well
d possibility o me finishing all that in what's left o today is....
nil T.T

something has to go... and im hoping that d something will not affect my grades.

*pathetic*

i knew them ^^

was blog-hopping just now,
visited crystal and shoko's blogs~

it's been AGES since i last saw them.
or even talked to them.
but it's great to know that they've been keeping well.

crystal was my primary school bestie.
we wrote notes and letters to each other,
putting into words what we could not say out loud..
family, school, boys (cant imagine what we had to do w boys at tht age ><) etc, there was nothing we did not share w each other.
it was a great friendship.
to d 10 to 12-year-old sarah, she was one o d most important persons in my life.

shoko was my high school senior.
not sure if we could b counted as friends,
cuz i was (and still a weeny bit) *extremely* in awe and afraid o her.
you could say there was only one other person in d entire school whom i would go out o my way to avoid,
rest assured that d other was NOT my head mistress.

i admire (still do!) both crystal and shoko a lot.
for me, i could never match d cheery outlook crystal has on life.
it's like, even if life goes wrong for her, at d end o d day she still thinks it's beautiful.
shoko, on d other hand... was just a great head prefect, hostel disciplinarion and senior to all o us.
like i said, i would turn and walk d other way whenever i saw her, but there were several instances when i couldnt help but admire her for her fairness, adherence to rules and common sense.
all o which i, sadly, lack.
as a prefect, i should but did not have d courage to "go for" every rule-breaker...




well.
enough biographing.

instead o d studying i promised myself (what, 3 days ago?)
what i did today was
eat, watch CSI, read harry potter, watch CSI, watch mythbusters, watch CSI, read harry potter, eat, sleep
*geesh*
i thought there was a limit to procrastination =.=



signing off~

i'm feeling studious

wait. is that studio-us or studi-ous?
finals is next week and final studio presentation is d week after.
hmm...

ever since i completed one o my homework on d DAY BEFORE submission (actually it was by 5am on submission day, but i stayed up till i finished so it doesnt count =p)
i've been feeling that work isnt so very hard after all.
though, *sigh*, it's a lil late in d sem to b feeling that ><.

i admit that i've been slacking too much.
WAY too much.
i've been getting mostly C's throughout d sem, and it's all my fault.
haiz~
for some reason i kept forgetting about my scholarship + d TERMS tht came w me paying half fees.
90% attendance and an average o 60.
HOW COULD I MANAGE THAT NOW??!!

oh well.
better late than never.
gnna start studying for my finals... now!
bcon, culture & ESD ---> here i come!!
studio and comp app, for which there are no final exams... can just go and drown themselves T.T

wedding~

What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
天主所結合的，人不能拆散。
(mathhew 19:6)

attended a church wedding as a pianist this afternoon.
i love this passage from d bible~
like d priest said, there can b no U-turns in a marriage.
it's sounds quite daunting, huh?

wishing劭全&思穎all d best in their marriage
白首偕老or whatever they say to newly weds.
still haven't brushed up on my "formal phrases" yet XP


a gift from d newly-weds ^^

dear all

i miss you.
i know it's hard to believe that when i don't even bother to pick up d phone, or email or even scribble on your fb walls,
but i do. really~

i guess it's d "i miss spring" or "i miss early mornings" kind o feeling...

pls forgive me, dears,
for ignoring you for d duration o my "end o sem aka brain is filled w all things archi" mode,
in which i pretend there isn't a world outside o taylor's lakeside campus and Bsc Archi...

it's one o my "lazy to b nice" times...
i don't want to catch up half-heartedly, so i don't at all.




wait for me, k?


i love you all <3



hugs and kisses~

final studio project

i knew, as soon as i heard that this would b a 7-week project,
that it would not be easy balancing my time.
and it wasn't.
i always work on my other subjects just because their submission dates were earlier.
=(


d end o sem approaches and all but one o my final submissions are over.
now is d time to regret all i've not done during d sem..
which was, do my design on time and go for tutorials.
dear all, NEVER skip your tutorials.
><
lectures, on d other hand, are skip-able once in a while when there're submissions.
but i'm striving for full attendance next sem.
oh well, too late for that now.


i really dislike final presentations.
it gives me a sinking feeling every time i think about it.
and judging by d rate my work is going, i kinda think sarah on presentation day would be
zombie-ish from d lack o sleep
sick and tired o her design, but has to crap about it
and she will throw her drawings and model under her bed as soon as she gets home.
then forget all about it for a day or two.


sigh~~



it should NOT b like this.





ps happy bday to andrea siow (7-11)~ we were, are and will still be friends =)

it's been too long....

since i last blogged... anywhere.
still, it's been some time since i had d time or mood to.

it's d last month for this sem, which means plenty o
final assignments
final presentations
final exams
and sighs o "why didn't I...?"

like d facebook event "NATIONAL HUG AN ARCHI STUDENT" says,
i'm o an opinion that final presentations are much more nerve-racking than final exams.
but i prefer it that way.
although i kinda do both at d last minute...
i still prefer projects that take every tear, sweat and brain cell you spend into account.
instead o studying something that might or might not come out/have any future use.





haiz.

back to another final assignment---> ARCHI CULTURE & HISTORY.
building typology: Thai Buddhist temples

wat??
