process and not product.

this is the main idea of what's being taught in my classes.
the main focus is the child's learning process
instead of the product that they produce.


especially for my art & craft class.
however,

i do not agree when she said that it also applies when the child is sent to an art & craft class.
as in not done in kindergarten or school.

parents pay a certain amount of money
hoping that the art school will develop further the creativity of their childre
n
not so much of their development.

yesterday, my art & craft class challenged my artsy-fartsy ability.
we learned 3 things.
the difference between wax and oil crayon.
(never knew there was any difference)

crayon resist and scraping.
i could never draw, color or do anything pertaining to art like what other gifted people can do.
my drawing
is basically worse than a 1 year old.

if u don't believe me.
see for urself.




can u tell the difference?

crayon resist.
wonder why my clouds are darker than the rest?
it's cuz some SMART fella told me that i DO NOT need a palette for my paint.

btw, eden,
if ur reading this...
does the pig look familiar?
haha
i thought of u while i was thinking of what to draw.

this is the combination of 2 techniques.
crayon resist & scraping.
can u see my background?




*****************************




oh.
and something came in yesterday.

bout 2 weeks ago (i think),
my dad told me that his comp was spoilt.
so after much advice from both brothers,
and complains from my dad bout why can't he have the new one,
we've finally gotten a new one.


now.....
we can watch movie in style & comfort!




him trying to fit the screen onto the stand.

it needed 2 pair of hands.
then,
we decided that it was going nowhere.
so off we went to ikano's IT hypermarket.
or something like that.
there, the guy did it in a different way from the manual.
and in less than a minute,
it was done!

thank you baby for helping.

result.

colors.




as i've mentioned before,
this sem,

i have an art & craft for young children class.

finally, i managed to buy all my stuff today.
felt so weird.

going to shop for stationeries.
felt like a kid once again.

wanted to get more than 24 color pencils and crayons

but he didn't let me.
he refused.

said that i didn't need so much.
but i do!
i need choices!
i can't be stuck with so few colors.....
ugh!
shouldn't have told him that my lecturer said at least 12 or 18 or 24.

and if u noticed in the photo,

most of my paper colors are pastel.
i love pastel colors.

but he complained.

pink and green are customary
and the blues were just to show him that i like different colors as well.
haha.
the darker shade of blue was to prove that i can like other colors other than pastel.



btw,
i think after a year of being burnt like a lobster.
i'm finally getting an even skin tone.
it's either i'm getting fairer

or darker.
hmmmmm.
choose to think that i'm getting fairer =)




oh and cookie fell sick a day or two before my dad went to spore.
so poor thing.

she wasn't herself.
didn't even wanna drink or eat.

normally, she really can eat alot.

seriously.

if she sees u eating,

she'll sit by ur leg,
ears pointed up,

eyes huge,

nose sniffing in the aroma of the food,

hoping that u would give her some.




seee......
my dad treats her like a baby.
seriously.
my goodness.

this was bought the first time she fell sick.
so cute right?

she was so sick that she didn't even wanna pose for me.
she had fever.

this is her normal self.
doing nonsense.

O.o



watched the movie Wild Child again.

me thinks it came out last year.
haha.
actually can't remember.
anyway, i love watching good movies over & over again.

so after watching the movie the first time,
we thanked God that we were smart enough to sift movies.
fyi, we love watching movies in the cinema.
actually, he loves watching movies. period.
as for me,
i decide what is worth my time.
and this movie.
we thank God for axxo.

as for this movie,
i don't mind watching it over & over again.
not cuz i love bimbo talk or anything.
(though sometimes i use it to irritate him)
but cuz of him...........






ALEX PETTYFER.
or rather
ALEXANDER RICHARD PETTYFER.





dear,
i don't mind naming our son Alexander.
got a nice ring to it.
doesn't it?
HAHAHAHHA
look on the bright side.
he'll be damn leng chai wei!
hahah!
okay sorry.
night!

back.

i'm back! hehe
and like baby said.
i missed him terribly during the 6 days that i was gone too.
everywhere i went,
i wished he was there with me.

i came back from spore with bad sore throat & slight flu.
felt like i had fever once in a while.
didn't have the temperature
but had the body aches.
didn't drink much water in spore
cuz didn't wanna go to the toilet so much.
guess i learnt a lesson from that.


hmmmmm.
if u ask me.
i don't think i've shopped till i couldnt fit everything into my bag.
i could.
just needed to roll it.
it's all cuz of my early "birthday present."
i'm so not gonna agree with my mum that it's my bday present.
i want something more than that.
something that goes along the line like movable
and sucks-ur-money-on-a-weekly basis kind.
something like a.......
c.a.r

but..... i don't think i'll get it.
haha.
too ambitious.


today was the first day of my 2nd year in college.
i think it's my 2nd year
cuz now every subject code starts with a 2.
hehe.
he told me to behave myself today
cuz i'm a senior di.
what nonsense la.

the subject today was arts & craft.
the lecturer told us that it's gonna be more hands-on
and gave us a list of artsy-fartsy stuff to buy
and we have to
always bring it to class.
my friend said that we're gonna look like we just went to the market.

no notes.
probably only towards the exams.


ah shucks.
don't know what's wrong with my comp.
it doesn't wanna transfer photos from my phone.
so guess this post will be a wordy post then.
too bad.

till the next time my comp decides to behave
take care!
tata.

Happy, again


Sucre - one of my favourite characters for this series.

Finally, Prison Break has come to an end. The Scylla quest has also come to an end. Four seasons, four years of excitement watching it. Really fun. I remembered when the show first started, I was just enrolling for my Pre- U and that was four years ago. Now, I'm almost done with my Degree already..

Today I have just watched the final episode for this incredible series. Creative, exciting, fun, smart, entertaining are all the reasons why I kept downloading and watching it every week. Great series. Definitely my favourite series (maybe cause I don't watch many series)

As mentioned, the final episode has been aired and I have just watched it. Great ending, happy ending, thats what all the viewers want to see and thats the reason why its a great ending. Happy endings are always nice. However, some might prefer the hero to be alive but to me, it was great. Really great. Enjoy the episode.

Happy

Happy.. I'm happy to see the new Liverpool away kit for 2009/10 season.. I think its their best away kit I've seen so far..




Looks good isn't it??




There you go, the captain wearing it.. So chun..




And this lucky guy got to take a picture with them.. it's their theme for this year la I guess, they call it the 12th man.. Guess is to appreciate their loyal fans..

More importantly, happy that baby is back from Singapore.. since last Wednesday.. Good to have her back in Malaysia..

Watching the finale for Prison Break tonight.. its been a fun journey watching it since 4 years ago i think.. finally, it has come to an end.. no more running, no more breaking, no more back stabbing, no more stealing and killing.. haha..

Will update after I watch it.. until then, still hope that one day, I can be like the bald guy..



Like this..

morning.

for the past 2 weeks i have been waking up at 7 something. think my body has adjusted to it. cuz last night, i forgot to set my alarm clock at 8. and i woke up at 7 just like that. maybe it's God who's helping me to get up. haha. no idea.

well, as some of u know, i'm over and done with my exams! so happy! not...! i guess i'll only be happy once i receive my results. sigh. this sem really sucks. u know what was the first question for yesterday's paper?

write out the lyrics for Negaraku.

i mean what the heck. even when i'm in school, i don't even sing it. i hang out with this way-too-cool-to-sing gang that if u sing it, they'll look at u one kind. haha. nah, just joking to those of u guys who's reading this. but really. last time in school, we were too cool to sing the national anthem. or rather i was too cool to sing it. haha. guilty.

awww man. after i was done, i asked one of my friends whether she could write it out. she said she was so nervous that all she could remember was the first line 'Negaraku'. hahaha

i wonder how one of my classmates answer that question. He's American by the way. haha. my head of department showed no mercy and told him that it's his fault for not learning it. he's in Malaysia.

ah.
i guess i'll never be relieve that i've complete my exam until the day that i receive my results. seriously. i'm damn scared. i think i'll fail. sigh. this is bad.

anyway, oh wells. i might as well enjoy spore when i can. shop till i drop and till i have no more space in my bag to bring a million more clothes home. haha!





take care baby!
i love u
and i'll miss u =)

i've tried over and over again.
to run away from [-]
but [-] runs faster than me
i can never outrun [-]

how?
i need to get away from [-]
as fast as i can.
the furthest away possible.



*************************




i've finally gotten my quilt.
been wanting it since forever.
i always liked staying in hotels cuz of their quilt
and
also for other reasons as well.
i like the sound that the quilt makes.

few years ago,
my parents bout me a set of bedsheet and quilt covers from ikea.
i loved it so much.
but it remained hidden in my cupboard.
thank God it didn't go missing.

at last.
i get to use it.
so nice!
hmmmmm....
every morning i wake up
feeling as if i'm in a hotel.
on a lovely vacation.
but when i open my eyes,
reality dawns on me.
haha
such a rude awakening huh?
haha
but i get to see hearts all over.
my favorite!




nice?





okay.
guess i better get back to studying.
last paper on thursday!
gosh.
time passes so fast =)

think i update more when i'm too lazy to do what i'm supposed to
but i'm also lazy to update.
hahaha
sheesh
nonsense =)

this sucks.

i knew i shouldn't have checked it.
shouldn't have
even looked
or touch the file.
but yet,
i chose to do it.
now i feel depressed.

i've counted.
i'll lose 12 marks if she decides to be strict.
which she is strict.
she corrected all of our grammatical error in our assignments for goodness sake.
they're not suppose to mark according to that.
suppose to mark on relevance of the paper.
but no.....
she marks according to grammar as well.

i got 20/30 for my first assignment

and 14/20 for my second.
plus at least 5 marks for class participation and attendance.
i should have bout 39 marks.
i need 36 more marks from my finals
to get an A-.
which i don't think i'll get considering the nonsense that i've written.
ah!
12 marks is alot!
and that's only 2 questions.
what about the rest!

for the past 2 papers,
i only took 1 and a half hours.
normally i take 2 hours.
what is wrong with me???!!!!

awwww man.
i'm so depressed now.
i don't even wanna study for my next paper.
depressed
depressed
depressed
why can't we turn back time?

i'm so sad now.
sigh.

Sunday, May 3, 2009

may.

oh wow.
it's may already.....??
it's gonna be the middle of the year.
why do i still feel like the new year has just begun.
this is too fast.
too fast.

i feel like i'm not going anywhere.
wasting my time away.
by playing games,
doing nonsense.
feel like i'm not doing anything productive.
and it just stops there.
it remains a feeling.
nothing done.
nothing changed.

it's so wrong to go away for the weekend
when i'm in the midst of an exam.
i can't study at all now.
i was so tired that i slept for 2 hours.
was suppose to sleep only 1 hour.
and now.....
no mood at all to study.
he's getting angry with me.
it's 9.10.
and i feel like i still have loads of time.
i plan to sleep late anyways.
which is bad.
cuz that decision makes me think that i have LOADS of time.
ah!
this sucks!
i hate exams!

i can't wait for my spore trip.
but i don't really wanna go also.
it's 6 full days without seeing him.
think it's my longest away from him.
wonder how it'll feel.
maybe i'll be SO busy shopping
that i forget all bout him.
haha!
nah.
i'm not that horrible =)

anyway,
think i better start studying.
before he kills me.
hehehe =)




p.s i love u
(hope that by saying that u'll be less angry with me. hahaha!)
