~ Can I Have A C for Chao Kuan? ~

ok its really like 3 days late but what the heck i'll blog this in anyways. Since i REALLY wanted to blog this back then. heh.

Thursday was project presentation day. The most part of our project was still not done by wednesday. COULD have been done one week ago but all the while we were waiting for the input from another member. That was the most crucial part and we waited one whole week. Then by monday, cindy and i decided it was too late and that we could not go on waiting anymore. Cos by monday yi shi was not in sch and was still unconatactable. So i did the measurements in photoshop and printed out on artcard on monday night and cindy finished the base by tuesday night.

So we agreed to meet up early on wednesday morning (which was conveniently a free day) to finish the project. Yi shi said she had some medical appointment at gleneagles? so ok, i told her to call us as soon as her appt was over and prolly go down to the sch as well.

but we didn hear from her the whole day. We worked from morning till afternoon till evening without hearing from yi shi at all! Finally, cindy got an sms from yi shi...

"hey can you send me the photos of the work online?"

WOW. never hear from you the whole day and you have the cheek to come and ask for photos. WIN LIAO LOR. we were so pissed la. Even other grps also came to ask wheres our third member. And they thought it was pretty unfair too. Basically the whole dam thing was finished between me and cindy. Well ok, yi shi did make half of the base by tuesday but it wasn exactly balanced? and its still just half of what she was suppose to have came up with.

i worked till 10+ 11pm on wednesday night before i went home. Ate my dinner, and continued working till 4.30 in the morning. Woke up at 7+ to go to sch to continue working on the thing again. So you can tell, i was pretty pissed when i was doing the things at home.

anyways heres a pic of what i did.



Supposed to be some toy model. I just bullshitted about how its a "baby's hanging mobile", that it "appeals to the visual aspect" whatever that means, and that the centre piece can spin given the right wind conditions(i've been told but i've not verified myself)

The base frame was what i was talking about earlier which was not suppose to be my part of the project. hah. The frame on top of the curve is formed entirely by individual 2x2x2 cm cubes. So YES it was HELL to stick those things together. And after so much work when you find that they wont hold up, it seriously just makes you dam sian. The middle horizontal beams were originally not there but were added due to a very unfortunate collapse. hah.

So that was how i spent my free day! haha. Quite happy that many people actually found my work interesting. Even during the making process i have had people come up to me and "wow. this looks really good! keep it up man!" kinda thing. haha. guess that really kept me going. heh. ALthough the end product was pretty messy cos we didn have alot of time to make sure everything's stuck in a neat manner... But after the presentation and everything was over, there was a HUGE sense of satisfaction in me. haha. I rewarded myself with a nice meal followed by going home. To sleep from 6pm to 9am next morning. hahaha. That felt REALLY good.

So thats it for this. I tink this is one experience i will remember for awhile... heh.
