  • Past Few Days In Taylor’s And Bandar Sunway

    Past Few Days In Taylor’s And Bandar Sunway

    Yoyoyo guys, I am back, sorry for being MIA for about 2 weeks. I went back home to Penang last week and I am back to Bandar Sunway right now and the best part of all is I have done all the presentation needed in college! Say YAY! It had been many sleepless nights for me since last week, spending time till early morning in university and also in my room, slept for like couple of hours and was a zombie all the time.


    Back to PENANG!!!

    The tiredness payoff, it’s fun, yet tiring. Though, it haven’t comes to an end yet because I still have 2 submission to go, though need less hands on because both of them are computer work and 2 paper of examination coming next week then after that I am free like a bird, for at least 2 months.

    This week is supposed to be a study break holiday, somehow lecturer moved the presentation to this week and I don’t really get to spend time back in Penang. My coming back to college make me shock because stupid Taylor’s University closes the back gate again and I have to drive my car into uni to park somewhere 1km away. Really pissed me off, moreover the weather was so hot past few days.

    Had two presentations lately. I think I don’t hate presentation because I want to be like Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs who deliver awesomely great keynote. He is my idol and he is my role model. Yet, I still need to learn more, crap more, only then I can be like him. Steve Jobs rocks. Presentation subject was about L

    eon Batistta Alberti, some Renaissance Italian architect. Haha. Not bad, learned something about him.

    Next was I spent a lot of time in my little rented room, I have moved out of hostel by the way, for quite some times. Taylor’s University Hostel sucks to the max, don’t stay. Unlike lastly where I spent most of the midnight in campus, I didn’t for this week because I started off in my room so I want to end it in my room too.

    Created a big mess in the room, super dirty, UHU glue, paper cutting, food, drinks everywhere but don’t worry, it’s clean now because it’s over!

    Finally, I created a model, and of course, several orthographic drawings. Two more assignments to go! Wish me luck! Have a nice day friends. =)

  • Play iPad’s Tap Tap In IBS Class

    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.

  • Video: A Day In Interior Behaviour Study Class

    It’s a very random short clip about the IBS class that I attend every Thursday. It’s a 4 hours studio-style class with lots of tutorial and awesome lecture, Mr Foo Cherch Kang. =D

  • Site Visit To Tune Studio At Klang

    Site Visit To Tune Studio At Klang

    Recently just been to a site visit with the Interior Behaviour Study class people to the Tune Studio at Klang. It’s kinda new and my lecturer told us the interior design of the studio is pretty cool so we went to check it out. One thing I dislike about the school is they are charging us RM10 per trip for a return bus fare which increased RM5 from the previous RM5 fare.

    What the hell are they bus company doing to the school. It’s just not reasonable, not relevant also. Sucks.

    Forget about it and let’s talk about Tune Studio. This is actually a music production studio that available to rent for people who want to make their own music or jam at there and it’s pretty new.

    Located in the also quite new Harbour Place Mall in Klang on the 2nd floor, it’s not open to public yet. I am so glad that I am some first visit to the place, not to record a CD but to check out the interior design and stuff.

    The journey from Taylor’s University to Tune Studio was like about 25-30 minutes. We had a tour guide that day and she’s Veronica, head of marketing for the Tune Studio too. It’s nice to have a tour guide but I prefer moving around the place myself. Lighting was pretty dim so it’s pretty hard to take a good shot, I need ISO 320o or ISO 6400 now! Haha.

    I think it’s pretty cool. Musical instrument are available during rental and so bad that I couldn’t play any music. I would like to learn to play guitar and piano. It’s seems so cool and so fun to play. Will it be hard to learn? =)

    I feel it’s quite a nice place to take photo, if I have a wider lens and wider aperture one, then it would be awesome. =D Daddy please buy me a new camera. *finger cross*

     


    MJ sketching the place.


    Nice map on wall.

     

    Group shot.

    Spent about an hour plus inside then back to school. The place is quite small, but I feel it’s awesome. The design uses more on wood material which gives a warm feeling and cosy too. Nice.

  • Walking Around Level 4 of Taylor’s University Library

    Walking Around Level 4 of Taylor’s University Library

    I was doing some group discussion on an assignment in the library for few hours then I got bored. It’s not nice to stick an ass on the chair for few hours without moving around. Because of boredness, I took out my little handy Panasonic Lumix LX5 to go shoot around. I guess I’ll let the photos speak for now.

    It was evening time, nearing to sunset and there’s still many people in the library. Library is always a very cold place with very low temperature, moving around could warm me up a little bit too.

    I think the best part of Taylor’s University is the resources archive, the library because it has a very big collection of books for me to do reference. There’s no way that I can afford those design’s reference book.

    Another thing is I like the Internet, spending time in the library downloading huge files with the blazing fast Internet. =D Yum yum.

    And I’m writing this post from the library. =)

  • Overnight at Taylor’s Study Room 24/7 for IBS Project

    Overnight at Taylor’s Study Room 24/7 for IBS Project


    Wesley Low and Low Jia Hui.

    Till now, I still haven’t try not sleeping for whole night and continue work for another day. Seriously, the minimum hour I slept in my life is 30 minutes, which is 2 days ago. =D But the feeling and the fun of doing the work together till late was fun, for that day only.


    Kevin To of Vietnam. Blur look.

    Interior Behaviour Study and Malaysian Studies, two project due at the same time and our last minute worms in our body made us stayed up in the campus’ 24/7 study room for the whole night, accompany by cold air-con, Internet, Red Bull, quietness and sleepyness.


    Wanyi and Steve.

    I was there from 7pm until 730am the next morning, oh yeah. Cutting, writing, pasting, modelling, idea-ing, that’s what I did.

    People told me that Red Bull can help us stay awake and it’s indeed true, and the drinks is delicious too, but it’s only functioned for about 2-3 hours for me. Haha. I still felt tired and sleepy after having one in the midnight. Food from the vending machine accompanied me too.


    Arvin in the background, looking sleepy.

    By the time I went back home to freshen up, it’s 7.00am where sun was already rising. I took a short sleep for half an hour then I went back to school for lecture and presentation.

    The road started to jam early in the morning, now I only knew about that as I thought that road was supposed to be smooth in the morning. Haha.

    =) Work of Arvin, Kevin and Nicholas.

    P1050950

    P1050954

    P1050956

    Later that morning, I had two presentation, one for Malaysian Studies and another for Interior Behaviour Studies, did good, and still power. But my battery went low in the afternoon went I lied on the bed, straight away slept till night and felt reborn after that. Haha.

    I personally feel that works and assignments are good because I paid a big amount to study, I don’t want to pay for nothing. =) But not too over assignments, lah. Haha.

     

  • Wesley Low at Malaysian Studies of LT6, Taylor’s University

    Wesley Low at Malaysian Studies of LT6, Taylor’s University

    He is Wesley Low, my classmate, from Seremban and he is a mix Filipino and Chinese. He came to the Lecture Theater 6 or known as LT6 and found out that there’s no lecturer or student inside and he decided to be the lecturer, and give a lecture.

    The only student or listener to Wesley’s lecture was Farah Izzati. She did concentrating-ly listened to him.

    And another student Steve Pang came, and took photos of Wesley.

    Hahaha. Very lame of me. Actually that day was Malaysian Studies class and you know I know everyone dislike Malaysian Studies, it’s not the subject sucks or lecturer sucks, it’s just that it’s a waste of time when we have already study related stuff during high school history and civic education, it’s all about Malaysian history, just that Malaysian Studies is the same stuff convert into English language. It’s just a waste of time, but then we still went. =D

    That day was early but in fact almost time but no one was there except us, very weird, perhaps lazy people. Haha.

  • Taylor’s BARIO Leave A Mark Charity Event

    Taylor’s BARIO Leave A Mark Charity Event

    The BARIO Project at Taylor’s University is a charity project that is about providing education to poor children in Sabah. Recently they have a charity event call “Leave A Mark” where you can leave a mark then do donation to the project. I passed by the event area in campus and with curiosity, I went to check it out. Haha.

     

    It’s nice to see charity stuff around Taylor’s. I took part in the Leave A Mark thing. It’s actually stamping your palm on a cloth, letting the children know that we know about their existence and care for them. =)

     

    This thing is organized by the International Student group and best part of all is that they give free Ribena. Really quenched my thirst that noon.

    But of course, I did make some donation as well and help them reach the target of palm stamping.

    First you pick a hand.

    Then y0u pick a colour. Sorry, black was fully stamped and it’s yellow left.


    Mellysa and Wanyi.

    Then you be ready to stamp.

     

    Helper were very kind to help you to stamp.

    And I left a mark, somewhere on the left. =)

  • An Interior Behaviour Study Class

    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.
