This is the second time, that I will need to restart my design. I find it still really weird that we have to copy artist models. And, I really dislike it. My art teachers can probably tell by now.eg. For Photography, in my first contact series for pics from home, my teacher decided to ask me what artist models I used, and didn't end up choosing any of the photos as a 'strong'-ish photo to develop on, yet I ended up using one of those first shots on my final 8 booklet. Which is meant to illustrate our best shots. . .
I understand that artist models are meant to be our "guide" but, why is it in design, I have to totally stick to it. It is quite ironic, especially when the topic of our folio is " It's good to be (insert name)" Currently, I may as well change my name off it, and put in my teachers. I have had to change my postcards so much. I don't even like one of them (the first one that my teacher told me to change to an example that she found)
Today, she told me she didn't like my other postcard, and also quite insulted me. She claimed 2 of the images I had put there looked like clipart. One of those images, was a simplified version on the malaysian flag which I made round to make it look like a button, hence to relate to where I came from and also that I like fashion. The other was a photo, it was of my arm when vicky was here, since she used to draw and paint on my arm. The picture was of my chinese name, and I cropped it abit so it wouldn't be looking so obviously like my arm, then embossed it to take the colour out of my arm. I have really lost my motivation for design... and to think she would know what my name is now, even though she has taught me for two years, she still gets my name muddled up with grace, who is in my class this year as well.
It seems so contradictory to do something about yourself, yet copy some ones idea. It seems if anyone gets their stuff put in a book. Its alright. baahhh.
Its so bad for me to turn around in class, when everyones work looks so beautiful, and I'm still stuck on my first item...I know that when you look at everything in the end, it'd all look good, but I just don't really see it turning out good.
I guess I really need to thank Jamie for the tip of taking a deep breath. It really helps though, weirdly enough...
I really can't wait for the holidays. I need time.For myself.To relax.For God.To refresh.My mind. I just feel really lost right now...
Sur la autre cote. I finally managed to obtain my first few exc credits. I seemed to be a merit student, so I found it quite unexpected. I really hope to somehow gain at least a merit for my textiles...
Also, in my current state...I think..I really need a "mature" person to talk to...
*sigh*
100th

Well, I just booked my ticket for malaysia yesterday! woohoo~! Now, I have just enough money for the formal ticket...man, I guess I need next thursday to come soon.
"Casino Royale"
I'm sure theres a girl in that movie which wears a gold dress. Hahh.
Well, i came home and turned on the tv, then changed the channel to the korean channel coz it sometimes they have interesting stuff sometimes. Then there were people with music videos, then seeing some of the girls dance. It's kinda weird. Theirs looks weird, but if it was the "europeans" doing it, it'd seem alrite e.g. secret [girls band] and U-kiss [guy band] The guys wear so much eyeliner...more than me whenever I apply makeup, which I'm getting quite lazy to since I sometimes forget to take it off before I sleep and it totally dries my eyes. I also need to remember to put on my eyeliner before my contact lens...otherwise sometimes the gel gets on my contact lens. xD It feels funny.
Waheiii.
Can't wait for nexttt yeaaaaar?
Oh mygoodness. I'm last for seminar >.<"" gaaaaaahhh.
