New




*Megan's flinghairsaying* So, hi.
Currently I am sitting in McD, sipping coke, andddddddddddddddddd hogging McD's wifi, with one simple reason.





WE FINALLY BID THE OLD HOUSE A SO LONG FAREWELL AUF WIEDERSEHEN GOODBYE, 2 hours ago. Lifting that piano up the lorry is a pain in the arses. There was 5 of us, 1 female mind you, carrying that elephant weight piano up at one go with an old lady yapping away aside using her Physics theory teaching us where and how should we lift. And YUP,we're officially leaving that house, giving the keys to the new owner and no more stepping into the premise andddddddd

NO MORE INTERNET CONNECTION FOR THE COMING ONE/TWO/THREE/FOUR WEEKS DEPENDS ON WHEN WE'RE GONNA GO TMPOINT AND REGISTER A NEW PHONELINE FML.

the next line after this is supposed to be "never mind i still can online @ office".


BUT OFFICE GOT NO WIFI.
*pull hair and cries*
can lah can go online but have to use abang bad's com, stealthily, when he's not around.


Anyway, the new house. It's located in Bandar Menjalara, right beside the recreational park, if you know where. My aunt's tuition centre ( which is where we are staying now by the way ) is some rows behind the main road, right in the middle of that whole shoplot area. ) Logistically worse, for my brother, where Kepong KTM is now like, ass further from home. And same thing will happen to me as well when college starts, soooooo junwinkijunjaypeejulianwhoeverwhoever heh heh heh heh i THINK I might mafan you guys more often already lahhh.

Anyway, the new house.
This is the corridor and the door leads to our room.
The light switch is beside the main entrance, so imagine us running around this corridor just to turn the lights on and off.


and here's the room. sorry that it's a little bit messy. Haven't really settle down yet with stuff flying here there everywhere. and that pile of puzzle on the floor, was sister's past time last friday when she's sick, on MC and I drove the car to work, cause I woke up late.

And oh about that, no fenestration in that room, we can't tell what time it is outside. Dangerous.
But so far so good I'd say.








and brought work home on the first weekend. not really work, work. But a little bit of reading up on Green technology. Got to go to DBKL on Monday. heh. And we ate oreo that day, therefore the "I ATE DENNIS" remark.

It was yesterday when my sister asked me to get to uncle's place to pick up the parcel.
Only when she got it, then she passed it to me and say it's actually for me.


FUCK.NO WAY.




they got me a ukulele. *selftossconfetti*
thxmumthxbrothxsismumumumuaxmuaxmuax.












bring it on KANTOI!




okay Germany scored. *grins*

mengemalu-malu-zibonkskan.

so, day 1 @ MMN.


the dude sitting beside me said hi, I said hi.
Abg. Badrul : So, you dari maner?
Me : (the following line was blurted out of my mouth, not in my mind), "dari maner" as in, tempat belajar ke tempat tinggal?


Yes never fail to embarrass yourself Felix, great.

Abg.Badrul : tempat belajar. ( he didn't even laugh or chuckle.)
Me : owh, Taylors University College.
Abg.Badrul : Dari Petaling Jaya?
Me : ah tak, I tinggal kat Kepong.
Abg.Badrul : ................ *nod and looked away*


WHO THE HELL ASK YOU WHERE YOU STAY CAN LISTEN AND THINK PROPERLY BEFORE ANSWER QUESTION ANOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT.



So, day 2 in MMN,
originally I am supposed to wait for Mr.Mas and he'll bring me to sit in one of his design meeting with his partner today, and it's already 6, he's still talking to the other guy.

So, AbgBad came, and talked to me.

Abg.Badrul : Balik lambat ke hari ini.
Me : Yeah balik ngan bas, ( I heard "Balik ngan bus ke hari ini")

And Abg.Bad walked away.

embarrassment 2.



and oh all this while Mr Mas, WAS TALKING TO THE PARTNER RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY EYES AND I DIDN'T KNOW. So ended up, I waited until 7, just to see Mr.Mas clean up his table and say "I'll see you tomorrow Felix". FML.


Bubububububububububut, MMN is awesome.

post archustic

34 new friends on facebook.
how awesome is that.
one new video, and tonnes of photos newly added as well. thank you so much Ayen for recording the performance. It was fun huh Chooi Si?

After so much rantings and grumbling about the preparation, I actually do miss Archustic.
Archustic was fun, working with the people, getting know new friends, and more new friends.The short guitar jamming sessions.That hey soul sister project. Running around DECTAR(wait that's Dennis), I mean, staying in the control room checking out the lights and stuff, sitting at that long table fire torching perspex, the hamster ball, the jokes we've made, hibernation and hashashas, and of course, the mashed potatoes.


Annoyingly enough, after 5 years of staying in this place, we're finally moving out. Not to say the new place is a better place, and its a temporary one, again, mind you. The packing was hell, the transferring was hell, and the dust. oh my goodness the dust, got me sneezing on and off for hours. Think my nose is going to fall off soon. So everything is set (almost), and after moving you won't be able to see me online for like, maybe...... weeks?
I HOPE MASYERIN GOT WIRELESSHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE
which reminds me,







how the hell am i gonna go to work after i move out of this place.
The new place is like half an hour (walking distance) away from the ktm station. Mr Mas say he won't give us the office key, so we only have to enter the office at 9.30, aunt bro and sis leave to work around 6.30. If I don't follow them I have no idea how am I gonna go work. But if I follow them I am gonna have to loiter around the perimeter of the Curve for like 2 hours before the office opens. FML.

i am bored

wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too bored.
I am so bored I am gonna colorize every sentence with different colors.



Current location : Dectar, UKM.


Day, 6 staying in UKM. And another 5 more days to go.
Masyerin called me the other day, and arranged an interview with me, but he said its for formalities only, I am more or less hired. So, I'll be seeing Stacie everyday at work. and having Ikea meatballs for lunch, almost, everyday.

Self reminder : GET THE SHOWS FROM ADIAN.
apparently UKM wifi speed is the ultimate imba. =)

Archustic camp is starting tomorrow, can't wait to get it over with, with lotsa fun of course.






and Dennis is a racist(his favorite indian color), lol.
I'm out.











of words. bye/

post-hiatus

maybe I should pick up a skill. a non-architecturally-related skill.
maybe it's time to dig out that water color set, hidden deeeeeeeep inside the closet, the colors are all dried out, and I felt terrible for neglecting them.

Anyway hi and ho people, when I'm back means crit's over means studio 3 is over means I am one semester away from completing Diploma. So, studio 3's over, I am happy with the outcome of the project. Since the shrine project, till the site analysis, till the interim and finals and external crits. I've made, a lotsa mistakes. It's by far the most challenging studio for me. Everything happened too fast that the moment I discovered my mistake, or a solution, it's always a minute too late.
I was once lost in searching the right identity for the building, and hell I was lost for a longgggggggggg time. Trying too hard to make the building pretty, trying too hard to find a perfect form, a great concept and what's left behind? The true identity of a religious building, and what a religious building really need. The crit likes everything, but it's just not, a Hindu temple. One sentence, and that's how I (supposedly) failed, as an architect, as a designer.

Consulted a senior about my stuff before, and the way he started the planning is not what I've expected. He started off writing a lot, pointing out the importance and stuff, then from there he moved on to some diagrams, then I looked back to my sketchbook with all plain scribbles of curves and curves and curves, from page 1-24 it's all almost the same thing.Effort spent in 5 weeks scribbling shits has been easily defeated by a 15 minutes diagramming and planning. I TKO-ed.

I need to learn, how to structure a design.
And I hope by interning, I can somewhat pickup different methods approaching a design.





Trip to UKM tomorrow,PAM Camp in less than 15 days. Interning after that.I need to make my holidays worthwhile.
