Gunned Felines Tuesday, October 31, 2006

BOO! Happy Halloween! Hahah. Well, i didnt do anything special, just put on all black clothes and grew... i mean wore my vampire fangs to school. I was surprised maja didnt find out. See, i put them on just before i left the house and tried to talk as little as possible... not really cause it would be seen, but my speech would be impaired. Then at 1st while i was packing, she asked me 'what you got in your mouth?' i thought i was caught for sure and i know she wouldnt have let me leave the house with those things on. So i was like looking away saying 'my mouth got wat?' in like an irritated tone. Then as i was putting on my shoes she asked 'why you cannot face me like that?' and i just tried to close my mouth as far as possible, turned round, looked at her, took my bangles from her then said bye as i walked away. Wah lucky.



There werent as much people dressed up as i thought... Only one group of dunno wat course all wore fake blood and there was this one girl ala gothic cat. And speaking of cat, there was this black cat in my way while i was walkin out to the bus stop. Then when i stopped to take its photo, it turned to me with its slit yellow eyes and gave a low meow.


ooh, bad luck.

Anyways, the new block has started and the timetable like sucks. 9-12 then 12-3. 3 frinkin hours of nothin to do. Its gonna be useful next week tho... cause at least i'll have sumore time to print.

I dont particularly favour either of the modules. there's darkroom process, something like basic photo which i didnt like, except with more emphasis on the actual printing. I have to go out at 6.15 tomoro morning to go shoot at mosquito land cause we are free to choose what we wanna shoot... which is at least better than terrence's assignment. I am so gonna spend so much money on printing paper... haiz. And culture and expression is such a bore. I was like falling asleep in class today when they were showing this gladiator show which was not only pointless, but also very tacky cause it was narrated in cantonese. And Benjamin is kinda poor thing cause he's the only imd student in our whole class of vsc ppl, so like i'm the only person he knows( from pri sch you know). Haiz... i've got so many things to do by friday.

Mama, we're meant for the flies. Saturday, October 28, 2006

Damn, my computer internet connection something wrong now i have to retype my post.

Well i went to hmv before school on wednesday to go get The Black Parade cause it was the 25th and the website said it would be out on the 23rd. But they didnt have it. So i asked the guy at the counter when the thing would be comin in and the himbo said he didnt know... even tho later that night there was the ad on tv sayin it was out in stores everywhere. He should be fired, or better... shot. So i went today again after school.

The album is really good. I cant help but to headbang or tap along to it. Its less punky than the previous one and there are more slow songs. The illustrations and photo on the lyrics sheet are also very nice. Ouh and there's this song whose title isnt on the cover or lyrics and its like almost 3 mins but the first 1 and a half minutes is just silence. Weird. Its cute tho... like a revamped kids song.

Ah, figure drawing is finally over. But i'll miss having both sy and luqman in my class. As usual i left my final assignment for last minute. I started at 11pm and finished at 6am, with some breaks in between...but it was still 6 solid hours of work. I'm happy with the end result, tho there were really awesome ones in class. Sy's detail and accuracy was amazing, darren's looked like a complete scene and looked like a lot of work got put in, one was in colour and looked kinda pop art, one was in... i'm not sure wat media( i think maybe watercolor) whose technique was damn super and luqman's.... well, looked porny. Even he admitted it himself. I wonder wat richard is gonna say.

Anyways, on the way from heeren to far east, i saw this guy who i think was malay but i couldnt tell for sure cause i never saw his face properly. Y? He had this big-ass afro-ish hair; an almost spherical mass of curly fluff almost as wide as his shoulders. It was so outrageous... and not to mention tacky. I was walking behind him i noticed that some people actually pointed or laughed or both. I guess singaporeans do have a sense of humor. How does the foxy cleopatra wannabe even sleep? Oh well, some people love attention.(before you turn that back on me, please. my way is far more subtle) On a totally different note, i saw anwar too. Hasnt changed much... a bit less botak ony.

ITS NOT FAIR! Faith and gar meng saw jade, dunno wher. I wanna SEE! I'd like go right up to her and like ask for a photo with her and an autograph or something. Argh! i must go orchard more often now.

Celebrating Anti-Hunger Monday, October 23, 2006

I cant believe i forgot to mention that went out with sy and sh after school on thursday. We eased sh into losing his subway virginity and got movie tix. Then we went to far east coz sy wanted to get those elastic hairband thingies and he looked ridiculous in it. Then after the other 2 bought tops from springfield, we went to the theatre. The Prestige is like one of the coolest movies this year. It had a mildly confusing but interesting storyline. Its so twisted the way they keep backstabbing each other. Awsome. Well worth my 8 bucks.

Hurrah today is the last day of fasting. Finally i can snack till the cows come home. But its a bad thing coz i'll be spending money that could go into my N93 fund. Ouh so today was my turn to model again and unlike the others who let their poses be directed by richard, i chose my own way but paid dearly for it. My arms were so tied and my left arm and shoulder vibrated a lot. Tim was like "you ok o not" but please, i can endure for certain causes.


Fierce!

Ouh... here's the composition for my assignment. The title is 'i dont think its working'. Its supposed to be like a girl sitting on a coin-operated horse looking at a boy trying to put a coin into a fat woman's butt crack. Crap, i cant upload it, i think its too big a file. Damn.

Bendomolina! Sunday, October 22, 2006

Well, i dyed my own hair yesterday, and cooped up in the the bathroom, it was like torture. The fumes of the bleach were stinging and suffocating and like i had to take gasps of air at the tiny windows every minute. Well i couldnt open the door cause i was half naked and my bathroom doorway directly faced the next block. So yeah i had to wallow in the pollution. It turned out all right... nothing special. I wanted and expected it to be lighter and greyer but its just a normal pleasant brown. But i think i seriously compromised the quality of my hair coz of this.

I managed to take all the photos i needed for the assignment today, but i dont have the proper paper so i cant start tonight. Ah well, i'll just catch up on some much-needed sleep. But looks like i'll have to do an all-nighter on thursday night...more like wee hours of friday morning.

The Haunting Past Friday, October 20, 2006

Well, after this only one more week of figure drawing, then the start of next block. Like finally. I dunno if i'll be able to finish my final assignment in time. See he gave us 5 titles, all of them very suggestive to sexual references. We have to come up with a composition of 3 ppl to represent the title. I chose 'i dont think its working' and i havent taken my pictures yet. Hopefully my models(my nephew and niece) will be at home tomoro so i can start this weekend. But i still cant find a mechanical horse. You know those kinds you put 20 cents in for it to sway for like 2 mins. Somehow they've become extinct, or replaced by those big new car ones that cost 5 times more a ride. I'll have to scour neighbourhood centrals to find one. Hiaz.

Guess wat? I had to make the toughest decision ever this year... to cut my hair. Yes! Chopped it all off. Well no, i'm not bald. But there was a fair bit of deforestation. I feel kinda naked. Hahah. Ok, this is before...





And after...





Startling ain't it? Get used to it. Hahah.

Here's the pic i promised

This is a bad angle i know.

Haiz... this block seems to be dragging by so slowly. It feels like the third week but its only second. Maybe its because school starts at 3 and ends at 6. Or maybe its because i'm hungry the whole time. And classtime is really tiring. Not only are we standing 95% of 3 hours, we have to draw 3 figures which, besides being very rushed, tires my right arm due to drawing on a nearly horizontal surface.

Went to break fast at tm pastamania after sch with luqman and sy and the latter also had to get a gift for sh. Tried to find the mens folio at times and popular but to no avail. I need hairtyle inspiration and men mode is too ex(well not really but i'm really thrifty with money these days). Looks like i have to go down to borders one of these days to get it.

The ride home was pissy. Old men suck. 1st, this fat apek sat just sat down beside me and i barely had time to move my bad before his old ass hit the chair. He's either blind or completely stupid. He smelled, to try and classify, like a big fat rotten prawn cracker. Smells bug me a lot... just so you know. And then, the fat hag started digging his polluted nose like it was the most dignified thing in the world. Then after he got up and went to the seat behind me, naturally i leaned forward. I though it was over until this other old guy sat down and while casually talking to his wife in a language never in my life i have heard, he crossed his legs and the bottom of his shoe was scraping my pant leg. I tried to push back but the nerveless bitch didnt even notice. I of course made sure to push his leg when i got up and got off.

The Fragile Future Wednesday, October 11, 2006

Ok, see i've started this thing and now me, sy and luqman are like making fun of someone... whithout his knowledge of course. If it was sy i would torture him mercilessly tho. Back-fat betty(if you've seen white chicks, you'll know this phrase)/jellybean(cause thats his shape from the side). I not gonna say who( i truly apologise if i've hurt your feelings) but this is a quite accurate model of him.


the legs were supposed to be longer but not enough kneadable eraser.

We've started drawing models in figure drawing. Not actual models of course. So today it was tim, darren and my turn but i only found out today that there's supposed to be the director's talk at 4. So there were rumors that lesson was cancelled and i was pissed cause like i already wore the specific clothes. While hanging aroung business school with some others, jocelyn smsed me to say got class, so i rushed back and tim was on the block already. He asked me if i wanted to go 1st...like duh. Cause we were doing only one today before the talk. And richard said that today wasnt even counted... and we have to come back on friday too. Tuls. Posing was kinda agonizing on my knees and heel. I'll put up the picture the next post cause sy hasnt sent it to me yet.

Anyways, as usual moses was bulshitting a lot. Tryin to be funny but half the time not. He keeps going on in this surprised voice like re-enacting some unbelievable sexcapade. I dont like him. Like he's trying to act friendly but actually he's like pissy. Luckily this time his talk had at least some substance. Not to my liking tho... about like technology and moving forward and watnot. My area is good ol' pencil and paper drawing. Haiz. If only i lived in an older age. But then again, in that time, there wouldnt be such things as the N93.

The Clear Obscurity Saturday, October 07, 2006

Well, yesterday, as i was going into the toilet, i slipped on the entryway and fell dramatically, head hitting the door, elbow grazing the floor and my foot... i dunno what i hit but it was painful as hell. So i looked down and my toe wasnt really like bleeding a lot, but oh my did it hurt. I couldt do anything for like a good 15 mins. And by later that night, it looked like this...


I know. Disgusting.

Went for the nokia starlight cinema with luqman yesterday. We met up, got food at bk even though i wanted subway but the queue at the latter was way too long. We walked to the padang and settled ourselves down at about 6.50 but by the time the movie started, it was like 8.15. The place was pretty crowded, a lot of couples. Not my fault Savage didnt want to come. Fast and the furious tokyo drift. I wouldnt say it was a bad movie. Neither was it very good. It was watchable, very little storyline but the action was good, however by the last race, i was bored with all the drifting.




The big-ass projector


The inflatable screen. And thats the haze in the background

I hate the bloody indonesians. They are like dufus stupid. Its not like this is the first time this has happened. It looked like bangkok in the day in town yesterday. And after the show, it was like i was in the mirrormask world. Everything had hazy edges and lights were outlined into visible beams. It wal like the end of the world or something, like it wasnt really night, but there was so much soot from supposed volcano eruptions that blocked out the sun. When i was nearing home and the streets were quite empty, i was like half anticipating the silent hill siren to go off. Seriously. As i'm blogging now, the psi is 150. Those stupid indonesian farmers are killing us. And the authorities suck at enforcing the law.

I'm happy that the evanescence album is growin on me succesfully. Although i still dun like like 2 or 3 songs... and never will i think.

Fragmented Picture Frames Tuesday, October 03, 2006

New semester is here. Figure drawing is ok i guess. Its pretty light so far. Kinda diff from the other modules cause like there are no tables or chairs... just easels, so its kinda tiring. And its kinda awkward to draw upright. Well i'm in between sy and luqman... kind of a bad idea cause the suanning is magnified. But i guess i would be bored otherwise. Jocelyn cut her hair and looks a lot different. Tim's hair is whorrible. Well, its not exactly hair. Its shaven with a tail behind. I dont know him enough to make fun of it. Shannon was wearing these like superly short shorts on monday and i'm sure if there were like a dress code in sch, she would be violating it. But she's still nice and sugar sweet.

Today i went to meet up with luqman befor sch to get the new Evanescence cd. But i arrived at like 12.30 when when we were supposed to meet at 1, so i shopped around a while. There were so many nice clothes around, topman and zara, especially jackets. But then i'm saving up for my N93 so i can only look. There was this really nice one that resembled those hotel bellboy kinds... $239.

I'm disappointed with the album. Its kinda dreary. Like you would play it at some goth or halloween party where it just oozes in the background. The 1st song was misleading cause its pretty nice. I hope the MCR one that comes out later this month is better. For now, i hope by listening to it more, the songs will grow on me. If not, i wasted 19 bucks.

Well after that we went to art friend and wanted to get the newsprint paper. Thing is, they only had a bundle of 500 pcs which, besides being heavy, was incredibly awkward to carry. We had to take turns lugging that A1 sized thing(it wasnt rolled, so it kept like curling and flopping). Whorrible manual labour. Walked all the way from taka, took the mrt to tampines then cabbed to sch. Sometimes it was in front of me, obstructing my view, other times,it was on my head, killing brain cells. We arrived just a little late to class. My back aching. Looks like its gonna hurt more tomoro morning.
