Forgotten

I've forgotten this space once more. I very much apologise for this. But then again, who really is reading this? *laughs* I've been rewatching my old childhood anime shows while doing work. It's relaxing and fun. Keeps my mind at ease actually.

But there's always this torn decision about my future.

I know...I should explore as much as I want.


Resorting to University would be the best choice for me.

But howw far can I go with it?

Perhaps, I might resume studying after work?

Masters? PhD?

All these confusions. Filling up my void.

And here I am.

Making stuffs I love.

To my man :)

Hello my man :)

You're 21 now, welcome to my club haha! I want to keep this short and sweet. You're the best thing that has ever happened to me and I hope you feel the same way too. You're stronger than you think you are, smarter, wiser and most of all the most loving. You really have been patient with my mood swings and nonsense; despite all that, you still cherish and love me.

And I will too.

Please don't ever doubt that.

Happy birthday and have a wonderful day ahead :3

With much love all the way from London!

Serena.

Admittance

I admit studying abroad is very hard. Nothing else I can add on that. But on a happier note, most of my friends have graduated from their diplomas and now currently working, looking for jobs or even starting up their own freelance workspace. I feel so ecstatic for them! It has been 3 years since we started the design path and they're already graduating. I had a few setbacks with my course but ultimately, I am very close into finishing my first year in degree.

I am excited but scared. Time passes so quickly and before you know it?! You're done with the first year. It's already April. Damn, how much longer?

....

hmmm.

I should start writing my essay now.

I have safely returned home. I feel a lot better now that I know that there's something for me to do this Easter. It gets my design nerves working. I feel so much at peace. It's great to see my family and my boyfriend. My boyfriend picked me up from the airport and I always get this nervous feeling tied inside me after 7 months of not seeing him. Seeing him again set my heart so much at ease and soon we were doing all the things we love. 

I've been reading Designing Design by Kenya Hara and it's absolutely the most brilliant book I have ever read. I am thinking of ideas to work on my next project already! How crazy is that? 

I think this is what I really do love the most about designing. 

When you're not on dead pan pressure and you have control of everything.

Sounds amazing.

Today, I shall spent my day with a nice book, probably head for a nice drive as well (I miss driving) and gonna be waiting for that email from my lecturer.

Ah such is life. 

White space

There's quite a bit of white space.

Hahaha.

Nothing serious. I'm doing an experiment on white spaces. So yes, I shall get used to this. On another note, I have been considering about doing a self shoot. I've been busy. Sorry about that. But I'll soon return. For now, be captivated.

LATE CNY POST

So many things to blog about but I am at a loss of words! I just started my Project 4 and it's looking good so far! Though yesterday and half of today, I am planning out my storyboard for my presentation, updated my PDF with some new visuals and so much more to do! I am currently learning After Effects as well for my presentation. So far, it looks promising but I am still trying to learn :/

But just updates on my CNY! Really quick though :/

On the eve of CNY, I went out for dinner with my dearest flatmates for some nice traditional chinese food. It was scrumptious and filling. I can't believe none of them ever tried LOU SANG before! It was a historical/memorable moment for them and I sense more coming along the way now ;)

There's more to come on my first day of CNY which was so memorable I can cry :') And also on my Valentine's update but maybe once I'm done with my work for today, I might just carry on from here!

Cheers! xx

Paperman

I am proud that Disney was part of my childhood. Partly the reason why I fell in love with Disney is because of their moralistic animations with a hint of laughter, guffaws, sadness, anger, frustration but most of all, magic. There is always something about Disney that makes me laugh, that makes me cry, that makes me feel so much more connected to my inner child.

This short animation was shown before the movie of Wreck It Ralph and I fell in love with it. The story was simple but yet the animatics had such dynamics and core values. The rendering, the animated figures and I love it even more that it's black and white with only a hint of red for the lipstick! I hope one day, I will be able to show my children, my little cousins and what not this beautiful piece that would be passed down for generations :)

I am feeling a little more positive about my project.

I just need to get down to it!
