Hrm.... how should I start this... Oh, right.. here goes :



26th September 2007
My internet provider, also known as TMNUTS SCREAMyx went f**ked and gave me sh*tty connection speed. I have subscribed myself to a 512 KB connection and that day, not even 200KB was given .
Surely some of you might ask me, "WTF, why is there even a connection as low as 512 KB still around?!"

Yeah.... My country sux =_=; I heard... even our neighboring country, Singapore has at least a minimum of 1 MB ..... Bah !... We're still having KB... Psh !


2nd October 2007
I think my GD (Graphic Design) lecturer has some issues with me... That day was my assessment day, I handed in a full work *Yay~* I'm quite happy with it, except there was a few erm... unsatisfied areas of course, nonetheless I felt it was okay and at least it's complete. Dududu~ After the assessment, we were to gather in an empty classroom, our 'results' was given (Well it's not actually our true result, just of what he thinks of our work and us)

My friend, Ivan came up with his idea of using cookies and Milo (A type of choco-malt drink) for one of our earlier assignments called Jack & Jill
[We were suppose to create a visual image using the nursery rhyme, Jack & Jill . Pretending that the story has no visual imagery originally and we're suppose to fit it in ourselves with our own original images. By not using 'true human' features for the character's body, etc. etc.]

I found his amusing but very rushed (You can tell, the pictures were quite blury, plus... there's not much work needed in it anyways...)
He snapped 6 pictures, according to the nursery rhyme :

Jack And Jill,
Went Up The Hill,
To Fetch A Pail Of Water,
Jack Fell Down,
And Broke His Crown,
And Jill Came Tumbling After

Our GD lecturer, told him.. that he was not designer, he didn't give a reason why..

Then came my other friend's turn. I felt she was really good at using traditional medias (Brush, paint, acrylics, etc.) Her work was splendid to my eyes, I really liked it, she used acrylics, so you can imagine, there's some 'texture' to her work.

That lecturer A.K.A French Fries, said she was not designer too.... With no god-damn reason O_O;;

Then came my turn..... He told me... that he liked how I illustrated all this, he likes all my drawings and sketches cause they are fine and quick. But then... he said
"But... looking at you and your work... I don't get it.. it's not you. I mean, look at yourself... you showed me your mature look....You showed me your confidence... You showed me you can speak very well.... you also showed me your 'lansi' ('Lansi' means being arrogant in Chinese... Which I have never been !!)... I don't know... I just don't like you being around me . You're not designer"

I mean... WTF?! Pause and rewind !! He said I was not designer because my work is not good.... or is it because he doesn't like me?! I mean double-WTF !
I don't get him... All I know... Every individual has their own opinion on my work...
Lots of my friends said that my work was cute (Some even suddenly stopped in their tracks and stood next to me saying "Wah !! Ho Ke Ai~" (Direct translate from Chinese "Wah !! So cute/How Cute" =_=;;;

...He did also mention 'You showed me your mature look' ... So at that point.. I wondered, is it because it looks kiddy?? ..... When I looked at other people's work... I saw some even more 'cute and kiddy' ones =_=;;;


5th October 2007
My mom misunderstood me, jumped the conclusion, said something she shouldn't say, scolded me, had an argue with me, I ended up having no mood to eat dinner and went hungry overnight =_=;;;
6th October 2007 [Today] - In conjunction with 5th October I guess?
My mom made another mistake, jumped the conclusion and made a comment. Dad corrected her. =_=;;; Me weird family in action.... *sigh*
