Well...today has been an interesting day.

Classes were okay...i can't believe that one week has passed by so quickly. Maybe cos i wasn't really concentrating on the things i was doing this week, and was too busy daydreaming and my mind was preoccupied with the BouncingNinjaTurtle.

Let me ceritakan about my blah projects, which seems to be the same as always...
Projects class, this time we only have one major project. The usual drawing after drawing after drawing after sketchmodel after sketchmodel...Blehh, its getting to me. Well, this project is to create a Kiosk based on whatever theme you choose, like mine is Animal Prints, as in zebra stripes, leopard spots and others like that. I haven't gotten very far ahead in the project so thats about as detailed as it gets.

Drawing...We have to do this artwork on Crime. We all selected a newspaper cutting each on whatever crime catches your fancy. Mine is on this guy who was jailed for having sex with an underaged girl. So we have to pick out main keywords, like guy, sex, underaged girl and morph them into metaphors...to explain how you see the feeling behind the crime. The objective is to get people to think about the crime without pre-perceptions about the characters involved.

Image hosted by Photobucket.comSex however took abit of thinking. I was thinking to bring out the joining of bodies. So i was thinking la, lock and key, entertwining branches...then I decided to use a bolt and nut. Haha..more appropriate i guess.

Image hosted by Photobucket.comThe underaged girl also was abit tough. I want to portray her as naive, just sprouted into the world and knowing nothing. So i thought babies?? But i decided on a sapling, or a newly sprouted tree. Gah...don't ask me why...same as above.

So i have to connect these three elements into my sketches ler...

Other than that, Malaysian studies is quite lively, more alive than i thought it would be. But i can't help it la. i feel so sleepy on Friday afternoons...

Thats so much for the update on College Life ...
