Happy Vday!!!

yoyo pplz!!! Happy Valentine's Day!!! or Happy Friendship Day!!!!!

wah wah finally interim crit 1 is over on Mon but that doesnt spell the end of discussions and problem solving and MOOORRREEE problem solving~~ i wanna say that i love my grpmates, thanks for being such lovely ppl. However, all the more I feel i wanna isolate or feel guilty becos i have been so hot-tempered and unefficient.... and i even raised my voice at some ppl though i dun mean to heart. something wrong with me since i come back.... or dunno what is exactly happening to me... and I feel so sorry and bad abt it... that i feel i dun deserve their kindness and patience.

Was watching "Kiki Delivery Service" - an anime, which i think Jovie watched it long time ago before. Well i simply love the cute litte talking cat! I wish i have a talking cat... at least he/she can be my accompany at home whom i can su4 ku3 to. >.<

Anyway, here's a little dedication to my beloved friends:

Thanks for all the care and love you have showered me without any conditions
Thanks for all the time you spent with me and listening to me without complains
Thanks for lending me a hand whenever I am in a fix
Thanks for being so timely sensitive to ask me how am i whenever I need someone to hear me
Thanks for all the sweet memories you have left me with
Thanks for giving me the mental strength even if you are not physically by my side
Thanks for giving in to all my crap, whines and complains
Thanks for making me smile whenever you tease and joke with me
Thanks for worrying abt me at times and giving words of ur wisdom
Thanks for so many things that you have given me

Awww~~~

I would like you to know
You all are always in my heart and will always carry those sweet memories with me
I hope we will stay like that forever or the many many years to come.
Let us stay in touch and may our friendships stay strong
And I will always be around when you need me
And I will always lend my ear when you need a listener
I will be supporting you silently (mo4 mo4 de zai4 bei4 hou4 zhi1 chi2 ni3)
Just let me know :)

Ps: when I couldnt wake up this morning at the intended time... my mum suddenly said to me that maybe I should take year out... cos she thinks my waking up habit is getting from bad to worse and it is a pain to see me struggling to open my eyes every morning.... and when I came back from sch today, she said my uncle said I shld start working or resting aka having year out cos he thinks one will go crazy if too much work and stress have built up these years. Personally I dunno if i am showing signs of uncontrollable tendency to scream and burst or feel depressed but I am worried myself too... If one day I really went nuts and forgot all the memories, please forgive me. Deep in myself, I will have them kept with me to my grave. :) aiyo choy choy, why the deathly word. no good to say for this coming festive season.~~ forgive moi :p

The NUS Architecture Graduation Exhibition- "How does your garden grow?"
I am grateful and honoured that my Thesis Project is selected for this exhibition. Honestly speaking, the process had went through multiple changes, and many horrible late nights, stayovers in the computer studios, having Macs for almost every day towards submission period... Much worse is the physical tiredness, mental tireness and depression and all.... Every bit of progress is difficult, full of obstacles and never a smooth path. I won't be able to pull through without encouragement and help from friends and family. Thank you so much!

Opening Day
Date: Saturday, 13 Jun '09
Time: 7:30pm
Venue: Iluma Urban Entertainment Centre
201 Victoria Street Singapore 188067, Level 7 (@Sky garden for the opening ceremony)

My Exhibition Installation @ NUS Museum, UCC - from 7 March to 7 May "Site, Spectator, Situation"
This exhibition project is collaborated among NUS Dept. of Architecture, University Scholar Programme(USP) and NUS Museum for my USP Final Year Project. The opening ceremony and presentation on 6 March was a success! Thanks to Noora (NUS Museum), Lilian Chee (Supervisor from Archi) and the departments for their support and those who turn up and those who visited my installation! :)
My installation is a collage of maps collected during my travels. It is a "Mind" map that existed in my mind based on experiences and memories of places. Hence, it's a cognitive map that is subjective to everyone. Hopefully, this installation will be placed somewhere else later and I'll inform you if it happens. If you drop by UCC, feel free to take a look!
3 other students' works are at NUS Arts Canteen, Kampong Glam and lastly in Museum (level 1).

@ Suntec-MY. PLAYGr0und
It was kinda rush as I only had a sunday to colour up the whole thing. Thanks to my anime friend who encouraged me all the way as I felt like giving up halfway several times then. There are other students and studios participating in this exhibition, such as Imaginary Friends Studios (IFS). Many wonderful artworks. Hopefully more NUS ppl take part!!
