Episode: three in one
Wednesday, June 25, 2008

Got up, and got to school. Even though today I had no school, I had to come to do my assignments with my group members. On the platform of the MRT, this guy approached me and asks,"Are you a graphic designer?". I was wondering why that Indian guy asked me that, but I answered that I was not a graphic designer, but a experience and product designer. He ask me quite a few things, and then it hit me when he asks about the folio that I was carrying. It seems that my design portfolio caught his eye. After that, I did not talk to the guy anymore. It was weird and all, in one of the questions he asks, "Where am I working?", I answered that I am still schooling, but in my heart, I wished that someday I could answer that question with a company's name.


Anyways, I reached my studio and than get started on the Azimuth cartoon music video. I had to draw Mr.Roboto walking this time. While Ivan was scanning the drawings that I did yesterday and compiling it to make the animation, I looked around and saw the toy cow. I wonder why it was quiet all his while when it is suppose to moo whenever people press its belly(My classmates always did that). I took a look at it and found out that the cable that makes the sound was pulled out. They said that it was Kah Hui who spoils it. After some adjustments by me, I manage to fix it. It was mooing again.

Glenn was on the radio this morning. On 938 Live, speaking about the 50+ workshop. It was cool. Anyways, soon we decided to go to Chinatown, but there were some complications, so, in the end only my group went to there together. Ivan was suppose to come along, but I can see he is pissed off. So, as he did 'Aidieation' with his group members, my group members and myself went to Chinatown.

Before that, we went to Plaza Singapura to eat at Long John Sliver's. It has been a while since I eat there. It was nice.


My group, who also seem to have the same GEMs at me, decided to go Clarke Quay to do one of the assignments, so I followed along.


Before we went off to Chinatown, Carolyn brought us to this pub. Since it was still too early, it was closed. We just went to take a look from outside. It was very interesting. The pub had a hospital concept. From the seats, to the environment, it was all hospital theme. The lights was those from an operating theater lights. Carolyn even said that the employees there even wear those standard dress code for doctors and nurses and the drinks were like those water bags that usually seen in wards, where it is hung above and the person had to suck on the tube and the drink would flow downwards. In other words, it sounds awesome.


Next, you would recognise the place when you see these signs on MRT stations.


Yup, we reached Chinatown. The place there was very, how can I say this, it was very old. Simply due to the residents living in that area. It seems that it is a place enjoyed by many old people. When I look around, I know why. The place is filled with china national ladies. They were there to so called 'entertain' the uncles living in that area. Some were there for sight-seeing. Many cheeky old man over there.


Over there, we had to go around take pictures of the place. Experience the surroundings over there. We also had to interview a couple of 50+ people over there. Our first victim was this guy who was an SP student, graduated in the 70s. He was alright. Quite open and ready to talk. The other one just gave one word answers. My group members did the approaching and asking of questions, because (1) most of them do not speak English and (2) I was shy..hehe.


After that, we met a lot of our classmates there doing the same assignment. We got together and relaxed for a while, walked around the place before we went home. Some of them went to have dinner with our lecturer, but some went home, just like me.


Got home at around 7.30. Yeah! Just in time to watch Puteri on TV..hehe. The rest of the day, I simply did my work, bit by bit. Today, I am glad to do three things out of my assignments. The Mr.Roboto, GEMs and Chinatown interviews.
