Do Project Until Party In Taylor’s University Studio

Do Project Until Party In Taylor’s University Studio – As the title said, we was working on a design project in the school’s studio, then it turned up to be a mini pizza party. Haha. It was 3 weeks ago where I was working on a Architecture History project with my teammate – Steve, Wesley, Jia Hui and Arvin from early morning until night.

You know, when you are working on the same thing for a long period of time, your mind will tend to become slow or stunned. It’s at some point that work productivity rate is so low that you can think of anything or proceed.

That time was dinner time and we ordered Pizza Hut Delivery as we were lazy to go out to buy food. It’s weekend and there’s not much food choices in the campus. It took me quite some times to successfully ordered my delivery online as now only I know that Pizza Hut Delivery is the new thing, it’s different from the old 1300-88-2525. The menu is different from dine-in too.

As we went to collect the pizza, we saw unwanted balloon from an event that has just ended. Instead of disposing, we just took it back to studio to add in some party feel for us to S.S. (Shiok Sendiri).

4 regular pizzas, 25 slices, 5 people, we finished it in less than 20 minutes. We were just too hungry. It was crazy, fun, but we completed our work after that.

Arvin, Jia Hui, me, Wesley, Steve.

One more week of holiday to go! It’s so short and not enough for me. Arghh.

Food Kiosk Project Presentation Day!

Arvin, Jia Hui, Wesley and Me! My group member all the time.

Food Kiosk Project Presentation Day! – Finally, I can get a very short break now after working for so many weeks for the Food Kiosk design project for my Interior Design Studio subject. Just had my presentation yesterday, not perfect, but satisfied with what I’ve done. Although there’s critics from the lecturers, I take them as advice for improvement in future project and assignments.

Arvin, Jia Hui, Steve, Wesley and Rasyid.

Fana, Nita, Hanan, Mellysa.

The main thing that I’ve learned recently is 3D rendering. I love Google Sketchup + Vray, they are awesome. But then rendering 3D with Vray is a very hard thing because the setting is very hard to understand. It’s just like C++ programming and stuff. A lot of trial and error and trying and testing to make a perfect one. I am still learning and need to learn from the pro, perhaps take an external course (any idea where?). =D By the way, 3Dsmax sucks. Haha.

Moh and Ken.

The presentation was fun. Spent quite a lot for printing, but love what I’ve printed. I was nervous before my turn but it went fun during my turn to explain and present. Yay!

Ana, Zetty, Fahdran and Zhi Sheng.

MJ and Zhen.

Well, happy short 1-week holiday to my classmate, I am going to the most awesome place in Malaysia – Penang tomorrow, my home! And after the break, gonna get busy again with another project. Busy college life, and it’s fun.

One more thing, here’s… me! =D

=D

Photograph Scan, Book Fair Bee, One-Leg Goose & Brooklyn Bridge

Photograph Scan, Book Fair Bee, One-Leg Goose & Brooklyn Bridge – Back to school, back to university, it’s second week of the new semester and I am very busy already, many assignments to settle and I really have to manage time well. This semester, the timetable is kinda uncomfortable because my class starts at 8am on Monday to Wednesday.

Imagine 8am class, I have to wake up early and I don’t get sufficient sleep everyday. That’s no good to my health. I know I can sleep early to achieve the standard 8 hours of sleep but then I couldn’t do it, I can’t afford to sleep early, I have plenty of work to do, I want to be A Star student. Hahaha. Anyway, class have been going smoothly, it’s fun, it’s tiring, it’s OK, it’s not-bad, it’s still good. Well, let’s check out some interesting photos that I have taken few days ago.

1. Technology is really awesome, now everyone does not need to copy notes on the screen anymore, it just take your camera, point and shoot, and scan. That’s it. Simple as that. It’s funny to see that when everyone is standing in front of the screen.

2. Little reading bee mascot was walking around campus to promote the Taylor’s Book Fair. There was a book fair at the library, a few bookstores were there, but I did not buy anything, I don’t really read, I prefer design magazine. How about you?

3. 1-legged goose! ???? It actually hid its leg and stood on one-leg under the heavy rain, I wondered, why?

4. Followed my friend to the Taylor’s ADP (American Degree Program) office, it’s pretty cool up there, it’s like school in the USA where students can hang out around here. I believe it’s a place for ADP student to wait and chill before the next class.

5. Feel free to hang out here for as long as you want ……….

6. Found Brooklyn Bridge of New York here at the office! I want this in my room.

On the other hand……

Are you guys going to any holiday? It seems to be a while that I did not travel, the last place I traveled was Singapore a few weeks ago, and I am planning to go else where during my next holiday, perhaps Taiwan, or maybe the USA or UK. I am dreaming a lot. Haha, because a lot of friends of mine are in UK, I want to go there to find them and travel around, but my dream place would be the USA.

Anyway, I did actually plan many holiday, but then they normally turns up to be a last minute holiday, ‘plan ahead’ doesn’t seems to work on me. Your itinerary can be plan last minute, but the flights booking shall be made early, else it will be very expensive. Last time, my brother did not book the flights to Los Angeles early, ended up a very expensive flight rate. So, buy your flight ticket early. =D

A Week In Taylor’s University #2

#1: Friends who were in the filming of Ah Niu’s latest movie.

A Week In Taylor’s University #2 – It’s another week in Taylor’s. The week was packed, wet, saw some cool stuff in school, but afterall, it’s just another week in Taylor’s. Monday was pretty surprised for us as we came across with another film shooting in our campus featuring the local director/actor/singer – Ah Niu. It’s Ah Niu’s latest film and I’ve no idea what it is, and he came to shoot the scene here.

#2: Spotted Ah Niu in white tee sitting.

#3: This is what the filming crew eat for lunch.

#4: Part of the filming. Security guard shooting. For your technical information, they actually used the RED brand camera to shoot the film.

A few friends actually join the temporary actor but the bad news is that they only received RM11 for buying food for two days. No pay. So lousy. Luckily I did not join them. I thought they were gonna get paid like maybe RM50? =D

#5: Ah Niu in weird hair.

#6: Another scene.

#7: Ah Niu in white shirt.

We were actually having lunch then my friend told me to look across the lake, only then I see they were doing the shooting. We wanted to go check it out but was in a rush to class. What’s great and lucky was, our classroom was just right above the film shooting scene where we could see some live action down there. Ah Niu was dressing very weird. I wonder what the movie will like when it’s on the screen. =D

#8: Busy with work.

#9: Lots of discussion going on.

#10: Our in house magician, Zhi Sheng from 6 Of Spade.

The days went on with the mind thinking about assignment due dates. We’ve got lots of assignment due dates coming soon, just din one last week and more to come. Weekend will not be like a holiday anymore. Weekends are busy right now.

#11: Overnight in school.

#12: Rain, I wore shorts which result in a wet feet.

#13: Super heavy rain.

#14: Raindrops falling of the sky,

#15: Rain.

The weather have been kinda crazy right now, sometimes very hot, sometimes very cold. It rained a lot lately, it’s not just drizzling off the sky, it’s huge, it’s loud, accompany by the roaring thunder.

#16: Setting up stage for the Share The Love concert.

#17: Spent some time at the Study Room.

#18: Working at night.

#19: Entertainment during work.

#20: Testing all the technical stuff for the concert.

#21: Photography during midnight.

Spent a few nights in the campus, saw a mini concert in the campus, worked on assignments, and that’s my week in Taylor’s University.

Play iPad’s Tap Tap In IBS Class

Haha. I am posting photos taken during the Interior Behaviour Study class again. The class duration is like so long 4-hour straight nonstop and it is in the design studio. Loving design studio a lot! =D One day during the class while the lecturer was attending other group for tutorial, we played Tap Tap. I am still figuring how to download songs onto Tap Tap Revenge, any tutorial? =)

We were playing Lady Gaga Revenge for most of the time as it’s the only one that has multiplayer on my iPad. I don’t have songs in my Tap Tap Revenge though. Haha.

=.=

The multiplayer that we played was not two person only, there’s like 6 person playing a single Tap Tap game because of six different fingers. =D

Then nothing much, went around to take photos, talk and wait for the tutorial from the lecturer.

And next week would be the last week for this semester, yet I have plenty of assignments to rush for! Due dates! Sleepless night! Coffee! Red Bull! OMG! Wish me luck and give me spiritual support. Haha.

An Interior Behaviour Study Class

Another day in uni which is the just recent Thursday. =D Design course is not exam-oriented, it’s not about memorizing but it’s more on concept and thinking. Ah! Everyday, I think think think and think to do assignent, which is quite tiring to me, but somehow fun after getting outcome.

Sometimes, I thought, why not just give me exam and take away all the assignment because high school time was all about exam instead of assignment. Exam are easy IMO, it’s just study and memorizing. Haha. But assignment is always about thinking and enhancing the work to perfect.

Interior Behaviour Study is one of the subject I’ve got for this semester. It’s about study on the relationship of human behaviour with interior design. It’s theory again, but the there’s more hands-on work than reading. =(

CK and Arowa from Saudi Arabia.

And my lecturer CK is a perfectionist, so work always get rejected and I always thinking hard on how to do well on the project. Well, it’s OK, I can’t complain that much, yet it’s pretty tiring I feel. Current project is about designing a social place on existing Taylor’s site in-related to the human needs at that site. I think you probably don’t know what am I talk about, cut the crap. Haha.

Tell you something, Indonesian really love BlackBerry a lot. I have no idea why. You can see people with BlackBerry in Taylor’s are mostly Indonesian and they always BBM nonstop. Haa.

Farah, Jia Hui, Steve and Wesley. =D

It’s another day in class and the day was a tutorial on the on-going project we are doing right now. Worksome, and not-awesome. One thing not nice about the class is it’s 4 hours straight with no meal break. So I need to prepare myself a small packet of cookies to eat in class.

LOL. NA from Vincent of Vietnam.

Aseel look so EMO.

Hyper Aida.

Shy shy Wanyi from Penang, Nita and Mellysa from Medan. =D Really International class. Haha.

The fun about being in a small class is that you get close attention and the not-fun is you don’t get to meet new person throughout the course, unless you walk upfront to student of other courses.

And the nice thing about studying in Taylor’s is you meet people of different places. Sweet. =D

Kevin!

English, Mandarin, Hokkien and Malay are the medium of conversation in class. Haha. Multi-languages class. Nice to know that Medan’s Hokkien is almost identical to Penang Hokkien, just unfortunately there’s no people speaking the KL’s local Cantonese dialect which I use to speak to my family.

Vain Wesley from Seremban and Kevin from Vietnam.

Act cool Arvin of Medan.

Ah! I need to catch up with my assignment already. =X Any idea on creating a new interacting spaces on a walkway? Haha.

Building Materials x Golf

Hello people, I don’t know why I am sharing about Building Materials class again. You think I very like the class? Haha. So-so only. I like drawing and design class more. =D

It was a tutorial class. Tutorial about our project so it was free time and we have got nothing to do at there in the class and it was cold. Talk, talk, talk only.

Vincent from Vietnam.

Pui Wooi from Sabah.

Then suddenly, Wesley took a paper trash ball, and a T square then started acting like playing golf. LOL.

HAHAHA.

Foo CK’s Building Material Project 2 Presentation

Foo CK is my lecturer for Building Material class. Frankly speaking, this class is not very wonderful because there’s many theory and research work to do. Though, this is college, many stuff will not be liken and I still have to accept it. It’s ok, it’s alright. I don’t really complain a lot. It’s life people.

University, college, is not much different from high school in my opinion. Just stuff get more serious. Presentation became cooler and more professional than before. I love presentation, I like talking in front, my idol keynote presenter is Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Inc! That’s why I always follow his keynote all the time. Rocks.

Just sharing here are some photos, taken during the presentation about building materials. Photos are taken by my lecturer, Mr Foo. =D He borrowed my LX5 to snap the photos.

This presentation is about research of two material we have picked during our Ikano Power Centre site visit few weeks ago. We reviewed, researched and have to write up all the stuff on mounting board, at same time also prepared powerpoint slides. I felt I didn’t do so well but thankfully, I got pretty good result fo this. Oh yeah.

My group. Good job people.

My group’s board 1.

My group’s board 2.

=) Do you like to present?
