September ends! Wake up!

Johnston's post title reminded of this song. I loved this song a lot last time, but now no more. What a stupid song. Ok I think Jeff knows why. Inside story... >=)

September is officially an end ( Goodness, how fast time pass in NAFA!)




I couldn't find a blank puzzle, so I sprayed the drawing on a cardboard and cut out the puzzle patterns. Hellish lots of effort! Anyway, this is a dedication to Royale Music School, and I'm starting my children's drawing class this weekend! WOohoo!



Gongbi =)... no I should put this grouchy face >=-(. Because of Gongbi I skipped both Investigating Art & Photography lessons, because of Gongbi I lost my wallet!!!! Stupiak!



Still life, not still at all, and not the final one. Alvin Tan came and forced a scar onto my background, which totally affected my mood for the WHOLE DAY.



My lady made out of torn paper who obviously needs some plastic surgery.



Still life again. Still life every week. Monochrome everywhere. Monochrome everyweek. Soon I'll be a still life myself and a monochromatic human too.


Hari Raya had not come and now I'm here thinking of Deepavali's holiday!

Fruity Day & a fruitful day

I don't believe in Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest and that homo sapiens were originally apes, but at that very first day of school, everyone was holding a banana around the campus like monkeys or gorillas.








We've totally gone bananas! Funny and playful day, it's the Nafa Vibrancy and Fruit day where talented students show off at the stage and fruits were given free that day.






During my Gongbi class, haha! Eh I got listen what the teacher said ogay =)







Lots of handcrafted stuff from the VIBRANT students, check out Shirley's jewelry blog here- http://www.ministryofbeads.blogspot.com/ ! Angela and I were super kiasu and kaypoh ( trying my best to use up all the addicted Singlish) that she bought a pair of earrings, a bracelet. And I eked out my meagre pocket money to purchase a pearl multiwear necklace. After that I was BROKE "legitimately".




Back in the campus, there's a lot of peculiar looking drink cans sold at the vending machine. I'm always so curious to try out some of them especially POCCA SWEAT ( Will you really perspire after drinking?) and this brown drink can. But unfortunately they all turned out rather lousy =(





I can't believe she wore a pair of jeans and matched it with a scarf today. Angela looked totally different, but prettier =)





When night called in, I was too exhausted to go back home. A total dead beat for me and guess what, I stayed at Mimi's place! And my, I thought I was living in a resort for free ( Exclaimed! ).

















Really very nice! Thanks sweety I enjoyed the stayover! Even though I was extremely nervous going there. Met Mimi's dad, sis and her pretty feline Pearly.





Ok, night people I gotta get my forty winks in my slumberland now. Wenfeng and the "CLOSED" board look good together! HaHAha!



Now then I notice that all my paragraphs are very croppy, unrelated, and lousy too. Nevermind, it will not spoil my mood to crave for some siesta right now.



Last but not least, I took a shot with my amazing stuntman Shane!!! He's always doing all sorts of entertaining, awe-inspiring and jaw-breaking scenes. But I totally love his beatboxing =D


By the way, SELAMAT HARI RAYA PEOPLE!!! There's firecrackers in my village here! Awesome! And the Malays are all looking oh so pretty in their traditional costumes, that's what I love to see during season's greetings. =)
Okok I'm really going off now, TOODLES!

A mask of myself

I always try to do the best in everything, especially in studies. But I was utterly disappointed by a little photography assignment given back these few days. It's a normal SLR diagram, I did research and drew it down carefully, but still I got a crude C. I helped others with their work too, and they got better results, of course. Some came up to me and flaunted. " Hey, I just did it before the class starts, and I can get better results than you!"

Fine, what's wrong with me, as if I'm born guilty.

Just a little assignment, not supposed to be mentioned, but it made me down to thinking so much these few days. I did terribly BAD for photography module. Especially the pinhole cameras images. Everyone got such beautiful pictures, while everytime I came out of the dark room, my images were just as black as the dark room.

My mood was equally black and dark too. I can't even complete such a simple task.

;(








I guess people like me are actually not worth mentioning after all. Some classmates or teachers forget my names like forever.

" What's your name?" ( On the first day)

" Zhi Wei =)" ( Politely)

" Sorry, but what's your name again?" (2nd day, 1st month, 2nd month)

" Zhi... Wei... =" ( 2nd day, 1st month, 2nd month, sadly)

" The girl at the back!!!!"

" Zhi (4th sound) Wei (3rd sound)!" ( STUPID wrong hanyupinyin for so many times and it sounded like a guy's name)

" Erm... sorry... but I keep forgetting your name." ( In lift... after introducing for the 6th time)

" Oh... I'm ... Zhi ... Wei... nvm if you forget." ( WTH sound & look)

I always blame myself for not having an English name. It's like people nowadays must have a good english name! Mum and Dad, please bring me to the immigration to add one! =(

Back in hometown, I never get such problems. But when everyone here sees you in your english name, I almost got berserk. I really love my name, but nowadays I hate it more and more. During my secondary school year here, the teachers even discussed my name's actual pronunciation in the staff room. What on earth is going on. Externally, I said " Nvm" or " It's ok" or " Oh you can call me anything" or " You can take me as a guy!".... Internally I am in a state of sheer distraught.




* Sigh*

And I really love the gang I hang out with in class everytime. But are we really that bad or lazy? There's a bitch that hangs around with us some time ago and now she just totally ignored us in class, like we didn't know each other since the start! We play all the time, but we do work all the time too, can't you bear to lose a bit, can't you just don't reveal your kiasuness? Why must you go and hang out with all the upper class people who show off their works all the time in front of the studio all the time? Are you really that desperate and hardworking? I wanted to say hi to you that day but you did not even glance up! I thought you're mature enough but no, you really disappoint us a lot.

Usually I never care a bout all these pieces of craps around me, there're a lot of such homo sapiens floating around in junior college, but in nafa, yes there's such homo sapiens too. Well, all in all, good luck in your life and I hope you have true friends with you. Knowing such extraordinary people like you taught me a lesson. Continue to live in your own world then...

I don't wish to be like you. I do not wish the people I love to be like you. I do not wish any other people to be like you. Here, I will tell myself that I will be myself. Even though I am sad now but I know I will pick up and continue down the road. All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was. I accepted their answers too, though they were often in contradiction and even self-contradictory. I was naive. I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions which I, and only I, could answer. It took me a long time and much painful boomeranging of my expectations to achieve a realization everyone else appears to have been born with: that I am nobody but myself.


*** Double sigh***

Sorry for such an honest post. I am in my quandary now that I can't help to splurt out. Sometimes we are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.

I will learn and let go. It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are. And I hope I possess a lump of that audacity too...

Love, and a cough, cannot be hidden

Like what I said in the previous posts, I had a pile of pics waiting to be uploaded. Normally, I will get very lazy to post up all the pics, even if I did think of it initially, I will tend to waste my time. Blog hopped around, chatted with friends, checked emails and orders, and till the end of the night, it was too draggy to post up the pics. But today, NO! I can't be bothered with anything else, cuz maybe I enjoy posting up Mr.Chew's pictures a lot =D * Wide smile* And they never fail to cheer me up!




Woohoo! My chauffeur drove me up to Genting! A suave chauffeur somemore, I love the person only, not the tyres ( Jeff drove a bit too fast I almost got drunk!)



Slow down, sweety, seriously you're tooOOO fast! I will never ever survive driving out of KL next time, with so many such drivers like him. =( Boo..



It's cable car time! I was as excited as a little kid, as for goodness sake, it's been oodles of ages since I got up to one.







His innocent look again. * Melting in front of the monitor teehee=)*








We planned to eat buffet, but eventually, we chose our favourite Sushi King =D!


Unagi rocks to the core!




A very saccharine day. Full of sweetness. I thought I got diabetes.

Good blogging Day

Like how a good hair day/good shoes day/ good art day matter a lot to me, a good day and time to blog is kinda essential too. It's been so long since I got updated online and I wrote 4 posts at one go!




I was so glad that we took more photos this time. Everytime I met Jeff, I was too happy that I forgot my phone cam. And he looked extremely retardedly cute here. By the way, we're at Genting again, which is just behind his house =)












Exclaimed! He's cute =D! I sound more like his fan right?






Taz & Bunny in Raya costumes! Uber cute too!











The bears are all kinda handicapped. Take a look at their eyes!










At last, no stupid uncles inside the cable cars as before. Hahaha. I think Jeff looks SHOOOO CUTE here! **shy shy**









Tell me, I never smoke, but why do I have such dark lips outline? Maybe I drink too much coffee?



Ok, when Jeff comes in, I really gave up. He's PRO at giving unsightly scenes to the cam.





Wahaha. I had a good laugh looking at all these pics.
