Some people think that being desperate to get something can be a great motivation to move on. In my point of view, it's not. Being desperate is pathetic. Most people lose their senses when they are desperate. And you wouldn't want to know what the others think about people who lose their senses. The answer is so true but so vicious.
I am not trying to turn people's hope down. You can hope for something. You can wish that your dream might come true someday. But, being so desperate to own something/someone is.... forlorn! And when the desperations turn into nothing, there comes the blames. See. Now it's not forlorn. It's hopeless.
My advice, keep dreaming like everyone does, but, don't be desperate. =)
I never halt people from doing the things they want.
All I do is just agreeing things that I pro and disagreeing things that I anti.
I guess everyone has their rights to be any kind of human they want for as long as it's not a crime. Well well. I admit that I dislike la-las and si-hams. (Malaysians, you know what I mean right?) But, I don't think it's right to anti them. Alarhh... They are just less fashion-conscious. What's a big deal about it right? Just let them be. The participation of hatred in this issue still sounds a little illogic to me. I won't bother to hate things that have nothing to do with me. My time is scheduled for better things rather than hating.
Wahaha.. See! I crap again. I just enjoy jotting down the bits and pieces in my mind.
No doubt. I had made my decision and opinion clear. So clear that all human being who understand Mandarin and English should understand. Maybe you're the exception because you just don't understand.
You wouldn't want to know how many personalities are there in me. There's only a single me physically, but there is an infinity divisions of me mentally. And, it will take you centuries to understand it. I never blame you for thinking that you actually have a chance. Maybe you think I am the typical girl that you see from Taiwan and Korean drama. No, I am not. If I were making a decision, I must have gone through a lot of considerations. I didn't decide a thing for nothing. Definitely I am firmed enough with my decision before I let you know about it.
One thing about me is, I'll never look back. Once I let it go, it's gone. And it will never come back. It's impossible for it to come back.Yes, I am mean! I admit that. But that's me. You have your right to love and to hate. But, I am trying to help you out. You are leading yourself into a situation that will not bring any good to you and me. There's no point keep holding it tight, so tight that even you yourself are being tied up by yourself. You said you understand about time and space. I say you don't. You are just saying it for the sake of saying. I am serious about this. You really gotta stop thinking that there might be a 0.000001% of chance. I just don't worth your precious time. I am moving on with my brand new life and I am doing so fine with it. Why do you have to stand still on the same point? Don't you move on? Can't you get a life? And most importantly is, can't you live for yourself? Why are you living for others? You own your life! Why do you let someone to take control of your own life? My gawd! By torturing yourself in this way makes you feel good, is it so?
Please. Please. Please. Wake up. Your mere hope is not going to bring you to anywhere. Let bygones be bygones. Okay? This is really really my last time making my words clear. If you still don't get it, I am speechless. Speechless as in... I really have nothing to say to you anymore. It's the end.

Hey there. Seriously sorry for the late update. Yikes yikes! I was too caught up with dramas, sewing activities and also outings. I will update about that in the coming post. Let me just talk about the shoe painting competition that I have participated last Sunday.
First of all, this competition is part of the events of the Malaysia Shoe Festival 2010. Contestants are from design colleges and universities such as Lim Kok Wing, KKTM, PJCAD, New Era, The One Academy, and some other colleges that I might missed out. There were about 110 contestants. The theme is Satu Malaysia. We were given 90 mins to complete our painting. Highlight: We, the contestants have to squeeze beside the stage and sit on the floor to paint our shoes. ("Cool" right?) After the competition was the catwalk show for the branded bling bling shoes. I have to say, we, the contestants are just nothing in the eye of the organizers. They were expecting us to clean our things up and move away from the stage side in less than 5 minutes time. Being rude enough, one came and shouted in a harsh tone, "Can you guys be faster? The whole world is waiting for you all." Hell yeah! If that catwalk show is that important, you should have started the competition earlier since you don't have any event on before the competition. What's the point of rushing in this way right?
Okay, okay. Let's continue about my design. So, my design was actually a stupid sketch that I did in a rush at 3 in the morning. I had to draw something that night no matter what as I had to show my lecturer at least a thing by the next morning. I don't know how I came to this lame idea, making the three dominant races into Siamese triplets. LMAO. Amazingly, my lecturer likes it. Okay. So I dumped my design at a corner for a few days without even put any effort on extending the ideas until Saturday arrived. Working under pressure, I finally came out with a proper design. Phewh! But, like I said in my previous posts, the chance of winning is mere. Counting the number of students who participated, every student(included me as well) has 1% of winning chance. See. I thought I was possibly unable to get Top 3. I was hoping for consolation actually. But, dang~ I can only say I am so blessed that my design is favored by the judges. Maybe the flowers (sewed on my shoe) are way too attractive. Muahaha.. I love the flowers! I never regret learning how to sew. Who knows how far sewing can bring me to. It already brought me to a great starting point and I bet the journey will be an endless one. =)
Not very awesome right? I think the design will look better if it's a vector art.
Bloom, bloom, bloommmmmmmm....
Wei Ting and I in the Exhibition Hall.
Deng deng deng deng! Look at my pale face. Didn't get to sleep well the night before.
Had a delicious desert at Gelatissimo, The Gardens. Yummy! Heavenly delicious.

Still mere?
Yeah. It still seemed to be a mere chance to me. But thanks to God, I manage to make it through.
=)
Photos will be uploaded tomorrow. ^^
It is a mere chance.
I grab it, and run with it to the end point.
Whether it's a win or a loss, what it matters most is I did put my effort to reach the end point.
AHHH... Miss Sunshine! PLEASE GO TO SLEEP!!

Can anyone tell me the ways to cure the affliction in me right now?

Myth #14: Designers don’t need General Education Classes
2 comments Posted by Unknown at Monday, March 29, 2010How is it that students expect to successfully create an 8-panel roll-fold brochure, or a complex tradeshow booth without math? And, if you ever expect to own your own business, those math skills are going to come in handy when you have to do your own estimates, billing and taxes. Writing and grammar skills may be the most underrated of the general education classes. I can’t imagine that any designer will manage to get through his or her career without doing at least a little copywriting, and without doing a whole lot of proofing. And, how will you ever make a convincing sales pitch or present a concept to a client without the skills you’ll acquire in speech class? Even the classes that seem completely out of the realm of design — science, history, and social study classes — will be vital to your career. As a designer, you have to be a chameleon — creating a website for the finance industry one day, and working on a brochure for the construction industry the next. EVERY one of those classes is going to be helpful to you in your career. Please don’t take them for granted. Extracted from: Creative OperaThere are so many students in design school loving their design courses, and barely scraping by in their math, English, and history classes — rolling their eyes, sketching during lectures, and ignoring their instructors. Why? Because somewhere along the line, the unfortunate and untrue news has spread that general education courses are unnecessary for designers. Not only are they necessary, they could make or break your career.
Whoops! Finally I have the "ohm" to update about my third semester in The One Academy. Hehe.. So, what's about this short semester? Here we go.
First of all, this is the semester I got into my major which is Advertising and Graphic Design. Well, the only thing that is uniquely different from other major is Computer Graphic Design 3 where the students are exposed to Adobe Indesign (A program for magazine publishing). It can be quite boring if you hate things being so organized. This subject is fine to me. But I bet I won't end up in a magazine publishing field in the future. It's not the thing I am really passionate about.
Then, we have Visual Communication where we are pushed to think. In my opinion, this subject is very psychological. Very. It's like playing with human's mind. We are assigned to bring out the message(any possible message) through visual graphics. It's really tough. The very common thing said for this subject is "what you understand does not equal to what others understand". Pek chek right? Bzzz....
We also have this very very interesting subject- Culture and Society in Malaysia. We had a hard time at first. But our lecturer, Marion was too awesome that you can't help but to concentrate in her class. I have already mentioned about her in my older post. So I won't touch much on this.
Next is Figure Studies 3. Hm.. Relaxing enough for me. All I need is just constantly drawing. Now I know how to draw multiple people in a piece of drawing. How amazing it that! =D
Then, we have this Language and Communication Skills 3-Drama. Fuhh!! This subject makes us sleepless+restless. But it's okay as at the same time, we had lotsa fun. Now I know how good actors act. It's really hard to forget everything about yourself and get into another character which may not be you at all. Trust me. IT'S HARD! Haha. And yeah. I gained a lot from this subject too, in the sense of time management, team work and creativity of course. See, we are given one week only to think of a story and act. And the drama has to be about 10-20 mins. Fiuyoh!! Thank god it's all over now. Heehee~~
The most torturous subject goes to....... Perspective studies!! I bet every single human being in my class agrees with this. Right, right? Pfthh... It's the subject that will make you feel like as though your brain are blended into cream due to extremum stress! But, but, but.... Okay lah! I still manage to do averagely good in this subject. So, IT'S OKAY! =D
Speaking about friendship, I am still very closely attached to my dearies- Fish cake and Wei Ting. And now I have Wei Shin and Sin Wei who are always in my group for group works. Many new classmates in the brand new class-AD0905-1. I got to know many of those that I don't know in the past. It's my pleasure to be in the same class with them. And not to forget my friends who are in other majors- Ah Liang, Wen Kang, Yu Jing,... (to many to be listed). I'm glad that we're still so close. Or I should say we are even closer now? Hehe!
That's all about this semester. Ahh.. So relaxing. ^^
Ah! So what's about the happy thing? Heehee. Well, I was just trying to spread my happiness to everyone.
Oh ya! People! I am extremely excited right now. I am going to join the shoe design competition in the coming Sunday at PWTC. Uhh... This will be my first competition for this year. I am not expecting much of course. Just wanna have fun especially when I am so damn free right now. It's really a big surprise receiving phone calls from my lecturer- Chow Ping. Thanks to Chow Ping for giving me such a chance. ^^
Aside from that, my mom brought me to fabric shop today. DAMN! I guess my over excitement shocked the workers of the fabric shop a little. *heehee* Those pretty fabrics really drove me crazy! Imagine you saw the same fabric selling at the price RM60/meter online is selling only at RM18/meter. For god sake! Btw, my mom was shocked by my reaction too. Haha! Sorry mummy!! I can't tahan myself but to buy buy buy. I finally bought my polka dots fabric and two more beautiful printed Japanese cotton fabric. I can't hide my smile anymore!!
People! Do you love my new blog face????? I love it so much. Simple and sweet. I have been seeking for something that I like for so so so so so so long. Finally I found something just perfect for me this aftie! I said goodbye to my previous blog face (sorry..) because the blog makes me feel very intense (I can't explain this). So, now I change it to something brighter. Hopefully my blog readers feel light and happy when reading my blog. ^_^
p/s: More sewing projects are coming up! But I am going to stop for this week. Gotta get prepared with my design competition stuff. ^^

What's taking my breath away? Damn. I just couldn't figure out how my life could end up as dramatic as this. Why would I have so many feelings mixed up like a bowl of rojak everyday? In the morning, I will be happy as I usually get to see my college friends in the morning. In the afternoon or evening, I will most probably be very down. Maybe because I will usually be sleepy at that time, or I don't feel like doing anything. I am just emo. =.=" When it is about midnight, HAHA! That's the time I will be fully awake and feel so energetic to do my stuff. Things just go on and on like this everyday. And you know what? Those ups and downs are the extreme ones. When I am down, I will be so so down that I feel like crying(for nothing?). And when I am excited, I can do anything crazy. Who cares it is in the middle of the night or what? =P
Well, recently, the interest to sewing is growing little by little( more and more). Gawd! Can you imagine that? It was so hard for me to stop sewing so that I can get into my bed. Yesterday night(almost morning) was a big torture for me. I didn't want to sleep cos I was in the progress of making something for my friend and I can't wait to give her as soon as I can. But, yikes! I am not that kind of people who can survive without sleep. I need at least 3-4 hours sleep. 0 hour of sleep will make me faint on the next day. =X So, I pushed myself to go to bed by 3 plus. But, I couldn't sleep! And the reason is I can't stop thinking about sewing. This is insane! If only I can love someone as crazy as that, my relationship life would be much better. (==)
Oh ya! I just joined a giveaway in one of my sister's friends'(Li Voon) blog click here. She does many sewing too. Do feel free to drop by her blog! You can join the giveaway too if you are a big fan of sewing too~ Even if you are not, you can join in and win it for me too. =D!!!
That's all for now. Might be updating my first handcraft tonight. See ya!!

To all Yasmin Ahmad's fans, ATTENTION!!
The most awaiting DVD -Muallaf is finally out in the market!! Yuhoo!! Can't help but to feel extremely excited. I got no money to buy it yet. (Spent too much on fabric. =.=) Let me wait for one more month first kay.
*drools*
Thick canvas is much more better compared to calico(almost same colour as thick canvas but it is much thinner). Many things can be sew by using thick canvas, eg., pencil case, book cover, wallet. Somehow I don't think I will make bags out of it as it is a bit hard. I would much prefer my bag with a soft cotton material which I can always have a nice hug of it. I was imagining thick canvas matching those Japanese printed fabric last night. I bet they will be good match huh. =D
Anyway, anyone who is interested to get those thick canvas can contact me by leaving comments or leaving a message in my chatbox. I can tell you where you can get those thick canvas with lower price. FYI, fabrics sold online are 30%-100% more expensive than the original price that you can get from the retail shop.

How many days to go? XD
SEW SEW SEW!

最近大家都累了。
大概是受了点影响, 自己也从累的阶段，跳去非常累的阶段。
可能是我的期待太大了。所以，当我得不到我所期待的，我难免会很失望。但是，每次重复提醒自己不能冲动做出任何决定。所以，我一直在等，等待着那个不懂会否出现的浪漫与感动。等啊等，等啊等，。。。我依然没有感动过。
我很累。每次的小小期待依然被毁灭。没有惊喜的日子实在很难过。难过到我想逃避。因为，逃避的时候，我反而找到更真实的我。
我不配爱，也不配被爱。
还记得那段刻骨铭心的感情。那时候的我，爱得天马行空。虽然最后那段感情并没有开花结果，但我不曾后悔曾经如此深爱一个人。
现在，我难过的是我找不回那种感觉了。也许是我的心麻了。或许是我厌倦了。也或许是我太任性了。
我还在等。。
等不下去时候，我就会放手了。
请原谅我的放纵与任性。

To learn how to sew with a sewing machine.. =D

Once, I read a book. It says that, every human must have something that they are obsessed of in order to live a happy life. At that time, I was blank. I couldn't think of anything that I am obsessed of. I only know I like something. But I didn't have anything that I am really crazy after. I carried on with my life, starting to search things that I am truly in love with.
As time passes by, I realized the little things about myself. Something like a discovery of myself. I found out that there are so many things I am obsessed of! And those things can make me excited the whole day. They make me happy and desperate at the same time. Most important, they inspire me! Inspirations come from the things that could give impact to ourselves. They doesn't have to be very relevant to the designs or drawings that we want to do. But as long as they make our blood rush in excitement in the body, we eventually have the passion to do something else. Here I am to share with my dear readers part of the things that I am so obsessed of recently.
SHOES!!! I scream when I see them!! XD!! They are all imported from Korea. I wonder how they make such beautiful shoes... AWWWW....
The coolest one! =D
Next is, ...............Fabrics!!!!!!!!! All made in Japan.
