Episode: bollywood for the day
Monday, August 11, 2008

School was at 8 today. I came early. Actually in SP its study week, so a lot of students were at home, studying I guess.

Class was as per normal, but I try to make it slightly different. I played the Indian songs from Youtube from my laptop, and I never noticed that the songs were very nice. Every time I hear it, I feel that I have reenact the dancing scenes from those Bollywood movies..hehe.

Today, my group and I did our work. While my group members find the bottle needed for our assignment, I did up some packaging designs and finalise its logo. They came back, with a bottle that is as close to our final shape of our design beverage. They also brought back this fruit texture for the cap of the beverage.

The fake fruit is made out foam. We find it out when we tried cutting it to the shape of the cap.

For the day, we had to do some packaging design, so I did the standard shape of the bottle in Illustrator and printed six front and back shapes for my group members and myself. With the logo finalised, the packaging design had to be incorporated with it.

This was the best part of the day, using the logo and the standard bottle design that I printed, I took some time doing the packaging design with details. I tried making it as similar as an actual beverage product. These are the flavours that I did up: (top then bottom, from left to right) Orange, apple, lemon, peach, grape and original. Actually the flavours are just to show the different colours, the main thing is how I place the logo, and do up the design of the packaging.


It took me quite some time to do this, in detail. I used copic markers, normal markers, colour pencils and white pen to bring out the highlights. After doing so, I went home. It was around 5.30 or so. But then, my head felt giddy, due to not hydrating myself and my blood count have not replaced itself. It was a feeling like I was going to faint. This usually happen to me, especially when I spent too much time concentrating on my work rather then my health.

So, before going home, I went down to food court 3 to eat and had something to drink. I ate at Ayu's kitchen. I asked for Nasi Sambal Goreng, but the person gave me plain rice. I asked for chicken, the person gave me curry beef. I wonder what I would get if I asked for anything else..hmm.

Reached home at 6.30. Still feeling giddy, I went to sleep. At night, I continued doing my work after having dinner.
