in a stroke of boredom, i figured keeping myself occupied by updating my cobweb-filled journal would be at least fill my time with some sort of productivity. first off, lemme just say today i found myself with a perfectly nice sunday devoid of anything that has been keeping me occupied these past few weeks (months?); no assignments to rush for tmr, no photoshoots to help with, no yumchas or outings to join, no sleep time to regain. in other words, a perfect nonbiri (carefree) day :D
ppl on my lj flist : what do you mean u've been busy? we've never saw anything on here!
me : thats cos i was being lazy durhhh
them : *facepalm*
fret not, for my will to lj hath returned! (at least for today la :P) ill just talk about my architorture assignments for now. and there will be no ljcuts cos i know you all love me so 8D;;;;
firstly, i had a group project with 3 other studiomates to build our take off a 1:1 scale 4m square kitchen for 2 students. we chose architecture students in the end, cos some other group yanked art students as their "clients" and lecturer liked their concept better pif :P here are 2 pictures of the finished product :
for those wondering, the stack of boxes in the left picture are our racks cum fridge unit. the picture on the right features the sink & microwave unit hidden by the screen in the left pic. we made the mistake of forgetting to label what's what neither on the model nor on the presentation boards, but aside from that lecturer liked our concept XD
with this project done, our lecturers started us on our next (and final) project for this semester : an 80m square Compact Retreat House for 4 ppl. it was a solo project, and our studio was divided into 2 groups for option of clients : 2 parents with 2 children between age 6-15, OR 4 yuppies consisting of 2 male and 2 females. what they would be doing there would be entirely up to us. the site for our project? bukit cerakah in shah alam, which meant a class trip there! (during puasa no less). the trip happened last monday, here are a few of the more nicer pictures of that place that i took (click on the picture for the fotobaldi album):
i've chosen to build a Cosplay Retreat at the site in the 2nd picture, with the lily pads as my design concept for floor plan layout and stuff. lecturer was, to say the least, VERY interested with the cosplay side of my project, and grilled me about it for half of my presentation time LOL. suffice to say i now have very big expectations to fill XD;;;;
in non-architorture-yet-still-uni related news, my plan for using Cosplay as my subject for our first Public Speech assignment went well with the lecturer. ive got a feeling i will prolly be labeled as THE cosplay guy by my classmates after this if i havent been already hahaha. thankfully for the final Public Speech assignment lecturer has already OKed my "How Apple Changed the World" speech idea, so they could prolly have forgotten by then XD;;;
i've also joined the uni drama club for my co-curriculum credits, and have been given the role of Teruna for the play we're gonna do for the course assessment :P hopefully i can pull it off, as it requires me to be lovey dovey with a girl, and i havent been able to do it the last 2 training sessions. on the flipside if i can pull this off going into UST mode for Zima during cf would prolly be ezcakes :3
that's all for my architortured life as of today. on the outings and photoshoots n stuff i figure you all will prolly find out from other sources soonish anyways, so why bother eh? till later! ^^)/
