Another hurdle overcame...

After over 2 months of hard work, my submission is over.

FINALLY.

For those who have no idea what I was doing for the past 2 months, here are some images to give you some idea.











My thesis design project is on the redevelopment of a current foreign workers' dormitory in Jurong West. Too stylistic for foreign workers? That was the comment from a tutor. I thought so too.

Whatever's the case, I just hope to pass this time round. I emailed my tutor to ask how I fare this time and he replied:

"You have worked hard and the panel (tutors) saw it. Please keep well as the day is clear. Enjoy it!"

Is that a hint that I pass? Hmmmmmm.....

I have some people to thank who helped me one way or another in the completion of this project. I really have to thank Dear and Mei for their help this time. Mei came back to help me with the model after her last exam paper and stayed up the entire night. There were moments when the Z-monster was overpowering and I was really discouraged and tempted to simply give up. Mei was there to encourage and push me to finish up the model. She even helped me clean up the mess after we finished everything. Thank you so much Mei!

Of course not forgetting Dear who has camped at my place for a few days. Not only did he had to endure my temper, he also had to be my ah-sam with all the chaffeuring and buying of food. He was responsible of cutting the toughest materials i.e. plastic and he even cut his fingers (for watching TV and cutting at the same time). The lack of sleep and dusty environment caused him to fall sick in the end and he is still sick now. Poor Dear Dear. Thank you so much for being there for me Dear! You are the BEST!!!!! *muackzzzzzz*

And honorary mentions of my good friends - I would like to also thank Sicong who was my MSN companion to keep me awake and entertained and Janet who sent me a SMS to encourage me by telling me that she dreamt that I have kids with Kelvin. Hee. Thank you!!!

Even though submission is over, I still got to work on my portfolio and resume now. *Sighz* I cannot afford to do them in a relaxed pace as one of my aki friends advised me to look for a job as soon as possible. He just got retrenched and said the market is really bad now. It will get worse in January as many companies are announcing retrenchments in December. Thus, I had better find a job real soon. *Sighs* Even if I manage to find one, I guess the job will be shitty. Interesting jobscope with shitty pay v.s. Boring jobscope with High pay. Both cases are shitty.

May the luck be with me again. *prayzzzz*
