Worst Day

Today is the day that I went to the site located at Jurong Island. Most of the companies there are related to oil refinery, waste water treatment plant.
Went there was very troublesome, as there is only 2 bus services that runs there. So most of the ppl who heard of going to Jurong Island, they will hesitate for a while, as to work in there the basic transportation you must have is either a car or a bike. Ppl mostly will leave the island to have lunch as there is such a rumour that the air in Jurong Island is very bad due to the emission of the fumes.
While there, took some pic of the instruments that is commonly used. There are the MOV (Motorised Valve) and another type of valve which i have forgotten

Well, also wan to congrate to the new launch of Plain Sunset newest ablum which is being launch at Zouk today.

End of a 3 Day Autodesk Course

Today marks the end of my 3 day Autodesk Course. During these 3 day course have been very relax and fruitful although I have already understand the basic function of Autodesk. This is the certificate of from Autodesk.
For those who do not know what is Autodesk, it is actually Autocad. A 2D or 3D modelling software.
Life attending the course was wonderful, no need to bother with work or the deadline although I still have to attend my course and go for my regular workout.
For the past week, life is not that wonderful. Have lost my phone, drop my wallet but luckily was able to retrieve it back. Yesterday attended my class and ended early but stayed around to chit chat with my lecturer and upon leaving the compound, something worst happen. I think someone must have been dancing the rain dance as it suddenly with no warning started to downpour. Not the normal one, like ma chiam going to have a tornado, (which is similar to the book cover that I did and shown in the previous post). And my lecturer came and told me must be due to my book cover design.
Luckily got a lift to the MRT.
Today went to the course and was also caught in the rain but a drizzle one though.
Today was a good workout but have to do my homework which is due tomorrow. Have to burn the long wick of the mid night lamp.
I saw this ad from Herren regarding design of their privilege card and had the idea to enter though.
Today also did a big damage = bought protein shake which cost 80+ for 2 bottles.
Well have to stop now.

My Assignment

This is the recent assignment which I am required to submit on this coming tuesday and I have yet to finish it. This assignment is to design a Book Cover entitled: Mind Lines Lines for Changing Minds.
I am stuck as to the positioning of the words. I think the colour for the word will be white since I have such a dark background.
Do give me some ideas, I can use some help.
Today just completed my Adobe Illustrator Course, and man was it tough; this is only the beginners level. Hard to imagine wat the advance level would be like.
Need to practice to get the hang of the software. Is a cold day, although there is no rain.

A Rainy Day

Today is the first day of my Adobe Illustrator course at ISDT.
Woke up at 7am to get ready and reach there by 9am and from there the course will start all the way to4 in the afternoon. Well can pretty much say that the whole sat was burned up. BUt for some of you maybe you will go out after the course to relax.

Took the MRT to Lavendar where I got my breakfast which consist of a cold Mr Bean Soy Bean Milk and one of their pancake with red bean fillings (yummy). Reach the classroom just to find that I was the only guy student at that point of time. Well, as the class started another guy came in, so thats makes 2 males student excluding the lecturer.

The course was quite an interesting one as we get to do hands on which the best than listening to the lecture. One of the things that we did was to draw a horus eye, which i will be posting up later .

A brief intro for the horus eye: Horus, represented as the falcon-headed god, was an important god in Egyptian legend. The symbol representing his eye, Eye of Horus, was a powerful symbol used to protect from evil. Pronounced "udjat" by the Egyptians, the Eye of Horus represents a human eye with the cheek markings of a falcon.



And also another image is the Aztec Sun Stone Pic shown on the rite. The Aztec Sun Stone, often called the Aztec Calendar Stone, encodes much numerological information in its symbols.















Was raining throughout the whole course and after which i went to take a hair cut. Well thats all for now. Take care.

Piss off day



Yeah, its finally Friday which is the last day of the week.
This is the day that most of the working people would be looking forward.
By right it should be day which I am also looking forward to but today is the most pissed off day that I can ever get.
Seems like in the current office which i am working in now does not suit me. I am adjusting myself to suit the working environment which I think which is most appropriate thing to do. Bu the problem is no matter how much I adjust, it does not seems to work. For instance, at this very moment, I was given task to do, and 1 of which is the calling to confirm the course which has been dragging for so long. I just dun understand that this thing can also be done by that guy and yet he pushed to me, fine I just do it. Called to the Innocom Tech where I was suppose to have a course there and yet I was put on hold for like 30 mins. They are so like just entertaining me only and not putting me through the right person whom I am looking for. Called the organizer and she hand up on me.Damn am I pissed off. I know that my temper is causing me to say what I am saying and maybe some of you would say that I am paid to do what they ask me to do.
Well, after attending 2 class of the diploma course that I signed up for has been enriching for me. Learned alot of things and very fun though. Will be taking up the illustrator 2 day course tomorrow and the day after and is from 9-4pm meaning that the weekend is been burned. Worst is that this is only beginners class and there is no more advance classes already while other adobe course have all the way to the advance level. After taking up this illustrator course will be aiming to take up the photoshop course, and maybe indesign as well as dreamwweaver or flash.
all for now. Back to work

Rainy Day

Today is a rainy day.
Went to Armies Workshop to do my tank model. Recently I have gotten back to doing tank models, gunpla aka gundam plastic models. Got my first MG Destiny Gundam. MG = Master Grade.
Well, started to do the tank model first before going on to the MG which is more expensive kit. The place I bought the gundam is at a place called Kachtung, where I met Matthew where he introduce me to Armies.
Learn lots of things about painting and modeling tanks. That is a very nice place and is a place that I would spend my free time there even though it is quite far from my house, similar to my workplace journey.
Today after doing a few hours of modeling, went to meet up with mother and sister to go for some GSS spree.
Bought a few clothes from Giordano ware house sale, and G2000 clothes.
Will have to buy things from the Art friend which is going to use in my course and the homework that I have yet done.
So many ppl, finally seen the true color of the ppl, everywhere ppl rushing to grab the items on sale.
Erm but I am also like them ha ha ha ha
I know it very cold. Hope I din freeze you .

Back Again.

After missing for so long, I have decided that i should come back and try blogging again since that it has become such a popular thing beside facebook.
Well, back to the blogging.
Lets make it a fresh start.
After graduating from QUT Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering, finding a job is not as easy as I think it would be that is from what I have experience. All those who have said that the market has picked up, that is rubbish.
I came back and took like 3 months and more to find a job. During that period I have been temping at a bank which I believed is the most enjoyable one that I have ever been.
People are friendly, caring and I made lot of friends whom I still keep in contact with till present.
Also made some "big sisters". 
Currently I am working in an engineering company which is abit off from what i have studied which is mechanical engineering. This company is more on electrical but I do learn lot from this company. i feel that it is beneficial to me as I am exposed to various knowledge.
Currently also pursuing a diploma course in Multimedia and Communication Design @ ISDT.
Started 2 lesson, and I can feel the tiredness kicking in, but I am sure that I will be able to overcome it once I have gotten used to it.
Now that the GSS has started, I was so tempted to go and shop for some of the things which I wanted, or should I say always wanted?
Here is the sample of the shopping list which I was thinking:
  1. A new bag: Adidas/Nike
  2. A leather shoe:
  3. A new phone, SE W850
  4. Clothes: G2000, Adidas
But it is something which I must think carefully before I action.
well thats all for now.
Hope that I can continue this blogging.
