homework

For business and client management class, we're supposed to come up with a business plan in the food industry. I'm not exactly the businesswoman type but I love love love love to watch the Asian Food Channel, especially Restaurant Makeover. Igor is cute. So I came up with an idea for a pretty much hi-class cafeteria (think Subway, Ikea foods) which is something I think Sunway is severely lacking... and one week later I realize I can't really imagine the actual concept materializing in real life lol.

Ah but the work process is gonna be lots of fun.

Okay I'm pooped U_U nights!

ah life.

modelling's sort of done, now's the time for texturing!


woo...


its so hot and humid here U_U. ugh, in trying to save more electricty by not using the aircond unless super necessary, i take more baths, thus using more water, more soap and electricity for the hair dryer. though I guess in the long run I still save more. I wish someone of divine powers would pick us up and drop us somewhere a little further from the equator where its cooler T_T maybe a little near hong kong. that might be nice.

oh college.

its back to the never-ending grinding of assignments. I hope I have enough strength and patience to not just pass, but kick ass this time. I've been vowing to kick Randy's ass at the beginning of every term, but my sleepiness and laziness always got in the way. However, this term will be different. I can feel it in my bones.

i will not play until work is done. i will not play until work is done. i will not play until work is done!

its Malaysian

its Malaysian to think that anything Malaysian is hopeless.

when i read reviews and comments about anything Malaysian-made gone wrong, it wont be complete unless there's a following comment by someone saying "wat to do? made in Malaysia ma"

its my new pet peeve.

its agitating whenever i hear it and i hear it often, but its to be expected coming from defunct products of Malaysia like them.

I attended this 'conference' called Supermotion during KL Design Week, where reknown international graphic designers and animators were invited to share. Okay, where organization is concerned, the conference earned an ABSOLUTE FAIL from me. The host sounded like he got attitude, the auditorium was darkened except on stage and a speaker was talking, yet phones were ringing, people were talking and lots of camera lights were flashing (it should be banned). When on stage lights needed to be turned off for a projection, the poor speaker had to ask not once, but a hundred times, and I could actually hear people in the control room (I sat far back) laughing and having their own conversations, drowning out the voice of the speaker. I dont suppose they thought it was soundproof despite the control room obviously not having a solid piece of transparent medium between it and the auditorium. You'd think after the first time they'd start paying attention to each of the speaker's stage light needs but no, it took atleast 5 - minutes for the Speaker to get the crew to turn off the lights everytime they needed to show something on the projector. Okay I sort of digressed, but this part's related to the subject : one of the sound cables decided to die in the middle of a screening(took atleast 20 mins for them to run up and down looking for one), so the auditorium lights were all lighted, everything was put to a halt, people were groaning, and as the speaker was asking for a replacement, one woman screamed "Malaysia Boleh!" ever so sarcastic'ly for all asunder to hear.

Now what the fuck that was supposed to mean, I dont know. But it definitely wasn't the slightest bit encouraging or patriotic. If I wasnt so exhausted (rushed to the conference after 2 nights up and a final), I'd have jumped to my feet, found the offending woman, and whacked her toothless.

I dont suppose the invited speakers will come back here. We've annoyed them enough, though I was never so ashamed to have a person like her a fellow countrymen, apart from our beloved tax leeching fat cats, Mat Rempits - and yeah the list goes on, but the truth is, its not that bad. Sure where mentality is concerned, most of us have a lot to catch up on cuz what we should know in this age isnt included in our severely lacking education system and afailureofa Moral Subject and its not like our teachers or parents would know or could teach us since they weren't taught about them in the first place.

I mean, how was anybody supposed to know its rude to squat on a toilet seat when the only toilet they've ever seen was one dug out in their own backyard? How's anybody to be considerate and look at the big picture, when all they've been trained to is to take care and look no where else beyond themselves? and how is anybody to expect much from teachers when their quality's set so low and the pay so little? How are the Chinese and Malays supposed to get along when they continuously build up a language barrier between themselves (applicable to Chinese school students whose mandrin is impeccable but suck at other languages, same with the Malays and their Malay). How are our self declared privileged Malay egomaniacs supposed to know they're nothing but hot gas when they've never seen a true representation of a Malaysian face besides the conceited ass they see infront of the mirror?

Yes! I hear and see you complaining, but it's not like you're gonna get your fat ass out of your comfort zone and do something about it. So shut up already. Write a letter, hold your own conference, organize a campaign. Or just do it in the little things, like watch your racist mouth when you're in public, and try to befriend someone who isnt in your own little racist groupie.
