Episode: rendering day
Thursday, August 28, 2008

Got out of bed at around 6+ and looked outside my window. It was raining heavily. It has been a very long time since it rained like this last. The weather turned out to be very cold for the rest of today.

I went to school at 11am with my A3 papers and Copic markers to do some rendering for my portfolio. When I was about to enter the studio, I smelt something awful. Something burning. So, I went in the studio. The smell got worst. My lecturer was there at that time. When I told him about the burning smell, he went sniffing around. He had flu, so his sense of smell was not that good. After using our noses to figure out what was creating that burning smell, we found out that this was the cause.

It was the air conditioning controller. As you can see, the one on the left has some parts of it burned and melted. Soon, Paul came in. He noticed it too. Only then he told us that whenever it rains, the roof will leak and hit the controller. No wonder it melted. Due to the heavy rain this morning, it leaked some of the water to the controller and it seems that the water hit the circuits and causing it to burn up and melt the controller, thus producing that awful burning stench.

My lecturer called in the technician and they removed the melted controller.

They also opened up the door located by the side of our studio. I had never seen it opened, so this was a first for me.

The studio was cleaned up and things are kept in the cupboards and drawers by the side. Ivan, Zhai Wei, Wee Tyng and Paul came to do it.

I did not help, as I was too engrossed doing rendering for my portfolio.

This was my N'level Design and Technology submission.

This was my O'level Design and Technology submission.

This was the trophy design I made when I was in year one of my course.

And, this was my last years Muji competition submission.

After that, around 4.30pm, Ivan and myself went to West Mall to catch a movie. We got there and bought our tickets. The movie started at 5.30pm, so with 20 minutes left we got to the food court to eat before the movie.


The Chicken rice was not that bad. It was actually quite nice.

Soon, the movie was about to start, and we made our way to the cinema. Bought some nachos and drinks into the theater. We watched..

The movie was an hour and 30minutes long, but when you are there to watch the movie, you would feel that you have been sitting there for a longer time. The reason was that the events in the movie doesn't seem to have a break. The plots and scenes kept going and going. It felt like they are trying to compress so much scenes into one episode. Well, the graphics was alright to me. Though some would complain that the animated characters do not resemble the actors on screen at all, I only agree to a certain extent. If you were to watch the Clone Wars on Cartoon Network, the character resembles those characters more.

Gt home at around 7.30pm, and I crashed. It was a quite tiring day. For the rest of the day, it was just as per normal. Thats it for today.
