I just want to waste my time blogging for now because I still cant tally the figures for January. Im damn bloody irritated with numbers, with this place, with these people, with this job! Just 2 more days and I'll say
GOOD BYE, TAKE CARE, ALL THE BEST. Arrrrrrrrrrrgh. Pardon me for the following boring context.

I worked for only an hour on Mon. It wasn't planned. I tried to clean my contact lens with Mary's solution but it got worse, so I threw away my right lens. With a clear vision only on the left, I figured that it was a gd opportunity to take leave and so I did. I reached home by 11am and rested till the evening.
Zirui and I headed to the Singapore Art Museum for the cocktail party cum exhibition hosted by NUS Architecture. The exhibition, Still (Want to Matter), is a compilation of hypothetical projects dealing with materiality of art spaces and the dialogue between old and new. The students were to design the future of the Old Supreme Court and City Hall. We were taken on a tour to see their models and boy, it was awesome! Every part of a model is designed n planned in detailed with supported reasons, like to bring out the style of a famous architect or to follow by the theme. It was never to be indifferent or unique. What I've learnt was that every design is already unique on its own, what is more in depth is the reason behind the idea and the style that it brings out. Moreover, like what the Dean had said, architecture is beyond books. We can study everywhere because no place on Earth has no architecture. Unlike a dentist where the mouth is all they see, architects have the world to explore. Well, that was a joke he often crack to his dentist friend but I thought it made some sense to a certain extent. Anyway, there was also a prize ceremony for some outstanding year 1s. I've seen their models and couldn't agree further that they really have the brains for architecture.
That night, I was very inspired to design and make models that are good enough to be showcased in the exhibition next year. Yuting, Gambatte! :)

I took leave again on Tue because it was a rare chance to watch a cheap movie and savour cheap Billy Bombers with Bi Zui Seah. Oh yes, here's sth you wont believe. Leather Ark, Tinkerbell and Challenger opened their flagship stores at EASTPOINT MALL! I've never thought that I'd see familiar brands in Eastpoint hahaha! Whats more, a new n cheap jap food store opened beside Aji Ichiban! I bet there'll be more surprises in time to come at Eastpoint Mall! WATCH OUT!!! I'll update you guys!
Heh Heh :D
