The prepress, visual lit and my Vday hard work went down the drain. I doubt I accidentally deleted the 3 entire folders while I cleaning up my desktop. Or was it the turning 1 year old cranky laptop or the high risk becoming- faulty-thumb drive?

The worst thing is I have got no backup files at all. That many nights spent drawing and vectoring the 12 chinese zodiacs and all. I need time to get over it. Maybe god is telling me they ain't good enough. It's also high time I learn to tidy up my files and back them up after submission.

On a lighter note, received a msg from 'mr. encouraging lecturer'.
"thank you for the GC pics you sent. very helpful and also you take
really take good shots. So perhaps you can keep that at the back
of your mind before you discard that as an options for your future".

So i replied saying that I never thought of discarding it but it will be my second option if my first option were to fail. But still I need to polish up my skills. Design is subjective and so is photography. Being asked and wanting to review portfolio and school projects to the staffs, SDOs and old friends has become a training ground for me. Hearing positive and negative comments equals to improving and pushing my work to the next level. I'm always glad I joined SC. I wish I and hopefully we can do much more for the club.

Would it be a miracle?

the still of the night















Yes, comfort me with the tons of work!
When DEADline is only 3 days away.

But still, I won't bring a heavy mind to school tml.
It's just too taxing with 2 heavy modules.
Okay, i better work around with it.

Happy Wednesday!



















"I have decided to allow full digital illustration for project 2 & 3, due to the time constrain. But try not to hide behind digital, to run away from fun experimental things becos its surely more original. After all, you’ve got a whole life ahead of u to be as digital as the world is already."

By all means, find the shortest cut to deliver your work ok! Choose the simplest most compelling thing to work on!
Life is too short to overstress!

keep up the great work!

Yes, I have to agree with Si-y. Life too short to overstress! We only live once, so live it with no regrets. No matter how stressful and hectic life can be ahead of us, the key is to enjoy and have fun. I think grades don't matter that much anymore, what's more impt is I do it with my heart and soul.

P.S HAPPY 3 MONTH AND COUNTING :)
the chinese new year mood is on :)
(can't wait for bro to return from his "overseas trip",
at least only then i can resume my love for phototaking)

I'm finally back :) So pre-press is officialy over. What a long wait at times like this. Dragging it until will only make the block even worse =/

So I'm having vis lit and applied illustration this block. Can't imagine, a module with 4 major projs. Going to get done and over with the 3 sch posters and that freelance poster soon. I think it's high time i conc in sch work. Have always
been telling myself that, don't hold back with sch work. Now, with my i-believe-healthy-body, i hope i can endure another 7 months of hectic deadlines.

Have been missing alot on lot of friends. Managed to meet stef, qi and joc the other day. So miss those days together :) it's interesting, life seems to be so diff now don't you agree? Last but not least, spending time with my loved ones. Love ya! People, all the best for exams and what-ever projs :)


Hang in there,
Sam
