I've only slept that two hours in the past 48 hours.
Isn't life so sweet? The only thing keeping me awake is stress and food.
It's no wonder why I'm so fat these days.
I still need to do my axonometric, my 5 perspectives, my two elevations, two sections and the trees for my model.
I swear to God, I'm this close to death.
Urgh, I have no cotton for trees. Gah. I'm just gonna tear up the dish washing thing and stick it to the branches.
Installing the full version of SketchUp now to aid in my exterior perspective drawings.
I don't want to do interior perspective! I hate drawing that shit!
Oh, mine was a 6.. this version is a 7. Even the man looks better.

And everytime I see it, I think "No shit, right?"
It's as if people take it thinking it's candy with acid-ish qualities or something.
Napoleon Dynamite is good shit cause I just stare at all one hour and thirty minutes of the show with the same expression as Napoleon cause I'm just too dumbfounded each time I watch it.
I'm rushing my model. Had to re-do.
Hopefully, I don't rush till it looks like shit.
Still have my presentation boards, perspective, sections, elevations and floor plans to draw.
I hope my model's done by tomorrow. Then, I can focus on my presentation through the weekend and on Monday.
I'm dying for ice-cream.
I need a fake head. My wig is lying flat in my cupboard.

My siblings seem to find it enjoyably funny.
The first one tried it on.
The second one tried it on.
I tried it one.
Even the fourth one tried it on.
Everyone laughs.
But it's a nice wig.
It has come to my attention that I've been collecting very funny items for the past few years.
Top hat.
Pink wig.
5-inch platform knee high laced up boots.
The infamous pants.
The yet-to-be-seen shirt.
My many ties.
My shocking pink tights.
What will it be next?
I'm just in my wig.
And my stuff are just scattered everywhere behind me.
Just like my nerves are these days.
I'm now depressed and miserable again.
The wig was not enough.
I just feel like whatever I do, it's never enough and I'm sick to death of it.
I love Kinokuniya.
The moment you walk in, the smell of books just waft over and if you're a book-smell lover like SJ and I, you'll love it.
I love spending weekend afternoons in Kinokuniya.
Just sitting there and reading.
If I could afford it, you'll find me there every afternoon.

Are you a misanthrope?
I feel as though I've been restricted. I feel suffocated which is the first for this situation. I've always believed in total freedom and I hate conforming to 'process' or 'rules'.. with logic of course.
So when someone tells me to 'change my style because I'm not following process', well, that just sets me off.
Firstly, the 'ground rules' that were set early on did not allow much.. and apparently, this is a case of misinforming someone or miscommunication.. whichever.
Secondly, the information given and the limitations or restrictions were too restricting due to the miscommunication.
Thirdly, you do not judge somebody's 'style' based on just this one thing. You do not tell somebody she'll be a 'failure'.
Fourthly, do not bring your moods into your work.
That's all.
I am generally a person who avoids arguments. I would be frustrated or disgruntled but I won't announce my lack of satisfaction to the masses. I like to show the coolness of a cucumber but when I don't say anything back, it does not give you the right to go on and completely put a person down. It may have seemed like a very gentle piece of advice but one person's touch may be another's punch. And it's safe to say that I, now, am NOT a very happy person.
And another thing, I've always worked this way and up till you pranced along, no one had a problem but you know, whatever. Apparently, in life you have to conform. I have to bow to the bitch that is conformity.
Finally going out tomorrow for some R 'n' R with SJ.
We're hitting the city.
I want my wig and she wants books.

I dream of rain
I was so shocked I had no idea what to say.
Except that I was happy for her. Though, I really did not know what to feel and think.
Then, I told my Mum and my Mum started talking about the worst situations that she could get herself into and I actually cried. The thought of it was depressing.
I just pray to God that everything works out for the better and that she isn't being taken for a fool because she's not a fool, just naive.
I don't know if anybody understands why I feel this way about it but she's just one of those few friends that I really care about and I see her as almost a younger sister and if anything bad were to happen, I'd just feel horrible.
Besides that early morning phone call, nothing much happened.
Had a double Prof. and Tech. Studies lecture to make up for my lecturer's absence last week. That's double the boredom.
Lord, I feel like handing my lecturer a few brochures for English classes. I'm sorry! I tried NOT being my usually nitpicky self about language but I can't study when I'm being so distracted by the constant errors.
Then, I had AutoCAD class. Learned how to insert block furniture. Nice nice. I put a nice huge swimming pool in my plan's backyard and once again my tutor shocked me from behind by exclaiming "Whoa! Look at Lydia... She has such a huge swimming pool!". I actually drew my hands close to my chest and looked at her like this o_o.
The last time this happened was when she snuck up on me and said in her Ju-On voice "Lydia... Any problems?"
She's quite the strange duck but I like her.
Yes, Vinushka is nice. Yum.
Mosquitoes just bit me on my chin. Erk.
I was in my Mum's bathroom and I saw this two mosquitoes flying in front of me... attached. I thought "Holy Moly, mating bugs!" so I squished them together. Usually, I'd let them have their fun but after living a few weeks with the never ending flow of mosquito traffic finding their way into my house I don't want more. So I squished.
Aaaaah... Is it strange that I feel strongly about the ongoing situation? More than I felt when I broke up? Like this isn't blind sadness.. It's just downright misery.
I don't want her going to a place she's never even heard of (Though, I have).
Is it selfish to say that I don't really want her to go because I don't want to NOT be able to see her? That's not the full reason, though.. just half the reason.
It's not as though I've always met her often, we talk once every two months for hours on end but at least I know she was safely at home. This time, Lord knows what can happen and I'm trying really hard to see a good side to this but I don't see any! And I know she wants me to be happy cause she is but I need to know if this is what she REALLY wants and I really want to tell her that if she has any doubts, any at all, she shouldn't go on with it.
I've always tried to steer her clear of any problems in the past but that was mistakes that could've been done and corrected.. This time, there's no such luck. It won't be easy to fix if this is a mistake.
What were her parents thinking?!
Shit, my Mum's words are worming their way into my head again.
Argh! I'm surrounded by pessimistic people... but pessimistic with a reason! I've never been more worried in my life.
I hope things will change.
She's coming down end of December for two weeks... I hope I have a chance to talk to her then but I don't want to say anything that will hurt her... ARGH! This is such a shitty situation! I NEVER thought I'll have to go through this.

It's now at 2:56.. Mine was 3:05!
Argh!
Speaking of 'argh' things... some brainless numbskull scraped my car today on the way to college. I'm telling you , screwballs with modified cars and spiked hair should never be allowed to roam freely. They should be caged. Kept away from people who ACTUALLY want to arrive at their destinations scrape free.
Stupid fxcker couldn't figure out whether his car could fit between my car and the side so he decided to just floor the accelerator and squeeze his way through... and just drove off!
I was cursing like tomorrow will never come and when the traffic slowed down, I slowed down next to him, beeped my horn, and yelled 'LEARN TO DRIVE, FUCKHEAD!' out of my lowered window (And I know he must've heard cause the few cars next to me stared at me strangely). I was about to get out of my car and kick his but the traffic started and I was in the middle of the road so I just flashed my middle finger and drove off.
Good thing I can yell nice and loud.
And if our accident was a business deal, he got the worst end of it. My car only suffered a 3cm long scratch.. I reckon his was worst off.
BDL 8885, you are a fucktart. Go back to your driving school, I think they made a mistake. And if you are under the impression that your car is the coolest thing to roam the streets, think again. Looks like crap.. just like you.
Then, I was complaining to RayRay about it and said "And he was driving so fucking fast..." and RayRay replied with "How sure are you he fucks fast?" and there was a moment of silence between Claireeey and I and I said "That would be 'fast fucking' but I said 'fucking fast'....".
Even Claireeey thought there was something wrong with RayRay.
There's something very wrong with the Nana movie.
For one thing, Mika Nakashima can't seem to act very well...
Number two, why was Hachi so happy when she found out that Room 707 was going for 70,000 yen and said "nana" with the biggest smile? In the manga, she was raving on and on about the 'daimaou' and how it was such bad luck that everything was seven.
Then, when they were both checking out the apartment, Hachi was there first? It was supposed to be the other way round, with Hachi opening to door to see Nana standing there. (And Yokoi was ugly in the movie) And Yasu wasn't there when Nana was checking out the apartment.. and when Hachi said that her boyfriend will break up with her unless she finds an apartment, Nana got all sympathetic and told Yokoi off for saying that there were more important things.
I like the manga better... :)
And this goes out to SJ - Ren is ugly.
Kyousuke in the movie is quite cute, though.. Cuter than, say, Takumi.
I need to find something new to watch :S
Tuesday, November 18, 2008
Hallelujah!
I am exhausted!
I didn't sleep last night.
Ate tuna and built models for the entire night and finally went to class.. came home and just crashed.
Urgh!
I now remember what college is like.
Forgot for awhile after the 5 months. Have been refreshed in a very cruel way.
HAHAHAHAHA!!
Negishi wants to tear the fella's ass with his own shiitake!
I wonder if the shiitake was meant as a pun.
Lol lol!
This anime is damn good shit.
Okay, bye too distracted to continue blogging.
[EDIT: I don't think I was the only tired and sleepy one today. Venetia was the ultimate stoner...]
Useful :)
I got the Yoshitaka Amano art book for Vampire Hunter D from my sister and her friend!!
:D :D :D
I was so happy I ditched my work aside for awhile.
I'll snap a picture and post it soon.
Anyway, I'm on my break now.
Will blog when I'm not dead and tired.
Sunday, November 16, 2008
Nee On called not long later saying that he was near (he picked me up).
Rushed through everything else, rushed down, grabbed my shoes, keys and rushed out into his car and we actually made it there on time :D
Dim Sum was awesome (Nut, new place for Dim Sum and there's SO MUCH more choices).. Unfortunately, I was conked out.
Spent the night trying to do my AutoCAD thing and my model.
Slept at 5AM which is why I woke up late.
Anyway, after brunch I heard somebody say "Donna ega o mitai desu ka?"
And turns out, some of them suggested watching a movie but as only four people wanted to.. we all decided to have a coffee before they go watch the movie.
So everybody moved on to 1Utama and found ourselves in Starbucks.
Drank the Dark Cherry Mocha Frappucino.. da-yum!
Talked a whole lot.. then, after Nee On and two other classmates went home, we brought sensei to the shop that sold Japanese food. She bought some really yummy rice biscuits and gave us two each. Double yum!
Then, my Mum arrived in 1Utama and I rushed off to meet her... but I stopped along the way to say a very loud and noisy hello to Jessica. (For example... "HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!")
Met my Mum. Stocked up on vanity items (Clinique) and I got a pair of shoes! :D :D
My grandma is THIS close to throwing out ALL my shoes.
Mum bought this really awesome 3-inch stilleto heel. She said "It's dangerous for me to wear this...." then the sales lady asked "So, is it okay, ma'am?" and she smiled at her and nodded her head... which meant she's gonna buy it.
But, it's awesome. Too bad my Mum is a size smaller than me.
I had fun today but then I came home to my 1/3 done model and nearly died again.
I forgot to visit the art shop and buy that square sticks for my pillars. (!!!)
Which means, I have to do it tomorrow.
Which means, I'll have stairs, floor, exterior structure, and shit but I won't have the thing that's supposed to hold these shit up.
I'm screwed over.
Thank the Lord we only need ONE model.
But, I reckon, tomorrow, I'll go to school and she'll tell me that I'm either behind time or I'm not focusing well or I haven't developed well enough.
How much you wanna bet? I'll even throw Ivan in (on second thought.....)
Saturday, November 15, 2008
I know what I want, and I can imagine it but I do have a problem trying to materialize my imaginations...
Is it possible to have a glass exterior but your interior floors are made out of reinforced concrete? (These questions are to my fellow classmates)... Does anyone remember what Starhill looked like?
Okay, a song just came on and it's not playing in my Winamp or my Windows Media Player. Where the hell is it coming from??????
Where where where??
The computer is such a mystery to me sometimes!
And I don't wanna hear this song! I wanna watch my movie!!! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is aggravating as hell.
I'm taking a break. My brain needs some resting.
Have you seen my blob? (meaning my model)
I'm not very worried about the model.. I'm more worried about my drawings. The axonometric, the perspective, the sections, elevations etc. What in the name of ducks was I thinking??
Oh great, the song stopped.
If you were to wrestle me into a pair of those skinny jeans, it'll only take you .1 of a second to take a look and wrestle me back outta them. I just don't have the 'legs' to pull of the look but yet, everywhere I look men are wearing skinny jeans more than they should.
And everybody says my jeans are skinny (ie. my Mum) but it's not. I particularly remember buying 'straight cut' not skinny.
I don't do skinny cause I'm not skinny.
Was able to sleep till noon today cause my Prof. and Tech. Studies lecturer is out of town hence, no lecture :D
I only had my AutoCAD class.
And something really freaky happened.. while I was experimenting with all the different dimension tools, my tutor snuck up behind me and in this really scary Ju-On-type voice said "Lydia.. Are you okay?".
I swear, if I wasn't so preoccupied with my dimensioning, I would've screamed and I don't do this screaming shit.
Thankfully, I saved myself the embarassment and said, really cooly might I add, "Oh yeah, I'm fine. It may not look like much but I'm doing fine".
And she said something that shocked me, "Oh, cause you are really quiet today so I thought you might be having trouble".
How can I be more quiet today than usual??
I don't talk in AutoCAD class cause I don't have any friends there (And Thingy the Queen Bitch sits too far away for me to bug). What in the name of all that's unholy does she mean by 'quiet today'?
And of all days, Thingy was sitting near me and I was bugging him but yet, I'm quieter than usual?
Does not make any sense to me.
But, I'm getting the hang of this AutoCAD shit.. Only problem is, the toolbar just quit on me. Poof, disappeared. I cannot find it and layering is becoming a bitch.
I need to start on my development model and my portfolio. Argh!
Friday, November 14, 2008
Anyway, updates!
- I am still watching Detroit Metal City cause it's the funniest shit ever.
- I'm not saving as I should be cause I just bought Ayakashi yesterday.
- I'm beyond my eyeballs with thinking and sketching for my development model.
- I might strangle some cabbage soon.
- I need to party.
- Johnny Depp is staring at me from the DVD cover of Finding Neverland. I cry to that show.
- He is so hot.
- Finally installed AutoCAD (Thanks, Claireeey) and I'm a screwball at it.
- Ivan now speaks to me in Japanese.
- I crave a nice good cocktail.
- I want the opening song for DMC.
- I feel like eating biscuits.
- Spidey is trying to shoot some web at me :S
That is my life at the moment.
How SAD can it be? Even Spidey's trying to end it fast.
Watched Max Payne with SJ on Wednesday.
Nee On was right, it does rock.
BUT, if you don't play the game and don't get the symbolic shit in it, it WILL be shit to you.
I hate people that don't get the symbolic shit in movies, it's like how everybody raved on and on about how great V for Vendetta is and then said "I don't understand it".
It's annoying and very disappointing.
When I wrote "I crave a nice good cocktail" I remembered SJ during New Year's Eve when she thought the waiter was really cute so she flagged him down to take our orders and I dared her to say "Give me a Sex on the Beach and an Orgasm... and make it hard". I even told her I'd give her 10 bucks and all the other girls agreed but YET she lost her guts when he came over.
Oh well, taking a closer look, he wasn't ALL that cute, anyway.

Tuesday, November 11, 2008
The only problem with having different tutors for every term is you're never sure what they want the first time round. First projects are always a failure.
And the problem with being the first person to present, you can't learn from another's mistakes. I wish I wasn't the first. Yeeesh.
The thing about always failing is you go from frustration, to giving up, to being motivated, to giving up again. LOL!
Oh well, I chose my blobby sketch model. Now, I need to relate the interior to the exterior
Sometimes I think maybe I should just do like everybody and re-use my concepts only in different words and stop trying to challenge myself to do something different everytime. Maybe then, I won't have as much shit.
I have tried fusing old Hollywood sex appeal with industrial metal music once... another time I tried to use art progression as a source of intimidation, and then there was the infamous pina colada... hahahahahaha... while I find it fun to always be experimenting, my marks do not agree too much so I suppose I should stop experimenting but I always thought that was what college was all about.
Ah, who gives two shits, I will keep experimenting.
(I was honestly surprised I scored at least a C in my first year... I must have or I wouldn't have gotten my next PTPTN loan..)
Aaaaaah, The Final gives me the shivers.
I was hoping for a little R'n'R tonight but I need to get started on my portfolio and also I need to download AutoCAD or install it...or whatever it takes to GET that damn programme in my computer. Who has the programme?
Not to mention, I need to start sketching and sketching for my next tutorial session.
And also I need to start practicing my AutoCAD skills.
I'd give anything for my 5 months holiday again and I wouldn't complain this time round.
I'm still wondering what to put for my portfolio. Did she mention a minimum amount of projects to put in??
My gallery project is definitely going in (It's the only one I'm kinda okay with)...
Along with the deconstructivisim one in Central Park (If I still have the pictures)...
Sitting there today for two hours waiting for the presentation (which nobody was listening to) to be over and re-reading the 'When Art Meets Space' (and vice versa) book, I realised that I'd like very much to do exhibition designs.. I think it'll be fun..
One thing I won't be doing is decorating a stupid house.
I wonder why everybody's response to me saying 'I'm studying interior design' is 'Oh! Then you can do my house next time :D'. It's interior design not interior decoration. Know the difference.
Monday, November 10, 2008
I hate preparing presentation boards.
Urgh! Especially when we're not even done yet... it's ONLY a presentation board for our sketch models.. which I'm half way through only my second.. the first one took the entire day.. so much for sketch.
Yeeesh, now I gotta print out my building programme and criteria matrix and all the other shit.
Ah, shit.

Welcome to the heartbreak hotel...
I found a top hat and caved...
But it's pretty...
SJ now has a hat for her role as the Mad Hatter in our photoshoot, Nut!
That also means that I have to save, save, save from now!
I also saw NANA... the anime (God forbid, I buy the SECOND movie!) and caved. Hmm, I might watch it while completing my floor plans and sketch models tonight.
I have another pin-up presentation on Tuesday!!!!!
Enough with the neverending presentations already!
I love talking but I hate talking while pointing at a board.
:D
I would take a picture and show you but my phone died on me.. apparently, I did not charge it last night but I clearly remember plugging the bugger in.
Nooo~ The battery better not die on me NOW.
(There's actually nothing wrong with 'now' but I thought that an emphasis should be put on the word just because it usually happens that way)
It just better not die.
Why's Facebook asking me if I would translate their page for them?
They're the ones with the money, why make us do their job?
For those people who volunteered.. I hope they are paying you or it would be considered free labour and you people would've been the stupid ones.
Have I ever mentioned how much I absolutely adore his work?
ALOT!!
I'd like to tap that brain and see what goes on in there. Maybe lobotomy would do me some good here... but that's an illegal medical practice, right? Lobotomizing someone seems like a really funky thing to do.
I really like his work for Rampo. Especially, the picture I posted yesterday of the jester's head. Yum!
My favourite from 'The Tale of Genji'. I reckon this is Wakamurasaki when Genji first met her.I may be in love with Genji.. who is an early 11th century fictional prince created by a noblewoman. Not only is he fictional, he would also be dead if he was real but I'm so in love with him. Even though it was very mean of him to sleep with his stepmother and make her pregnant and it was very mean of him to raise Wakamurasaki and make her his ideal woman only to marry ANOTHER woman while married to her... I still really like the psychology behind the character.
It's like he tries and tries but never finds it! I hurt for him!
Of course, I will only speak more when I've read the original ancient Japanese text and not the many translated version but that'll take many years and I must speak of it NOW.
If only Elvis didn't die :(

I'm sick of modern design.
I'm fed up with corporate cool.
I can't stand 'interior design.'
I hate those designer guys - I love 'em - but I detest that fabricated, artificial, managed, art-directed look.
I can't bear to see one more 'continuous surface.'
I've had it with perfection.
I hate the clean lines.
No more computer aided design.
Down with colour consultants.
Down with advertising. Down with PR.
Turn off TV.
Down with minimalism - we want maximalism.
Down with reduction - we want more! more! more!
Wealth?
Wealth is time.
Wealth is children.
Wealth is love.
Wealth is ideas, incention, exploration.
Wealth is books.
Wealth is collaboration, colleagues, friends, working together.
We're sick of the fake and phony.
We want it real.
Forget bandwidth.
We don't need a get-away, we need a get-to.
- When Space Meets Art
This Bruce Mau dude is fxcking awesome and I'm not just saying that because I like what he said about his studio design called 'What Makes You Wealthy'.. I really liked that design.
The other one is Tokujin Yoshioka. Number one, I hope Tokujin is his surname or that'd be a really weird first name. Number two, his design for Lexus, Peugeot, Toyota AND the National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation is good shit and I mean that in the best possible way.
I just love how he captures the essence of the brand (and the subject for the museum).
I sounded like an advertisement up there :S
Maybe I'm in the wrong line.
I like this book I'm reading now. I may try to find it and buy the real thing.
Anyway, today was another day in KLCC only this time with my Mum. Spent half the time in Kinokuniya (Japanese section) .. me in the manga, music, magazine, fashion shelves and my Mum at the handicraft, sewing etc. shelves. We just stood there for a long time.
Bought this month's Kera and is pleased to know that it's filled with h.Naoto. It gets quite funny when I spot some people I know in the Street Snap section. Nice. Anyway, good thing it wasn't filled with pink and sweet lolita crap like last month. Erk. I would've murdered myself.. AGAIN.
(There is silver acrylic on my t-shirt sleeve... ick)
If I ever get lost in Tokyo like I did when I was in Tokyo, I wouldn't lurk around the Christmas tree waiting for my parents, I would take a cab, insist he drop me off in Shibuya or Harajuku and go on a shopping spree. h.Naoto, SexPotRevenge, Hell Cat Punks, Sexy Dynamite London... Aaaah, I salivate thinking of them.
Hm, I wonder if I can buy stuff online... I only know we can buy SexPotRevenge and Double Decker shoes..
Getting lost in Tokyo, erk, do not remind my parents about it. They get very emotional and freaked out. Well, it WAS Disneyland.. maybe they were afraid that Mickey IS a paedophilic walking rat who will decide to kidnap me. There must be a reason why he's always so happy around children. (Barney is a paedophile on acid and Teletubbies are just alien asylum runaways in costume)

Very traumatising dinner
And then Mum decided to remind me how I first learned that the male anatomy is very different from the female's.. the traumatising part is my brother knows and I don't even remember a single shit?
Apparently, and I am relating this word for word, in kindergarten the bathroom in that building was unisex. They saw it fit to shove a whole lotta 3 year olds (Yes, I pestered my parents to enroll me for kindergarten when I was 3) into the same bathroom with absolutely no partition and they did not predict that it will completely ruin our innocence?
As I remember, we had fixed times to go to the loo and everybody would line up in front of the toilet (one for boys and one for girls)... and it was an just an ordinary loo break until my 3 year old eyes decided to venture to the other side of the room and saw the boys.
And I came home and announced to my Dad that "Boys have sticks".
Seriously, how does my brother know this and I don't considering he wasn't even BORN then.
I know my Dad teases me alot about the 'sticks' but I never knew how I found out.
And my Mum laughed so hard... It's nice to know that I unconsciously amuse my family.
Way to spoil a great night, bro.
On a more frustrating note, it appears that my germs have done me no good again.
Due to my ongoing flu (Yeap, it's not gone yet), I missed two AutoCAD classes and now I'm completely lost. Thank God, I managed to keep myself afloat today though I was lost quite a few times but I still managed to complete the tasks given.
Nut brought me to a little shop in Aman Suria for lunch today. We had three hours for lunch and were once again stumped as to where we were to have lunch and she said "I know a place in Aman Suria that has damn good char siew rice" and I said "Lead the way".
So we went there, she ate for two people and I ate for one and when we were done we headed to 1Utama.. (I should get paid for the amount of times the name appears on my blog..) to walk around and I found the two most adorable (and probably most expensive) jackets. One's mustard yellow and short (RM299) and the other one is white and long, and this is the most amazing part, it actually hides me huge ass!! (RM599)
I'll most likely never get it though. If I have 600 bucks to spend on a jacket, I'll save up another 700 bucks for my PS3.
Which WILL come into my life, eventually.
And when it does, do not expect me to step out of the house EVER.
I'm looking for a book by a French author called 'Lolita' or something along those lines.
I've read some reviews for it awhile ago and it seemed pretty interesting.
Oh well, keep looking. I haven't read The Graveyard Book in awhile. Will get back to it..
It's getting pretty good.
Okay, gotta go. Blogging, watching movies and chatting with Michelle about dating... is too much to handle. My limit is doing two things at a go... nothing more than that cause my brain will combust.

Foam is shit impossible to fold
We had to rip-off (or 'recreate' according to me lecturer) a picture of a concept model.
Because I brought foam I was put with the other two guys who brought foam to 'recreate' the foam version of the concept model.
Funnily enough, the first piece of foam I picked up was PINK and the foam that the other guy started cutting from was PURPLE. Our concept model looked like a little girl's idea of building a tunnel. It took all my strength to not shout out "I HATE PINK!".
Aggravating as hell.. it felt good cutting and slicing and folding that damn pink foam.
BUT, it was impossible to fold. And it's super wobbly. Not even UHU glue can hold that piece of pink shit down.
After all that glue-ing and folding and cutting, my lecturer announced "15 more minutes!" and we were like "WTF?" cause we hadn't started on the sketch model (we were only given 30 minutes to do it) so we decided to sketch it instead. The purple foam guy looked like he had some clue as to what he wanted a sketch model to look like so I told him to sketch.
He sketched away and halfway through I asked him,
"What're you sketching?"
And he said,
"No idea. Just sketching to see if something comes up"
I refrained from saying,
"What the gracious duck?"
Then my lecturer told us time was up and I told him,
"We can forget it now"
And almost immediately, he chucked the sketchbook and the pencil aside and grabbed on to his bag and got up to leave.

Class wasn't even over yet.
Finally, class was over and Nut had to COD with somebody in Bangsar so lunch was in Bangsar for today.
Nut's little blogshop brings me all over the city for lunch.
We ate at Pelita and then went to Elo (as usual) and then threaded our eyebrows (mine ain't furry no more!).
I decided to stick some motivation in my sketchbook just now while trying to sketch my ideas for Friday.
I stuck Toshiya on the inside corner of my sketchbook cover.
A picture of him, not him.
Oh, speaking of Toshiya... Nut asked me what my Dad will say if I bring Toshiya or someone who has hair like Toshiya (the current one).
I said that my Dad will tell me to either bring home someone with hair or NO hair at all... he won't stand any in betweens.
But, I reckon any guy that I bring home will have my Dad on his toes and worried.
[Sorry to interrupt myself but YIPPEE!!! This month's GiG's has Glass Skin's score!! HALLELUJAH!!!!! I wanna play!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]
So yeah, my Dad has always complained about the guys that I show him saying "Isn't he so hot, Dad?". Either that or he can't stand his youngest daughter even thinking that any guy is hot.
But I know the rule with my Dad.. No facial hair, no long hair, no tattoos, no short guys, no ugly guys, no younger guys, no guy without a degree, no piercings etc.
I've gotten the lecture more than once.
Yeeesh! It happened AGAIN! Uroboros got leaked!
WTF? Where's the fun in waiting??
Why do people leak shit like this??
I wonder if my Dad will help me buy Uroboros online...
He DID offer to buy any CD I wanted :D
I'm reading this girl's review of the album and maaaaan, the album sounds so GOOD! (Well, apparently the intro track is nothing impressive but I really wanna listen to this particular song cause Toshiya slaps his bass :D)
And I wanna hear the mandolin~ Mandolin... sounds like mandarin.. mandolinmandarin.. say that real fast three times!
SJ, apparently, she said, that one song is a screamo version of ASOM (the maggot song, yo).. how do you screamo-ise ASOM? Wasn't that song quite a scream itself already?
"The only remarkable thing about this song is the middle of the song when Toshiya
+ Shinya carry the song"
Yay! This makes me a happy girl cause it reminds me of one particular song... which I've forgotten but I love.. Hmmm...
First time I'm actually reading a review.. usually I couldn't be bothered with what other people think of music but I guess it's because I'm beside myself with excitement waiting for this damn album to be released.
By the way, for those who are actually interested in knowing what an Uroboros is... it's the picture of the dragon eating its own tail in a circle...

Something like that. Will make a good tattoo.. Hm..
Hehehe...I haven't heard Schwarz Stein's Transient, AnCafe's Candyholic, Alice Nine's Nine Heads Rodeo Show and Glay's Biri Biri Crashmen in so long... memories.
Candyholic is still so cute and fun to listen to now. Wanna dance along with Miku.
Oooh, and The Candy Spooky Theater! I still remember doing a project for english class in F5 to this song.. all night. Puts you into some sorta state of mind.

Thank God I do not intend on becoming a singer because my throat will never give me peace
Yeeesh, my tutor did not say anything about concept models for tomorrow.. I guess I'll just make some. Guess what my concept is? Static. Yeeesh. Sometimes, I hate my bright ideas. Brings me loads of trouble. How the HECK am I supposed to show static in my concept models besides making them stiff.
"Has anybody seen my girl?"
"Yes! She was delicious"
- conversation between two 'monsters'
I couldn't sleep for the entire night. Well, I did sleep for about two hours or so but I very quickly woke up to me coughing. I think it was the air conditioning in my face that caused my throat to act up so I grabbed Ivan and Bolster and went downstairs to sleep but still couldn't sleep cause my throat was still giving me problem. And of ALL times, it had to be last night that my Astro got cut due to delayed payment. T_T I was stuck reading The Graveyard Book in the middle of the night. Which is good shit by the way, SJ.
Anyway, by the time my imagination got the better of me it was already 4:30AM and I could hear my Dad's morning ritual of random throat clearing in the bathroom so I figured I should go get ready.
We sent my Dad off at the airport and then came home. Sent my brother to school and then came home and I ate breakfast (I barely eat breakfast but I had to take medication this time).
Then, I watched TV in the basement before going to sleep, finally.
Wrapped a towel round my neck to keep it warm.. it works, I suppose. Though, I was so afraid I'll strangle myself in my sleep. Shit happens. Don't say it's impossible. Why'd I take the chance?
Anyway, here I am... still alive
Nut, if you're reading this, bring your AutoCAD notes tomorrow for me to copy!
I've got Japanese class tonight. Urgh! My throat is gonna be exposed to the vicious air conditioning! I'm considering bringing a scarf.. but that'll break my NO SNOW NO SCARVES rule. Maybe I'll just keep this Good Morning towel wrapped around my neck :S That will just give my classmates MORE reasons to say I'm weird. Yeeesh.
And I'm off to start sketching to make my sketchbook look more artistic and to make ME look more hardworking and artistic.
How do you sketch static?!?!
ARGH!

Too many e-mails... I hate forwarded e-mails... Curses
(imagine me saying that in classic 'The Scream' style)
I am so sick of blocked noses, giddy heads, unstable legs, sore throats and achy stomaches!
On Tuesday, I went to see the doctor about my stomach problems, yeah? Then, on Thursday, I went to see a doctor AGAIN about a sore throat.
Gaaaaaaah~ (again)
The doctor saw me and said "Didn't I just see you two days ago?!" and I said "Yes". Then, he asked "The medicine didn't work?" and I replied "It did. It's a sore throat this time round". I think even HE is sick of seeing my face.
So, due to my sickness, I've spent many days just sleeping. My life is wasting away.
In fact, I think I've slept so much my shoulder is cramped.
I've never noticed Sex Pot Revenge has such nice shoes...
Oooh, Double Decker has a new version of the 305 Lace Up! It's called 305 Lace Up II. Okay, despite the lack of creativity in the name... it looks better than the first one.
Shit! I want shoes. Even the Covered Belt Triple Rubber Sole II looks nice...
(Yes, I'm looking through Kera now cause I'm bored).
[And not everybody looks cute in lolita costumes... erk]
Did you know that original Marilyn Manson CDs in Malaysia are censored?!
WHAT THE ....... ?!
The song 'This is the new shit' is censored. When he screams that line, it comes out sounding like "This is the new heeet"
HAHAHAHAHHA!
I nearly drove into a wall laughing.
It is very dangerous to listen to censored shit while driving.
They even censored Katy Perry... all because she sings about kissing a girl. What? Are they afraid we'll go around snogging girls after listening to the song?
While sitting on the couch today, I sensed some form of impending doom.
I do not know what form of doom but it's something that's doom-y.
And surprisingly, the first thought that came to my head was "What if I can never study my masters?".
Oh dear.
Oh dear.
Oh maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan~!!
Thinking about it is stressful. I've just always planned to study my masters without ever thinking otherwise.
To me, that's doom-y enough for me.
Or, what if Masayo decides to leave for the US? Does that mean I have to search for another singer?!
That woman better land her ass on KL soil this December or else.
Urgh. Need to blow my nose. Any more blowing of the nasal sort and I might end up with no nose.
