Still In Ipoh

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Health & Beauty | Tuesday 23 February 2010 11:49 am

I’m still in Ipoh until tomorrow morning (Wednesday) because I can’t skip my class this week because my assignment is due and tomorrow night I have Lose Big Programme launch. It’s a programme designed by The Biggest Loser Asia Blue Team’s trainer Dave Nuku that makes you lose weight in 13 weeks. It’s something like Biggest Loser except you won’t be on TV and probably have to pay a huge sum of money for the training. It’s catering those with BMI over 25 (which is overweight) or body fat over 35%. I’m a little bit lower than that, still within normal BMI but I still wanna join and tone my body if I can.. and within my budget. No one is hiring right now.. well those good jobs that is. I don’t mind part time job but not the one that requires energy because I want to lose weight in less than 3 months. I haven’t been searching for job but still it feels like I’m part of those fresh graduates that can’t get any employment. Broke and unemployed.

Anyways. I have a blog for a contest that I’m gonna write later so yeah. I’m so glad I got my BlackBerry Storm2 because at least I can still use it as a modem so I can still be online when my connection is fucked. The speed is slow as hell but at least I can still be online. Right now my house net is connected. I don’t get it… how can it stay disconnected for a long time, and get connected at certain time for a short while. Well I’m gonna go do my logo design now. Ciao.

Mental People

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Random | Wednesday 27 January 2010 4:20 pm

People at my college are mental.. seriously, someone need to report them to the ministry or something for threatening us with ridiculous matters. Who hired them to be involved in education because they don’t fit there. Urgh this is giving me stress even the best night creams can’t help with my current breakout of stress zits. I wanna blog about the stupidity but  I don’t want to be the ‘most wanted blogger’ for saying crap and getting sued.

I have class tomorrow, urgh hate this.. it feels so weird to go back to just one class per semester and the rest of the days I’m free as a bird. Nothing to do.

Back in PJ

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Random | Monday 18 January 2010 11:40 am

I’ve been back in PJ since last Tuesday and I’ve been sorta busy since I got back. I drove from Ipoh at around 10 am and reached PJ at 12 pm.. then later that day I went to college to ask for my timetable and result and tada….

I got A- for my final year project!

OMG. That’s sorta unexpected. I was thinking maybe a B or B- because I didn’t have much comment on my work, the guest assessor was explaining long stuff on editing/movies, and the only comment was negative (well a bit negative).. but my lecturer said I did good even though I didn’t think I did. Well it’s all good. It’s like this heave burden is finally lifted. When we did the Graduation Showcase, it means that we’ve already passed, but it was painful to wait to know what my grade is.

And I got B for my Public Relations!

Which is another surprise because I thought I’d get a C- or worse yet, D because seriously.. I like the subject but I HATE studying for it.. I hate written based exam.. especially it was only 7 weeks so everything was rushed, and I was too busy with my final project. I didn’t write anything for the essay part in paper.. and I thought shit, I really screwed it now. However I did do good job in the assisgnments so I guess that helped. Urgh, never again. At least I didn’t have to take consumer behavior or marketing. I like marketing but eh..

My wanted elective is available this semester! I’m so fricken happy cuz that’s the easiest subject.. and it’s not written exam. My DTP class is big, and luckily Jackie, Yong and Steph are taking it this semester so I’m not alone and being the odd one out.

Well I’m back here in PJ so I can do some stuff.. I wanted to find a place to move out but gah it’s gonna be so troublesome.. to find long distance movers then move all my stuff.. and I hate renting place cuz it’s not my place, I don’t live by other people’s rules so screw that.

Back to School?

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life | Monday 11 January 2010 5:11 am

I have to be quick cuz I don’t know when my net will disconnect again. I’m starting to think that it’s wiring problem here in Ipoh but I won’t know until I go back to PJ and see if I can connect in my PJ place. If can’t then I’d have to call TM Net and make an appointment for them to come and check. At least they’ve been checking regularly if my net has been fixed or not which is surprising.

Well today is 11th of Jan, which means first day back at college. Of course I”m not going for the briefing because there’s simply no point. Urgh, I still hate myself for having to go back for one class when everyone else is done with college and has started working.

I wonder when result will be out because I”m nervous. I know they said if I don’t pass the final I would hear about it before the graduation showcase and since no one heard anything, I think everyone passed. Thing is, now it’s the matter of the grade and the CGPA. Since I still have one more subject, I still can’t count CGPA and I also have the worry of passing this class that I’m taking. I swear to God if DTP class is not available I’m gonna be pissed to the max. Well the good thing is I’m still a student so I can still get student privileges for another 3 months. I wonder when are they gonna make graduation announcements for us? I just checked the 2010 academic calendar and they have another graduation showcase in May which I don’t know for whom.. but surprisingly there’s a graduation showcase in May, August and December? Hm. So I wonder what’s gonna happen to our graduation convocation? Mix it with the May graduates or go ahead.. because the dean did say that the convo could be in April.. or it could be in June or even as late as end of year. For my old college it would only be in December. I hope it’s in June because then I wouldn’t worry about my subject in case I have to take the exam one, which God forbid I hope I don’t have to. Public Relations class was enough stress for an exam-based class for me.

Well I should be back in PJ tomorrow.

Farah Faucet

Posted by Tany | College, Random | Saturday 9 January 2010 6:58 am

Oh look, TOTO brand toilet, Toto sinks, faucet….. It’s a cute brand… what, after you use the loo, you click your red shoes twice and you’ll be at the land of oz? Or back in Kansas? :P Suddenly I”m reminded of something.. I saw nigahiga’s video and her talking about person who died last year and you know Farah Fawcett? He made fun of the name, instead of Fawcett, he was like what is Farah ‘Faucet’.. so he showed a faucet and said the faucet’s name is Farah or the brand.. that’s funny.

Ok have to quickly do other stuff before net disconnects again.

Happy New Year 2010

Posted by Tany | College, Random | Saturday 2 January 2010 3:21 am

Happy New Year.

My first day of new year was boring. I spent my morning going out for breakfast with mom and her friend and her friend ended up losing her handphone >.< What a great start to a new year. I still don’t know what I’m gonna do within this 3 months beside go to one class and try to lose weight at the gym. Should I get a job? Or should I wait it out first, and learn some skills like illustrator and flash and improve my editing and after effects skills before applying? Or should I just get a part time job instead that has nothing to do with film industry? I don’t know.

I can’t wait to go back to PJ and figure out what I’m gonna do and start a new life. I’ve been so damn bored in Ipoh and basically let my few days of 2009 be boring as fuck. And my closing for 2009? My uncle’s mother in law passed away so my last day of 2009 was spent at the funeral in the morning. Very depressing. However after that I went shopping .. nothing beats retail therapy.

On a different note, I am now completely addicted to Adam Lambert. God why are the hot ones gay?

Well I’m gonna go do nothing now. Thinking of getting an insurance? Get your insurance quote easy online.

Final Year Project Part 2

Posted by Tany | College, Random | Monday 30 November 2009 8:42 pm

I wanna talk about my final year project that I’m supposed to continue few days ago but I got soooo busy. But today I’ve been to a reshoot, and got home from college by 8 pm so I have to delay this post. I have to capture clips, take a shower, eat my dinner, watch Awan Dania/take a rest before I have stay up all night doing editing. I’m a machine.

I’ll continue this blog soon. I’ll probably edit this or make a new post.
Er, what the heck is Mopar parts?

Final Year Project (Mock Assessment)

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life | Friday 27 November 2009 4:17 am

IT’S OVER.

Actually it was over last week. It was quite brutal. At first I thought it’d be this week that we have the final assessment, but suddenly on Tuesday, I received a call saying the mock presentation has been changed to the next day, which means Wednesday. WTF!

Not only I still had some shots to be reshot, it also meant that I had to reshoot, edit + export the video and finish production report and proposal all in less than 24 hours. It was madness. Pure madness.  I had to rush everything, multitasking on pc and laptop at the same time editing and doing my proposal. I didn’t even sleep. I finally finished everything at 1 pm, but I accidentally fell asleep for half an hour which made me quite late.. so at 2 pm I rushed to get my stuff printed. Now you see, there’s one print shop at cova squre which is the opposite of my college, and usually I would go to a shop at Sunway Damansara to print.. but I thought why not that day since I was late, I’d got to the one opposite my college.

What a retarded idea.

Not only the person messed up the printing, they were slow as hell.. the woman didn’t even know how to fucking bind stuff.. and actually made the binding holes on the RIGHT side instead of the LEFT side.. WTF! Who flips a proposal open that way?? Unless if you’re in Japan where you read everything from right to left but not MALAYSIA. Even had the nerve to suggest to cut the side? Wtf, the paper will become smaller. They didn’t even check what needs color printing… and the color printing was blurry and it sucks.

So I told them to redo every little retarded mistakes they did.. and I don’t know how much cost they burned lol So what was supposed to take 15 minutes and less turned out to be 1 hour. So when I went there, I had to wait until almost 5 pm for my turn.. and guess what? ALL of our projects got rejected! ARGH. Mine didn’t get rejected THAT much compared to graphic design but they’re still time consuming.. and at least they have 4 days to fix them.. I had less than 24 hours until the FINAL! So 3 days of no sleep.

I’ll blog again about my final project assessment later.

HAPPY EID ADHA! SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILADHA! and HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Chitter Chatter

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Random | Sunday 15 November 2009 4:55 am

I”m in the process of making a new blog.. not a personal blog, this will remain but a movie review blog. I wanted to do some editing for my videos tonight but fuck. I shot quite a lot of stuff on Thursday and yesterday and today when I wanted to capture it, NONE OF IT WAS RECORDED ON CAMERA. WTF! I don’t know how’s that possible because the tape was running, and it says I’m recording and even today it says I have just a few minutes left of my tape which means I was recording but once I playback, NONE. Nothing. EMPTY. I’m pissed. And one shot requires me melting some ice cubes onto a pan, so now I have to fricken freeze some water to make ice cubes again. Gah. I have to reshoot it tomorrow. This sucks.

I’m getting lots of breakouts because of this. I’m too stressed about this final project. Once all of this are done, I need to get an emergency acne treatment asap. Not to mention, my hair is falling out a lot, and I HAVE FRICKEN WHITE HAIRS. Gah!

I’m getting old.

Broke

Posted by Tany | College, Daily Life, Random | Wednesday 11 November 2009 12:02 pm

Argh.

I don’t know why do we need to have to make a graduation showcase. Sure it can be a good exposure but we are supposed to be concentrating on our final project right now, and we have this showcase to stress us all out. Not only that, we have to fork out our own money now. RM250 is not little okay? I’m already broke as fuck right now, I spent all of my money on DSi, and where am I gonna dig up money to pay for that by this Friday? But if I have to budget all my spending, including food, then I wouldn’t be needing diet pill, I can starve myself to be skinny. As if.

However, roughly 3 more weeks then I’m done!… sorta, I still have to come back for 1 more elective subject, I should’ve taken it last semester :\ But all the graduation showcase shit is out of my way.. I don’t feel like blogging anymore, so I’ll continue soon.
