya is a very powerful software. so powerful it takes years off my life each time i use it .T_T. what can i say. 3d modelling is just so not my forte. i purposely made the image small cos they're ugly. hurhur x((
so so so. i give up. i'm not doing anymore maya today. i'm gonna get my motion graphics homework done...and leave the rest of my sane days for insane maya. T_T what makes some ppl so good at it? i really wonder.
i can't wait for drawing lesson tml. i wonder what new stuff Mr Brian is gonna show us ... and surely feeling the paper & getting your hands all dirty with charcoal is much better than caressing the monitor with a virtual mouse? blue pill or red pill? who decides which world the red pill brings you to?
cut hair xD !
10:01 AM
i'm gonna make this a super duper quick one cos i'm gonna go trim my hair! yay xD i woke up super duper early today (8am) so i cld do my work then go cut hair, and later go to church. ain't i hardworkin. muahaha. i plan well.
erm. yeap. so i went out with sq ytd to bugis to buy my mummy's day present. the real reason i wanted to go to bugis is because :p i wanted to buy my red with white polka-dot bag xD yay!!! and of cos, i bought it. butttt. the main motivation for goin out was still mummy's present. haha. i bought her 3 (there were only 3 different flavors) low-fat yoghurt bars aft much thought. haha. she was so happy when she saw it today, saying she's not gonna share it with anyone and she's gonna keep it to herself and include it in her low-fat diet plan.
x) i think it feels so sweet sometimes when ppl want to be selfish aft recieving your present. i hope everyone's selfish with my presents. *hehe. wad a bad thought :p Happy Mothers' Day, all you mummys out there :) daddys may be the head of the house, but mummys are the heart of the home. suumauhx~
OH DEAR.
Wednesday, May 10, 2006 10:06 PM
OH DEAR. i have to warn lazy bums like me out there! i just visited the sdn forum to post up my screen cap of my humble 3d bike parts and like omg la. o_o ppl have completed theirs already?!!! (and their vehicles are tons prettier than mine T_T) there are more than a few perrys out there!!! omg. T_T why is the world moving towards 3d animation?! i like drawing more than all these technical stuff.
and only after getting the shock of my life in the forum, reality dawned on me. that i have tons of hmwk i have yet to touch. 1. motion graphics, 2. 3d modelling, 3. 2d run cycle, 4. study for 3d animation test, 5. webdesign tutorials. like oh shit. and...they're like, erm, due nx week o_o i never realised i had so much to do *_* oh dear oh dear. oh dear. oh freak shit aaaahhhhhh!
oh man, i love drawing module now T_T it's the easiest, the fastest, the slackest.
my extremely humble & disgusting bike parts T_T eew.
bikes.
6:47 PM
aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!! maya hanged on me T_T just as i did part of my motorcycle...so now all i have is the wheel. back to square one. boo. well, i was really patient today *_* (halo shines especially bright) and i didn't scream or anything even aft maya hanged. instead, i calmly closed the program, and headed off to dinner. so now aft dinner, i'm even calmer than before, and just decided to rant just in case there's some anti-3d modelling angry worm in me waiting to explode.
well, =x skipped 3d modelling make-up today, but i sure learnt a lot abt previous maya lessons from cheehui's wonderful notes! *_* she's a godsend. Thank you, ch! xD
well, met up with aud for a little shopping trip to art friend, and i stocked up on graphite pencils, black pastels/charcoal(?) and drawing block. the *toooot* guy said the drawing block was a2, but when i came home and put in beside my catridge paper, it's smaller than a2!!! grr. !@#$%^&* guy. bluff me. T_T so i'm sorry, mada. but it looks like the same one Miss Gwen was holding, so i guess it'll be alright =x if you're still unhappy we can go back and scold the guy. (hehe xP)
well, on my way home i realised that there are 3 kinds of ppl i can't stand in the mrt: (most disgusting ---> least)
1. kiasu ppl - i can't stand them. they're so..omg. kiasu -.- today i saw this disgusting auntie who was so eager for a stupid seat, when she saw someone getting ready to leave and putting her baby in the pram, she went up to the pram, held it for the person, then pushed it away from the person as if willing the person to leave. she didnt even know the person! eew, i wanted to kick her butt. UH. disgusting. i was really happy the person didnt leave. instead, her fren took over the pram and left the train. so the disgusting auntie rushed for another seat infront of me. i was trying to glare very hard, but obviously her eyes were as small as mine and she didn't realise i was glaring -.- shame on her. rar.
2. smelly ppl - eew. like, put on some deoderant for everyone's sake :S !!! yes, i love niceee smells. if testdrive has a fetish for hands, i'd say i have a fetish for nice smells. soap, pancakes, pacific paradise & CK are the best.
3. ppl who talk really loud - hello?! i can't even hear my music o_O they got to deaf. and they just don't get it even when the whole train is staring at them -.-
feels nice to rant :S off to maya :) haha!
web design rocks x)) !
Tuesday, May 09, 2006 9:03 AM
i'm in school now and i'm waaaaiiiiting for the teacher to come see my work. boohoo. i don't really like waiting. T_T maybe i shldn't have done my work aft all, then i'd be doing work now like some other ppl and i won't be so bored. i think it's quite a waste of time, and they go so slowly from one student to the next T_T...imagine. i woke up at 6.10 just for this.
anyway, had a great day ytd! :) it was our first drawing lesson with the sheridan lecturer and i was so terrified at first, but he isn't that bad after all x)) he's quite nice & encouraging, actually! he has long brown hair (think snape's hairstyle, just a little drier, a little thicker, and of a much lighter shade), a beard, and is a long and lanky kind of guy. reallyyyyy tall. i felt a little like a midget :S
well, thank God it was a good drawing day ytd. (good drawing days: days when the pencil is magic on paper.) actually, i used charcoal sticks for the first time! xD wa-wee! (note: there's a big diff between charcoal sticks and charcoal pencils.) haha. it's so nice to use. so wonderfully dirty and so easy to shade T_T i wish i'd tried it sooner. yay x)) will be meeting my dear aud tml to buy MORE charcoal sticks! disappearing too quickly is probably the only bad point abt it.
i'm hungry and still waiting.........
my slipper broke again.
Saturday, May 06, 2006 9:53 PM
slippers must hate me. i've broken 3 already.
so goes my day: 1.Broke slippers when i reached the mrt station
2.Walked back to my house, with one bare foot (i felt like a cave man & everyone was staring)
3.Ran to the station cos i was already terribly late
4.Didn't manage to get out of the train in time, so i missed my station
5.Someone dropped shaker fries on my bag
6.Spilled a bit ice lemon tea on myself
7.Went to the OMG house to do our storyboards (aka Cheryl's house)
now, i'll pause here to elaborate. Cheryl's house is GORGEOUS. like, right out of a magazine.
you walk in to an awesome porch made of panels of wood and a built-in koi pond. step into the house, you see a really comfy couch facing a gigantic lcd tv. walk on, you see 2 airwells at your sides. on your right, there's a wooden chair sitting calmly by a wall that has flowers carved in it. on your left, there lies a black shallow pond, with small orange goldfish, sitting amidst smooth grey pebbles and contrasting rough beige tiles. that's just the front portion of the house. everything else is OMG too, really; like her parent's walk in wardrobe and stuff. T_T .just WOW. amazing. i'm so going back there to take pictures *_* !
oh, and we were so fascinated by her fish that Cheryl gave us some bread to feed them. hehe. we fed the small ones in the black pond, and the big ones outside on the porch. i'd say the big ones are so much more fun! hehe. cos the biggest koi always gets the food (it just bangs the smaller ones away), me and amanda took it upon ourselves to make sure the smallest one gets some food! oh, such nobility :P!
we tried all sorts of ways, even creating distractions with some floating bread near the front, then throwing some squashed bread (so it sinks) to the small fish swimming at the back. well T_T turns out the fish is either blind/has no competitiveness in it at all, so it nv got to eat a single piece we threw for it. lol. we were laughing, screaming and cheering for it all the while. haha. so fun xD really laughed till i cramped up. lol. xD
8.Came home, had dinner with sq & watched him (in horror) eat his humungous amount of food with frightening speed *_*
9.Sq helped me install Maya!!! (and dreamweaver, and adobe after effects and helped me find out what was rong with my harddisk. haha. *_* thank God for helpful and smart ppl like him) i striked maya off my wishlist! haha! at long last! thank you, sq xD !
despite all that happened in the first half of the day, I'd say my day was really pretty good x) (i'm influenced by you, mada! now i keep playing the spirited away song, and am sitting here poignant. lol.)
surprise! xD
Thursday, May 04, 2006 8:51 PM
surprise surprise surprise x) ! xD i got a sssurprise ytd! i got a love letter from qy. a long one at that. a mushy one at tat! (although she asks me not to think so, it's so nicely mushy i have to think so; hehe) you're so sweet, pretty xD ! it's ok if u didn't go for my baptism :) i have your face automatically imprinted in my brain so when i see the gang photos, you're always inside. haha.
( *_* my qy dear also honestly stated she duno wad i really do in sch, so here goes. lol. my course is: Digital Media Design. basically, they teach me the fundamentals of everything - web design, 3d modelling/animation, 2d animation, drawing, digital softwares like photoshop & illustrator. so right now i'm in year 2 and i'm specialising in animation, but i still do web design stuff. i'm also learning motion graphics (using Adobe After Effects) - something like the spinning channel 5 icons, and the twirly graphics you see b4 a project superstar episode )
*** btw, God bless you for the National's Women Kayaking Champs my dear xD! get yourself a prize and i'll treat you to another cake okay x) ! lol. or mangoes, depending on how healthy you wanna be that day :)***
i feel so loved nowadays i'm beginning to wonder if it's alright to be like that. lol! besides the love letter ytd, today aud gave me a call aft sch to tell me she bought the wrapping papers i wanted ytd x) aw. and i was clinging on to her arm half the time while watching Mission Impossible III ytd cos the cinema was sooooooo cold. i bet amanda wld just have solidified and become numb in that temp. anyway, thank you for your love, pretties! well, MI 3 was really good!!! xD at least, i think so. the action was good, and add in a bit of drama to warm the heart. just about perfect.
today was an ok day =_= save for the fact i feel a little lousy about my grp's storyboards aft seeing the other grps. and we have to get our timing reel done by the coming MONDAY~!!! -.- and we have to change the characters, camera angles...it's almost like changing the whole thing, really. in 3 short days. i hope we manage to get our act together as a grp by monday. i want our animation to air during that Berlin Childrens' Fest or something like that *_* whatever. i just want my animation to be aired.
regular bowel movements
Tuesday, May 02, 2006 8:41 PM
regular bowel movements
boohoo. every half an hr or so i feel the need to go poop cos my poop has become strangely watery T_T and the weird part is i've been eating less vege & fruits, and drinking less water than normal cos i keep eating out. but then again, i guess i shld be grateful, because if you don't know, i have the constant problem of real bad old-ppl-constipation.
and ooo aaaaa ooomphh!!! wacom intuous, here i come *_*! turns out pea knows the supplier, so she mite be able to get it for me cheap cheap! *_* oooooo~~! so exciting. haha. but i'll still go down to sim lim tml to check out the prices. and and and! i wanna watch You Are My Sunshine! or shld i watch MI 3?...hmmm T_T

Erm. i want to talk face to face; or at least on the phone(?)...And don't tease me if you don't mean it. " ]

Poor girl :( we left our bags on the seats and went to get our food at mos burger, amk, and i think they were probably watching us, cos they only took her bag - aman & i brought all our valuables but eliz only brought her cash :( those mean ppl. they'll have a taste of their own medicine one day!

............and in the end i went back to sch =_= cos aman told me there was a retest for the html test (i skipped tue's tutorial). so ba. i went back in the end. we had to do the periodic table. LOL. memories~ i cld vaguely hear Mr Murali nagging abt the reactivity series at the back of my head.
the test wasn't as hard as i imagined it to be, but to type out all the elements and the number of atoms sure took up lots of time and made me feel like a robot. i didn't manage to complete coloring the tables though :( i think i left out 4 colors. i hope she doesn't penalize me for that. oh ya! we're gonna learn cascading style sheets nx week! at last something new x) yay!
itchy eyes
aaarrgh. my eyes are itchy. i don't know why. rarr. and testdrive doesn't feel like drawing anymore, and she's majoring in bio and linguistics for college (like wth? with the talent she got?!) and it's making me really sad :( no blog updates; no deviantart updates :( i'm a damn stalker :(
anyway, watched the da vinci code ytd. i still don't get all the hoo-ha over it. i mean, it's already classified fiction. and come on, to make the assumptions that Jesus is married with a family just because of a painting and some fictional 'facts' is really- lol -laughable. i wasn't offended at all (i tot i mite be slightly, at first) but, really. it isn't all that convincing. not more than my feelings & belief anyway.
but there are some really disgusting scenes in there *_* like how that pale dilated-pupils guy, Silas, whipped himself and put this spikey binding thing on his thigh to make himself bleed o_o''' like omg. he's not sharing Jesus' pain! he's a psycho, and a serious case at that. when he said with his dying breathe, "I am a ghost..." i was like, "Damn right, you are." He's soooo pale it's scary.
today i woke up at 7 to pass daniel my lanyard cos i didnt wanna go to sch for one hr of lecture, only to see a msg from perry that sunk my heart - pls call me as soon as you see this msg. urgent. like O_o GASP. did something go wrong with our timing reel?!!! so i called and wadever. problem solved although i haf this feeling it mite haf turned out to be an ugly timing reel. ha. the client had better say 'yes' to it. i'm so not drawing more panels till 9pm in sch.

the weeks go by so quickly.
i wish they'd go slow-mo for a while. i'm into the what? 5th week of my second yr? and i don't see myself like the seniors just yet. and as i walked home by myself today, i rmbed how romantic NYP is at night. hehe. so dark~ and complete with the sound of running water and beautiful sleeping koi. tender steps across the stone slabs on the pond. (*hey! possible suggestion to mada? lol.)
awww. if i didn't have make up class today i wld have been enjoying myself now, watching meiyin & hz dance :( baaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

did i bite the pear?
feeling so super slack nowadays aft knowing 3d has been pushed back to nx week. xD gwahaha! i just refused to do work for the past 2 days =x so. erm. someone scare me? lol.
i forgot to blog abt something tat happened a few days ago. i washed a pear and begun eating it. then i saw a bite mark in the pear which i don't remember leaving. i grew suspicious. (with a younger bro and a grandma at home, you can nv be too sure). so i bit off all the bits ard it, then threw it away. i think i'm always like that. i don't know if i made that bite, refuse to face it, beat ard the bush, then throw the whole situation away. i'm always like that.

checking up the weather in New York
checking up the weather in New York
haha! whoever knew checking up on weather cld be so fun x) ! knowing that we're gonna haf the briefing abt the 2-week study trip to the US tml, perry, shi han, eliz, aman and I got so excited we decided we have to find out what the weather's like over there. so we loaded internet explorer, stumbled onto a few useless sites, and finally found ourselves on bbc.com. "Boston" we happily typed into the word search - to perry's uttter horror, the temperature there is 9 degrees. haha. then we realised we were on the wrong page - we were on Boston, UK. so we backtracked and loaded the US page only to find the lecturer coming in and asking us to scram. but we were determined to find out what's it like there now. so we stayed on till the page loaded - 22 degrees :)
:S it doesn't reall sound as amusing here, writtten in words, but the atmosphere there was so funny la, with perry screaming at shi han and all of us squatting around a small computer screen waiting for a page to load. haha x)
well, really good news today xD the 3d assg dateline is gonna be pushed to nx fri so ,yay! xD i'm just gonna ignore it for as long as i can and do my motion graphics. hurhur. :) thank u, kailiang, for your encouragement. i'll try my hardest at 3d T_T
(ooooo. i really hope my parents will let me go to new york *_* the only reason they wldn't want me to go will prob be the money. i heard it's $2500? T_T donation to me, anyone?)
maya takes my life away
maya is a very powerful software. so powerful it takes years off my life each time i use it .T_T. what can i say. 3d modelling is just so not my forte. i purposely made the image small cos they're ugly. hurhur x((
so so so. i give up. i'm not doing anymore maya today. i'm gonna get my motion graphics homework done...and leave the rest of my sane days for insane maya. T_T what makes some ppl so good at it? i really wonder.
i can't wait for drawing lesson tml. i wonder what new stuff Mr Brian is gonna show us ... and surely feeling the paper & getting your hands all dirty with charcoal is much better than caressing the monitor with a virtual mouse? blue pill or red pill? who decides which world the red pill brings you to?
cut hair xD !
i'm gonna make this a super duper quick one cos i'm gonna go trim my hair! yay xD i woke up super duper early today (8am) so i cld do my work then go cut hair, and later go to church. ain't i hardworkin. muahaha. i plan well.
erm. yeap. so i went out with sq ytd to bugis to buy my mummy's day present. the real reason i wanted to go to bugis is because :p i wanted to buy my red with white polka-dot bag xD yay!!! and of cos, i bought it. butttt. the main motivation for goin out was still mummy's present. haha. i bought her 3 (there were only 3 different flavors) low-fat yoghurt bars aft much thought. haha. she was so happy when she saw it today, saying she's not gonna share it with anyone and she's gonna keep it to herself and include it in her low-fat diet plan.
x) i think it feels so sweet sometimes when ppl want to be selfish aft recieving your present. i hope everyone's selfish with my presents. *hehe. wad a bad thought :p Happy Mothers' Day, all you mummys out there :) daddys may be the head of the house, but mummys are the heart of the home. suumauhx~
OH DEAR.
OH DEAR. i have to warn lazy bums like me out there! i just visited the sdn forum to post up my screen cap of my humble 3d bike parts and like omg la. o_o ppl have completed theirs already?!!! (and their vehicles are tons prettier than mine T_T) there are more than a few perrys out there!!! omg. T_T why is the world moving towards 3d animation?! i like drawing more than all these technical stuff.
and only after getting the shock of my life in the forum, reality dawned on me. that i have tons of hmwk i have yet to touch. 1. motion graphics, 2. 3d modelling, 3. 2d run cycle, 4. study for 3d animation test, 5. webdesign tutorials. like oh shit. and...they're like, erm, due nx week o_o i never realised i had so much to do *_* oh dear oh dear. oh dear. oh freak shit aaaahhhhhh!
oh man, i love drawing module now T_T it's the easiest, the fastest, the slackest.
my extremely humble & disgusting bike parts T_T eew.
bikes.
aaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!!! maya hanged on me T_T just as i did part of my motorcycle...so now all i have is the wheel. back to square one. boo. well, i was really patient today *_* (halo shines especially bright) and i didn't scream or anything even aft maya hanged. instead, i calmly closed the program, and headed off to dinner. so now aft dinner, i'm even calmer than before, and just decided to rant just in case there's some anti-3d modelling angry worm in me waiting to explode.
well, =x skipped 3d modelling make-up today, but i sure learnt a lot abt previous maya lessons from cheehui's wonderful notes! *_* she's a godsend. Thank you, ch! xD
well, met up with aud for a little shopping trip to art friend, and i stocked up on graphite pencils, black pastels/charcoal(?) and drawing block. the *toooot* guy said the drawing block was a2, but when i came home and put in beside my catridge paper, it's smaller than a2!!! grr. !@#$%^&* guy. bluff me. T_T so i'm sorry, mada. but it looks like the same one Miss Gwen was holding, so i guess it'll be alright =x if you're still unhappy we can go back and scold the guy. (hehe xP)
well, on my way home i realised that there are 3 kinds of ppl i can't stand in the mrt: (most disgusting ---> least)
1. kiasu ppl - i can't stand them. they're so..omg. kiasu -.- today i saw this disgusting auntie who was so eager for a stupid seat, when she saw someone getting ready to leave and putting her baby in the pram, she went up to the pram, held it for the person, then pushed it away from the person as if willing the person to leave. she didnt even know the person! eew, i wanted to kick her butt. UH. disgusting. i was really happy the person didnt leave. instead, her fren took over the pram and left the train. so the disgusting auntie rushed for another seat infront of me. i was trying to glare very hard, but obviously her eyes were as small as mine and she didn't realise i was glaring -.- shame on her. rar.
2. smelly ppl - eew. like, put on some deoderant for everyone's sake :S !!! yes, i love niceee smells. if testdrive has a fetish for hands, i'd say i have a fetish for nice smells. soap, pancakes, pacific paradise & CK are the best.
3. ppl who talk really loud - hello?! i can't even hear my music o_O they got to deaf. and they just don't get it even when the whole train is staring at them -.-
feels nice to rant :S off to maya :) haha!
web design rocks x)) !
i'm in school now and i'm waaaaiiiiting for the teacher to come see my work. boohoo. i don't really like waiting. T_T maybe i shldn't have done my work aft all, then i'd be doing work now like some other ppl and i won't be so bored. i think it's quite a waste of time, and they go so slowly from one student to the next T_T...imagine. i woke up at 6.10 just for this.
anyway, had a great day ytd! :) it was our first drawing lesson with the sheridan lecturer and i was so terrified at first, but he isn't that bad after all x)) he's quite nice & encouraging, actually! he has long brown hair (think snape's hairstyle, just a little drier, a little thicker, and of a much lighter shade), a beard, and is a long and lanky kind of guy. reallyyyyy tall. i felt a little like a midget :S
well, thank God it was a good drawing day ytd. (good drawing days: days when the pencil is magic on paper.) actually, i used charcoal sticks for the first time! xD wa-wee! (note: there's a big diff between charcoal sticks and charcoal pencils.) haha. it's so nice to use. so wonderfully dirty and so easy to shade T_T i wish i'd tried it sooner. yay x)) will be meeting my dear aud tml to buy MORE charcoal sticks! disappearing too quickly is probably the only bad point abt it.
i'm hungry and still waiting.........
my slipper broke again.
slippers must hate me. i've broken 3 already.
so goes my day: 1.Broke slippers when i reached the mrt station
2.Walked back to my house, with one bare foot (i felt like a cave man & everyone was staring)
3.Ran to the station cos i was already terribly late
4.Didn't manage to get out of the train in time, so i missed my station
5.Someone dropped shaker fries on my bag
6.Spilled a bit ice lemon tea on myself
7.Went to the OMG house to do our storyboards (aka Cheryl's house)
now, i'll pause here to elaborate. Cheryl's house is GORGEOUS. like, right out of a magazine.
you walk in to an awesome porch made of panels of wood and a built-in koi pond. step into the house, you see a really comfy couch facing a gigantic lcd tv. walk on, you see 2 airwells at your sides. on your right, there's a wooden chair sitting calmly by a wall that has flowers carved in it. on your left, there lies a black shallow pond, with small orange goldfish, sitting amidst smooth grey pebbles and contrasting rough beige tiles. that's just the front portion of the house. everything else is OMG too, really; like her parent's walk in wardrobe and stuff. T_T .just WOW. amazing. i'm so going back there to take pictures *_* !
oh, and we were so fascinated by her fish that Cheryl gave us some bread to feed them. hehe. we fed the small ones in the black pond, and the big ones outside on the porch. i'd say the big ones are so much more fun! hehe. cos the biggest koi always gets the food (it just bangs the smaller ones away), me and amanda took it upon ourselves to make sure the smallest one gets some food! oh, such nobility :P!
we tried all sorts of ways, even creating distractions with some floating bread near the front, then throwing some squashed bread (so it sinks) to the small fish swimming at the back. well T_T turns out the fish is either blind/has no competitiveness in it at all, so it nv got to eat a single piece we threw for it. lol. we were laughing, screaming and cheering for it all the while. haha. so fun xD really laughed till i cramped up. lol. xD
8.Came home, had dinner with sq & watched him (in horror) eat his humungous amount of food with frightening speed *_*
9.Sq helped me install Maya!!! (and dreamweaver, and adobe after effects and helped me find out what was rong with my harddisk. haha. *_* thank God for helpful and smart ppl like him) i striked maya off my wishlist! haha! at long last! thank you, sq xD !
despite all that happened in the first half of the day, I'd say my day was really pretty good x) (i'm influenced by you, mada! now i keep playing the spirited away song, and am sitting here poignant. lol.)
surprise! xD
surprise surprise surprise x) ! xD i got a sssurprise ytd! i got a love letter from qy. a long one at that. a mushy one at tat! (although she asks me not to think so, it's so nicely mushy i have to think so; hehe) you're so sweet, pretty xD ! it's ok if u didn't go for my baptism :) i have your face automatically imprinted in my brain so when i see the gang photos, you're always inside. haha.
( *_* my qy dear also honestly stated she duno wad i really do in sch, so here goes. lol. my course is: Digital Media Design. basically, they teach me the fundamentals of everything - web design, 3d modelling/animation, 2d animation, drawing, digital softwares like photoshop & illustrator. so right now i'm in year 2 and i'm specialising in animation, but i still do web design stuff. i'm also learning motion graphics (using Adobe After Effects) - something like the spinning channel 5 icons, and the twirly graphics you see b4 a project superstar episode )
*** btw, God bless you for the National's Women Kayaking Champs my dear xD! get yourself a prize and i'll treat you to another cake okay x) ! lol. or mangoes, depending on how healthy you wanna be that day :)***
i feel so loved nowadays i'm beginning to wonder if it's alright to be like that. lol! besides the love letter ytd, today aud gave me a call aft sch to tell me she bought the wrapping papers i wanted ytd x) aw. and i was clinging on to her arm half the time while watching Mission Impossible III ytd cos the cinema was sooooooo cold. i bet amanda wld just have solidified and become numb in that temp. anyway, thank you for your love, pretties! well, MI 3 was really good!!! xD at least, i think so. the action was good, and add in a bit of drama to warm the heart. just about perfect.
today was an ok day =_= save for the fact i feel a little lousy about my grp's storyboards aft seeing the other grps. and we have to get our timing reel done by the coming MONDAY~!!! -.- and we have to change the characters, camera angles...it's almost like changing the whole thing, really. in 3 short days. i hope we manage to get our act together as a grp by monday. i want our animation to air during that Berlin Childrens' Fest or something like that *_* whatever. i just want my animation to be aired.
regular bowel movements
regular bowel movements
boohoo. every half an hr or so i feel the need to go poop cos my poop has become strangely watery T_T and the weird part is i've been eating less vege & fruits, and drinking less water than normal cos i keep eating out. but then again, i guess i shld be grateful, because if you don't know, i have the constant problem of real bad old-ppl-constipation.
and ooo aaaaa ooomphh!!! wacom intuous, here i come *_*! turns out pea knows the supplier, so she mite be able to get it for me cheap cheap! *_* oooooo~~! so exciting. haha. but i'll still go down to sim lim tml to check out the prices. and and and! i wanna watch You Are My Sunshine! or shld i watch MI 3?...hmmm T_T
...i'm such a stalker. haha. the first thing i do everytime i go online is to check out testdrive's blog and deviant accnt. *_* why i'm so drawn boggles me. luuuuurrrrvvveeeee. here's one of her works:

[ "Well, you're talking to me now. after i've waited a few days. and it's giving me a littttle pressure. ha. it's all a question of acting like i don't care and refusing to believe i do, really. Erm. i want to talk face to face; or at least on the phone(?)...And don't tease me if you don't mean it. " ]
