This is the mural painting at Serangoon North Avenue 6 Block 3xx something ( forgot) & Block 303 ( if not wrong). Done a year ago. By the whole art gang & 40 plus students.
My design of course. I am kinda proud of it. But after that Nafa interview, I felt like all the efforts are totally useless. 14 of us have actually prepared our portfolios weeks before the interview. The panel judges even emphasised to bring our artworks.
Fine. So I drove to Nanyang JC, plead Miss Hew to 'lend' me my artworks ( Can you believe it, I even have to borrow my artworks. My artworks belong to the school & un-returnable even if I've withdrawn from the school??!!), rummage thru the art storage room for a whole sweaty afternoon, went to Artfriend and spent hundred bucks to get a new rectangle bag & transparencies, brought the portfolio ( that weighed an elephant) to Nafa, cracked my ankles ( thank you my trusty heels) ...
& I was the last to get into the Boardroom so I waited for 2 hours.
Blankly... I didn't even know any of the other 13 students.
I accidentally heard some girls at the other corner gasping that the chairman only asked some questions. The portfolio was untouched.
* Blink my eyes* Exactly what happened to me when I stepped into the cold Boardroom. There were 6 people, only 1 woman. Asking me some questions you find it hard to answer.
" Why do you think you deserve this scholarship?"
" Blah blah blah"
It was like ," Gosh, can you stop asking me questions? My answers are all at my artworks." But all these were left in my flabbergasted expression.
Really sucks big time. I felt horrible after that. & nvm, after that, when I took a bus home, I was holding too many stuff ( ya thanks to the big bag) & I fall down at the slope of the bus stop when I got down the bus!!!
Did I hear someone laughing in the bus? Bloody passengers! Even the people drinking coffee at a shop opposite the bus stop stared at me!! Bloody Coffee drinkers!!
Ok. So that's how suay I was that few days. I'm fine now. Phew. Basically I'm just staying at home to enjoy the rest of my holidays. Can you believe that I've not been studying since November last year? A good long break & I love it!
I stayed at home to learn how to be a tai-tai, did house chores, renovated our new house, did gardening, played the piano, smacked my volleyball, drove the car, made cards, drew shoes, & gave tuitions & art classes. It's better than what I can imagine to actually just stay at home & earn money. Especially giving out tuitions & art classes. I really revised a lot of my forgotten knowledge & earned back the blings blings 8)
& I've reorganised all my old and newhandpainted shoes collection in a blog. My partner is Wanling, my favourite art class student! =) Do check it out everyone!
Hehe so this time there will be no fingers. ^-^
The only 3 things I gotta sighed for this holiday is, no time with Jeffrey, no time with my girls, no time for my shopping. I am always a person who eventually spent money on art stuff. Why why why??!
Have a nice day! Time to have my beauty sleep.
