Happy Halloween!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

To celebrate Halloween every year, I take my sister and one of her friends out to trick-or-treat. I know Australians aren't suppose to celebrate Halloween but it's become a part of our annual tradition.
Besides, we got heaps of loot even without all the Halloween hype :D

There were some VERY generous people. We knocked on the doors of a Shanghainese family who didn't really know about Halloween and trick-or-treating. But after explaining to them (in Chinese of course), they disappeared into their kitchen and came out with a GIANT BAG of 'Sticky' rock candy :D A WHOLE BAG! That must have cost HEAPS. Another man gave us a bag of Snack lollies.
There were heaps of strange 'treats' like lose change, porridge mix, cereal, packet of tissue and so on...the kids were still very happy with the stuff they got though.
Overall, it was a successful trick-or-treating trip.

Oh...and here's a treat for all of YOU who's reading this post.

TADA! 

That's right :D another movie poster (of Will Mak)! Much like Carmel's Bellatrix version. Photography courtesy to Anita who is a great photographer :D. You can check out her photography blog here. I swear...this is one of the scariest photographs I've ever seen. I photoshopped the colours etc of course and added a green-ish tinge to make it spookier. But the shadows and lighting and everything? WOW ANITA WOW.

This photo was taken in my study xD

So yup :) That's all for now.
Have a good sleep everyone.
Time for some horror films!

Doodlings

So here's something that I worked on ages ago but never finished. The first image is the inked version (the one I have on my book) and the second one is the filtered version...the one I edited on Photoshop. I actually like the original better but the scanned version of it looks a little dodgey. 

Nevertheless, here they are to share :D

So I haven't really been blogging much mainly because of uni work. It's so stressful trying to meet the dead lines and having to pull all-nighters just to get them done. I hardly sleep at all nowadays and when I do, it's at horrid hours like 4am in the morning or something like that. 

I have another batch of images from my new design assignment to put up but I won't do it right now. I've updated my online portfolio, which you can see here and I'll continue updating it with my latest work (or as much as I can).

So yup! That's about it for this quick post! 

Don't take sleep for granted!

Update: Working with Metal

Working with metal is such a pain :( and in our course this semester, we're learning how to solder and work with brass/copper/silver/nickel tubes. Did I mention it's a pain?!

But yeah. After the depressing post I made earlier, everything is finally over and I'm fast approaching my mid-semester break. Of course, there's still assignments to do during that small time but it's ALL GOOD!!!

So here's a few pictures of what I've been doing :D

Implosion

The Geometric Labyrinth

(Materials: Balsa Wood, Balsa Rod, Brass Rods, Brass Tubes, Brass Wires)

 Wire Model for Context

(Materials: Brass Rods and Tubes)

Geometric Spatial Configuration through Duplication

via Vectorworks

Yup :D just a brief showcase since I'm so fed up with all the sleep I lost over this. NOW TO GET BACK TO SLEEP :D

Recent Works

AND ALSO THE REASON WHY I'VE BEEN INACTIVE!!!!

Since uni is being such a pain in the behind, I've been getting less and less personal time which means I have less and less chances to update my blog. It's so sad because there's so much happening and I'm learning so much but because I'm tired all the time, I don't have time to document or share these experiences.

Take today for example. I pulled another all-nighter last night to finish off the Design History A2 Poster assignment due today. Why did I leave it until the last minute? Because for the past week and a half, we've been getting loads and loads of assessments and I've literally been working myself like a dog. I haven't procrastinated once since semester began and that's saying something because I'm the Queen of Procrastination (duhhh I procrastinated during the HSC exam period LOL)...

Also, last weekend, we had WEEKEND CAD LESSONS on both Saturday and Sunday so there goes my chance to do assignments...

Anyway, regardless of what results I get and what people think, I'm quite proud of myself for sticking through and doing all this work. So of course, it's only natural for me to document them on my blog :)

FIRST THING'S FIRST! My Interior Models for Design Studio -

 

Just a quick explanation as to what this is: It's a model (maybe scale of 1:200) of an interior space where the spiraling stairs (yes, they are stairs) allow the visitors to explore the interior via its organic movement through the space. 

Please pardon the dodgy men on the model xD they were made from black paper so they're not perfect!!!

Next...

DESIGN HISTORY POSTER!!! - Hats Throughout History

This is the poster that took me 12 HOURS TO DO!! NO SLEEP. NO DINNER. WOW. 

(Side Story: I left home early today so I can print off my stuff at the uni print shop...but because of my all nighter I fell asleep on the train. When I woke up again the train was still moving but I didn't know where I was LOL...turned out I missed Central and the train was going onto another line...epic fail :( )

Alright. That's about it I suppose xD 

Time to do more work >< I have stuff due TOMORROW too *dies*

BUT don't forget to leave me a comment and follow for more madness to come xD

Till next time!

What Have I Been Up To?

Well...a lot of things =D
University started and everything but before I make a post about that, I wanted to share some photos from my Blue Mountains trip with Cindy and Stella AND photos from the Sydney Design Week Exhibition that we did!

I'll just be spamming photos so bare with me =D

TRIP ONE - Lithgow, Blue Mountains (NSW, AUSTRALIA) Echo Point, Three Sisters, Scenic World

 Um...tourists wanting a picture with the natives? 

LOL this is ironic because we're in Blue Mountains (AUSTRALIA) and the asians (us) are the natives and the european guys are the tourists.

 

So a very brief summary of what we did? Bushwalking, rail-track riding, skyway riding?, being asian tourist-y. Yup that pretty much covers it. Oh...and visiting Costco afterwards...BUT FINDING OUT WE NEEDED MEMBERSHIP (60 dollars???). How come no one ever told me about this? D:

TRIP TWO: Sydney Design Week, UTS ISDESIGN + MASTER of ARCHITECTURE Exhibition

 

My Map =D 

The exhibition went very well! The night was really crowded. There were bottles after bottles of free champagne and wine. Unfortunately, Michel and I drank them on an empty stomach so I felt sick the whole night and had to go home before it ended =( So unfortunate.

I know this isn't really a proper post. But at least I've now updated all the things going on with my life >=D!! I'll post a picture of a promotional poster that Cindy, Michel and I collaborated on. Unfortunately it wasn't used but AH WELL.

Till next time!
