Chapter 3 - School assignment :Part 1

In the outset of this semester, I wished to experience different academic discipline subjects other than electrical stuffs (should I say take up some challenges...WoW) so i bolster myself and register 2 art-related subjects. Guess what? These 2 subject applications were accepted OMG. I am so damn lucky. 100++ students were fighting for each of these subjects which will only open for 32 students.

The course I took was Interactive Public Art and Media and i will reveal the other one in my coming post (keke). Interactive Public Art and Media...Hmm... sound very professional; I like it. So, I was very exciting and went to the my first class. Oh! the lecturer is Ah Mo! (After few classes, I then realized he is a jew.) Wa...can't understand 70% of what he was saying. He started by introducing the course outline and then brought us to our first interactive public art: memorial. What is memorial? According to him, it is something that you want to remember. So, he showed us those war memorials and famous people monuments and analyzed them in term of ratio, degree of interactive, meaning and blablabla...Actually it should be a very interesting course but the problem is I DON'T UNDERSTAND what he say most of the time. Haihz my English still need to be improved. However this is only the beginning.

After attended few classes, it was our assignment time! Okey, i though it will be some essay or research but i was wrong. He wanted us to create our own memorial and showed him in the form of presentation! Huh...wei....I have no sense of art and design le. How am i going to do it wo. I scratched my head so hard to think Hmm...what is the 'something' i want to remember? After spending 3 weeks to think, design and touch up, in the end here it is my memorial : Sam Tet, my secondary school!!! YEAH~ Although it is not as good as Laima's © product but i am quite happy with it (and that is how i start to use Adobe Photoshop; OMG is FUN; not because of Hamming roommate's hobby)...lol...

Chapter 2 - NTU Open House

Today is my school open house with the theme: Discover L.I.F.E@NTU (where Learning Is Fun and Exciting@NTU). This grand event had took place in 3 large areas in our school and the orientations are:



Nanyang Auditorium - Showcases our research, science and technology.



The Quad and School of Biological Science(SBS) Foyer (the blue building)



SBS- All academic booths inside were used to attract those prospective students to join NTU when they reached the age to choose their university from the only 3 unviversities in Singapore ( So many heads around and i hardly moved freely)




The Quad - Present various clubs and society of our schools. A stage was set up to allow talented NTU students to have performances.

IET booth- I incharged and decorated one...haha..not bad le...

Buddhist club- WOw...the best decoration among other other booths, i think. According to them this was 菩提树 wo~~~

Actually I had watched the whole layout of NTU open house before the actual day because i was decorating my booth in the night before that day; until 12am something. On NTU open house that day, I woke up at damn early 730am which i usually don't do it on weekend. Make up myself and rushed to The Quad to check my booth whether my yesterday's hard work had dropped on to ground or flew away. ( Luckily still as leng zai as yesterday...lol).

After made sure everyday was fined, I left the booth to my committees and walk around others booth to feel the aura of the day...hmm...will soon be crowded by polytechnic students; hope can see a lot of leng lui...haha... After 20 minutes spent for 'shopping', I have to leave the place and go to library for the rest of the day T_T . I can't follow the pace of my studies ah!!!Pathetic life...

Chapter 1 - Sem Break

One week break for this sem again. This time i just managed to go back Ipoh for 5 days. No much practical stuffs i can do so i spent most of the time with my lovely family. All of my friends were still studying in their respective university.

Luckily this time Ms Lee YinCi was here in Ipoh and I finally can met her up for a short while after 1 year...hoho...She really didn't change much (mostly in term of weight kekeke). Really happy to see her. Perhaps it will take more than 1 year to see her again. Please take care ya. (and share your fat mui book for others like laima la haha...). ^_^

Just blink of eyes, I had to go back to Singapore again. Whole family was depressed about my leave. Especially my mom and little brother, they are always my hardcore fans!!! They will always be there when i came home and went back to Singapore; no matter how late and early. Haihz i also didn't feel like wanna leave.

Before I had my dinner in the last day, I sat on my father legs ( I really put all my weight on him, what a son...) and engage a small talk with him. He is really getting older and older; more and more obvious. Is very heart aching ...Take care dad...your are always my hero. ARhhhh I don't want to go back ah.
