Right now I feel like pointing at my computer screen and tell my assignments to just bite me for all I care. Four weeks of school left...oh joy....I need to like slam my head somewhere. Oh no....cranky eyes....

Just an update of my life...I think my post title and this really short post kinda tells you how I'm feeling right now....

Three shoots, two days (thank god no monday).

On Friday, I helped michael out at his shoot as acting as a secretary. Man I suck trying to act like the Nanny. LOL it was hilarious. It was so fun cause the location is in the lift! The person's office was held in an office and Michael needed me to keep the lift doors close so I had to take the lift for a ride up and down the stairs. So I pressed all the buttons except level 8.

We ended up finishing at 9 that night, including packing up and bringing the things down. We had Macs at KAP and let at 11.

My shoot on Sunday was rather disappointing. Whatever we had shot, the camera produced terrible recorded audio and ended up having to reshoot again another time.

Opps class started. Got to go bye!!

Learning french is starting to grow on me :P I enjoy french at times :] so let's see how much I progress after my first written test. It may be awful but I'll just give it a try.

I got plenty of work to finish on Monday (school holiday) and I got my first sorta assignment due on Thursday. Thus I should get crackin. :\ things I should have done days ago still haven't been done yet. For one, my short film production papers work.

On Friday, I was going to take a cab home from Holland Village. I got into this cab and immediately noticed the guy was smoking. I thought ah fine he will put it out now that I am inside. He started to drive, windows down but still the cigarette in his mouth. The traffic light was still red and he still smoked. Less than a minute, I couldn't stand it and I told the taxi driver politely that I cannot stand the smell and would like to alight. He looked at the meter (it barely even changed from when he first started it...only what? 10 cents added to it?). He gave me that what the F face and I said, fine I will stay in the cab. Then he told me to get out.

I was like Fine! And just got out. He drove off. I mean seriously? Who smokes and drives at the same time with a customer in the back seat?? I got into another cab and asked the driver if it was against the rules to smoke while drive. He said yes and told me what I should have done earlier. I should have taken his license plate number and the location of the taxi stand.

Honestly, I should have but I didn't. Lesson learnt and in future, I will not hesitate. I hope.

It's been a rather busy weekend for me sorta. Had to study for today's test. Still am. Taking a three minute break to update here. I know this blog has become a little inactive than before. I do miss updating but I guess Deviant has been also taking some time of it hehehe

However both of us did not bring enough cash so we had to leave it. Besides Michael was in more dire need of new jeans and shirt. Went to Giordano and got himself a shirt and jeans. 40% off and it was well worth it. :] so glad he was really happy about it.

After that we went to Starbucks and I think the corner we sat in just wasn't good for internet connection. Went to National Library instead since the place wasn't conducive enough to study. So glad we went there because I got a lot of studying done.

Right now I am left with two topics to finish. SO I better get my ass back now and start reading. Again sorry for the inactivity recently or for quite awhile. Really miss updating and catching up with my neighbors :{

So see you guys later or tomorrow!

Today had my two written test. Can't say for sure what's the outcome but let's not touch on the subject. Finally relieved and now I have the whole week to study for Film History.

I am tired and drained, I am considering not going to school tomorrow. There is no class and I thought of just staying home tomorrow. However as much as I think about it....I might have to go....maybe I'll go on Friday to do the rest  of my project....still got time :P hmm?

But I may join my dear Michael for lunch tomorrow, keep him company :) since his class starts at 2. GOOD LUCK GIRLS for the Practical!! Wish you all the best!

Miss watching Ariel :) I kinda like Ursala :P she makes me laugh when she sings in this.

After lunch at Pizza hut, I had a very bad stomach ache. When to the toilet three times...diarrohea. Now it wasn't the food I ate at Pizza hut, I am very sure of that. Too fast to act. I am pretty sure it was last night's curry chicken :S was it a sourish and I had a tad bit too much. Sigh....so I was very upset in the stomach and you can say...it was a very unpleasant start today.

After the second trip, I felt like I needed to go home but I told myself, no...I came here to do my editing, if I don't stay, it is all going to do down the drain. So I stuck it for the last round trip and it finally settled. No more pain. Yup :] and I had a good editing throughout. Although I did not get to finish it, I will have time to complete it tomorrow I'm sure.

Oh and another piece of good news, I got the cart booked for the test tube collection that I am selling this friday. It's a school event thing. My group and I finally figured out where to go to do the bookings. Yup and we got the place.

Right now I am doing my podcast. I basically sort of finished my written report. Just trying to find a proper way of ending the report. Music wise is fine I guess, simple music should do. My voice Ah good enough :P

You know another piece of good news? After tomorrow, my project worries are over! It's the theories that come into fear now :\ help me! Looking forward to Dark Knight on Friday :] woohoo batman and joker!! I don't care, during the movie I am going to have my beef Bolognese hot dog and chilli fries!! Woot yum! Going to chunk some junk food down my stomach during the movie.

Ah...I think I best get back to my podcast. DARK KNIGHT!

I am a bit unsure if my presentation today will help me pass my project. I have around 29 or is it 28 slides in total. I am not nervous, hopefully it doesn't come up during my presentation. Sigh I got my clips, three in total that I want to share...and I think that covers the showing a 2-3 min clip part. Don't have to worry about that. I am a bit worried the film style that I notice from my director is wrong or whether my theory of her is correct.

Moving on....I am being a busy bee these few days. Right after my presentation, I got one week to do up my podcast. Let's see...during the making of my podcast I got my mum's work due. I have done the labels (need to send for printing), got the name cards done (except for the teacher) and the booklets and all...mum said to put it on hold first because she is going to make some changes. I got another assignment, to do up a certificate for the school.

I got to rearrange my room, well the files wise.

Onto deviant, I have decided to take some eye shots from there and make do with them in photoshop since I don't have time to take some of my own. Well, I hope it is all worth it. :]

I have to go get ready now cause my mum is going to pick me up and send me to school. This is my update for now....bzzzz...busy!!! :O

PS:
BRO!! DIZ!! How are you? Haven't heard from you on msn for a Long time! Hope to catch you online soon enough! Let me know how your internship is going!

So sorry vox for being a little bit behind updating. I have just been busy with projects and these two days, it has been one year for me and michael. So we celebrated :]. He came over for dinner last night and we watch Mock the week. Funny show hahaha I think I love their accent the most along with their deliverance of their dialogue. We both cracked up laughing so hard at it.

I am close to completing my Film History Presentation for next week. Now I won't have to do it last minute which means into the early hours of the mourning on monday and tuesday. I am a bit worried that I may not be answering the questions or anything. What I am more worried is my test that will be 20%. I failed my last one miserably....and I need to pass this one or I am doomed. Worst of all, I am not sure what to study. Sigh...sucks.

So far I only screwed up my audio test but I think I can pass cause my projects have been okay so far. I have been on a choking spree...coked on chilli, water, food....clipped my finger with my hair clip twice, threw the pillow or wait boaster in the air and it landed on my face.

According to Michael I am doing okay in my film history so far. I honestly hate film history, I prefer audio more. I get annoyed at Miss Mel at times...Just don't like her. Can't really say why. She just annoys me more than Hang Han. Skipped her class on Wednesday, not going to sit through a boring tutorial. Plus I haven't had the chance to skip her class so now I got my chance.  At least that whole time when I was at home, I cleaned up my room for once. Now I got space to put my files and such. All the junk has been thrown out and my room feels much better and less ancient.

Camera and Lighting so far has been okay, I got my notes all down to study for the upcoming theory test which I have a little confidence in. At least I am willing to study it more than Film History. We learned how to do the dollying yesterday...

Today was tiring. The soles of my feet hurt like crazy. I thought they were about to bleed when I was walking down the hill towards the entrance of school.

Arrived at school around 8.17am? Been setting up, adjusting the lights, everything and it wasn't easy on us. But I must say good job to all of us for the great effort. We girls have done it quite nicely :] and we are done! So now we can sit back and worry about one less thing about our project.

I think we were really on time with out schedule but time seem to have sped up after two o'clock. We realized we were running out of time and we had a hard time trying to get the lights the way we want it. Overall, I think we had a rather hard yet entertaining day. There were a lot of funny moments but it was nonetheless tiring. I think most of us wanted to just drop.

At the end, I think we cleared up pretty fast, thanks to the help of Eugene. :] he was very helpful to us. Today he looked like a hitman especially when wearing the gloves that I brought for him hahaha.

It started out as a feeling
Which then grew into a hope
Which then turned into a quiet thought
Which then turned into a quiet word

And then that word grew louder and louder
Til it was a battle cry

I'll come back
When you call me
No need to say goodbye

Just because everything's changing
Doesn't mean it's never
Been this way before

All you can do is try to know
Who your friends are
As you head off to the war

Pick a star on the dark horizon
And follow the light

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When it's over
No need to say good bye..

Now we're back to the beginning
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
But just because they can't feel it too
Doesn't mean that you have to forget

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
Til they're before your eyes

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye

You'll come back
When they call you
No need to say good bye..
