A month of pain and suffering has finally ended. I have submitted and presented my thesis today. YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My friends often asked me, "Why are you always so last minute?" Seriously, I have no idea. Perhaps it is because I had no choice? It seems that the rest of my architect mates are the same too. That is the life of architects? It is not because I want to do things in the last minute but there are just too many things to do. Design is not like mathematics where there is a fixed solution to it. Once you get it, that's it. Design is something that can never be finalised. Changes and improvements can be infinite. So till we are pushed to the limit, we are constantly working on it. The dateline is the limit. As long as we still have the last minute, we will still be working.
This time round, I engaged some help for my model. I am not really proud to say that I got help for my project but I need to give some credits to them. Dear helped me with the site model during the weekends. He could not help me with the actual model as he had to work. Thus, I engaged some "newbies" to help me instead. They are Sicong, Moreen and Junie.
Junie cutting relentlessly in my messy room aka warzoneThe Ape who can't cut for nuts, is eating snake.
YEEEEAAAA!!!!!!!!!! I am really grateful of the help they rendered, especially Moreen and Junie. They spent 2 nights helping me and were deprived from sleeping. Furthermore, their delicate hands were exhausted from all those cutting and marred with glue stains. Junie even stained her white pants which I felt really guilty about. Too bad Sicong could only help out for a day. He was the professional PVC sheet cutter, after wasting half of the sheet though. But still, thanx!!! It is not only the physical help they gave, their company also gave me motivation to work through the nights. Not to forget, Dear who spent 3 weekends to do the site model. Thanks alot peeps!!!! *muackzzzzzzzz*
After two nights of model-making, I was on my own and I finally managed to finish the model. Here's the final product:Re-Housing the Foreign WorkersProposed redevelopment of Jurong Apartments

The crit did not turn out as bad as I thought. My pessimism helped again. I just hope that I will not be selected for the external crit. *fingers crossed*
After crit, I intended to go home and sleep my life away but upon entry into the warzone, I just could not do so. With the energy I had after drinking a can of coke (which is the only meal I had for the whole day), I spent 2 hours clearing up the whole house.
