What’s has happened, happening and going to happen
Monday, May 28th, 2007I have so many things i want to blog about. Like the trip to Tall Island in Johor from the 18th to the 20th ( Like snorkelling, jungle trekking, star gazing, kayaking ( without life jacket !), tele- matching….), the activities i did after final presentation with college friends like bowling, pool, foosball, movies - Spidey 3 in OneU(17th) and Pirates 3 in Mid Valley(23rd). I was the last for both bowling games in Mid Valley and One U, Marcusses’ strikes are really powerful while i really can’t tahan Rachel’s slowball ( actually i think it’s not really slow ball, it’s more like you drop the ball and let it roll. LoL! So tortorous to watch when it rolls slowly but manage to strike. Sorry rach but i really do think so. Hehe).Shopping with Ash and Cheryl in Bangsar Village on Monday(21st) after seeing the Studio 2 seniors did their final presentation. First time eating in D’lish and Pizza Uno after watching Spidey 3. Went to Veritas with Ash to have interview (supposedly but didn’t) to work as practical trainees coz the guy was not around coz we didn’t reconfirm, but we filled in our details. The form required us to write our most embarassed moment, draw our own personality face and do a set of IQ questions. It was fun though, haha.Ashley’s surprise birthday party ala bbq on the 27th, which was on Sunday. How we prepared and marinated the food. Fun actually. Watched ‘Friends’ from midnight till 4am although i slept halfway through it during sleepover in Ash’s place yesterday or should i say this morning. Went for practical training interview in Veritas today and then went to KLCC after that. Planning to go to Singapore with Ash, Rach and Ash’s mama on the 9th till 15th of June. Then start work in Veritas from the 18th of June till 14th of July. And then on the 16th of july, semester 4 starts!!!! Back to sleep deprived and headaches and dreaming about work and crazy deadlines and some frustrated days! but of course, it’ll be exciting and interesting! Look forward to it, especially Studio 2 and Trip to India during Activities Week. Woohoo! Back to what’s happening now, practical taining in Veritas is not really work i think since mr zainal said we are quite fresh ( as in we don’t know as much as the 3rd or 4th year students), he said we’ll just probably ‘hang out’ with the architects, likes see what they do and help if we can. Hopefully on the 24th of june, a bunch of high school friends are free to celebrate e ting’s birthday. Since i was the one who suggested it, so i’ll be the one organising i guess. But will be kinda busy working. Haha. Hope i can manage. It’s a 9 - 6 job actually in Veritas. I am now thinking maybe i can start working on the 4th of june and then take one week break to Singapore…….. No idea la. Hope to enjoy myself and do some shopping in Singapore. I think i’ll find out more about Singapore first and hope to visit as many places as possible. This has been an interesting holiday and i don’t want to waste it just like last year’s holidays. I’m going to blog about the more detail stuff about the Tall Island trip, Ash’s surprise bbq party with Cheryl, Rach, Jun Hao, Govin, Marcues, Yann Ee, I and Ash of course,and some other activities soon. Btw, i haven’t gotten the tall island pictures from cheryl, Ash’s birthday party from Ash, Cheryl and Jun Hao, and the final compilation of Services 1 assignment and Construction 2 Column and Site Visit from either Jun Hao or Cheryl. And i’ll post the pics i have soon. Also, i met one of the panel for Studio 2 final presentation.Mr Too the practising architect who is a UM lecturer and a passionate christian. He was in Mr Lee and Ms Kwok panel. The world is a small place, really. My grandfather now stays in Tung Shin Medicare, and the bed next to him lies the father of Mr Too who was once Sun Yat Sen’s teacher!. Man, he has a lot of stories to tell, like how he knows famous and powerful people. I recognised him the moment he walked in. My family was there as well. We exchanged ‘hellos’ and my father and Mr Too started chatting. He is a friendly person and chit chatty. Like my father. haha. The conversation started with Mr Too’s dad ( who once suffered in ailments) and then my grandfather, then Mr Too’s family, then Mr Too’s church ppl, then he said alot about christian things (really passionate),then he introduced himself as an architect, then me saying i saw him before, then talked about architecture ( comparing UM students with Taylors, and not really glad to hear that Taylor’s students are lazier. haha), then my parents asked which Uni better, then Mr Too explained he’s more into the British and US ones ( Ivy leagues of course, so hard to get in), then he talked about Mr Lee and Ms kwok migrating,he said they(Mr Lee and Ms Kwok) are good in what they do ( and i agreed also), then he mentioned he was a top student in Uni so he can recognise top students’ work, then he also said he gave 10 upon 10 for 2 students in Taylors during the final presentation coz he said they were good( if i’m not mistaken he said the praying mantis one and the other square square one, which i duno which one, hahahah), and he asked for my name….. (oh no! i hope he doesn’t remember my name…..). My holiday is well planned compare to the last two. I wish to learn more things during this break and probably sign up for dance classes as well!
