910 大日子

910这天，我们的学院生涯画上了圆满的句号。

毕竟是大日子，期待与兴奋之余难免有少许紧张。离别前的重逢，大家依然“三八”功夫不减，笑得灿烂。回眸过去在达尔尚的三年来，我们一起熬夜奋斗、一起胡闹；我们相互扶持与鼓励，走到今天大家披着毕业袍，头戴四方帽，唱着毕业歌，昔日的这一切都变成温暖的回忆，心里除了感动，也有种淡淡的惆怅。

天下无不散之筵席，到最后总要分开。然而毕业不是一个结束，而是另一个走上更艰难的路的开始。感谢老师们的细心教导，感谢家人朋友的支持，感谢082可爱的同学，感谢dasein的senior和junior，感谢dasein的员工，感谢在这段路程中出现的每一个你。祝愿你我都有个美好的前程，加油！=D

Spread the Smile!

And the good news is, all 50 art pieces sold out in 30 minutes in ING corporate dinner last Friday! We managed to raise RM34,000.00++ to help those cleft lips children! Although I missed the dinner, but I pride myself to be part of this project.

Penang.

这三天的交流会把中国CAFA，槟城USM，和吉隆坡Dasein Academy of Art的学生都聚在美丽的槟岛上，一起交流合作进行一个推广槟城的小project。

和 中国的朋友交流，说话都自然带有北京腔，最有趣的是朋友还说到转不回马来西亚腔! 第一天听了设计师的讲座分享，我们就被分组初步讨论关于最后一天的presentation。我们的组员有6位女生和一位男生：USM的Ang，CAFA 的阳子、小平、“狮子” 、一婷，Dasein的Shu 和我。接着再去关仔角享用当地著名美食。哎哟，都怪自己的胃承受不住asam laksa 的酸辣，所以叫了碟炒粿条。果然，槟城炒粿条就是不一样！我们介绍了asam laksa 给中国的伙伴，当中阳子和一婷觉得有点怪怪，而最爱吃的小平是连汤都不放过！

第二天就是收集资料的时候了！

在炎热的天气 背包步行看槟城，手拿一本sketchbook，一面走就一面把美丽的画面记录下来，当然如果手上有台相机会来得更完美。虽然素描都不是画得很好，可是也 算是个很好的经验，也体会到背包旅行不容易。当地导游带我们参观了天主教堂、印度庙、佛寺，大多于宗教有关。很喜欢那里窗花，特别是在姓李桥的窗花与墙壁 的颜色搭配，十分抢眼且有种亲切的感觉。我其实更渴望了解当地即将失传的传统手艺与文化，可惜时间不足，所以错过了这点。

在这么短的时间 内草草得走过槟城，讨论出一个concept：“DIFFERENT DIFFERENT BUT SAME.” 槟城特别的一面是那里的天主教堂、印度庙、佛寺等都坐落在有通一条巷，却显得如此和谐所以此巷被名为Harmony Street。 从这点，我们认为虽然槟城有马来人，华人，印度人等不同宗教的人拥有不同的故事，但却都是槟城的一份子；大家都在守住槟城，每个人都很重要，而且一个都不 能少。本身觉得有点自责，呈现时没把概念交代好，漏了蛮多小细节。就当做是个经验吧！> <

虽然这交流会的目的因没做足准备 而走错了方向（个人认为），不过最重要的还是很开心认识到来自不同地方的新朋友。在这短短的三天里，大家都相处得像一家人一样，听到很多不一样的故事，了 解不一样的想法，也发觉自己懂得实在太少。我们交换了地址，得空就寄明信片，联络联络。希望下次可以到北京看看，再与大家聚在一块吧。=)

追。梦。

2008年4月7日，我踏入了达尔尚学院。
2011年3月5日，我正式完成插画课程。 

在这三年里，

曾经近1个礼拜天天只睡3小时，
曾经觉得自己在浪费爸妈的钱，
曾经怀疑自己不可以，
曾经压力过大而失眠，
曾经无法承受而哭泣，
曾经忙到整天没吃饭，
曾经做了一堆垃圾，
曾经想什么都不理，
曾经差点精神崩溃，
曾经想过放弃。

感谢这一切的曾经，
感谢生活让我学习很多，
感谢爸爸妈妈这么辛苦把我抚养长大，
感谢爸爸妈妈尊重我的选择，
感谢达尔尚的院长与老师的细心栽培，
感谢082战友的帮忙与支持，
感谢朋友的体谅与鼓励，
感谢自己的坚定，
感谢自己对得起自己，
感谢艺术。

我毕业了。
我有梦要追。
我在努力, 变得更出色。
我希望有一天我的作品能让你们的生活更有意义、更幸福。
加油。=）

"DREAM AND GIVE YOURSELF A PERMISSION TO ENVISION A YOU THAT YOU CHOOSE TO BE." - JOY PAGE

原来你们都是酱的！XD

同一屋檐下的那十余天，
与一群战友一起努力奋斗，互相鼓励照顾，

虽然赶功课赶到叫苦连天，赶到翻天覆地，
但豪不寂寞，还很温暖，很有gut。 =）

大家生活在一起，
少了疑惑，少了陌生，少了隔膜；
多了了解，多了笑声，多了关心。
或许这是三年的学习生涯里最难得、最难忘的一次。 

我重新认识了这班女生。
每一个她都有她的故事。
每一个她其实都有一个共同点- - -大三八。
“不可以！做完了才可以吃！”
“快点开那个医生戏！”
“走，我们去游泳！”
“做莫不开心，肚子饿了啊？要吃什么啊？”
“她嘴巴的意志力还是很强~”
“以后血拼，就是要找你们了啦！” 
“哇塞，你用吞的蛤？”
“哎yer，怎么办，我三个都喜欢叻~”

真的为这分开前的内聚感到安慰。

谢谢你们的照顾，很开心遇见你们。

Don't get flustered.

Hmm...just know that I can't make it. Anyway, it was a good experience and telling me again I should put more and more effort.

Although I lost the chance, but I'm glad I have another chance to join this project: Spread Your Smile With Colours" in this coming Dec. It is a very meaningful event, helping those kids with cleft lips to make clay art, and it will be exhibited in April next year.Hope that the kids enjoy on that day.

I guess I'm quite stress because get impatient and hard to control my temper recently. It's already 5th week of last semester, and left 102days to final exhibition but it is sad that I still can't find my way. I should decide my path, if not I will screw it all up. It's getting tough.

Take it easy

I hope I can make it.Be calm=)

游艺走月半山芭祭

第一次真正地走进这已有140年历史的地方，才发现它不是我想的杂乱。

走在半山芭的街道，感受到了其未沾染的纯美，发现了其深具历史价值的风貌。 感叹今日的新生活已渐渐没落、辗平它珍贵的回忆，因为没有好好地发掘及维护它的价值，因为所谓的文化定义的无智歪论，导致一些老建筑物如百年半山芭监狱， 老戏院等都被拆或改装，狂妄摧毁。唉，真的很令人惋惜。年轻的一代，已沉沦在今日文明，觉得文化艺术这东西是沉闷的，这么无聊走路欣赏文化，不如血拼、看电影、打电动。庆幸还找到知音，愿意放下手头上的事物，走尽10个小时，去瞭解半山芭的历史，华人文化。

透过半山芭的历史片段，口述历史记载，旧照片，旧事物如30年前的电影海报、吹风筒、戏院座位等，更深一层了解半山芭的故事及许多历史事件如513事件、英 殖民时代等。一些居住那儿已久的老半山芭人看照片大声述说当年的旧事，体会到他们心中的无奈和怀旧。在创意市集里排摊的多数都是达尔尚的，见识到他们对艺术的热诚，让我们蠢蠢欲动，也想搞个新计划。晚上的游艺走月，真的很难忘。提着灯笼，游走半山芭，途中欣赏别有心栽的节目有戏剧表演、乡音考古的客家童谣、女高音、粤剧海南小品、舞狮舞龙、街头表演、舞踏表演，虽然很累，但是真的很有意思，很好玩。当中最好笑的是海南小品，那位安娣呼吁大家在面子书加他为友！

我对着DJ吉安的电话跟着他念了客家童谣，说真的很好听。或许你会认为有点神经。我曾经认为这DJ的节目怎么会那么奇怪、诡异、恐怖，而慢慢了解后，才知道背后的意义。

月光光，秀才郎， 騎白馬，過蓮塘，

蓮塘背，種韭菜， 韭菜花，結親家。

親家門前一口塘， 畜介鯉嘛八尺長，

長介拿來煮酒食， 短介留來討哺娘。

討介哺娘高天天， 煮介飯啊臭火煙；

討介哺娘矮嘟嘟， 煮介飯啊香馥馥。

有你们这些知音，很不错。 

Book binding~

Last monday and tuesday, i had joined the book binding workshop at college. We had learned 3 different ways to bind a book which are japanese binding, sewing onto tapes and coptic stitch. It was interesting and fun, but I was kinda messed up...Thanks to my classmates for guiding me, can't believe that i can sew =)

These are the books:

 

japanese binding

sewing onto tapes

coptic stitch

I will make it more and more in the future=)

$$$

Friday morning, I received a call from dasein. I thought the finance girl would ask for my May's school fees at first since every payment should be made before 15th. I felt relieved when she informed me about the scholarship, and suggested me to use it for May's payment, and pay for June in the same time (contra). Yes, I hit my target to be the top student based on my last semester's result, and the college offers the scholarship. I'm thankful to all the lecturers and friends who have been helping me a lot since foundation. It is an encouragement for me to keep it up but it is also a pressure because it is not easy to maintain the GPA especially in third year. And what I'm proud of is I had cleared the debt that I borrowed from mum to learn driving in the last Dec, and relieve my mum's burden to pay for my May's fee! I will try my best  to achieve my next goal and so to "earn"
 more money.

(God treats me well because my mum told me, the government announced that  next year all the P license driver needs to sit for exam to get L license...haha....my P license is still valid for 11'2 years...= =)

Taking bus to college

Today I went to college to help demonstrate sketching for the new intake in the illustration session at 3pm. It was their 1st orientation day. It was also my 1st time to demonstrate in front of so many students. I'm thankful that I had this opportunity to gain another experience. But I think this morning was more interesting.

Usually, I go to college following  either Sy's dad's or mum's car. But today I decided to take bus since her dad moved at 7am. Yesterday night, I sms Carmen asked her how to go Wangsa Maju by bus. This morning, got more infomartion again from her. She said take U11 to Chow Kit Monorail, and then take U20 or U24 to Wangsa Maju LRT Station. Chow Kit Monorail...I don't know where is it leh, but I took the risk.

I took the bus with my mum at 11.30am since she wanted to go Kepong. The bus kept moving and stopping, and I was just looking at the road scene. When I'm the last people in the bus, the bus driver asked me: " U nak turun kat Chow Kit Monorail kan? Kenapa tadi tak turun?" Hahaha, that moment I realized that I missed the station,  but I asked the driver idiotly:" Ya keh? Sudah lepas ah?" Then he asked me to wait in the bus. Alright, When he came back, I told him I actually wanted to go Wangsa Maju. So he told me to walk straight to the bus station in front, then take U20 or U24.I was calm. So I quickly following  his instruction, walked straight and the place is familiar, I came here before. Haha, that is Masjid Jamek LRT Station la my god! So I changed my mind to take LRT since I'm more familiar with it, and I reached my college at 1.30pm.( pandai? ur head la! haha! Carmen, next time accompany me pls...)

So at 3pm, the Illus club's chairman and the vice chairman started to give briefing to the new faces. They are very humorous and the responds were good (because Malaysian student don't know how to open their mouth=.= ). Surprisingly, a lot of the new intake are girls! Almost 2/3!

After the two guys introduced the artworks by illustration students, it left 25 minutes for me to demo. I was thinking I could only finish sketching the facial features, because my fastest speed is 1 hour. BUT I BREAK MY RECORD! I finished quick sketching in 15 minutes! That's already a good improvement for me! Oh great, now I believe I can draw better in the faster speed. Yes, I will train myself. ^^

So, the session ended with some advices like PLS FINISH YOUR ASSIGNMENTS AT TIME. I really have to remind myself every time in next sem. Next sem is truly a disaster man! GOD BLESS LA...>.<

Holidays

Finally, I "had finished" the characters and it means it is HOLIDAYS...Holidays,holidays,but this is not the holidays for fun, it is mainly to do the heavy assignments and upgrade myself. This time, the holidays has been extended from 3 weeks to 1 month, but  it also means that next sem holidays has been shortened. This is a great time to improve my skill so that i will not suffer tortures from the next sem subjects. Of course, this is also the time for the gathering!

Okay la, wish you Happy Holiday and Merry Christmas!





You never know what surprise I can bring for you. Life is short, do something meaningful.^^

lack of time!!

finally finish this. still need to improve. but now have to finish the 2nd one 1st. OMG! no time!!

left 34 hours for us

Saturday dateline, we still have 34 hours to go...I didn't sleep for 24 hours ady...file corrupted lagi...God bless!

don't think you are not good, think you can be good, even excellent.

Things are more challenging now. This time, I remind myself everyday not to lazy and approach to excuses anymore, since I learned a lesson from last sem. Last time I was addicted with net (fb can knock me down...) and didn't arrange the time wisely. So, all the things were finished in rush.

I got my result last friday. Surprisingly, I have improved. I think one of the reason is the moral study(frankly, I didn't expect it). I feel glad that I still maintain my standard. However, I didn't feel satisfied with some of my last sem's artworks. I still can't master in designing character and painter. It takes time to do it. I was giving myself a lot of excuses, and I lost my patience. So sometimes, things were not up to my request.

This sem, I wouldn't let it happen. I have to train myself, speed up my skill, and cut down entertainment. And it was exciting that I have been chosen to be the assistant of lecturer,teaching figure sketching. I truly appreciate this opportunity because I believe that I can learn more and get experience from this.Thanks to syin who let me stay at her room after class^^.The syllabus of figure sketching is the one I'm not really good in - perspective and human structure. I felt nervous in the 1st class, and somehow hesitating the things i told them. Moreover, I taught them wrong!!(I'm so sorry...T.T) So, it is no excuse for me to stop improving. I promise to myself not to give wrong message so they confide in me. Juniors are fast, so how could I still crawling?!       

is holiday!!

yeah!!is holiday!! finally I can have sufficient time to do my favorite thing!

There are so many things to do in this holiday. Of course, I can't stop drawing because this is the time for me to improve myself and learn new skill. I haven't reach the current level i have set,so got to appreciate this holiday so won't be so exhausted doing the coming sem's assignments.

I got to rest at home since I was infected by something till my body all red spot......T.T

I got to gather with all my friends,hang out, movie, sot plak with them! i miss u guys alot!!!

I also want to make something special for all of u.......secret.................xp

In conclusion,there are a lot of thing to do!!!!

Happy Holiday!!!^^

2 weeks then, back to hell~

I couldn't submit all my assignments yesterday at 3.00pm, still left 2 unfinished artworks. I also forgot to return the book to library. When the time I realised, library has closed. And yet, I only remembered I forgot to submit one finished character assignment when I was on the way back to home from office at about 8.00pm! Without thinking, I quickly sms to kc. Luckily, kc said i can submit that piece only on Monday. So "dai tou ha"... but I will still finish those 2 assignments and let him marks even though he may not include it in my final mark. (May be he will...haha) So, Monday I have to go college again...oh sien...

This 4 extra weeks were so tiring, and finally I can rest now for 2 weeks. I don't feel very excited because this is only a little bonus in my life, after 2 weeks, I have to back into the hell again...Now I only understand what sy feels...but i willing to, that is what should i do to achieve my dream.

Holidays, I do have a lot of plans, but seem like hanging, 2 weeks time is too short man!!!


I hope I enjoy my 2 WEEKS holidays... IS 2 WEEKS holidays... yes is 2 WEEKS... 2 weeks...
y not 2 months...yes, it is 2 weeks...ONLYYYYYYYYY.....!

be sure that u hv backup for ur pendrive things...

DAMN BAD and ANGRY!

My friend(*) deleted all my computer homeworks and other researches i accumulated long time ago in my pendrive just because of VIRUS!!! (*) didn't even ask me what is it about first and simply clicked delete! Weird! i scan my pendrive everytime, no virus. but then, what happen?!

Now I have to do it all again! Luckily, I saved my final assignment in other friend's notebook (my notebook is in hospital now), if not, I definitely will kill (*)! I have spent a lot of time on it, and it is almost done, and the date line is near too. If I don't have backup, I'm sure dying... Even though I can finish it again afterword, the effect would not be nice.

Yesterday in the computer class, the pendrive suddenly sot also, I couldn't remove it, and the homeworks also gone. Shock! My lecturer explained that maybe is because the pendrive cannot detect Mac. Luckily, When I check it with notebook, the homeworks still there. But why, the god joking at me?

(sorry to say that, GOD)

Just remind all of you, do have your backup especially the important one. You can't image what will happen then...and pls remind your friends too, don't simply delete it when virus has been detected. Just don't open it and remove it. Virus thing, maybe in your computer is not detected, but others' computer, who knows? Don't frame-up yourself and your friends.

很久没写了...

major 后, 日子简直忙透了...

功课越来越多了,根本就没时间来休闲一下...
上上网谈天啊,玩friendster啊,
功课一来,连想都别想了!
因为一玩,就会玩最少两小时,
这两小时我可以做很多功课了啦!
但是功课还是很多咧~

选择插画,当然就是喜欢画画。
虽然是蛮累人的,但是依然享受画玩后的满足感与成就感。
班上的朋友不比基础班的来的亲切,巅疯,
他们都很静，不喜欢交流，不会搞气氛...=.=
他们比较喜欢竞争(本人认为啦),
反而FDN的朋友呢,会比较重友情,开心最重要。
都没有说竞争不好,只是也不至于搞到气氛酱冷的嘛~

但是讲真的,很强咯他们~

虽然有些真的只会利用你,
但是我相信,只要我真心以对,
我没有对不起自己,还可以让自己成长。
加油吧,朋友，
千万不要放弃，不要忘记我们的梦想，
人生是充满希望的。
不要为了他们，而把你处于灰色地带~
我们永远支持你！

放假了~

半年的Foundation就这样结束了~
很不容易哦......
哭过, 笑过, 累过,
这一趟半年的旅程,很精彩。
