Eyu. 08'07'92 WRPS;NYGH;HCI NUS Architecture Taint a celestial vault for me in shades of blue, and sprinkle stars over clear waters, emulating musical notes floating through frozen times. Give me a sandglass containing grains of memories, take a photo of someone dancing through the prairie fields, or maybe filter Paris's boulevards and cafes in vintage lens -- drown me in such ethereal worlds. ♪s recommends ♥KAGAYA ♥MND Minister Khaw Boon Wan the next route, family blogs ♥09A16 ♥ARES ♥ROU+EYU LUNWEN ♥102 '06 ♥202 '06 ♥NYCHOIR 202'06 ♥bearbear ♥guenn ♥minying ♥yihui 408'08 ♥evelyn ♥felicia ♥rouying ♥chiling seniors ♥ewe ♥her tumblr 09A16 <3 ♥jinyao 6w1 '04 <3 ♥yukiyoyeo (: ♥hweetian ♥cheryl ♥yen chuan

Friday, August 26, 2011 ( hope? @ 5:01 AM )  it's been almost three weeks into the course and here we are struggling to keep holding on, frantically adapting and recalling that fragile fragment of reason as to why we are here. It's tough, challenging, and definitely a million times more than what we had mentally prepared ourselves for. Many of us (and perhaps even a few who had no idea what they's sign up for) would never have expected this course to be so mentally and physically stretching. Even I hadn't expected such extreme sacrifices we have to go through, despite having read up so extensively before.Perhaps my research wasn't thorough enough, and it is indeed a vast change when we already have to stay over in the studio on the first day of school to work on our assignments. Spending 200% of our energy on design mod, expected to read up extensively on the various archi books and essays on our own within short periods of time, having to cope with other similarly time consuming assignments for other mods essential to archi, blahblahblah and on and on, it hardly seems that we are humans at all. Times like this, everything that was once passion to us suddenly become commitments, having to sacrifice huge amount of sleep everyday just to produce something for review and crit sessions. And it's not the least encouraging when it is implicit that we have to redo everything at the end of each deadline. I believe the beginning is truly a phase that tests us rigorously. It's been almost three days without sleep for me (well, nearly - I conk out for short periods of time), and things which I do truly desire to learn or experiment with are seen as pure assignments which we have to rush, rush, rush, because new assignments flood in even before we had even redone our previous ones. Just to give a very very brief idea, I can simply show this: Assignment count currently: Design: Develop and finish Design project by Monday, which involves plan/section drawing+geometrical analysis (possibility of visiting St. George's needed again) and model refinement+making Spatial-Visual Communication: Redo the 2 out of 4 A1 line assignments and scan+upload for submission by today, draw plan and section of St. George's Church Structural Systems: New tutorial up on plane trusses Ideas and Approaches in Design: Read up three sets of essays and write an essay reflection for online submission by today, research and decide on two designers for long term individual essay History of Modern Architecture: Research on group presentation and essay (not to mention out of school commitments) Happy happy happy :D That's why we are awake at unearthly hours, but I think even though all these drives us crazy and desperate, there are still certain times when I am suddenly filled with tremendous hope (haha), and I need to constantly remind myself the fundamental reasons behind all these. I believe we can do this, and truly learn much from the various disciplines.((: all right I've just redid my two A1s, time to sleep for a whileeeeee!
