Since its the 29th of February today, I SHALL BLOG. Haha, its the leap year by the way. Plus, since its the start of a new block, I better to take the chances to update this poor little blog, before I get too busy to even have time for this.

Well, just to update you guys about my current two modules for the block, its Design History & Culture, and Multimedia Essentials..

Lets talk about Design History & Culture first.

Its like a core Design subject, which means, every design student, despite of which course, have to take this module. So yeah, its a very dry subject. While others have e-learning for this class, my class have to go to classes every day. How unfair. In addition, we have presentation every Thursday. Argh, how much I hate presentations. The coming one was totally a bullshit presentation, total waste of time kind.

The first assignment we had, was ridiculous. We have to observe a stranger for 20 minutes, take note of his appearance, behavior, height, face, complexion, etc, etc. Someone tell me this isn't stalking. The worse part was, WE THEN HAD TO APPROACH THAT STRANGER we just "Stalked" and tell him something like "Oh, hi, I've been observing you for the past 20mins.." or maybe something nicer like "Hi, I'm currently working on my school assignment which requires me to observe you for 20mins, and then get you to like fill up this 20 questions. Thank you."



Hahahahahahaha, that would probably be the response I would be getting. Tell me who wouldn't give such shocked face.

RIDICULOUS ASSIGNMENT isn't it??

Alright, now, lets talking about the another module, Multimedia Essentials.

Its all about designing a webpage. Well, at first I thought it couldn't be that hard, since I have a blog and I know some of the html codes. Plus, we will be using Adobe Dreamweaver to make the webpage, and I've had some experience with it 3 years ago when I was Secondary 3. I went for an Advance Elective Module in Temasek Poly's IT School, the module was Web design. That module occurred over 2 weeks i guess, and I managed to make a webpage within that 1 week.

Little did I know, the Dreamweaver I used that time, was totally different from the one I'm going to use now, CS5. T_T And I'm basically raging over typing html on notepad. Like seriously? WASTE TIME. Had a hard time doing the stupid table. I gave up anyway. Non-graded assignment, should spend another 3 hours on it. This module might be more fun when we get used to everything. I hope.

Till here then. Oh, and here's a Meme Comic I made, regarding that assignment I had. Haha.

3 weeks since I last blogged. Been busy with Project 1. Next week's submission already. Spent alot of money for production. Printing alone cost $48.50. I kinda felt cheated, for being charged $12 for printing on A1 size paper. Its my own paper somemore, plus, I did not print the whole paper. Argh. Put that aside, I'm here to blog about my Valentine's day, not this!

14th February 2012

Yes, I finally celebrated Valentine's day officially. Had presentation in school, before meeting Boyfriend in the evening. Went over to Plaza Sing, mainly because there's Build-a-bear Workshop there!


This is the Bouquet of Flowers that Boyfriend gave me. I told him a few days before Valentine's day that I wanted Pink roses instead of red ones. I feel that pink roses are nicer. (:


This is the photo that I feel its the best out of the bunch!



Went to buy Movie Tickets first, before heading over to Build-A-Bear Workshop. I chose this skin because I feel that it is the cutest! :D




After choosing, we get to choose which sound we want our bear to have! I pick the "I Love You" sound. The lady there said that it can only be pressed for 1000 times. Then she asked us to test press, to see if its working. After I pressed once, Boyfriend said "You are left with 999 presses". Hahahahaha.


This is the process of pumping cotton wool into the skin! Its getting fatter!



We then have to pick up a heart for our bear, make a wish, let the bear kiss it, then stuff it into its body! She then sew it up.



Next, we was supposed to give it some "Bath". It was actually scrubbing extra fur off!


Dressing time! Picked a smart suit for him! :D SO CUTE RIGHT? Shoes also!



Finally, we had to create a Birth Certificate for him.

SO ADORABLE RIGHT? I was so happy after everything! :D




We then went to watch movie! We watched The Wedding Diary. It was quite a nice comedy by AhNiu. Worth watching!



After the movie ended, rushed for a late dinner at Swensens.









Cabbed home after that, because I was running late for my curfew. ): Anyway, here are the gifts! :D



I really had a great day. <3
