I need to settle down

No internet access for the past few days. Got a little bit of issues with the router I think. Don’t know and don’t want to care. My emotion had gone up and down these few days. It i all because of the hectic time table I think. That’s all I can think of. Sometimes I feel very lazy and unmotivated to go to class.

FYI, I’m taking Quranic/Arabic Language this short-semester. 21 hours of class per week, plus extra-fast syllabus. I’m afraid I can’t catch up. For now, everything is still under control. Good thing is, all of this only last for 2 months and then I can escape from here and continue my degree. Not that it is fun, but at least something is different. Hope so. *unsure*

Well, a lot of problems seem to be coming to me. My handphone LCD broke down which forced me to repair it at last (there was a slight problem before but I just kind of ignore it and get used to it) and it cost me RM100. Not long after that, my laptop crashes and didn’t want to boot at all so I had to use the Recovery CD which clears my hard disk as good as new again. There goes my songs. Now I wonder what song to download again? Plus, I fell down and there is a small bruise on my arm right now. It itches.

I am still going to continue my blogging. I just need time to feel comfortable again and settle down with my study. Memorizing doesn’t really suit me. And suddenly I freaked out. Such a nerd. Heh.

In order to write this posts, I didn’t go to class this evening. Haha. No. I just didn’t feel like going. Is that a good reason? Oh, come on.

Studio 8

Yup. Introducing my studiomate. Now that our studio subject is over, it means there will be no class together (for some of us) anymore. Finishing drawings and models, finishing drawings and models, finishing drawings and models, that was what we do together. This picture were taken for the Annual Grand Dinner by the way, and I managed to snatch it from the photographer.

(p/s: WTF I had to re-do this post after a bullshit database revert last night. Don’t ask me why. I am wondering myself.)

Hi all! It’s been uh.. like 2 weeks already. I’m blogging in Perlis right now. When other people were crazy about the Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows release. But no worries, I already secured a copy thanks to Kerel. Hehe. About my campus life, classes had started for 2 weeks already. My timetable is quite ok la. Not that pack. Thank god I passed the Listening and Speaking test so I’m exempted from all English classes that require 9 contact hours a week throughout my study here. Whew. So lucky.

Gotta love the studio subjects. But the thing is they never forgot to rain us with lots of works and projects this past 2 weeks of our first class. It’s not like we, architecture students always do it the last minute, but the time is never enough for that much of works. I’m not complaining. In fact, I’m already aware of this thing about architecture. Not enough sleep is normal. So far, I’ve done two drawing exercises in Graphic Communication that is Drafting Lines and Rendering. Both require the use of pen and pencil. And using pen is the hardest bit. One mistake, and your life is miserable.

Come let me sketch your face.

For Environmental Design, it is all about generating your own ideas. Our first project was to design a masterpiece according to several principles of design and using only achromatic colours. Had to stay up till morning to finish that. Really mind challenging.

The only thing that sucks BIG TIME in this campus is the ‘mak guards’. Poyo sial. Argh not going to elaborate on that. Going back to KL tommorow. And pick up my Harry Potter book! yay! Eager to read it. Fuck there were already tons of spoilers out there. Even in Wikipedia they had concluded the whole plot of that book. It’s not there last night.

Nothing related to the entry. At ‘maple’ with Nash last week.

Classes begin next week

It’s weekend again. Means freedom for me. Haha. I think I can’t stand spending weekend in the campus.. Weekend outing still sucks. Like school kids. But other than that I think I’ve fitted myself into that place. This week it’s all about briefing. Course briefing, exam results, and registration. Now I know. You must have the initiative to look for yourself about something. No more annoucement making, asking you to go blabla. I mean, it’s like the trip to the notice board of our department must be included in our daily routine. Damn different from school. But I’m okay with that. As MRSM style was a bit like that la. Huu.

List of courses I have to take on the 1st semester;

Studio
Graphic Communication
Environmental Design 1

Non-Studio
Intro to Math & Statistics
Intro to Economics
Understanding Islam

..and maybe English if I fail the Listening and Speaking test.

The studio subject is the coolest. And the busiest. Haha. OK. Enjoy tommorow! Tata

Temporary Look

Hi there. I’m back in bussiness. As you can see, I’ve just registered into Center for Foundation Studies, IIUM last week. Taaruf week was very tiring. Eventhough I did skipped some of the activities. So far it is normal here, except for the fact that the rules were a bit like when I was in school hostel. Especially limited outing. Ugh. And formal attire to class. At first, I am a bit disturbed by this environment. Feel like giving up. But things goes easy on youday after day. I’m better now.

As far as I know, I’m going to study here, for foundation studies for 1 year only. There was some sort of test to determined whether you’re going to study for 1 or 2 years. And I qualified to sit for the paper 3 exam this Thursday which when I passed, I’m exempted from English class. Wish me luck.

As for the blog, you know that few days after I’m going here this blog was down for a while without any reason. And now it is okay with the help of Adam and Wizurai I think. But I still can’t access into my own FTP account. So this is the temporary look. There’s something wrong with the pages or permalink whatever. Can’t afford to think about that right now. I’ve just added the ads and such. Oh gotta go. Later.

p/s: I heard that my name was being brought up in an argument. ROFL.
